Chapter 231 The Unbreakable Basin and the Ice-Snow Glass Cup
Seeing that Xiao Yingchun didn't respond, Fu Chenan explained: "It's okay to replace him, but now the Tianwu Kingdom is in ruins and these eunuchs have been in the palace for many years and have long been accustomed to flattering the powerful and bullying the weak..."
Fu Chenan explained a lot, but it can be summed up in one sentence: If people's mentality does not change, replacing it with a new one may not necessarily be better.
However, Fu Chenan also has a solution: "I will ask someone to investigate this matter, and then I can kill the chicken to scare the monkey."
If the eunuch in charge is too ruthless in his behavior, he will become that chicken.
As long as the black-hearted people are dealt with, the successors will not dare to go too far.
Xiao Yingchun nodded: "I like to make money, but I don't want to make dirty money."
"Don't worry, I will make arrangements."
After getting Fu Chenan's confirmation and assurance, Xiao Yingchun finally had the mood to look out the window.
Fu Chenan looked at Xiao Yingchun's brows and eyes relaxed again, and his heart was relieved a little.
In the dynasty where Xiao Yingchun lived, men and women were equal and there were no slaves. She couldn't help feeling uncomfortable seeing this situation.
He quietly reached out and held Xiao Yingchun's white and tender little hand.
When Xiao Yingchun turned around, she saw Fu Chenan's silly smile that was a bit flattering. She was stunned for a moment: "What's wrong with you?"
Fu Chenan pursed his lips slightly: "I'm afraid you'll be angry and blame me for being too harsh on them."
Xiao Yingchun suddenly realized and couldn't help laughing. She held Fu Chenan's hand and said, "Times are different, values are different, it's not your fault."
"Besides, you just took over the world, how can you take care of everything?"
The two of them fell silent for a while, until they heard the noise outside getting louder and louder, and the guards outside reported: "Your Highness, we have arrived at the grocery store and the Glass Workshop."
Two shops were opened today.
One is Xiaoji grocery store on the left side of Taotaoji, which sells plastic basins, plastic buckets, old soaps and the like.
One is the Glass Workshop on the right side of the cloth shop.
Xiao Yingchun and Fu Chenan quietly went up to the third floor of Taotao Ji through the back door, and looked down through the window, which allowed them to see both sides.
Both shops have a lot of customers, but those who go to Liulifang are mostly wealthy people, while the customers of the grocery store are all kinds of people.
A servant demonstrated the uses and advantages of plastic basins and buckets at the door of a grocery store.
Seeing that the plastic basin split in half was so thin, the people were stunned. They stretched their necks and stood on tiptoe to see it hard.
They were even more surprised when they saw that such a thin plastic basin could actually hold a full basin of water!
There is also a plastic bucket that looks just as light and thin, but it can actually hold such a large bucket of water...
Just when everyone thought it was surprising enough, the servant turned the basin upside down on the ground and actually stood on it!
Not only that, he was also swaying on it.
Although this young man looks thin and not tall, he weighs at least over 100 pounds.
That thin and transparent plastic basin is actually not rotten! ?
"Take a look, take a look, our plastic basins are strong and beautiful, even a big person like me can't break them..."
Onlookers:! ! !
When the servant got down from the basin, the onlookers collectively breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally someone couldn't help but ask.
"How much is this good thing?"
It looks expensive at first glance, right?
The servant grinned and pointed at one of the milky white basins: "This opaque basin, this big, costs five hundred coins each!"
The servant pointed at the transparent basin he had just stepped on and said, "This transparent one costs 800 coins each."
"All pots and buckets, the bigger they are, the more expensive they are, the smaller they are, the cheaper they are."
"You can use it to wash clothes, wash your face, wash your children, store fruits and vegetables, or anything else..."
When everyone heard this, they said: It’s not expensive!
It costs two hundred coins to make a wooden basin of similar size!
As soon as the servant finished speaking, someone immediately shouted, "Give me a transparent one!"
The other one took one look and quickly shouted, "I want the opaque one!"
"I'll give you three! Three opaque ones!"
"Me! I want five of each! Five of each!"
"I want a big one, the biggest one..." The scene suddenly became noisy.
Fortunately, several servants came out immediately to maintain order, allowing everyone to line up and buy in turn.
Many families buy several at a time, and wealthy families buy a whole stack at a time!
The ladies in the house must have three people each, one to wash the face, one to wash the hands, and one to wash the buttocks...
This is just not big enough, otherwise I would have to use this to take a shower.
Besides, with such cute colors, it can also be used to hold fruits?!
The shop was filled with plastic basins, plastic buckets and plastic fruit plates, and they were sold out one by one in a short time.
The servants hurriedly carried out piles of plastic basins, plastic buckets and fruit plates from the back.
The plastic basins and plastic buckets at the grocery store were selling like hot cakes. Ten thousand basins, with a total purchase price of one hundred thousand yuan, were sold for only eight thousand taels of silver.
As for plastic basins, the main feature is small profits but quick turnover.
The glass shop on the other side is completely different.
In the glass shop, glasses are placed inside the glass counters, and the display cabinets on the wall also display many glasses of various colors and styles.
The young and beautiful skylark stands tall and has a smile on her face.
"Boss, how much is this set of glass cups?" Lady Min Guogong looked reserved, but her eyes showed love.
Yun Que confirmed with a smile: "Madam, the outer wall of this set of ice and snow glass cups is as crystal clear as ice and snow."
"There are six in a set, and the price is 100 taels of silver. Madam, do you need it wrapped?"
Lady Min Guogong was stunned: So cheap?
Yun Que confirmed again: "Madam? Do you need to wrap it up?"
"Wrap it up..." Lady Minguogong came back to her senses and quickly signaled to the nanny beside her.
The nanny quickly took out the banknotes and said, "Wrap it up for us!"
"Okay, I'll wrap it up for you right away..."
Lady Minguogong looked at the carefully wrapped ice-cold glass cup with great admiration in her heart.
Ice and Snow Glass Cup... What a nice name! The cup is just as its name suggests, and its appearance really looks like ice and snow.
This glass cup must be well kept and can only be used when a truly distinguished guest visits.
Before they had finished wrapping, Lady Minguogong's eyes turned and saw another set of similar styles on the shelf.
However, this set is slightly different from the one I just bought.
The rim of the cup has a light pink color, which becomes lighter as it goes down until it becomes colorless.
I wonder how much such an exquisite glass cup would cost!
Lady Minguogong thought about it, but still couldn't help but like this set of gradient pink glass cups, so she pointed at the set of cups.
"What about this pink one?"
Yun Que smiled as soon as she saw it: "Madam, you have good taste. This set of gradient pink ice and snow glass cups is very rare, and this is the only set in stock at the moment."
"If Madam likes it, just pay five hundred taels of silver."
Lady of Duke Minguo: ...
He looked at it, and looked at it again, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Wrap it up for me."
"Yes, ma'am. I'll wrap it up for you right away."
Yun Que's smile was like a spring breeze, making Lady Minguogong feel particularly comfortable.
She couldn't help but look at the skylark again and asked a tentative question.
"With such a good appearance and personality, the girl can be the mistress of a wealthy family."
Why do you want to be a female shopkeeper who is in the spotlight?
Yunque glanced at Lady Minguogong with a smile, her tone neither humble nor arrogant.
"I was originally a first-class maidservant beside the Imperial Concubine in the palace, and I only knew how to serve others all my life."
"To be here today is also an opportunity given by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I am very satisfied."
Lady Minguogong was shocked!
