chapter 38 How can you be rich and be at ease?

When the ox cart arrived, Li Mingyue didn't say a word, and directly gave him the profit this time.

looked at him with a shocked face, and said, "I know that you need money to build a house, so I will benefit from you first." ”

Gao Sheng sneered: "Why don't you have more fulcrums?" ”

Li Mingyue smiled: "It's okay, but you first ask the subordinates if you can promise the blade in your hand?" ”

Sure enough, it's a good one!

"Coming and going, Zheng Wangfu can only earn half a liter of "fairy water" from the people, and the little lady doesn't regret it? ”

Gao Sheng never understood Li Mingyue's unfathomable calmness.

"Are you content with a penny only?" Li Mingyue asked rhetorically, looking at him with an unfathomable smile.

Gao Shenghui laughed dryly, how could he be a little Fu'an?

He does have a backhand, but now is not the time to tell Li Mingyue, and only by waiting for the price to sell at the critical moment can he seek the greatest benefits.

Li Mingyue is so sure that she only gets half a penny for selling a liter of alkaline water, and Zheng Wangfu should not be poor to this extent.

Despite his suspicions, he didn't bother to dig deeper.

In the hot house construction scene, there was Zhang Dazhu and his wife scheduling, and he couldn't intervene, so after Li Mingyue led the team to leave, he returned to Zhang Dazhu's house and made a pot of salty water by himself.

Put a pot on the shelf, pour in soybean oil, wait for the soybean oil to be fragrant when heated, take out the cinnamon, fennel and other spices bought in the village market last time, put them in the pot and fry them together, until the fragrance of the spices is unusually strong, he turned off the fire and filtered out the residue.

After that, the pure sesame oil is poured into the alkaline water and the distillation continues.

It took several hours to boil the liquid of alkaline water mixed with sesame oil into a paste.

Take the abrasive from which the soap was made last time, pour the paste into the abrasive, press the pattern, and then dry and solidify.

"Not bad."

Gao Sheng sniffed, a faint fragrance hit his nose, and when the paste solidified, it was a simple soap.

Before the soap could test the washing effect, Li Mingyue was swept away as a mooncake, which made him unhappy in his heart.

Of course, the method is in hand, and he does not worry about the making of soap.

Soap is suitable for ordinary people, and the customer base of soap is different, either rich or expensive, and if it runs well, it will be the key to making a fortune in the future.

Moreover, the way of extracting alkali from plant ash is too simple and straightforward, and "fairy water" will give people cottages sooner or later, so take precautions, soap and soap must be prepared, and as soon as it is put on the market, it must be a blockbuster.

Once someone imitates plant ash to refine alkaline water, the remaining alkaline water will be recycled, and soap and soap can also be made to maximize the benefits.

Although the alkali extraction in the plant ash is simple, the output can not go up, a large amount of alkali will be needed in the future, only the limestone mine can provide, there is no one to copy the alkaline water, he is not in a hurry.

Most of his existing funds are used to build houses, and he can only hope that alkaline water can bring benefits for a period of time, and use the money he earns to start the production of soap and soap.

Li Mingyue sent the alkaline water back to King Zheng's mansion, and when several brothers saw her return, they were also anxious to ask her about the next plan of the new shop.

Li Mingyue didn't know anything about doing business, so she could only use Gao Sheng's explanation to ask the brothers, and after some discussion, Zheng Wangfu immediately began the operation of alkaline water.

Zheng Wangfu mobilized various forces in Chang'an City to first build momentum for "fairy water", that is, the wonderful use of spreading alkaline water in the market.

The eunuchs and clan relatives all hummed at the "fairy water", and seemed to be skeptical that the poor things of Erwen could solve the problem of old noodles without being sour.

The problem that the ancestors have not solved for thousands of years can be solved with two pennies?

In addition to ordinary people, the entire Chang'an City's official eunuchs and Zong's families are not very interested in "fairy water".

