Chapter 403
The next day, a different kind of perfume wafted in Shunchang Fort. The fragrance of various flowers was mixed with rich fragrance, and the whole city became different. The people attracted by the perfume crowded outside crazily. They were all wealthy people in the city.

"How can there be such a fragrant thing, which is more fragrant than the sachet? It's amazing."

"I heard that the perfume can't go away after splashing on my body for a long time. If I give it to my wife, she will be happy. She has worked so hard for the family. If she gets this perfume, she will be very happy!"

Everyone is discussing, but there are still some not men. The ladies who are attracted by this perfume all look ecstatic. When they come to this perfume, they have only heard of things with perfume in the past, but what happened? The price of selling it from abroad is too high and they are often sent to the court when they are hungry. If they are not surprised to see this thing now.

"This thing is so fragrant. If I buy it, my husband will be pleasantly surprised. That vixen at home, hmph, let's see how that little vixen can compete with me!" said a pretty but wrinkled young woman.

"Hey, ma'am, you can't say that. If you bought it, your little vixen must have bought it too, right?" The salesman smiled, but the young woman had a worried expression on her face. Thinking about it, it was indeed the case. I can also think of the little vixen in that family. Didn't he also think of it.

"Hey, ma'am, I have an out-of-print perfume here. When you apply it on your body, it will have a smell that men can't stop. Unfortunately, there is only one bottle. Wouldn't it be great if you bought it, so that your husband-in-law is absolutely obsessed with you, and that little vixen will also be happy." You can’t buy this out-of-print perfume!” said the man, holding a perfume in a very beautiful bottle and saying, “It’s not expensive, only 50 taels of silver.”

"This?" The lady's face immediately showed a pain, and she bought a hundred shi of rice for 50 taels, but when she saw the perfume in her hand, he gritted his teeth, took out the silver, and happily took the perfume.Just left.

"Hey, sir, this trick is really useful." The man smiled, and continued to buy all the perfumes. Perfume is always the most popular commodity. Women can't resist things that can enhance their charm, and men don't live anywhere. At the request of the little vixen who is bothering people, so with a little more tricks, it can be sold for an unexpected high price.

The perfume was dumped throughout the city. It tasted better than the rumors, and the cheaper perfume immediately attracted the mad pursuit of noble ladies. Truckloads of perfume were transported south, and began to be transported to Nanjing, Yangzhou and other places in the south. That place The real rich people of the Ming Dynasty lived in a truly prosperous place.

Perfume is sold from Shandong to Jiangnan, which is a lot of money. Although most of the roads in the middle are attacked by horse thieves, no one dares to rob them with the escort of the Qingzhou army. There are many cars escorting perfume on the road, or they are transported by sea. Hong Kong transported to Nanjing, and then filled with silver and returned from Nanjing.

The smell of silver is about to make Xiao Chuan obsessed. The population is always his biggest pain. This makes Xiao Chuan think of how to have more population. The money is used to equip the army, and the [-] troops under him are all equipped. Heavy armor with an outer layer of iron wool armor and an inner layer of chain mail.

Mi Heng on the side complained, "Young master, I still like the original armor." He said the iron armor, this armor wrapped his whole body, even his neck was guarded, the whole person was like a black iron man.

"The original explosive armor is easy to rust." Ogawa's loss is a trend in the development of armor in the Ming Dynasty. It is not only for local firecrackers, silk wrapped projectiles can reduce damage, and Ming armor is prone to rust when exposed to wind and sun. This kind of dark armor is not easy, and the inner dark armor also uses cold forging technology, with a layer of chain mail inside.

By October, almost [-] troops will all be equipped with this kind of armor. Mi Heng shook his head helplessly. This uncomfortable feeling made him unable to stay in a daze. The armguard wrapped his arm, blocking the neck and even allowing him to breathe. With some trouble, he adjusted it again, and there was another glove.

The unearthed gloves in China were first unearthed from the tombs of the Warring States period. The means can prevent the winter from being difficult to hold the weapon tightly. The price of such an armor is not less than 40 taels. You can buy four of the best Lumi blunderbusses in the Ming Dynasty. If conditions After permission, they will also have a breastplate on their chest.

How many high-quality iron materials are needed for so many iron armors, and how many craftsmen rely on the money transferred from the sea merchants to deal with them. There is still a big gap between such an armored army and a hundred thousand Qing troops, especially those who are not afraid of themselves in the future. With the tactics of an enemy of ten thousand enemies, the only advantages I have are equipment and firearms.

"My lord, the perfume sold to Nanjing City has been sold, but the crown prince will collect one-fifth of the passing tax!" Mi Heng on the side suddenly took out a note and said.

Xiaochuan smiled and said: "Then let's go to sea!"

"But the other party still has to collect money," Mi Heng said, and Xiao Chuan shook his head and said with a smile: "Then we don't have to sell it, and wait for the southern merchants to buy it!"

"Ah? Why do they come to buy?" Mi Heng was a little confused.Xiaochuan smiled and it seemed that they still didn't understand smuggling. With their reputation already established, there must be many people who want to make a profit by buying it. In this way, smuggling activities would happen, especially for perfumes that are so small and still liquid. Time to see how the prince makes his own money.The battle of wits and courage between the smugglers who set up checkpoints and his tax collectors has nothing to do with him.

"This product is really fragrant." The prince took a sip of the perfume intoxicatedly, and said greedily: "Send Jin Yiwei to Shandong, if only he can find a way to make this perfume," he said.

"I'm afraid it will be difficult." The eunuch said, "The spies we sent to Jinyiwei in Shandong have not been found anywhere!"

"The Jinyiwei of my Ming Dynasty has been passed down for more than 200 years." The prince couldn't believe it. He couldn't believe that his Jinyiwei could not beat a spy organization formed by a local warlord for several years.

"Oh, Your Highness, you can't imagine how cunning and cruel that group of people are, and Jin Yiwei was once killed." The eunuch didn't continue when he said this, meaning that when Chongzhen came to power and moved to Wei Zhongxian ten years ago, he was weakened. Two factories and one guard!
The prince sighed, and he realized that it was his father who had been tricked by the Donglin Party, which caused Jinyiwei Dongchang to lose its past glory.He said, "Forget it! Although I can't make more money, I can make the perfumes in Shandong not make any money. In the future, caravans with perfumes will charge heavy taxes!"

After the prince finished speaking, he continued: "Let's go! Continue to visit the nobles in the city today!"

 No update tomorrow, my friend came back from Suzhou to find me to play
