"At that time, Fan Tong was forced to the point of desperateness by him step by step." Zhu Hongyan sighed.

"But Fan Tong was just a prefect at the time, so how could he compare with the prince? Although Li Qi'an does have some skills, do you think of him too highly of Miss?" Uncle Ming said.

"Li Qi'an is not the Li Qi'an he used to be. I will naturally know if I have a high opinion of him at that time." Zhu Hongyan said, "I originally wanted to wait for the opportunity to see if he can use it for us, but now it seems that this opportunity is no longer great."

"Does the lady want to give up?" Uncle Ming couldn't help but say, "So don't plan to get rid of Li Qi'an?"

"Eliminate it? How do you want to get rid of him? Can you kill him? Don't forget that last time it wasn't his mercy, and I and you couldn't come back at all." Zhu Hongyan said.

Uncle Ming was silent for a moment, "But he already knew about us, and I'm afraid it would be detrimental to His Highness King Xian."

"I said last time that he disdains to do that, and his current target is the prince. The more chaotic the court, the more beneficial it will be for us!" Zhu Hongyan said.

"Then are we going to return to Xianzhou?"

"The good show in Beijing is about to be staged. If we return to Xianzhou, wouldn't we miss it?" Zhu Hongyan picked up the wine glass again, "Let's go to Beijing!"

After saying that, she also drank the wine in the glass.

...

The candle production in Beiba Village has officially begun.

For this reason, Wu Xianxian rushed back from Shiliang City.

"Candle? Li Qi'an, how did you come up with this thing?" Looking at the candle with flames, her eyes glowed.

With this thing, it can really replace the oil lamp.

I thought that if every household used candles, how much money would it be.

"Li Qi'an, how much do you plan to sell this candle for?" Then, she couldn't help asking.

In her opinion, the pricing of things like this must not be too low. After all, in any business, of course, it is to make money from rich people first.

She can even position this candle as a high-end item for rich people to use.

After all, they now have a royal family that offers this title, so the positioning cannot be low.

"Two pennies per penny." Li Qi'an.

Wu Xianxian thought she had heard it wrong. Two pennys are the difference between giving away for free? Is such a rare thing worth even a penny?

"Li Qi'an, are you mistaken? Two pennys are worth it, can you sell it to me? I want as much as I want."

Li Qian gave her a blank look, "You are my shopkeeper. Do you want to do business yourself?"

Wu Xianxian gritted her teeth hatefully, "But you price this thing too cheaply, it's a total waste."

"Do you think the price is too high, can ordinary people afford it?" Li Qi'an just said, "Poor families can't light oil lamps, but do you still make them unable to light candles? Then what's the point of making this thing?"

As he said that, he also looked at Yun Niang, "In the past, our family was poor, and Yun Niang worked hard to collect resin early in the morning to replace oil lamps at night. Even now that our family lives well, she has not changed this habit. Do you know why?"

"Why?" Wu Xianxian couldn't help but look at Yun Niang.

"You know how hard you have been through it!" Li Qi'an said, "You are a young lady and don't understand the suffering of poor people at all. I didn't make this thing for rich people. Do you understand?"

Wu Xianxian became silent.

Yun Niang looked at Li Qi'an gratefully.

She was not grateful for herself, but for the poor people who couldn't light the oil lamp.

"But, can you make money back with your labor costs, material costs, and these combined?" Wu Xianxian couldn't help but ask after a moment of silence.

"The main material of candles is resin. This thing can be collected all over the mountains and fields. As for the labor you mentioned, it is indeed the biggest expense, but we are in quantity. With more quantity, how can we not make money? It is just a matter of how much you make." Li Qi'an.

"You are the boss. Since you have decided, I have nothing to say." Wu Xianxian said with her hands spread out.

"The candle matter is settled. Chalk and soap can be played freely by you. Now that you have the title exclusively provided by the royal family, you can do whatever you want." Li Qi'an glanced at Wu Xianxian and said.

"If you say you can do whatever you want, I am just your shopkeeper, and you are the ones who are in charge." Wu Xianxian said.

Obviously, she was still a little resentful.

After all, how can things like candles be priced so cheaply? It really goes against her business purpose. Her business purpose is only one, that is, to make money and make more money.

"Xianxian, come on, I'll show you something."
