    The business world is a place for self-glorification, and just asking for a quote seems too utilitarian. Chen Wanrong would not be so stupid. He picked up an unopened soap and put it in front of Li Qingquan, and said with a smile: "If  The old man doesn¡¯t mind it, so please accept this piece.¡±

    Li Qingquan has personally tested the magic of soap, and he likes it from the bottom of his heart. When he heard this, he couldn't close his mouth with laughter. He took the soap in his hand, put it to his nose and kept smelling it. He looked intoxicated and enjoyed it.  Jin said: "It smells so good. Wan Rong, then I will shamelessly accept it." I was so happy that I even forgot to say thank you.

    Chen Wanrong's eyes were glancing at the used soap with a hint of love. Chen Wanrong knew that he wanted to even have this piece.  It's nothing to give to him, but this piece has been used and is not complete enough. It would be too inappropriate to give it as a gift. Only Meng Lang would do such a thing. He smiled and said: "Old man, this piece has already been used"

    Li Qingquan said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, isn't it all for me? Wanrong, thank you." Regardless of whether Chen Wanrong agreed or not, he wrapped the soap and put it together with the other piece.  , looked at it happily, this piece is mine too, and smiled until there was only a small slit left in his eyes.

    Now you have to give it away or give it away. Chen Wanrong had no choice but to follow the trend: "If the old man doesn't mind, it's yours. Old man, you have tried the soap. I wonder if it can be used as a green leaf to accompany the fire fox skin?"

    "Enough, absolutely enough! I have never used such a good thing in my life. I heard that there is a similar thing called soap, which is twice as effective at washing clothes. But this thing is so rare, I have been  I didn't buy it." Li Qingquan asked directly: "Wanrong, how much do you get for this? How about five guans and one piece?"

    Chen Wanrong heard for the first time that there was a decontamination product similar to soap in the Tang Dynasty. He couldn't help but be surprised. Instead of answering the question, he asked: "Old man, what is pancreas?"

    "Wanrong, I have only heard of it, but I have never seen it. It seems to be something made from processed pig pancreas. I heard it smells like roses, osmanthus, and pine. The palace monk Shu Prime Minister Jing  For personal use, it has never appeared among the people. Otherwise, Mr. Zheng¡¯s methods can¡¯t get it? I don¡¯t know whether there is any soap that is easy to use.¡± Li Qingquan explained briefly and said impatiently: ¡°Wanrong  , how much does this cost?¡±

    Chen Wanrong has a special interest in technology. He wanted to inquire about Yizi, but Li Qingquan didn't know much about it, so he had to give up the idea and return to selling: "Old man, if you give Wu Guan this thing, it is  Isn¡¯t it too much of a loss for me? Old man, I have never seen soap, but I can guarantee that soap is better than soap, and if you need it in the future, you can ask me to get it. I guarantee that you will get as much as you want, unlike  You can¡¯t buy pancreatic juice even if you have money.¡±

    The earliest soap workshop discovered by modern archaeology was the Phoenician soap workshop, which later became popular in France and was widely spread.  In the Middle Ages, the King of France ordered Marseille to specialize in the production of soap, and "Marseille soap" was the most famous. Marseille soaps on the market today are often fake and shoddy.

    The soda ash used in the Middle Ages was a naturally formed salt lake product and was in small quantities, which seriously restricted the development of soap.  Therefore, soap has been a luxury product for a long time and has been supplied to the royal family.  It was not until the advent of "artificial soda" that this bottleneck was broken through, and soap entered the homes of ordinary people.

    Chen Wanrong heard of Yizi for the first time and didn¡¯t know how effective it was.  This does not prevent Chen Wanrong from inferring from a technical point of view that it is made with pig pancreas, which itself makes it extremely precious and impossible to market in large quantities.  But soap is different. It can be made not only with animal fat, but also with vegetable oil. Vegetable oil was available in the Tang Dynasty.  Even if the alkali is not enough, at least the output is much greater than that of pancreatic juice.

    Pig pancreas belongs to animal fat. When it encounters alkali, it will undergo a saponification reaction. Even if it is made with soda ash, the saponification reaction is limited. It will not have such a high reaction ratio as Chen Wanrong's soap.  The reason is very simple. If the saponification reaction of soap has a very high proportion, then the soap will not be a foreign product introduced to China from the West, but produced locally in China.

    Soap was introduced to China from the West, which shows that there are serious technical flaws in the production of soap.

