Manager Li asked with a smile: "Is there any business to change it?"

Wang Jinghui smiled and said, "Brother Zhenquan, who knows me! I have a deal. Although the profit is relatively small, the advantage lies in the large amount. If you manage it carefully, it may not be a way to make a fortune. However, in the future, the deals that can make you and my two families eat alone will be less and less. In order for Shen'er to be a stable prefect of Hangzhou, we may have to make less money!"

Manager Li smiled and said, "What's wrong?! I don't know what's going on to change it. Brother Minyuan is the boss of Hangzhou Commercial Bank and is the landlord here. It's very convenient to do anything!"

Wang Jinghui said: "No hurry. I have to think about this thing carefully. It is just for bathing and washing clothes. Of course, it is a little tricky and it will be no problem to sell it to a powerful family at a high price!"

The business that Wang Jinghui thought about was soap, but he only knew the basic method of soap and had never tried it. This was something he learned in junior high school chemistry class. A few years ago, when he opened a civilian clinic and Biandu epidemic prevention, he wanted to make soap, but he didn't have much time to try it out after a few years. He even used to using soap to bathe. Now he has to pay favors and promote the business development of Hangzhou. He has to use soap to recharge. Although soap is probably a mid-to-low-end product, he doesn't know how to make soap in later generations, but he continues to add some flavors and other things to it on the basis of soap. If he really can't, he adds perfume to it himself, and the things he makes can also fool those rich people. There are many profits.

With soap, it will have a very significant effect on improving the quality of life, especially in ancient times when there were no special medicines for epidemics and plagues. It is particularly important to grasp personal hygiene and can also curb the spread of diseases to a certain extent. Wang Jinghui thought about it and felt that soap should have no technical problems at present, and the animal oil needed is nothing. It is all the goods of scraps, and the overall cost is easy to control.

Wang Jinghui said to Xu Jin: "Brother Minyuan, you still need to do this time, so I will tell you to those who sell real estate to me at a low price. I have a deal to produce soap. Although the profit is small, the quantity is large. As long as they are willing to work, give them 60% of their shares to distribute them themselves, and they will purchase the land!" After that, he continued to say to Manager Li: "Brother Zhenquan, you Xu's family account for 20% of these 20% of the shares. The remaining 20% ​​of the shares will be left to you to manage, specifically for the daily operation of the academy!"

Manager Li smiled and said, "Didn't you underestimate our Xu family?! But I can't see what benefits this will be for Shen'er's future."

Wang Jinghui smiled and said, "It is understandable that Brother Zhenquan has a deep relationship with his father and son, but you have to listen to me and finish it! This matter seems to be of no benefit to Shen'er. But this production of soap requires a lot of people. No matter how prosperous Hangzhou is, there are still people who are wandering and begging here. There are also some disabled people. The method of making soap does not require any strong labor. Let Li Shen gather people in the name of the prefect of Hangzhou. This can be regarded as a merit!"

Manager Li smiled and said, "It's a wonderful plan to change it. Shen'er is really a blessing to be a teacher. Xu's family is not short of this income now. Let's make these 20% of the shares change!"

Wang Jinghui said: "Does Brother Zhenquan know that it is a fur? Don't underestimate these 20% of the shares. If you really make the soap deal bigger, it will be a fortune!"

Manager Li smiled and said, "You, Wang Gaizhi, don't want this kind of fortune. I, Xu, is a slave to the wealth?! You don't have to think too much about this business, you don't have to pay for it. I, Xu, will give you 40% of the members, and you can just arrange the dividends from these 20% of the shares of Xu!"

Wang Jinghui smiled and said, "Then I'm disrespectful. If this academy wants to become larger and more famous in the future, there may be many places that need money in the future. Let's leave the dividends of these 40% of the shares to you to manage the school production of the academy!"

"Just according to the wishes of change, the Xu family will send someone to take care of them. If you change these things, you will feel at ease!" Manager Li said very simply. Compared with his son's future, not to mention 20% of the shares in this business, even if half of the property is offered, the Xu family will be willing. When a family develops to this point, they are not lacking in yellow and white things, but also need future generations to show their reputation and achieve greater achievements in their careers.

The soap manufacturing matter was decided, but for Wang Jinghui, he had to take out the soap samples as soon as possible in the past few days to give confidence to those merchants who wanted to take his fast-growing train. At the same time, considering that the soap is made simple and he did not intend to completely monopolize the soap production process - in fact, he could not keep the manufacturing process in it, so he could only win by grabbing time and scale. Therefore, Wang Jinghui and Manager Li agreed to set up soap production workshops in Kaifeng, Biandu, Yan'an Prefecture, and Daming Prefecture in Hebei, and other densely populated or administrative centers to rush to make his cake bigger before others launch soap, while ensuring a reasonable profit margin.

