Chapter 16 The Soap Sensation
Saying that, when the dean returned home, he called his wife and said
Madame, look at what good things your husband has brought you
Madame asked suspiciously, looking at the pink squares placed in a beautiful box on the table
"Master, what is this thing?"
The dean said with a smile
"Madam, this is a gift from a student, saying that it is Western soap, and I heard that it is better than the previous pancreas. Madame was surprised when she heard this, she had never touched this kind of thing before, and she didn't know what this kind of thing was for.
"Master, I don't know what this thing is for, please tell me, I also want to know what it is for."
The dean looked at his wife with a smile and said
Actually, he didn't know how to use it.
"Madam, my student said that it is used for bathing and washing hands, and the effect is better than that of the previous pancreas."
The dean couldn't wait to arrange for his subordinates to prepare hot water, saying that he wanted to try the effect of this Western soap.
When they had placed the washing tools in the courtyard, the dean went to the basin, put his hand into it, and rubbed it gently
When he was done, he took out a white towel and wiped his hands, and said to the woman
"Madame, Madame, come and see."
"Master, what's wrong? Is this thing hot? "
Madame asked suspiciously
"No, no, no, this thing is cool, very comfortable"
"Then why is the master so excited?"
"Because, my students say, this thing is a very good thing to bathe, and it's very good for the skin, and it also strengthens the body's resistance. And that's what this block does. "
"Oh, so amazing?"
"Well, yes, my student said, this block can also be used to make balms, which are very good, work better, and can be applied all over the body"
"Huh? It was so good."
The woman cried out in astonishment
"Yes, my student also said that it was made especially for you, madame."
"Haha, thank you so much, students, in this way, don't I have a few more caring people?"
"Yes, yes, so don't refuse, madam."
Madame couldn't wait to arrange for someone to prepare hot water, saying that she wanted to try the effect of this Western soap.
When the dean brought the soap to the tub, the lady immediately took off her clothes and sat down, but at this time, the dean suddenly hesitated.
"Master, help me."
Madame urged, but the dean was slow to act. Madame shouted angrily
"Master, do you want to help or not?"
The dean walked over slowly and gently poured the soap into the palm of his hand. Madame looked at the soap, her eyes immediately lit up, and she said immediately
Master, it's amazing, this Western soap really works. Sir, wipe my back quickly, it's very comfortable.
Looking at Madame's expression of enjoyment, the corners of the dean's mouth hooked up a sinister smile.
Wait, ma'am!
The dean looked at Madame and slowly wiped the soap from her back.
When the silky touch hit, Madame immediately closed her eyes.
"It works well!"
The dean's wife looked at herself in the mirror and silently admired in her heart. I can clearly feel that my whole body is relaxed and clean, and my skin has indeed changed a lot and is more tender and smoother than before. It is as if a baby has just been born, it is very healthy, and it also exudes a faint fragrance of peach blossoms.
Early the next morning, the dean's wife came to the inner courtyard of the prefect with a spring look with an unused box of soap, and the lady came to the inner house of the mansion, took out the gifts that had been prepared, and shared them with her friend Mrs. Wang, "Sister Wang, this is a good thing I just got, for you." "
Mrs. Wang opened the box, a piece of pink soap appeared in front of her, and she said with a smile: "Oh, what kind of treasure is this, I have never seen it"
"Sister Wang, come and touch my hand, it's slippery and fragrant!"
Madame's words made Mrs. Wang interested, she suspiciously picked up Mrs. Dean's hand and put it on the tip of her nose and sniffed it, a faint fragrance immediately wafted away, after smelling this fragrance, her mood immediately felt much more relaxed, and the whole person was also full of energy, she asked in surprise: "What is this?" It smells so good! "
The dean's wife smiled proudly and said, "This is Western soap, which is more precious and easy to use than pancreas." "
Mrs. Wang nodded and said, "Well, it's really good." However, it is better to leave such a valuable thing for your own use, and I dare not take away the love of others. "
Mrs. Dean shook her head and resolutely objected: "No, the fragrance and color are the most suitable for you, and the relationship between the two of us, of course, good things have to be shared with you, and this can also be used for niece Lin'er."
