Emperor's Stand-in: My physique improves a little bit every day

Chapter 74: Popular in Baiyujing (Please read it later)

For the first sale of glass products, Tan Qianqian prepared a million mirrors, which were basically placed in the various Tan's silver shops in Baiyujing.

A small number of them were scattered in some cities around Baiyujing, preparing to see how the sales were, and then to carry out larger-scale production.

Moreover, being able to produce a million mirrors in just a month or so already shows how powerful the Tan's business was.

Before the hour of Mao, some citizens appeared in front of the Tan's silver shops, curiously chatting about mirrors.

"Are you here to buy mirrors too? I heard that Tan's Silver Shop invented a peculiar method of refining instruments, which can produce many extremely clear mirrors, and the price is very low, the cheapest one only costs one hundred copper coins."

"I always feel that it is impossible. The price of mirrors is so high. The worst bronze mirror costs several taels of silver, which is not affordable for ordinary people like us. Tan's Silver Shop can actually invent a mirror that is better than a bronze mirror, and the price is only one hundred copper coins. It is simply nonsense."

"Tan has been doing business for thousands of years and has a good reputation. Since he boasted so much, he should not lie, otherwise he would be destroying his reputation."

"That's right. It is precisely because I believe in the reputation of Tan's business that I rushed here early in the morning, just to buy a glass mirror."

...

As time went by, more and more citizens gathered in front of Tan's Silver Shop, which shows that everyone still believes in the reputation of Tan's business.

After all, many people don't believe that Tan's Silver Shop can produce such a cheap mirror, and it is better than a bronze mirror.

Nowadays, the most popular mirrors on the market are bronze mirrors. As many citizens said, a bronze mirror costs at least several taels of silver, which is thousands of copper coins.

The second is jade mirrors, which are generally only used by high-ranking officials and wealthy people. At least one mirror costs hundreds of taels of silver.

Many ordinary people can't afford mirrors at all. They usually look in the mirror and put on makeup by the water, which is extremely inconvenient, especially for women.

Now, when they suddenly heard that Tan's Silver Shop was going to sell a glass mirror that only cost a hundred copper coins and was clearer than a bronze mirror, how could many ordinary women not go crazy.

Even the poorest ordinary people could still buy a glass mirror if they gritted their teeth.

Amid doubts and expectations, Tan's Silver Shop opened before Chenshi.

In the past, it was open at Chenshi, which was seven in the morning in the previous life. The working hours were generally until seven or eight in the evening, a full six hours, which was considered a good job.

"Open, open, everyone, get ready to go in and buy glass mirrors."

"Don't crowd, the silver shop has enough glass mirrors, everyone can buy them."

"Where are the guards? Maintain order and don't cause any trouble."

...

Perhaps out of curiosity, or because of the reputation of the Tan's Silver Shop, many people were sent to the front of the hundreds of Tan's Silver Shops in Baiyujing.

There were more than a hundred people, and at least dozens of people, all coming to buy the legendary glass mirrors.

As soon as the store door opened, these customers entered one after another, and were surprised to find that the best positions in the silver shop were all filled with strange mirrors.

Many citizens walked over and took them to look at them.

"Is this the mirror? It looks a little light, not as heavy as a bronze mirror, but how come it is so clear, far beyond the bronze mirror."

"Bronze mirrors are nothing compared to it, is this a glass mirror, one only costs one hundred copper coins?"

"It really is one hundred copper coins, such a clear mirror, only one hundred copper coins, no more nonsense, I want ten first."

"The Tan's Silver Shop is crazy, such a good glass mirror, only one hundred copper coins, even if you want to count the silver, it is not expensive."

...

The guests who have seen the real thing were shocked and speechless, and many guests who originally just wanted to come in to take a look immediately decided to buy it.

There are also many wealthy people who directly decided to buy a few more.

The shopkeepers in the store quickly got busy, and the guests outside heard the exclamations inside, how could they not know that the Tan's Silver Shop was not cheating, they did sell a lot of high-quality and low-priced glass mirrors this time, so they also shouted.

"Hurry up and buy it, we want to buy it too."

"If there is such a good mirror, what else can I say? I will definitely buy it."

"I said that Tan's business would not cheat people. How could the reputation passed down for thousands of years be burned to ashes?"

...

After confirming the existence of the glass mirror, many people began to call their friends. Although they did not have mobile phones, many people came with their children or companions.

So these children and companions went to greet their neighbors, and those who bought mirrors naturally showed off when they returned home, which attracted many neighbors to come and buy.

The queue, which originally had only a hundred people, immediately grew at a visible speed, especially the main building of Tan's Silver House, which was located on the most prosperous street in Baiyujing, with thousands of people queuing in a short time, which was extremely spectacular.

Seeing this scene, even Tan Qianqian was shocked. Although he had thought that glass mirrors might become popular, it would take time to ferment.

This was only the first day of sale, and it caused such a big sensation.

When the reputation of the glass mirror continues to spread, how many people will come to buy it.

Especially the millions of glass mirrors they prepared, are they enough for so many people to buy?

"It's not good. Notify the workshop immediately and let them work hard to make glass mirrors."

"Recruit people, hire people immediately, at least ten times more people."

"So many people buy a single glass mirror. If more glass items are made, what kind of spectacle can it create."

Thinking of the possible impact, Tan Qianqian, the richest man in Longjiang, was too excited to speak.

He originally thought that the 10% profit from the glass was just enough to cover the cost, mainly for the sake of his daughter and family, but he did not expect that glass manufacturing, which he regarded as just for favors, might also bring astonishing benefits to him and Tan's Trading Company. profit.

His Majesty, the current emperor, is really powerful. He can actually get such a good thing. Glass already has such a huge profit, so what kind of profit will gunpowder that is far better than glass have.

Tan Qianqian, the richest man in Longjiang, was also a little scared. Fortunately, the person behind this incident was His Majesty the Emperor, who was the biggest backer of the Daning Dynasty.

Otherwise, Tan's Trading Company alone would not be able to make such a huge profit.

Glass was okay, and Tan's Trading Company could barely afford it, but gunpowder was not. Even so, when selling gunpowder products, the cost could not be disclosed.

Otherwise, Tan Qianqian is afraid that even those divine dynasties that transcend the dynasty may be tempted.
