Chapter 7 Uncle Shi, Do You Want Soap?

Next.

"Nephew, are you awake?"

"Let's get the paperwork from the household department."

“……”

Xu Jingzong's voice came from outside the door.

Early in the morning, Xu Jingzong was a little impatient.

Still, it's not surprising.

I was promoted, so I naturally wanted to take office as soon as possible.

The Chang'an Order is very good, but in the final analysis, it is an official position that offends people.

Jiupin Sesame Official, who manages a group of aristocratic power, where can he manage it?

There are not many other things in Chang'an City, and there are especially many nobles.

Therefore, the Chang'an County Order is a chore.

"Squeak."

The door opened.

Then, Zhang Ruoxu bent over and walked out.

"Uncle Shi, why are you in such a hurry?" Zhang Ruoxu bent down to open the door.

It's just too tall.

Reach out and you can touch the tiles.

"Nephew, quickly follow me to the household department, and then go to the official department." Xu Jingzong opened his mouth and said.

"But I haven't had breakfast yet." Zhang Ruoxu muttered, as if he had forgotten that most people in this era only eat two meals, so breakfast will be later.

"By the way, Uncle Shi, what do you think of this thing?" Zhang Ruoxu took out a small cardboard box and opened it.

Inside the box is a soap.

This small box is naturally a white cardboard box made by Zhang Ruoxu last night, without a single text symbol.

The white chubby soap lay quietly inside.

"This is ......" Xu Jingzong showed a trace of doubt on his face, took it and looked at it, then took a bite and ate it.

Soon, his brows furrowed.

"The taste of this steamed bun is a little unpalatable, it looks like mutton fat, but it ......"

The taste is really hard to describe.

"What a fierce man!" Zhang Ruoxu couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

You don't even know what it is, but you dare to eat it.

Tough.

"Uncle Shi, this thing is soap, it's pancreas." Zhang Ruoxu said with a smile.

"What? Vomit~" Xu Jingzong hurriedly threw away the soap in his hand, and then vomited.

It turned out to be pig pancreas, which is disgusting.

The most primitive soap used by the ancients for bathing was pig pancreas, and only the nobles could afford it.

Zhang Ruo's eyes were quick, and he grabbed the soap in his hand.

Haha laughed: "Uncle Shi, don't worry, this is still very different from pancreas." ”

"This thing is not made of pancreas, but is boiled with lard, plus some medicinal materials of my Taoism, the cleaning ability is stronger, and after cleaning, there is a faint aroma on the body." Zhang Ruoxu smiled and said, "Uncle Shi thinks that if we make only things, how much is the value?" ”

"Huh?"

Xu Jingzong, who was vomiting, frowned slightly, and then said: "Nephew, you and I are scholars, how can we do that businessman's thing?" If people know, wouldn't it be ridiculous and generous? ”

"This kind of thing, just let your subordinates do it, and the scholar must not be able to do the business thing."

Hearing Xu Jingzong's words, Zhang Ruoxu secretly scolded hypocrisy.

Isn't this being a bitch and setting up a chastity archway again?

Shameless!

But think about it, the businessmen of this era are still lowly in status.

Even the samurai didn't want anyone to know about their business experience, let alone anyone else.

Shinong businessmen, businessmen and merchants came last.

"Uncle Shi, how much do you think this thing is worth?" Zhang Ruoxu asked.

"Then you have to try the effect to know, Xu Yi, you go and get a basin of water." Xu Jingzong said to the slaves beside him.

The other party responded.

Hurry up and get a basin of water.

Then, Xu Jingzong got his hands dirty.

Washed it up.

A minute later.

"This thing does have a miraculous effect, it is much cleaner than pancreatic washing, and it also has a lot of aroma!" Xu Jingzong's face was full of smiles: "This thing is very useful!" ”

"How much is it worth?" Zhang Ruoxu asked again.

"If you can sell it, you can get ten taels of silver." Xu Jingzong said.

"So much?" Zhang Ruoxu was secretly surprised.

Ten taels of silver!

In the Tang Dynasty, a tael of silver was about 37 grams.

Even if it is 30 grams of sterling silver, one gram of silver is more than three yuan.

Ten taels of silver is nine hundred.

Can a soap sell for 900 yuan?

Damn, this is going to be rich!

Ten taels of silver for a tael of gold, and the price of gold was two hundred and sixty-one grams.

Exchange it for gold and take it back to modern times and exchange it for RMB, that is more than 7,800!

Even if it is not pure, it will cost more than 7,000 yuan.

The two-yuan soap was sold to Datang, which was more than 7,000 yuan.

Why is it so cheap?

Because there are no middlemen to make the difference!

"Virtuous nephew, you don't know, the most important thing in Chang'an City is the nobility, and the nobility is the least lacking is money, if you can mass-produce this thing, it will only take a few years, and you will definitely be a rich family in the Tang Dynasty." Xu Jingzong's eyes lit up.

In addition to liking power, this guy is money.

"But how much does it cost?" He asked.

Zhang Ruoxu thought for a while and said: "All kinds of materials, plus the labor of boiling, the cost of a piece of soap is only about six taels of silver." ”

Naturally, he wouldn't tell this guy about the fact that one piece of soap is two pieces of five.

"I bought it for ten taels of silver." Xu Jingzong showed a bright smile on his face and said, "You are a nobleman, how can you do such a businessman's thing and spread it out to add jokes." ”

"My Xu family is also a scholar in Gaoyang, so in Chang'an City, there is a shop of its own, which is in Dongshi."

"You're new to the city, and if you want to sell what you're holdings, I'm afraid it's a little difficult."

"And as a nobleman, the guild will make people laugh."

“……”

Xu Jingzong gushed endlessly.

Such a good opportunity to make a fortune can't be lost.

Living in Chang'an is not easy.

Especially for officials like him, there are many people who participate in entertainment and the like.

And as a literati, I like to call friends to visit Qinglou the most.

If you don't have friends, let alone a Chang'an order, I'm afraid that you won't be able to sit still.

So, it takes more money.

Xu Jingzong's official position is not high, so his income is not high, if it weren't for the support of a shop, he would have been unable to eat for a long time.

Datang's Yulu really can't afford to support a family.

"This one does." Zhang Ruoxu thought for a while and said, "However, I want cash, I want gold!" ”

"Why?" Xu Jingzong's face was puzzled: "Now because of the lack of silver and gold, there is a phenomenon of expensive copper, why don't you want cash?" ”

"I love gold." Zhang Ruoxu smiled and said.

I can't tell you that in my world, the prices of copper, silver, and gold are different from yours, right?

What's more, one or two pieces of silver have always been money, and it is estimated that they can only be sold as scrap iron and art, and it is estimated that they may not be able to sell it in a year.

A Kaiyuan Tongbao is a dollar, and it really can't be sold.

"Yes." Xu Jingzong shrugged his shoulders and said, "However, your goods are only allowed to be sold by my Xu Mansion." ”

"No problem." Zhang Ruoxu smiled: "However, I don't have any money on hand, and I need to buy a lot of materials, you see?" ”

"Xu Yi, go to the account room and get ten taels of gold beads for the virtuous nephew!"
