"Master Tong, has the rubber arrived?" Ren Baqian had just heard that more than a dozen ox carts full of wooden barrels had arrived at the Ministry of Industry, so he hurried over, and just happened to see Tong Zhenye and the bullock carts full of wooden barrels in the yard.

"Lord Ren came just in time. Tong Zhenye smiled: "Let's see if it's what you want? ”

Ren Baqian rubbed his palms and stepped forward to open the lid of a wooden barrel, which was full of milky white glue, unlike the rubber that had been dried last time, the rubber juice picked up this time was directly sealed in a wooden barrel, and then sent to Lancheng all the way to Lancheng.

"That's it!" Ren Baqian laughed after smelling the smell, he finally waited for so long.

With this rubber, a lot of things are starting to get started.

"These rubbers, send a cart to Zizhu Academy, and the rest to the Animal Garden. Ren Baqian made arrangements before asking Tong Zhenye: "Is the soap ready?"

"According to what you said, make a batch, just when you come over, go and have a look with the old man. Tong Zhenye said with a smile on his face.

Pancreas, it is said that the price in Izumo is not low, let alone in Daiyao, and only a very few people can afford it.

But I didn't expect this kind of thing to be so easy to make, as long as you know how to make it, you can find a few people to make pancreas that can be used.

And according to Ren Hachizen, mashed petals are added to it, so that these soaps can be made in several colors, and they also have the fragrance of flower petals, which looks much better than the pancreas sold by the people of Izumo Province.

This made Tong Zhenye quite complacent.

Although this pancreas was made according to Ren Yachi's words, this is also the merit of the Ministry of Industry.

You must know that Da Yao has too few things, and every time he has something that he doesn't have before, it makes him feel excited.

Ren Baqian followed Tong Zhenye out of the city to a newly built courtyard on the outskirts of the city, and the courtyard walls and houses in the courtyard were made of red bricks.

Someone saw the two of them coming here with their guards, and immediately welcomed the two inside.

In a larger warehouse, Ren Baqian saw the freshly made pancreas, which according to Ren Baqian's words was soap.

This kind of pancreas is ground with the pancreas of a jumping sheep, mixed with plant ash, animal fat, and mixed to form a thick, plus the powder of the flower and pressed into pieces, and then placed on a rack for drying and then cut into pieces.

When Ren Baqian came to the warehouse, he saw a large chunk of pancreas on the side, and a sink under the shelf to direct the dripping liquid into the bucket.

This liquid is glycerin, a by-product of soap making, and is more important than the soap itself.

Glycerin can be made into nitroglycerin, as well as diatomaceous manganese earth explosives and colloidal explosives, and even smokeless gunpowder.

Of course, Ren Baqian was not prepared to use this explosive, which was extremely prone to explosions, in war. There are no secrets in the world that can be kept forever, and the birth of explosives and gunpowder is a great threat to the sparsely populated but powerful Gu tribes.

If explosives and gunpowder were developed, the advantages of the ancient tribes would be greatly reduced, and the disadvantages of sparse population would be extremely obvious.

So Ren Baqian is ready to keep this thing firmly in his hands.

If it weren't for the fact that explosives and gunpowder were a hurdle that could not be bypassed by the development of science and technology, Ren Baqian would not want to make them.

Ren Baqian walked around the warehouse, and picked up a few pieces of soap that had been cut next to him, a total of three aromas, one of which was still very popular with the empress, and the production was a little rough, but it was not bad for just beginning.

Ren Baqian first asked people to make a basin of water, washed their hands with soap to see the effect, and confirmed that there was no problem before turning his head and asking. "Master Copper, how are you going to sell this soap?"

"I don't know......" Tong Zhenye shook his head: "Before Jing Yan, there was no precedent for the imperial court to sell things. So this thing is made, but how to sell it depends on His Majesty's decision. ”

Ren Baqian nodded slightly, and threw the soap to the guards behind him.

