Chapter 377: The princess is not simple
The body is snow-white, there is not a single stray hair, and the texture is smooth, and the feel is especially good to touch, this is undoubtedly a good fox skin.
It is not easy to find such a piece of skin in the wild.
Therefore, Qin Xiang asked Anal if he had mastered the technique of breeding foxes.
Since watching "The Legend of General Huwei", Anar has admired Qin Xiang more and more, like a second Xiaoyu.
It's only to blame that there are no women like Qin Xiang around Anal. Although there is no shortage of powerful women, they are also accompanied by greater force.
Just like Anal followed her mother, so she was tall and thin, and she lacked a sense of awe. But Qin Xiang is different, no matter what, she is a delicate and fragrant beauty.
Is there such a beauty around Anal? Yes, yes. But they only think about how to get beautiful clothes and sink among men. Anar couldn't say anything wrong with that, but it seemed to her that they had something more precious than beauty.
As for men? Heh, it's just useless pieces of meat.
Anaer, who extremely despises him for doing whatever he wants as a man, naturally likes Qin Xiang very much, although he is weak, but with his powerful ability, he is thriving in a world that is not suitable for women.
Qin Xiang has a good impression of the furs brought by Anar, and these spices are also good.
"It's about to be winter, and if the caravan comes from East Meng, the journey alone will take more than two months."
Considering that Anar and the others still have to pass the news back to Dongmeng, it takes half a year to go back and forth. Qin Xiang calculated in his heart that these furs and spices would not be able to catch up with this year's new ones.
The newly arrived furs need to be processed, and it will be next year at the earliest.
To say that the most unbearable thing for her in this era is traffic. Due to traffic, news and freight are very slow. The impact on ordinary people is probably not that big, but for businessmen, this is really a headache.
Qin Xiang is a person who pays attention to efficiency, although she knows that she is restricted by the times, even if she is in a hurry, she can't do anything. But occasionally I can't help but go a little crazy, and my mind is full of unrealistic ideas.
The reality is that she is just an ordinary person, and she does not have the ability to go to the sea and change the whole world.
Just as Qin Xiang fell into a whimsical thought again, Anar spoke: "I can send a message right now and let them leave immediately." ”
Qin Xiang glanced at this little girl who seemed to be eager to offer treasure to her little friends, and her evaluation of Anar in her heart had risen to another level. It seems that Anal is not just a princess in Dongmeng, her influence is far beyond her imagination.
Being able to easily influence a country's business behavior is not something that a royal princess can do.
is like the ten princesses, although they have the name of princesses, they don't have much power in their hands. The only thing she can use is her marriage.
"Then I'll wait for your good news, about the price......"
The two sides discussed for half an hour.
Waiting for Qin Xiang's mouth to be dry, Anar left with a contract and was satisfied.
Before leaving, she patted Qin Xiang's shoulder and said with a serious face: "Qin Xiang, you are a very good woman, I admire you." As Anar, I promise that this business will go smoothly. From now on, you will be a friend of Dongmeng. ”
Qin Xiang happily accepted, and only after Anar left, did he show a hint of surprise.
Pei Pei served flower and fruit tea, and couldn't help laughing: "Madame, what good news did you hear?" ”
"I just negotiated a deal, and I'm happy."
"Then this business must be huge, otherwise how would Madame be so happy."
"Witty, you guessed it." Qin Xiang sighed: "I just know that selling leather goods and spices is especially profitable. ”
Spices were a luxury in this era, and only the elite had the opportunity to encounter them.
Locally produced spices are also good, especially the precious spices from other countries, the price has long surpassed gold.
Different kinds of spices are also added to the products of 'Xiang'. In particular, incense pills and combustible incense are made with many precious spices. Her heart bleeds every time she sees an order for spice purchases.
Of course, these excellent raw materials brought Qin Xiang a dazzling benefit.
Many people think that 'Xiang' is a shop that specializes in selling women's rouge gouache, and only regular customers know the doorway.
For people who understand and love incense, they will buy their favorite incense varieties from 'Xiang'.
'Xiang's investment in the product line of incense products far exceeds that of other products.
Probably because Qin Xiang likes incense, and because incense is a product of the upper class. The better the incense is sold, the greater the subsequent impact on 'Hunan'.
Moreover, perfume is easier to make than other types of cosmetics. In addition to the problem of raw materials, although the process in production is complex, it is far less complicated than the purification of other fragrances and other products.
In the end, it's just because of ...... She's lazy.
In modern times, a variety of spices to make easier. Even the expensive ones can be easily obtained as long as you have money. 678
Qin Xiang likes to mix fragrances in private, and she has a huge fragrance spectrum in her mind.
Compared with those cosmetics that require racking their brains, of course, fragrance making is more in line with Qin Xiang's lazy standards.
