"I can only guarantee that the formula will not be divulged from my end, but I can't ensure that I will be the only one in the world who can make soap. If someone else figures out the formula on their own, then there's nothing I can do about it," Ye Jiu said.
"That's not a problem, as long as it's not leaked from you," Liu Yunqing said.
Liu Yunqing was a very cautious person, so after reaching an agreement with Ye Jiu, they also signed a contract.
The contract clearly stated that Huarong Pavilion would purchase all the soap produced at the price of two hundred wen per piece. If there was any interruption, they would compensate Ye Jiu with a thousand taels of silver.
However, if the formula for the soap was leaked from Ye Jiu and it impacted Huarong Pavilion's business, then a compensation of a thousand taels of silver to Huarong Pavilion was required.
