After farming, I opened a family tree
Chapter 19: Xiang Niang's Visit
"Madam Xiang, do the nobles like soap very much?"
Shen Tao opened her eyes and asked curiously.
"Oh, such a good thing, how could those nobles not love it? The He family went to the shop to inquire about it a long time ago. It's not that your sister was slow to deliver it, so I came here to pick it up myself."
Madam Xiang spoke with great enthusiasm.
"This must be very expensive, right?"
Madam Xiang was just about to say, your sister made a lot of money.
But I held back the words when they came to my lips.
They are from the same family and are sisters, how could they not know how much they were sold for.
Since Sister Shen Tang is so capable, if she didn't say anything, there must be a reason for not saying it.
She was also careless.
"It's not like they make much money, it's just something the rich people want to try."
On the rest of the way, Madam Xiang just smiled and didn't say anything else.
"Sister, who do you think is here?"
The door of Shen Tang's courtyard was not locked during the day, but just closed.
So when Shen Tao pushed the door open and walked in, Liu and Shen Dashan in the yard were both startled.
"Oh, sister-in-law, it's me."
Xiang Niangzi stood up in real time.
Liu was surprised and happy.
"Tangtang, Shopkeeper Xiang is here."
When Shen Tang walked out of the cabin, he was still holding a piece of soap that had not been completely trimmed.
"I saw you were taking so long to come, and someone in town was pressing me to come, so I came to see you myself."
"If there's anything ready, I'll take some away so you don't have to run around... Hey, is that soap you're holding too?"
Madam Xiang was attracted by the soap in Shen Tang's hand.
The soap is pure white and slightly translucent, and feels like a piece of fine white jade in your hand.
Last time Shen Tang said he would give her something better, could this be it?
Shen Tang also noticed Xiang Niang's gaze.
"Mrs. Xiang, come with me."
As he said this, he took Xiang Niang into the hut.
"This this......"
Madam Xiang was so shocked by the number of soaps that she was speechless.
There seemed to be a thousand pieces of soap on the shelf, and a small portion of them were the same as the one in Shen Tang's hand.
"I haven't asked Shopkeeper Xiang if his trip to the capital went smoothly yet?"
"Don't tell me, the price of this soap has doubled since it entered the city. It's just that I don't have any connections in Lin'an Prefecture, otherwise the price would definitely be even higher."
Madam Xiang told Shen Tang that she had packed the soap and sold it to the rare goods shop.
Shen Tang nodded.
The price of packaged soap is definitely different from the retail price. If you open a shop in the capital city, this piece of soap can be sold for at least three taels of silver.
"But, sister, are those white ones also soaps?"
"It's soap, but that's not for washing hands or clothes. This white soap can be used for bathing and washing your face!"
You can take a shower and wash your face!
In this era, wealthy families all used bath beans. In villages like Shenjia Village, let alone bath beans, people basically just rubbed the soap nuts casually.
Shen Tang took a piece of white soap and placed it in Madam Xiang's hand.
There is also a fresh fragrance, which is different from the previous one. This time the smell is more floral.
After smelling the scent, Xiang Niang's eyes lit up even more.
"These white soaps have a minimum price of five taels of silver."
Shen Tang weighed it over before speaking.
"You can't buy something this good for five taels of silver. The worst bath beans on the market cost two taels of silver. I heard some bath beans have expensive medicinal herbs added to them, and they even cost ten taels of silver each!"
What's more, this white soap not only looks several times more refined than bath beans, but also smells incredibly fragrant.
Rich families use incense to fumigate their clothes, firstly to create fragrance, and secondly to cover up the smell of algae and medicinal herbs on their bodies.
"Shopkeeper Xiang is a woman of great courage. I entrust this thing to you."
"I will handle it."
Madam Xiang looked around the door and when she found no one was there, she took out some silver bills from her bosom.
"This is the money for the soap I bought last time. I bought four hundred taels in total, and this is two hundred and eighty taels."
Shen Tang took the banknote, stuffed it into his arms, and then put it into the system's backpack compartment.
This was something she discovered by accident, that the system's backpack compartments could hold things.
Just put it in a bag and it will fit into a grid.
This means that as long as there is a large enough container, no matter how much it weighs, it can be put into the backpack compartment.
But unfortunately, there are only ten backpack slots now.
"Shopkeeper Xiang, I can only give you one hundred yuan for this white soap."
Madam Xiang looked at the shelf behind Shen Tang, which was obviously worth more than a hundred yuan.
"The shopkeeper is a wise man. He should know that scarcity makes things valuable."
Madam Xiang was stunned for a moment, then reacted.
Is she really only thirteen?
Madam Xiang looked at Shen Tang, who was only at her shoulder.
"You take these 100 bars of white soap and sell them for only 10 a day."
Madam Xiang has been doing business for more than ten years, and she seemed to understand what Shen Tang said.
She came here just to get soap, so she put two baskets in the car.
He immediately asked the maid and the old woman to take the soap away.
In the yard, Shen Tao kept poking her head out.
She originally wanted to follow in, but was stopped by Liu.
"Auntie, how do you know Shopkeeper Xiang? What is soap?"
After Liu Shi knew that her daughter had told Shen Tao about what she had done to her, she felt disgusted with her niece and said lightly,
"Go back."
Shen Tao was quite surprised to see Liu's cold attitude towards her.
"Aunt, did I do something wrong? You used to love Ah Tao the most."
Liu was extremely shocked when she saw the tears welling up in Shen Tao's eyes.
Therefore, when Shen Tang and Xiang Niang came out, they saw Shen Tao standing in front of Liu with tears in her eyes.
"Shen Tao, do you want to scam my mother?"
Shen Tao turned around and saw Shen Tang and Xiang Niang looking at her.
"No, it's my fault. I made my aunt angry."
Listen.
"Oh, if I throw you into the Qingshui River, it will become a Qingcha River."
The green tea flavor is so strong!
Shen Tao didn't understand what Shen Tang said, but her intuition told her that it was not a good thing.
"Since you don't welcome me, I'll leave first."
When he turned around, he glanced at Madam Xiang.
Xiang Niangzi: It’s quite confusing.
"Isn't she your sister?"
"Cousin, the family has already separated."
hiss--
Madam Xiang felt that she might have said something she shouldn't have said.
She told Shen Tang about her encounter with Shen Tao on the road.
"But don't worry, I didn't tell you how much our soap sold."
After Shen Tao left, Xiang Niang also left after packing the soap.
At Shen Dahe's home.
"I asked you to pick flowers, but you came back empty-handed."
Wang was very dissatisfied when she saw her daughter coming back empty-handed.
"Mother, guess who I saw. Madam Xiang from town! She's the female owner of the Yueren Pavilion!"
Wang was a woman, so she naturally knew about Yueren Pavilion.
"What is she doing in the village?"
"She went to Shen Tang's house to get soap!"
Shen Tao told Wang and Shen Dahe about the matter in detail.
"The things in Yueren Pavilion are not cheap. Big brother and his men are actually connected with Xiang Niangzi. There must be something fishy."
"What is this soap?"
"Dad, Mom, I think this must be related to the yellow fruit."
The Shen Tang family had no idea that the second house next door was discussing this matter in full swing.
The news that Xiang Niang brought today gave her great confidence in soap.
She wants to sell the soap throughout Da Qi!
