Chapter Eighty-Six: A Royal Production, Must Be a Boutique!
"Thank you, Mr. Qin." The old patriarch sighed, "We owe Mr. too much in Lujia Village, and Mr. is not restrained in teaching and educating people in Lujia Village, and he also came to give us things." Sir's kindness, how can we Lu clan repay it in the future? β
"The patriarch is so polite." Qin Yu said, "You forgot? My life was saved by the people of Lujia Village, and I am also repaying the favor by doing so. A small piece of soap is not worth mentioning at all, and there is nothing to say about kindness or unkindness. β
"Sir is so friendly!" The patriarch could only sigh like this.
Qin Yu is friendly, and the villagers of Lujia Village are simple, as harmonious as fish and water.
And Qin Yu, an alien fish, wants to change this closed water.
"By the way, Mr. Qin, you just said that this thing is made of pig pancreas?" The patriarch was surprised.
"Yes." Qin Yu said, "Don't doubt its practicability, just try it." β
"Yesterday I heard that you were refining lard at school, and I thought you were eating delicious food again." The patriarch said with a smile.
"Huh." Qin Yu was slightly embarrassed, the patriarch's family didn't have children who went to school, so he didn't send him bacon and rice, "We have to go to another house to deliver it, so we won't bother." With that, he took the students and left.
Does this stuff really work? Looking at the soap made of pig pancreas in his hand, the old patriarch expressed doubts, and then beckoned his daughter-in-law to come over and ask her to try it, and the daughter-in-law took it and washed her hands, and both of them showed expressions of surprise.
"Strange thing, lard is actually better than honey locust!" They couldn't figure it out at all.
β¦β¦
Qin Yu took the students to continue to go from house to house, giving soap to each household.
finally came to Lu Dazhuang's house, and Lu Dazhuang happened to be at home.
"Big strong brother!" Qin Yu said, "I asked you to send Qing Qian to the school to go to school, why don't you agree?" β
"Mr. Qin, I ......" Lu Dazhuang said that he was very embarrassed and reluctant. Last time, he asked Qin Yu to accept his daughter as a maid, but Qin Yu decisively refused, making him feel as if he had been insulted.
As for Qin Yu, of course, he didn't want to start in three years, so he didn't leave him any room for negotiation.
"It's just for her to read a book, so why are you so stubborn?" Qin Yu couldn't figure out why he was like this at all, "In this way, if you promise to send Qing Qian to school, I will give you a knife of bacon and a bag of rice every week." β
What kind of world is this, not only do children not have to pay money to go to school, but teachers also have to post parents' things upside down, Qin Yu sighed in his heart. However, this kind of thing is not unique in remote mountainous areas, he has done it before.
"Okay then." After a difficult ideological struggle, Lu Dazhuang finally agreed.
"Great!" Qin Yu became excited, "The class I teach, there is one more student!" β
Lu Qingqian's face finally showed a smile, restoring the innocence and cuteness of the little girl.
Seeing that Qin Yu was still a little shy, he felt like a child daughter-in-law. But this is the little girl's mind, and when she grows up and is sensible, it is estimated that there will be some changes.
"This is the soap for your family, every household has ......" Qin Yu took out the soap again, "Qingqian, you go to school a few days later than the black eggs, I will make up for you on the weekend." β
"Thank you, sir." Lu Dazhuang said.
"It's the weekend, so I'll give you two days off." Walking out of Lu Dazhuang's house, Qin Yu said to the students, "Everyone can go home and continue classes next Monday." β
Several students have been following Qin Yu for a long time, and they have gradually accepted the concept of 'week', isn't it Mu Xiu and Xun Xiu? "Han Law" records that the officials take a bath every five days, and they rest to wash and bathe.
They felt that Qin Yu chose to rest every five days because he followed the Han etiquette.
And it's a two-day off, which is much more relaxed than the current emperor's three-day vacation in a month.

Ying Tian.
Forbidden city.
Fengtian Temple.
"Your Majesty, the minister wants to participate in the King of Shu." An imperial historian stepped forward and said. As a speech official, the main responsibility is to admonish, participate in all kinds of unjudicial officials and even members of the royal family, and those who are afraid of offending people will not be able to do this official position.
"What, you want to visit our son?" Zhu Yuanzhang was surprised, "Say, what did he do?" β
"Your Majesty, Zhu Chun, the king of Shu, sells a thing called soap on the street on Qianmen Street. As a child of the royal family, the king of Shu did business, which insulted the royal majesty. The Imperial Historian said.
"Zhu Chun is selling things on the street, can you see clearly?" Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't believe it when he heard this. In feudal society, the status of businessmen is extremely low, and Zhu Chun has indeed lost the royal face by doing this, and it is easy for the old Zhu family to become the laughing stock of the people.
"Wei Chen can see it clearly, the king of Shu is still selling on the street with his servants? attracted the crowd to point fingers, saying that the royal family had been reduced to a businessman, and that the Ming Dynasty had been poor, and the prince was going to come out and show his face...... Those words were so ugly that Weichen really didn't dare to learn them from the emperor. β
"Your Majesty, the King of Shu can't go unpunished for doing this!" As soon as the words of the imperial historian fell, a deacon of the household department immediately stood up and said, "The king of Shu, as a prince, is selling on the street, not only losing the royal face, but also making us household officials lose face!" The officials of the household department are not so incompetent, and they can't even come up with the money for royal food and clothing. β
"The King of Shu did this, it is indeed a little ......," Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Erhu, give us the King of Shu...... Wait a minute! β
Suddenly, his heart moved: businessman's behavior? Wasn't LΓΌ Buwei also a businessman back then?
Mr. Qin is equivalent to Guiguzi, and can teach talents like Su Qin, Zhang Yi, Sun Bin Pang Juan, Bai Qi, Meng Tian, and LΓΌ Buwei. And our emperor Zhu Chun is going to be Lu Buwei soon?
"You guys are waiting here, let's go and see for ourselves." β
"Your Majesty, the old minister doesn't think it's necessary for you to go in person. Although the king of Shu betrayed the royal majesty by selling on the street, it was not a big mistake, and he just called over and reprimanded him so that he would not commit it again. Lu Chang, the head of the household, proposed.
"You know what?" Zhu Yuanzhang ignored it, you are an old stubborn, how do you know the ambitions of young people now? "Lu Chang, Gao Qi, you two go with us."
"Yes!" The two courtiers said.
β¦β¦
Soon, the three of them changed into civilian clothes, followed by Erhu, and came to Qianmen Street.
At a glance, I saw a sea of people in front of me, and the water around a stall at the head of the bridge was impassable. The crowd really whispered in private, saying that the prince had actually sold things on the street, which was really unseen for eternity, and it was suspected that the household department could not even afford the officials' salaries.
"Take a look, take a look, the soap made by the King of Shu himself, the soap ball is a throwaway in front of our soap! Produced by the royal family, it must be a high-quality product! In front of the stall, a small servant in the Shu Wangfu was shouting hard.
Whenever he shouted a little quieter because of his dry mouth, he would be secretly kicked by Zhu Chun next to him.
