Chapter 225 Soap receives orders, the first batch of customized products
Xiao Ying's eyes softened a little, and she naturally did not assign any positions to these four people.
The galaxy and the starry sea all have their own things to do, and the stars and moon are too young to be forced to grow.
However, identity must be given.
"Chen Xinghai, Chen Xingyun, Chen Xinghe, and Chen Xingyue were the first to practice with me. They should be regarded as our senior brothers and sisters."
"Ren Han and his four companions came in second, followed by Meng Qingying, Qi Yu and the other twenty-eight disciples."
"I hope that you will respect your teachers, be kind to your brothers, and support each other as sisters. You will practice diligently and make the sect flourish as soon as possible!"
The expressions of more than 30 people suddenly became solemn, awakened, and full of passion.
"Follow the Patriarch's instructions!"
Xiao Ying looked at the young and tender faces and felt that he saw hope for the future.
These children are the future pillars of the sect.
Finally, there are those disciples and servants who have no talent for cultivation and depend on the sect for survival.
She looked at Zhou Meng, Xiong Dahai and others, and seeing that their eyes were full of anticipation and envy, she gave them a reassurance.
"From now on, you will be the outer sect servants of Xiaoyao Sect, serving the sect and receiving a monthly salary. If your offspring have spiritual roots and good character, they can directly become disciples of the sect."
Everyone was overjoyed and knelt down to kowtow in gratitude, feeling even more hopeful about the future.
"Thank you, Sect Master!"
After building the sect buildings for such a long time, they also have some understanding of the matter of cultivating immortals.
I know that the sect leader has set up a spirit gathering formation here, which can gather the spiritual energy within a radius of dozens of miles.
If you live in a place with rich spiritual energy for a long time, it is possible to develop spiritual roots.
In other words, it would be fine for them themselves, but their descendants are likely to develop spiritual roots.
With the sect leader's promise, their descendants will have the opportunity to become sect disciples!
What are the benefits of becoming a sect disciple? There are many benefits, the first of which is gaining powerful strength and prolonging life.
And I heard that officials dare not offend those who practice Taoism, for fear of bringing about fatal disaster.
I also heard that there are some immortal cultivation families. Even the royal family doesn't dare to provoke those immortal cultivation families easily. Their status is unimaginably high.
The sect leader is so powerful, he will definitely become a family of immortal cultivators in the future, and then their status will rise with him.
The more excited everyone was, the more the saying came true: If one person succeeds, the whole family will prosper!
At noon, a banquet was held in the square in front of the sect's main hall to celebrate the official establishment of Xiaoyao Sect.
Even though there were no guests to congratulate them, everyone was still very enthusiastic.
Chen Xinghai and the other three offered water to Xiao Ying instead of wine, and Xiao Ying drank it all in one gulp. Until today, she finally had a place to rely on in this world.
That night, except for Ling Yun and Xiao Qian, all the other appointed people stayed in the sect.
Xiao Ying took a large amount of food and supplies produced by the Immortal Palace to replenish her space, but she felt that the supplies were already a little stretched. She was eager to advance to the fifth level of Qi Refining and continue to expand the space of the Immortal Palace.
Recently I feel that my strength has reached the peak of the fourth level of Qi Refining. I should be able to advance smoothly in a few days. I just hope that more supplies will appear by then.
However, before her cultivation level was advanced, a great event happened.
It turned out that Manager Liu from Ruyi Restaurant had returned from Shangjing and brought back great news!
The soap and soap have been approved by the young master, who wants to purchase large quantities and open shops in Shangjing and various provincial capitals.
I also brought back 21 custom orders, and I hope they can be delivered as soon as possible while ensuring quality!
When Chen Xingyun received this news, the first batch of orders had just been delivered, one day ahead of the deadline, which made Manager Yun very happy.
So the two discussed the matter of continuing their cooperation. Manager Yun hoped to deliver at least 100,000 pieces of soap every month in the future, and the ratio of toilet soap to soap would also change.
Because Ning Yuanchen attached more importance to soap, he increased the proportion of soap to 50%. The cheap one cost 40,000 yuan, and the expensive one cost 10,000 yuan.
The two types of soap cost 25,000 each, which was obviously just a bonus.
"Master, the young master attaches the most importance to custom orders. This time, he has brought back 21 orders. Here are the details of the order, please review it, Miss Xingyun."
Shopkeeper Yun handed a thick stack of papers to Chen Xingyun. He had read all of them. They all wanted different things, and some were very complicated. He didn't know whether Miss Xingyun could make them.
Chen Xingyun suppressed his inner joy and took the pieces of paper to examine them one by one.
It was found that most of the requests were for various flowers, butterflies, etc., which were obviously orders from ladies and young ladies.
In addition, there are the four gentlemen of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, the four treasures of the study, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, which are loved by scholars, and fierce beasts such as white tiger and goshawk, which are loved by young masters.
But the most complicated one is the painting of Eight Horses. Even she finds it hard to say whether Brother Xiao Guo can completely restore it.
But she didn't show it and remained calm.
"I wonder how long it will take, Shopkeeper Yun?"
Now, in addition to Xiao Guo, the workshop has also hired three craftsmen who are proficient in carving at a high price. Most of them are the ones who previously collaborated on soap boxes, and their craftsmanship is not much worse than Xiao Guo's.
For these craftsmen, in addition to the guaranteed monthly salary of ten taels of silver, they can also get a 20% share of each custom-made item.
After all, soap carving is relatively easy. These craftsmen are only responsible for carving and do not have to worry about other processes. The treatment is not bad.
During the period without customization, everyone was not idle. They carved some molds and produced a batch of high-end soaps of uniform style.
These soaps are much cheaper than custom-made ones because they are not unique, but the patterns and styles are very exquisite, so they also have a certain market.
In addition, a batch of large soap blocks of various colors were also produced. When the color is customized, we can start carving directly, saving all the previous steps.
Shopkeeper Yun smiled and replied, "Of course, the faster the better. Of course, the quality must be guaranteed."
Chen Xingyun said, "How about we set a deadline of ten days? I'll try to make it no longer than ten days."
"That's great!"
Manager Yun was overjoyed. If the task could be completed within ten days, he would then send someone to deliver it to the capital at full speed. It would only take half a month, which was not a very long time.
"The price..."
I still remember Chen Xingyun said that the price of each customized piece is different, and the more complicated it is, the more expensive it is.
"I'll write down the price of everything on paper right now."
Chen Xingyun said as he asked someone to bring pens, ink, paper and inkstone, and then marked different prices according to size and complexity.
Most of them were between 60 and 80 taels, including the four gentlemen of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, and the brush, ink, paper and inkstone, which were all sets, costing 300 taels and 200 taels respectively.
The Eight Horses Painting is the most expensive, costing a full 500 taels, which is calculated entirely based on the eight custom pieces.
In the end, the total amount was 2,300 taels, which was indeed a large order.
"Shopkeeper Yun, please take a look."
She showed the price to Shopkeeper Yun. This was the price she sold it at, and Ruyi Restaurant would have to at least double the price when selling it to the person who placed the order.
Because it is an internal price, it is cheaper than if she sells it directly, but she can still make a lot of money.