    Chen Wanrong's technical mind is very good, and he can deduce so many truths in just a short time.  Chen Wanrong had no doubt that soap was better than soap. However, he was still very interested in soap. He wanted to see how advanced our ancestors' skills were in this area, so he secretly wrote down the name of soap.

    Before hearing about Li Qingquan¡¯s good deeds, Chen Wanrong¡¯s psychological selling price was three dollars.  This thing is extracted from waste water, it only takes a little effort and a small amount of lime soda ash money, and is sold for three pieces per piece.In other words, a total of sixteen yuan can be sold for forty-eight yuan. This is a huge profit. Chen Wanrong is very satisfied.

    Although the fur-making business was not completed, it was a good start. Li Qingquan was extremely happy and exposed the trap. Chen Wanrong decided to raise the price. He originally wanted to mention five guans, but he did not expect that Li Qingquan's quotation was five guans.  Through.  In this case, only a fool would agree to sell it for five dollars, so Chen Wanrong decided to discuss the price again.

    Li Qingquan pondered for a while and said: "Wan Rong, otherwise, the six pieces will be in one piece. I am making fur now, for the sake of good luck, it will go well."

    "Old man, I have a little opinion, I don't know if I can tell it." Chen Wanrong suddenly had an idea.

    What Li Qingquan wants to hear most now is Chen Wanrong's opinion. Hearing this, he could not hold back and said hurriedly: "Wanrong, please speak."

    Chen Wanrong confessed his crime, and then said: "Master, please think about it, your fur-making now is not only smooth, but you are going to make a big fortune. You will make hundreds of dollars for one fire fox skin, and you will make thousands for five.  An extra two thousand guan, what is this if not Dafa? So, this soap will be sold to you for 8 guan, 8 guan, if it¡¯s a big hair, I won¡¯t say 10 guan.¡± If you want to use Ji Yong to speak, I also have words to say.  , I¡¯m not afraid that you won¡¯t agree.

    After thinking for a while, Li Qingquan nodded and said, "Okay, I want two yuan."

    Two yuan is only sixteen yuan. Although it is a lot, it is far from what Chen Wanrong expected. How could he give up? He smiled and said: "Old man, you see, I took a total of ten yuan and gave you two. Now.  There are eight pieces. If you take them all, it will be eighty-eight. Dafa, how lucky it is. If the old man pays two more, it will be sixty-six, and Dashun. Eighty-eight, sixty-six, how lucky it is, I don¡¯t know.  The old man is very lucky today, it is because the old man¡¯s auspicious stars are shining brightly that it is such an auspicious thing.¡±

    Chen Wanrong initially wanted to give at most one piece to Li Qingquan, but he didn¡¯t expect that he would have to take the used piece himself, and only eight pieces were left. This number was really a coincidence.

    Each piece has eight guan, so eight pieces is sixty-four guan, plus two guan is sixty-six guan, double eight and double six, a number of good fortune.  Li Qingquan is now making fur, which is equivalent to changing his career. He has just started making fur and encountered such an auspicious number. Although he felt a little distressed about the money, he gritted his teeth and agreed: "Okay, then double six numbers, I want them all."  "

    People who do business like to ask for good luck, which may not necessarily be superstitious. The sound of auspicious words makes people feel happy. This is true in ancient and modern times.  In modern society, the rich are always burning incense and worshiping Buddha, and asking a Feng Shui master to read their faces, tell fortunes, and so on.  People in the Tang Dynasty were a step further than our modern people in this regard. Chen Wanrong's words made Li Qingquan very happy. The wrinkles on his face suddenly disappeared and he suddenly looked twenty years younger.

    Li Qingquan opened the wooden box, took out a fifty-tael silver ingot, and gave him three fifty-tael silver ingots, plus a tael of copper coins, and the sixty-six taels were paid in full.

    With so much money in his arms, it was heavy and felt extremely comfortable against Chen Wanrong's chest.  Chen Wanrong originally thought that it would be good if he could sell thirty guan, but he didn't expect to sell so many. It was really unbelievable.

    Li Qingquan carefully put the soap into the wooden box and locked it. He looked back and smiled before saying anything. The smile on his face was different from before. In the past, the smile was mostly for show, but now the smile is out of sincerity and invitation.  Chen Wanrong said: "Wanrong, I'm very happy today. You have to have a few drinks with me. Wanrong, I sent someone to buy some delicious food from Ning County for you to try."

    Luojiadian is more than ten miles away from Ningli. What kind of food is there?  Chen Wanrong's curiosity was aroused, and he must see clearly.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
