At this time, the research on glass had been successful, and she was preparing to open a new shop and launch mercury mirrors to help Lu Yan raise money to pay off his debts.
At this critical moment, he wants to marry a concubine?
Bai Wanyi's face was distorted. He grabbed Lu Yan in the room and beat and made a scene: "You took a concubine and made her pregnant. That's fine, but life is hard for women in this world. You touched her, so she had no choice but to marry you!"
"But what about Miss Wu? She just hurt her face and was disfigured, but you're allowed to marry her as your co-wife. Where do you put me? Do you think you're worthy of me?!"
Lu Yan was originally filled with guilt, but faced with the mad Bai Wanyi, he also became furious and yelled at Bai Wanyi, "Is this what I want? The Fourth Prince is the matchmaker, and Lord Wu is threatening to commit suicide! If I don't agree, how can I have a place in the court in the future?"
Bai Wanyi raised his head and laughed: "You are a gigolo! You were eight years ago! You are still eight years later! You married Qin Wan and lived off her to support the whole family! I followed you, lived off me, and used my achievements to buy your wealth!"
"Now that you've married Miss Wu, I'm sure you'll be able to rise quickly in the officialdom. Okay, you're doing very well!"
Bai Wanyi's smile became more and more crazy.
Lu Yan looked at Bai Wanyi in disappointment. Who did he marry Miss Wu San for? Wasn't it because she disfigured him?
Faced with the crazy Bai Wanyi, Lu Yan no longer had the heart to defend himself. He shook his head and turned away.
After Bai Wanyi calmed down, she wiped her tears and ordered people to clean up the room.
Ping'er hugged Bai Wanyi's legs in fear: "Mother, mother, what's wrong with you? Don't cry, Ping'er is scared."
Bai Wanyi picked up Ping'er, looked at his eyes and sneered, "Forget it, no one owes anyone anything now. I'll keep the money I earned. Since you've married Miss Wu, go ask her for the money."
Anyway, she is not the head of the mansion now, and there are others to take care of the wedding banquet. Besides, isn’t there the Ministry of Rites?
Bai Wanyi quickly adjusted his mindset and took Ping'er with him, practically living in the glass workshop.
Bai Wanyi didn't have to calculate how much he had to pay back for Lu Yan, and he just started spending money lavishly.
Avril's beauty store has no plans to expand. This product is limited in quantity and therefore has a high price. There is no need to develop new products for the current ones, so she doesn't need to focus her energy on this.
Bai Wanyi mainly focuses his energy on the glass workshop and the milk tea shop.
The output of glass produced by the glass workshop increased, so she opened two shops to sell glass.
She opened a shop selling mirrors, but mercury mirrors were difficult to produce and she couldn't mass-produce them. However, scarcity makes things valuable, so it was just right to sell them at a higher price since the production volume was low.
At the same time, Bai Wanyi opened a milk tea shop.
Despite Qin Wan's squeeze, Bai Wanyi's milk tea shop is still profitable.
No matter how small a mosquito leg is, it is still meat.
If you don’t have enough shop space, you can rent one. It doesn’t need to be too big. A small shop can save costs and you can sell at a lower price.
The bigger the shop, the more expensive it is called Heytea.
The small shop is called Mixue City, and they sell one cup for one cent.
The shop is neither too big nor too small and is called Tianyaya, with prices in the middle.
In fact, the ingredients inside are the same, so when you take it all into account, you actually make a lot of money.
As for manpower, it’s easy. All the maids, old women and servants in the mansion can be used, and they don’t have to pay monthly wages. They can do the work anywhere, right?
At the same time.
Qin Wan opened five glass shops and three mirror shops in the capital.
In order to supply these shops, she opened several glass workshops near the capital.
Many craftsmen were hired to do the work.
Tao Yao was puzzled by Qin Wan's actions. "The craftsmen on our farm all signed indentures and would never pass on the recipe. But the people you hired didn't sign indentures either. What if someone got the recipe out? What would we do?"
Tao Yao had been to the research and development of new colored glass many times and actually understood it. It was not that the formula was so mysterious, but that no one thought about it in this way.
Now people have seen the method and understood the idea. Even if there is no detailed formula, it can be studied in time. By then, glass workshops will be everywhere. Will their workshops still be able to make money?
Qin Wan had anticipated this: "It's a rare method. Even if we don't hire them, it won't be difficult for them to do it over time."
"After all, the material is right in front of us. If the craftsmen are willing to work hard, there's nothing they can't make. Furthermore, colored glass is fragile, and once it's made, it will probably need to be replaced frequently. We can't supply that much colored glass right now. Wouldn't it be better to open more workshops so that everyone can make money together?"
"The most important thing," Qin Wan said with a meaningful smile, "is that if we make a lot of money, some people will inevitably become jealous and cause trouble for us. That's the first thing. Secondly, if more people do it, the price will go down. Then it will be difficult for some people to make money."
Taoyao thought about it for a moment and understood the truth that a big tree attracts the wind.
And "some people" naturally refers to Bai Wanyi, whose shop will also open in the next few days.
The days passed leisurely, and during these days, Qin Wan not only opened several glass shops.
The mirror shop has also been newly renovated, waiting for Bai Wanyi to open it.
Moreover, with the opening of Bai Wanyi's milk tea shop, Qin Wan's milk tea shop also followed suit and opened in the capital.
Bai Wanyi had already investigated all the places suitable for opening a store, so Qin Wan didn't need to go through any more trouble. She just needed to choose a location near her shop to open a store.
Bai Wanyi's shop makes little money, but she is not seeking to make a lot of money now. She is satisfied with a small surplus and a steady income.
Qin Wan's shop has much better business. She is not short of money and chooses the best location and decoration materials.
She didn't even change the name of the shop, and simply called it Piaoxiangju Second Store or Yuchuan Tea Branch.
Opening two businesses together really makes a lot of money.
When Bai Wanyi learned that Qin Wan's shop was opened after his own, he was angry for a while but then he calmed down. He would wait until his own glass shop opened and started selling mirrors, and he would be far better than hers!
Auspicious day.
The Jing Hua Yuan shop opened with great success, and half a street away, Liu Hua Ju was also setting off firecrackers.
Bai Wanyi stood at the entrance of Jing Hua Yuan, watching the manager light firecrackers and clapping his hands with a smile. "Today is an auspicious day. Several shops in Jing Hua Yuan are opening at the same time. Anyone who wants glass or mirrors can come and choose."
Glass? Mirror?
The name was fresh and no matter it was the guests who came to congratulate or the passers-by, they all came in curiously to take a look.
As soon as they entered the shop, they were all stunned to see a person who looked exactly like them walking towards them.
They took a step back in surprise, and the people inside also stepped back. They looked back, and the people inside also looked back. They waved, and the people meeting them also waved. Everyone was surprised.
"What is this?" Mrs. Sun came specially to show her support and asked on behalf of everyone.
Bai Wanyi picked up a palm-sized mirror and introduced it, "This is a mercury mirror. It reflects every detail of a person. Look, can you even see the hairs on a person's face?"
Madam Sun looked at herself in the mirror. Not only could she see the sweat hairs on her face, but she could also see the black spots on her nose. Oh my God, is this the face they were so proud of?
