Chapter 152: Soap Whirlwind
The second day, Xingzhou, city.
Xingzhou is Shangzhou, and there are four squares in the city, where nearly 30,000 people live. Although this cannot be compared with the seven or eight hundred thousand people in Chang'an and Luoyang (at this time it was less than one million. But it's not small.
At this time, there were two things in Xinzhou that were very famous, one was iron and the other was porcelain.
At that time, there were two places where porcelain was the most famous, one was the Xing kiln and the other was the Yue kiln. However, his friend Wang Dong has already started large-scale production of porcelain in Jingdezhen, and his fame has gradually risen, becoming the third more famous place for porcelain in the Great Zhou.
Of course, it will replace the other two places later, because the other two places will have less and less porcelain clay.
Because of the steel and porcelain, and Xingzhou is an important place for north-south transportation, it is a necessary road, so this place is very prosperous.
Wu Yanzhi, Yao Kuan and Jiang Shipeng were dressed in civilian clothes, and asked a few subordinates to bring two hundred pieces of soap to sell here.
He saw that this market was much smaller than the market in Luoyang, less than 1/5 at most.
"Lord Wang, look at it, this place is good, why don't you put it here!" Jiang Shipeng said.
"Okay." Wu Yan looked at it, there were similar things sold around here, and there were also soaphorns sold. It is just right to sell soap here.
……
"Look, this soap is a magical thing from overseas, no matter how dirty it is, it will be washed away!
Laugh? You don't believe it, do you? Come, I'll show you! There's a dress here, it's very clean, I'll pour oil on it......" Jiang Shipeng specially selected a handyman who could speak well and demonstrate.
……
"This big businessman, how much is a piece of money, you ask? To tell you the truth, the cost price of this thing is 50 yuan, and today, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, it will be sold according to 30 yuan. Three days later, 100 pieces of money! Never break your word! ”
"It's good, it's good, but the price is a little expensive!"
"You think it's expensive? This big brother, I'll tell you the truth, the emperor and his old people haven't used this thing yet! It's still on its way to the Emperor! If you use it, you can use it before the emperor! ”
At this moment, a merchant in his forties walked over. After taking a closer look at this thing, he said, "If it's a good thing, Lang Jun, I'll cover up as much as you have!" ”
"This ...... That's not going to work! Our shopkeeper said that one person is limited to three yuan! ”
“…… Do I add money to buy the bank? ”
"No way!"
“……”
……
Luoyang.
"Your Majesty, this is a soap from King Donglai, and there are a total of five fragrances. He said that this thing is really convenient for bathing, washing hands, and washing clothes! Almost anything dirty can be washed off," Shangguan Wan'er took soap and showed it to Wu Zetian and the two Zhang brothers.
A few people picked up the soap and smelled it, it was really good.
"How does it work?" Zhang Yizhi asked.
"It's very simple, just wet your hands and rub them together. Your Majesty, I have already asked the palace people to bring the water, and I will show it to Your Majesty! Shangguan Wan'er said.
Then, the maid brought a large copper basin.
"Your Majesty, according to the inscription of King Donglai, this is how it is used......"
"Oh? Let me try it for myself! Wu Zetian became interested.
……
said that in the afternoon of the same day, Wu Zetian personally bathed with this soap, and the feeling was naturally amazing.
"It's great that I can't think of this grandson, I don't know where I came from! It's a shame to let him be outside, I heard that his steelmaking has begun to bear fruit, so why not bring him back? Didn't he want to go to Dengzhou and Laizhou, just let him go. ”
Thinking of this, she hurriedly called Shangguan Wan'er over: "This soap is really a good thing!" This grandson, there are so many ghost ideas, I feel a little inseparable from him, more intimate than these two brothers! Wan'er, quickly prepare it, and reward its palace! ”
"Yes!" Shangguan Wan'er said.
"By the way, you can also use five yuan for this thing, and then reward the two brothers with ten yuan each!"
"Yes."
……
Luoyang, North City.
The place where Wu Yan's servants sold soap was surrounded by water, and people rushed to buy a few pieces to go back. Although it is a limited sale, each person is limited to two yuan, and it has not been sold out by people for a long time.
"Lang Jun, is there any soap for sale?"
"Dude, you're late! It's sold out a long time ago! ”
"It's a pity, it seems that the princess can't be ......"
"There's no hurry, it will be produced in the future!"
"In the future, approximately? I'll go back and tell the princess. ”
"The future is the future, how do I know?"
……
Luoyang, in the mansion of Wu Yan.
Wu Yanping's aunt was very surprised when she looked at the trial sales of the soap sent by the housekeeper. The affairs of the mansion are all in charge of her after Li Yin leaves.
"Someone buys it for 400 yuan?" She asked the butler.
"Don't talk about four hundred Wen, big lady, in the opinion of Yinu, I'm afraid that someone will buy it even if it is four thousand Wen! Those princes and nobles are all asking where this thing is sold!
I heard that there are still people who rushed over from Chang'an to buy this soap! However, Rokuro only sent 500 yuan back, where is it! ”
"Forget it if you don't, I'm not a businessman, Rokuro said, when he comes back, he needs to let someone else produce this thing!" The eldest lady wasn't much excited, she was just surprised! She is now a lady of Yipin, and this is only a few hundred times, and she has not entered her eyes.
"Big lady, I heard that the emperor rewarded Liulang with a palace! In a few months, we will be able to move into the palace! ”
"Oh? Is there such a thing? Where? ”……
"It's the former Daiwang Mansion, which is several times bigger than here!"
"That's good, but it's a pity that this house had to be sold! I haven't stayed long yet......"
……
Xingzhou.
Wu Yanzhi received the reward from the palace, and he was very satisfied when he learned that the emperor had rewarded a palace. I have to be a county king, and I have to live in the palace.
And this is the Acting King's Mansion, which is much more upscale than his current mansion.
"Congratulations to the prince for obtaining a royal mansion, this is the prince's mansion. Lord, I will definitely add the prince soon.
By the way, the prince, that soap is in Luoyang, but it has become a legendary thing. Except for the emperor, several prime ministers, and several princes of the martial family, there are no others! They're all asking where it's sold! Jiang Shipeng said with a smile beside him.
"That can't be helped, those soda ash, still use high-grade glass. This soap, let's produce these first, and then talk about it after returning to Luoyang.
By the way, I made more than 600 yuan here. Leave 300 guan in the house for my meal expenses, and you can take the rest of the more than 400 guan and give it to them!
You, Yao Kuan, and Yufei each have eighty runs, and you can watch the rest! ”
"Thank you for the reward!"
Don't look at 80 yuan, this is equivalent to seven or eight months' salary. Please Baidu "Throw Book Network" Thank you for your support!
