Chapter 94 Zhao Liushou cleans the toilet
When the person arrived, he put his hands behind his back, craned his neck, and peered in from all sides. There were just too many people, a huge crowd.
After listening to the group of people talking all at once, the gist of it was that the excrement could be flushed away through the bamboo tube and wouldn't have to stay in the latrine.
In that case... it seems like it really won't attract those little white bugs...
"Get out of my way." Zhao Liu stepped across the threshold and looked at the white, plump, round thing on the ground with a smooth, mirror-like surface.
It looks like it's made of ceramic.
He tapped it with his hand, and it made a clear, ringing sound.
"Wow! It really is ceramic."
Shopkeeper Sun chuckled: "Sixth Brother Zhao, my shop only sells ceramics, so you won't find anything else here."
"The raw materials for this ceramic are from Shanggu Zhai."
Zhao Liu rolled his eyes at him, his eyes filled with gloom.
He spoke as if he didn't recognize his own products.
"Of course, these are materials from my family. But I remember that Ning Xing Shou gave you the raw materials to make ceramics. How did you end up making this filthy thing?"
Upon hearing this, Manager Sun quickly waved his hand and said, "Oh dear, Zhao Liulang, that's not right. My ceramics business isn't doing well, so I've switched to making toilets. How can that be something filthy?"
"Could it be that even Zhao's sixth son would find himself disgusted with his own excrement?"
"Hahaha."
This caused the onlookers to burst into laughter.
Zhao Liu was a little embarrassed: "Don't drag this into the mess. I mean, with such good material, why do you have to make this useless thing? It must have cost a lot of money, right?"
He deliberately looked at the people and said, "Since ancient times, this is how we excrete waste. Now we're spending money on useless things. Do you all think it's necessary?"
"How many kilograms of rice can you buy with 1,000 copper coins?"
"How much meat can we buy?"
"We can't even get anything to eat or drink, and to spend money on things like this, I really feel like we're wasting our money!"
Manager Sun said calmly, "Zhao Liulang, this county town has progressed with the times. It's different from before. In the past, people were covered in mud and dirt. You had to wash yourself when you got home."
"If you don't wash, will that young lady let you into her bed?"
When Manager Sun asked this question, the people around him laughed even harder.
"Look at Zhao the Sixth Son, it seems like even the young lady can't be allowed to sleep with him!"
"Wait a minute, it seems that Zhao Liulang hasn't gotten married yet!"
"Hahaha."
Zhao Liu stared at him, his eyes deep and a small flame flickering in them.
"A bunch of brutes, you don't know anything. I'd rather have none than something bad."
Shopkeeper Sun continued, "The same goes for flush toilets. A person has to be clean. If you're clean, the young lady will naturally let us men sleep with you."
"This money buys you cleanliness, peace of mind for your wife, convenience for the elderly in the family, and safety for pregnant women. One thousand copper coins—you won't lose out, you won't be cheated!"
"You're getting excellent value for your money!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
"I never expected that Manager Sun's eloquence would improve overnight."
This is also Su Jingge.
He was essentially learning on the spot.
Zhao Liu pursed his lips; he couldn't let Su Jingge sell her things.
If these products become a hit, everyone will buy them from her, and ordinary people will forget about them.
Isn't this stealing business?
The reason why Manager Sun can still get goods from them is because the contract period for this year's goods has not yet expired.
If the contract expires, he might go to Su Jingge.
Isn't that stealing business?
That girl is amazing; she even managed to defeat Zhao Zhou.
They even confined the princess to her quarters.
They even managed to elevate Xiao Yinhe, who held a nominal position, to the rank of prefect.
Who the hell can I reason with?
If we don't suppress her, and she rises to power, then what will become of Shanggu Village?
We definitely can't let her sell this thing.
He straightened his back and said, "Let me advise you all, this thing is really useless. You see, even though Manager Sun takes goods from my shop, Shangguzhai never cheats anyone!"
"Isn't that right? We can't let ordinary people waste their money, can we?"
"I--"
He was about to speak when Sun Changgui silenced him with a kiss.
"Mmm~"
Sun Changgui narrowed his eyes and smiled at everyone: "Zhao Jia Liulang said that it is very necessary to buy this toilet. If there is any problem with the materials, everyone should go to Shanggu Zhai as soon as possible."
"Of course, you can come to me too."
After he finished speaking, he gave a look and several servants came up and pulled Zhao Liu to the next room to have some tea.
Zhao Liu was so angry that he flung his sleeves.
"What the hell are you guys doing? You won't listen to advice, will you? Just you wait, something's definitely going to go wrong."
He snorted and left.
Because Su Jingge had warned her that once the business became successful, it would inevitably attract envy.
Sun Changgui knew that Zhao Liu had always been at odds with Su Jingge.
Both families are in business, but now Su Jingge is the county magistrate.
He'll definitely have to follow her recommendations.
The deadline for this year is approaching, and he will no longer be getting goods from Gu Zhai.
The main problem is that the raw materials are too expensive!
When will he be able to build a big house?
When will I be able to see a paradise on earth?
-
Zhao Liu returned to Tianbao Pavilion in a huff.
He held in his pee and went to the outhouse, only to find that the outhouse was gone and had been replaced by a round, gurgling flush toilet!
He was furious, his face turning ashen, and he roared:
"Who the hell replaced the latrine?"
-
After flushing the toilet, he took a deep breath, a sun-kissed smile on his face.
I've discovered that this toilet is really useful!
That Su Jingge is a real genius.
My legs aren't numb anymore, so I can squat down and read books.
Especially for someone as fat as him, his belly must feel cramped.
So comfortable!
Suddenly, I felt like I could poop smoothly!
But then I thought, no, we can't let this thing become popular.
Could our own people make this thing?
He squatted down and began to examine the toilet closely.
It's a large circle made of ceramic, with a white circle on top that looks like wood, hard, and the middle is hollow. This is where a person sits.
That round, disc-like thing on top is the lid.
But how can this excrement be sucked in through the bottom ring of this ceramic piece?
I wanted to reach in and see what was inside that round hole.
I want to take a look and explore.
It depends on the underlying principle.
But I just pooped, is that really inappropriate?
The outstretched hand was then withdrawn.
No worries, it's about making money, there's no shame in it.
So I started to try it out.
Just then, someone outside needed to use the restroom, and the broken wooden door opened with a push.
The man froze, watching Zhao Liu squatting there, his hand inside the toilet...
"Sixth Brother, what are you doing here? Didn't you eat enough this morning?"
"Sixth Brother, this won't do!"
"If word gets out, what will become of Shanggu Zhai's reputation?"
"Where is the head of the guild's dignity?"
Zhao Liu's lips twitched: "Get out of here, I'm researching flush toilets!"
Upon hearing this, the manager breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest: "Oh...you scared me to death. When did you change your tastes?"
"Sixth Brother, could you please go out first? I'm here..."
Zhao Liu shook his hand, straightened his back, and went out.
After the manager came out, he heard Zhao Liu muttering to himself.
He quietly followed him, sensing that something was off about the man ever since he came in…
"That's not difficult. We can have the craftsmen from Shangguzhai make a replica overnight."
"But this water tank..."
Zhao Liu frowned again, pushed open the door and entered the latrine. He touched the water tank from the left and right, and even tapped it with his hand. It seemed to be made of ceramic.
The manager breathed a sigh of relief: "Sixth Brother, so you wanted to copy this flush toilet! You should have said so earlier!"
