Chapter 117: They are all calculating Xie Shizi's silver

"Lord Shizi, it's sold short again!"

Jiuwan wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Only three batches of customers were allowed in, and the store was sold out for the fifth time. Those who couldn't buy the goods they liked stood still and waited, saying that they would wait for a long time.

Especially soap, soap, and shampoo, many people buy them for hundreds or thousands of dollars, just like they don't need money.

The decontamination effect is so good!

At present, people are using soaphorn raccoons, and the decontamination effect is really not good. In particular, if the clothes are stained with oil, they will basically be wasted. The masters of the big families are okay and have a lot of clothes, but the small families and slaves can't be so wasteful.

Now Tokai Department Store has a soap that can wash away grease stains, so you don't have to throw away dirty clothes in the future!

Not to mention shampoo, everyone has to use it.

Nowadays, people wash their hair, the poor use rice water or plant ashes, and the rich use eggs and spices. No matter what you use, you can't wash it cleanly, and there are lice on your heads for ten or eight people, which is why every house has a grate, which is the kind of comb with particularly dense teeth.

Even Xie Xun, who bathes and washes his hair every day, can occasionally grate out one or two lice, and the decontamination ability of current shampoo products can be seen.

Xie Xun has long wanted to get shampoo. The modern shampoo with silicone oil was too complicated for him to get it for the time being, so he made baking soda shampoo first.

Baking soda is a good match, he studied science and engineering, and his chemistry teacher taught him. Baking soda with some emollient cream and dried flower petals is used to wash your hair, and the stain removal effect is very good.

Xie Xun and the people around him tried it for seven days and made sure that no one had allergies, so they handed over the recipe to the workshop for mass production.

"Lord Shizi, the three stores in the south of the city have sent people to urge the goods, saying that there are as many as 100,000 customers queuing up to buy soap."

Jiuwan handed over the reminders from the branch managers.

Xie Xun looked at those reminders, and for the first time he had a headache because the business was too hot. He had already prepared ten times the goods in advance, and it was only half a day, and he bought them all, still under the condition of controlling the flow of customers.

"Let those people register and pick up the goods tomorrow."

"I told the manager of the workshop that everyone worked overtime all night tonight, and the salary was tripled. After finishing this paragraph, there is still a reward to take. ”

Jiuwan said yes and ran to pass the word. There are so many things to say today, and he can't bear it even as a light skill master, let alone those little guys, who don't look like his own legs.

However, the shop business is booming, and they can also earn more rewards, and they are willing to be busy.

"Uncle Qian, how is the sales of other goods?" Xie Xun asked the manager of Donghai Department Store, the manager of Qian.

Steward Qian is an old man who follows Mrs. Xie, who is loyal to the Xie family and is very good at business. In the past, Xie Jiajun was in northern Xinjiang, and his military expenses were all earned by money and management. Xie Xun opened a department store, but there was no one under him, so he borrowed money from the old man to take care of things.

He runs a department store, and he can't just look at the sales of the goods manufactured by Xie's, he must take the overall situation.

He had a minimum purchase agreement with those suppliers. If you can't sell it, the Xie family will have to digest it by yourself.

"They have all been restocked twice, especially the five branches in the west of the city, which have been restocked four times."

Most of the people living in the west of the city are ordinary people, and those people rush to buy almost half-price items, like crazy.

Who knows if tomorrow or not at this price?

Take advantage of the bargain and grab it!

The people in the store refused to come out and rushed to buy, and the people queuing outside the store were in a hurry to get in.

Stopped at the door, the officers and soldiers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division who controlled the flow of people were all rushed down several times.

"The goods on the west side of the city must be sufficient."

If they know that the goods are insufficient, they may ignore the rules, crowd, and even stampede.

"Let Chu Jue pay attention, you must maintain order."

As soon as the nine bowls stepped into the room, they ran out to pass the word again.

"How about selling land for bicycles?"

Because of the price, bicycles, three-wheeled, four-wheeled and six-wheeled bicycles are mostly sold in a few shops in wealthy areas.

"It's all gone!" The person who is already in charge of the money housekeeper is almost a sixtieth birthday, but the whole person who is also excited by today's hot scene is excited.

