Even the civilians living in the wealthy western parts of the empire don't have such living conditions!
Master Bruno is really... He doesn't even share such good things with himself.
You can pay for it yourself!
"Speaking of which... at what price are such mosquito coils sold to civilians?" Viscount Conte asked curiously.
"You only need one copper plate to buy three pieces of mosquito repellent incense." The servant answered truthfully.
Three pieces of mosquito repellent incense only cost one copper plate?
Viscount Conte was suddenly shocked, but after thinking about it carefully... he felt relieved.
After all, even ordinary people can afford mosquito coils like this!
For the common people in Idar Territory, one mosquito coil can be cut into three pieces and used for three days.
If you are a more frugal family, you can even use it for four to five days, or even a week.
In this way, the monthly expenditure on mosquito coils is only three or four copper coins.
As for the workers who work in the Idar Steel Factory and build wonders, the income they can get in their hands a month can reach more than fifty copper plates, and even if it is less, it can still be thirty or forty copper plates.
And if there are two or more adult workers in a family, it is completely affordable to buy some mosquito coils to burn.
After all, although the living environment in this era is not very good, the cost of living is extremely low, and the bulk of the money is always spent on food.
Besides, isn’t it only necessary for the two or three months in summer a year?
For mosquito coils, Bruno focuses on the strategy of small profits but quick turnover.
You know, I'm afraid the total cost of ten pieces of mosquito coils is only one copper plate.
Therefore, instead of setting a high price and selling to the nobles, it is better to improve the lives of the common people in Idar through low prices and obtain more profits through large quantities of shipments.
In this way, not only did the copper coins in the hands of the common people flow back into Bruno's pocket, but it also highlighted Bruno's noble character as Count Idar.
"I'll take some with me when I go back..." Viscount Conte muttered.
"Yes, yes, but..."
Hearing this, the servant who served Viscount Conte quickly promoted: "...How can mosquito coils alone reflect your noble temperament as a noble? Lord Bruno has developed a brand-new toilet water specially for nobles.
product!"
"Flower... toilet water?" Viscount Conte hesitated, "What new thing is this?"
"This toilet water, like mosquito coils, also has the effect of repelling mosquitoes and preventing bites, but the difference is that the toilet water can be sprayed on your body!"
"And the most important thing is... this toilet water also has a mint fragrance, which is far better than mosquito coils!"
Upon hearing this, Count Conte's eyes widened.
I haven’t visited in a year or two, but there are so many magical things in the Idar Territory next door!
With this toilet water, I'm afraid it can not only prevent mosquito bites, but maybe... it can also suppress the stench in your territory!
You know, dumping feces into the streets and alleys is a common custom in almost every city in the Norman Empire and even the mainland, except for the city of Idar!
Moreover, the more densely populated the city, the stronger the smell of feces in the air!
Even the civilian settlements in the imperial capital of Saint Lawrence are no exception!
When he thought that he could ride in his own carriage in a sweet smell, and then pass through those filthy streets with his head held high, Viscount Conte felt happy in his heart, and even his wrinkled face showed signs of happiness.
Because after all, the nobles are the richest group of people in the world!
Moreover, how can low-end products like mosquito coils reflect the dignity and difference of noble gentlemen?
Therefore, toilet water naturally became Bruno's best choice for harvesting the nobles' money.
after all……
The leeks of the Norman Empire...well, I said it wrong, the nobles of the Norman Empire are like those fresh and tender leeks, one crop after another, and they can never be finished!
Moreover, the cost of toilet water is indeed a little higher than that of mosquito coils, but it cannot be regarded as driving up prices and disrupting the market.
If a stingy noble feels that the price is not appropriate, he doesn’t have to buy it at all!
Maybe... if you rub it with other aristocratic gentlemen or ladies who have used toilet water, it will be effective.
As he spoke, the servant on the side took out a bottle of toilet water from somewhere and handed it to Viscount Conte respectfully.
Oops!
Looks really good!
Viscount Conte carefully took the bottle and looked at the liquid in the bottle carefully.
The small amount of liquid contained in the bottle is crystal clear and looks like light green jade, which is particularly eye-catching.
In fact, similar to mosquito coils, the preparation process of toilet water is not very complicated.
The production method of the toilet water produced by Idarling is extremely simple, and the main raw materials used are mint and alcohol.
First, wash and dry fresh mint leaves, then place them in a sealed bottle, and then add high-concentration alcohol to the bottle.
After waiting for a week, take out the mint leaves, then add a large amount of water to the liquid in the bottle to dilute it, and what is left is the so-called toilet water.
Although the production method sounds a bit crude, it is very effective in use, not even much worse than the common six god in the previous life!
Viscount Conte carefully unscrewed the bottle cap with the help of his servant. Although a large amount of water had been added to dilute it, the fragrance of mint still hit his face.
"This is really a good thing!" Viscount Conte sighed.
"That's natural, it was invented by the Earl!" The servant agreed, "Moreover, the price of this toilet water is not expensive at all. You only need one gold coin to buy a bottle of this size.
!”
Although the price of one gold coin is close to the total annual income of a civilian.
But for the nobles, the price of one gold coin is completely acceptable!
For the dignity of the nobles, what does this little money mean?
Almost on the spot, Viscount Conte generously ordered ten bottles of toilet water!
Idarling made a net profit of almost nine gold and fifteen shillings!
What is this concept?
Even in the Idar Territory, where the income of civilians has increased significantly, a civilian's income is less than two gold coins a year!
This is just...perfect!
As the first person to eat crabs, Viscount Conte, who was in high spirits, immediately ordered the servants to prepare a bathtub. He wanted to take a shower and change clothes, and spray himself with toilet water to make himself smell fragrant!
The Viscount of Conte gained the dignity of a nobleman, and the Idar territory also received a barely decent profit. This... is a win-win situation!
…
While Viscount Conte washed himself fragrantly and waited for Bruno's arrival,
The three-masted warship "Pioneer" finally arrived at the military port in Idar territory.
The navy soldiers who had been doing the "Colorful Sunshine" radio gymnastics for several days under Bruno's gaze were finally free...