This thing of alkaline water was not originally sold to dignitaries and nobles, clan relatives and royal families, this is an ordinary thing sold to ordinary people for daily use, clan relatives, official eunuchs, rich and noble families cook and have family members, how can they care about alkaline water?

Li Mingyue asked several brothers to postpone the opening for three days, and used three days to spread the rumors of "fairy water" in the community.

On the third day, the east and west cities of Chang'an City opened, and the shops in the two cities under the name of King Zheng heard the drums of the opening of the market, and as soon as they opened the shop doors, countless ordinary people poured into the outside.

Erwen is not expensive, it is really not expensive, a steel hoe costs 50 yuan, even if you use "fairy water" for only 24 yuan a year, who can't afford it?

No, if you use plant ash to exchange, it only costs 12 wen a year, which can make the old noodles not sour.

Even if you spend two pennies at the moment, buy a liter and try it, even if you are cheated, why not?

There was an endless stream of people who came to buy alkaline water, and when the market closed, all the alkaline water made by Gao Sheng who stayed up all night was sold out.

Li Mingyue was dumbfounded when she got a report from her brother, it was terrible, did the people of Chang'an City use alkaline water as boiling water to drink?

Sixteen large tanks containing 100 liters of alkaline water, in just one day, no, the market opened only half a day, 1,600 liters of alkaline water were all sold out, and the turnover was three times 600 wen.

A few days ago, the plant ash pulled by Gao Sheng was all the plant ash from King Zheng's mansion and other courtyards, and it only cost more than 100 yuan to ask for an ox cart and buy a water tank.

For those who buy salt water for the first time, they don't have enough full-term plant ash at home, so they can only buy alkaline water with two yuan.

Therefore, everyone will pay two pennies for the first time to buy alkaline water, so that both sides of the cooperation can earn one penny, and then the people will bring a month's grass ash to buy alkaline water to halve the profit.

There are nearly 4 million households in Datang, and there are more than 100,000 households in Chang'an City.

Before the city gate was closed, Li Mingyue asked the subordinates to lead the horses out of the city in a hurry, and told Gao Sheng that the "fairy water" was out of stock, and he could get as much alkaline water as he could.

Gao Sheng had already estimated that he and Zhang Dazhu used their spare time to make a large amount of alkaline water.

In the historical data in his mind, Chang'an City had a population of about 900,000 in the early Tang Dynasty, excluding envoys, emperors, eunuchs, clan relatives, etc., 800,000 ordinary people must have it, and it is estimated that there are at least 100,000 households in the city.

Alkaline water is cheap, and it is closely related to the lives of ordinary people, and it is certain that it will be sold well.

Taking precautions, he and Zhang Dazhu were busy burning alkaline water, and in three days, they accumulated 30 anal alkaline water.

After receiving the report of the ministry, Gao Sheng was a little frightened even if he estimated the large amount.

The first batch of alkaline water was sold so quickly, once the use effect came out, then it was still there?

At that time, the people of Chang'an City will buy it, and the demand for alkaline water is ridiculously large, if he and Zhang Dazhu are still making alkaline water, the three heads and six arms are not enough, and they will not let people live?

It is absolutely unrealistic to ask someone to help at present, and the ash extraction of plants and trees is too simple and straightforward, and outsiders can understand how to make it at a glance.

Before there is no one to copy, it is still a commercial secret at this stage, and the later the method can be known to outsiders, the greater the benefits.

Once outsiders know that the method is so simple and a large number of copycats, what money will they make?

Unable to find someone he trusted, he could only ask Tian to write a reply letter and ask the trilogy to take back to Li Mingyue to read.

He lacks an entrepreneurial team like Zhang Dazhu and his wife who can keep business secrets for him.

Now even his four-year-old daughter Gao Yue is using it and helping him burn firewood.

"Aya, tell Yaya the story of the Monkey King."

Gao Yue on the side of Yantai raised his hand to wipe a handful of sweat, and the poor baby, the pot black on his hands mixed with sweat was pasted on his little face, turning into a flower face......
