Emperor Liu Hong

() "Uncle Zhong, did I calculate correctly? Our family only has 10,000+ cash in cash, and what can be used as money is only thirty or so bolts of silk, sixty or so sheep, and more than 100 stones of grain?"

After the accounts were sorted out, Liu Hong was dumbfounded when he saw the exaggerated figures in the total.He remembered that Emperor Ling would charge millions of dollars for selling a petty official. What can this 10,000+ money do? !

"Young Lord, you are right. We really only have this little property left in our house! But the autumn harvest is about to start, and we still have some income to be paid in our fief, and our business outside is still not enough. If it weren’t for these two things, we would not have a good time this year due to our family background alone.”

"Ah, no?!" Liu Hong didn't quite understand what the butler said. "How could this happen?! I thought that when I came to this Hou's mansion, I would be able to eat delicious food and drink spicy food, and enjoy it as much as I want. But I didn't expect that this majestic Hou's mansion is completely like a good-looking guy. It’s magnificent, but it’s actually a big straw bag inside, and it may close down at any time!”

"Oh, young master! You don't know that the expenses of our residence have been too high in the past few years. Let's not talk about the maintenance of our residence, just talk about the soldiers, retainers, Servants and servants are not a big expense. Besides, Houye’s disease requires a lot of money for medicine every day, and he has to use some expensive tonics. If it weren’t for how many people in our house The business, just relying on the little harvest in the fief, our family can't sustain it long ago!"

"I can't sustain it anymore? No!" Liu Hong couldn't believe this statement.Such a big and luxurious Hou's Mansion is actually an empty shelf, and it will close down at any time?But after thinking about it, "That's right. If it weren't for the considerable difficulties in the economy of the Hou Mansion, the Han Ling Emperor would not have developed such a money-greedy character in history. He even set up a stall in his own ** to earn money." Money, this is not enough, and in the end, he sold officials and nobles directly, ruining a great Han dynasty."

After thinking about this, Liu Hong let out a long sigh: "Oh, why am I so unlucky, I have to be busy with money every day in the later generations, but I didn't expect that in ancient times, I would still be the same as the later generations, and I still have to be busy for money! It doesn't matter if I'm busy, but I'm really not good at making money, otherwise, I wouldn't be living like this (diexie, Jinan dialect, meaning failure) in later generations!"

But complaints are complaints, for the Hou Mansion not to close down, but also for his future better life and making money, he still has to think carefully about it.

make money!

This stuff is easier said than done!

Although Liu Hong has insights that are nearly 2000 years ahead of this era, it is definitely not an easy task to make a lot of money in a short period of time.

Since ancient times, when it comes to making money, besides robbery, gold mining should be the first choice.

Not to mention robbery, that requires strong strength, and the current Hou Mansion simply doesn't have this ability.And once Liu Hong figured it out, even gold mining, which is similar to picking up money, is not so easy to dig.

Liu Hong knew quite a lot about gold mines, and most of them were undiscovered gold mines during the Han Dynasty.But he didn't dare to send people to dig these gold mines rashly.Because the benefits of this thing are too great, with such a Hou Ye in his family who is about to die of illness, and such a brat as his successor, doing this thing is almost the same as courting death.

Even if he takes ten thousand steps back, he will try his best to keep these gold mines from those wolves and tigers.It will also expose him as a young master who is different from ordinary people, adding countless variables to his future ascension to the throne, which is also a matter of gain outweighs the loss.

Liu Hong kept pondering and looking up the memories in his mind.

"There are a lot of money-making projects. The things of later generations are almost blank in the Han Dynasty. As long as you take them out, you should be able to make money. After all, this has been tested by history. But if you want to find something that is simple to make and can be used It is not easy to earn big money in a short period of time.”

Making money in ancient times was subject to quite a lot of constraints, so making money was much more difficult than in later generations.Among other things, a single transportation is not so easy to solve.In ancient times, there were no such things as cars, trains, ships, and planes, and transportation was entirely dependent on manpower, which was not only time-consuming and laborious, but also quite unsafe.Don't say that in the last years of the Han Dynasty, there were robbers and thieves everywhere. The poll tax and city gate tax alone were a lot of expenses. Therefore, even if you can make money, projects with small profits but high sales are not suitable for the current Hou. government.

"Brewing wine, making high-grade wine?"

Although this project is a must-have project in almost all time-travel novels, and those protagonists have also made a lot of money by virtue of this project.However, Liu Hong is quite clear that this project is sure to make money, but it is simply impossible to solve the plight of the Hou Mansion by relying on this project.

Leaving aside the production and transportation of high-alcohol wine, the wine itself is not a daily necessity.If the price is too high, even if someone buys it, the sales volume will not be much higher, but if the price is not high, then it will not make much money.Perhaps this money is a lot of income for a small family, but for the Hou family, it is definitely a drop in the bucket.

"By the way, make toilet water! Didn't Wang Zihao in "Tang Nan" make his fortune with toilet water!" Thinking of toilet water, Liu Hong smiled happily. This thing should be a big killer for making money in this era, after all, no matter what Sometimes, women's money is always the best earned.

As for the formula of toilet water, although he didn't collect it specifically, those things were clearly marked on the bottle of toilet water. After he recalled for a while, several of Liushen, Snake Gallbladder, and Honeysuckle came out.

Liu Hong raised his hand and wrote down the formulas of these types of toilet water, removing those that were not available in the Han Dynasty. For the rest, he made a note and asked the craftsmen to test it themselves so that they could find substitutes and figure out the various materials as soon as possible. Matching proportions to make finished products.

With the idea of ​​toilet water, Liu Hong soon came up with the second product, which is soap.This thing can not only earn women's money, but also men's money. It is a big killer against the entire aristocratic class.

Why do you say that?

This has to study the psychology of consumers.

What is aristocrats, that is, the people who buy things very expensively, so the clothes they wear are no exception.However, those washing products in ancient times have very poor decontamination ability, and it cannot remove even a little stain on the clothes.

As for the stained clothes, no matter how expensive they are, nobles with good face will not wear them out to embarrass themselves.But such old and expensive clothes, if you make new ones all day long, even nobles can't afford it.And at this point, if there's something that can get rid of those stubborn stains and the price of that thing is so much cheaper than buying new clothes, then there's no reason why it shouldn't be a big seller.

In addition to the above advantages, soap is easy to make, easy to transport, and not afraid of bumps, which is also an important reason why Liu Hong chooses it.After all, like this, you can just get some oil and caustic soda to cook, and you are not afraid of bumps or bumps. It is not easy to find a project that can make a lot of money easily.

Liu Hong handed the recipes for making high-quality wine, toilet water and soap to the butler Liu Zhong, and said, "Uncle Zhong, these are the recipes for making the three items, you can find someone to try to make them, and see if you can make them. I still have some projects here, I will sort them out later, and then you can see what we can operate, we must find a way to reverse the economic situation in the mansion."
