Chapter 43 A wonderful metaphor

As long as you are not blind, you can see the huge difference between the two salts.

Fusu and Wang Ben were also shocked.

The salt boiled by the master, from the appearance, is unknown how many times better than Qin salt.

Chen Qilin nodded and smiled: "Hmm, yes! Your Majesty, try it again, how salty are the two salts!"

Ying Zheng came back to his senses, stretched out his finger, tapped the two portions of salt, and tasted the taste of the two salts.

Teng!

After tasting it, Ying Zheng immediately stood up, his face full of shock.

"The master's salt not only looks great, but also has a much saltier taste than Qin salt, and the taste is more pure! The best, this is the best salt!!!" Ying Zheng praised it.

"Sir, father, can I try it too?" Fusu asked.

He looked at Ying Zheng's appearance and couldn't help it.

Chen Qilin smiled and said: "Crown Prince, you are free!"

Ying Zheng also nodded.

Fusu tasted the two kinds of salt, and his face was also full of shock.

"Good salt, top quality, colorful!!!" He also praised.

"Sir, Your Majesty, I also want to..." Wang Ben saw that His Majesty and the Crown Prince praised the salt of the gentleman so much, and he also wanted to try it.

With the consent of Chen Qilin and Ying Zheng, Wang Ben also tasted the two kinds of salt.

He blinked his big mouth, raised his thumb and said excitedly:

"Wonderful! Wonderful! Qin salt is like the old woman with heavy makeup in the Chuguan (brothel), it looks rough and it is rough when sleeping; and the salt of the gentleman is like a rich girl with fair skin and beautiful appearance, delicate and fragrant, the two are not in the same grade at all!"

Ying Zheng, Fusu, and Chen Qilin all focused their eyes on Wang Ben.

"Everyone, I am a rough man, and I speak roughly. If I say something wrong, don't blame me!" Wang Ben was a little scared by their gazes, and hurriedly said.

He couldn't afford to offend any of the three in front of him.

Chen Qilin patted Wang Ben on the shoulder: "Tongwu Hou, who said you are a rough man? Your metaphor is very appropriate! Your Majesty, the crown prince, don't you think so?"

The gentleman said so, Ying Zheng and Fusu had to nod.

Then, Ying Zheng thought of a key question: "Sir, your salt is very good, but I don't know how much it costs to make it?"

If the refined salt provided by the gentleman is very expensive, it can only be sold in the circle of powerful and rich people. If the sales volume is not large enough, it will not make much money.

Chen Qilin smiled confidently and said: "My salt costs much less than Qin salt!"

He learned from the system that sea salt, lake salt, and well salt before the Song Dynasty in China were all obtained by taking brine as raw materials or boiling with firewood.

The process is cumbersome, consumes a lot of manpower and firewood, and the cost is quite high, and the quality is not very high.

But the refined salt production technique that Chen Qilin bought from the system uses the method of drying sea salt, and the technology is very perfect.

This technique is easy to operate, the cost is much lower than the boiling method, and the quality of the salt obtained is far superior to Qin salt.

"Sir, is this... is this true?" Ying Zheng said excitedly.

"Really!" Chen Qilin nodded seriously: "I promise, if your majesty cooperates with me, the Qin salt business will definitely make much more money than before!"

He said the truth. The cost of salt is reduced, the quality is improved, the output is increased, and the price is lowered a little, so that ordinary people can buy it openly, which will definitely increase the sales of salt by multiples.

By then, both sales and profits will increase significantly.

Chen Qilin is making the salt market bigger!

Ying Zheng was quite moved when he heard it.

He knew how powerful it was.

The original disgust also disappeared without a trace!

Chen Qilin struck while the iron was hot and said: "Your Majesty, in the cooperation of the salt business, you and I will split the profits 30% and 70%, I will take 30% and you will take 70%, I will provide the technology and you will provide the manpower and material resources, be responsible for sales, etc.! How about it?"

Ying Zheng's face turned black!

Sir, you are just asking for too much!

You want to eat fart!

Even if your salt-making skills are superb and your salt business is profitable, your price is too high!

The atmosphere on the scene became tense again!

"Sir, you are the first person who dares to propose such a cooperation to me!" Ying Zheng said with a stern face: "Aren't you afraid of my anger?!"

Chen Qilin smiled and said lightly:

"Your Majesty, people often say that the king's anger will cause blood to flow and pestles to float, and others are afraid of the king!

