He saved money in ancient times to marry

Bai Li was dumbfounded, but the man just laughed.

At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps, and then someone opened the door of the flower hall and walked quickly. When Bai Li saw it, he couldn't help calling: "Mr."

The man paused and turned his head. It was the old man who had had tea with Bai Li when he was reading.

Bai Li looked at the immortal, then at the old man, and suddenly realized: "Are you the magistrate?"

Zhu Bi nodded to him, then turned to the fairy, respectfully said: "Lord Ye, what is this?"

"I came to look for the adults to say goodbye, and happened to bump into this young man, so I asked a few words." The man surnamed Ye smiled and said: "This young man wants to plead for his friend, what should Master Zhu do?" ?”

Just as Zhu Bi was about to speak, that Master Ye smiled and said, "I think what he said is quite interesting, Master Zhu might as well listen to it."

Zhu Bi bowed slightly: "Yes."

Ye Shenxian walked away, bringing a gust of warm wind, which once again dyed Bai Li's little face red.

Bai Li understood that this man's last words gave him a chance, judging from Zhu Zhifu's respectful appearance, no matter whether he liked his soap or not, Cheng Jiu would definitely be able to release it.

It's just that what kind of identity should a person who is respected by a fourth-rank magistrate be? Bai Li lowered his eyes. The gap between himself and the gods is bigger than he imagined, and it's probably not a gap that money can fill.

Just as he was thinking about it, Zhu Bi coughed next to him, and Bai Li came back to his senses, looking at Zhu Bi with a smile in embarrassment.

Zhu Bi snorted and said, "Your boy is capable. First, he sold some weird foods in the market, and then he went to do business in front of the entrance of the examination institute. What's your idea now?"

Bai Li was shocked: "How do you know?"

Zhu Bi: "I am a parent officer, so naturally I need to know everything."

Bai Li smiled and said, "Then you must be interested in my things."

Zhu Bi: "?"

Bai Li took out the soap and explained his thoughts, Zhu Bi listened carefully, and asked a few more questions, the two chatted for more than two hours, Zhu Bi thought more than Bai Li.

Bai Li is right, Chengzhou Prefecture does not have its own signature industry, and Zhu Bi has thought about doing something for Chengzhou, but he has no good ideas. The fragrant soap that Bai Li brought out is currently from I have never heard of it. The cost is not high, and it is very practical. The market is extremely broad, so it is a good idea.

The problem is how to operate, who will produce, how to sell, and how to supervise.

Zhu Bi asked someone to go to Bai Li's house to pass a message, and then he kept Bai Li and asked him to make soap. He had to study this technology thoroughly before deciding whether to carry out the next plan.

Bai Li grinned: "Can I ask my friend to help me?"

Zhu Bi smiled slyly: "You have to make sure that your idea is effective before you let him out. You guys are in business, you should understand that you pay the money and deliver the goods, right?"

Bai Li smiled wryly: "There are also those who pay the deposit first."

"Not here."

"..."

Bai Li had no choice but to stay here first, and Zhu Bi hired two servants to help him, while he concentrated on observing and asked some questions from time to time.

In the evening, an official sent a message that Mr. Ye was busy, so Zhu Bi hurried away. Bai Li asked the servant who was helping: "Who is this Mr. Ye?"

The servant trembled twice, and whispered, "Don't ask, if you're curious, just ask our lord."

Bai Li asked strangely, "Why are you shaking?"

The servant trembled again, and stopped talking.

Bai Li held back his curiosity, and when Zhu Bi came back, he asked, "Master Zhu, who is this Lord Ye?"

Zhu Bi was stunned for a moment, and said, "Why do you ask this, little boy?"

Zhu Bi was kind and friendly, and Bai Li spoke with him very easily, and said with a light smile, "I just wonder what kind of person can be so graceful and graceful like a fairy."

Zhu Bi looked at him as if he had seen a ghost: "What did you say about him?"

Bai Li: "I said he is like a fairy, what's the matter?"

Zhu Bi looked strange, and he said after a long while: "That's Dali Temple Shaoqing Ye Qi'an, Master Ye, disciple of the Son of Heaven, you ignorant child, don't make unreasonable remarks."

Bai Li: "Qian, what a name."

Zhu Bi: "Prayer is his word, his name is Ye Tinglan, look at your ignorance."

Bai Li snorted, remembered the name silently, and asked again: "Isn't Dali Temple in the capital? Why is he in Chengzhou?"

Zhu Bi glared at him: "Didn't I tell you not to ask, work!" Bai Li had no choice but to work silently.

But I didn't know that Ye Tinglan was looking for Zhu Bi to say goodbye, and left Chengzhou Mansion by car the next day. When seeing him off, Bai Li glanced at him from a distance, Ye Tinglan got into the car behind the blue-clothed youth, and Zhu Bi brought a group of officials Respectfully send you off.

Two days later, Bai Li made six kinds of soap, including laundry soap and hand soap, each with different recipes and slightly different appearances, which can meet the needs of people from high, middle and low levels.

After careful study, Zhu Bi divided the soaps into two categories and three grades. They were no longer called Xiangpanzi, but instead called laundry soaps and cleansing soaps.

Zhu Bi believes that the promotion of this soap should not be rushed for a while, and it will be manufactured by government-run workshops for the time being. When the profits are seen, merchants will naturally come to the door, and then it will be slowly promoted.

In the Western Qin Dynasty, there was a workshop directly under the government, called Guanzaofang. At present, cloth, flour, furniture and other things were also made. Zhu Bi set up a separate yard in the Guanzaofang, and assigned four workers to help Bai Li To make soap, it is required to make a large amount of soap one year ago and ship it to nearby state capitals by official merchant ships after the next year.

