Chapter 87: Glass and Soap

Of course, glass can not be fired only with sand, it is made of quartz sand, soda ash, feldspar and limestone as raw materials, after mixing, high-temperature melting, homogenization, processing and forming, and then annealing.

In general, however, none of these raw materials are very valuable, and glass can be sold as luxury jewelry and works of art as long as production is controlled.

This is a big business.

Now Yutou Town is basically under Fang Yue's control, with a lot of waste waiting to be rebuilt, financial difficulties, and a large amount of money is needed.

Fang Yue himself, whether he wants to harvest merit points, learn martial arts cheats, or even consume various medicinal materials in his daily martial arts, he also needs the support of money.

In general, Fang Yue is very short of money now.

So now that he has settled down, Fang Yue's plan to set up various workshops in Yutou Town has been put on the agenda.

"Junlin, tell me what you think." Fang Yue handed the glass in his hand to Ren Junlin.

Ren Junlin held it in his hand and looked at it over and over again, looking like he couldn't put it down.

Of course, he didn't just like the shiny glass, but the great interests represented behind the glass.

"I talked to you that day, and you said that this glass can be made into all kinds of shapes. If they are made into vases, sculptures, teacups, mirrors, statues, ornaments, etc., for the upper echelons of the dignitaries, they can make huge profits. Ren Junlin commented.

Fang Yue nodded, Ren Junlin's thoughts coincided with him, the glass piece, he planned to take the upper route and sell it as a luxury product.

In addition, when the workshop that fired the glass could be mass-produced, it would be made into delicate bottles for perfume and distilled spirits.

These are two more luxuries, which are small and promising.

The above is intended to go to the upper echelons and earn the money of those high-ranking officials and wealthy families.

In addition, Fang Yue also prepared some products, which belong to daily necessities, and are ready to take the civilian route, with small profits and quick turnover, which can be regarded as benefiting the people of this world.

"After talking about the glass, Junlin, how is the soap over there?"

Ren Junlin reluctantly put down the glass in his hand and said, "Mass production has begun, I brought samples over."

As he spoke, he also took out a box containing a yellow piece of soap.

"I said Fang Yue, did you really decide to sell this soap at a price slightly higher than the cost?

I've tried this soap at home and it works so well that you can see that my skin is white and slippery. ”

Ren Junlin said as he shook the fat on his body.

"And my mother-in-law also used this soap to wash her face, and she liked it at the time, and said that she would only use it in the future.

Such a good thing, even if it is sold expensive, there are still many people vying to buy it, and it can be operated as a luxury item like glass. ”

Qian Dagui and Deng Hetong heard Ren Junlin say this, and became interested in the yellow thing in his hand.

I used a wooden basin to fetch water from the outside, and I tried to wash my hands with soap, the foam was rich, and it felt comfortable after washing, and I immediately praised it, saying that it was much better than the pancreas I used before.

Fang Yue thought for a while and said: "Soap can be made into several grades, you can add petals, spices, etc., to make high-grade soap, beautifully packaged, and supplied to wealthy families."

In this regard, you should have experience.

However, ordinary soap is sold at the price I said, seeking a small profit but quick turnover. ”

Ren Junlin nodded and said, "Okay, then do it."

Fang Yue has the absolute right to speak on these issues.

"So, let's talk about the profit distribution division now." Fang Yue looked at everyone.

Several people sat at the table, waiting for Fang Yue to speak.

"I provide the formula, and I account for 40% of the profits. Responsible for production, the profit accounts for 20%. Those who are responsible for sales also account for 20% of the profits. The remaining 20% will be handed over to the town collective as a tax. ”

A few people nodded, this distribution plan had been said before, and Fang Yue was just repeating it now.

"In the firing glass, the technology is not very mature, so you can slow it down first. And if you want to sell it as a luxury product, you have to expand the scope, and taking the sea route is the best solution.

It's just that what the situation is at sea today still needs to be investigated. ”

Fang Yue said, looking at Ren Junlin.

Ren Junlin said: "The sea in the East China Sea has retreated, and we are here to the coastal area of Baiquan Mansion, which can be regarded as restoring peace."

However, our Ren family suffered heavy losses in this invasion, and many merchant ships were destroyed or towed away.

It will take some time to restore the capacity of sea transport. ”

Fang Yue said: "There are a few ships to organize a few first, and in addition, we need to explore the sea situation again and make sure that it is safe before opening the route."

Ren Junlin nodded, this invasion of the pirates left a big shadow on everyone.

The imperial court can't be trusted, and the sailors of the imperial court naturally can't count on it, so they can only rely on themselves at sea.

Fang Yue looked at Deng Hetong, who had been laughing with him on the side, and said, "Mayor Deng, the few Haikou ships we captured can be transformed and used as the collective property of the town to form a fleet to participate in the transportation and sale of glass and soap in the name of Yutou Town." In terms of profit distribution plan, I also refer to what I just said. ”

Deng Hetong didn't expect to mention himself, so he hurriedly agreed, nodding like pounding garlic.

Fang Yue shook his head, thinking that Deng Hetong, the mayor of the town, was indeed unqualified, but he was submissive, and he was not a little independent, where could Yutou Town be assured to hand it over to him.

Although his personality is cowardly and easy to control, the other party Yue said that there is no need for this, and his own force and reputation are the key to his ability to control Fishhead Town.

"When I find a suitable candidate, I will replace this Deng Hetong."

Fang Yue made up his mind in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.

He looked at Qian Dagui again and said, "Things on the sea route can be postponed, but things on the land route can't be delayed." Qian Dagui, how are your channels in Banshan County? ”

Banshan County is a county adjacent to Ping'an County, close to Yutou Town.

After crossing the bay from Fish Head Town and arriving at Fish Town, there are two directions on the land route.

One direction leads to the county seat of Ping'an County, and the other direction leads to Banshan County.

Qian Dagui was in the fishmonger's business, and after buying fish from fishermen at the fish market, in addition to selling them to this county, the main market was Banshan County.

Banshan County is not close to the sea, so it needs to serve seafood somewhere else.

Now that Ping'an County is ruined, there is no way to go in that direction, and the demons and monsters dare not go, and they can only take the direction of Banshan County on land.

Qian Dagui patted his chest and promised: "Fang Xiucai, don't worry, the channels in Banshan County are absolutely fine."

Fang Yue said: "That's good." Let's start with the soap, Junlin, you are responsible for the production, the money is expensive, you are responsible for distributing the goods over there through your original channels in Banshan County. First of all, from the side of Banshan County, open the popularity of our products. ”

Ren Junlin and Qian Dagui agreed together.

After talking about things, Fang Yue said with a smile: "It's noon, let's stay and have a meal together." I asked Apricot to prepare a few specialties. ”

"It's great to have special dishes to eat again."

When Ren Junlin heard the "special dish", he immediately smiled, and couldn't help but want to drool.

He's fat, and of course it's delicious.

The last two times, Fang Yue asked Xing'er to prepare the "special dishes", but they were dishes that Ren Junlin had never tasted, and almost made him cry.

Braised pork, sweet and sour pork ribs, fish-flavored eggplant, sauerkraut fish, fish head with chopped pepper, braised prawns, mapo tofu......

These ordinary home-cooked dishes from another world have become absolutely delicious dishes in this world.

Ren Junlin came this time, but he emptied his stomach in advance and waited for another big meal.
