In the land of the capital, the forces are intertwined, and there are many people, so it is difficult to have any secrets. (If you like this book, please bookmark biquge.info)

Therefore, what happened in the early dynasty was soon known to everyone in the capital.

Whether it is the fraud case in Qiuqiu in the three provinces, or the gambling contract between Zhao Junchen, the household servant, and the crown prince Zhu Heyu, it has attracted countless attention and curiosity.

Of course, compared with the three provinces of Qiu Yu fraud case, people pay more attention to the gambling contract between Zhao Junchen and Zhu Heyu, although the former is far more strict than the latter, but the people in the capital have their own unique arrogance, although the three provinces Qiu Yu fraud case has a heavy impact, but after all, it happened in a remote place, although the gambling contract between Zhao Junchen and Zhu and Yu is just a temple trivial, but after all, it happened in the center of the capital.

What's more, whether it is Zhao Junchen, the head of the household department, or the prince Zhu and Yu, they are all big shots, where can a few candidates who shout grievances everywhere compare?

For a time, both the government and the opposition focused their eyes on Zhao Junchen, and everyone wanted to see how Zhao Junchen could use "legitimate means" to increase the income of 200,000 taels of silver for the household within a month.

This is not an easy task.

Zhao Junchen, was he promoted to the head of the household? Or is it convicted of "bullying"? Everyone is waiting to see what happens.

However, to the great disappointment of the "audience" with different thoughts, Zhao Junchen didn't seem to care about this bet that was related to his future fate, and in the next three days, he went to the court, work, and returned home as always, as if nothing had happened.

The only thing worth mentioning is that in these three days, Zhao Junchen bought the largest rouge workshop and soaphorn workshop in the capital, however, used rouge and soaphorn to increase the income of the household by 200,000 taels? Unless Zhao Junchen is crazy, it is simply impossible.

At least, in the minds of the world, such a thing is simply impossible.

However, the truth is often hidden in the illusion, and few people have noticed that in the past three days, the best rouge craftsmen and soaphorn craftsmen in the capital have resigned from their jobs to their old employers, either with a resolute attitude, or forced to be helpless.

………

Three days later.

On this day, after getting off the morning court, Zhao Junchen did not go to the Ministry of Rites to work, nor did he return home, but came to Xicheng in a sedan chair.

When he arrived at the destination, Zhao Junchen got off the sedan chair and looked up, but saw in front of him a large courtyard with three entrances and three exits, and a sign hanging on the courtyard - "Yuerong Fang".

This name was taken by Zhao Junchen himself, which means "women are those who please themselves".

It is now an industry under Zhao Junchen's name.

As soon as Zhao Junchen got off the sedan chair, he saw Xu Qingyan walking out of the courtyard to greet him, looking quite tired.

"Young Master, you're here."

Zhao Junchen nodded, patted Xu Qingyan's shoulder, and said, "I've worked hard for you in the past three days." ”

Xu Qingyan said as a matter of course: "For the sake of the young master, it is also necessary to work harder." ”

Hearing Xu Qingyan say this, Zhao Junchen's heart couldn't help but warm.

To tell the truth, this Xu Qingyan is by no means a good person, I don't know how many bad things and lack of virtue he has done over the years, and his ability is limited, but he is extremely loyal to Zhao Junchen, and he considers Zhao Junchen in everything, and he is the only person Zhao Junchen trusts now.

Accustomed to Xu Qingyan always following him, he hasn't seen him for the past three days, and to be honest, Zhao Junchen is really a little unaccustomed.

And just when Zhao Junchen sighed, Xu Qingyan had already led Zhao Junchen towards the courtyard, and at the same time explained to Zhao Junchen: "According to your instructions, young master, I have already taken down the largest rouge workshops and soaphorn workshops in the capital, and concentrated them here, rouge and soaphorn are simple to make, and the tools are not complicated, so the two courtyards are enough, now the east courtyard is a rouge workshop, and the west courtyard is a soaphorn workshop." ”

Zhao Junchen nodded and asked, "Are the craftsmen all invited over?" ”

Xu Qingyan nodded yes and said: "Please come over, there are quite a few foolish and loyal people, who have wasted a lot of my effort, but fortunately, the best rouge craftsmen and soap craftsmen in the capital have all been concentrated in our Yuerong Fang." However, they are still studying your recipes, young master, and they haven't started yet. ”

Seeing Xu Qingyan's brows furrowed, Zhao Junchen said with a smile: "It's a good thing to study the recipe first, if they start work rashly, I won't worry about them, the manufacturing process of these two things is not complicated, don't worry." ”

Different from later generations, there are few job-hopping in this era, these rouge craftsmen and soap horn craftsmen found by Xu Qingyan are all generations of long-term workers with a century-old brand, and their ancestors have worked for an owner from generation to generation.

