I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 837
At this time, Wang Cheng felt guilty instinctively, and wanted to turn his head to look at Yang Su and ask the two of them.

But at the moment when he was about to turn his head, he was awakened by Yang Suwen's light cough.

In fact, Ma Dazhong didn't really want to ask about Wang Cheng's situation last night.

Because it is not once or twice that Wang Cheng has conflicts with others. Whether it is for Wang Cheng or him, this kind of thing is actually not a big deal. There are really few people in the whole Nanjing city. They save face.

Even if Wang Cheng really met some unreasonable stunned young man, as long as he made a fuss to the government, the other party would be designated as the loser in the end.

What Ma Dazhong really cared about was that the two guards around Wang Cheng had been replaced. This was the main reason why he deliberately asked such a question today.

After all, Wang Cheng's guards were actually arranged by him. They said they were protecting him, but they also meant to monitor him. It was a two-pronged approach.

If Wang Cheng really looked back at Yang Suwen and the two of them just now, with Ma Dazhong's sharp eyes, he would be able to see some flaws.

Fortunately, he was reminded by Yang Suwen, and Wang Cheng reacted extremely quickly.

He suddenly raised his voice and cupped his hands and said to Ma Dazhong,

"Hey, father-in-law, don't mention it, I really met Lengtouqing yesterday, and there are a few very powerful Lengtouqings.

The two subordinates you arranged for me were put to lie down in a few moments.

Even I have been punched and kicked several times, if the officers and soldiers hadn't arrived in time, it is uncertain whether the villain can come to see you today! "

Wang Cheng narrated his grievances in such a way that he complained, and his voice was eloquent and eloquent.

Ma Dazhong couldn't help believing it.

He nodded slightly, and while drinking tea, he said casually,

"Then what happened in the end? Have you found out where those people came from?"

Wang Cheng was a little relaxed just now, but Ma Dazhong suddenly came back with his carbine.

Regarding the matter of Yang Suwen and others, they had not discussed it before, so Wang Cheng didn't know how to answer it.

Fortunately, his brain is also considered to be aura, and his reaction is extremely fast.

Said with a somewhat contemptuous look,
"It's nothing special, it's just a nursing home for a few boat gangs. I just got off the boat and came to Nanjing to have fun!"

Ma Dazhong's expression remained unchanged. Hearing what he said, he just said lightly,

"Oh, which boat gang is it from? Almost none of the seven or eight boat gangs in Nanjing doesn't know you, Wang Cheng, right? Why are there still people so blind?"

Since Wang Cheng mentioned the boat gang, he was naturally not afraid of Ma Dazhong's inquiries.

He smiled slightly,

"Elder-in-law, you forgot. In the past few months, there have been a lot of boats selling soap in the north. Recently, I heard that someone plans to set up a workshop here to produce locally. So these days, the riverside There are so many unknown boat gangs coming up!"

When the soap was mentioned, Ma Dazhong's interest was immediately transferred here.

"Oh? And this kind of thing, this is the first time our family has heard of it."

At this time, he stretched greatly, and his expression changed slightly.

As if talking to himself, and as if deliberately speaking to Wang Cheng, he said,

"This soap is really a good thing. After using it in our family, we can't live without it anymore.

But the price of this soap is really expensive, it's only a small piece, and it dares to sell for four taels of silver!

Hmph, it's really lawless! "

These business matters are Wang Cheng's main business, as long as Ma Dazhong doesn't hold on to what happened to him last night, then Wang Cheng will have something to talk about.

Seeing that Ma Dazhong was interested in this matter, Wang Cheng immediately said,

"Elder-in-law, you also know that this thing has only been in fashion in the north for a short time, and the price there is also two taels of silver.

Even at this price, it's hard to find a piece over there. I heard that some people in private actually use that thing as money! "

Ma Dazhong may not know much about these things, but Wang Cheng, a shrewd fellow, pays close attention to them.

After all, there are only so many profitable businesses in this market, and he is naturally very concerned about a sudden sudden emergence of an industry with huge profits.

If he didn't have Yang Suwen and others on him now, he originally planned to go to Zhang Yongri, who had just arrived in Nanjing not long ago, to discuss about setting up a joint workshop in two days.

In fact, what Ma Dazhong said on purpose just now was also to remind Wang Cheng to pay more attention to this aspect. After all, who would think too much of profitable business.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Chengyou continued,

"As for the villain, this time it's not a stranger, and I'm familiar with those new members of the boat gang.

After waiting for two days, the villain gathered together and gathered with the person who planned to set up a workshop in Nanjing. If such a profitable business was snatched away by those nobles, wouldn't it be cheaper for them! "

Although Ma Dazhong is a low-key person and won't personally intervene in many things, he still has some understanding of the sudden rise of soap and the lucrative business in Nanjing and its surrounding areas.

In addition, things like soap are naturally very attractive to eunuchs. As he himself said, after using it, he can't live without it.

It is precisely because of this that he is so interested in this matter.

Hearing that Wang Cheng already planned to contact the other person, he nodded in satisfaction, and gave Wang Cheng a rare compliment.

"Wang Cheng, you are very good. You have hit the right spot this time. If you can do this well, our family will reward you a lot!"

Ma Dazhong's mood finally changed, and Wang Cheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Hastily said,

"Eunuch, don't worry, the villain will do his best to help you get this matter done."

Although the matter of the soap workshop may not seem like a big deal, its influence is definitely extraordinary.

You must know that the population of Nanjing City alone is nearly three times that of Beijing City, and there are many more wealthy people than Beijing City.

In addition, Nanjing is the center of the Jiangnan area, and there are rich areas such as Su, Xichang, etc. around it, and a little further away, which is not much worse than here, such as Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Yangzhou, Xuzhou and other places.

If the soap workshop in Nanjing can really be put into production.

After that year, the money earned was definitely more than five or six times that of the capital.

A capital city can bring about 200 million taels of income to the queen every year. If it is really spread out in the south of the Yangtze River, this figure will increase by five or six times. There is no problem at all.

Although it will be put into production at that time, the price will drop a lot, but it is still very easy to earn 600 million taels a year.

This large sum of money, whether it is placed with Ma Dazhong or with those top nobles in Nanjing City, is considered a huge sum of money.
