My wife left me in my old age, so I built the strongest family

Chapter 35 Is there anyone more suitable besides me?

After Li Changqing sold the blue pills, those wealthy businessmen and officials all returned home.

"Master, what is this?"

Shopkeeper Zeng had just sat on a chair in the lobby for a while when a plump and beautiful woman walked in from outside the door.

She saw her master staring down at the blue pill in his hand and found it very strange.

Shopkeeper Zeng smiled bitterly and said, "Nothing. I went to see Master Li and bought some pills to replenish my body."

The woman was surprised: "But is it Master Li who married the eldest daughter of the Zhou family?"

Shopkeeper Zeng said with a smile, "Not only that, do you know Miss Xueyue from Hongyue Tower?"

"I know! How could I not know? There was a time when the master often went to Hongyue Tower to seek people's care!"

The woman said resentfully.

Shopkeeper Zeng's face turned grim, filled with anger. "Ah, I really can't understand why even she was taken in by this guy surnamed Li! Why?!"

He is angry!

Not only was he angry, but the entire Ma County was also furious when they heard that Lin Xueyue appeared in the Li family.

But there is nothing to do.

Who can blame him for being an alchemist with strong strength? I heard that he killed the leader of a sect in Hongyue Tower not long ago. Even if someone is jealous of him, they dare not do anything to him.

"Huh? Isn't it?"

The woman was baffled when she heard this: "I've heard that he's just an old, frail fellow. How could he have such power to control so many women?"

Shopkeeper Zeng slapped his head and said, "I can't figure it out either. Why is he so powerful?"

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he couldn't help but look at the beautiful woman sitting next to him.

She has a voluptuous figure and round contours. She has flesh where it should be fleshy and slim where it should be slim. She is full of seductive charm.

An evil thought arose in his mind, and he squeezed hard with his hand.

The woman blushed immediately and looked at him expectantly, "Master, are you ready again?"

Shopkeeper Zeng didn't say much. He planned to prove with practical actions that he was definitely no worse than that old man Li Changqing!

Just treat this beautiful concubine as Lin Xueyue who despised him and abuse her ruthlessly!

But within two minutes, he quickly sat down on the edge of the bed with regret, covering his old face.

"Master, you still...can't do it."

The resentful voice of his beautiful concubine came from behind him, which hurt his heart again.

"It's not that I can't do it! It's just..."

Shopkeeper Zeng wanted to use his old age as an excuse, but when the words came to his lips, he held them back.

He thought of this guy Li Changqing, who was still okay even with half his body buried in the ground. How could he, a middle-aged man who was just over 40, be worse than him?

"Why? Why exactly?"

"In what way am I inferior to him?"

He angrily shook the table next to him, and as luck would have it, a few blue pills were shaken up.

"Ok?"

"This medicine..."

Shopkeeper Zeng remembered that this medicine seemed to be an aphrodisiac.

At that time, he was busy trying to please Li Changqing and almost forgot about it.

"Aphrodisiac? Could it be... that's why that bastard is still standing?"

Shopkeeper Zeng looked at the pills eagerly and swallowed.

I remember that the man surnamed Li was an alchemist.

The pills he refines should be pretty good.

Finally, the shopkeeper Zeng hardened his heart and said, "Fuck it! Never mind, just eat it. I don't care where you are from!"

He swallowed one in one gulp, and just when he didn't feel anything, suddenly, his body became hot.

He was breathing heavily, as if he had been injected with chicken blood, and his muscles were swelling.

At this moment, Zeng Zhang seemed to have transformed into a wild beast and began to search for prey.

When he finally saw the beautiful concubine on the bed, he pounced on her without hesitation.

"what!!"

With a scream and then a blushing and heart-pounding sound, it was really unbearable to watch.

After waiting for half an hour, Manager Zeng looked at his beautiful concubine who had fainted and burst into tears.

"I, Old Zeng, have come to this day!!"

He quickly picked up the few remaining pills and put them away as if they were treasures.

"This is an elixir! An elixir! It's totally worth it!"

"Lao Li, I love you so much!"

……

At the same time, the same plot was unfolding in different places.

Those who took the pills home were all greatly excited.

Everyone's face was filled with joy.

Soon, someone couldn't wait any longer and found Li Changqing to order the pills again.

"So fast?"

In just one day, Li Changqing received more than 30 orders.

He had only sold it to twenty people at first.

No, where did the extra dozen orders come from?

There is no need to think about it, some of them must have been introduced by friends, or those people wanted to change their status and buy more.

"Master, we should raise the price."

Xiaodie reminded.

She redeemed herself from Hongyue Tower and came to Li Changqing's home, where she took on the role of housekeeper. She usually took care of some chores, which was not difficult for her. Sometimes she would also give Li Changqing suggestions, which Li Changqing would sometimes take.