The emergence of Anar has completely solved the problem of raw material supply. What's more, the price is too low.
Spices are indeed expensive items, but in addition to certain types of spices that are difficult to obtain, they are more of an added value to transportation costs. Moreover, spice merchants also have to make a huge difference in prices, which is the main reason for the high price of spices.
Some people have also thought about working directly with spice suppliers, but most of the expensive spices come from other countries such as Dongmeng. Ordinary incense shops can't afford such huge transportation costs.
They were not as lucky as Qin Xiang to be able to directly meet the princess of the Eastern Meng Kingdom. They directly crossed over the spice merchants, and their direct cooperation eliminated the link of being earned. Moreover, the amount of spices needed by 'Xiang' is huge, and Anar is naturally willing to give them a purchase price.
"Just wait until the spices arrive, and you can get the factory up and running."
Qin Xiang snapped his fingers and calculated, no matter how fast the caravan was, plus the time it took for Anar to deliver the news, it would take nearly four months. These four months were enough time for her to set up another factory.
Today's Fucheng has been completely shrouded by Qin Ji, and the wilderness outside the city has become a factory.
Relying on the good relationship between the economy and the local government, Qin Xiang wantonly acquired uninhabitable wasteland outside the city. And send people to repair these wastelands and put them to use.
As soon as she gives the order, there will be workers stationed immediately.
In fact, too many factories are concentrated together, which will inevitably cause a certain amount of pollution to the local environment.
However, Qin Xiang didn't worry too much, before the production of chemicals and synthetic products, the era of low productivity, although there would be a certain amount of pollution, it would not be very serious.
Her paper mill, although it has improved its methods, still uses the most primitive methods for making paper. The flavors are made of natural plants and no chemicals are added. Even the production process does not require the use of large machinery, and it is all human.
At this time, Qin Xiang misses modern mechanized production again, and laments the low labor in this era.
The economic prosperity of Fucheng has also boosted the surrounding villages and towns.
During the busy season, farmers work in the fields, and when the farming season is not working, they do odd jobs in nearby factories.
Governor Chen even wrote a letter to thank Qin Xiang personally, because of the birth of the factory, almost all the people can find jobs, and last year the city suffered from severe cold, and no one froze to death. Even the beggars on the side of the road are few, and as long as they are not born with laziness, they can always find a way to survive.
Qin Xiang felt ashamed, she hadn't thought about this before starting the factory.
A letter from Governor Chen's mansion made Qin Xiang firm up on one more thing.
There is a great man in China who once said a very reasonable sentence: no matter how poor you are, you can't be poor in education.
Learning will not make a person wise, but it will make him understand the truth and no longer be ignorant.
Knowledge will not abandon your wealth, which Qin Xiang deeply believes.
In ancient times, people were superstitious about home remedies to cure diseases, and even prayed to the gods for protection rather than choosing medical treatment. This is a lack of knowledge, a manifestation of ignorance.
It is true that some home remedies can cure diseases, but many of them are nonsense. The reason why the patient can be cured is probably the probability of surviving. Qin Xiang did not comment on this.
"It's time to build a few more skill halls."
To use the modern understanding, the technical hall is a technical school that does not charge tuition. No matter what your status, you can learn a skill here.
In this era, the price of acquiring knowledge is too high, and Qin Xiang can indeed establish many academies that do not charge tuition. But these do not change their lives. Not everyone is the right person to learn, but some of the right skills can help them get through it.
As for those who love to learn, there is always a way to get a better education. This is not contrary to the concept of the Art Hall, as long as you want to study and study well, Qin Xiang will pay for them.
She doesn't want a 'nerd' who only knows how to read to death, but someone who can really contribute to the country by gaining knowledge.
I never felt how great I was, she thought to herself.
It's just that I want to do something in this era.
Qin Xiang put away the deed paper and said to Pepe, "Go to a tea house." ”
The little group will stay in the school today, and lunch will be eaten in the school. As for Han Yunxiao, he rarely comes back for lunch. There are more options to go to Yimingju, and Qin Xiang doesn't want to toss the cook at home alone.
Pei Pei hurriedly called someone to prepare, and brought Qin Xiang a dress to go out.
"It's windy today, Madame wear more."
Qin Xiang looked at the big sun above his head and sighed in his heart: There is a kind of coldness, which makes your maid feel that you are cold.
Last week's newspaper did a whole page of food tips, from restaurants to street food. Some of them are real data, and there are also entrained private goods. Before the newspaper, Qin Xiang had already asked people to investigate, and he must not smash his own signboard.
And Yi Mingju and Eat Chicken and Sanhe Ji are all on the list. In the past, Yimingju was just a famous restaurant, but now it is as famous as the first restaurant in the capital, and there are more diners who come to eat, and Qin Xiang, the boss, can wake up with a smile every day.