But I'm not afraid, I haven't broken the law!

For cooperation, conditions must be negotiated!

I will add another restriction, that is, I will only take 30% of the profits from the salt business from now to the next ten years, and all the profits will belong to Your Majesty after ten years, how about it?"

There are only more than nine years left, and Tiandao Tower will take Chen Qilin away from Daqin, and he will definitely not get the profits in the future.

So, he simply told Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng was stunned when he heard it.

Chen Qilin added: "If your majesty is still unwilling, then forget it, there is no need to discuss other business, the door is there, please come, no need to see you off!"

He directly issued an order to expel the guest!

Others are afraid of you, Qin Shihuang, but I, Chen Qilin, am not afraid, Tiandao Tower is my territory!

My territory, I have the final say!

Fusu and Wang Ben, who were standing aside, were very worried when they heard this!

Afraid that your majesty would kill someone!

But Ying Zheng was not angry, nor did he answer the gentleman immediately, but fell into thinking.

After a while, he looked at the gentleman, with a gentlemanly and open-minded appearance, and then thought of his anger just now, and couldn't help feeling a little ashamed.

My heart is not as broad as the gentleman, and some villains are always sad!

After thinking about it, Ying Zheng nodded: "Sir, I agree to your suggestion. Let's cooperate in the salt business and split the profits 30% to 70%!"

"Hahaha!" Chen Qilin was very happy to get Qin Shihuang's approval. He stepped forward and patted the other party on the shoulder and said: "Your Majesty is wise!"

"Sir, what are the other two businesses you mentioned?" Ying Zheng asked with a smile.

Chen Qilin took out two other documents and handed them to Ying Zheng: "One is called glass, and the other is called cement!"

Chen Qilin chose these two technologies after careful consideration.

Glass first appeared in ancient Egypt 4,000 years ago. The production process of ordinary glass is not complicated. With the technical information provided by Chen Qilin, it can be mass-produced.

The production process of cement is not complicated either. Limestone and clay are used as raw materials. After mixing in a certain proportion, they are calcined in a vertical kiln similar to burning lime to make mature materials, and then ground into cement.

Glass? Cement?

Ying Zheng, Fusu, and Wang Ben were all confused.

These two things were unheard of and unseen by them.

"Sir, what is glass? What is cement?" Ying Zheng said.

Chen Qilin took out a glass sample and said, "This is glass. It can be installed on the window. It is both light-transmitting and can prevent wind from blowing in, and prevent mosquitoes... It can be said to have many wonderful uses!"

Ying Zheng and Fusu are both smart people, and they understand it at once.

When they heard what Chen Qilin said, their eyes suddenly lit up, and they stared at the glass sample in the gentleman's hand, shocked!

Mr.'s glass will be revolutionary for the construction of the Qin Dynasty.

If this glass can be mass-produced, it can be widely promoted in the Qin Dynasty, and it will definitely make a huge fortune.

"Oh my God! This is simply a treasure that only immortals can use!" Wang Ben stared with his leopard eyes and blinked his big mouth.

The Qin Dynasty had not even invented papermaking, and windows were covered with a curtain behind them.

Wang Ben was right. This glass is undoubtedly a treasure of immortals, for the Qin people of this era.

In the following time, Chen Qilin explained to Ying Zheng in detail the production method of glass, its various uses, and the forging process of cement.

Cement also deeply shocked Ying Zheng, Fusu and others.

With cement, building the Great Wall, canals, and highways is like a god's help, and it also plays a decisive role in building houses.

They admired the gentleman with all their heart!

The wisdom of the gentleman is unparalleled in ancient and modern times, and no one can match it!

In the end, Chen Qilin and Ying Zheng successfully reached a cooperation agreement.

Just like salt, Chen Qilin provided technology, Ying Zheng was responsible for manufacturing and sales, and the profit was divided into 30% and 70%, and the agreement was valid for ten years.

When everything was discussed, it was almost dusk.

Chen Qilin was very happy that there would be a lot of money flowing in in the future.

He greeted: "Your Majesty, Crown Prince, Tongwu Marquis, it's getting late, everyone stay and have dinner together!"

"I, it's disrespectful to refuse it!" Ying Zheng said with a smile.

"I, it's disrespectful to refuse it!" Fusu said with a smile.

"I'm welcome!" Wang Ben swallowed his saliva and said.

The third update!
