The next day, the two got up early and came to the entrance of the village to take the first bullock cart to Yulin Town. Xiong Zhuangshan planned to go, but Tang Shou decided to take the bullock cart considering his leg injury had just healed and it was not suitable for fatigue. It takes four Wen for two people to go back and forth, and two bowls of soybean oil. The family is not short of this copper coin now.

When I arrived in Yulin Town, I went to a few noble families to change a lot of ponytails, enough to make a hundred toothbrushes, and it only cost a few dozen coins.When it came time to buy spices, the price was very expensive. I only bought two liang of each, and after a dozen kinds of spices came down, if I didn't buy more, the money would be spent.

This is Xiong Zhuangshan doting on him, doing whatever he wants, he is used to lawlessness.For someone else, such a large amount of money, spent for two years, is it just to be taken out to make something unknown.

When he got home, Xiong Zhuangshan steamed and dried the ponytail he had exchanged for, and tied it on the brush head. The fine ponytail fluff is just right, and a rough man like Xiong Zhuangshan thinks it is fine. Miss Alang from a rich family was even more delighted when she saw it.

"Fu Lang, look, what are you talking about?"

What Xiong Zhuangshan is holding is the toothbrush of later generations, which has changed from plastic to wooden. Tang Shou privately thinks it looks better than plastic, and it has a heavy sense of cultural heritage.

Tang Shou gestured happily with his toothbrush, "Yes, that's it. Make a few more and sell them in the town. They will definitely fetch a good price. We still need a lot of wooden boxes. They can't be too big, at most they can be better than cows." The eyeballs are two big circles, the one with upper and lower lids, I want to use it to hold tooth incense."

"That kind of box is easy to make, but it's small, and it takes a lot of work. I'll make it now." Xiong Zhuangshan worked neatly, carving out a small round box with a stick of incense in his hand.The box cover is carefully carved with two grooves, and the box body has two protrusions, which can just be buckled together, so you don't have to worry about the cover not being tight.

After Xiong Zhuangshan finished the box, he and Tang Shou ground the spices and herbs they bought into powder to make three kinds of toothpaste.

The first is to pound agarwood, white sandalwood, styrax, carapace, dipterocarp and musk into powder, and mix it into a paste with cooked honey.Tang Shou named it "Junzi" because the taste of these spices is more suitable for men.

The second type is Huangshuxiang, 馢xiang, agarwood, sandalwood, Lingxiang, Huoxiang, Gansong, musk, carapace, clove bark and other spices, pounded into powder, and mixed with storax sesame oil and cooked honey to make a paste.This kind uses more spices, is more refined, and is also the most expensive. It is mainly suitable for men and women, and it is named Heqi Rulan.

The first two take the high-end route, and the last one takes the small-rich route, selling to those whose families have a little money, not the rich.The materials used are not so particular, only dipterocarp, frankincense, and green salt are pounded into powder, and cooked honey is blended into a paste.

"How does it feel? Does it feel like your teeth were whitewashed before?" After it was done, Tang Shou urged Xiong Zhuangshan to use it with him, and taught Xiong Zhuangshan how to use it so as not to hurt teeth and gums.

In the past, when Tang Shou brushed his teeth, he used to brush his teeth regardless of whether he was holding it horizontally or vertically. Later, when he went to see his teeth with a friend, the public movie shown in the dental clinic was just about the correct way of brushing teeth. You should draw circles, and it is best not to brush horizontally, which will seriously damage the roots and gums. .

Xiong Zhuangshan's mouth is full of fragrance, and the breath that comes out when he opens his mouth is fragrant. It feels completely different from the mouth brushed with salt. He can feel the freshness of the mouth. .

"It's so fragrant, it's refreshing and refreshing in the mouth."

"That's how it feels. I haven't prepared Yaxiang before. I didn't expect to make it once. It's so perfect." Tang Shou looked at the Yaxiang made in the bowl. There is no box at home, and it hasn't been divided yet. Cover with a cloth. "If they knew that there was such a good thing, those ladies who care about face-saving, the wealthy family, Mrs. Alang, would definitely buy it with money."

What Xiong Zhuangshan thought of was not making money, but Tang Shou.There are too many strange things about Tang Shou. He knows all the things that he has never heard of. If you take out everything, you can support a family.Yaxiang this time is even more unique. Although Xiong Zhuangshan was born in a farming family, he has been fighting in the east and west for these years, and his knowledge is not short.

At first, I didn't really take Yaxiang seriously. After listening to Tang Shou's talk, I just thought that things would not lose money.But after trying it out, Xiong Zhuangshan fully realized the value of Yaxiang.

When he fought back then, the leader of them was the younger brother of the current official family, King Zhenbei.

The king of Zhenbei ate and lived with the soldiers, and sometimes brushed his teeth in the same place. He had never seen him use a toothbrush and tooth incense, which was enough to show that these things must not be available in the entire Yu Dynasty.Otherwise, someone will definitely send it to the official family as if offering a treasure, and the official family will reward this younger brother with good things that they don't use.

Tang Shou was joyful when suddenly he was embraced by a strong force, "Fulang, no matter where you came from before, you are mine now, and I will never let you go. You can only be mine in this life, die!" It is also my ghost, my husband, never try to escape."

Xiong Zhuangshan doesn't care how much money Tang Shou can make for him, he only cares about this person in front of him.This kind of heartbeat is vigorous, just look at him, you will be very happy, full of energy, and can't help but look forward to the future.

Tang Shou lowered his eyelids, his eyes darkened, he kept patting Xiong Zhuangshan's back to comfort him, but he never said the promise.

