"That's a lot of money!" Zhu Houzhao lost interest more or less, "The cost of a fish is almost ten cents!"
"Your Highness, don't be anxious, just listen to me." Chen Ziyu comforted Zhu Houzhao, and then continued:
"We can divide cod liver oil into different versions for sale. For example, one version costs ten taels of silver, one version costs five taels of silver, and another version costs ten cents!"
Chen Ziyu patiently told Zhu Houzhao his thoughts.
Zhu Houzhao, who was already very smart, immediately understood what Chen Ziyu meant and said excitedly:
"What you mean is that we launch multiple types of cod liver oil and let others choose the one they can afford. This way, everyone can be taken into consideration and everyone can buy something they are satisfied with!"
"Yes, yes! That's what I mean!"
Chen Ziyu couldn't help but want to applaud Zhu Houzhao. This guy really has amazing understanding!
Zhu Houzhao narrowed his eyes, touched his chin, and shook his head slowly, "No!"
"Why can't it work again!"
"Twelve taels a bottle is too cheap. If you want to sell it, sell it a hundred taels a bottle! Anyway, those officials are rich!"
"..."
Chen Ziyu was speechless! I can only give a thumbs up to Zhu Houzhao!
When it comes to cheating people, it’s you, classmate Xiao Zhu!
After the two of them deliberated for a while, they started naming different types of cod liver oil!
For example, a bottle worth ten taels of silver is called cod liver oil!
The one that costs ten cents a bottle is called Cod Liver Oil Mini!
One hundred taels a bottle is called Cod Liver Oil Plus!
When Zhu Houzhao heard these weird names, his expression looked like he was constipated!
"Old Chen, why do these names you choose feel so weird! What does mini mean? What does plas mean?"
Chen Ziyu chuckled, and the old god said calmly: "Has Your Highness ever read the scriptures?"
Zhu Houzhao sniffed and waved his hands, saying with disdain:
"Who cares about that stuff? I don't believe it. Besides, it's so clumsy that it's so obscure and difficult to understand!"
"That's right!" Chen Ziyu said with a smile: "It's because some things are difficult to understand, so those people will find it mysterious! Only then will they be curious! Only then will they remember it!"
"Our cod liver oil is a new product. If we want people to remember it, we have to give it some unusual names. If His Highness finds it difficult to remember, then you can understand that mini means small bottle and Plus means large bottle!"
"Oh, I understand when you say that! The Plus is a large bottle of cod liver oil, and the Mini is a small bottle of cod liver oil! Lao Chen really has yours!"
"Just average, Ming Dynasty is third!"
After some discussion, the two decided to contribute three thousand taels each as initial start-up capital for the early construction of the cod liver oil workshop.
Zhu Houzhao turned around and entered the palace, then immediately turned back and had a few more banknotes in his hand!
"Now, this is three thousand taels of silver notes, and it is also the only savings I have. I give them all to you!"
Chen Ziyu smiled and stretched out his hand to pick it up, but found that it couldn't be pulled after a long time!
Taking a closer look, Zhu Houzhao looked at the banknote with a painful look on his face, and he was holding on tightly and unwilling to let go!
Chen Ziyu narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a half-smile: "Your Highness, if you don't let go, this banknote will be torn into pieces!"
Only then did Zhu Houzhao let go of his hand. Seeing this, Chen Ziyu quickly grabbed it and kicked him into his arms without even looking at it!
"Old Chen, I trust you so much, you can't cheat me!" Zhu Houzhao reluctantly looked at the banknotes collected by Chen Ziyu!
Chen Ziyu patted his chest and said in a loud voice: "Your Highness, you still can't trust me?"
Seeing Zhu Houzhao's expression of pain, Chen Ziyu immediately put on a warm smile on his face, a strange light flashed in his eyes, and said: "Your Highness, I will not take advantage of you. You and I will share the shares of this workshop 64%." , you are six, and I am four!”
"Why?" Zhu Houzhao stared at Chen Ziyu with a puzzled expression!
"You are my brother-in-law. I married your sister. Let's consider these as filial piety to you! Besides, you provided the place for the workshop and you asked Liu Jin to buy the fish. Naturally, you will have more shares. Some are!”
"Haha, okay, in that case, I would be disrespectful! But you said something wrong. This fish was contributed by Liu Banban. I will pay it back to him when I make money in the future!"
"Your Highness, I am loyal!"
"Don't come here! Come play cards!"
Seeing that the cod liver oil matter had been arranged, Zhu Houzhao was in a good mood, so he shouted to Chen Ziyu to play cards!
Chen Ziyu really didn't have much interest in continuing to play cards, mainly because it was boring to play like this, and if two people played, they could tell at a glance what cards the other party was holding!
Then he rolled his eyes and thought of a trick!
"Your Highness, you can play cards, but it's not interesting to play like this. You have to have some luck!"
"Lottery? What lottery!"
"A round of one hundred taels, I have three thousand taels here!"
After that, he took out the three thousand taels of silver notes that Zhu Houzhao had just received and slapped them on the document with great pride!
Zhu Houzhao's eyes almost popped out!
"You are so shameless, this is my money!"
"But I don't have any money with me, so I can only use these first!"
Chen Ziyu stared at Zhu Houzhao with blinking eyes and continued: "Your Highness, if you have no money, forget it. I am going to go home on duty!"
"This..." Zhu Houzhao hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said immediately: "Play! Write down the money first, I won't renege! Besides, if I win you, you can't lie!"
Chen Ziyu spread his hands and shrugged: "I still have three thousand taels here, how could I cheat!"
After that, Chen Ziyu picked up the cards and simply shuffled them. However, due to the material, the playing cards made by Zhu Houzhao were not as good in ductility and elasticity as the playing cards of later generations!
There are many handsome and fancy shuffling gestures that cannot be realized, but just a few simple moves like this have already shocked Zhu Houzhao!
"Old Chen, I didn't expect you to hide your secrets and not tell me about such a shuffle!"
Chen Ziyu looked at Zhu Houzhao with a straight face, as if he was mentally retarded, "Your Highness, those were bamboo pieces before, how do you wash them?"
Zhu Houzhao smiled, stopped talking, and couldn't wait for Chen Ziyu to finish washing.
