Chapter 114: Killing in the rivers and lakes for fame and fortune
The morning light pierces the earth, and the sky appears a morning red!
After Liu Yi got up, he didn't go to the backyard to practice as usual, but just did two simple chest expansion exercises, then came to the study, spread out the rice paper, and drew a picture.
It didn't take long for Dongfang Undefeated to push the door in, and when he saw him drawing some inexplicable things on the paper, he couldn't help frowning and said, "What are you digging drums here?" Hurry up and accompany me out to practice!"
Liu Yi didn't answer her words directly, but pointed to the ink tray next to him with a brush and said, "You came just in time, help me sharpen the ink!"
Dongfang Undefeated saw that he couldn't even hold a brush, so he couldn't help but laugh dumbly: "I heard me right? When did you give up martial arts and practice? Just the handwriting you wrote is less than a three-year-old Mengtong!"
Although Liu Ai is a modern college student, he has never practiced calligraphy, and he is naturally not good at writing, and he is not angry at the undefeated run of the East, and said with a faint smile: "I don't joke with you, I'll do serious things!"
Dongfang Undefeated saw that he was serious, and no longer shirked, and said while grinding ink: "The most important thing at the moment is how to control these big and small gangs, instead of scribbling like you!"
"I'm not scribbling, you'll understand when I'm done. Let's not talk about this, how is the situation on Shihan's side?" Liu Yi already knew that he couldn't understand her, so he changed the subject.
"Don't worry about this, Brother Zhang and I have already passed down the Black Wood Order and the Green Forest Arrow, so that the disciples of the Sun Moon God Sect and those Green Forest heroes will fully cooperate with Shi Han!"
After Dongfang Undefeated said this, he added, "Don't say it, your Yang Shihan is really a good player in the world." In just three days, he won the eighteen rudders of the Blue Dragon Society!"
"Of course, you don't look at Yang Shihan's background, he has been familiar with military books since he was a child, and he is brave, so it is natural to deal with these gangs!"
With the words, Zhang Danfeng also walked in, and saw that Liu Yi had already painted there and couldn't understand it, and said in surprise: "Brother Liu, what are you painting?" How come I've never seen one?"
Liu Yi said with a smile: "It seems that I don't want to explain." I can't relieve the doubts in your hearts, I want to ask you, Brother Zhang assisted the Iron Alliance Lord to control the green forest, and the Sun and Moon God Sect of the Oriental Girl also controlled many gangs. What are you doing this for?"
Dongfang Undefeated smiled: "Jianghu is conscripted and killed." Of course, the tip of the knife adds blood for profit. Only the more gangs you control. The more dividends we collect, only in this way can we have the financial resources to develop our power!"
Liu Ai had already asked with a smile: "Then let me ask you another question, what does your Sun Moon Divine Sect rely on to make money, and what do those small gangs and factions rely on to make money?"
Dongfang Undefeated said: "Didn't you ask knowingly? The main source of wealth for our gangs is naturally to provide protection for those merchants. Received from the collection of premiums. And my Sun Moon God Sect can not only protect those merchants, but also those small gangs, so I have more financial resources!"
Zhang Danfeng said with a smile: "There are also those of us who say it nicely called the heroes of the green forest, and those who don't say it well are robbers, who go to rob some rich people from time to time or something, and these rich people will naturally ask some gangs who know martial arts to protect them, and the source of wealth will come!"
Dongfang Undefeated asked a little strangely: "What does this painting have to do with the rivers and lakes? Could it be that you can control the rivers and lakes through the things you paint?"
Liu Yiji nodded and said: "You're right, I really want to use these to control the rivers and lakes, you just said that the root of the battle between the rivers and lakes is interests, as long as we give these gangs enough benefits, they still have to go with us?"
Dongfang Undefeated heard him say this, stretched out his hand and touched his forehead: "You can't be sick, right? We have worked hard to fight the country, don't we just want to draw some dividends from them? Listen to what you mean, not only do we not draw dividends, but we want to give them money?"
"What I'm going to do now, although it's not really sending money, it's almost the same as sending money!"
Dongfang Undefeated heard him say this, and his heart was even more strange, and he said coquettishly: "Don't sell Guanzi, if you don't say anything, I won't grind ink!"
Liu Yi has said with a straight face: "What I am making now is something that everyone in Huaxia can use, our Huaxia country has a population of hundreds of millions, as long as this thing is done, it will be a source of money!"
Dongfang Undefeated's eyes widened, and he said a little dissatisfied: "You said it or didn't say it, you just say it straightforwardly, what are you going to do?"
"Soap!" Liu Yi replied simply.
"Soap?" As Liu Yi had expected, neither of them had heard of this thing, and they were surprised almost at the same time when they heard these two words.
"That's right, it's soap! If you take this thing for bathing, it can wash your skin white and clean, and if you use it to wash clothes, you only need to rub it lightly to clean it, which is very convenient!" Liu Ai said with a smile.
In ancient times, there was no soap, and the plants used for bathing and laundry were soaphorns, which were extremely inconvenient to use.
