Li Ke and Tian Meng went inside, mainly the shopping mall area at the back. The decoration of the entire shopping mall area was very luxurious. To put it bluntly, this place is not for ordinary people to visit!
To make money, of course, you have to make money from rich people.
The style of the entire room has no soft furnishings, but the floor is made of fine birch wood floors. The reason why birch wood was chosen is because the color of birch wood is milky white, which can enhance the brightness of the entire room.
Datang's windows are all made of special window paper, and the lighting is very poor. During the day, the room is relatively dim. When the weather is not cold, the windows are opened for lighting.
"How long will it take to start replacing these windows?" Li Ke pointed to the windows and asked. Of course he would use glass windows. It didn't matter if they didn't produce them before. Now that they have started to produce glass, with the strength of Yuelai Trading Company, it can be done in a short time. A large number of craftsmen are mobilized to produce these glasses.
"Back to Your Highness, according to the current production progress, it will take about ten days to complete the complete replacement of this inn." Tian Meng immediately gave the time.
One ten days is ten days.
"Wouldn't it affect the production of mercury mirrors?"
"It doesn't matter. Although the production process of glass is very complicated, in fact after the furnace is manufactured, its production is very fast. However, pressing it into glass plates requires skills. At present, our defective product rate is relatively high, but these defective products There is no waste, and it can be installed on some unimportant room windows in our own village." Tian Meng said immediately.
"Yes, let's complete the replacement of all the windows in this one-room inn first. Can the production quantity of mercury mirrors be kept up by then?" Li Ke asked again.
"Yes, the jacquard machine is expected to be completed tomorrow. According to your instructions, different patterns of silk will be woven and opened here." Tian Meng nodded.
If spinning machines and looms have improved the efficiency of the weaving industry by dozens of times, then the Jacquard Jacquard machine has improved the pattern weaving of this era by thousands of times! Because all the simple patterns of high-end silk in this era are manually spun one by one, and the speed is so slow that you can’t imagine.
And complex patterns require embroidery workers to embroider them bit by bit.
The Jacquard Jacquard machine allows Li Ke to complete industrialized pattern weaving! This cost can be so low that all aristocratic families want to cry! Of course, Li Ke wouldn't sell it so cheaply at first, because ordinary people couldn't afford silk with various colors, and those who could afford it were nobles.
Since they are nobles, why sell them so cheaply? Just get yourself a good price.
The key point is that the patterns woven by Li Ke will be exactly the same from piece to piece of cloth, and there will even be entire silk cloths of pure colors.
These pieces of cloth will drive the women of the Tang Dynasty crazy!
"Produce samples first. Different colors of silk will be produced according to the samples. Several other hotels have already tested them?" Li Ke nodded.
"The test has been completed, and all the chefs have arrived. The cooking skills you provided, Your Highness... will definitely become popular throughout Chang'an City." Tian Meng had a look of admiration on his face. He had never eaten such delicious food!
Especially all kinds of stir-fried dishes. I really don’t know how His Highness could think of so many things.
"That's for sure." Li Ke nodded lightly.
"Soap is also produced?" Li Ke looked at Tian Meng.
"Produced. The manufacturing method is not difficult, and we have already produced soap." Tian Meng nodded immediately.
"Soap can stay here. Remember, soap can use different molds. You must give me a grade! Especially the packaging, it must be divided into three, six, and nine grades." Li Ke warned, the reason why soap does not stay here , because soap will be useful in the future and will not be sold on a large scale for the time being.
Soap also involves another technology, which is wool degreasing.
If wool products are not degreased, no one will use them, only the Turks. The Turkic people's yurts and other yurts were all made of wool, because in this era there was no skimming, and the sheep's odor on the sheep was pickled by the Turkic people.
It is no exaggeration to say that if you are in the limelight, you can smell the sheep odor of the Turks from dozens of meters away.
Not to mention ordinary Turks, even the Turkic nobles in Chang'an City had a very strong smell. Even if they changed clothes of the Tang Dynasty and bathed every day, they would not be able to smell it without living in the Tang Dynasty for three to five years. Get rid of that smell.
In this era, you want to marry any Turkic beauty. Oh, there are beauties, but can you bear the smell?
But once the wool is degreased, it means that the wool can be used for high-quality clothing products, which will be no less profitable than silk.
"Yes, Your Highness!" Tian Meng took a deep breath and bowed directly.
"But Your Highness, you said that these places and some reception rooms do not require custom-made tables and chairs... How do you solve this problem?" Tian Meng hesitated and asked.
"I will tell others to deliver these things. You don't need to ask who it is." Li Ke waved his hand.
"Your Highness." Tian Meng agreed directly. There were some things that he was not allowed to know, so Tian Meng didn't ask. He knew very well what his role was.
"When you have almost replaced the doors and windows, His Highness will prepare the rest for you." Li Ke nodded.
"yes!"
"Okay, I'll leave this to you. Remember, this is our model project, so it must be done for me! The interiors of the two inns in the east and west cities will be decorated according to this standard, and the doors and windows will be decorated later. Replace it, but before replacing it, be sure to surround it with red silk cloth so that no one knows what is inside." Li Ke warned.
"Understood, Your Highness!"
"Okay, my highness is going to visit Huiyue Tower and have a meal by the way." Li Ke waved his hand.
"Your Highness, is it so early? Those ladies haven't packed up yet." Tian Meng was stunned for a moment. At this time, the ladies in Huiyue Tower should not be open yet. After all, isn’t the brothel’s business hours only in the evening?
"You know what the heck, my highness is here to appreciate the skills of courtesans. Is that appreciation at night?" Li Ke despised Tian Meng. You people are too vulgar to understand my kindness. Be careful!
"Yes, Your Highness, this subordinate is superficial." Tian Meng hurriedly said, yes, is Your Highness such a superficial person? These days in Chang'an City, His Highness is the most diligent person who goes to Huiyue Tower and other buildings. The problem is, His Highness is also the most honest person!
Never brought back any women! That highlights one's self-discipline!
After leaving Youjian Inn, Li Ke took his guards and headed directly towards Huiyue Tower. Li Ke was riding a horse, so forget about the carriage. His ribs hurt from the bump. However, horses are not allowed to ride in the outer city, and they can only be allowed to walk on the road.
