Your Majesty, please beg for mercy. The prince's rebellion was successful.

Lan Yu's joining gave Zhou Zheng more confidence in the future.

Especially now when new recruits are being trained, even though Xiao Guan once bravely championed all three armies, he still has weak legs after all.

With the addition of Lan Yu, on the one hand, Xiao Guan's pressure can be reduced, and on the other hand, the training of new recruits can be accelerated as much as possible.

Therefore, on the second day, Zhou Zheng asked Lan Yu to join the recruit training camp and build new recruits with Xiao Guan.

But within Xiang County, everything has returned to calm.

Xiangjun's business, with the Su family, has not yet returned to its previous state, but it feels like it is booming.

Although the relationship between the Su family, Ji family and Han family makes it difficult for Xiangjun to return to its previous business level in a short period of time, it will not affect its foundation.

The salt making plant and papermaking technology that Zhou Zheng valued most were also progressing in an orderly manner.

Especially salt, while really benefiting the people, it also added a lot of income to Zhou Zheng.

A virtuous cycle has now begun.

According to Lan Xi and Su Xun'er's budget, in three months at most, the profit from salt will reach an astonishing level.

As for papermaking, with people from the Mohist family there, output would not be a problem.

Although it has not yet reached Zhou Zheng's requirements, it is already quite advanced for today's world.

The production of paper has increased significantly, and the price of paper has plummeted.

Moreover, most people in Xiang County can already write on paper normally.

The only thing that makes Zhou Zheng feel a little regretful is that these papers are relatively hard and cannot satisfy Zhou Zheng's idea of ​​​​wiping his buttocks.

However, Meng Sheng assured that the so-called test paper will be produced soon.

At that time, Zhou Zheng will definitely be able to give Zhou Zheng a surprise.

Hearing this, Zhou Zheng's smile was not concealed.

In this world, wiping his butt every time is a very difficult thing for Zhou Zheng.

Use silk to wipe your butt, Zhou Zheng thinks it's a little more luxurious.

Use a bamboo blade to scrape your butthole. Zhou Zheng is a little unable to do it.

"Juzi, I also have a gadget, I hope you can study it during this time."

After hearing Zhou Zheng's mysterious words, Meng Sheng also became interested and quickly came over.

"Your Highness, what good thing is this?!"

Now Meng Sheng's attitude towards Zhou Zheng is becoming more and more respectful.

Whether it was a repeating crossbow, salt, or papermaking, everything was astounding to Meng Sheng.

Although the Mo family can now produce more mature products, it all comes from the young man in front of them.

Therefore, something that can make Zhou Zheng take the initiative to speak must not be simple in Meng Sheng's opinion.

"Soap!"

But when he heard Zhou Zheng say these two words, Meng Sheng was a little confused.

Apparently, this was the first time he heard the word soap.

"May I ask Your Highness the Crown Prince, what is soap? What is it used for!?"

Meng Sheng is considered well-informed, but this is the first time he has heard the word soap in so many years.

Zhou Zheng was not surprised by this.

In Zhou Zheng's world, soap and soap are common household items.

But in Dazhou, the situation is different.

They didn't even listen.

"This thing can be used for washing clothes and taking a bath. Anyway, it can remove oil stains. It is a good thing."

In the Zhou Dynasty, wealthy people washed their hair and bathed before washing rice water.

As for ordinary people, they can only rinse with clean water.

Over time, most people have a faint smell.

Although people in this world have become accustomed to it, Zhou Zheng wants to change this situation.

After all, with the participation of the Mo family, making soap is not a difficult task.

Besides, this is Xiang County, which is Zhou Zheng's base for the future.

Good things must be used by your own people first.

"His Royal Highness, all you need to do is tell me the rough manufacturing method."

I thought Zhou Zheng was going to come up with something amazing, but I didn't expect it was just a gadget for washing.

In the Zhou Dynasty, people mainly used water for bathing or washing clothes.

Therefore, the so-called soap mentioned by Zhou Zheng is of little use in Meng Sheng's opinion.

Maybe it was just a little thing Zhou Zheng tinkered with out of curiosity.

Therefore, Meng Sheng didn't take it too seriously.

Seeing Meng Sheng's nonchalant expression, Zhou Zheng remained calm and handed the soap recipe directly to Meng Sheng.

"When this thing is made, you will know how good it is."

There was a hint of pride in Zhou Zheng's eyes.

Especially beauties like Gong Tan, Su Xun'er and Lan Xi, I'm afraid they won't be able to put it down.

As long as Zhou Zheng is willing, he can make a lot of money using soap.

Of course, these are things to follow.

"Your Highness, are you sure this is the material?!"

Meng Sheng inadvertently looked at the material in the paper, but his pupils involuntarily expanded.

Because the most important material clearly says lard!

You know, although the Great Zhou Dynasty was prosperous, for ordinary people, eating meat was still quite a luxury.

And lard, for most people, is their cooking oil and is quite precious.

The most important thing is that Zhou Zheng clearly said that soap can remove oil and stains!

If lard is used, won't it make the oil stain more obvious? !

"Don't worry, boss, just follow the steps above to make it."

Zhou Zheng didn't have much explanation, but smiled and nodded.

In fact, the process of making soap is not difficult.

In Zhou Zheng's world, soap appeared very early in history.

It is said that a cook accidentally knocked over a can of cooking oil. He was so frightened that before anyone noticed, he sprinkled the oil with plant ashes from the stove, and then saturated the mixture with the oil. The ashes of vegetation were carried out with hands and thrown away.

Looking at his greasy hands, the chef thought: With such dirty hands, I wonder when I can wash them clean?

But when he put his hands in the water to wash them, a miracle happened!

He just rubbed his hands gently a few times, and the greasy hands were quickly washed away, and even the old dirt that was difficult to wash off was washed away.

And this is the prototype of the earliest source of soap materials.

Of course, this involves a lot of chemical knowledge, and Zhou Zheng couldn't explain it clearly for a while.

Anyway, just wait until the stuff comes out and it’s good stuff.

"it is good!"

He frowned slightly, although he couldn't understand, but the giant didn't hesitate much.

Anyway, just follow the method.

As for the effect, we will know when the time comes.

"Prince Prince!"

"It's not good, Prince!"

"The court, someone is here!"

"We have arrived outside Yancheng!"

Just when Zhou Zheng was still thinking about how to popularize soap, Lei Tong's exclamation suddenly came out, directly interrupting Zhou Zheng's thoughts.
