Lord of Rot

Chapter 179 Weighing and Caravan (page 12)

The soap business in Donggang City once again refreshed Li Qi's knowledge.

Often a raven would fly in the morning to deliver a message, and another in the afternoon.

Buy extra soap.

"Nobles are really rich"

Reaffirming Li Qi’s previous thoughts, do poor people have money? Earning money from the poor is troublesome and hard work. Whoever has more money will earn it. If the nobles have money, they should earn the money from the nobles.

"Go to Donggang City to buy a shop and open a shop?"

Li Qi looked at the latest letter and shook his head slightly.

impossible!

Rent, security, etc. are trivial matters. Going to Donggang City to do business by yourself is a waste of manpower and material resources, and will eventually generate income for Donggang City.

Definitely not going.

The soap is just an introduction. What he needs is for other people to know about Porcupine Collar and come to Porcupine Collar.

The arrival of the caravan can drive the economic cycle.

"It is estimated that these nobles will not be short of soap in a short time."

Even if you wash the soap once a day, the small soap will last for a month or two.

This time, more than 5000 copies of the Donggang City order were sold, bringing Li Qi nearly silver monthly income.

However, this little money can't support the fact that Porcupine Ling spends a lot of money every day. For infrastructure, open work, etc., he will spend 3-400 silver months every day.

There are also benefits. After the commercial district is put into operation, civilians will start to consume, and part of the money will flow back, thus promoting construction.

In addition to basic ground laying, house construction, etc., such as the manufacturing of farm tools in the blacksmith factory and the manufacturing of cupboards in the carpenter's workshop, you can make money, which slows down the speed at which Li Qi spends money every day.

The only problem is that there isn't much to buy, and porcupine collarers are used to saving money.

"Promoting consumption is the most important thing."

Li Qi wrote a reply to Miss Hongqiangwei, solemnly thanking her for her help. Anyway, it doesn't cost money to say good things, so say more and praise her hard.

“It would be great if I could master how to make perfume.”

The price of soap 30 times is already the limit of Li Qi's conscience. At that time, he did not expect that the soap would be so easy to sell, otherwise he might choose to unconscionably price it at 40 silver months. No more is possible. The price is too expensive and some people will choose Use perfume.

Some of the people here refer to aristocratic men, because men don't like to take baths, so perfume is convenient for them.

The highest proportion of Lureyan people who have no body odor is definitely no more than 10%, that is, 10 out of 9 people have body odor, so noble men will also use perfume or other methods to eliminate the smell.

Li Qi didn't use perfume before. After becoming a transcendent, he didn't sweat very much, and the smell was insulated from him.

In the evening, many people have finished their work for the day.

This is also the time when the wet market is the most crowded.

Li Qi took his secretary with a small notebook to the vegetable market in the business district.

Since it was built, he has only seen it through the eyes of an eagle, but has never been there in person.

When people saw Li Qi, they stopped and bowed.

It was the lord who brought about all these changes. Li Qi's prestige in the Porcupine Territory was unmatched by anyone, not even his father Lid.

Li Qi nodded slightly and sighed in his heart: "The people are simple and honest."

There are garbage and vegetable leaves on the ground, there is smelly mud on the ground, and there are also littered fruit cores.

very good!

At least there can't be garbage in the trash can or people lying on the bed, which shows that the vegetable market is really running and not fooling itself.

If someone really dares to do this, Li Qi doesn't mind giving him ten lashes. He can be punished heavily for insulting the lord's wisdom, and he can be directly demoted to a slave.

Hygienic issues can be dealt with slowly, and habits are cultivated little by little.

Some people didn't see Li Qi.

A peasant woman was holding two cabbages and arguing excitedly to the old farmer selling vegetables: "This one costs 1 bronze star, and this one costs 1 bronze star. They are not the same size."

The old farmer saw Li Qi, but Li Qi motioned him to continue doing business and just watched.

I didn't understand what Li Qi meant. Since the Lord didn't say anything, he just did it the same way. The old farmer said, "They are only 1 bronze star each. You can pick the one you like."

"But I want to buy two!" said the peasant woman, "but the sizes of these two dishes are different."

The old farmer had a headache.

Then the peasant woman noticed something was wrong in the atmosphere. She turned around and found the lord standing aside and watching quietly.

"Sir, I..." She was startled.

Her aggressive appearance would definitely be considered rude by the noble lord. She was a little panicked, but the vegetables were of different sizes and she was unwilling to suffer.

Since it was 1 Bronze Star, she wanted two of the same size, otherwise no matter which one was smaller, it would be a loss.

"I only want this one." She paid and asked for the biggest cabbage.

The entire vegetable market knew that he was coming, and all the disputes and hustle and bustle that should have disappeared, and became very quiet.

Knowing that he could no longer watch, Li Qi had no choice but to turn around and leave.

No wonder some private interviewers said that if they showed up on their own, they wouldn’t be able to do business.

"From now on, when buying food at the wet market in commercial districts, you must weigh it. Things of non-specific value must also be weighed." Li Qi spoke to the little secretary. The other party immediately picked up a pen to record, and drew the words he couldn't write, as long as he remembered it. Just say: "When Joe comes back, let him teach a group of small businessmen selling vegetables."

The little secretary wrote quickly, recording Li Qi's words.

He knew that after Joe came back with the caravan, he would need to remind the lord of these things.

Heavenly Father, among the four gods, holds a scale and is considered the god of business.

Whether it is a balance or a steelyard, they are already very mature methods of weighing. However, the problem is that the people in the Porcupine collar are too poor. They could not afford to eat before, so they mostly bartered and were illiterate.

Now that you have money, if you decide whether to buy something large or small, you will feel that you are at a loss.

I can throw it away if I can't eat it and wait for it to rot, but I can't buy the small one. I have a very normal mentality. Li Qi would think the same thing.

If Li Qi can open a school to teach people some knowledge and basic writing, it can solve many problems, but it is still the same old problem. Let the children go to school to learn knowledge. Why not let the children go to the brick kiln to dig mud and make clay pots? Even if you don't go out to work, you can still cook at home. When your family members come back from work, you can eat directly. You can also cook and do odd jobs at home.

Even if there is a precedent for apprenticeships in the city hall, not everyone will let their children learn.

Instead of forcing them to go to school, an apprenticeship system is most suitable for the current environment.

Make money while studying, and you can support yourself after becoming a teacher.

It is unreasonable for apprentices to start doing some key tasks, and it may even be a disservice. Do you have to pay for it yourself? That would be even more of a joke.

“It is very necessary to cultivate your own talents.”

Jobs are divided into three, six or nine levels. If you want promotion, higher status, and higher income, you must pass the corresponding assessment.

Some people think it's good to earn a living every day by making clay pots, but there are also people who are not satisfied with the hard and monotonous work and also want to work in the city hall. At this time, they are given a learning path and the selected talents are also motivated.
