Traveling back to ancient times begins with the use of stone tools

Academician Liu felt very embarrassed to say that Lengjia Village did not look very poor.

“That would be great”

Leng Ruoxue was of course welcome. With the guidance of Grand Scholar Liu, Leng Yuxuan no longer had to go to the academy.

"I wonder if you are dissatisfied with the accommodation? Do you have any special requests for food?"

"No... yes, it's that electric light. Can you install one for my study as well? Of course, if it's inconvenient, forget it."

“Convenient, convenient”

Luckily I had a spare bulb.

Leng Ruoxue went back and took out the wires and light bulbs, and installed them in Liu Daxueshi's bedroom and study. Later, she thought that since the glass factory was going to be built anyway, there was no need to be so stingy, so she removed the wires and light bulbs in the other guest courtyard and installed them in Liu Daxueshi's courtyard.

"Mr. Nan, I want to discuss something with you."

The two teachers went around the village on their own initiative.

"My surname is Nangong, my given name is Yi"

"I know, isn't it hard to pronounce Master Nangong? Why not call him Master Nan for short? Besides, the surname Nangong is so rare, are you going to expose your identity?"

Nangong Yi: So, this girl actually knows everything.

"It's like this. I want to change the rules for the sale of soap and adopt a three-tier distributor model instead of an auction model."

“What is a tertiary distributor?”

"The price of each type of soap is fixed. If you buy 3000 bars of soap at a time, you will be from the first-tier supplier with the lowest price. If you buy 500 bars at a time, you will be from the second-tier supplier, and the price is % higher than the first-tier supplier. If you buy bars at a time, you will be from the third-tier supplier, and the price is % higher than the first-tier supplier."

Nangong Yi calculated, "Wouldn't your profit be less this way?"

"Not necessarily. The quantity can be increased, and it will also be convenient to settle accounts with Master Nangong."

"Can"

Nangong Yi cares about money, but he cares more about Leng Ruoxue.

"One more thing. I'm planning to open a paper mill. Would you like to invest in it? You just need to take a share of the turnover, and you don't have to pay any money."

"Can you make paper?"

Nangong Yi was curious about where she learned it.

"When there was a severe drought, I met a master from Yongming Valley who was dying of thirst. I gave him a few bowls of water, and he taught me..."

"Eternal Brightness Valley?"

"Yes, the soap is also produced by Yongming Valley, but I was not given the method of making the soap, only the product was provided."

“And this light, too?”

"Yes, it is said that there is no night in Yongming Valley."

After hearing this, Nangong Yi's confusion was solved. No wonder he couldn't find out the source of the soap. It seems that he should investigate Yongming Valley.

"Tomorrow is the soap auction. If the method of grading suppliers is feasible, customers can control the time of soap purchase themselves in the future."

"I will place the transaction at the inn in Lengjia Village from now on."

The shop next to the inn was originally planned to be a snack shop, but now it seems that we need to find another place.

After confirming with Nangong Yi, Leng Ruoxue began to make arrangements.

First, set the price and quantity of each type of soap.

This time she planned to sell an extra 4 bars of soap, a total of 2.5 bars. The lowest price was taels of silver. Seeing that she couldn't collect the fee, she tried to add a little to the price of the soap to reduce the loss.

The highest was 4.5 taels of silver.

At the same time, the decoration of the Lengjia Village Sales Office was arranged.

She went to the village chief again to buy Xishan. This time she went to the county town with the village chief.

After the village's housing land was planned, the locations of each household changed and the land deeds needed to be changed.

The clerk felt that there was something strange about Lengjia Village. The land deeds were the same size, but the entire village had changed. Even the land deeds of the wealthy Leng Ruoxue had changed. He had to go and investigate on the spot.

He took two yamen runners with him to Lengjia Village, and was excited when he saw the road to the villa.

"Have you really repaired this road? It's so smooth and the ground is so hard? Doesn't it make it much more convenient to get into the county town?..."

The clerk was excited and wanted everyone to admit that the route he had planned was correct.

"Yes, thank you for your advice. I wonder if there is a good route in West Mountain?"

Leng Ruoxue just asked casually.

"Yes, if a road can be built in Xishan, it will go directly to the dock of Xihai County in Dongwu County. Although the dock of Xihai County is not big, it will be much more convenient to transport materials with it."

The clerk looked at Leng Ruoxue with shining eyes.

It has a sense of, "My ambitions depend on you."

"If this road is completed, goods from the surrounding counties can be transported from our county to the dock and directly to the capital by water."

Leng Ruoxue:……

She has always wanted to develop her own piece of land and space. Now there is a road to the dock. Should she repair it or not? There are not enough people in the village.

She just wanted to buy a mountain and use the trees on the mountain to make toilet paper.

The clerk was stunned when he saw the neat and clean Lengjia Village. No wonder they had to exchange the land deeds collectively.

"West Mountain is actually much larger than East Mountain, so we won't mark the boundary of West Mountain for you. We can only mark the area around Lengjia Village. The road on the mountain is not easy to walk on, and there are not many people around other borders. Lengjia Village had too few people and land back then, so West Mountain was given to Lengjia Village."

Finally, Leng Ruoxue asked the clerk for a simple map, and only then did she have a not-so-complete understanding of the surrounding situation.

In the evening, Leng Zejin learned that Leng Yuxuan would return to Yongliu Villa, so he came over to spend another night with his son.

Leng Yuxuan now has his own big yard, two servants, and his father, mother, and sister. He is very happy.

I don’t miss the house opposite Leng Ruoxue’s school at all.

Leng Zejin was also fortunate enough to witness the soap trade.

The villa welcomed merchants early in the morning.

There are old customers as well as new customers who come here because of its reputation.

The hall can accommodate a hundred people, but it is still not enough, so a lot of chairs were temporarily added to make it enough. Fortunately, a batch of benches were prepared when the villagers were entertained.

Many merchants were afraid of missing the auction, so under the leadership of the first group of merchants who were staying in the village inn, many people had already moved into the village inn.

I heard that the rules of this auction have been changed. The reserve price is given directly, and then the items are graded according to the quantity.

Most of the merchants who understood were very happy.

Some new customers knew about the price viewing fee and came just for the purpose of taking a look. Now they don’t have to pay the price viewing fee, so they are naturally happy.

The merchants who failed to take pictures several times were even happier.

Only a few big customers raised objections, but Leng Ruoxue did not give in and directly announced the price and quantity.

Because you can add together the quantities of several soaps to make up a total order, the scene is very lively.

The group buying model emerged.

I also learned that there will be no time limit and you can pick it up as soon as the goods are available. The longest pick-up period is one month. The soap inventory is posted in the sales department next to the inn.

Such a convenient model has been accepted by most people.

When the big merchants who were against the product saw that some small merchants had formed a team, they stopped protesting and quickly started buying.
