The two of them arrived at the largest grocery store in town. This is the largest in town, and the items sold here are relatively complete compared to other stores. There are not many categories, and the prices are relatively low, but the quality is guaranteed. There are both high and low prices, and the customer range covered is also very wide.

The words "Babao Pavilion" were written in large letters on the plaque.

The four people looked at the plaque and thought that the shop was quite grand. They walked into the shop, which was filled with shops and the dazzling array of goods dazzled everyone.

The shop owner saw that the four people were wearing old clothes, but he did not look down on them. He asked politely if they needed anything.

Shopkeeper, I came here this time to show you something good. Yun Tao took out a piece of homemade soap.

"Auntie, we have this thing in our store. This is soap. Look, it's this one, but yours looks better, crystal clear."

"But this is used to wash hair. Whether it looks good or not actually has little impact on customers."

"Shopkeeper, I am a villager from Shili Village. My name is Yuntao. I made this myself. You can only see that it looks good now. You can bring a basin of water and we can try its cleaning effect. This soap is also very durable."

"Okay, Auntie, I'll listen to you. My last name is Wu. You can just call me Shopkeeper Wu."

"Immediately, a waiter brought a basin of water, and Shopkeeper Wu immediately took a piece of soap and began to wash a dirty towel. The more he washed, the more amazing it became, and he was very happy."

"Yun Tao saw the look on Shopkeeper Wu's face and immediately handed over another piece of soap with a coconut scent. Shopkeeper Wu, you can use this one to wash again. This soap can also be used to wash hands, and of course, to take a bath. It has a fragrance, and it smells very comfortable, with a light coconut scent. Our soap not only has the scent of coconut, but also the scent of rose, jasmine, and gardenia. There are four scents for you to choose from."

Shopkeeper Wu washed the soaps and sniffed them again and again. He was filled with joy and was extremely happy. It was like he had found a treasure.

"Auntie, how do you sell these fat houses?"

"Shopkeeper Wu, I am a fair person. The price of a soap without fragrance is one tael of silver, and the price of a soap with fragrance is two taels of silver."

"Hey, hey, hey," Shopkeeper Wu said with an embarrassed expression. "Auntie, this is too expensive. I don't think many people can afford such expensive soap."

"Shopkeeper Wu, soap is something that ordinary people cannot use. Everyone knows that only wealthy merchants and dignitaries can use these soaps. People like us who make a living on the land naturally can't bear to part with them. But Shopkeeper Wu, do you think this soap is clean and looks good? And compare it with the ones in your store. Is it relatively more durable?"

"Especially scented soaps. How does it smell? Doesn't it smell very comfortable? Not pungent at all? If you use it to bathe, your body will still smell fragrant the next day. This kind of soap is perfect for selling to rich ladies and some places. You know, Shopkeeper Wu, I have no shortage of sales."

Shopkeeper Wu thought about it and agreed that it was indeed the case, except that it was too expensive and he could only sell a few dollars a month.

"Manager Wu, you have been in this town for so many years. You can cooperate with some places and supply them with goods. They are willing to spend money. Of course, if you don't want to, I, Yuntao, can also cooperate with them directly. Their consumption is very huge."

When Shopkeeper Wu heard what Yun Tao said, there was everything he didn't understand.

"Okay, but Madam Wu, your price should be a little bit more beautiful. It is indeed a little expensive. We don't sell it at a high price in a small place like this. Please let me make a little more profit."

"Shopkeeper Wu, the unscented soaps are not going to be any cheaper. My cost is also very high. Look at this. The scented soaps are 100 wen less each, and there is no way they can be any less."

"Okay, let's do it this way. First, 10 of each shape of soap, and 20 of each shape and scent. I'll test the waters first. If it sells well, I'll go to the village you mentioned and find you there."

"Don't worry, you will be able to find me. One of my three sons will deliver the goods. These are my three sons. I don't have much goods today, so I'll give you two of each. You can sell them first. If you go home early today, I'll deliver the rest. If you go home late, I'll arrange for someone to deliver it to you tomorrow morning."

"Shopkeeper Wu, you can give these opened bottles to customers to try, or take them back to your family. I won't count your money."

"Shopkeeper Wu is even happier. This can save a lot of money, and he can also give two pieces to his wife and daughter. They will definitely be very happy. Mr. Wu Zhang, the more you think about it, the happier you are."

After leaving the Treasure Pavilion, Daniu whispered to his mother, "Mom, this soap is too profitable. Our cost was only a few taels of silver, but now we can sell it for nearly 200 taels of silver."

Sanniu: "Yes, mother, if we continue like this, we will become rich sooner or later. I am excited just thinking about it."

"Don't be too happy about the results. First, this soap is very durable. One piece can be used for a long time. Second, the price is not cheap. You can see that I sell it to them for at least one tael of silver. How many taels do you think Manager Wu will sell? She may not be able to sell a few pieces of this in a day, unless she sells it to farther places or the imperial capital."

"We have already made several hundred bars of soap. We can't make any more. It depends on how the sales go in the next few days. It also depends on the reaction of the owner of Zhenwei Restaurant."

"The three of you should go to the remaining grocery stores in town one by one. Try everything regardless of success or failure. Also, remember to bring back the soap you took for trial."

When the four of them returned home, it was dark.

Da Niu: "Mom, my second brother, my youngest brother and I went to all the grocery stores in town. Only two of them wanted soap. The price is the same as yours and Baibao Pavilion's. We dare not lower the price. But they didn't want much. They only wanted 2 pieces of soap for each kind. Another store only wanted one piece for each kind. The total is 2 taels of silver.

Erniu: "Mom, I'm sorry, no one I went to wanted it. They thought we were robbing them and the price we asked was too outrageous. They said it was just a bar of soap, but they made such a fuss that no one wanted it. Instead, they scolded us."

Sanniu: "Mom, there is only one family here who wants soap, but they only want 2 bars, one without fragrance, and one with fragrance. The total is 20 taels of silver."
