Episode 311: [Toilet Water Course]
"High-end products?" Li Chengqian looked at Chen Qiuming.
Chen Qiuming nodded and said, "Yes." ”
He paused for a moment and said, "That's right, the flower water is now only exclusive to His Royal Highness's family, and his family does not have it, so naturally there is no reason to sell it cheaply." Moreover, His Royal Highness's identity is there, and the flower water can be sold to all the noble women in Chang'an, and these people are not short of money, and they can take out as much money as they want. And it is only sold to the powerful, so that the toilet water can become something for them to show their identity, if it is not only sold to the powerful, but also sold to other civilians, then these powerful women will not feel the superiority of status when they buy our toilet water! Therefore, Tyumen believes that this flower water can only be sold at an expensive price, so that only people with money can afford it, so as to reflect the value of flower water! ”
The last time he came, Li Chengqian couldn't hear such remarks from Chen Qiuming, but this time, he saw that Chen Qiuming was right. It seems that he has put in the effort to investigate and study the market!
Moreover, Chen Qiuming's words aroused the business common sense that Li Chengqian saw and heard in modern times, and realized that the flower water in his hand now is an exclusive secret recipe and a monopoly industry. Of course, the price of monopoly things is up to him, thinking about PetroChina and moving these monopoly big guys, Li Chengqian suddenly felt that his flower water had an example to learn. There is also the issue of branding.
Li Chengqian thinks that toilet water should create a brand, a high-end brand, so that customers can feel the noble product of their identity when they use it.
"Tyumen is very reasonable, flower water is a luxury, and ordinary people will not buy it, so this price, you will set it at a line that the nobles can accept. Toilet water is a signboard, a brand, we want to run this brand, when the time comes, the nobles of Chang'an only use toilet water, they are embarrassed to meet and greet people, if they do not use toilet water, they are embarrassed to greet people. In this way, our toilet water is only sold to the upper class, so the amount of toilet water to be produced will be less, so this employee will not need more, Tyumen, you calculate the output of the flower water to meet the Chang'an aristocracy, how much, and then see how big the workshop to build. Li Chengqian said to them.
"This brand that Your Highness is talking about?" Chen Qiuming asked.
"The brand, that is, when everyone hears the name of toilet water in the future, they know that it is a symbol of status. We can also put the logo of toilet water on the bottle, so that people can recognize it as toilet water at a glance. ”
"And what is this logo going to use?" Chen Qiuming asked.
Li Chengqian touched his chin and remembered the words: "Who pities Fang longer, spring dew to autumn wind!" ”
Chen Qiuming and Zhu Jie's eyes lit up, and Zhu Jie praised: "Good poetry, good poetry, Your Highness is really a good literary talent!" ”
"Fart, it's the word, oh long and short sentences." Li Chengqian said disdainfully.
Chen Qiuming asked: "Your Highness, what is the whole poem of this length and short, and what is the title of the article?" ”
Li Chengqian was stunned by the question, and after thinking about it, he couldn't remember the entire content of the word, and even forgot the author and the name of the word. In order to get rid of the embarrassment, Li Chengqian waved his hand and said: "I can only come up with such a sentence, and I haven't come up with the content of the whole song yet, but I just need to use this sentence." ”
He coughed and said: "What I mean is this, the three big characters of flower dew water, write this sentence below who pities the fragrance longer, spring dew to autumn wind, and then add a decoration around, you can become the logo of our flower dew water!" In the future, bottles of toilet water can be pasted with these identification papers. ”
Chen Qiuming nodded in agreement with Li Chengqian's idea, but added: "Your Highness, you can also burn these words into a porcelain bottle." ”
"Okay, you can do these details." Li Chengqian nodded.
Chen Qiuming put away Li Chengqian's words, and then said: "The number of employees recruited, you need to know what the production process of Your Highness's flower water is like, and how long it will take to produce it, so that you can know the number of employees needed!" ”
"Your Highness, I don't know if you have brought the master of the flower water out, I will let the master of the flower water explain the production process of the flower water."
"No, you don't." Li Chengqian waved his hand, and then beckoned to Lao Zeng outside.
Lao Zeng walked in with the materials for the flower water and two jars of wine.
Li Chengqian said to Chen Qiuming: "Flower water needs these medicinal materials, after the medicinal materials are ground into powder, pour into the wine, this is a special high wine, after rocking, let the fragrance of the medicine run into the wine, and then filter out the medicinal powder, it becomes flower water." ”
"This rock process can be manpower, but it is just to produce a large amount of toilet water, so you can't rely on one person holding a bottle to shake it, you can make a wooden rack, and then put all the bottles on it, and one person can shake several bottles, or a dozen bottles. It can also be changed to a donkey to rotate without manpower, and then drive to shake. Li Chengqian said.
Chen Qiuming wrote down everything Li Chengqian said.
After remembering, he picked up the powder of the flower water, took it out with his hand, looked at it with his eyes, then smelled it with his nose, and said, "Good! ”
When Li Chengqian and Zhu Jie were puzzled, Chen Qiuming looked at them and said: "Chen was still worried that the process of this flower water was too simple, and after the workers entered the workshop for a while, they could steal the craft and learn it, so they discussed with Steward Zhu that they would only use the tenants on the Huangzhuang." But the tenant is not 100% convinced. Now I see that His Highness's flower water material is ground into powder, and even I, a person who has been in contact with medicine for many years, can't recognize it completely, so I have an idea. ”
"The process of distributing this medicinal material and grinding it into powder, His Highness can get it in the palace and then bring it to the workshop, so that no one in the workshop will know what this raw material is used for, and no one will be able to steal the teacher!"
It turned out that someone had stolen the recipe for the toilet water.
Li Chengqian nodded, thinking of a possibility, this Chen Qiuming was afraid that Li Chengqian would doubt his loyalty, and the material was that Li Chengqian would send it to the workshop after it was prepared from the palace, so that even Chen Qiuming didn't know it, so he didn't have to worry that Chen Qiuming would know the formula, and he would produce flower water by himself in the future.
It is good that Chen Qiuming has this heart, and Li Chengqian likes it, but Li Chengqian is still at ease with Chen Qiuming because he trusts Xiao Chen. Li Chengqian said to him: "It is not convenient to send the powder of the flower dew water to the palace after it is dispensed, so it is better to leave it to Qiuming to make it." Since you are afraid that the workers will steal the formula, you can separate the place where the medicinal materials are dispensed from other places, and divide one into a pharmacy and a production room. The dispensing pharmacy is divided into several small rooms, and different small rooms grind different medicines, so that as long as there is no collective stealing of the formula, they will not know what the formula is! ”
