Chapter 208 The prince has given you four requirements
Yu Tao clapped her hands and praised, "What a great idea! Our Yinshan County facial cleansing soap is already very popular in the Northwest, and it will definitely be a big hit in the capital!"
Yu Jiuer said confidently: "To create high-end products, we must establish a brand. I gave our soap a nice name - Snow Skin Soap. Once we make the 'Snow Skin' brand famous, will we still be afraid that the world will not know how powerful the Yinshan people are?"
"But, there are only three and a half months left. It's so tight. Will it be in time?" Yu Tao suggested with a worried look on her face.
"It would take at least two months to ship the soap from Yinshan County. Why don't we just open a soap factory in Beijing? This way we can save a lot of transportation costs."
Yu Jiuer raised a wicked smile and said, "The price of my soap will double again. Are you still worried that you can't afford the shipping fee?"
Yu Tao widened her eyes and asked in surprise: "You really dare to shout?"
In the northwest, the price of soap is already very high. How about doubling it? She would never dare to think of it.
Profiteer!
"Don't make a fuss. Open your mind. There are many rich people in Beijing. Prices are low. They feel that your soap is not worthy of them and it lowers their standards! Believe me!" Yu Jiuer continued,
"Besides, soap can only be produced in Yinshan County. It is impractical to open a factory elsewhere."
"Why?"
Yu Jiuer analyzed: “First, the production of soap not only relies on technology, but also requires teamwork.
When we developed the soap back then, it was not just my effort. Many people contributed. The soap was developed by the Yinshan people working together.
Do you know how much effort the Lu family craftsmen and other technicians put into soap making, from building the factory to making the soap's appearance mold?
Second, we must not disclose the soap-making technology to others. If we hire someone from Beijing, we might lose the technology.”
Yu Tao suddenly had a strange idea and asked, "What if we submit a petition to the Emperor to ask for permission for the Yinshan people to come to the capital to set up a factory to make soap?"
Yu Jiuer sneered, "Don't even think about it! The emperor wants all his people to go to the border to guard the border. Will he agree to a large number of Yinshan people coming to the capital? Besides, Yinshan County is still bound by the Yinshan Contract. It is even more impossible for the emperor to violate the contract for a piece of soap.
The last point is very important. We Yinshan people work diligently and seriously, and treat the factory's affairs as our own affairs. This is something that outsiders cannot compare to. Moreover, if we want to develop Yinshan County's industry, we can only export goods from our county!"
"Yutao is too superficial! You have a deep heart, which is a blessing for us in Yinshan!" Yutao's eyes were red, and she put her hands together and prayed to the sky, "I hope God can have mercy on us in Yinshan County and make our wishes come true!"
Yu Jiuer said firmly: "That's a must! We have good products, and with the help of merchants, it's not long before the Yinshan people come to prominence!"
For that day, she would not hesitate even if her body was torn to pieces.
Yu Tao was already in tears: "If there really comes a day when someone from our Yinshan County can pass the palace examination and take over as the county magistrate, and the matter of you disguising yourself as a man is completely forgotten, then I really have nothing else to ask for."
Yu Jiuer smiled: "I have confidence in the current students of Yinshan, they will not let me down. In the past, they were hungry and had no opportunities, but now, their enthusiasm for learning is not inferior to mine!
In the past few years, our Yinshan County has produced many scholars and juren, and even a gongshi, and they are not far from passing the palace examination! "
Yu Tao wiped away her tears, no longer at a loss for the future, and said confidently: "Then let's work hard together! Sooner or later, the world will look at our Yinshan County with new eyes!"
Yu Jiuer looked at her sideways and teased, "So do you want to marry Wei Zheng or not?"
Yu Tao's face turned red, and she lowered her head and said angrily, "Hate it! For the sake of Yinshan County, can I not get married?"
"Is it really just for Yinshan County? Don't you have any expectation of marrying Wei Zheng?" Yu Jiuer looked down from the second floor and teased with a curled lip.
"That fool's carriage is still parked at the corner of the street. I'm afraid he's waiting for me to come out so that he can ask if you agree!"
"The ghost is still here!" Yutao cursed, but she was happy in her heart.
Yu Jiuer immediately shouted at the door: "Lüxiu, go tell Deputy General Wei that the matter has been settled. Ask him to take time out to go to Yunwu Villa to arrange the wedding. When the prince returns from his business trip, we will hold the wedding banquet!"
"Why are you in such a hurry? Isn't it more than three months before the prince marries a concubine? There's no need to be so anxious." Yu Tao was startled and suddenly felt a little nervous.
