Chapter 724
Chapter 724 Don't hide your own private life
Xue Mei's life is peaceful but busy.
The foundation she laid in the past three years made her smooth progress in making money.
However, she also has new dilemmas at the moment.
For example, a powerful mage like Michen may be his potential opponent. If he cannot prepare for the future, it will be like putting a time bomb next to his pillow.
She had thought a lot about how to deal with Michen. She didn't have some ideas until she finished eating the chocolate candies in her space.
Xuanzang's "The Record of the Western Regions of the Great Tang Dynasty" was sent out. What Xue Mei had to do now was to build a ship.
She doesn't need to come forward on her own.
"Mom, I still have to ask you to go to the Yuan family. I want ten large ships. These are drawings." Xue Mei said.
Dai's mother took it.
She couldn't understand it, but she felt that this thing was very important, so she asked carefully: "Do you give it to the Yuan family directly?"
"I have said before that only when society progresses can we enjoy more benefits. The Yuan family is related to our interests, and I wish their shipbuilding industry would be more developed." Xue Mei said.
With current shipbuilding technology, it is difficult to build ships on the Malay Peninsula, so you can only build ships running in inland rivers.
The wind and waves on the sea can't bear it for half a month now.
There are many areas where Xue Mei’s drawings need to be improved, and an experienced master needs to be pondered together, and she also marked them out.
Once the sea ship can be built well, Xue Mei will build a steamship that can cross the ocean.
The principle of steam equipment is very simple and primitive. Xue Mei can do this now.
"Okay," said Dai's mother, "just go and see the old lady."
She asked someone to prepare a lot of gifts.
Xue Mei sent someone to call Xiuzhu and asked Xiuzhu to come back with some perfume.
In Chu, the most popular among the ladies is perfume.
It tastes better than incense, and it has not been penetrated by other people so far. Only Dai Jingge's workshop can do it. For quality, the output of the workshop is naturally not high.
There are only a few bottles in stock every month, and the others are booked after several months.
Of course, there must be preparations for cultivating bamboo in private to prevent people from needing from time to time.
It's like a young lady suddenly wants to make favors.
Xiuzhu sent four pieces and said, "The newly made rouge is light and easy to color, which is also rare. I also brought two boxes."
The women will definitely like these things when they are taken to the Yuan family.
Dai's mother said to Xiuzhu: "You are becoming more and more capable. Unfortunately, they are not as good as you and have not yet experienced it."
Xue Mei: "Each of them has their own advantages, and you don't need to be as capable as Xiuzhu."
Dai’s mother: “…”
If a child is not good, there must be a parent who indulges and spoils her behind her.
Xue Mei is.
Xiuzhu pursed her lips and smiled.
Dai's mother went to Yuan's house, and she was sent to two hospital guards, as well as a little maid who specialized in taking care of Dai's mother.
Then, the guard came back.
"...Master, the master of the Yuan family said that he didn't understand many places very well. If you have time, he would like to come and visit you and ask in person." The guard road.
Xue Mei nodded: "You go and inform me and ask the Yuan family to send someone over. I have time here."
Everything is going in an orderly manner.
The Yuan family indeed sent two experienced masters to come.
Xue Mei communicated with them for five days and made various plans on the drawings. The masters were very surprised. When they returned to the Yuan family, they praised Xue Mei to the head of the family: "Marquis Chengyang really doesn't hide his own personal information."
The eldest master of the Yuan family was also very happy, thinking that although this person was granted the title of marquis, he was still the Miss Xue who came to the door at the time, and he was very sincere to the Yuan family.
"You just build the ship as the Marquis said. Use it with confidence and don't save any amount of iron; as for the tung oil, the ship must be strong as much as you use," said the master of the Yuan family.
Xue Mei had sent her mother to tell the Yuan family that there were a lot of spices on the island not far away overseas.
Spices are a must-have for cooking meat, and the price is very expensive, but the islands do not have any money.
If you pull a boat back, you can transport tens of thousands of kilograms, which is tens of thousands of cash, which is simply to grab money.
The Yuan family sent ten boats and came back in two months and shared the same amount with Chengyang Hou, nearly one million taels would be earned in a year.
What business can make so much money?
They needed the "sea compass" that Xue Mei mentioned and the "sea route map" described in her letter. Without these, the Yuan family could not find the island with spices.
Because of these two things, the Yuan family had to share half of the profits to her, and the Yuan family had no objection to this.
When it comes to making money, the reason why the Yuan family generously gave money to Xue Mei was because Xue Mei let them make more money.
In terms of shipbuilding, Xue Mei did her best and could see that she was as passionate as the Yuan family, and they were grasshoppers on the same boat.
After the Yuan family returned, Xue Mei went to his own fragrance workshop and found the Hu brothers.
The Hu brothers hired ten people, but it was just the last process, and the two brothers controlled it. The brothers were used to various means on the market and had first-class skills in preventing meticulous work.
Xue Mei asked the two of them: "Do you want to learn medicine from me? I am a world-famous miracle doctor, you all know..."
The Hu brothers were not excited at all, but changed their faces and asked Xue Mei a little sadly: "Mr. Marquis, is it not good for us to manage the workshop?"
Xue Mei: "..."
She explained that when she first came to them, she wanted to find two apprentices and assistants; and the reason why they were asked to manage the workshop was to win over their hearts.
"... Through the workshop, you know my abilities, and I also examine your nature and are familiar with each other." Xue Mei said truthfully.
The Hu brothers looked at each other.
Finally, Hu Er asked Xue Mei carefully: "Mr. Marquis, if we don't want to learn medicine from you, will you drive us away?"
Xue Mei: "..."
She probably made a mistake.
The reason why the Hu brothers are involved in the medicine market is because their natural place is there, and they only understand this, not their favorite.
After making flavors and running the workshop, the brothers found that they had the same interests: they like to watch the fragrances finally turn into concentrated essences, and they also like to run the workshops and make money.
"...If you are willing to teach medical skills, you can go find your father-in-law..." Hu Er suddenly said to Xue Mei again.
Hu San stepped on him hard.
Hu Er felt pain and understood that he had said the wrong thing.
Hu San explained it to his brother, but at this time, Xue Mei had already walked out of the workshop.
She was a little discouraged.
It is easy to find a business assistant; it is difficult to find a medical assistant.
She misses Lu Wen and Lu Shu very much at this moment.
Especially Lu Wen.
Xue Mei felt that she should think of a way to send Caiyuan back to Liangguo.
Because there was some understanding of the friendship between her and Lu Wen, Hongluan told Xue Mei.
She took Jinping away from the workshop and returned to Prince Zhuang's Mansion, the maid said that a guest had arrived.
"What guest?" Xue Mei asked.
Maid: "I only say I'm looking for you."
Is it dust?
Mi Chen shouldn't be so fast, and the maids all know that it was Master Mi Chen.
Xue Mei went to the main hall of the outer courtyard.
She was shocked when she saw the person coming.
