The next day, Zhang Fangyuan drove his carriage to Zaojiao Village to slaughter pigs before dawn. He Geer was in good health and wanted to go back to the tea shed. It was still a long way from the village to the tea shed, so he took the people along with him. past.

Then he went to the neighboring village with Chen Si again.

In fact, there is not much technical content in pig slaughtering. He learned it twice when he learned the craft from the old widower.

The two used to be together before they got married. Chen Si often saw him butchering pigs, and he knew how to use a knife.

With an extra helper today, Zhang Fangyuan can write the script quickly, and it usually takes nearly an hour to clean it up. Today, someone helped scald and shave the pig hair, and it took more than half an hour to load the pork on a cart and take it to the city.

When I went there, it was just in time for the morning market. Zhang Fangyuan hawked for a while, and then asked Chen Si to learn how to hawk. Anyway, sooner or later he has to learn. The first time I was doing business, I was a little cramped and not used to it. Everything was a word of courage. For example, if the family was under pressure and was eager to make money, it was even faster to get started, and I could do things that were usually embarrassing.

After the morning market, half of the pork was sold out.

Chen Si was pleasantly surprised: "It's so easy to sell?"

Zhang Fangyuan wiped off his sweat and took a sip of the tea he poured into the gourd: "It depends on the day. The business of the two hawkers today is better than usual. Besides, isn't it the busy season? There are more people buying meat." .”

"After the morning market, there are not many people. If someone comes to buy meat again, you choose to put it on the scale. After you feel the meat, you will not be on the scale in the future. You will probably know it if you go down the knife. How much, save trouble when you are busy."

Chen Si nodded: "OK."

Zhang Fangyuan tidied himself up briefly: "I'll leave the stall to you, I'll go out for a while."

Chen Si responded: "Don't worry, go." After saying that, he called Master with a playful smile.

Zhang Fangyuan has nothing to worry about, his wife is a little brother, and he still takes care of everything properly, and he came out to sell and do business before him, and he was only so old at that time. This Chen Siniu is tall and tall, so he might not be able to keep watch over a stall.

After leaving the meat market, he went straight to the biggest rouge shop in the city.

"What do you want, brother?"

When Zhang Fangyuan entered the door, a waiter greeted him warmly.

"Do you have "rose water" here? A kind of fragrant dew?"

The guy shook his head: "We don't have any here."

"Lang Jun, you are already the fifth person who came to ask about this fragrance today."

The boss of Fengchunlou walked down the stairs with an abacus in his arms, and happened to be listening to the conversation between the two, so he stepped forward and said something. It's strange to say that recently, everyone from high-ranking officials and dignitaries to ordinary merchants and ordinary people are asking about this fragrant dew.

"Not to mention you, even the servants of the county magistrate's mansion have come to ask if there is this fragrance in the store."

Zhang Fangyuan thought to himself that these nobles did not dislike the origin of this fragrance, and it would not be surprising that the women in Hualou used it first.

"Boss, can I take a step to speak?"

The owner of the store moved his brows slightly, glanced at Zhang Fangyuan, and handed the abacus to the waiter: "Your Majesty, please."

The two entered the elegant room, Zhang Fangyuan said bluntly: "I have a few bottles of fragrance here, I wonder if the boss wants to buy them?"

The shop owner is from the leading rouge shop in the city. There is such a popular fragrance in the city. He must have inquired about the situation early in the morning, so he knew that the goods were in Yunliang Pavilion. I have already gone to find someone to negotiate with, but it is a pity that there is no result yet.

Now someone comes to the door to say that there is a stock, and it is still a man, so it is unavoidable to be a little suspicious.

Zhang Fangyuan knew what was in people's hearts, so he didn't say much, he just took a bottle of incense and exposed it for people to check.

The boss took a slight sniff from a distance, and the person who was spinning around in the old spice was so smart, he immediately knew it wasn't a fake: "It's really that thing!"

"Thinking about going to the rouge shop in the city recently, I'm crazy about looking for goods. I just want to make a fortune. I'm short of money recently, and I won't hide it from the boss. If the price is right, I won't shop around. No one knows. Fengchun Rouge Shop is the largest Rouge Shop in the city."

The shop owner also smiled: "Lang Jun is a straightforward person. Since he can get this product, he also knows that the price from Yunliang Pavilion is twelve taels a bottle. There are many buyers and there are few goods. If Lang Jun wants to sell, I also sincerely want the goods, but I can only pay the price at Yunliang Pavilion."

Zhang Fangyuan raised the corner of his mouth: "It's easy to say."

This time, Zhang Fangyuan sent all the things in his hand to Fengchun Rouge Shop. There are still eight bottles in total. He originally wanted to save one for He Geer, but he didn't use it recently. There were so many things, the price was cheap back then, and the taste was the same, so if you like it, just buy it again.

Xianglu was exchanged for ninety-six taels again, which seemed to be more profitable than when he sold it to Yunliang Pavilion, but he made it clear early in the morning.

First sell part of it to Yin Jiuniang at a low price, and when she sells the price up, the market scrambles to buy it. When the goods are not enough, he will release some. By then, Yin Jiuniang has already made money, and he can make more money. a sum.

Furthermore, when he sold it to Yin Jiuniang at the beginning, he didn't say that she would buy it out. Together, both of them made a lot of money, and the only one who was unlucky was the kid who picked up the goods.

