Everyone present went crazy.
Whether it is the young master, the rich lady, or the fans of Fengming Tower, they are already fighting for their scalps.
Soon, a lot of lipsticks and lipsticks that Liu Zheng brought this time were all sold out. Not only that, but they are all sold at high prices!
In just half an hour, everything was sold out!
At this time, Zheng Yueru only had two thousand taels of silver left in front of her.
"this……"
"Brother Liu..."
Zheng Yueru still didn't react now, still immersed in endless shock.
And Liu Zheng took a deep breath.
He got these things for a total cost of only fifty taels!
After processing this, it was sold directly for two thousand taels! According to his contract with the Zheng family, if he takes 80%, it will be one thousand six hundred taels, and the Zheng family will get 400 taels!
What a huge profit!
Sure enough, the cosmetics industry and luxury goods industry in later generations were huge profits, and it was the same in ancient times!
"see it?"
Liu Zheng laughed loudly: "This is advertising, spreading it widely. In other words, no matter what method you use, you must let more people know the efficacy and effectiveness of our products. Do you understand?"
Although Zheng Yueru had never seen these methods before, but being taught this by Liu Zheng tonight, it was like the clouds were opening and the sun was shining brightly.
She is a business wizard, and Liu Zheng has already achieved this. If she still doesn't understand something, her life will be in vain.
"Brother Liu means..."
Zheng Yueru's eyes burned: "This is widely advertised, and it must be calculated as a cost! Count it in, and then generate greater profits..."
Liu Zheng was stunned for a moment.
Unexpectedly, Zheng Yueru had such a high level of understanding. After this incident, he actually realized the concept of advertising costs, but at this level, to be honest, Liu Zheng couldn't calculate it... After all, he was not an advertiser in his previous life.
He just provides an idea.
"Yue Ru understands, understands! No one has tried our wine, so we will find ways to let them taste it! Even if we don't need silver coins, we must let the wine smell fragrant first! These are all advertising costs, and we only need to use these If the cost is included in the profit, there will be no deficit!"
Zheng Yueru stood up in surprise and bowed deeply towards Liu Zheng: "Brother Liu is so talented, Yueru is not as good as him!"
Liu Zheng smiled bitterly, in this era, you are already a monster.
Suddenly, he was looking forward to it.
How far can this Zheng Yueru grow under her own guidance? At least for now, it seems that the cooperation between the Zheng family and myself is still very good, so there is no need to be too vigilant for the time being. Especially after the promulgation of his "Natural Succession Law", Zheng Yueru's status in the Zheng family has improved too much.
Liu Zheng admired Zheng Yueru.
As long as she can control the Zheng family, Liu Zheng doesn't mind letting the Zheng family continue to exist in Yinzhou.
"Brother Liu, Manqing's side..."
Zheng Yueru suddenly looked at Liu Zheng ambiguously, half smiling.
"I'll take my leave now and come back another day!"
Liu Zheng got a headache when he heard this and ran away in a hurry.
"Since ancient times, beauties have had a bad life, and it's people like Brother Liu who have caused the disaster!"
Zheng Yueru looked at Liu Zheng's back, shook her head and sighed.
"Is this the ancient thorn water?"
Zheng Yueru took out a ceramic jar but couldn't tell what was inside.
But when she opened the lid, she was deeply attracted by the smell inside.
"this……"
She remembered Liu Zheng's instructions. How many hours would it take for the fragrance to last for a day? She didn't believe it at first, but at this time, she couldn't help but took the things Liu Zheng left and ran to take a bath.
Soap, lip balm, lipstick, perfume...
These things shocked Zheng Yueru one after another.
Who is this Mr. Liu?
How could he have so many things?
Needless to say, ice cream can be used in most places with a climate like Liangzhou, or in other words, in most places across the country.
And this soap is even more amazing.
People in this era still use pig pancreas to bathe. The smell after bathing is simply unbearable...
But at this time.
It actually smells like rose?
Then, there's the perfume.
She was looking forward to it.
When these things begin to be mass-produced, how much money will be poured into the Zheng family?
…
really.
Before Liu Zheng returned to the county houfu, two carriages had already stopped at the door.
Today's battle has become a bit big, and the other two prominent families that still exist really can't sit still. Sure enough, as soon as Liu Zheng entered the door, he saw his father Liu Dahao waiting for guests.
The guests were naturally Cao Zhen from the Cao family and Wang Zengming from the Wang family.
"The master is back!"
"Young Master's amazing song today will surely spread throughout Liangzhou, no, the entire dynasty!"
The two old men no longer dared to underestimate the county prince, and they all stood up and clasped their fists in compliments.
"The second old lady deserves a prize!"
Liu Zheng quickly smiled modestly.
"My son, the ice cream is really making a lot of noise today..." Liu Dahao signaled with his eyes that these two rich men came with a lot of gifts this time and placed them next to them.
The meaning is self-evident.
Can I get a share of the cream business?
Who wouldn’t be jealous after watching the Zheng family get rich?
After the Chen family was confiscated, these two prominent families have become much more honest. In name, the family's private soldiers were dismissed on the spot, but in fact they were sent to the county marquis.
Now, it is estimated that each noble family only has at most 500 servants left!
If you obey, you will naturally be given sweets!
