A scholar of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 265

Gu Qing smiled without saying a word and continued to draw the blueprints of the artillery, Wu Mei sat quietly at home, the little phoenix grew bigger and bigger these days, and she didn't want to feel weightless when she sat on her shoulder.

As if aware of Wu Mei's preoccupation, Xiao Fenghuang tilted his head to look at Wu Mei, threw himself into her arms a few times and looked up at his hostess's face.

"Do you feel very lonely?" Wu Mei looked at the little phoenix in her arms, "Is there any kind of you in this world?"

The little phoenix nestled in Wu Mei's arms as if sleeping, looking at its colorful feathers, Wu Mei smiled softly, "You are also a member of our family, the sky is high and the sea is wide, no matter how far you fly in the future, remember that this is you s home."

Little Phoenix moved his body.

After drawing the blueprints, Gu Qing handed them to the servants at home, "Ask Zhang Jie to find a skilled blacksmith to forge these parts."

The servant hurried to work, stretched his numb limbs, and walked all the way to the academy with Yang Sheng, "Old Yang, do you think there are those people in Erxianzhuang?"

"How do I know," Yang Sheng said, "But I think if the people from Shennongjia are really playing tricks, we have a chance, but if we don't investigate like this, it will undoubtedly be a needle in a haystack."

"Maybe." Gu Qing nodded and walked into the academy.

"I won't go in, I'll go home and watch the child." Yang Sheng waved his hand and said.

The academy was still the same as usual, Li Tai was sleeping on the table, drooling all over the table, and patted the table with his hand.

Li Tai opened his eyes and saw Gu Qing coming, then buried his head and went back to sleep.

"Haven't you finished your Kuo Di Zhi?" Gu Qing sat beside Li Tai with a smile.

"Hmm." Li Tai whispered while lying on the table.

Li Zhi walked up with small steps, thinking to see the emperor brother, after seeing Gu Qing, his face was full of joy, "Gu Qing, why are you here?"

"Why can't I come?" Gu Qing looked at Xiao Li Zhi, "His Royal Highness, what have you learned today?"

"I learned a thing called resistance, but I didn't understand it very well." Li Zhi pulled Gu Qing's sleeve, "Is there anything interesting?"

"Yes." Gu Qing looked at Li Zhi, "Let's play rock and scissors, no, how about it?"

"I'm going to get rock-paper-scissors now."

"Hey, no need." Gu Qing stopped Li Zhi, "It's actually very simple. Scissors can cut cloth, cloth can wrap rocks, and rocks can smash scissors, right?"

Li Zhi nodded stupidly.

Gu Qing made patterns with his hands, and taught Li Zhi to play rock-paper-scissors. After listening, Li Zhi smiled and said, "It's simple!"

"Okay!" Gu Qing also became interested, "Then let's play, how about losing a game for a penny?"

"Okay." Li Zhi nodded decisively.

Gu Qing rolled up his sleeves, "Rock! Scissors! Cloth!"

The two made moves at the same time, Li Zhi made scissors, Gu Qing made a rock, "His Royal Highness, you lost."

Li Zhi pouted unconvinced that Naihe had no money on him, and woke Li Tai who was sleeping, "Brother Huang, do you have any money?"

Li Tai had no choice but to take out a piece of money and hand it to Li Zhi, "Play less."

"En!" Li Zhi nodded, and carefully took out a penny from the money bag, "Gu Qing, let's come again."

……

"rock-paper-scissors!"

"Haha!" Li Zhi laughed, "I won!"

Li Tai also lost sleepiness and propped his chin with his hands, watching Li Zhi and Gu Qing playing a game, this game is very interesting, rock beats cloth, book beats rock, rock beats scissors, and it's fun to go back and forth like this.

Fang Yi came straight to see Gu Qingzai, "Gu Qing, I just have a question, I can't figure it out."

"What's the problem?" Gu Qing looked at Fang Yi and interrupted the game with Li Zhi.

"That's it." Fang Yi pointed directly at the location of the drawing on the file, "Why did you build this so-called indoor gymnasium? Is it especially indoors for children to play? We can use this location to build another school."

"I want a place where children can exercise even in rainy days." Gu Qing said, "It seems a bit redundant, but this is what I think."

"Okay, you are the one who decides anyway." Fang Yi put away the file, "Have you heard about it recently? Dali Temple found out that Lu's family attempted to rebel."

Li Tai also nodded, "I already knew that the head of the Lu family will be taken to Chang'an now, and I don't know how the father will deal with it."

"My father is in a pretty good mood these days." Fang Yi said straightly, "Gu Qing, your reading glasses are very useful, and now my father can't do without reading."

When talking about reading glasses, money came to mind, Gu Qingchang sighed, "Fatty, do you have a lot of money recently? Lend me some money."

"I'm not as rich as you." Li Tai picked up the cold tea and drank it, "Since when did you start short of money?"

Gu Qing took out a piece of soap and put it in front of Li Tai, "Fatty, this is a new product in my factory. If you want to be a part of it, the price of friendship is [-] yuan."

"Pfft...cough cough cough cough!" Li Tai coughed with a sip of water in his throat, "One hundred thousand guan! Gu Qing, where did I get the one hundred thousand guan!"

"That's right." Gu Qing pondered, "Who do you think is richer? Whose money do I want to earn..."

"No one in Chang'an has as much money as you." Li Tai said with disgust, "You are so rich, but you are still short of money. I have never seen such a brazen person."

"That's right!" Li Zhi also echoed.

"This is soap?" Fang Yi picked up the soap and wondered, "There was an advertisement in the magazine just released that said soap, so it's this thing, can it really be used for bathing?"

"You can still wash clothes." Gu Qing said.

In Chang'an, the soap made by the factory has finally started to be sold. Soap is a new thing, and the sales of soap are not very good under the propaganda of magazines. Nowadays, people have long been accustomed to the way of washing clothes and bathing. Many people are reluctant to add new things.

A piece of soap is only ten cents, which is already very cheap. The merchants began to have a headache. The factory produced thousands of pieces of soap in half a month. The cost of soap is very low, but even if it is cheap and cannot be sold, it is useless.

On the second day, several major merchants collectively felt that this situation was not good, so they came to the County Marquis Mansion again, crying in front of Gu Qing, "Master Gu, this item is not easy to sell."

"Then give it away." Gu Qing looked at the faces of several merchants.

"Give it off? Master Gu, stop making trouble." The faces of the merchants became even uglier.

"Not all of them." Gu Qing said, "When you sell other things, you can give soap along the way, but you can't give too much, and you can't give it for too long. Two to three days is enough. If you give it away for nothing, no one will want it. As if I were blind."

Chapter 266 Interest Binding

Several merchants still didn't understand, Gu Qing patiently explained, "Everyone should be right about free gifts? As long as people know its goodness, they will buy it naturally. Soap is a consumable, and as long as it is used up, it needs to be bought again. Use it next.

"I understand." A merchant cupped his hands and said, "It's a brilliant move, a clever plan for the county."

"Stop flattering, listen carefully, soap is good or bad, I will let the factory improve the way to improve the smell of soap." Gu Qing said, "Now the soap is the most common, and there will be many scented soaps in the future. Soap, the price can be slightly increased."
