Since the pre-sale is scheduled for 6 o'clock in the morning, that is, around nine o'clock.
Ning Wuyang did not rush to the crowded perfume shop, but first went to the small island in the middle of the lake. While having breakfast, he signed a contract with Shen Youchu to supply ice cubes.
Last night, I received the contract letter and thirty sets of stills from Zhou Jingxian, as well as nearly a thousand kilograms of saltpeter.
A contract to supply ice is also on the agenda.
After Shen Youchu read the contents of the contract, he exclaimed: "Is it true that a pound of pure ice only costs a hundred cents?"
One tael of silver and one thousand coins.
Ten pounds of pure ice costs one tael of silver.
"Juxiang, is this cheaper than the ice cubes we use to keep cool in the summer?"
Ju Xiang nodded like pounding garlic.
She was already looking forward to it. With Mr. Ning's help, she could sit in the cool and pleasant ice room and help the young lady do things in the hot summer.
"One pound of pure ice is really not cheap. After all, the production of pure ice requires high requirements, so most of the production costs come from it."
Ning Wuyan saw Shen Youchu showing how much he was taking advantage of, so he could only take out another pricing list for her to see.
What is written on the paper is about the pricing of non-pure ice.
First grade: fifty cents per catty, ice cubes with no peculiar smell and regular model.
The second level: twenty cents per pound, the ice cubes are turbid, slightly regular.
The third level: ten cents per pound, the ice cubes have a slight smell, are turbid, and are irregular.
The fourth grade is the cheapest, which is the one Yu Bingchuang bought yesterday. It only costs five cents per pound, but it has a peculiar smell, is turbid and has impurities, and is irregular in shape.
Shen Youchu pointed at the word "strange smell" on it and asked puzzledly: "What is this smell?"
"The smell of boiled saltpeter is not strong, but if it is not ventilated, it will still smell after using it too much, so it needs to be used in conjunction with other floral scents or perfumes to cover the smell. It is not harmful to the body."
Ning Wuyang told Shen Youchu about the process arrangements for making ice from saltpeter.
The first step is to make pure ice. Just like what we saw yesterday, making ice with stable saltpeter can produce transparent pure ice.
Later, he used a distiller last night to recondensate the saltpeter water into saltpeter, and then made ice cubes. Due to the saltpeter purification technology and the mixing ratio, the ice cubes could not be so precise.
The workers produce them in a unified manner. Except for the first process, the rest of the ice cubes are made into different grades, which all depends on luck.
"Fortunately, a basin of saltpeter water can be refined many times, but in order to ensure no waste, I plan to use it only three times. The saltpeter extracted again can be reused to make medicinal materials or pigments."
Ning Wuhuang's main focus is to recycle raw materials without wasting them.
Shen Youchu and Ju Xiang were all stunned.
It turns out that not only one pound of saltpeter can be made into so much ice, but the ice can also be used as medicinal materials or pigments.
What kind of magical ore is this?
This is the real money tree!
"Master Ning, if you had said this earlier, I think the price of the saltpeter Jingxian sells to you would have increased."
"So I didn't give her this opportunity, but if she needs it, I can sell the saltpeter after making it to her at a low price."
Shen Youchu thought of King Kang's family, which had been living a miserable and poor life since they received the ridiculous fiefdom in Lingnan twenty years ago.
In fact, it is guarding a cash cow.
Although it was a bit unkind, she found this matter really funny.
But she couldn't laugh anymore when she thought that without Mr. Ning, the pile of saltpeter would still be a pile of rocks that would not make much money.
"Master Ning, if you help Jingxian this time, I'm afraid Zhou An will hate you even more. You must be careful when you go out."
Before Ning Wuyan nodded, Shen Youchu continued: "How about this. Before Zhou An leaves Jinling, you eat and live with me, so that he has no chance to murder you."
Eating and living together?
Ning Wuhuang raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the small island in the middle of the lake where he landed for the first time.
This place is quite beautiful, and the safety factor is also very high.
only.
"There must have been a lot of people talking to me about business recently. I'm still busy with the perfume shop, so I won't live here..."
"It doesn't matter. I can stay where you are. Anyway, I don't choose a bed. You can arrange a room for me and I can sleep there."
Shen Youchu's words made Mei Xiang, who had not slept well for two nights and had been watching mosquitoes in Zhangjiazhuang, secretly roll her eyes.
The lady is chasing her husband.
No effort was spared, really.
Ning Wuyan didn't expect that Shen Youchu would think Zhou An was in such danger.
He took a deep look at Shen Youchu's earlobe, and as expected, it was bitten again and made a big swelling.
It seems that after pre-sales of 20,000 bottles of perfume, another planned thing can begin to be implemented.
"I will be staying at Hanshan Temple and Zhangjiazhuang in the near future. Miss Shen wants to run an ice drink shop. It just so happens that I can guard the ice making workshop there, develop a new fruit drink, and get the ice directly."
"What a great idea!"
Shen Youchu saw that Ning Wuyan did not reject his meddling, and a happy smile filled his little face.
Sure enough, after becoming a partner, even the treatment was upgraded.
Being able to make money and stay with Mr. Ning, my mother no longer has to worry about her having nothing to do.
Pricing for ice cubes was determined.
Ning Wuyan and Shen Youchu sent the other two contracts to Ji's house and Zhou Jingxian's wine shop for them to sign.
After Ji Jin learned the price of pure ice, he was worried: "Mr. Ning, you won't lose money, right?"
"No... I've always made a profit without losing anything."
Wait until Shen Youchu explained.
After Ji Jin settled the account, he realized that having a secret recipe was equivalent to having a cornucopia.
"No wonder Mr. Ning would rather mortgage Ping'an Medical Center to buy the doctor's secret recipe."
This is truly a huge profit!
"Jin'er, why are you bringing up the past?"
Shen Youchu thought that all the efforts that Ning Wuhuang had made in the past were all for Liu Qingfang's gossip.
She is not interested in the past.
She was more concerned about Ning Wuhao in front of her.
Ji Jin smiled apologetically at Ning Wuyang, who didn't care either.
After the incident, Ye Liu and the two people who wanted to harm him even scattered their ashes. He had already successfully desensitized himself.
After parting with Ji Jin, he went to the place where Zhou Jingxian was doing business, but no one was there.
"It seems Princess Xian finally knows how to rest."
Anyway, the ice drink matter was not urgent at this moment, so he stopped the carriage at the leading street of Xuanwu North Street and prepared to walk there.
I have to say, this is a wise decision.
Because along Xuanwu Lake, the entire Xuanwu North Street, which is three miles long, was overcrowded at this time.
The shouts and shouts are endless.
The crowds were so crowded that there was no way for people to pass.
Shen Youchu saw that Mei Xiang was pinched by two maids and pushed out the soft flesh around her waist. Instead of moving forward, she took two steps back, covered her forehead with both hands, stood on tiptoes and looked forward, and was amazed.
“It feels like everyone from Jinling is here.”
"At least Miss Ji and the others didn't come."
Ning Wuyan's retort caused Shen Youchu to roll his eyes.
Is this the time to joke?
Shouldn't we find a way to get into the perfume shop now?
"It seems that in order to prevent us from jumping in line, the people in front will not let us in."
Ning Wuchang spread his hands helplessly and decided to give up and squeeze in.
