51, alchemy furnace
Bai Ziyun walked out of the lively street, turned into a secluded alley, and walked into a blacksmith shop.
The iron tools placed in the blacksmith shop, in addition to life utensils, there are also sword weapons, Bai Ziyun looked at it, and felt that it was okay, at least not worse than the official.
At this time, a middle-aged man came over and asked, "This master, what do you want to buy?" ”
"I want to build an alchemy furnace, will you?"
Bai Ziyun looked at the middle-aged man, he was tall, his muscles were knotted, his eyes burst out of essence, and his actions were quite orderly, it seemed that his Xingyi Quan had a high attainment.
"It turned out to be a Taoist leader, the alchemy furnace will naturally be, I still have one here, you wait a minute, I'll bring it to you, you see if you like it." The middle-aged man smiled and went to the back room to get the alchemy furnace.
"Okay!"
The middle-aged man quickly hugged an alchemy furnace, Bai Ziyun took it in his hand and looked at it, and immediately smiled dumbly, what kind of alchemy furnace is this, but it looks like an alchemy furnace, and it is just a pot inside, with only one cooking effect, and there is not much difference from Ding.
"The functions of your alchemy furnace are too simple and do not meet my requirements." Bai Ziyun shook his head and smiled.
"Oh? If the Taoist wants to customize any function, just say it and see if I can fire it. The middle-aged man patted his strong chest and said, as if he was very confident in his skills.
Seeing his confident appearance, Bai Ziyun took out a few pieces of paper from his arms, on which the structure of the alchemy furnace was drawn with small black lines.
When the middle-aged man saw it, he was suddenly dizzy, it was too complicated, many people couldn't understand it, but it seemed to make a lot of sense, and a thought flashed in his heart, I can make this kind of alchemy furnace in Zhuo County, but I am afraid that there is only that immortal, is this Taoist chief a disciple of the immortal?
The middle-aged man's heart jumped violently, and it took a long time to stabilize the agitated feelings, and said ashamedly: "Dao Chief, can you explain one or two of your drawings that you can't understand?" A pair of eyes flashed with urgency.
Bai Ziyun nodded with a smile, and explained the alchemy furnace. He didn't have a blacksmith or equipment for the time being, so he went to the blacksmith shop to see his luck, and if the other party couldn't build it, then he had to do it himself.
After half an hour, the middle-aged man finally understood the structure of the alchemy furnace, analyzed it carefully in his mind, and split those structures out, and suddenly found that it didn't seem to be difficult to build.
"Dao Chief, it can be built in the next place, but it takes a lot of time, and the price is not low."
"Oh? How long will it take and how much will it cost? Bai Ziyun asked.
"It will take half a year, and the price will be 5,000 yuan. How is the Taoist leader? The middle-aged man looked at Bai Ziyun with some apprehension.
Bai Ziyun didn't answer, but walked around the shop and thought about it for a while.
This alchemy furnace is the structure of the Ming Dynasty, but there is a function that has been slightly changed, and the craftsmen at that time were able to make it, and I think it should be able to do it in the Han Dynasty.
"If you can build it in a month, I'll give you 20,000 dollars, how about it?" Bai Ziyun finally said.
The middle-aged man thought about it for a long time before he said solemnly: "Okay! ”
"You study this drawing first, and tomorrow the people from Baijiazhuang will send the money." As he spoke, Bai Ziyun walked out of the store leisurely.
"Sure enough, it's someone from Baijiazhuang." The middle-aged man was overjoyed and full of energy.
Bai Ziyun returned to Baijiazhuang and entered his study, which was brightly lit, and he liked to stay in this place.
"Sanniang, call the housekeeper Fang Yuan." Bai Ziyun commanded.
It didn't take long for the housekeeper Fang Yuan to walk into the house cautiously, and when he saw that the light in the house was bright, he looked at the glass tiles and windows on the roof, and his heart suddenly twitched, such a large piece of glass is worth millions, but it is used here to make windows, and the owner is so ruined.
Bai Ziyun asked, "In the last few days, how has the glass mirror been sold?" ”
Fang Yuan said with a red face: "Master, it was sold for a total of five days, on the first day, it was sold for 355,000 yuan, on the second day it was sold for 547,000 yuan, on the third day it sold for 2.235 million yuan, on the fourth day it sold for 377,000 yuan, and on the fifth day it sold for 239,000 yuan, for a total of 3,753,000 yuan!" ”
"Huh? Why are there so many more days on the third day? Bai Ziyun became interested and asked with a smile.
Fang Yuan said with a smile: "It is a wealthy businessman from Xuzhou, he bought a thousand small mirrors, and I gave him a twenty percent discount according to the master's regulations." ”
Bai Ziyun was a little surprised, there was a wealthy businessman from a long distance who was willing to buy such a large number of mirrors, wasn't he afraid of damage on the road?
The raw materials for making zuò mirrors need to be transported to the mountains by manpower, and the labor cost is quite high, Bai Ziyun set the price of glass mirrors very high, and he has never considered entering the homes of ordinary people, which needs to be considered after a few years, or even more than ten years.
Although this world is ancient, there are more rich people, and after selling Youzhou, selling other states, and selling the Central Plains, you can sell it abroad, and those barbarian nobles and royals have gold treasures to exchange for huàn.
This kind of glass mirror, although it is profitable, except for selling it at home, Bai Ziyun thinks that no one will dare to act as an agent.
Imagine that in the case of flat modern roads, shockproof cars, and complete protection, glass is still worn from time to time, and in this terrible traffic environment in ancient times, even if Bai Ziyun repeatedly promised that it would not be damaged, no one dared to transport it. What's more, Bai Ziyun can't guarantee that it will not be damaged 100% during transportation.
But he forgot about it, and Lao Ma once said: "As soon as there is a proper profit, capital will be very bold." As long as there is a 10% profit, it will be used everywhere; 20%, it will be lively; 50% of the time, it will cause positive risk-taking; 100%, it will make people ignore a qiē law; 300% will make people not afraid of sin, or even the danger of hanging. ”
As long as there is enough profit, merchants are willing to take risks.
"Is it a rich businessman from Xuzhou? What's his name? ”
"His name is Mi Zhu, and this Mi family is a very famous business family in Xuzhou, involving many industries."
"Mi Zhu? Mi family? ”
Bai Ziyun suddenly smiled, this Mi Zhu family is really famous, one of the five major business families of the Three Kingdoms.
These five major business families: Hebei Zhen family, Xuzhou Mi family, Xichuan Qin family, Jingzhou Ma family, Jiangdong Lu family. It is said that these five families all have assets of hundreds of millions, and there are tens of thousands of slaves and doormen.
"This person has some knowledge, next time, let this person come to see me."
"Yes."
