Du Qi arranged the glass-making matter, so he didn't care about the glass-making matter anymore. There were specific people in charge of the specific matters. If Du Qi was in charge of everything, he would definitely be overwhelmed. Therefore, whether it was the tea shop at the beginning or the bank later, Du Qi chose to delegate all the power to his subordinates.
When Du Qi was dealing with government affairs, the chamberlain came in to report that Li Yanyun and Qianxue wanted to see him.
Now Li Yanyun was already the Empress.
Qianxue was also the Imperial Concubine.
Their identities could be said to be incomparably noble in Xia Xia.
Du Rang informed the two of them to enter. After the two of them took their seats in the hall, he said, "Why are the two of you here today?"
Qianxue looked at Li Yanyun and motioned for her to speak.
Li Yanyun said, "Your Majesty, Sister Qianxue and I are here to do something. Since we had a child, although we were in charge of some industries, because our focus was not on them these years, we mainly took care of the child, so we haven't managed the business affairs well. Fortunately, the shopkeepers under us took care of it, so there were no problems in the industries. "
After a pause, Li Yanyun continued, "But after discussing with Sister Qianxue, we think it's inappropriate for this situation to continue. The two of us decided to run the industries well. After all, the child is already so big, and the child has a special teacher to teach and a father and mother to take care of him. So now, we are ready to seize all the industries. "
Qianxue also said, "We have been in the harem, and the child has been taken care of and taught. The Empress and I have nothing to do all day. We have too much free time. Now, it's time for us to do something. "
After hearing this, Du Qi's mind became active.
Li Yanyun and Qianxue's work was an opportunity to promote the status of women. However, the specific things were not so easy. They could only be done step by step.
Du Qi said, "I don't object to you coming out to do things. You don't have to care about the bank system. In addition, all the previous industries will be handed over to the Ministry of Revenue. Next, you will be in charge of the new industries. "
The two of them were stunned when they heard this.
This change was too big.
Li Yanyun was a little confused and asked, "Your Majesty, why? And what is the new industry? "
Qianxue looked at Du Qi with a puzzled expression.
Du Qi said, "The reason is actually very simple. At present, the bank and all the other businesses are under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Revenue. The profits from all these industries were used to fill the national treasury so that the imperial court could arrange many things. Once you take over, everything will be a mess. So what you have to do now is to take charge of the new business. Furthermore, the new property will no longer belong to the Ministry of Personnel. You will be in charge of it yourselves. It will be a separate treasury, and it will be my personal purse. "
"Sure, sure!"
Li Yanyun didn't even think about it and directly agreed. It was naturally excellent to be separated from the Ministry of Revenue. In this way, they could use the money as they pleased and not be restrained by the Ministry of Revenue.
Qianxue also nodded in agreement.
At this moment, the two women were filled with fighting spirit. Because under this premise, they would be able to prove themselves even more. Moreover, this way of earning money would make Du Qi truly rich.
Du Qi also had money now, but the Imperial Court's expenditures were too high. Most of the money earned from the various industries had been used up. Now, it was more appropriate to establish a separate treasury.
Li Yanyun thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, we have to look for other businesses on our own and open up business opportunities. What exactly should we do? We can't do the same thing and still run a tea shop or something like that. This is a little inappropriate. "
Qianxue nodded and said, "The Empress is right. In the current situation, we have no direction to start a new business."
Du Qi said, "There is a direction."
Li Yanyun said, "Your Majesty, please guide us."
Du Qi said, "Let me hear you call me husband."
"Husband!"
Hearing this, Li Yanyun said shyly.
Du Qi also looked at Qianxue, and Qianxue also called him husband. Du Qi said, "There is no monarch and minister between the three of us. Remember in the future, just call me husband. You don't have to call me Your Majesty."
"Yes!"
The two women answered in unison.
Du Qi asked the servant to bring the glass sent by Wang Ping and a small mirror made before. He said, "Look, this is what you are going to sell next."
The two women immediately went forward and looked carefully at the glass mirror. Especially when they saw the complete reflection of their appearance in the mirror, the two women were pleasantly surprised. For women, it was an excellent gift.
Li Yanyun said, "Husband, I like this small mirror so much. It reflects my appearance so clearly."
Qianxue also said, "Yes, it's so clear."
The expressions on the two women's faces were extremely happy. The mirror was too surprising. The mirrors used now were mainly bronze mirrors. Once the glass mirror was made, it would definitely be promoted and sold.
Du Qi said, "Next, the mirror will be your first industry. In addition, the glass is also gradually being produced. There will be more and more. This industry will definitely develop well in the future. "
The existence of glass was bound to be a big change.
It would definitely be popular in the world.
The two women were actually not sure about the future of glass. But just the fact that glass could be made into mirrors was enough to make money. After all, many noble ladies and even people from big families could use it.
Du Qi saw the two women's expressions and thought about the industry. Now that the government affairs were on track, he said, "About the mirror sales, you can arrange it yourselves. In addition, I will prepare new things for you to sell in the near future. In this way, our palace treasury can be really enriched. "
Li Yanyun beamed with joy after hearing this and said, "Husband is so nice."
Qianxue was also very happy.
Li Yanyun said expectantly, "Husband, can you tell us what the new thing you are going to make for us is?"
Qianxue also said, "Yes, husband, please tell us."
Du Qi said, "This has to be kept a secret. You can go about your business. In a few days, I will inform you."
"Yes!"
Hearing this, the two women turned and left.
Du Qi sat in the main hall, thinking about the new industry he wanted to open for Li Yanyun and Qianxue. Suitable for women were clothes, bags, shoes, perfume, jewelry, and so on. Every one of them was suitable for women. However, Du Qi was not very good at clothes and bags. Although he had many books in his mind, they were not high-end enough.
After thinking for a while, Du Qi made up his mind to make perfume. Because perfume could quickly become popular in the world.
This was a huge industry.
After all, it was easy to earn money from women.
Du Qi had an idea and searched for the process of making perfume in his mind. He benefited from the changes in his mind after traveling. It was as if his mind was stuffed with an entire library. All the books were in his mind, and the process of making perfume could be found.
After Du Qi found the process of making perfume, he was quite helpless. Because what he could make now was the simplest formula recorded. It was impossible to reach the formula of the big brands of the future. But even so, the simplest perfume could become a classic.
Because there was no such thing in this era.
Therefore, the simplest perfume could become a classic.
Du Qi wrote down all the processes of making perfume, and then looked at the process again. He memorized all the processes, and then transcribed the raw materials needed to make perfume one by one.
All the raw materials needed to be prepared for this production. Du Qi made a list and immediately arranged for people to prepare all the raw materials involved.
In fact, with Du Qi's current craftsmanship, the craftsmanship he used was the simplest. The first raw material was wine, and the second was petals. However, the wine had to be distilled and purified to extract the alcohol, so that it could be mixed with the petals and finally extracted into the simplest perfume.
In fact, it was best to have essential oils. However, in the current situation, the extraction of essential oils was more complicated and difficult. Therefore, what Du Qi wanted to make now was the simplest perfume. After the first stage of perfume, according to the process of making essential oils and subsequent research, he would naturally make a better perfume.
The petals that Du Qi collected this time were all dried petals. There were dried roses, dried jasmine flowers, and some other dried flowers. Moreover, they were all non-toxic and were well prepared.
In the current 2-3 months, there were no fresh flowers at all. Therefore, he could only use these dried flowers. Although it could not achieve the best effect, at least he could extract the fragrance from these petals.