"10,000 bicycles, plus 5,000 tricycles, four-wheelers, and six-wheelers, all sold?"

In the teahouse, Gao Shiqing was shocked and dropped the teacup in his hand.

Because he was afraid that people would recognize him, he didn't enter the Donghai Department Store, but walked around the door, and came to the teahouse to see the four princes and the prince.

Because of the millions of taels of silver, the four princes and the crown prince temporarily had a common topic.

"The net profit is only 30%, just that bicycle, Donghai Department Store can earn at least 600,000 taels!"

"I heard that another 30,000 vehicles will be delivered, and Xie Shizi promised to pick up the goods in three days."

Poof, the prince spit out the tea that had been put in his mouth.

"Isn't that just the profit of the bicycle enough to pay our share of profits!"

The prince is really not calm.

Gao Shiqing had already closed his eyes, if the other party was not the prince, he would definitely scold the other party and make the other party shut up.

The Xie family has made a lot of money this time!

What about the Gao family? Even if those imported goods were transported to the capital, they became dead goods, and no one bought them at all.

The people he sent bought the glass wine vessels, which were only fifty taels in sets, and the workmanship and appearance were more exquisite than those of foreign goods, but the price was so low that it almost looked like they had been picked up.

Who would buy foreign goods?

In other words, the supporters of the Gao family will buy some as an offering, so that at the end of the year, those people will not make offerings again, but the gains outweigh the losses.

"Send someone to tell our people that after the ship returns to the sea, there is no need to come to the capital again, and it will sell all the goods directly in the coastal towns. The action must be fast, as long as you can earn a few taels of silver, you can sell it! ”

It was late, and the news of Donghai Department Store reached the southern towns, and those imported goods really couldn't be sold.

Gao Shiqing's little guy ran away, but he couldn't help but sneak a piece of ice cream, running and licking it.

He is Gao Shiqing's personal servant, there is no shortage of ice cubes in summer, but the taste of this ice cream is different from ice cubes, sweet and silky, with a milky taste, cold and cold, it is really a holy product to cool off in summer.

Gao Shiqing saw the little girl's small movements, and almost called someone back angrily to hit the board to eliminate the hatred in his heart.

"Third brother, you said, according to such a money-making rate in Donghai Department Store, after three months, will we be able to share more profits?" The fourth prince asked the prince with high interest.

The prince took a bite of the ice cream, savored the cool feeling, and then snorted, "If he Xie Xun doesn't give this prince more profits, this prince will settle accounts with him, put all the accounts in front of him, and see if he is embarrassed!" ”

The Emperor thought the same thing.

He did even more, and even called the most scheming officials under him.

"You calculate for me, according to the sales situation of Donghai Department Store, three months later, I asked the Xie family how much silver the gentleman wanted, so that I would not lose money?"

The official began to crackle and dial the abacus beads, and it took a while before he reported a number, "According to the 200,000 taels of silver invested by the emperor, Xie Shizi will give you at least 500,000." ”

The emperor clapped his hands in annoyance, "Then wouldn't the crown prince and the fourth child receive more than two million taels?" I knew I should have scraped together some more money!"

A family member dressed in a Gao Mansion uniform ran into the teahouse in a panic, and shouted without waiting for the private room where Gao Shiqing was.

"Young master, it's not good, the lord has sent news that the sea ship in our house was robbed by pirates when it returned home!"

"What!" Gao Shiqing's brain boomed, and he almost fainted.

The smile on the face of the fourth prince also froze, and the sea boat he privately raised was taken care of by the Gao family.

The prince was still gloating at first, and before the smile reached his eyes, he saw the big eunuch next to him running in sweating.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the Empress has sent you back, there is an urgent matter to discuss!"

The eunuch had forgotten to even perform the ceremony, and the seriousness of the situation could be seen.

The prince chuckled in his heart, although he did not privately raise sea ships, his uncle had a lot of sea ships, and the income from those sea ships was used to support the Eastern Army recruited by his uncle.

When something happened to my uncle's ship, did my uncle secretly recruit more people to pay him for money?