Liu Yi didn't explain anything to her, because before the thing was made, the explanation was very pale and weak. Zhang Danfeng seemed to understand a little and asked, "What does Brother Liu mean, you want to sell the things you have done through these gangs?"
Liu Yi nodded and said, "That's right, but they sell more than just soap. I'm also going to renovate the Lingxiao Pavilion, which will add a lot of service facilities, and after a while, you'll understand. I'm going to sell these two things to the whole country through these gangs!"
As he spoke, Liu Yi had already finished drawing the drawings, and asked the two soldiers in the house to go out to buy some caustic soda and palm oil to come back, and asked the other two to buy and sell only the fired large clay pots and come back.
Dongfang Undefeated smiled and said: "Why do you want so much palm oil? We can't finish eating!"
Liu Yi has smiled and said: "This thing is not used to eat, but to make soap, how can palm oil and caustic soda be boiled together, how can soap be made!"
Then he asked Zhang Danfeng to find a few trustworthy brothers, and in the backyard of the Houfu, according to the drawings, first make the stove foundation, and then put the clay pot on it, and make a wooden simple mixer on the top of the mud tank.
Liu Yi has first poured the water into the clay pot, then put it into the caustic soda, and then began to make a fire until the caustic soda is completely melted, slowly pour in the palm oil, while heating, while stirring, until the water is divided, take out the upper layer of soap, put it into the pre-made mold to solidify.
When it was completely cooled and solidified, he divided it into small pieces one by one, picked up a small piece of it and handed it to Dongfang Undefeated and said, "You take it and try washing your hands and see if there is any difference?"
Dongfang Undefeated held it in his hand, feeling greasy, and frowned: "Can you wash your hands with this thing?
Liu Zhi smiled and said: "Good things have to be tried Fang Zhi!" Then he asked Xiao Zhao to bring a basin of water, Dongfang Undefeated wet his hands according to what Liu Yi had said, rubbed soap, and suddenly there were a lot of bubbles on his hands, and he felt slippery and greasy.
Then she washed her hands with water, and sure enough, they were much whiter and tenderer, and when they rubbed their hands together, the oily feeling was gone, and this kind of thing was much better than her usual pancreas.
Liu Ai had then asked Xiao Zhao to bring a dirty piece of clothes and let her try it, and as Liu Ai had said, he washed a piece of clothing in three or five clicks, and everyone couldn't help but be excited when they saw this.
Good things are naturally not worried about sales, Zhang Danfeng and Dongfang Undefeated also believe in his words, this thing can bring benefits to all sects and factions, as long as he can grasp the source of benefits, he is not afraid that those people in the rivers and lakes will not listen to him.
After Liu Yi had completed the experiment, he asked Liao Changfeng to take people to find a workshop to prepare for large-scale production, and told them that they must pay attention to confidentiality.
After handing over and waiting, Liu Ying had already asked people to withdraw these things, and then returned to the study with Dongfang Undefeated, Zhang Danfeng and Xiao Zhao.
Liu Yi has said: "Shihan, they are fighting the world outside, we can't be idle in Sizhou City, this soap is just our first step." In the second step, I want to transform Lingxiao Pavilion into a comprehensive service place and promote this model to the whole country!"
After finishing speaking, he took out another drawing from the drawer, slowly unfolded it, pointed to the building on the drawing and said: "I am going to set the first floor as a blockage, the second floor as a restaurant, the third floor as a bathing center, and the fourth floor as a guest room!"
Dongfang Undefeated continued: "Your soap is still a little interesting, these things are available in some big markets, nothing special?"
"It's not special if it's separated, but it's different if it's together. Don't you see those gamblers gambling day and night? Do you want to eat something when you're hungry? Do you want to treat yourself when you win a gamble? Do you want to take a bath when you're tired of gambling? Do you want to sleep after gambling for a long time? I want them to spend all their money in our own shop!"
Liu Yi had already said this, and said slightly, "Of course, of course, my casino is a little different from other casinos, and I will have a special person to provide them with free tea service." My restaurant is different from other restaurants, and I promise that the dishes we serve will never be available in other restaurants. Our bathing center is not as simple as just bathing, I will ask some maids to provide them with massage services!"
Zhang Danfeng continued: "Lingxiao in Sizhou City is our head office, as for those branches, it is not that anyone can open them if they want to, they have to be opened by the seven hundred and twenty gangs with bronze medals, am I right?"
Dongfang Undefeated said a little worriedly: "It's just that the initial investment is so huge, I'm afraid those small gangs don't have the strength to start it!"
"You can rest assured that I don't have a rich bank in Sizhou City? As long as we give enough interest, we can let those powerful gangs deposit money into our bank, and then lend the money to those weak gangs and implement installment payment!" (To be continued......
PS: I'm sorry, the automatic control work done by Kendo, the object of the service is a sad sugar factory, which has a strong seasonality, and this time is relatively busy, so the first two days were interrupted, don't blame!
