Chapter 14: The Way to Make Money

King Xin shook his head slightly, stretched out his hand and took out a complaint from his arms, presented it to the emperor, and said, "Brother Huang, look at this!" ”

The emperor was stunned when he saw this, and took it and took a closer look!

It was Cui Guangcheng who denounced Gao Di, the secretary of the Ministry of War, who reported between the lines how Gao Di was corrupt and perverted the law, how to deduct military salaries, how to buy and sell officials, how to retreat from Jinzhou without a fight, and so on!

"How can it be!" The more the emperor looked at it, the more frightened he became, and the more he looked at it, the more angry he became.

"Brother Huang, Liaodong is the important place in the north of my Ming Dynasty, and it is the frontier that blocks the Manchurians, if Liaodong is lost, the Manchus can drive straight down, endangering Shanhaiguan, and the northern Goryeo Peninsula will become an isolated island, and I am afraid that it will be in danger!" King Xin had a worried face and continued: "Brother Chen's suggestion is that Yuan Chonghuan be taken into custody pending trial, and it is not too late to discuss after carefully ascertaining the truth!" ”

"Hmmm! In the words of the king's brother, this matter will be investigated and handled by Dali Temple, you and the king of the west, and the prince of Chengguo will be judged! The emperor's eyes were full of relief when he looked at King Shin.

"Brother obeys!" The letter of the king is colorful.

"Alas! Now there are strong enemies peeping outside, and there are rogue gangsters making chaos inside, and the people are miserable. The Emperor lamented.

"Brother Huang doesn't need to blame himself, in recent years, natural and man-made disasters have been frequent, there has been a great drought in the north, there is no harvest, and the people have no food in their hands, so they will inevitably riot!"

"Isn't it! A few days ago, the people of Qingzhou, Shandong Province changed and smashed the prefect's yamen, but the hateful Qingzhou prefect Zhou Fu abandoned the mansion and fled, which was extremely hateful! The anger that the Emperor had just calmed down was rekindled, and he couldn't help but be in a hurry, and his face was extremely embarrassed.

Seeing this, King Xin hurriedly got up and patted the emperor's back, and comforted: "Brother Huang, take care of your body, don't be angry, Shandong has already dealt with the rebellion!" ”

When the emperor heard this, he stopped and asked happily, "Oh! What should Brother Wang do? ”

King Xin said solemnly: "Now that the officialdom is corrupt, it needs to be fiercely punished, the younger brother is not talented, and the young talents after the general gate are recommended to go to Shandong to quell the chaos, what does the imperial brother think?" ”

The emperor thought for a moment and said, "It seems that Brother Wang has already been selected?" ”

"Yes! Don't hide it from the royal brother, I have already investigated it in detail! ”

"Hmm!" The emperor's face was full of joy, his eyes showed relief, and he said approvingly: "Brother Wang has grown up, and the royal brother will rest assured, it is time to participate in the affairs of the DPRK and China, you can do whatever you want, there is no need to hinder, you have your own imperial brother to support you!" ”

"Then the courtier has trespassed!" Relieved, he smiled and said: "I am ready to let Xu Biao of Zhongshan Wangfu and Chang Wangfu Chang Maung lead the troops to quell the chaos in Shandong, I will go to the northwest for a private visit to Weifu to observe the people's feelings!" ”

"No, no, no!" When the emperor heard this, he waved his hand, "I support the use of Zhongshan Wangfu and Changwangfu, after all, their ancestors opened up territory for the Ming Dynasty, made immortal feats, and made outstanding achievements, although they faded out of the court for many years, but their hearts are still loyal to the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty owes them a debt, but, you Weifu private visits, absolutely not, the people in the northwest are fierce, thieves are everywhere, and the rogue is rampant, and the imperial brother is not worried about you! ”

King Xin's heart warmed, and he said earnestly: "Brother Huang is at ease, the younger brother is just a private visit, and he will not easily set foot in dangerous places, otherwise how can he personally observe the people's feelings?" ”

Seeing that King Xin insisted, the emperor knew the character of this younger brother, so he said solemnly: "It's okay to go, you must bring a brocade guard to accompany you, otherwise I will never agree!" ”

Seeing that the emperor insisted, it was also out of love, King Xin had to agree, so he chatted with the emperor about some family matters, and King Xin got up and retired.

The next morning, the emperor sat on the dragon chair, listed the crimes of corruption and perversion of the law by Gao Di, the secretary of the military department, the deduction of military salaries, and the loss of Jinzhou, and ordered Dali Temple to deal with it strictly, and the case of Gao Di and Yuan Chonghuan was dealt with together.

At the same time, the Zhongshan Wangfu and Changwangfu were enabled, and Xu Biao of the Zhongshan Wangfu was named the general of 'Longwei', and the Changwangfu was Chang Maung's general of 'Huwei', and he commanded the troops to quell the chaos in Shandong.

The court was in an uproar, and among the courtiers, King Pingxi and King Ning resolutely opposed it, and they went up one after another, impeaching the Zhongshan Wangfu and the Changwang Mansion, and the emperor was displeased; At the critical moment, Wei Zhongxian stepped forward and resolutely supported the emperor's resolution.

Among the courtiers, Wei Zhongxian's subordinates saw this, they were impassioned, and vigorously supported Zhongshan Wangfu and Changwangfu, and Pingxi Wang Ning Wang saw that the general trend had gone, so he had to die down, secretly suffocated, and hated Wei Zhongxian.