"Master Copper, these glycerins, I'll let people deal with them when I go back. "Ren 8000. The production of soap will inevitably produce a large amount of glycerin, which is used as a solvent except for a few glycerins, and the rest must be processed somewhere.

This kind of thing, he is not prepared to hand over to others.

"Is this thing still useful?" Tong Zhenye had wanted to ask about this for a long time.

"Some work, but it doesn't work better. Ren Baqian waved his hand.

Then the two of them went to several other warehouses, which were used to dry and grind the pancreas, grind the flowers, and heat the fat to make soap, and a large open space was dedicated to burning plant ashes.

Although it seems that the place is not small, there are not many people, only a few dozen people.

"You can print some patterns on the soap, find a carpenter to make a few molds, and print the patterns when pressing, so that it looks more delicate. And the factory can also be expanded, now the number of people is too small, and the number of production is too small.

This thing is a consumable, and even if the factory is expanded tenfold, it can be sold.

If it really doesn't work, you can still find a way to sell it to Great Xia. ”

"Lord Ren has a trade route to sell to Great Xia?" asked Tong Zhenye.

"Contacting. "Ren Baqian has already contacted Su Qing through Qinglian, and after that, he can also open up another road and send a caravan composed of the Jing clan to Great Xia.

But within a year or two of Great Xia, there will inevitably be civil strife, and it is difficult to say what the situation will be at that time.

In troubled times, sales of non-essential items such as soap, glass, and silver mirrors were limited.

However, when the cloud country is defeated, it will be a good dumping ground for goods.

After Ren Baqian finished the soap factory, he returned to the palace and handed over the soap to the empress: "Your Majesty, this is made by the Ministry of Industry." ”

"Soap?" the empress picked up a piece of soap and examined it in her hand, straight and angled, with marks left by cutting.

"Yes, the minister tried, and it was about the same as expected, better than Izumo's pancreas. ”

"That's good!" said the empress with a smile. The days when all goods were brought by foreign caravans began to fade away.

Later, Ren Baqian talked to the empress about the manufacture and sale of soap.

"What do you think?" For such a question, the empress's first thought was to ask Ren Baqian.

"Establish a commercial department to manage the factories and establish sales channels, and then hand them over to the imperial court at the end of the year according to a certain percentage, and the other part will be used to expand the factories. Ren Baqian said casually.

"I can't think of anyone else who can do it but you. The empress said.

"The minister doesn't have this time, but the minister has an idea, His Majesty will first elect a secretary, and then let the two treasurers of the previous caravan, Tang Feng and Gu Ziheng, be his deputies.

Tang Feng and Gu Ziheng are both old men of the caravan, and they have a certain understanding of this aspect, and as deputies, their abilities are sufficient.

Now there is only one soap factory, so I use this for them to practice, and when they get acquainted with it, the others can also start.

In the past, some of the things that were needed by the ministries were allocated internally.

In the future, as long as it has commodity characteristics, it can be classified under the Department of Commerce, and the Ministry of Households will allocate funds to the ministries, and the ministries will then purchase from the Department of Commerce, and the Department of Commerce will remove the cost and then hand over the money to the Ministry of Households in proportion.

That way, everything is on track. "Ren 8000.

"That's the business model of the planet, right? But if you do that, the commercial department will have too much power in the future. The empress held her chin and pondered.

Although there is nothing in the hands of the Department of Commerce now, the empress knows that if it is according to what Ren Baqian said, the Department of Commerce will inevitably become one of the most powerful departments in Dayao after it develops.

At that time, it was a separate part of the six departments of Dayao, the Ministry of Commerce.

"Therefore, the candidate for the Secretary of Commerce, Your Majesty must choose it well, ability, loyalty, and all of them are indispensable. "Ren 8000.

"This secretary, you should be in charge first, set up the stall, and let someone take over after everything is on the right track. The empress looked at Ren Baqiandao.
