Lan Bin replied, "Cousin, do you know my soap business?"

"Know something!" Chang Sen nodded, and said suspiciously, "Cousin, what are you asking this?"

He knew that when the soap business of Lanfu and even the soap business swept Nanjing and the city, Changfu also sent people to inquire and thought about intervening in the soap business.

It's just that Changfu inquired about the soap business, and it is the business of Lanfu, and there is still a royal family vaguely. I pressed down the idea of intervening.

This time, he came to Lanfu to intercede with Lan Bin and take Changfu to do business together, which was also stimulated by the soap business in Lanfu.

That's right, it's stimulated.

Think about it before, the Lan Mansion and the Chang Mansion were the same, there was no industry, and most of the income in the house depended on the imperial court's income and the output of the rewarded fields. In order to maintain a rich and decent life in the house, for the sake of the next generation, he often took risks to commit murder and encroach on people's land.

It also often provoked the impeachment of hundreds of officials, and the reprimand of the East Palace and the emperor.

But now!

Lanfu was first a glass business, making a lot of money, and then a soap business, and tens of thousands of taels, tens of thousands of taels of silver.

The most important thing is that both businesses still have the participation of the royal family, which not only makes money, but also enters the eyes of the emperor.

is also a relative of the royal family, who can stand it?

Lan Bin smiled, "Cousin, the business I told you about is related to the soap business?"

Something to do with the soap business?

What do you mean?

Could it be that Lan Bin wants to divide the Changfu soap business?

Chang Sen's heart moved, and his eyes became a little hot when he looked at Lan Bin, it was rumored that the soap business in Lan Mansion had earned more than 100,000 taels in just one month.

Although the more than 100,000 taels may be shared with the royal family, it is also a business that makes money every day.

If the Changfu gets a copy, then...

Thinking about it, he couldn't help but stammer, "Cousin, are you going to..."

"That's right, I plan to hand over the supply of raw materials for the soap business to Changfu!" Lan Bin nodded.

He originally planned to supply the raw materials and get it in his hands, so as to produce and sell it himself, so as not to be stuck.

But he took into account that the business plate of the Blue Mansion is getting bigger and bigger, and the royal family is not usually used.

Especially when the royal family is still in charge of Zhu Yuanzhang, there are fewer places to rely on.

It can only be used when it is critical.

In this way, if Yongchang Houfu wants to protect its business, it needs allies.

And Changfu is the best ally.

Chang Sen was stunned and said in disappointment: "It turned out to be the supply of raw materials?!"

"Cousin, you don't think I'm going to share your soap business, do you?" Lan Bin was stunned, looked at Chang Sen, reacted a little, and said with a smile.

Chang Sen was poked in the center, his old face turned red, and he quickly denied, "No, no! I didn't mean that!"

"Cousin, in fact, it's not impossible to be a member of the Changfu soap business. It's just that I don't have many soap businessmen, and at most I can only share one part of the regular government!" Lan Bin said again.

One percent?

Chang Sen's mind moved, and he remembered Lan Bin's glass business, and said tentatively: "Could it be that the soap business is the same as the glass business, and the royal family has the lion's share?"

"Almost!"

Lan Bin nodded: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince accounts for fifty percent of the soap business, His Royal Highness the King of Shu accounts for thirty percent of the soap business, and I only have two percent in my hands."

Chang Sen originally came to see Lan Bin, but he didn't divide the soap business into Changfu as he guessed, so he cut off the idea of being a soap businessman. Now that he heard that his brother-in-law was the majority, he didn't dare to have the idea of being a soap businessman.

Although the soap business is fragrant, the kinship with the Blue Mansion and the East Palace is even more fragrant.

If there is a gap between the relatives of Lanfu and Donggong because of the soap business, it will be more than worth the loss.

Especially the nobles of Changfu, the real foundation is in the title.

Although the soap business can get rich for a while, the title is retired with the Ming Dynasty.

To put it mildly, future generations will not be angry, and no matter how much money is earned in the soap business, it will be lost. And with knighthoods, it's different.

Even if the descendants of future generations are not angry, if they have a title, they will have status and wealth. Nor can anyone die of hunger.

Thinking about it, he nodded: "Cousin, let's talk about the supply of raw materials for the soap business!"

"Lime, lard, etc., which are raw materials for soap and soap."

Lan Bin bowed slightly: "Daming has a lot of minerals such as lime and alkali noodles, and Changfu can come forward to buy lime and other minerals, and can also support the Zhuangzi Zhuang households under the name of Changfu to raise pigs, plant flowers, and so on."

"As long as the supply of raw materials in Changfu is done, there will be as many soap workshops as there are!"

"Win without losing money!"

Soap, soap, is his unique business, and it is also a consumable.

With the tens of millions of people in the Ming Dynasty today, it is enough to raise the fat and fat people in the soap workshop.

As for whether there will be competitors in the future, not to mention that Lanfu's soap business has already made a name for itself, even Lanfu is not muddy.

If you dare to come to the tiger's mouth to grab food, let it taste the power of the Blue Mansion's iron fist.

"Cousin, tell me more about it!" Chang Sen had never done business, and he was confused when he heard it, but he only remembered the words "steady profit and no loss", and said with great interest.

Lan Bin impatiently broke up the supply of raw materials, including the purchase of related minerals, and told Chang Sen about it, and finally said, "Cousin, do you remember?"

"The more I listened, the more confused I became!" Chang Sen thought about it seriously.

Burst!

Lan Bin almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood, looked at Chang Sen, and said weakly: "Forget it, cousin, you still find two clever servants to come to the mansion to do business with Lan Wu."

"Cousin, you should have done this a long time ago!" Chang Sen patted Lan Bin on the shoulder and said in surprise.

"You go away, I don't want to talk to you now!"

Lan Bin rolled his eyes, pushed Chang Sen's hand on his shoulder away, and said, "Cousin, since Chang Fu intends to do business, it would be better for you to read more and learn more about business!"

"Cousin, don't think that if you enter the palace to accompany Xiongying to study, you can pretend to be a scholar. I used to read better than you!" Chang Sen pouted.

Lan Bin was choked for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, it was true, the original body had only seen Chang Sen messing around in the noble circle before, and he was envious, and followed Chang Sen behind his buttocks.

But I didn't see Chang Sen reading and practicing martial arts.

As a result, the text cannot be completed.

Touching his nose, he bluntly diverted the topic and said, "Cousin, stay at the house for dinner at night, and I'll let the kitchen prepare!"

"No, I still have to go back and deal with my eldest brother!"

Chang Sen looked at the sky outside, shook his head, exchanged a few words with Lan Bin, and left.

Seeing Chang Sen away, Lan Bin turned back to the main hall, summoned Lan Wu, and instructed, "Lan Wu, you have someone prepare some fresh eggs, cream, milk, sugar, jam and other ingredients for me."

"By the way, bring me the craftsman from the house again, I want to build something!"

"Young Master, what are you?" Lan Wu was a little puzzled and puzzled.

Lan Bin waved his hand and said, "Don't ask, just do what I tell you, just do it!"

"Yes, young master!"

Lan Wu didn't ask too much, turned around and went down to arrange it.