After the Xinwangfu got the news, the Xinwang gently relieved the tea in his hand, smiled and looked at Li Ruoqi, the deputy commander of the palace guards who was reporting, and said: "In the court, there is a clear and secret fight, and I don't want either side to become bigger and stronger, in order to balance the other party, especially to treat the military, they are sparing no effort to suppress, Zhongshan Wangfu and Changwangfu can get their support, as expected, Pingxi Wangfu and Ningwangfu have been suppressing Zhongshan Wangfu and Changwangfu, and now the military has an odd number, which is what Wei Zhongxian likes to see, The Prime Minister's Mansion will not hinder Wei Zhongxian, but will sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight! ”

Li Ruoqi nodded, and then asked, "The prince has already decided the result?" ”

King Xin smiled silently, and then said: "Li Ruoqi, from now on, you can't be idle, there are a hundred Praetorian Guards in the house, you have to train strictly, don't slack off!" ”

Li Ruoqi hurriedly bowed down and said: "Don't worry, the drill manual you handed over to me, I have already started to implement it, during this time, the Praetorian Guard has improved greatly, and in another week, the second stage of training will be carried out, and within three months, the task assigned by the prince will be completed, so that these boys will be reborn, they have lived too comfortably for so many years, hehe!" ”

King Xin was very satisfied, thought about it and said: "It's still not enough, every night the indoor physical training is extended to the third watch, I will check from time to time, if you find a thief and a slipper, you will be expelled from the King of Xin's mansion, this is my request!" ”

When Li Ruoqi heard this, her neck shrank suddenly, she didn't dare not listen, and hurriedly took the order to retreat!

At this moment, Wang Chengen entered the door and reported: "Lord Wang, the workshop for the production of 'Rose Perfume' has been vacated, and the old slave has updated the equipment according to the drawings you gave, and it can be processed and produced at any time."

Since the last time 'Rose Perfume' was a big hit, Wang Chengen has regarded the production of perfume as the main 'way to make money' in the palace, and his mind has been completely devoted to the work of mass production of 'Rose Perfume', and he is very busy every day!

"Well, you can do it, you have mastered the production process and related technologies, and you can mass produce them, but you must pay attention to confidentiality, the market can only be monopolized by us, in addition, in addition to 'rose perfume', you can also try to make 'lemon perfume', 'jasmine perfume', 'lavender perfume', as long as there are enough raw materials!" King Xin confessed to Wang Chengen.

"Don't worry, the perfume technology is the lifeblood of the palace, if anyone dares to leak the secret, the old slave will pick his skin!" Wang Chengen said fiercely: "Old slave, let's arrange someone to purchase raw materials!" ”

"Wait!" King Xin called out to Wang Chengen, smiled and said, "You can't always let me sell perfume, right?" It's really not good, take back the shop that belongs to the palace on Wangfujing Street, and open a 'perfume' ** shop, what do you think? ”

"Good, good! Wangfujing Street is the most prosperous street in the capital, with many shops and merchants, once our perfume is on the market, it will definitely sell well; In this way, we can sell a large number of 'perfumes' and increase production, anyway, there are many idle houses in the palace, and the old slave will arrange it! Wang Chengen was elated.

"Don't be too happy, after all, 'perfume' is used by some nobles and ladies of the princes and nobles, ordinary women can't afford to consume, it can be said to be a luxury jewelry, sales are limited, and there is no need for mass production!" King Shin reminded.

King Shin shook his head and sighed! Now Wang Chengen is simply a money fan, and he has fallen into the eyes of money; However, what I lack most now is silver, which is easy to earn and quick to spend; How can I earn more money?

In a flash of inspiration, King Xin opened his mouth and said, "Manager Wang, you go and prepare some vegetable oils and alkalis to send to this king!" ”

Wang Chengen asked curiously, "Lord Wang, what do you want these things for?" ”

"Don't ask, it's a business that makes you money anyway!"

As soon as Wang Chengen heard that it was a money-making business, his eyebrows immediately fluttered, and he hurriedly prepared to go!

In the dream, he is not only a college student, but also a "peerless soldier king", as the country's sharpest dagger "dragon soul" soldier king, not only proficient in various special operations, but also familiar with the use of various chemical, physical and electronic instruments.

So, it's too easy to look at common soaps, shampoos, shower gels, and other detergents; The alkali is heated and melted into alkaline water, and then, vegetable oil and alkaline water are heated respectively, and when it reaches about 40 °C, the alkaline water is added to the warm oil little by little, so that the two are evenly mixed together, and stirred for a period of time to form soap.

Finally, the soap liquid is covered tightly, wait for the separation of oil and water, stir again to mix the soap evenly, when the soap appears thick, pour the soap into the mold prepared in advance, wrap it with cotton cloth and place it for insulation, generally it will be demolded in about a day, and then the soap will be placed in a cool place without light, ventilated and dry for storage, so that the soap will be successfully made.

So, King Xin gathered the four women of spring, summer, autumn and winter together, and told the production process and formula of detergents again, and then demonstrated it three times in person, and the four women of spring, summer, autumn and winter mastered it, of course, the production and manufacturing process of shampoo and shower gel is similar, and King Xin explained in detail.

Due to the small production of vegetable oils, after they mastered the production of soap, shampoo and shower gel, Shinoo also explained the method of boiling animal fats and fats from animal skins and meat, which can make ordinary detergents in large quantities.

As a result, the Xinwang Mansion began to purchase a large number of various vegetable oils and alkalis, and the entire Wangfu slave courtyard workers were mobilized and were very busy; Ancient people generally used soap alkali for washing, which can remove oil stains, which is incomparable with soap.

After the four women watched King Xin's demonstration attentively, they immediately danced excitedly, these are all things that girls commonly use and want to love, how not to like it, so King Xin decided to teach them, definitely more effective than Wang Chengen.
