Tang Dynasty Mingyue Song Dynasty Pass

Chapter 145

Seeing this scene, Bai Shouyi's expression turned dark. He had tried so hard to speak just now, and he had promised a lot of benefits in private, yet he would turn against him temporarily.

He looked over with a bad expression, and the two shopkeepers who withdrew looked away, but the seventh uncle's expression remained normal, as if nothing had happened, and Bai Shouyi couldn't help it.

Bai Susu smiled lightly and said, "Second uncle, it seems that there are more people who support Susu. Susu should take over the position of head of the family for the time being."

Bai Shouyi snorted, "The Ding family unites many families to put pressure on the Bai family. Can you, a girl, be able to resist? At this time, it's better for us to be the elders to shoulder the burden. It's not your turn to take the lead."

Bai Susu shook her head and said, "Second uncle, you can't say that. When the family is in good times, grandpa always entrusts me to take care of the family business, and asks second uncle not to interfere in the family affairs. At this critical moment, the Bai family is always facing If it is life and death, it is Susu's responsibility."

The dignitaries and shopkeepers nodded one after another, thinking that what Bai Susu said was very reasonable.

When Bai Shouyi heard the words, his face was very ugly, and he became angry. Her words, every word of her heart, made herself embarrassed in public. She really wanted to go and slap this niece a few times; but seeing that Bailang and Peng Qingqing beside her, He still didn't dare to rush over to strike, otherwise, he would probably end up being kicked away.

"What can you do? The Ding family already has two secret recipes for white porcelain and celadon, and they are firing them on a large scale. According to what I heard, all the merchants in the ceramic business in Runzhou City have taken refuge in the Ding family. How about you?" How can we reverse this disadvantage?" Bai Shouyi sneered again and again.

Bai Susu remained unmoved, her stunning face remained unmoved, under the attention of everyone, she remained calm and composed, and said: "I have my own method, and I will also send people to improve the porcelain, so that the Ding family's white porcelain cannot be compared with the porcelain. Compared with our white porcelain. In addition, we also have several new products, such as soap soap, spirits and fine wine, which are unique in the market and will be sold in bundles at that time. Spirits are more profitable than porcelain, and when transportation is more convenient, will they refuse this business?"

This is during the few days when the family had an accident, Bai Susu thought of a coping strategy to improve the types, styles and fineness of white porcelain, and at the same time pay close attention to researching celadon, and even repay the other body with the same way, and also through similar means of the Ding family, Obtain the secret recipe of Ding family celadon.

Bai Susu didn't just focus on the craftsmen of the Ding family, because at this time, the Ding family must have kept a close watch on their own craftsmen and could not start. The firing technology of Dante's celadon mainly came from the Yue kiln, and Bai Susu had already sent people there. The country of Yue is looking for a craftsman who knows how to make celadon.

The Bai family did not do this before, because they did not intend to provoke the confrontation between the two families, because the porcelain business is very large. In addition to a small number of official kilns in various places, there are also many gentry and private kilns firing, but none of them have the financial resources and strength of the Ding and Bai families. Therefore, as long as the Bai family concentrates on making white porcelain, there will be no conflict with the Ding family's celadon, and the two families can live in peace.

But now the Ding family took the initiative to declare war, plotted for a long time, and launched a commercial war against the Bai family.The Bai family was forced to fight, and the most conservative way was to also have celadon wares, so as to offset the advantages of the Ding family.

However, this method, Bai Susu is also one of the options, and cannot be completely relied on.She still has to make breakthroughs in other aspects in order to completely suppress the Ding family.

If you don't move, it's enough. Once there is a confrontation, Bai Susu hopes to beat the Ding family.

After hearing Bai Susu's method, Bai Shouyi was a little shocked. He had never heard of soap or spirits, and he didn't know when the family had such a business!

"You're talking nonsense, fooling the elders of the You clan and all the shopkeepers. We've never heard of this kind of soap. It's all your fabricated words and sophistry excuses." Bai Shouyi scolded.

Bai Susu smiled faintly, looked at Xiao Tong behind her, and said, "Xiao Tong, take out the soap."

"Yes, Miss!"

Holding a cloth belt in his hand, Xiao Tong took out cut pieces of soap from it, each piece was only half the size of a fist, round and smooth, with a green fragrance of grass and trees, and after passing it to several clan elders and shopkeepers, Let them see for themselves.

"This is soap, what is it for?"

"It still has a delicate fragrance. Could it be something from my daughter's house?"

"Huh, it must be something for washing, right?" A shopkeeper was very shrewd. After touching it in his hand, he immediately guessed its usefulness.

There was a faint smile on Bai Susu's cold face, and he said peacefully: "This is soap. It is used for washing hands and bathing. It can remove the dirt on the body and keep it clean and hygienic. It is often used to wash the body to reduce the incidence of diseases. It also has soap on it. With its fragrance, it is more suitable for the ladies of the Tang Dynasty to use, even if it is foreign trade, it will be very popular!"

After hearing the words, all the people were astonished. Bathing with this object can reduce diseases and has a fragrance. It is conceivable how attractive it can be to women in Runzhou and even Tang.

A 50-year-old shopkeeper in Tsing Yi asked: "How much is this piece worth? What is the profit?"

Bai Susu replied: "What you hold in your hand is just a small cut piece, I will give it to you to take home and try it out. The real soap, one piece is twice the size of this one, and the initial price is five taels of silver a piece, and it will wait until the Runzhou market Gradually saturated, and then gradually lower some prices."

"One piece of five taels of silver, that's five pennies!" These people were a little surprised that this kind of soap was much more expensive than ordinary porcelain.

Su Chen heard Bai Susu's price from the sidelines, his eyes lit up, and he thought that he was indeed a profiteer. At the beginning, he thought that a tael of silver was quite expensive, so she casually set the price at five taels of silver, that is, five taels of money, an increase of five taels of silver. Times, except for the wealthy gentry, other commoners simply cannot afford it.

Most of these clan elders and shopkeepers believed in it, and showed admiration for Bai Susu.She quietly developed such a new thing, even if the ceramics business is overwhelmed, and there are such things that are sold in bundles with white porcelain, I believe those who are in the foreign porcelain business will not directly cut off the relationship with the Bai family relation.

What's more, in addition to merchants in the ceramic business, other shops selling rouge and gouache will also be very interested in it.

In this way, the Bai family will not be completely defeated by the Ding family, and their worries will be greatly reduced.

Bai Susu took the opportunity to say: "Soap is just one of them. It is a business for the gentry, wealthy households, and even the powerful and royal families. There is also soap, which is specially used for washing and decontaminating. Those poor households can also buy it home, and it is fine for washing and washing hands. The price is also much cheaper, and profits are generated by exporting in large quantities. In addition, the Bai family will brew spirits, sake and famous wines of different purity, and the business of the Bai family will only grow bigger and bigger in the future."

After hearing this, the clan elders and shopkeepers were all shocked. Except for one clan elder and two shopkeepers who were bought by Bai Shouyi with a lot of money, the rest all backed away and kept a distance from Bai Shouyi.
