Your Majesty, she doesn't want to flip the brand

With Ye Ningxuan, the queen, advertising, the first batch of lipstick Zhong Qingyi produced sold out quickly.In order to avoid the loss of orders for .F, Zhong Qingyi came up with a pre-sale model, collecting a 30.00% deposit in advance, and when the mouth cream is produced, it will be sold to those who have already booked.

The noble girls are all compared with each other, and the group of people with the fastest news already have something in their hands.The rest of the people were naturally not to be outdone, and a few dozen taels of silver was a matter of sprinkling water for them, so they paid the money directly to make an appointment without even thinking about it.Among them, those prostitutes of aristocratic families directly ordered a set of lip service, and gave out hundreds of taels of silver when they had nothing.

"I didn't expect lip fat to be so popular." After seeing the amount on the account book, Ye Ningxuan took some time to digest it.

Zhong Qingyi's price for each box of lip balm is 50 taels of silver, of which 30 taels of silver are spent on the packaging of the lip balm, excluding the loss of raw materials and manpower, she can make a net profit of 20 taels of silver per box of lip balm.Even if you pay three-tenths of the tax, you can get [-] taels of income per box of lip balm.

"There are indeed a lot of dignitaries in the capital, and there are a lot of people who follow their example, not only those noble girls, but even..." Zhong Qingyi couldn't help but click his tongue, "The girls in the brothel have also started ordering from me, It is estimated that it will take more than a month before it can be sold in the store."

"You charged nearly 5 taels of silver just for the deposit, and the corresponding sales should be about [-] boxes." Ye Ningxuan made a simple calculation in her heart, "In this case, most of the noble girls and officials in the capital Ladies, almost everyone has a share?"

Zhong Qingyi thought for a while, "This is not necessarily the case. I have created a total of ten colors, and many people who are not short of money have a whole set in one go."

"Recently, you should pay attention to your safety. It is too eye-catching for so much money to be in your hands. It is inevitable that someone will be tempted." Ye Ningxuan said, "You should keep the money for yourself first, and wait until the things are all sent out, and then pay attention to it." Give me the dividend."

"Alright." Zhong Qingyi closed the account book, "Sister, Your Majesty is not planning to go to the Summer Resort this year, is he?"

Ye Ningxuan nodded, "This year's summer is cooler than last year's. Your Majesty thinks you can make a living in the palace."

"If Your Majesty doesn't plan to go to the Summer Resort, the amount of ice used in the capital will increase a lot. Sister, I have an idea, why don't we sell ice cubes!" Zhong Qingyi said, "If there is demand, there will be a market."

"You have a good idea, but where is the ice?" Ye Ningxuan asked.

"It's simple, just use saltpeter to make ice." Zhong Qingyi said, although chemistry is not her main direction, but she has also minored in it. She can also do simple chemical reactions like making ice with saltpeter.

Ye Ningxuan shook her head with a smile, "In fact, I have already discussed this issue with His Majesty. The cost of making ice with saltpeter is too high, and rich families have the habit of storing ice cubes. If you save some, it will be enough to last a summer."

"Okay..." Zhong Qingyi was a little frustrated after hearing Ye Ningxuan's words, but she quickly thought of other ideas.In summer, you will sweat easily. If you sweat, you need to take a bath. If you take a bath, you need to use cleaning products!

Zhong Qingyi wants to tinker with the soap. As for the quality, it must be better than the current saponins and soap, and the price must be lower.

After having a plan in mind, Zhong Qingyi didn't waste any time, and quickly ended the conversation with Ye Ningxuan, and returned to her palace to pick out a men's outfit to change into. She was going to actually investigate the production methods of saponins and soap.

Zhong Qingyi's idea is very good, but it is impossible to develop soap immediately.Although soap is simple and easy to make, if you want to produce it in large quantities at low cost, it will take at least three or four months.

When Zhong Qingyi started making soap, several forces in the capital were already eyeing her.Zhong Qingyi earned tens of thousands of taels of silver from the balm in front of her, and now she has earned tens of thousands of taels of silver from her empty gloves. The big bosses in the business field have basically noticed Zhong Qingyi.

Among them, the relatively small ones lost their minds when they found out that Zhong Qingyi had contacts with important figures in the palace.The rest are a few old business families and merchants backed by the mountains. They have already sent people to follow Zhong Qingyi and dig to the bottom to find out her details.

"Hou Zhongyi is at the back?" After looking at the investigation results on the desk, the man sitting on the chair had a stinky expression on his face, "No wonder you can send things to the harem, there really is a backer."

"Master, should we withdraw the person who was following us?" asked the subordinate standing aside.

"No, it's just the Marquis of Zhongyi, and he's not someone to be offended by." The man tapped his finger on the table, "Have you found out the relationship between that person surnamed Jin and Marquis of Zhongyi?"

The subordinate shook his head, "The subordinate found out that the young master of Zhongyihou's family often visits the shop of the other party, and the subordinate speculates that he should invest money in it, and then draw a part of Jin Zhong's share."

"Go and hire a few people, pick a time to smash Jin Zhong's shop, and then see the reaction of Hou Zhongyi." The man said, "If Hou Zhongyi doesn't stand up for Jin Zhong, then continue to smash it."

