Jingle bell.

Morning.

There was a busy voice in Chen Chu's thatched hut.

Chen Chu squatted on the ground, busy with his work, and hummed a song in his mouth: "With your fiery red lips, let me be endlessly ecstasy in the middle of the night......"

Bang.

The door was kicked open.

Chen Chu was startled.

A turn back.

I saw Li Er standing at the door menacingly.

followed by Cheng Chumo.

Chen Chu asked curiously: "Oh, Lao Li, Cheng Aniu, do you know each other?" ”

Cheng Chumo nodded and whispered, "This ...... This is our shopkeeper's ......"

Chen Chu looked at Li Er and said with a big grin: "Lao Li, your business is quite big, you can invite so many bodyguards, tsk...... Hey, you're still holding a sword, what's the matter, you've changed your sword practice? You shining, I'm afraid it's a silver sword! It's not that I'm talking about you, you're so fat that I'm afraid I'm just choking ......"

Li Er clenched his sword.

I can't take it anymore.

Shaft!

It's not a pity to die!

Swish.

He raised his sword and was about to strike.

But Chen Chu suddenly took out a palm-sized milky white thing from behind him, and asked with a smile: "Lao Li, do you want to make money?" Do you want to get rich? ”

Money!

It's a word that has a magical power.

Li Er's movements stopped instantly.

It turned out that during this period of time, Li Er's heart was broken because the inner treasury was empty and the treasury was tight.

When you talk in your sleep you sleep, you will talk about money.

The dignified Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is really short of money.

Lack of money, Empress Changsun planned to secretly send someone to take out some of the good things in the palace that were paid tribute from all over the palace and sell them to raise money.

Li Er paused, and subconsciously asked, "Do you have a way to make money?" ”

Chen Chu pointed to the thing in his hand and said, "This thing can make money!" ”

Li Er took it and looked at it carefully, only to feel that the thing was fragrant, and it was a little silky in his hand.

But I've never seen it!

He handed it over to Cheng Chumo.

Cheng Chumo looked at it, sniffed it, and said, "Your Majesty...... Shopkeeper, I think, this thing is edible, it's too fragrant. ”

As he spoke, he took a bite, chewed a few times, and suddenly his face changed greatly.

It turned out to be spicy.

Cheng Chumo hurriedly spit it out, and looked at Chen Chu sadly: "Brother Chen, this thing is too unpalatable." ”

Chen Chu couldn't cry or laugh, "This thing is not for eating at all." ”

Li Er asked curiously, "What does that do?" Why make money? ”

Chen Chu pointed to Cheng Chumo's clothes, took two steps back, and asked, "Cheng Aniu, you haven't washed your clothes for a few months." ”

Cheng Chumo said proudly: "Brother Chen has good eyesight, my clothes haven't been washed for five months. ”

Chen Chu: "......"

Boy!

The clothes on Cheng Chumo's body should have been cyan.

It's almost black now.

The dirt on the clothes has become one with the clothes.

Chen Chu asked, "Do you think this dress can still be washed?" ”

Cheng Chumo shook his head.

People in this era wash clothes, mainly by pounding, and vigorously perform miracles to pound out the dirt in clothes.

Or just add soap, plant ash and the like.

But the effect is limited.

Clothes that are too dirty, and nothing can be done.

Chen Chu smiled: "Next, it is the moment to witness the miracle." ”

He asked Cheng Chumo to take off his clothes, throw them into a wooden basin, and after releasing the water, put the things that Cheng Chumo had bitten into them and soak them for half an hour.

Then let Cheng Chumo rub it by himself and pass it a few times with water.

Wait until the clothes are wrung out.

Cheng Chumo and Li Er were both taken aback.

The clothes that were originally dirty and could no longer be dirty turned out to be clean and restored to their original appearance.

Cheng Chumo was even more surprised: "Shopkeeper, look, the clothes have become clean, and there is a fragrance!" ”

Li Er sniffed it, and sure enough.

Chen Chu introduced on the side: "This thing is called soap, which can not only be used to wash clothes, but also to bathe...... The fragrance can last for two or three days, and this palm-sized piece, used for bathing, can be used more than a dozen times, Lao Li, you say, how much can you buy? ”

Cheng Chumo stared at the remaining soap with burning eyes, and said, "Sell it to me, I am willing to bid fifty times." ”

Li Er thought for a while, and muttered: "I have never seen this thing, not even Chang'an City, and the miraculous effect is amazing, if it is sold, fifty yuan a piece, but it is not expensive...... Wait, you're going to sell soap? However, if it is too expensive, ordinary people cannot afford it. ”

Chen Chu laughed: "I didn't plan to sell it to ordinary people...... There are rich people in Chang'an City, many rich people have a lot of money, but they have nowhere to spend it, sell it to them, it is just right, this piece of soap, the cost is only a few dozen yuan, you say, can this business be done? ”

"How much?" When Li Er heard this, he was so excited that he stammered.

Chen Chu repeated: "The cost does not exceed fifty wen. ”

Chen Chu was actually not satisfied with this cost.

The manufacturing principle of soap is not complicated, and the process is simple.

But because of backward productivity, there is no assembly line production and other things, and the cost is a little higher.

In the future, there will be a large number of familiar craftsmen and mature craftsmanship, and the cost will decrease.

As everyone knows, the cost of fifty wen has already scared Li Er stupid.

Fifty wen costs, sells fifty yuan.

It's a book of great profits!

It's a money grab!

Li Er's heart was moved.

What he lacks most now is money.

If this soap really sells well.

Not to mention making up for the deficit in the inner treasury, at least it can also increase the income of the inner treasury.

In fact, Neiku has always had a business.

For example, there are a few cloth shops and a few porcelain shops in Chang'an City, which is the business of the inner library, but unfortunately, the business has not been very good.

But this soap gave Li Er hope.

He knew that even the things that he was tempted to, those rich people who had money, would definitely not be able to help but buy them.

Li Er looked at Chen Chu and asked, "But why are you looking for me?" ”

Chen Chu said: "If I have the ability, of course I will make my own money, but unfortunately, I am now penniless, and I have no manpower, and I don't know anything about business, so how about we cooperate, soap business, two partners, I give the secret recipe, you contribute money and efforts, and the profit is divided into 28." ”

Twenty-eight points?

And such a good thing?

When Li Er heard this, he was a little embarrassed: "I account for eighty percent, you account for twenty percent, little brother, you are really righteous." ”

Chen Chu's eyes widened and he patted Li Er's shoulder: "Lao Li, what are you thinking about?" What I'm saying is, I'm eighty percent, you're twenty percent. ”

What?

This time, Li Er was stunned.

He shook his head resolutely: "No, why, I will contribute money, people, and efforts, and you will only contribute a prescription, and you will account for eighty percent?" ”

Chen Chu said confidently: "In the whole world, only I can make this soap." ”

Li Er was a little angry.

He's the Emperor!

How have you ever been blackmailed like this!

Li Er gritted his teeth and said, "Divide it in half." ”

Chen Chu's attitude was also very resolute: "Impossible! ”

And confidently said: "I can give you a few pieces of soap, you can take it and ponder it, if you can get the secret recipe, I don't want a penny." ”

Li Er's eyes lit up.

That's a solution!

The palace is full of skilled craftsmen from all over the world, and you may be able to come up with the secret recipe.

He sneered, "Okay, don't regret it then!" ”

Chen Chu pursed his lips and didn't care.