Liu Zheng had known that something like this would happen, and had already dealt with it. He smiled and said: "Don't be impatient, I will take care of this matter myself. The business of cream, soap, and ancient water is really suitable for the Zheng family..." "
The expressions of the two rich men suddenly changed.
If it had been given before, both of them would have been angry.
"but……"
Liu Zheng chuckled and said: "Although the Zheng family has the largest number of businesses and the widest distribution, they are not as good as the Cao family in terms of fortifications!"
When Cao Zhen heard this, he laughed proudly: "That's natural!"
In other words, the Zheng family is better at business operations, but in terms of industry and large-scale manufacturing, the Cao family is the leader. For example, the Cao family is involved in furniture, building materials, iron farm tools, and mining, and has even reached a monopoly status.
The Cao family supplies the iron ore used in Liu Zheng's Shengwu Workshop for casting iron.
"And the Wang family is good at textiles, clothing, and utensils!"
Wang Zengming nodded.
Liu Zheng continued to smile and said: "Therefore, leaving those things to the Zheng family is the only choice. Don't have any grudges between us!"
The two of them heard that what Liu Zheng said made sense. Although they were unwilling to accept it, they could only nod in agreement.
"Don't worry, second brother. Soon, I will ask for your help without you needing to look for me!"
Liu Zheng said sincerely.
What else could the two of them say, and they could only retire one after another.
Although the production process of this cream, lipstick, soap and perfume has been developed. However, there are still several problems encountered in order to achieve mass production. The first thing to bear the brunt is the lack of manpower!
Liu Zheng has only traveled through time for a month, which is too short a time.
He also needs to teach them step by step how to do it. At present, the number of craftsmen in this divine workshop has reached 500, but it is still not enough! Just one hundred people are needed to make iron and steel.
Wine making is Liu Zheng's main source of income. Several different kinds of wine require different workshops, which requires a full 300 of his people!
And the other two people?
You need people to pull iron ore, you need people to buy roses, you need people to buy all kinds of materials.
"Here, hurry up and get a few more people!"
"Master Wei, we are too busy!"
"Damn it, come here to help first!"
When I came to Shen Gongfang again the next day, the scene was still in chaos. Seeing that Wei Tiezhu was very busy, Liu Zheng couldn't help but shook his head.
As your stall grows, you must learn how to manage it.
How did Wei Tiezhu know this?
"Young master, are you here? I'll be finished here soon!"
Seeing Liu Zheng coming, Wei Tiezhu quickly finished his work and ran over wiping the sweat from his head.
Liu Zheng said: "Iron pillars, if a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools. There are five hundred craftsmen in the Shen Workshop, regardless of class or rank. This will not work."
"ah?"
Wei Tiezhu looked depressed and scratched his head.
He hasn't even studied for a few years. What's the use of telling him this?
Liu Zheng shook his head: "Let me ask you, every workshop has a foreman, right?"
Wei Tiezhu nodded quickly.
This is the most basic.
Liu Zheng said: "Okay, you call all the foremen here. In addition, for those who are purchasing and transporting outside, also call one or two who you think can take the lead!"
Wei Tiezhu went to do it immediately.
Soon, these disgraced craftsmen all gathered in front of Liu Zheng.
Liu Zheng was very busy himself and had no intention of talking nonsense to them. He immediately said: "From today on, Shen Gongfang will activate the responsibility management system!"
There was a lot of noise from the crowd.
Accountability?
What the hell is this?
Wei Tiezhu also looked confused.
Liu Zheng explained: "Each workshop will have a foreman, and the monthly salary will be doubled!"
The people present were overjoyed. They were originally foremen, but their monthly salary was the same as that of ordinary craftsmen, so they did not pay much attention to management. This was the biggest reason for production chaos.
"but……"
Liu Zheng's eyes turned cold: "If you get double the money, you must take responsibility! Counselor Wei will issue production tasks every day. If you can't complete them, you will punish the foreman first! If the quality exceeds the quota, you will be rewarded!"
Everyone said that they would definitely complete the task.
"Set up a separate transportation department and purchasing department, with the same remuneration and responsibilities as the foreman!"
Soon, Liu Zheng formulated a plan.
As the number of craftsmen increases, institutionalized management is necessary.
Each department has a foreman and two deputy foremans, with increasing responsibilities and benefits. This greatly stimulated the management enthusiasm of these people and gave them excessive rewards.
Departments have clear division of labor and clear responsibilities.
And gathering in the Shengongfang compound every morning, Wei Tiezhu issued daily production tasks, and then started working and resting at the same time.
At this moment, the management of Shen Gongfang instantly became clear.
There is no such chaotic scene as before.
"Where is Liang Erfu?"
After Liu Zheng finished his work here, he returned to the county houfu.
Liang Erfu, counselor of the Ministry of Agriculture, ran out immediately.
When Liu Zheng saw him making tea for his father, he sneered: "You are quite leisurely."
Liang Erfu smiled bitterly and said: "Sir, the autumn work is over. I, my subordinates, are mostly helping with paperwork."
"Go out for a walk with me."
Liu Zheng mounted the road.
The first snow has fallen.
After arranging other things, Liu Zheng's most important thing is actually farming.
In ancient times, food and clothing were the most important thing!
However, this problem is particularly prominent in Yinzhou!
