In the middle of summer, the weather became more and more intense, and Li Qian felt that there was not enough ice.

The weather is hot and the sun is scorching, so he has been even more lazy to go out recently, so he simply lies at home and does not move, and even Xiao Zhu's several visits are closed------

However, it was Yang Qing who came to the door today, and Li Qian naturally wouldn't have trouble with money, so he let him in.

The soap business officially opened a few days ago, but Li Qian really didn't do anything, not even on the opening day, he was only relieved to be his major shareholder and shopkeeper, and waited for the time to count the money------

Shen Tianyou didn't come this time, Li Qian thought he was still grounded, and after casually asking, he learned that it wasn't like that at all, but he simply didn't dare to come to him again.

"Why is that?" Looking at Yang Qing with a strange expression, Li Qian wondered.

"What do you think, he has seen you twice recently, and he has been subjected to family law when he goes back, how dare he come?" Yang Qing said and glanced at him quickly, and said with emotion: "If you want me to say, you little couple are really enough to be pitted, it was your future wife who went back to the Li family to complain, and it was replaced by your ------ after the Duanyang Festival."

"Uh------"

Li Qian was stunned for a long time, and it was easy to recall the last time, but now that he thinks about it, isn't it Lin Qiuyun who fell behind Yang Qing and the others at that time? Strictly speaking, she should have arrived a long time ago, but she almost let Shen Tianyou bump into her------ so that it would make sense, Zipei told herself that she had a strange remark when she came to the door.

Thinking of this, Li Qian couldn't help laughing, and said in his heart that the daughter of the Lin family was born in a scholarly family, and she looked like a serious, quiet lady, but she didn't want to have such a brutal and willful side, but she seemed more down-to-earth.

Since learning her true identity, Li Qian has become less anxious.

This is not wrong, they are already their fiancées, and they are still in a hurry------ although men must also know how to fall in love with their daughters-in-law, but after all, the two of them are destined to be tied together in this life, and it is difficult for either party to change the matter by their own will.

Li Qian has a deep understanding of this, don't say that it is Lin Qiuyun, that is, he wanted to withdraw from the marriage, but he was strongly opposed by his father, which shows how stubborn the concept of the ancients is------ of course, he also absolutely believes that if he insists on opposing this family business, he still has a great certainty that he can succeed. After all, after encountering difficulties with those emotional matters, he only thought about the difference between the young scholar who eloped with his lover.

As for Lin Qiuyun's choice to withdraw from her family, in Li Qian's view, it is only a hypothetical situation that is impossible at all. It's just that he didn't think about meeting the other party again, not because of the so-called "etiquette defense".

In fact, as early as last month, the door of the county government told Li Qian that on the day of the conflict between him and the Qian Dian, a maid dressed as a small maid came to the county government to look for him------ Li Qian thought about it carefully, there were few of his "old people", and even fewer people with maids around him, and ------ dressed as a small maid, this seemed a little eager to cover up.

Imagine, if it were an ordinary man, even if he asked the maid to pass the word on his behalf, it would not be like this, and only the ladies who would bring a lot of inconvenience to travel would do this------

After that, the reason why Li Qian didn't send someone to Lin's house to reply to the letter was mainly because he felt that he had been deceived by the other party and was too faceless, so he deliberately pretended not to know that the other party had come to visit him------ he was busy fighting with the Qian Warden at the time, and it was common sense not to reply after that, anyway, it was not a big deal.

However, what he didn't know was that because of Qinglou's teasing of Liu Ruyan, he had already knocked over the vinegar jar------

Suing Shen Tianyou's black state, Li Qian just made a joke that was not too big or small, it was harmless, and I believe that the other party would not really be angry about it, otherwise Yang Qing's narration at the moment would not be so relaxed.

After chatting a few words, the two of them got to the point, looking at Li Qian and smiling mysteriously.

"Big boss, guess how many pieces of soap we have sold in just a few days so far?"

"We only have one store for the time being, if we can sell forty yuan a day, I can calculate ------" Li Qian frowned slightly, narrowed his eyes slightly, pinched his fingers and calculated: "Today is the sixth day, counting today, it should be four, six and two hundred and six------ well, it's already afternoon, I guess, what's the matter, it's two hundred and fifty yuan, right?" Right, two hundred and five? ”

“------”

Yang Qing originally wanted to correct him, and asked him who taught him arithmetic, but suddenly felt that there was something wrong with this------ pondered for a long time before he realized that daring to lover was hurting himself, and couldn't help but cast a resentful little look at him, and said angrily: "You are only two hundred and five!" ”

"So, how much did it sell?" Li Qian changed the subject.

"Guess ------" As soon as he mentioned the matter, Yang Qing's face was full of excitement, he completely forgot about the topic of Fang Cai, and concentrated on selling Guan Zi to him.

"Two hundred and five doubled, two two hundred and five?"

