Chapter 1044: Famine, Natural Disasters 201
"Master, the minion bought the things back."
Don't step into the living room, it's hard to carry things.
"Order someone to prepare a carriage and send Uncle Cheng home."
As soon as Zhou Ting's words fell, Cheng Yuanxi said with a firm expression: "The grass people thank the prince for passing away, but the grass people brought a cart, and the grass people's father and brother are also in Fucheng; The grass people can go home with them, and you don't have to bother. ”
"It's fine."
Cheng Yuanxi got up and said goodbye, "Thank you again for the hospitality, and the grass people will retire." ”
"No, the things will be delivered to Uncle Cheng's car."
"Whoa."
No, because his breath was not even even, he hurriedly followed Cheng Yuanxi out again; personally sent people outside the palace, and the roasted whole lamb and steak carried were sent to the cart, and the other party pushed the cart away before turning back.
"Master, Mr. Cheng is gone."
"Arrange for people to go to the Western Regions as soon as possible, and bring potatoes, corn and other things back as soon as possible; Is there any news from the people who sent out? ”
No, he shook his head, "No." ”
"That's it." Zhou Ting patted his forehead, his brain moved a lot, and his forehead tightened, "Go to Chengjiazhuang tomorrow, and order a roast mutton and steak later, and I will ask for it early tomorrow morning; Be hot for freshness, and don't take it back overnight. ”
"Well, the minion knows." He didn't dare to come back with something unfresh.
Fortunately, the family made a special barbecue, which had to be freshly grilled every day; Only fifty heads were roasted a day, and when they were sold out, they were gone, so he had to order them early.
Cheng Yuanxi pushed the cart to the gate of the city, lifted the soap covered on the cart, and did not go to the rest of the Cheng family, and immediately sold it at the gate of the city.
"Soap, selling soap ~ big and convenient soap, laundry, hand washing, bathing and cleaning ~~"
When the soldiers guarding the gates heard the shouting, they couldn't help but look at it a few more times; They did not hinder their duty of guarding the city, they were a little far away, and they did not block the way of pedestrians, so they did not come forward to drive them.
And the people who heard the voice, whether they were going into the city or going out of the city, would gather together to take a look; But for a moment, Cheng Yuanxi's stall surrounded the front three floors inside and three layers outside.
"Come on, come on, everyone come to see the soap, do we have to use soap horn powder to wash when we take a shower at home?"
"Yes, my family went to the mountains to find the soap horn, and it was ground into powder and saved a lot of copper plates."
"Boss, can you do laundry, wash your hands, and take a shower with your soap?"
"That's for sure, it's going to work well." Cheng Yuanxi smiled and packed the ticket, "If you have dirty clothes, and there is water by the way, I will take a piece out and try it for you on the spot, so that you can see how good the effect is." ”
The onlookers will be suspicious, and if they think about the place where they live near the city gate, they will see the excitement, and immediately raise their hands and shout, "Boss, you wait for me for a while, and I will go back and get dirty clothes; Come back in a quarter of an hour, don't you leave! ”
"Okay, then thank you for the opportunity to try." Cheng Yuanxi took a sip.
The woman who spoke ran back so fast that it didn't take a quarter of an hour, or half an hour, to come back with a small basin of water and a piece of dirty clothes.
"Boss, dirty clothes and water are there." The basin with water and clothes was placed on the cart.
Cheng Yuanxi still smiled, and handed her a piece of soap casually, "Eldest sister try it, tell me how you feel after you try it." ”
"Okay." The woman took up the wet garment and turned it out of the oil-stained area.
When everyone saw the degree of oil, they nodded their heads; A piece of hard cloth can be seen to be really dirty, and it can't be washed with soaphorn powder on weekdays.
"You rub the soap on it, lather it up, and scrub it off."
Whatever Cheng Yuanxi says, the woman knows how to do it; Smeared a thick layer, rubbed it twice, and really made a foam, the woman looked up in surprise, and Cheng Yuanxi smiled at her.
"You can scrub your clothes as you do on weekdays."
"Okay."
The woman vigorously pounded her garment, and the foam gradually changed color, that is, the color of the stain on the garment, which was washed away; The first time it was not all washed, the woman wiped it twice more before it was completely washed according to Cheng Yuanxi's instructions.
After washing, the clothes are dyed with a faint fragrance, which is not strong or unpleasant.
"Hey, it's so good, boss, what's the price of your soap?"
"Ten cents a piece, a piece can be used for half a month to a month."
After Cheng Yuanxi finished speaking, he was overjoyed by the woman, "Great, bring me three pieces, I have never seen such a useful thing; I thought I couldn't wear this dress anymore, but I didn't expect it to be so clean. ”
"Okay, I'll give you three yuan, a total of thirty yuan." Cheng Yuanxi handed over three bars of soap.
The woman wiped her hands, took out the money bag, counted thirty yuan, and handed it to him, "Boss, where will I sell my soap if I run out of soap in the future?" ”
"Tomorrow we will come back to sell, and after that, we will definitely come to the city every five days, and if you need to take a few more glances at the city gate; Sometimes it goes to the north of the city, and sometimes it sells at the gate of the city. ”
"Yes, I remember, I'll come back to you next time." The woman smiled and answered.
Cheng Yuanxi smiled and nodded, "Then next time you come to take care of my business, the piece you used will be given to you." ”
"Really? The owner is atmospheric. ”
The woman poured out the water from the basin, and put the soap and the garment on one side of the basin, and the three pieces she had bought on the other side, without interfering with each other. Then, she walked out of the crowd with a basin, and did not forget to accept a piece of soap as she walked, helping to promote it.
"This thing is so good, I won't be afraid of dirty clothes at home in the future."
As soon as the woman left, the crowd of onlookers, anyone with some economic strength, gathered in front of the stall.
"Boss, bring me two too."
"I want three."
"I want a piece."
"I want four."
There are too many customers, and there is not enough soap left on the board car to sell.
Seeing that the last piece of soap was sold, there were still a lot of people around; Cheng Yuanxi couldn't let them stay around, so he could only say: "I'm really sorry, the soap in my car is sold out; If you don't want to wait, just wait for me, there are people in my family who sell soap in the city, and they will come and see if they have any soap in their hands. ”
"If you are in a hurry, you can go first, and we will come back tomorrow; We'll bring some more tomorrow, thank you for your attention. ”
People who do business pay attention to harmony and make money, and Cheng Yuanxi has a good upbringing, even if he does not have the essence of a businessman, but he also makes the guests feel comfortable.
"Then I'll go first, there is an urgent matter at home, and I don't know if I can meet you next time I come to Fucheng."
"If you don't come to Fucheng often, you can go to Chengjiazhuang next to Yuzhuang to find me; My surname is Cheng, my name is Cheng Yuanxi, and when I arrive at Chengjiazhuang, the big guy will know where to find me as soon as he asks. ”
"Yes, I'll go to your house tomorrow to buy it."
"I'm fine, so it's okay to wait here."
"I'm fine, just wait, it's a loss to buy two pieces of soap for such a good soap."
