The Journey of Two Worlds
chapter 10


Chapter 10 – New Business


The general sale of the shampoo immediately triggered a round of bidding in Chang'an City. The three merchants who took the goods from Li Yin sold all the items in their hands, and continued to urge Li Yin to deliver the items. It lasted for a while. Sales gradually ushered in a stable period. Now the nobles and women in Chang'an were basically using shampoo. A bottle of shampoo was enough for them to use for a month, but ordinary people could not afford expensive luxury items. Therefore, it was within Li Yin's expectations that such a situation would arise after the hustle and bustle of sales. Of course, he was also happy to be in his free time, going back and forth between the two worlds, which left him exhausted.


"Left! No, right! No, left..”.


Su Mo'er's small face flushed in embarrassment, and her teeth itched with hatred. The sixth prince was getting worse, always trying to make use of him. Tickling his back, while Su Moer scratched the right side, he said the left side was itching, scratching the left side, he said the right side was itching, a few minutes passed, but he could not scratch the right place.


With the money in the palace, Jin Daqian replaced three of the four previous servants in the palace. Except for fourteen-year-old Yun'er, the other three maids who were over twenty years old received severance and went home. By the way, Jin Daqian It was also for the sake of their marriage. In the Tang Dynasty, they were the remnant women who were actually older.


Su Mo'er was one of the three maids newly recruited by Jin Daqian. According to him, this girl was a woman from a noble family who was defeated in the previous dynasty. He also fell in love with her, and bought her for ten cents. Jin Daqian thought that the servants in the palace were actually some peasant children who were unable to understand poems and books, and they were completely unfit for Li Yin's status. He was handsome and could read and write, so he used the name Li Yin and brought Su Mo'er back to the palace.


The little girl looked like she was about to cry, and Li Yin felt she had gone too far. Although he understood that it was very easy for a prince to have a servant in this era, he still could not pass it psychologically. "Your Majesty, let me come!" Compared to Su Mo'er, Yun'er was much more relaxed, his fiery eyes did not shy away from Li Yin's eyes, and there was a spiritual hint that you would come if you had the guts.


“Ahem! Ben Wang suddenly felt his back not itching anymore!” Li Yin got up and left the study room, and fled.


"Sister Yun'er, thank you!" Li Yin left, and Su Morer blessed Yun'er, thanking him.


Yun'er sighed, “Your Majesty treats you differently, it's your blessing. There were many girls outside the palace complex who thought that one day they would be favored by His Majesty and enjoy the glory of a lifetime. It doesn't seem like it's enough.”


“Not Mo'er cuek, it's just that before my mother died, I swore to her that I would never hand myself over to anyone until I found my sister!” Thinking of such pitiful things, Su Mo'er cried.


Yun'er handed him the silk cloth and comforted him: “You think too much, Your Majesty is just playing you, if he wants to occupy your body, can you stop him? If he was a pervert, I would How could it still be a perfect body!


“I know Your Majesty is a good person, everyone in the palace said so, but men and women can not get along.” Su Mo'er can not continue.


Pulling her lips, Yun'er said: "You, even though you came to the palace to become a servant, you still have the temperament of that oldest woman!" After speaking, he pulled Su Mo'er out of the study.


Li Yin left the study room and went straight to the palace. Now the second half of the palace seemed to be Li Yin's factory.


The shampoo problem ended, and the palace did not relax because of it, but became increasingly busy. The newly recruited servants were arranged by Li Yin to do another new job.


After the six modern distillers bought by Li Yin arrived, Li Yin moved them to the palace. In the form of copper coins, passion instantly shone.


Before approaching the apse, the pungent aroma of wine smelled. Now the wine distilled in the palace was an ordinary rice wine bought by Jin Daqian from the market. After all, winemaking is a very time-consuming process, and it is faster and easier to buy it directly. , the price of this ordinary rice wine is very cheap, it is, You can buy a large jar for a few cents, and it costs very cheap.


In the wine steam room named Xinghuafang by Li Yin, six distilleries were running at the same time, and more than a dozen maids continued to add fire. Wine droplets continuously drip from the distiller condenser tube. Under the condenser tube was a one meter tall wine barrel. After a few days, the wine barrels had been replaced twice, and this was the third wave.


"The output is still not high!" Li Yin examined him and said in her mouth. He understood that the heating method of distillation was a factor influencing the results, but the habit of using coal had not been used in the Tang Dynasty. He wondered, Chang'an It was not used in the city, so now he could only use the original heating method.


Of course, new news about the Prince's Mansion did not escape the attention of fans. The story of Jin Daqian, the housekeeper of the Prince Liang House, buying rice wine on a large scale has spread, and there are many versions of various rumors. Everyone stared at the Prince Liang Palace. I don't know if suicide by jumping into this well didn't die. What kind of tricks can a successful little prince play.


