Without waiting for the big fat orange to react, Sun Miaoqing blessed her body, raised her chin, and turned out of the Heart Cultivation Hall with confidence.

Su Peisheng, who was waiting on the side, looked helpless, this sincere concubine was still energetic.

"Your Majesty, the matter of Concubine Cheng Niangniang ......"

Big Fat Orange drank tea slowly, "Don't worry about her, I'll see what she can toss." ”

Chuxiu Palace

Sun Miaoqing first hugged Hongday, and when he fell asleep, she let Rose and Mama Li guard on the side.

I turned my head and went back to the dormitory, kicked my feet as usual, waited for the bottom of the flower pot to one side, found a comfortable position, and half lay on the kang.

Lily of the valley stood behind her and massaged her shoulders, and Liuli brought a pot of milk tea. With the sweet fragrance of longan, he poured a bowl and handed it to Sun Miaoqing.

"Niangniang and the emperor have been talking for so long, they must be tired. This longan roasted milk was prepared by the slave maid when she went out, and it was just right to drink it at this time. ”

Sun Miaoqing sat up a little straighter, took two sips, and then casually put it on the kang table next to him, "Put more longan, the taste is a little sweet." ”

Liuli said, "Yes, next time the slave will let them let them go less." ”

Lily of the valley said, "Niangniang, what should we do next?" ”

"The emperor refused to give you this plaque, nor did he agree to give it to those princes and ministers. These days, the toffee boiled out of the workshop has saved more than 1,000 catties. ”

"And there will be more in the future, as you ask. If you can't sell it, it's not a small amount. ”

No wonder Lily of the Valley is worried, Sun Miaoqing set her goal extremely ambitious from the beginning. said that after the business was done, it would produce 1,000 catties per day.

In these years, cattle are an extremely important means of production, and for the poor people, a cow is worth more than a human life.

Although the capital is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, there are few cows in a village. Just a few heads, and half of them are male, and they don't produce milk at all.

The remaining half of the cow will not be sold until the calf has drunk it.

Milk is not easy to transport, so these days, after receiving milk, I rent a house nearby, boil it into toffee and send it to the store.

Scattered collection can only be a small fight, which does not meet Sun Miaoqing's requirements. Therefore, the uncle of the Zhang family took the initiative to lend a small village in the suburbs of Beijing to Sun Miaoqing for use.

Part of the original house was converted into a workshop, and the rest was used for human habitation. In addition, a piece of land was set aside and a large cowshed was built.

Half of the fields on the Zhuangzi were left for grain, and the remaining half was sprinkled with grass seeds. The entire Zhuangzi has hundreds of hectares of land, which can support hundreds of cattle at most. (Cattle also eat grain in addition to grass)

And even if it is hundreds of cows, it is far from enough to meet her small goal of producing 1,000 catties of toffee per day.

After all, cows don't produce milk every day, 365 days a year.

In terms of manpower, in addition to the farmers in the Zhuangzi, they also found a number of long-term workers in the next village. And specially hired a few, good cattle breeders.

The silver has not yet been seen, but the cost of investment is quite a lot. Although these add up to less than one-tenth of her dowry, they can't be squandered casually.

Sun Miaoqing said, "It's okay, he has a good plan, and I have a wall ladder." Think that without that signboard, there is no other way for this palace? ”

"That's too much to underestimate the main palace!"

Lily of the valley asked curiously, "Do you have any ideas, can you talk to the slaves?" ”

Sun Miaoqing waved at the two of them, "Come over with your ears." ”

Lily of the valley and Liuli leaned in curiously, and nodded in agreement after listening.

But thinking of the emperor's attitude, Liuli said, "But the emperor is there, can it work?" ”

Sun Miaoqing said, "Why not, this palace is not lying." Spread the word out, let my uncle and aunt do it, and the toffee shop in the palace will still open. ”

"Also, the price of a pound of toffee is set at ten taels of silver. Three days before the opening, you can get a 20% discount. ”

Lily of the valley opened her mouth wide in shock, "Ten taels of silver?" ”

"Will anyone buy it if it's so expensive?"

Sun Miaoqing said, "Why not, this palace is still too little." However, considering that I had no experience before, it would not be too late to increase the price if it sold well, so I decided to do so. ”

Lily of the valley and Liuli are unbelievable, Niangniang still wants to increase the price! There are many rich people in Beijing, but they are not stupid. Buying it once is a curiosity, and buying it twice is a face.

But for a long time, who will be the one who is wronged, and the silver does not grow out of thin air!

Sun Miaoqing didn't think ten taels of silver was expensive at all. After all, the cost of toffee is also there.

At this time, the price of wheat is about two taels of silver and one stone, and one stone is about equal to 100 catties in the future. Ten catties of glutinous rice and one catty of wheat can make about four catties of maltose.

Glutinous rice will be more expensive, about two taels and seven for one stone. Food prices vary from place to place.

One hundred catties of glutinous rice, plus ten catties of wheat. Counting the firewood, artificial, etc., the forty catties of maltose made will cost at least three taels of silver.

Add to that milk, preserved fruits, the cost that has been invested, the decoration cost of the storefront, and the taxes to be paid after the operation.

Does ten taels of silver make money? This is obviously a small profit but quick turnover, is it good!

However, in the face of the suspicion of the two, Sun Miaoqing felt that it was for her own money.

It is necessary to popularize to them, what is called advertising, what is called marketing!
