Zhao Tailai's sudden outburst of rage and attack directly caused heavy injuries to Liu Jia's third uncle.
His belly was struck solidly by the kick, and the immense force overwhelmed Liu Jiashan's already aging body. His legs buckled, and he collapsed to his knees.
He clutched his stomach, his face pale with pain, but he kept pleading, "Master Zhao, please forgive me. Master Zhao, please forgive me. This old man will immediately bring the best tea."
"No need!"
Zhao Tailai was deliberately provoking trouble.
It's just an excuse.
He let out a cold snort and said, "You old fool, you're blind! Can it be that there isn't a single person in your Liu family with eyes"
"This young master shall remain seated here. You have fifteen minutes to bring your master before me. If you delay even by the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, this young master will ensure that Liu's Lan Yue Xuan disappears from Beijing!"
"Did you hear me!"
Knowing that things couldn't be resolved peacefully today, Liu Jia's third uncle gritted his teeth, enduring the intense pain in his abdomen, and said hoarsely, "I know, I know."
He struggled to his feet with the help of several men, refusing their offer to call a doctor. He gasped for air and ordered, “Quickly, go and summon the mistress. Tell her what happened here and ask her to come prepared.”
Zhao Tailei came here today obviously to stir up trouble, and besides, he had a group of well-born young masters behind him.
Today's matter, I'm afraid that a small Liu family can't stop it at all.
So this preparation means Liu Sicun should immediately notify the East Palace.
Perhaps only the Crown Prince could stop Zhao Tailei.
The man didn't dare to hesitate, immediately dashing out of Lan Yue Xuan and running frantically towards Liu's mansion.
This branch of the Lan Yue Xuan isn't too close or too far from Liu's residence. The servant ran all the way, not daring to take a breath, and when he reached the mansion, he rushed to see Master Liu Sichun.
Just as he was about to go out, Liu Sidar heard this and frowned, saying, "The master is welcoming a big person, so there's no time. What's the matter"
The fellow spoke breathlessly, struggling to explain the situation.
Liu Sidar's face changed upon hearing this, knowing that the matter was serious. He didn't have time to think about much else and went straight to the backyard.
In the backyard, Li Chen was sipping tea with his legs crossed. Beside him, Liu Sichun was reporting accounts to Li Chen with all the members of the Liu family present at home.
"Within two days of going on sale, soap has become a hit in the capital market. Over these two days, eight Lan Yue Xuan branches in the capital produced 890 bars of soap, all of which sold out. Now, as soon as they are produced, they are snapped up. Even so, there are still many people waiting in line to buy them."
Liu Sichun's tone was also very excited, she said: "If it weren't for the fact that we couldn't collect more materials for a while, our output would be greatly increased. When the master's production process is skilled and the raw material supply comes up, the daily output can be stabilized at around seven hundred pieces. At a price of five taels per piece, the daily sales revenue would be three thousand five hundred taels."
Li Chen was quite satisfied, and as he lowered his head to drink tea, he casually asked: "How much does it cost"
Liu Sichun was very familiar with these data and immediately replied: "The raw material cost of each piece is around nine hundred wen. This is because the master is not yet skilled in production, and there are waste products during the process. If it stabilizes, the cost can be compressed to seven or eight hundred wen. Including other labor, store rental, etc., the total cost of producing a bar of soap is between nine hundred and one or two taels of silver."r head to look around, but she saw that the room connected to the balcony where they were standing was empty."There."Zhang Biwu softly called out, and Fu Yuzhi quickly followed the sound. However, the...