"Yes, it's just two hundred and five, me and you!" Yang Qing finally found an opportunity to fight back.

"------ it's you and Shen Tianyou, right?"

"Actually, you guessed that it was almost the same, and when I left the shop, I counted that we sold a total of five hundred and eighty-two pieces of soap! That's equivalent to selling almost 100 yuan every day! Six days, a full 600 yuan! ”

The initial price of the soap is two taels, which is the same price as the pancreatic soap on the current market, which is neither high nor low.

It's not really about random pricing. Although the current price of rice in Jiangnan is about one tael per stone on average, in these years, the positioning of pancreatic soap is a luxury item for high-ranking officials and nobles, and it really cannot be measured by the price of rice.

A tael of silver and a stone of rice?

Not to mention anything else, just the ice cubes used by large families in summer, the cost of two feet long and wide is one or two silver, can ordinary people afford to use it?

The price of soap is two taels of silver, but the cost is not high, and it does not even account for one percent of the price. In other words, in just six days, Li Qian, the major shareholder, has earned more than 500 taels, which can be described by the word "windfall profit"?

Of course, this is only the frenzied stage of opening the market in advance, and the rich people in this year are also only a minority. After the first month, the sales volume will slowly decrease, and if you can sell about 20 yuan a day, it will be considered a good business.

But despite this, the speed of making money is still very impressive.

Imagine, due to the need to control the cost, and even for the future sales to increase the consideration, the soap itself is not big, a small piece can be used for three months to half a year at most, which depends on the frequency of use by the user and whether a single piece is used by a single individual.

Then there are more than 100,000 households in the two counties under the jurisdiction of Hangzhou Prefecture alone------ not counting those who conceal the report.

These 200,000 households, if they are only roughly divided according to the rule of 28, there are 40,000 households above the middle level! Subtract it by half, and there are still about 20,000 households that can afford to use soap, as for the so-called "radish greens, each has his own love", at least it will not work with Li Qian.

After all, soap is his monopoly business, and after a lot of business, after becoming famous, there should not be many people who are still unwilling to pay money to buy it, at least this is a kind of comparison between rich people.

Think about it, on average, tens of thousands of soaps can be sold every three months, how scary is this scene------ of course, Li Qian also knows that this is difficult to achieve, not because it can't be sold, but because productivity is limited.

If you want to speed up the production of handmade things, there is no other way than to increase the number of people.

But for the sake of confidentiality, every aspect of production cannot be disclosed on a large scale, otherwise in a few months, this monopoly business will not be done------ Li Qian has never dared to underestimate the innate "learning" ability of Chinese people!

Therefore, if you want to make a living for three or two years through this business, you can only keep the production method and recipe strictly confidential.

Of course, the formula is unique to the majority shareholder, but the production process should be carried out separately, it is you who plough the field to weave cloth, I carry water to you to water the garden, division of labor and cooperation. Moreover, the workers who learn the production process must be carefully selected, and the people who use them must be honest and reliable, and they cannot be easily bought.

In short, it is inevitable to get rich by relying on this business, and it is still difficult to determine what difficulties will be encountered in the later expansion of the scale.

However, Li Qian understands a truth, blocking people's financial paths is like killing their parents, and peers are enemies and enemies! People who have a competitive relationship will usually look for trouble for you because of red eyes, which is almost expected in advance.

Thinking of this, he casually asked: "By the way, there are a few shops that sell pancreas in Fucheng now. ”

Yang Qing thought for a while and said: "This kind of business has always been occupied by powerful people, and there were still a few local tycoons in the business, but since the Zhao family in the south of the city entered this business, they have all been squeezed out. After that, if they still want to operate in the city, they must buy from their Zhao family's shop, otherwise they will be stopped by the government with the brand of unscrupulous goods, and those who do not listen to the advice many times will even close your shop------"

Li Qian secretly smacked his tongue when he heard it, and said in his heart that the collusion between officials and businessmen in these years would be so rampant? Once a monopolized commodity emerges as a competitor, it can be directly branded as a counterfeit and shoddy product through the government?

This Zhao family is really weighty------

"Then after we opened, how did the Zhao family react?"

"After the opening, there was no ------" Yang Qing shook his head and said: "Earlier, I dredged up the relationship between the county government, but there were many obstacles, and even the name of the Shen family let me move out, but it didn't have much effect." Otherwise it wouldn't have taken so long to open until ------ other day"

He didn't say anything more about the rest of the words, but Li Qian understood it.

It should be that after Wang Zhixian rose up, the household in charge of many affairs in the county changed hands, so that no one dared to get stuck in his soap business anymore, but gave the green light.

Li Qian didn't tell him about assisting Wang Zhixian to seize power, but Yang Qing is a smart person, and he should have seen some clues from the many changes recently. In short, he should be able to see that it was mainly because of his own reasons that he was able to open smoothly in the end.

It seems that in the feudal era, if you don't have some status and connections, it is not easy to do some small business!