That evening, Bai Li met Cheng Jiu.

Cheng Jiu suffered a lot in the prison, but he has a good foundation and a strong body. Apart from looking a little more embarrassed and thinner, there is nothing wrong with him.

Cheng Jiu knew that Bai Li saved him and gave him an extremely precious prescription. She was so grateful and didn't know what to say. She just wanted to hold Bai Li and cry. Bai Li thought he was dirty and smelly and threw him into the After washing in the bathtub, I gave him a piece of cleansing soap by the way, so that he could feel what magical object he had sacrificed.

Cheng Jiu, who came out deliciously after washing, wanted to cry even more. He wanted to go home and say he was safe, but Bai Li grabbed him to work as a coolie, and said, "I paid so much money to get you out, and you still want to go away!" ? Hurry up and work for me, work overtime!"

Cheng Jiu smiled foolishly, and started to work without saying a word. Bai Li was both disgusted and happy, so he asked someone to go home and report to both families that they were safe.

Just nothing was said about the soap thing.

On the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, the government set up stalls in various commercial streets with great fanfare, and the directly affiliated shops everywhere also set up special stalls to sell two kinds of soap.

It was looted on the first day, sold for three days, and looted for three days. Some sensitive businessmen have already sensed business opportunities, and there is an endless stream of people visiting the magistrate at the end of the year.

Bai Li found time to go back home, Bai Qing and Xiao Liu'er were overjoyed, Bai Li talked to them for a while, and then asked him to take out his alpine rhododendron.

Cheng Jiu's family was even more joyful, wishing to kowtow to Bai Li, but Bai Li had more important things to do, so he and Cheng Jiu drove back to Fucheng in a carriage after not staying for long.

Bai Li went to see Zhu Bi, and presented the pot of Alpine Rhododendron, which was in full bloom with anger, and turned into a warm crimson, extremely festive.

Zhu Bi couldn't put it down, and walked around the flowerpot several times, admiring again and again: "How can it bloom like this?"

Bai Li smiled and said, "Your Excellency is kind to us. This pot of Alpine Rhododendron is our New Year's gift to you. May your Excellency have a prosperous new year and a bright future."

Zhu Bi laughed and said, "I'm so old and I still have a bright future. You are really good at raising flowers. How did you do it?"

Bai Li: "Unique skill, never spread it to the outside world, it doesn't exist in our business."

Zhu Bi laughed and scolded: "Stinky boy, forget about killing yourself."

Bai Li chuckled, suddenly remembered something, and asked: "You said that day that you were waiting for the young master's exam, but how did the young master do?"

Zhu Bi waved his hand casually: "The head of the case, it's nothing."

Bai Li was dumbfounded, and stretched out his thumb: "Old Versailles!"

Zhu Bi: "?"

Zhu Bi did not talk to this kid, saying: "Many people have come to ask me about the business of these two kinds of soaps. I promised them to pass on the craftsmanship to them after spring, but the recipes are kept secret and can only be learned from you. They Do not teach in private."

Bai Li thought for a while and said, "I can understand keeping it secret, why can't I teach it in private?"

Zhu Bi glared at him: "What do you think?"

Bai Li smiled: "To protect me."

"Just know."

"Thank you sir."

"Okay, you are busy enough these days, go home early to celebrate the New Year, just wait until the sixteenth day of the first lunar month." Zhu Bi said.

Bai Li and Cheng Jiu hurriedly saluted: "Yes."

Just as he was about to leave, Zhu Bi called to him again, stuffed a small red bag into his hand, and said, "This is the proceeds from buying soap in the past three days, after deducting the cost of labor and miscellaneous expenses, this is your commission, go home Have a great year."

Bai Li weighed it, and said in astonishment: "This... my lord, our deal is my Fangzi in exchange for Cheng Jiu's freedom, what are you doing like this..."

Zhu Bi shook his head: "I accepted your prescription, but we didn't say that you would work for me for free, nor did we say that you would not be able to use this prescription in the future, so take it."

Bai Li couldn't help but feel a sore nose. How can there be such a business? Generally speaking, Fang Zi's business is to completely hand over the business to the other party. Zhu Bi did this out of consideration for his difficult life at a young age. The love of the people is the tolerance of the elders to the younger generation.

He gave Zhu Bixing a big gift: "Thank you, my lord, I appreciate it."

Zhu Bi smiled and waved his hands, and Bai Li and Cheng Jiu withdrew.

As soon as he got into the carriage, Bai Li opened the little red envelope, and he was dumbfounded when he saw it. There was a bag of broken silver in it, which blinded people's eyes with white flowers.

Cheng Jiu was speechless: "Damn it, you got rich!"

Bai Li picked up a piece of silver, waved it in front of his eyes, then cheered, and put his arms around Cheng Jiu's neck: "Go, go buy delicious food!"

"it is good!"

The two bought a large piece of fresh meat, sweets and snacks, and a small jar of wine, and went home happily.

When they got home, Bai Qing and Xiao Liu'er saw that the money had been blown up, and only then did they realize what the huge benefits Bai Li was talking about!

They hurriedly put away the silver and opened the clay pot. Bai Li saw at a glance a small piece of broken silver lying in the pile of copper coins, which was exactly the one that Ye Tinglan paid for when he bought his milk dates.

Bai Li took out the small piece of silver, and suddenly remembered what Ye Tinglan said to Zhu Bi that day, a single sentence made the deal easy, and solved Bai Li's two major problems at the same time. Good people.

He put away the little silver, and planned to find someone to tie it into a pendant and carry it with him after the Chinese New Year.

He didn't know why he did this, he just felt that when he saw this little silver coin, he would think of that person, and when he thought of that person who was smiling and dressed like snow, he was... very happy.
