Chapter 713
The currency of the Qin Empire is still worthwhile.
Basically, one thousand coins can be exchanged for one tael of silver.
The production cost of a piece of soap is one tael of silver, and it will be five times the profit when sold. Each piece of soap can bring a net profit of four taels of silver. Not only is Li Chen very satisfied, but even the members of the Liu family are extremely surprised.
They have been doing business all their lives, but no business can make such a big profit.
The key is that the demand for soap is in short supply in the market and there is no need to worry about selling.
As long as it is produced, it will be sold out immediately.
What is the difference between this and finding a mountain of gold?
Li Chen put down the teacup and said, "It's very good. Keep it going, but don't increase the output anymore. After the masters of the Liu family are proficient, they will start to develop new processes, ordinary and cheaper soap."
Liu Sichun's eyes lit up and he said, "What is your Highness meant that things are precious because they are rare?"
Li Chen said with a smile: "No matter how good things are, they will not be strange once they are flooded. The price of five taels of silver is not cheap. Moreover, it is not easy to consume this thing. It is common to use it in one or two months. How many people in Beijing can afford it? This market is so big, and if you supply enough, the price will be reduced."
"You have never seen this thing before. It is fresh. Besides, the production capacity is insufficient, so there is a shortage of supply. Since this is the case, you should keep this situation so that the rich people in the capital feel that buying it is a skill, and using it is a face."
"Those wealthy women will not compare to whom the silk is better and the material is smoother, but will compare to whom the soap is more delicate and the fragrance is better. Then this business will be completely stable."
He pointed to the table with his fingers, and Li Chen said: "What really comes in volume is those low-priced soaps, which ordinary people can afford, making soaps an indispensable item for every family. In this way, no one can do without food, rice, oil and salt. This is the foundation for the Liu family to settle down."
After a business process, the Liu family admired it.
Liu Sichun sighed: "The young woman has received education."
"The young women will develop other scented soaps, which are more refined and high-end, so that they can occupy the market for rich people. As for ordinary people, they focus on efficacy and benefits, small profits but quick turnover, and a two-pronged approach will inevitably be popular."
Li Chen chuckled and said, "I like to talk to smart people, and I can see through it at a glance."
Liu Sichun, who was happy and excited, was about to thank him, but at the door of the backyard, Liu Sida came over with a serious expression.
Liu Sida quietly came to Liu Sichun and whispered a few words, but Liu Sichun's expression changed.
Li Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "Is there anything wrong?"
Liu Sichun immediately told the story of Lan Yuexuan's semi-colonies and Zhao Tailai coming to find fault.
Li Chen frowned and said impatiently: "It's really a ghost, you can deal with it."
Liu Sida was a little reluctant to speak but stopped.
Li Chen glared at him and said, "What are you afraid of? I will go over and watch him. How can he be a playboy?"
Liu Sida and Liu Sichun were overjoyed.
"We'll go there without further ado."
Liu Sichun turned his head and said to Liu Sida, then asked Li Chen: "Do you want to go together?"