"Yes." The subordinate hesitated for a while, and tentatively said, "Master, every time when Jin Zhong is about to go home, our people will be lost, do you think the other party has noticed it? "

"Heh, I'm not the only one who is eyeing Jin Zhong. What's the use of him even if he finds out, can he still find me?" The man is not worried about being exposed at all, "Remember to find a reliable person to do it, and put him on the spot." After the store was smashed, all the money inside was stolen, and the scene was disguised as a burglary, as for the stolen goods, you can deal with them."

"Okay, don't worry, master, this subordinate will definitely handle the matter beautifully." The subordinate's eyes lit up, and if he saw it, it might be his own thing!

Zhong Qingyi didn't know that her shop was being targeted at this time. Although she was busy with business now, she didn't go out of the palace every day.When she received the news that her shop had been smashed, she was still nestling comfortably in the palace reading the book she had just bought.

"The shop was smashed? When did it happen? How much was the total loss? Have you reported it?" The smile on Zhong Qingyi's face disappeared instantly.

"Ma'am, all the cash in the shop has been robbed, and all the finished goods have been smashed on the ground, and the loss is about 2000 taels of silver." The maid replied in a low voice, worried that Zhong Qingyi would take revenge on herself.

"It's unreasonable!" Zhong Qingyi threw the book on the table directly, "There is such a person under the feet of the emperor! Go and tell Jing Zhaoyi, we must find him!"

Zhong Qingyi was really angry, she only opened five shops in the capital, each of which invested a lot of money!To smash her shop is to smash her sweetheart!

"Is Your Majesty facing court?" After getting angry, Zhong Qingyi immediately thought of his biggest backer. This is the ancient times where there is no surveillance. If you want to catch fugitives, it will definitely cost manpower and material resources.

"At this time, His Majesty should already be handling government affairs in the imperial study," said the maid.

"Okay, help me get ready, I'm going to see His Majesty!" This is a shop that I opened together with Zhou Xingzhi, and my loss is Zhou Xingzhi's loss, and His Majesty will definitely not stand idly by.

Sure enough, after hearing Zhong Qingyi's accusation, the smile on Zhou Xingzhi's face also faded a lot, "There are still such things under my nose. It seems that there are really many lawless people."

Zhou Xingzhi closed the memorial in his hand, "It just so happens that the Shaoqing of Dali Temple has already dealt with Xu Zhi's matter, and I will assign the case to him in a while."

"Your Majesty, has Xu Zhi's matter come to fruition? How did the Wan family handle it?" Zhou Xingzhi's words reminded Zhong Qingyi of what happened in Hangzhou Mansion. If it wasn't for Xu Zhi's matter, she wouldn't have You will discover your own incompetence.

"The result of the investigation came out. It was a collateral branch of the Wan family who intervened in the events of the year. Because the incident was extremely bad, he was sentenced to be executed in autumn and all his property was confiscated." Zhou Xingzhi paused, "What Wang Tongzhi said is a crime of corruption. And dereliction of duty, all official positions will be removed, and the whole family will be exiled for three thousand miles."

Zhong Qingyi nodded, waiting for Zhou Xingzhi to continue speaking, she still wanted to hear about Lu Tongsheng's fate.

"As for Lu Tongsheng, I didn't find any clear evidence, but after he was sentenced to a major sentence, he confessed to the incident ten years ago, and he was convicted of bribery, so he was executed on the spot." Zhou Xingzhi said, "such a The result was unsatisfactory, but barely acceptable."

"Then Your Majesty, if the Shaoqing of Dali Temple is in charge of this case, will he know my identity?" Zhong Qingyi asked.

"Simple, didn't you use the pseudonym Jin Zhong? I'll send you a personal guard at that time, and you can ask him to use this name to see Shaoqing of Dali Temple." Zhou Xingzhi said, "Shaoqing of Dali Temple He's a smart man, even if he sees something wrong, he won't expose you."

Zhong Qingyi nodded half-understood, she didn't need to worry about who the Shaoqing of Dali Temple belonged to, she just had to follow Zhou Xingzhi's arrangement.

After Zhong Qingyi left, Zhou Xingzhi reopened the previous memorial.This was sent by the Shaoqing of Dali Temple. In addition to the content just now, there are a lot of lists written on it. These are the names of officials related to corruption and bribery that were interrogated by the Shaoqing of Dali Temple.

Zhou Xingzhi looked at this memorial in deliberation. The Shaoqing of Dali Temple was also promoted by Prince Jia. Why did he sort out this list for himself.Do you want to set a trap for yourself to get into?Or surrender in disguise?

After reading the name several times, Zhou Xingzhi took out a clean piece of paper, copied the names and official positions written on it one by one, and finally stamped his personal seal on it.

"Wei Zhong, send an absolutely reliable personal guard to deliver this list to Jiang Ze, the chief minister of Zhejiang." Zhou Xingzhi said, "give it to him personally, and after he memorizes the list, destroy it on the spot .”

"Yes, the servant will arrange it immediately." Wei Zhong replied with his head down.

The author has something to say: rub your hands, I am so hardworking!