The spices and medicinal materials used to make tooth incense are expensive, and the price of finished products is naturally not low. "He Qi Ru Lan" uses the most and the most exquisite materials. A small round box with a diameter of one and a half inches and a height of one inch costs four taels of silver. "Gentleman" uses slightly less materials. A box of the same size costs three taels of silver. The casual 'fresh' is the cheapest, [-] Wen a box.But even this price is not affordable by ordinary farmers.

For such an expensive item, even if Tang Shou had the ability to speak like a lotus flower, no one in the village would dare to buy it.But Tang Shou was also asked to give it to them for a trial sale first, and then pay back the money after selling it, but Tang Shou was also unwilling.

Tooth incense is expensive, and it is sold to the villagers for a trial, not afraid of [-] in case, if there is someone who is blind to money, sells things and does not pay back, or shows Tang Shou a pitiful show, he will tell how pitiful the family is. If you take this money, you have to die. Whether this is the case or not, although Xiong Zhuangshan is there, you must be able to get it back.But in this way, Xiong Zhuangshan's reputation will be even worse. If things go on like this, it will not be easy to restore his reputation.But if his reputation is not restored, after he leaves, Xiong Zhuangshan has such a big family business, and he is left alone. If everyone joins up to plot, it will always be difficult for them to support themselves.

Furthermore, if this hole is really opened, if there is any novelty in the future, the villagers will first think of taking it for a trial sale, and no one is willing to take the risk of spending money on it.If Tang Shou refused at that time, many people would be unhappy, thinking that it was okay before, why not now.He will never think that the more expensive things are, the cost is not low, and Tang Shou can afford any loss. Instead of dealing with endless troubles at that time, it is better to eliminate them at the root from the beginning and not set this precedent.At worst, wait a few more days, this tooth incense is a good thing, if you wait, you can always find a chance.

No one was willing to spend money to buy goods, so Tang Shou asked Xiong Zhu to try selling them first.But Xiong Zhu was born in a peasant family, so he had no contact with the young ladies of the noble family. The servants he knew did not dare to recommend such expensive things to the young ladies of the gentleman. The little girls are miserable.The noble family of the scholar family who looked down on the peasant family really didn't believe that the peasant family could make something good that they had never seen before.

"Brother, I didn't sell it." Xiong Zhu came back from a busy day with his head downcast. It had been a few days, but he didn't even sell a box of tooth incense, or even a toothbrush, feeling very guilty.

"It's okay, there is always a chance." Tang Shou comforted Xiong Zhu on the surface, but he turned his head to look at the things that came out of rush work, and he was also anxious. After all, the money was on top of it, and if he couldn't sell it for a day, the family's finances would be tense every day, so much trouble that he didn't even dare to eat meat now.

Xiong Zhuangshan comforted: "Fulang, don't worry, wait for a while, if you still can't sell it in a few days, I will think of another way."

Tang Shou said despondently, "What can we do? We don't know any of those rich ladies. As long as we know one, our stuff will be popular, and they will definitely line up to buy it."

"I believe you, don't worry, wait for a few days, if not, I have a solution"

Tang Shou's side was distressed, but the Xiong's and Sun's were extremely hot.

The villagers of Sunjia Village lined up early in the morning to buy pastries at Sun's house.

This skill was given to her by his brother-in-law who saw her suffering and felt sorry for her.She had to be worthy of him, and she must not leak it at will.Xiong Siniang, who has always been weak, showed a tough attitude this time, admitting to getting up early every day, earning less, and not letting the Sun's family help, even if it was a fire.Let Sun Erlang watch outside while doing it, and no one is allowed to peep.

At the beginning, Mrs. Sun complained a few words and beat Xiong Siniang with small words, so that she could recognize who she was and whose family she should turn her heart to.

In the past, Xiong Siniang heard more ugly words than this, and the elders of the Sun family didn't care, and pretended not to see them when they came back.This time, the two elders of the Sun family pretended not to hear them, and even had a vague intention of supporting Mrs. Sun. Seeing her mother-in-law's attitude, the third sister-in-law of the Sun family also sang along and spoke in an ugly way.

Xiong Siniang didn't give anyone face.Put down the chopsticks directly, get up and go back to the room.At first, no one in the Sun family cared about her, thinking that she had lost her temper, but after a while, Xiong Siniang came out with a small package, and the Sun family was dumbfounded.

"Siniang, what are you doing?" Sun Erlang hurriedly got up to stop Xiong Siniang, and reached out to grab the bundle on her arm.

Xiong Siniang avoided it, didn't give it to him, and said calmly, "It was agreed at the beginning that this pastry recipe is my dowry, and it's my property. You see, all the young ladies from other families have married out, so how can you return it?" Maybe I got the ancestral handicraft from my natal family. But now what does the sister-in-law and sister-in-law mean? If there is no dowry at home, they plan to steal my dowry and make their own things."

Mrs. Sun was used to bullying Xiong Siniang, so she retorted: "If you marry into the Sun family, the cake recipe in your hand will naturally belong to the Sun family. What's wrong with me, my son is also a descendant of the Sun family and deserves it."

The third sister-in-law also said: "No, second sister-in-law, don't forget whose wife you are now and whose meal you are eating."

Xiong Siniang didn't quarrel with them, she just raised her head and asked the elders of the Sun family, "Father, mother, what do you say?"

Grandfather is a man after all, and he knows how to save face, so it's not easy to force his daughter-in-law to teach him a pastry recipe.As soon as grandma was a woman, she didn't have so many worries. Even if she made a mistake, she could still explain it away with an ignorant woman.

Sun's mother said: "Si Niang, you are the second daughter-in-law of the Sun family."