The raw materials for making soap are animal fat and caustic soda. Anyway, it is not the various products used after manufacturing. Soap, laundry soap and other products. Wang Jinghui only needs to provide a practical production process, and the rest will be left to the shop assistant to improve.

However, this small soap is not so easy to make in this era. It is easy to say that animal fats are good. Hundreds of cattle and sheep are slaughtered every day in a larger provincial center like Hangzhou. There is a record of slaughtering tens of thousands of cattle and sheep in Kaifeng, Biandu ("Song Huiyao~Fishing and Meal Records"). The source of animal fats can be completely solved by local acquisition methods, but this caustic soda is very troublesome. Fortunately, there are already baking soda in this era and there are rock and salt mines of natural alkali. Caustic soda solution can be obtained through simple chemical reactions of lime.

Wang Jinghui hasn't personally worked on a project for a long time. What excites him the most is the "invention" of glass and lead type printing. These two projects laid the foundation for the financial resources of other people in one fell swoop.

Now he doesn't need to consider money, but being able to reproduce the inventions of later generations in his hands as much as possible is still a very urgent matter for him.

Manager Li is most enthusiastic about Wang Jinghui's new items. Although he doesn't care about money, it has something to do with his son's future, so he is particularly concerned. As soon as Wang Jinghui opened the list of the required orders, he personally sent someone to the Hangzhou market to buy them. The quality of these raw materials is even stricter than Wang Jinghui's, and everything is best, which makes Wang Jinghui a little amused.

In the backyard, someone sent a pot to prepare peat next to it. Three or four large water tanks used to make caustic soda through chemical reactions were prepared. After buying the materials, the servants in the mansion operated under the command of Wang Jinghui. The clarified lime water was poured into the water tank, and the natural alkali bought was also poured into it and stirred. After an hour, Wang Jinghui ordered people to scoop out the water in the water tank and pour it into the pot to boil it. After a while, the water evaporated, white particles were obtained. He knew that this was caustic soda. Although the impurities in it were unknown, its purity was more than 60% to 70%, and it should be used to make soap.

With caustic soda, the rest is much easier. Add the collected oil and water to mix caustic soda and boil it in the pot. After half an hour, Wang Jinghui asked someone to scoop out a little from the pot and put it in a small porcelain bottle. When he added water, he saw that there were oil flowers floating on it. He knew that this was because the saponification reaction was incomplete. In addition to continuing to ask people to add caustic soda to the pot, he also ordered people to take a jar of wine and pour it into it - "Hehe, alcohol can improve the solubility of oil and accelerate the saponification reaction." Wang Jinghui smiled and thought, it seemed that his chemistry knowledge had not been returned to the teacher.

After a while, Wang Jinghui took a handful of iron squid from a servant and inserted it into the pot. After asking, there was not much grease on the iron squid attached to it. He knew that this was already layered, the soap base above floated on the water surface, and the water was under the glycerin.

As a doctor, it is obvious that the soap base is more valuable than glycerol. But now Wang Jinghui is no longer a simple doctor. He carries more things, so the glycerol in the pot is more valuable in his eyes - as long as this thing reacts with nitric acid, you can get glycerol trinitrate - this is the famous nitroglycerin!

Originally, Wang Jinghui didn't think about making nitroglycerin, but when he recalled how to make soap, he suddenly thought that glycerin was a by-product of making soap. Unfortunately, in this era, there was no developed chemical industry, and sulfuric acid may only be found in the hands of Taoist priests, and nitric acid was even more invisible.

Seeing Wang Jinghui holding the iron shovel there, Manager Li next to him was more worried than him, and quickly asked in a low voice: "Change it, is there any mistake in the middle? It doesn't matter, at worst we won't do it!"

Wang Jinghui woke up after hearing what Manager Li said and said with a smile: "Brother Zhenquan, have you ever seen me give up halfway?! It's very smooth now, but I was a little distracted just now!"

After Wang Jinghui said that, he asked someone to turn off the fire, cover it with a pot cover that had been prepared, and then asked the servants to take care of it and not let someone move at will, so he went back to the flower hall not far away to talk to Manager Li.

Xu Jin knew that Wang Jinghui was delicious and that his mouth was not something that ordinary dishes could satisfy, so he tried his best to prepare a table of lunch. Wang Jinghui was very happy and did not have the elegant manners of the Song Dynasty prince consort, which almost dropped his chin.

After the meal, Wang Jinghui thought that the time was almost over, so he ordered the servant to take out the solidified soap base in the pot, cut it into small pieces, and then ask someone to bring a few dirty clothes worn by the chef from the kitchen, and let the servant clean it with soap.

The soap made by trial was dark yellow. Wang Jinghui probably was caused by the impurities in the middle. However, the effect seemed pretty good, so he proudly said to Manager Li and Xu Jin: "Two, please give this soap a price!"

