Chapter 801: The Future
the root of the city wall, he saw two familiar figures, one old and one young.when he came near, the old man would no longer rise trembling to meet him, and the child named Daiwa would no longer blink...Chapter 801 foreground
the night is getting dark.
I don't know when the lights will be lit. When Li Chen finally finished his day of business, he looked up and saw that the sky was already blue and black, and it was about to go dark.
Wan Jiaojiao ordered people to light a few more candles for her Royal Highness, and personally brought a bowl of chilled sour plum soup.
A pair of white and tender vegetables were delivered to Li Chen with exquisite porcelain bowls in his hands.
"your Highness, the weather is getting hotter and hotter today. Use some chilled sour plum soup to invigorate the body and quench thirst and get angry."
took the porcelain bowl and drank it twice. The entrance was sweet and refreshing, and the whole person's fatigue disappeared a lot.
feeling more and more accustomed to Wanjiaojiao's service, Li Chen turned to Wan Jiaojiao and said, "you often go out to the palace to buy a phone book. do you know how much soap sells in the folk"
Wan Jiaojiao wanted to explain that she didn't go out very often, but she replied honestly, "well, now Ling Yuexuan, oh, the shop opened by Liu Jiakai, they have followed the instructions of your Highness and developed more ordinary soap, so that ordinary people can afford it. At present, people in the capital will buy a few pieces of soap at home if they have better conditions."
"the maidservant also heard that some families would save money to buy a good one, and usually put it in the middle of the hall with a lid, and when there were distinguished guests coming to the door, they would take it out and show off."
"it's kind of interesting."
Li Chen said with a smile: "the sales in the capital have proved that there is a market for this thing, and it can be gradually promoted to the whole country in the future."
soap is just a small thing, but its overall profit is staggering.
during this period of time alone, the financial reports sent by the Liu family have stored up 2.002 million yuan of silver, which is the net profit after deducting all the costs.
although 2.002 million is only a drop in the bucket for a country as big as Daqin, it is a very positive sign.

in addition, Li Chen is also well aware of human nature, and the production technology of soap is not that sophisticated. I'm afraid it won't be long before imitations of the same type will appear on the market.
after all, everyone sees the popularity of soap, and it can't stop the jealousy of others at all.
if you are more decent, you can buy back samples for your own research and development, and you can also find a few harsher craftsmen with a little more effort.
those with a darker heart directly bribe the Liu family's master to steal the formula, and the money is touching, and there is no one in the world who can't be bought.
Li Chen knows this, but does not intend to stop it.
on the one hand, it is unstoppable, on the other hand, it stimulates the business environment of the entire Qin Empire to let a hundred flowers blossom, which is also one of Li Chen's purposes of governing the country.
it is impossible for a country to be rich if it wants to do business on its own. With all kinds of industries and people's livelihood, it is impossible for the imperial court to monopolize all production. Only by promoting the productive power of the people, so that commerce can flourish, and the imperial court collects commercial taxes is the right way.
after all, the imperial court is still in charge of the whole country, so it can't really get involved in business.
in this regard, Li Chen's plan at the bottom of his heart is extremely clear and clear.
is not just soap, but follow-up perfumes, mirrors and other daily gadgets are sharp weapons that can stimulate the business environment of the Qin Empire and improve people's livelihood.
it's just that you have to eat one mouthful at a time.
the most important thing now is to get rid of Zhao Xuanji and Li Yinhu.
looking at the dark sky outside, Xu Weina still had no news, and Gong Huiyu didn't come back.
Li Chen knew that these things were not urgent and did not rush, so he could only wait for the news.ting brought him over this time.happens to be used to deal with Halle."I am General Liu Tongbi of Qin Xuanwei."Liu Tongbi responded in a loud voice: "with General Su Zhenting, the governor of the five...
