After the whole network was hacked, she traveled through the small fishing village of Datang

Su Qingqing sold out the first batch of soap and toilet soap, and easily loaded the small mountain of copper coins onto the bullock cart.This strength was not in line with the character of a delicate woman, and the people in the drug store were dumbfounded.

In addition to selling things, Su Qingqing also bought some things at Shangshan Drug Store.They are mainly Glauber's salt and soda stone, one of the raw materials for making handmade soap. As for limestone, she asked Tian Youliang to buy it for her yesterday.

Tian Youliang works as a laborer at the fishing boat dock, where there is a small market every day.

The docks in the late Tang Dynasty did not have freezing and refrigeration technology, so the fish caught could not be stored and had to be sold on the same day to be put on the table.Otherwise, it has to be made into salted fish, so there is a small market that spontaneously formed.

Fishmongers swarm the fishing docks and basically have a monopoly on seafood pricing on the docks.

The products in the small market at the fishing boat dock are almost all seafood, with relatively few other categories.But limestone happens to be there, and it is used as a desiccant in the dock warehouse.Because it is easy to obtain, it is not very valuable.

The reason why Su Qingqing didn't buy enough ingredients at Shangshan Pharmacy at the same time was to prevent smart people from guessing her formula.

Ancient doctors and Taoist priests can basically be regarded as chemists of this era and should not be underestimated.

The reason why Su Qingqing did not sell the soaps and soaps at ridiculously high prices today was because she had bath beans, a real luxury product.

As for soap, she doesn't plan to make new ones for the time being. It takes the same effort as soap, but soap is not easy to sell for money.

The "ex-factory price" is neither high nor low. The poor cannot afford it and the rich cannot afford it.

As for the pricing of soaps and toilet soaps, they are not low anymore, as you can see by taking the price of rice as the unit of measurement.

This year, the price of rice in the grain store is about [-] Wen. Since people in the Tang Dynasty are generally short of oil and water, they rely entirely on rice to support themselves, so the people's appetite will be relatively large.

According to records, a family of five eats about 1.5 kilograms of rice per month and about half a bucket of rice per day.In other words, a family of five can afford to eat 1500 cents a month.

Su Qingqing sells a piece of soap to a drug store for [-] yuan, which is equivalent to the price of a bucket of rice, which is equivalent to two days of meals for an ordinary family of five. This is already a high price that requires some struggle before considering.

A piece of soap costs [-] yuan, which is equivalent to three buckets of rice, and is equivalent to a week's worth of food for an ordinary family. There are almost no ordinary people who can afford it.

After all, this is not an era where weight loss is popular. Spending money indiscriminately in the late Tang Dynasty would really starve you to death.

In a modern community, if one person starves to death, the grassroots units, from soldiers to leaders, will be criticized and punished.

But in the Tang Dynasty, it was too common for a person to starve to death.Ordinary people who have no food to eat should not expect the court to provide relief. They have no other choice but to wait to starve to death or sell their children and girls.

This is just the "ex-factory price" set by Su Qingqing, and the drug store will naturally increase the price when it sells takeaways.

Su Qingqing did not agree on a maximum price with the drug store before leaving, and she did not know how much profit Shangshan Drug Store would add to the price. It was unlikely that it would be higher than bath beans made from precious Chinese medicine.

Just as she was thinking about these things, Mrs. Zhang suddenly pulled Su Qingqing's arm excitedly, pointed to the left and said with a smile: "Sister Su, there is pork for sale there."

There is still a shortage of oil for making soap, so Su Qingqing needs to buy some pork suet to boil in oil today.

Su Qingqing said: "Let's go over and take a look."

Mrs. Zhang replied: "Okay."

The two of them then squeezed towards the pork stall. No one had to hold the big green cow, it would follow on its own.

They just have to pay attention to the copper coins on the oxcart and don't let anyone steal them.

In the short time it took to walk from Shangshan Medicine Store to the pork stall, Su Qingqing had already seen no less than five thieves.This chaotic scene is really rare for Su Qingqing, who lives in modern China, which basically relies on electronic payments.

However, the common people in the late Tang Dynasty basically circulated copper coins and silk, which were small in quantity and low in value. They were large in quantity and difficult to steal, so thieves could not get much.

Like those TV dramas filmed in their circle, they often come out with gold and silver ingots, but there are none at all.

The two arrived at the pork stall. Zhang helped Su Qingqing buy the pork suet she wanted, while Su Qingqing was responsible for looking at the copper coins on the bullock cart.

The local pork in China is all black pork, and the white-skinned pigs of later generations are imported varieties.As soon as it was introduced, it gradually replaced the black pork market, with only a small amount of the latter being sold as high-quality products.

The most direct reason for this situation is that black pigs are slow to be slaughtered and have low economic benefits.

It takes about a year for a black pig to be ready for slaughter, but only three to four months for a white pig.

This means that the time it takes to raise one black pig is enough to raise three to four white pigs!
China has such a large population. To satisfy people's daily meat consumption, the growth rate of black pigs is simply not enough, so it is obvious which kind of pigs will be raised in large numbers.

But slow growth has the advantage of slow growth. According to modern scientific analysis, black pork is more nutritious than white pork, and the meat is elastic and more delicious.

However, Su Qingqing was not interested in Datang's black pork. She came to buy pork suet to boil the oil and make soap, not to eat it.

Ever since she saw the villagers' pig-raising methods in a small fishing village, her knowledge has been completely refreshed.

People in rural areas of the Tang Dynasty raised pigs and built pig pens directly under the toilets. The pigs ate the food of grain reincarnation, which made her a little unbearable.

Is the black pig raised in this way considered a green food?She didn't like it anyway.

If Su Qingqing wants to eat black pork, it must be real green pork raised by herself, fed with pigweed and sweet potato vines.

The price of pork is about four times the price of rice, lard is slightly cheaper, and pork fat is the most expensive.

Su Qingqing bought a total of fifteen kilograms of pork suet and ten kilograms of pork fat.The former cost 35 cents per catty, and the latter cost 25 cents per catty, totaling 25 cents, which is always zero [-] cents.

As usual, the money is strung together and there is no need to count it in detail. You only need to count out 25 cents in change, which is quite convenient.

Zhang made the purchases for Su Qingqing, put the pork fat and suet on the bullock cart, and then continued to visit the market.

Su Qingqing has a lot to buy today. She also wants to buy two lambs, two piglets, and some chickens and white geese.As for the ducks, she has already decided to go back to modern times and buy Campbell ducks that are good at laying eggs!

There are not many high-end things in Daya Market, but chickens, ducks, geese and other farm animals are the most popular. Su Qingqing bought everything she wanted.

She also unexpectedly met an old hunter who was neglected in the market and sold lynx cubs.

Obviously, the old hunter couldn't find a way to sell such a treasure, and he was reluctant to kill it and sell it as ordinary meat.

A live baby lynx is very valuable if he can sell it to a noble.

But he sells it in Daya Market, a place where poor people gather, so who will come to patronize it?
Everyone can barely feed themselves, so who would raise a carnivorous beast - even if it is just a cub.

But just in time, he met Su Qingqing.