"Xiaodie, tell me, how much should we raise now?"

Li Changqing asked her back with a smile.

Xiaodie picked up the order on the table, looked at it, touched her chin, and said:

"Seeing that their response is good, we have to at least double the price. If it's too much, triple it. One hundred and fifty taels is the highest price they can accept."

Li Changqing nodded in response: "Yes, you are right. The highest amount these people can accept is only one hundred and fifty taels, but I won't set it that low."

"Low? That's not low."

Xiaodie thought that this was still quite low. One hundred and fifty taels could buy a lot of tonics, and it was definitely too expensive to buy just one pill.

"Xiaodie, good goods never lack buyers. You must remember this."

Li Changqing patted her hands earnestly and said, "Even if I set the price at 500 taels now, they will definitely buy it."

"Five hundred taels? Master, you don't really want to set a price that high, do you?"

Fluttershy asked worriedly.

Li Changqing nodded without comment.

Xiaodie shook her head vigorously: "No, sir, this price is too high. Although those high-ranking officials have a lot of money, Ma County is still just a county. There are very few people who can spend 500 taels to buy such a tonic. Moreover, if you want to use this to enter the homes of ordinary people, it is simply impossible."

Seeing her trying her best to dissuade him, Li Changqing smiled with relief:

"Don't worry, five hundred taels is just its original price, but that doesn't mean it has only one price."

Xiaodie's eyes widened: "Master, what do you mean?"

Li Changqing picked up the pill, kneaded it and broke it into pieces.

"The products are divided into many grades. For example, if I sell a whole pill for 500 taels, others won't be able to afford it. So I can crush it into powder, add other herbs to make other pills, make ten batches, and sell them for 50 taels. Do you think anyone will buy it?"

Hearing this, Xiaodie nodded in confusion: "Yes, there will definitely be people who will try it."

Li Changqing continued, "And if I divide the powder and use it to make a drink, with each cup containing only a few hundredths of the content, and sell it for only one ounce of silver, or a few hundred coins, do you think ordinary people would buy it?"

Xiaodie thought for a moment and said, "It depends on the effect. If the effect is good, it will probably work."

Li Changqing grinned and pointed to the pile of orders on the table, "Yes, the feedback is right in front of us now."

Xiaodie looked at the order and was speechless. She had already begun to hope that this thing might work.

Li Changqing does what he says.

The price of the blue pill was immediately raised to five hundred taels of silver.

As expected, this move scared away many buyers.

Five hundred taels of silver? Just to buy an aphrodisiac pill, is this a joke?

But Li Changqing soon launched a new product, the red pill, which was made from blue pill powder and other aphrodisiacs.

Only fifty taels!

It immediately attracted a lot of attention.

This is not the end yet, Li Changqing has launched another product, Children's Water!

That is, the powder is diluted and made into a drink.

Only eight hundred coins are needed!

Now, whether you are rich, relatively wealthy, or ordinary people, there are products to choose from. It can be said that this product is aimed at thousands of households.

However, on the day of the opening of the sale, there were almost no people coming to the door of the Songzitang shop opened by the Li family.

Apart from those who had bought pills from Li Changqing before, there were no other businessmen or ordinary people to be seen.

"Master, this is over! We can't sell anything on the first day!"

"Perhaps the price we set is still too high!"

Xiaodie found Li Changqing and said with a sad face.

Li Changqing shook his finger nonchalantly, "No, no, no, we are missing a crucial point."

"Ah? Which one?" Xiaodie was confused.

"publicity!"

Li Changqing said forcefully.

Xiaodie frowned. "But how can we publicize something like this? We can't just hand out flyers on the street. Will they believe us?"

Li Changqing shook his head: "It's not that troublesome, we just need to ask one person to come forward."

"Who? Who can turn the tide now?"

Xiaodie pondered over it, and suddenly her eyes lit up. "Oh! That's right, if Sister Xueyue were to promote it, it would definitely be very effective. Those men would definitely buy it like crazy!"

Lin Xueyue has accumulated a huge reputation in Hongyue Building. As long as she is willing to promote her products, the men in Ma County will definitely spend money like crazy without saying a word.

"piss off."

However, Li Changqing directly denied such a proposal, "What kind of man would let his woman show her face in public?"

Xiaodie was hit hard and pouted: "Master, then tell me, besides Sister Xueyue, who can turn the tide?"

At this time, Li Changqing patted the wrinkles on his clothes and stood up.

"Besides this old man, is there anyone more suitable?"

"Ah? Master?"

Xiaodie's mouth suddenly opened in shock.

She couldn't understand, could Li Changqing really turn the tide by showing up in this state?