But when he knew that this fragrance was sold everywhere, the price was already cheap at that time, I am afraid that the bottle in the rouge shop is only more than one hundred renminbi. In today's chaotic market, a bottle of fragrance may change hands to several people, and the price is different for different people, and they make money one by one.

This batch of goods is sold in Fengchun Building, the boss probably will sell or give a few bottles to the distinguished customers, and I will save it for research and research. When the time comes, I can make a lot of money by myself, and then slowly start to go downhill. .

But this is something to talk about, Zhang Fangyuan just wants to make money from the wave in front of him.

Now that he has the money, he makes up his mind to set up a decent shop, and do business that doesn't exist in the city now.

He has been carefully looking around the city these days, looking at the new shops in the city, and recalling which profitable shops have not yet opened.

After making a tour, I found that the teeth brushing shop has not yet opened.

Thinking back to those glorious years in the city, he also lived in a big mansion, and when he got up, he also imitated the respectable people in the city who used a ponytail toothbrush dipped in herbal ointment to rinse his mouth and brush his teeth. He was very particular about living a period of time.

When people are rich, they like to tinker with these things, and they pay attention to elegance and style. Naturally, when they are down and down, they only care about life and death, and they can't care about their stink.

Nowadays, there are no teeth-brushing shops in the city, so there are not many utensils for brushing teeth. Most people use their fingers to do it for them, or chew wood to rinse their mouths after meals. Most of them love cleanliness like He Geer, but they are reluctant to use salt, so they usually rinse with water.

Zhang Fangyuan thought that if he opened a toothbrush shop by himself, the price would be higher then, and it would be aimed at wealthy families, and he would make money.

There are shops in the city that make small profits but sell quickly, and of course there are also expensive ones, and the advantage of being expensive is that some people want to imitate, but the high cost will attract a large number of people who want to imitate. Like setting up a stall, it is troublesome to meet shameless business grabbers.

Because of Xianglu's unhappiness before, he went home with the money and told Xu He about it.

"This..." Xu He was quite embarrassed: "I have never seen it before."

Zhang Fangyuan couldn't talk to him in detail, so he made an excuse and said: "I went to Suzhou in the past. It was bustling and bustling, and there was everything there. I said there is a toothbrush shop on the other side." The toothbrush shop in Siyang City is also true. It was passed from there, but it was not so early.

Xu He said: "Are you going to Suzhou to buy goods?"

He has never been to such a far place, but he heard from experienced people in the village that he went to Suzhou to find a job. The prosperity and peace at that end, even the ordinary people live like the landlords on their side, and the money is not enough. good money. For this reason, people in the village who want to go far away to make money will go to Suzhou.

Apart from the prosperity, Xu He's impression of Suzhou is silk and satin, and the silk embroidery is famous and expensive.

Siyang City is not very far away, if you have a horse, you can travel there in two days. It's not that he opposes Zhang Fangyuan's business. It's a good thing for a man to be motivated and love to make a living. Besides, it's unrealistic for a man like Zhang Fangyuan to keep a small stall for the rest of his life.

It's just that he doesn't understand these things, so he can't help much.

Zhang Fangyuan said: "It's not necessary."

These things are expensive, and if you bring them from Suzhou, the cost will be raised again and again. The best thing is to find someone to make them yourself.

Toothbrush utensils are used by people everywhere, and they are common in the market. Even a peddler in the street will tie a lot of them to the burdens for people to buy. He has been here, so he still doesn’t know.

"It doesn't matter if you just talk about it, so, if you find a time, go to the city with me and then go to the shop. I will find someone to make the finished product when I have free time, and I will show you what it looks like first."

This is the best way, but: "I think it's better to have a look at the finished product before setting up a shop. I read the market when I said I was going to open a restaurant when I was a child. I don't need to look at it too much. I probably have a good idea. "

Zhang Fangyuan laughed: "Okay, listen to you. This is more secure."

"Then I have to find someone."

Previously, Zhang Fangyuan remembered that most toothbrushes only had wooden handles, and pig hair brushes and horsetail brushes gradually appeared later. The paste for cleaning teeth was first salt, and then tooth powder appeared one after another.

This tooth powder has a lot of articles. The precious ones are ground into powders such as shellfish, meretrix meretrix, and borneol, which can clean teeth, prevent moths, and brighten the teeth; Teeth cleaning can reduce fire and heat, relieve gum swelling and pain...

Zhang Fangyuan used these things in the past, they were novel and exquisite, and the mouth was clean and comfortable after use. It is true that he has his own advantages in being able to spread from nobles and gentry to the homes of ordinary people.

However, this tooth powder is not very easy to use. After the toothbrush is coated with powder, it is easy to fall off and is not easy to scrub. For this reason, there are talented people who boil willow and mulberry branches into a paste. When brushing teeth, dip the paste on the toothbrush. , the viscous paste sticks to the teeth well, so brushing your teeth is just fine.

When the trend of brushing teeth was prevalent at the beginning, many celebrities used Chinese herbal medicine to make tooth powder on their own. The progressive brushing method in the future allowed him to take advantage of it, and he could get a new one as soon as he changed it.

Zhang Fangyuan went to the carpenter's shop first, and then went to the herbal hall.
