It took almost a month to make the wine and soap. The wine was not sold freely because wine was a "contraband" during this period. Private winemaking was not allowed, and only designated officials could make wine.
Liquor was mainly used to treat Zhao Kuangyin's illness, so everyone felt that brewing a small amount was not illegal.
But soap is a bit difficult. Most people can't afford it, and rich people don't come to buy it. Finally, Ye Feng came up with an idea and asked Jiang Chuan to sell it in a clothing store, and then he started to get customers.
It took another two months of "promotion" to start making profits. By this time, the Jiangchuan family and Ye Feng's "family wealth" had been spent.
Seeing that Edo couldn't make back the money he spent, he often drank some wine to relieve his boredom. After drinking too much, he would tell Edo about the glorious history of his family. He said that their ancestors had money and treasures.
At this time, Edo would call his sister: "Sister, come here to help. Dad drank too much again and started bragging."
This situation happened many times after Jiang Chuan drank too much, and even the rhubarb in the house next door was not surprised.
After much research, Ye Feng found that many people did not know the purpose and usage of soap, so no one cared about soap.
So Ye Feng made a batch of much smaller soap and took it to the river to give to women washing clothes by the river for free use.
After using it several times, everyone saw the soap's obvious decontamination ability, and word spread, and soon the efficacy and usage of soap were widely publicized.
After a month of publicity, the soap became popular.
Although few people buy soap in the homes of ordinary people, or in small quantities, it has become a popular commodity in the homes of dignitaries.
It has become fashionable among the dignitaries and clans of Yongcheng. If the clothes in your home are not washed with soap, you will be embarrassed to go out and say hello to others without the smell of soap.
So all these clans ordered a large amount of soap from the Jiangchuan family.
As the Jiangchuan family received more and more orders, production also expanded its output. The Jiangchuan family even hired two more people to help with the work of stirring and crushing some ingredients.
Of course, the core formula and other secrets have always been in the hands of Jiangchuan and his wife, and these people will not be allowed to participate or learn about it.
Another good news came from Zhao Kuangyin's family, that is, Jiang Chuan's eldest cousin Zhao Kuangyin felt much better after drinking the medicinal wine, and his waist pain was gone, and Zhao Kuangyin's wife was also pregnant.
In order to thank them, Zhao Kuangyin invited them to his home for dinner.
Zhao Kuangyin said to Ye Feng: "Thank you Brother Ye for your help, my mother-in-law became pregnant. I would like to thank Brother Ye for this." Zhao Kuangyin stood up and gave a salute to Ye Feng.
Ye Feng always felt weird when he heard "I got pregnant with help". He immediately declined and said, "No, no, no, it was the eldest brother who was brave enough to make my sister-in-law pregnant. The younger brother didn't help."
Zhao Kuangyin's eyes turned red and he said: "Brother, please don't be polite. I haven't been able to get your sister-in-law to get pregnant for so many years. It's only because of your strength that I got your sister-in-law to get pregnant."
Ye Feng declined: "No, no, no, my eldest brother is still better."
Zhao Kuangyin said: "No, no, no, my dear brother is awesome."
Next to him, Jiang Chuan tried to persuade him: "You two, please don't give in. You are both powerful."
Zhao Kuangyin turned to Jiang Chuan and said, "Yes, yes, yes, I can make your cousin pregnant, and Jiang Chuan also helped."
Ye Feng had a dark look on his face and said secretly: "Those who don't know the situation will think that the circle is very chaotic. But it's better to be in the ancient times. The ancients were still very innocent at this time, and chrysanthemums were still a kind of flower at this time."
Jiang Chuan took the soap and said, "Brother Ye not only helped my cousin get pregnant, he also helped our family run the soap business."
Jiang Chuan also stood up and saluted Ye Feng and said, "Thank you, brother Ye."
Ye Feng immediately returned the gift and said, "I would also like to thank Brother Jiangchuan for taking me in."
Jiang Chuan patted Ye Feng on the shoulder and said: "Not to mention this, whether to take someone in or not, you also helped us solve the problem of recruiting labor."
At this time, Zhao Kuangyin asked Jiang Chuan, "Cousin, do you still need help? My third uncle's cousin's nephew's brother-in-law's second son wants to help you."
"He has been here several times and has been pestering me for several days. I really can't get rid of him. Do you think it would be convenient for you to arrange it?" Zhao Kuangyin said with some embarrassment.
Jiang Chuan said casually: "Yes, there is. I still need a soap collector. The work is simple, so the salary is not high. I'm afraid he will dislike it."
Zhao Kuangyin blushed in embarrassment and said: "What's wrong with you? He's been idle all day and doesn't know anything. It would be great if you could take him in. Can he still be picky?"
"Then it's settled. I'll tell my third uncle later and ask him to pick up soap from you tomorrow."
Ye Feng thought for a while and said seriously: "By the way, Brother Jiangchuan has a taboo that I want to tell you. If you drop the soap in the shower, don't bend down to pick it up."
Jiang Chuan asked blankly: "Why?"
Ye Feng said seriously: "Taboo. Especially when other people are around."
Jiang Chuan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll note it down for my brother."
As the soap business grows, more and more people place orders, and the order quantity becomes larger and larger.
When I was too busy, I had some recent orders, and Jiangchuan's wife Jia Shuangbai personally led people to deliver the goods. I received the order from Baifu that day, and the delivery date came.
During this period, women could go out, and there were even cars specially designed for women to travel.
Jia Shuangbai delivered the goods to Baifu, asked the workers to unload the goods, and counted the quantities with the Baifu housekeeper.
During the inventory, a group of cars drove into Bai Mansion from outside. Jia Shuangbai asked the workers to move the goods to the side to avoid being scratched by the cars and horses.
