Chapter 6: The Black-Hearted Merchant
Looking at the small porcelain vases one by one, Chen Shou fell into deep thought again.
Spice essential oils are made, but how to sell them, especially how to promote them.
The most important thing is to be famous, otherwise it will be worthless to rot in this small courtyard.
In this era, there is no TV network, and even if you have it, you don't have the money to advertise, and you can't move it while guarding the gold mountain, so you can't help but sigh for a long time.
It's a pity that in this era, there are no stars, and there is no spokesperson to be found...
Huh, celebrity?
Chen Shou suddenly thought that if the diners in the restaurant were to say, this Drunken Moon Lou girl Xue would ask for a thousand taels of silver when she saw her, and the people she made friends with were either rich or expensive, so she was not the best candidate.
These people are contemporary female stars.
Drunken Moon Building or something, isn't it Qinglou, Chen Shou was still a little nervous when he thought about it.
"Chen Fu, you go wash your face and follow me to a place."
"Are you going to eat roast chicken?" Chen Fu asked excitedly.
"Chicken, chicken, you know chicken, hurry up and wash your face."
Chen Fu went to wash his face, Chen Shou looked up and down, this kid was dirty, I don't know how long he hadn't taken a bath, so he was still going to talk about business? I'm afraid that I won't even be able to enter the gate of the Drunken Moon Tower.
Chen Shou glanced at the porcelain vase in his arms, as well as the bulging purse, which was full of silver.
"That's it, I can't show this bit of courage yet, so I can't talk about making money."
Chen Shou gritted his teeth, took his nephew, first came to the tailoring room, bought two knitting clothes, and spent ten taels of silver.
Chen Fu's distressed eyes were red, and when he went out, he held his clothes in both hands and walked carefully.
Chen Shou himself also asked for a well-fitting robe, a brocade belt around his waist, and a hairpin in a bun. People rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, and Chen Shou wears this dress, and he looks more and more handsome and extraordinary.
Chen Shou gave him a kick, "What's the blame, give me a good walk." ”
The two of them came to the perfume shop, which is later known as the bathhouse, and paid a few pennies to wash it clean.
In this perfume shop, in addition to a large pool, there are also bath beans.
Pinching feet, rubbing back, and beating legs are all available. The Han people's love for bathing began as early as the Spring and Autumn Period, and there are many records in the Book of Poetry.
Xu Shen of the Eastern Han Dynasty also recorded in his "Shuo Wen Jie Zi": "Bathing, sprinkling the body; Wash, sprinkle feet also; Take a bath and sprinkle your hands too. "In the Han Dynasty, the government set some holidays for bathing, "five days off to bathe, also known as rest". That is, after five days, everyone has to go back to take a shower. When it came to the Tang Dynasty, it was changed to ten days, which was called "Huhuan Day".
When they came, it was not the most lively time, there were not many people in the pool, Chen Shou took Chen Fu to take a soak, refreshed, and comfortable.
Putting on new clothes, Chen Fu went to fold his old clothes, and was thrown away by Chen Shou, "Keep this thing for nothing, you don't have to wear it in the future." ”
Chen Fu looked at his new career, excited and distressed, and said with bared teeth: "Second uncle, this is too expensive, in our village, it can't cost so much money to marry a daughter-in-law." ”
"You carry the little porcelain vase on my back, and stand behind me in a while, don't look at it, don't talk nonsense, you know?"
"Got it."
Chen Shou nodded with satisfaction, and at this time a carriage stopped, and the groom who drove the carriage asked with a smile: "Two masters, where are you walking, where are you going, you can say it, the villain will take you there, just reward some hard work." ”
Big cities are different, you can take a taxi, Chen Shou smiled: "Okay, how much does it cost to go to Zuiyue Tower?" ”
"It turns out that Childe is going to Drunken Moon Building to be happy, this road is not far, Childe just give Shiwen."
Shiwen is really not expensive, Chen Shou nodded, the uncle and nephew got into the carriage and came to a quiet alley, although it was not time to hold the lamp, the courtyard of each room could still waft out a strong aroma of fat powder and the sound of silk and bamboo.
Along the way, I learned a little about this drunken moon building, which was opened by an old bustard named Su Le, and it was really a golden nest.
In the city of Liangzhou, how many dignitaries and dignitaries are spending money here.
