The three wealthy businessmen were quite moved.
They also knew that it would be a good thing if the mountain rats could make food.
But the main problem is that they do not have the ability and energy to promote this matter.
It requires a lot of manpower and material resources to promote, and the money required is of course thousands of dollars, or even more.
Under normal circumstances, Fengzhou Yamen must take the lead in the organization.
But Chen Ze skipped the Yamen directly for this matter.
The yamen is now the equivalent of a troublemaker, so it would be nice if it doesn't cause trouble.
The spies originally assigned to Fengzhou were specially transferred by Chen Ze to follow up and coordinate and play a supervisory role.
This matter is not only for the victims, but also for future development.
It's not that they don't want to transport grain from Jiangzhou for storage, but the Chu imperial court has already blocked grain and prevents it from being transported to the eight southern states.
The group of disaster victims in Lanzhou were most likely forced to come to Qingzhou by the Chu imperial court.
If the Zhennan Palace provides disaster relief, the food reserves of the eight southern states will be in danger.
What's more, the disaster also affected eight southern states.
If we don't provide disaster relief, we will first attack the eight southern states when the victims are in chaos. Even if we put aside the rumors and count the 100,000 victims in Lanzhou, a lot of troops will definitely be deployed to suppress the unrest.
In short, the victims of the Lanzhou disaster were a move by the imperial court.
In fact, Chen Ze himself is also a chess piece of the palace.
Chen Ze knew very well that the palace was able to hand over Qingzhou to him, not because the palace liked him.
At least Dad definitely disagrees.
The real key factor was Lu Qingyun.
Uncle Liu knew Lu Qingyun's abilities, and he definitely wanted to ask Lu Qingyun to become a staff member of the royal palace and govern the eight southern states.
It's just Lu Qingyun who doesn't give face.
Here comes the problem.
Why does the palace have this intention but not properly govern the eight southern states?
First, there are no serious talents in government affairs in the palace.
Uncle Liu is not smart, but he is not as good as Lu Qingyun, who can manage Lanxi County in an orderly manner and be loved by the people.
Not to mention Uncle Liu, Chen Ze couldn't do it either.
Cheap daddy?
That is a pure fool.
Asking him to govern is equivalent to asking a reckless man to break up the fight.
Second, Wangfu is the largest landowner in the eight southern states.
Of course, Zhennan Palace represents not only Chen Wuping, the cheap dad, but an entire interest group.
Once you want to govern, you will inevitably damage the fundamental interests of the palace and lose its own privileges.
These two points are the main factors.
Only Lu Qingyun stood up as the villain and dared to offend the powerful.
Chen Ze had already guessed what Uncle Liu Sanshu had planned.
The Zhongzhou Lu family behind Lu Qingyun is Lu Qingyun's talisman, and Uncle Liu can use this as an excuse.
It's not that I don't want to mess with him. He's a member of the Lu family, so how can he do anything he wants?
Just bear with it.
Therefore, Uncle Liu didn't persuade his father to delegate power because he thought highly of himself. What he valued was Lu Qingyun.
However, what Uncle Liu Sanshu couldn't count was his nephew. The dignified prince of Zhennan Palace was a time traveler, and in some aspects his consciousness was much higher than that of Lu Qingyun.
In short, Chen Ze treated the three benevolent businessmen from Fengzhou with courtesy.
I hope these three people can take charge of this matter well after they return.
Having just copied the property of He Qi and the Qingzhou Gang, Chen Ze handed over the silver to the three of them before he could warm up.
Funds will be sent to Fengzhou one after another in the future. Don’t be afraid of spending money, just use it wisely.
The three people responded quickly, saying that they would fulfill their mission, and then returned to Fengzhou to make arrangements.
The main reason was that Chen Ze couldn't get away and had too many things to deal with, otherwise he would have taken Li Yuankang to Fengzhou to make arrangements.
After explaining this matter, it can be regarded as an increase of hope.
If the mountain rats could be used as food, it would be possible to resettle victims of the Lanzhou disaster.
When we rushed back to Qinshantang, Dr. He's alcohol had been refined, and it was all packed in fine porcelain.
I took the alcohol and went back to Lu's house to play with perfume.
Li Yuankang originally wanted to help, but Chen Ze kicked him out of the kitchen.
This is a good time to get closer to the big girl. Why are you coming in to join in the fun?
Stay wherever it's cool.
In the kitchen, Chen Ze and the eldest girl were staring at the big steamer. The weather was already quite hot, but the door was still closed in the kitchen. The eldest girl was already sweating dripping from the heat, and her face was quite rosy.
"Uncle, it's a little hot!"
"Just heat." Chen Ze said hurriedly: "High temperature sterilizes, and more sweating is good for the body."
Chen Ze wiped his sweat while adding more heat.
What is used now is the condensation method, which is also one of the ancient methods.
There is also a new pot on top of the steamer. Inside the steamer is the raw material in the sachet that is steamed with water. The water is drained through the tube, and what is steamed out is the raw perfume.
There are many directions in the later stage, such as increasing the efficacy of medicine, developing into Fengyoujing, toilet water, etc., or continuing to develop into aromatherapy products.
Nowadays, it can be regarded as aromatherapy and steaming, but it can detoxify, nourish the skin, and enhance the body’s immunity.
It’s just that the girl is wearing a little too much, which is not conducive to perspiration.
After two or three days of hard work, the perfume was finalized.
Either alcohol extraction or condensation method can make perfume, the difference is the intensity and duration of the fragrance.
The perfume extracted from alcohol is thicker and lasts longer, but the amount is very small. It is suitable for high-end perfumes and can be customized. You can find a sachet shop to mix plant spices.
The perfume made by the condensation method is light and lasts for a short time, but the quantity is large, so it can be mass-produced, with small profits but quick turnover.
But, who will take care of the perfume business?
Qin Boyang was already too busy, so only Lu Zhiping was left.
Although this future old father-in-law does not have as many ideas as Qin Boyang, his ability to manage business is not bad. The most important thing is that he is diligent and has a wide network of contacts.
So Chen Ze discussed with Lu Zhiping about opening a new store to sell perfume.
The technology has now been conquered, so in addition to opening new stores and workshops, we also have to negotiate with suppliers.
Flower vendors and sachet shops can be responsible for the supply of raw materials, so there is no need to recruit people to pick them yourself, which is laborious and laborious.
Leave all these matters to Lu Zhiping to deal with and see if Lu Zhiping can negotiate.
The main purpose is to exercise personal business management capabilities and crisis response capabilities.
Chen Ze would only intervene if there was a big crisis that couldn't be solved at the moment.
This can maximize personal talents and subjective initiative.
Of course, if you really don’t have the ability, just replace it with someone else who can do it.
Ningyu officially entered the pre-sale mode after brewing for a long time.
If Lu Zhiping hadn't told him about this, Chen Ze wouldn't even know about it.
The pre-sale location is not Boyang Bookstore, but a newly opened store called Ningyuxuan.
"Is business good?" Chen Ze asked Lu Zhiping hurriedly.
Lu Zhiping said hurriedly: "I didn't go and take a look. I just heard that there were people outside Ningyu Pavilion, and even the carriages were blocked and couldn't get through."