However, Zhao Junchen did not ask Xu Qingyan about his means of poaching, whether it was coercion or inducement, at this time, Zhao Junchen only needed the result.

After pondering for a while, Zhao Junchen said, "Take me to see those soaphorn craftsmen first, I have something to say to them." ”

Xu Qingyan nodded and said, "Young Master, they are in the West Courtyard." ”

………

After coming to the West Courtyard, Zhao Junchen saw more than a dozen soap craftsmen, of different ages, old and young, all of whom were the best soap craftsmen in the capital.

Some of these soaphorn craftsmen looked excited, and some looked sad, which is thought to be due to Xu Qingyan's different ways of poaching. However, at this time, their behavior was unified, they were all studying the pancreatic recipe given to them by Zhao Junchen, and their attitudes were quite serious, and they would occasionally discuss something with each other.

Seeing the seriousness of these people, Zhao Junchen nodded with satisfaction.

"Lord Zhao has arrived, you guys hurry up and greet you!"

With Xu Qingyan's shout, the soap craftsmen noticed Zhao Junchen's arrival, and when they saw the official robe on Zhao Junchen's body, they all showed panic on their faces, and hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

"Get up." While Zhao Junchen was talking, he found a chair to sit down at random, and after everyone got up, seeing the panic on the faces of the craftsmen, Zhao Junchen said slowly: "From today on, this official is your owner, this official knows, many of you are unwilling to come to me to do things, it doesn't matter, loyalty is a good character, I don't blame you, I just hope you can maintain this kind of character here in this official." As for your original owners, the official has given them enough compensation, and from now on, you no longer owe them anything, as long as you do things for your official faithfully. ”

Listening to Zhao Junchen say this, all the craftsmen are scattered, but many people are still not in high spirits.

Of course, there are many others who are looking forward to it.

Zhao Junchen smiled slightly, and continued: "Since you are doing things for the official, then the official will never treat you badly, from today onwards, all of your wages are three times the original, meritorious service will be rewarded, and if there is a mistake, it will be punished, which is also the principle of the official's work, from now on, you are free to match, in a group of three or five people, according to the official to give you the recipe to make pancreas, the first group to be made, the official will reward each of them with five hundred taels of silver, if it is made well, the official can even promote you to be an official, the opportunity is rare, You're going to have to get it. ”

Hearing Zhao Junchen say this, all the craftsmen looked much more excited, three times the salary, a reward of five hundred taels of silver, and a craftsman as an official, these are much more important than loyalty.

"Thank you, sir, we will work hard."

The craftsmen had not been trained accordingly, and their answers at this time were not neat and seemed a little messy, but their voices were loud and their spirits were much better than before.

"That's good."

Zhao Junchen smiled and nodded, without delay, and after a few words, he took Xu Qingyan to the East Courtyard to talk to those rouge craftsmen.

In fact, the manufacturing process of pancreas and saponaria is not much different, both are based on pig pancreas, the most important change is to change the processing method of pig pancreas, and replace soybean flour with plant ash, these craftsmen are skilled, and it is not difficult to manufacture in a short time.

The reason why Zhao Junchen set up another perfume workshop is just a double insurance just in case.

After finding those rouge craftsmen, Zhao Junchen said the words he had just said to the soap craftsmen, and then he didn't delay anymore and prepared to go home.

Before leaving, Zhao Junchen told Xu Qingyan again: "Send some trustworthy people to come here to watch, those recipes can make us a lot of money, but we can't reveal the news." ”

Hearing Zhao Junchen say this, Xu Qingyan's face also became stern, and he nodded and said, "Young master, don't worry, I will send someone to keep an eye on this place." ”

Zhao Junchen nodded and smiled, and said, "I don't worry about you doing things." ”

………

In the next ten days, Zhao Junchen, as always, went to court, work, and went home, as if he had completely forgotten about the gambling contract.

It's just that I occasionally go to Yuerong Fang to see the progress of the manufacturing of pancreas and perfumes.

Zhao Junchen's actions naturally can't be hidden from the eyes of people with hearts, and today, people already know that Zhao Junchen really wants to make up his mind on the rouge soap!

Many people think that Zhao Junchen is crazy and wants to use soaphorn and rouge to increase the income of the household by 200,000 taels, how is this possible?

During this period of time, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, looking at Zhao Junchen's eyes were all weird, the crown prince Zhu and Yu also ridiculed Zhao Junchen in front of Zhao Junchen several times, even Emperor Deqing couldn't bear it, and summoned Zhao Junchen several times to ask about progress and grasp, but Zhao Junchen was indifferent, and often only answered in one sentence.

"Just wait and see."