"Your Majesty, Wang Anzhi is here!" As Li Yin scooped the baijiu and was about to taste it, Jin Daqian came to report.


This Wang Anzhi was summoned by Li Yin to Jin Daqian. Alcohol has a wide range of uses, not only for making liquor, but also for making perfume. Li Yin was most familiar with making perfumes.


The shampoo taken from Li Yin for 250 Wen sold for 300 Wen in the market. It was fortunate that Wang Anzhi was unable to sleep for several nights. Today, when Jin Daqian told him that King Liang wanted to meet him, he He rushed off even without breakfast. If he offended anyone, he could not offend the God of Wealth.


“Cao Min, Wang Anzhi greets King Liang!” Li Yin walked in, and Wang Anzhi hurriedly bowed, "I don't know why His Majesty invited the villains to come!"


"Nothing serious, just sit down!" Li Yin sat down carelessly. Now he gradually understood why the world liked to fight for power and profit. The feeling of respect is just as addictive as drugs. “How is Mr Wang's spice business now?” ?”


When King Liang suddenly mentioned the spices, Wang Anzhi could not help but be momentarily dumbfounded, but he still said truthfully, “Hei, the spice business is now becoming more and more difficult. Persian merchants flowed into Chang'an in large numbers. Spices brought from the Western Region are a nice variation.” Too many, and we, local spice traders, are almost overwhelmed.”


Li Yin knew that Persian merchants mainly exported spices, corals, gems, and other commodities to the Tang Dynasty at the time. It was normal for Wang Anzhi to deal with such a situation. Naturally, spices were needed to make perfume, and buying from Persian merchants was definitely expensive. This Wang Anzhi He had cooperated with himself, and the spice business was not well managed, which was in accordance with Li Min's mind. This way, Wang Anzhi would not raise the price when providing his own spices.


“You must have also heard about the recent purchase of rice wine at Prince Liang's House. To be honest, I am currently developing a special fragrance, which I call perfume, and the manufacture of this perfume requires a lot of seasoning. I'd like to cooperate with you, you provide fragrance, and Wangfu is responsible for configuring this perfume, and after the problem is solved, you can enjoy exclusive rights to sell it, what according to Wang Lao?


"Perfume!" It's a new term. Wang Anzhi hesitated. The price of spices is very expensive. It is very risky to give spices for free to develop new things that do not know the market prospects, and what he gets is only the exclusive right to sell. How is the fundamental profit? There was no way to obtain it, what Li Yin gave him was undoubtedly a master clause, which was tantamount to paying Liang Palace to get his own money.


"Your Majesty, Wang is a small business, this is very embarrassing for Wang ..."


Li Yin understood what he meant, and was a little disappointed, but she did not force it. After all, Wang Anzhi knew nothing about perfumes.


My calculations were in vain, and Li Yin told Wang Anzhi to leave. People in this era really have no adventurous spirit at all, Li Yin thought silently.


Leaving the palace nervously, Wang Anzhi heaved a sigh of relief, but he still felt a little strange in his heart. He always felt he had made the wrong decision. Just as he was about to leave, a fat man in a round-neck satin robe came over excitedly. With a smile on his face, “Isn't this storekeeper Wang? He came to the palace this early.”


"So Lord Tong, Your Majesty also invited you?" Wang Anzhi was a little surprised.


After coming into contact with Li Yin, Tong Nian ran to Prince Liang's house every three days. When Li Yin was there, she ran over to flatter him. When Li Yin was not there, she went to Jin Daqian and the high accountant to have tea and chat. Now everyone in the palace knows everyone. His, today he came to the palace as usual, but he did not expect to meet Wang Anzhi, he turned his eyes and thought about it, “True, Servant Jin told me last night, what did Your Majesty say to Brother Wang make Brother Wang like this?” Distracted? Can I get my brother ready. ”


Wang Anzhi did not know that Tong Nian had trapped him. He thought that Liang Wang would always talk to him about perfume, and said, "His Majesty Liang said that he has developed a new perfume and asked me to provide it ..."


After babbling for a while, Tong Nian understood cause and effect, and he was overjoyed, "Then I will enter, and I will treat Brother Wang to tea another day."


When Li Yin hesitated whether to make her own perfume, Jin Daqian came to report to Tong Nian to meet him. He was familiar with the man who had not seen him today, but Li Yin let him in.


"Your Majesty, I am willing to give Your Majesty the spices he needs for free!" Tong Nian met Li Yin and got straight to the point.


Li Yin was slightly surprised, "How do you know!"


Tong Nian then told Li Yin about his meeting with Wang Anzhi.


After hesitating for a moment, Li Yin nodded. After getting along, Li Yin felt that Tong Nian was a good person. Besides being greedy for money, Li Ke had a good eye for people to see. Otherwise, Tong Nian would not be allowed to be in Shu Palace.