Manager Li and Wang Jinghui have lived together for many years. They know that Wang Jinghui has special "plots" about institutions or other novel objects. In the early days, they often invented something. It is precisely because of this that the wealth of the two families can quickly rise and become one of the most wealthy people in the Song Dynasty, which is known for its wealth in just a few years. However, Xu Jin does not know much about this, and he is simply a little inclined to make a turn for the function of this soap.

Manager Li smiled and said, "This soap is much more convenient than the soap beans you use in daily life. Moreover, the soap beans are expensive and not all people can afford it. The cost of this soap is only a few cents per dollar. If you sell it for 20 cents a dollar, it will be halfway through the price. I believe many people will buy it!"

Wang Jinghui made a little calculation and said to Manager Li: "Although this soap is not as easy to make money as glass, it is the most appropriate to use it to pave the way for Shen'er's future!"

Manager Li smiled and said, "It's really a painstaking effort to reform!"

Wang Jinghui knew that Manager Li had high money and had a high eye for the soap. He waved his hand and said, "Brother Zhenquan, don't underestimate the soap profit. Have you ever thought that we took out the soap just to allow Shen'er to use it for refugees in the city. Although this soap profit is small, the manpower required for large-scale production is much larger than the business we have done before. If we are optimistic, this soap workshop with a hundred people can supply a place in Hangzhou, but have you ever thought that the two companies of you and me have distributed even in Liao and Xixia, and such a vast sales volume. Can you find a second one in the Internet world? A hundred-person workshop is built in one place, which is much larger than Hangzhou. There are more cities in the world. In total, there are probably no less than ten thousand people who rely on soap to make a living! I think I did not suppress land annexation in the Song Dynasty. The wealthy families in various places are not trying hard to accumulate real estate, and even me is no exception. Many people will lose their jobs because of this. If they do not provide guidance, they will probably change over time. If Shen'er can really find jobs for these tens of thousands of people through soap, who will Brother Zhenquan think this is a great contribution?!"

Manager Li is very familiar with Wang Jinghui's things. Although he is a businessman, it does not mean that he has not thought about these things. In connection with his son's future, he quickly concluded that this is not just a merit. It also implies that when he is in peace today!

When Wang Jinghui saw the change in the expression on Manager Li's face, he knew that he had figured out the joints and stopped him from speaking with his hands. He continued: "Brother Zhenquan, I'm afraid this deal will be made bigger by us again! The soap production process is not complicated. Once the business becomes popular, there will inevitably be someone to steal the stolen masters. No matter how you want to prevent it, we cannot prevent it. If we want to achieve our ideal goal, we may have to take the initiative and set up a workshop for making soap in a large town with a large population! Brother Minyuan, all the merchants I owe to the mansion at night. If this business grows bigger, the profit will be amazing. This time it is a bargain for them!"

Manager Li smiled and said, "Everyone knows that doing business with Bingzhi will definitely make a fortune. If they can't get a bargain this time, wouldn't they be called Bingzhi's God of Wealth?!"

After hearing this, Wang Jinghui couldn't help but smile - in the eyes of others, he might be more of a role as a money printing machine, as in the court and among the people. It seems that his nickname "God of Wealth" cannot be escaped!

At night, at Wang Jinghui's new home, some local merchants in Hangzhou who once sold land and land to Wang Jinghui at a low price were invited here. These merchants did not expect to be summoned by the prince-consort so soon, and were also surprised in their hearts, but they were even more looking forward to the upcoming wealth - the shopkeeper of the Xu family Hangzhou Trading Company who came to serve their husband and wife for the banquet, and they said that the prince-consort had just made something recently. After learning that they were willing to sell the prince-consort at a low price, they decided to take out the thing and let everyone make a fortune together!

This news made these merchants very happy - everyone knows that doing business with the prince consort, then wealth will not be in the future! In their eyes, the Xu family was just a last-rate businessman. In just four or five years, they reached a height that a family could not reach for decades or even hundreds of years. This was not just about money. The new top scholar was Li Shen, the son of the Xu family's shopkeeper, and he was also a disciple of the prince consort! They did not dare to expect that they could have the idea of ​​Li Shen. However, when the prince consort was in charge of the military affairs of Chuzhou, the merchants in Chuzhou became rich, and even their descendants could also take the imperial examinations in the Song Dynasty. They were content with the luck of the merchants in Chuzhou.

These merchants in Hangzhou have long understood the details of the number one God of Wealth in the Song Dynasty. They didn't mind why Wang Jinghui came to Hangzhou. Whether he lost the emperor's favor or stayed temporarily on a trip, it was not important. What was important was to take the opportunity to get on the prince consort, the fast ship to get rich. Everyone in the world knows the relationship between the prince consort and the Xu family. When Xu Jin, the manager of the Xu family's storehouse in Hangzhou, they knew that this was the place where Wang Jinghui came to Hangzhou to live.