Yu Jiuer said: "Marry you off quickly so I can feel at ease! Otherwise, I will have more troubles!"
"Why is my heart beating so fast suddenly!" Yutao covered her chest with her hands, her face full of nervousness.
"You have pre-marriage phobia! Don't be nervous, you are not marrying someone you have never met before! If it were me, it would be as easy as praying to a Buddha. What is there to be nervous about?"
Yu Jiuer had a look of disdain on her face. After she finished speaking, she suddenly realized that she had given birth to two children without even having a wedding. How pitiful!
Yu Tao teased her: "In three months you will also be marrying the prince. Let's see if you will be nervous then."
Yu Jiuer sighed and said, "What's there to be nervous about? Four women are worshipping with him. I might be more nervous worshipping the God of Land than that!"
Coming out of Linglong Pavilion, Yu Jiuer was in a low mood. She stepped into the carriage and told Shadow, "Let's go to Sunset Restaurant for a drink!"
When she thought that in the future there would be a large group of goblins in Prince Jing's Mansion who would oppose her, and she would not be able to escape from the palace, she became depressed and just wanted to drink to her heart's content.
But she didn't dare ask Shang Buqun to come out and drink with her again!
Oh! It seems I can only drink alone!
But just as Yu Jiuer's carriage stopped in front of the Sunset Restaurant, a large group of Jinyiwei rushed over from all directions.
The leading Jinyiwei was still the cold-faced straight man. He bowed meticulously and said, "Madam Concubine, the prince ordered us to escort you back to the palace!"
Yu Jiuer could no longer bear it, and she opened the curtain and yelled, "Isn't the prince out on business? He even told you to keep an eye on me at all times? What does he mean by that?"
"Before leaving the city, the prince gave you four requirements: one, stay away from the Prime Minister; two, do not leave the city; three, do not drink outside; four, do not stay out overnight."
Yu Jiuer was so angry that she was fuming: "Oh my god! If I don't agree, are you going to tie me up with a rope and take me back to the mansion?"
The Jinyiwei replied seriously, "No, the prince said to press acupuncture points and let Yueying take her back!"
Yu Jiuer's eyes went dark, and she hysterically ordered Shadow: "Go to Sunset Restaurant and buy ten jars of wine, not a hundred, and put it on Prince Jing's account. Also, don't let me see these annoying Jinyiwei again--"
Damn scumbag! Is your possessiveness so strong?
Do you really think she is a flirtatious woman and want to monopolize her by force?
Who knows what these Jinyiwei are talking about her behind her back?
Where can she put her face?
It's really hateful!
Yueying obeyed the order, drew out the sword with a "swish", and looked at the Jinyiwei with a stern look.
The Jinyiwei achieved their goal, bowed to Yu Jiuer and quickly retreated to the side, not wanting to cause any trouble at all!
Yu Jiuer didn't know that her arrogant appearance happened to be seen by Prime Minister Rong who was having dinner with his colleagues in the private room on the second floor.
His face was gloomy, and the look he gave Yu Jiuer was full of disgust and contempt.
After Yu Jiuer returned to the mansion, she immediately shouted, "Housekeeper, call all the servants here. We are going to hold a banquet in the mansion tonight. I want to get drunk with everyone!"
She was so angry that she had no place to vent, and she was under a lot of pressure. She was extremely depressed and just wanted to vent it out.
I can’t go anywhere else, but I should be able to act arrogantly in the palace, right?
Anyway, she will feel unhappy unless she does something out of the ordinary!
Butler Feng asked in surprise: "Is today a good day?"
Yu Jiuer was startled, then she winked at him and said, "Can we host a wedding banquet for you and Madam Qing?"
Don't think she doesn't know. This old guy has taken advantage of the recent decrease in the number of idle people in the mansion to deal with Nanny Qing.
Nanny Qing is a widow who was bullied by a bully in the village ten years ago. Butler Feng happened to meet her when he returned home and brought her to Prince Jing's Mansion.
She was weak and could not do heavy work, so Butler Feng arranged for her to help the tailor in the mansion do some light work such as embroidery.
But before, Lu Xiu told Yu Jiuer, "Everyone often bullies Madam Qing behind Butler Feng's back, and always leaves their own work to Madam Qing. Madam Qing is honest and cowardly, and she is afraid of causing trouble for Butler Feng, so she always endures it silently."
She has to support such an honest person.
Yu Jiuer has not yet realized that her willfulness tonight will bring her a huge crisis!
This made her situation, which was already surrounded by enemies, even more dangerous.