The two parties counted correctly. After Jia Shuangbai left, a sinister man walked out of the courtyard. When he saw the housekeeper, he asked: "Whose young lady is this woman?"
The housekeeper returned: "This is from the Jiang Chuan family in Xiubuli, Yong Shui Pavilion."
The man squinted his eyes and stared in the direction where Jia Shuangbai was retreating, without saying anything. Upon seeing this, the housekeeper left, walked away, shook his head and sighed.
This man was Bai Cao, Bai Deng's eldest son, and he was the one who had just entered Bai Mansion's car. When he first entered the house, he accidentally saw Jia Shuangbai, who was so shocked that he couldn't help but have evil thoughts.
Bai Cao thought for a while and called a servant, giving him a few instructions in a low voice. The servant followed the order and turned around. Bai Cao turned around with a lewd smile on his face.
In the evening, Ye Feng came to Jiangchuan's house. Ye Feng walked in and shouted, "His aunt, I'm here."
Zhao Kuangyin's third uncle's cousin's nephew's brother-in-law's second son, who was picking up soap in the courtyard, wondered: "Shouldn't Jiang Chuan's wife be called sister-in-law? How come she has become an aunt?"
Ye Feng looked left and right and found that no one was there.
After asking Zhao Kuangyin's third uncle's cousin's brother-in-law's second son, he found out that Jiangchuan had gone to the countryside to discuss the issue of autumn harvest taxes, and Jia Shuangbai had gone to deliver goods.
Just after asking Jia Shuangbai and the boy to deliver the goods, there was a knock on the door not long after they entered the yard. Ye Feng thought it was Jiang Chuan who was back and didn't take it seriously, so he walked over and opened the door.
When Ye Feng opened the door, he found that he didn't recognize him. There were two people on the other side. One was dressed as a young man of average height, and the other was dressed as a stronger guard with a fierce look on his face.
The boy glanced at Ye Feng and said: "The little lady who just came in is from your family, right? Tell you, you are in good luck. Wait a minute to clean your wife and send it to our uncle's house...ah~"
Before he could finish speaking, Ye Feng's bad temper came up and he punched him. Just as the big man next to him was about to make a move, Ye Feng kicked him away.
The boy was about to announce his identity, but before he could say anything, Ye Feng slapped him with his backhand, and then made a simple request to him: "Get out."
After saying that, he returned to the courtyard and closed the door. Ye Feng said to himself: "What the hell."
Not long after Jiang Chuan came back from the countryside, he saw Ye Feng and asked: "Brother, how is the yield of your fields this year?"
Ye Feng said with some disappointment: "It's not very good, I'll barely have enough to eat next year."
Jiang Chuan said casually: "That's fine, after all, you have a big belly."
In fact, Ye Feng said that it was barely enough to eat because the output of fifty acres of land would be enough to eat next year, while Jiang Chuan thought that he would need to add the two buckets a day he earned from working in Yizhuang to barely have enough to eat.
Jiangchuan would be surprised if he knew the true yield in Ye Fengtian.
Jiang Chuan felt that it was inappropriate to say this, and immediately said: "The King of Qin prayed for a good day and ordered the harvest to start in six days."
Ye Feng calculated that the days were almost 140 to 50 days, and it was indeed almost the time for the beans to mature.
At this moment, there was another knock on the door, mixed with chaotic shouts.
Jiang Chuan stood up and went to open the door, but Ye Feng followed him out of fear that something might happen.
As soon as Jiangchuan opened the door, he saw four big men outside shouting at Jiangchuan: "You just hit someone, right? Come with us to the countryside."
When Ye Feng saw that it was Wang Shuang and the four of them, Ye Feng suddenly became energetic and laughed involuntarily.
Ye Feng took a step forward and said with a smile: "I, eh, eh, I beat, I beat. Are you going to arrest me again?"
When Wang Shuang and the four of them saw it was Ye Feng, they immediately stood on the spot.
Ye Feng poked Wang Shuang with his finger, and Wang Shuang reacted.
Wang Shuang stuttered and said: "You, you are here~ We didn't know it was you~ No, it's okay. Let's leave now." Wang Shuang's voice was trembling, and after speaking, he turned around and left.
Ye Feng immediately grabbed Wang Shuang and said, "Hey, don't. Wait, don't leave."
Wang Shuang almost cried when he heard Ye Feng's shouts. Everyone else had settled down, so why are you not done yet?
Jiang Chuan asked in surprise: "Brother Ye, how do you know people from Youyou?"
Ye Feng said with a smile: "We did business together before. Didn't I make a lot of money last time? It all depends on these people."
Jiang Chuan groaned and thought: "No wonder it's easy to make money."
Wang Shuang thought to himself: "Oh, what, do you know what kind of business this guy is doing?"
Wang Shuang wanted to leave but didn't dare to leave at this time and didn't know what to do.
Ye Feng said to Jiang Chuan: "Brother Jiang, you go back first. I'll do some business with them and come back. You don't have to wait for me to eat. I'm invited."
Wang Shuang thought to himself: "Someone invited me, that's right."
Wang Ming next to him answered: "Yes, we were ordered to invite him."
Wang Shuang looked helpless: "You~" You didn't say anything for a long time. He had no way to deal with this "silly" brother.
Although Jiang Chuan felt strange, seeing that the other people seemed to be afraid of Ye Feng, he felt that Ye Feng would not be in danger, so he gave Ye Feng a few words and went back.
Ye Feng smiled and said to Wang Shuang: "Who will give me money this time? No, who will treat me this time?"
Wang Ming said on the side: "I can't tell. I was scolded last time. Brother, can you stop guessing this time? Your guess is so accurate. Mr. Bai didn't believe that we didn't tell him last time."
name."
"No matter what we say this time, we can't let you guess that it was Master Bai who asked us to arrest you."