Hearing what the dean's wife said, Mrs. Wang no longer shirked, after all, the child was the flesh that fell from the mother's body, and she was reluctant to watch the child suffer.
The dean's wife was also very happy to see that she had succeeded in convincing Mrs. Wang.
Slowly a thing called Western soap began to circulate among rich wives and young ladies, but no matter how many shops the family ran through, they did not find anything to sell, and the legendary thing called Western soap used in bathing was specially looked for in the fang market in Fucheng, but no one was seen selling it.
Just when everyone was disappointed, another exciting news came that the dean's wife knew where to find Western soap. After inquiry, I learned that the production method of Western soap is very complicated, and the secret recipe is only in the hands of a very small number of people, which is a luxury item that only a few people have the opportunity to use, and it is difficult to see it on the market.
At night, Dean Liu hurriedly met with several bosses, all of whom inquired about where the soap came from, and if they couldn't sell the soap, they would catch fire in the backyard, hoping that he would help ask.
"This thing!" Dean Liu touched his beard and smiled, "Western soap! I also just knew, it's quite rare, and I don't know if it's there, so I'll have to ask my student."
"What?" Hearing this, several people were surprised
"What? Am I going to lie to you? Dean Liu said with a smile, "You wait a while, I'll ask someone to call him and ask him personally."
"That's great!" The rest of the people applauded.
Seeing them so happy, Dean Liu secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
These people are all Tongren's leading figures, and he can't be easily offended.
After Dean Liu's entourage left, those people fidgeted, staring at the door all the time.
"Why haven't you come yet?" Someone worried.
At this time, I suddenly felt movement at the door, and quickly stood up, looked at the door, and saw a handsome young man standing outside the door.
"Dean, are you looking for me?" Wu Yunlin asked respectfully.
Dean Liu nodded and said, "Well, the teacher called you over to discuss something with you." "
Liu Yunjie was overjoyed: "Are you looking for me to ask for Western soap?" "
"Where did you get this soap, and do you still have it?" Dean Liu asked tentatively.
"Well, this one!" Wu Yunlin hesitated for a moment and said, "Dean, I don't have much of this Western soap, but if you need it, I can give it to you."
When the dean saw a few people next to him constantly giving him a look, he knew that if he couldn't take a few pieces for them today, he was afraid that it would not be over.
"Really?" Hearing Wu Yunlin say this, Dean Liu was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him.
"Dean, you're welcome," Wu Yunlin replied humbly.
Several people looked at each other, and they all sighed, but they didn't expect that they would have to come to a few pieces after working hard for a long time, alas!
"Dean, don't worry," Wu Yunlin said with a smile, "My Western soap is indeed hard to come by, but there should be enough to sell after a while."
"Oh, why is that?" Dean Liu was puzzled, they were all about to die of sorrow, they didn't expect this young man to say such a thing.
"This" Wu Yunlin scratched his head,
"This Western soap needs to be shipped from my house in Songtao Hall, and I would like to ask you to help distribute it when the time comes." To prevent others from seeing the money, he decided to build a soap workshop in his lair to prevent others from prying eyes.
When a few people heard this, they felt a burst of ecstasy in their hearts, they didn't expect that there would be such a good thing, if they could sell Western soap, they would be able to get a huge amount of money.
"In that case, I'll thank you for everyone first!" Dean Liu hugged his fists and thanked him,
"When those Western soaps arrive in Tongren, we will personally lead everyone to pick them up.
"Haha! Good idea! The crowd cheered in unison, "Great idea!" "
Wu Yunlin smiled shyly, in fact, he knew that the soap business was developing slowly on his own, not to mention, the main thing was that the wealth was moving, and he decided to make a profit for unnecessary trouble.
"By the way, Yunlin, how much silver does your Western soap sell for, a piece?" Dean Liu asked again.
"One tael of silver!" Wu Yunlin said.
"One or two!" The crowd exclaimed that the price was much lower than they had planned.
"Hehe, this price is already very fair, in fact, it has already made a lot of money Wu Yunlin thought in his heart.