But looking at the appearance, this drunken moon building is more like a academy, with pink and white walls, blue bricks and blue tiles, and anyone can say that it is an elegant place.
As soon as the two of them entered the door, a turtle man wearing wool pigskin boots and a green scarf came to greet the guests.
"Two sons, please inside."
Although Chen Shou had never been to such a place, he was not stage frightened, he casually threw out the last piece of broken silver, "Don't be noisy, call your old bustards quickly." ”
The turtle who received the reward smiled cheaply, nodded and said, "The two masters, please, the little one will call you." ”
At this time, it was not yet night, there were not many guests in Zuiyue Tower, Chen Shou found a random place to sit down in the courtyard, and Chen Fu behind him was really obedient, looking down at his toes, and didn't say a word.
Chen Shou put his mind at ease, this old bustard ushered in and sent him, the same as the human spirit, he would definitely be ridiculed and looked down upon by her if he showed a little timidity, and it would be difficult for him to do his business at that time.
"Hey, two sons, but I haven't come for a day, and I want to die." A woman dressed in a pink light gauze holds a champa in her hand, talking and waving it over and over again.
As soon as she saw Chen Shou, her eyes lit up, "What a handsome little Langjun, I don't know which girl I have made an appointment, I am blessed." ”
As for Chen Fu, she was automatically regarded as a little scholar.
Chen Fu lowered his head and disagreed, "Second Uncle and I are obviously here for the first time..."
However, Chen Shou didn't let him speak, he was afraid that he would ruin the second uncle's big thing, so he didn't ask.
Chen Shou smiled and dodged the woman's arm, "Forget it, girl, bother my mother to find us a Yaxuan, let's have a drink." ”
The woman was a little surprised, and then smiled and said, "The little boy is not big, but his taste is tricky, and he also knows our benefits?" But when the slave family looks at you, it feels familiar, and it is not shallow to think of fate, since this is the case, please come with the slave family. ”
After speaking, his waist twisted slightly, and he led the way with a smile.
Chen Shou swallowed his saliva, turned around and told Chen Fu to make tea here, and then took a small porcelain bottle and put it in his arms.
Su's mother was already in her thirties and no longer accompanied guests, but today, this young man is really handsome, and she made an exception to agree.
As soon as she sat down, Mother Su approached with a smile and was pushed away by Chen Shou, "Mother Su, you Drunken Moon Building, you must be making money every day, right?" ”
Mother Su's expression moved, and she was secretly vigilant in her heart, and raised her eyes as if she smiled: "What do you mean by this?" ”
"I heard that in the Fengyue Land of Liangzhou, it is our Zuiyue Building that has the best business. I have a way to make money faster, but I don't know if Su's mother is willing to make it. ”
"Gold and silver, it's annoying to look at, but no one can do without it. However, there is some money, but the slave family would rather starve to death than touch it. ”
"Mother Su rest assured, it is absolutely safe and clean."
Mother Su's expression moved, "Mingren doesn't say secret words, since Gongzi has said this, why don't you be honest and say it directly." ”
Chen Shou took out a small bottle from his arms, and after opening it, the aroma was strong.
Mother Su looked at the pale yellow and transparent spice essential oil, her eyes were shining, and she asked, "What is this?" ”
"When taking a bath, just one drop can make the girls of Drunken Moon Building full of fragrance. How is it, is Su's mother interested? ”
"How much does Childe offer?"
"Hehe, I'm not going to sell it to you, but I want you to be my agent in Liangzhou City, buy from me, and sell it to us."
Mother Su rolled her eyes and said, "Son, are you a little greedy, since you are doing business and squeezing us who have a thin life, your heart is also ruthless." ”
She said that she wanted to cry, and her charming appearance was natural, which made Chen Shou unbearable.
Damn, fox, it's really a professional.
"Mother Su, what I'm talking about is that you take seventy percent."
"It's a deal!"
Su's mother couldn't wait to say.
Chen Shou looked at her with a happy eyebrow, and smiled secretly in his heart: These ten bottles are all advertising fees, I will first develop dependence on you, and when you make me famous, you can't do without my essential oil, and then sit on the ground and increase the price, not to mention Sanqi, you have to buy it too. When the time comes, it will be the price, and even your family business will be collected for you.
The feeling of monopoly is cool!
