Traveling through ancient times, the empress insisted on having a child with me
Chapter 51 Low-key Luxury
The kiss went from soothing to passionate, from passionate to arousing, and from arousing to raging fire, until Ling Chuan's hand slipped into Lu Xi's clothes and stopped abruptly.
Lu Xi held Ling Chuan's hand, looked at him seductively but shook her head: "It's not convenient today."
The three-meter-high fire was extinguished in an instant. Ling Chuan thought to himself, "Why did you take off your clothes just now? It's inconvenient, but he said, "Let's eat noodles first."
Ling Chuan scooped a spoonful of sauce, but found that the sauce and noodles were cold: "They are cold, I will go heat them up for you."
He picked up the bowl and walked out, but Lu Xi said from behind: "Ling Chuan, who do you think is prettier, me or Tao Ran?"
When Ling Chuan turned his head, he saw Lu Xi swinging his arms and dancing gracefully with his body following his arms.
Although there were only a few simple movements, Ling Chuan was instantly mesmerized. Different from Tao Ran, Lu Xi was born with charm, but it was usually concealed by her aloof and arrogant expression. Once it bloomed at this moment, Ling Chuan could no longer control himself.
He turned around and put the bowl on the table, then embraced Lu Xi in his arms like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey. The two hot bodies entangled together, and under Ling Chuan's deliberate guidance, they gradually moved towards the bedroom in the inner room.
This time, Ling Chuan's hand directly broke through Lu Xi's defense line and wandered freely in her clothes. After a moment, Lu Xi was already panting with spring water in her eyes.
When Ling Chuan's big hand reached down, Lu Xi suddenly arched her body, curled up like a shrimp, bit her lower lip and shook her head at Ling Chuan.
The almost pleading look forced Ling Chuan to stop fighting and hold Lu Xi in his arms, saying softly: "You are the most beautiful in my heart, and every smile of yours makes me intoxicated."
Just this one line of lyrics made Lu Xi melt in Ling Chuan's arms.
The two stayed together until midnight, when Lu Xi reluctantly left. The way Cao Huanchun and Xiao Taohong looked at Ling Chuan changed.
How did he go from murderous to affectionate?
……
Early the next morning, Liao Yishou led his apprentices to pull a cart of flat glass. They thought it was going to be installed on the windows, but they didn't expect that Lingchuan asked the craftsmen to embed the glass on the counter to make a glass counter.
Liao Yishou was puzzled: "What is this for?"
"It's dustproof. This counter sells snacks. It's not clean to put it in the street. Can't we just cover it up?"
Ling Chuan said: "This is the best way to promote. Compared with ordinary people, merchants are more receptive to new things. Once my counter opens, others will follow suit. Then, Master Liao, you will be busy."
Liao Yishou asked quietly: "What's the price of this thing?"
Ling Chuan also lowered his voice: "How is the price of the glass ornaments that Master Liao usually makes?"
"It depends on the size and craftsmanship. The bigger the size, the more expensive it is. The more complicated the craftsmanship, the more expensive it is. Generally speaking, one inch costs one ounce of silver."
"Okay, the price for flat glass will also be the same." Ling Chuan thought for a moment and added, "If it's over one foot, it'll be doubled."
"what?"
Liao Yishou was shocked. Colored glaze jewelry requires fine craftsmanship. In the entire capital, only items made by him, Liao Yishou himself, are worth this price. If the craftsmanship is not good, no one will want them.
But the craftsmanship of making these flat glass plates is simple, and his apprentices can make them with a little skill. How can he dare to sell them at this price?
Ling Chuan gently patted Liao Yishou's shoulder and said, "The goods are fresh, so they have to be sold at a high price, otherwise no one will want them. Just listen to me."
Liao Yishou asked again: "The largest size we can make now is only one foot and five centimeters. What about those larger than one foot..."
"Double it." Ling Chuan remained calm and said, "From now on, the sizes will be fixed. A nine-inch one will be sold for nine taels of silver, a foot and a half will be sold for twenty-two taels, a foot and a half will be sold for thirty-six taels, and a foot and a half will be sold for forty-eight taels."
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, one foot and three inches is thirty-six taels?" Liao was completely confused.
"This is called low-key luxury. For example, a nine-inch and a foot-and-a-half may seem similar when viewed separately, but when you compare them, you'll find that they're twice as expensive." Ling Chuan said, "You have to understand the mentality of those wealthy families. They just like to show off their strength quietly."
Liao Yishou also specialized in doing business with wealthy families, and he quickly understood what Ling Chuan meant.
"Look, if you want to be more practical, you can buy a nine-inch one. It's bright and spacious, and it's also enough to show off your wealth. People who are not short of money will definitely buy whatever size they can get. You can slowly study the ratio of the raw materials and try to make the size bigger."
Liao Yishou nodded repeatedly, and then asked: "The glass mirror that Master Ling mentioned..."
Ling Chuan chuckled, "Don't worry. You have to eat one bite at a time and make money one penny at a time. When the glazed windows are almost sold out, we will launch the glazed mirrors. Let me tell you, the glazed windows are useful for more than just this. When we expand our business, we will scale it up. By then, I guarantee that you will count the money until your hands cramp."
Liao Yishou didn't understand what scale-up meant, but he could still understand it even though his hands were cramping from counting money. He immediately put on a smile and said, "Let's get rich together, let's get rich together."
Ling Chuan chatted with Liao Yishou for a long time, discussing many details and development plans. Liao Yishou was amazed and went back happily.
However, just after lunch, another customer came to the shop, it was He Dong from Weihesheng.
Ever since He Dong conspired with Xu Heng last time to seize Yun Fu Ji's secret recipe, after thinking about it for a few days, he decided to give it a try and exchange his own secret recipe for a gold medal franchise store.
When Ling Chuan heard that He Dong was willing to disclose the secret recipe, he couldn't help but smile: "Manager He is really wise."
"No, no, I'm just trying to make a living."
After a few pleasantries, Ling Chuan got down to business: "Since Shopkeeper He has chosen to trust me, I will definitely not let you down. I have always believed in one thing when doing business, that is, everyone makes money. After all, there is no end to the money. First of all, I can ensure that Shopkeeper He's secret recipe will never be passed on to others. In the future, if anyone joins the Gold Medal franchise store, the secret recipe they share can also be sold in Shopkeeper He's shop. This is called cooperation is beneficial to both sides, and everyone will make a fortune."
"Yes, yes, yes, everyone gets rich, everyone gets rich." He Dong took out a piece of paper and placed it in front of Ling Chuan: "This is the secret recipe of my two signature dim sums, Wei and Sheng. Shopkeeper Ling, please take a look."
Ling Chuan picked it up and glanced at it, saying, "To be honest with Shopkeeper He, I don't really understand these things either. Let's go to the shop in front together. As long as the snacks are ready, we'll sign the contract right away."
He Dong raised his eyebrows and said, "Of course, of course. There are still some tricks to this secret recipe. I will explain it to you when we make it."
"Then it's up to Shopkeeper He to show his skills."
"How dare you?"
Although He Dong was polite in his words, he was extremely excited in his heart. It turned out that Ling Chuan was an amateur and asked him to teach him how to make dim sum. Wouldn't this mean that he would have the opportunity to see what secret recipe Yun Fu Ji used?
