Since there is no need to go to Nanshufang and Taifu, Fang Jun is still free. If you can take leave, you can take leave. If you can't take leave, you can't take leave.

Anyway, Jinyang's disease has not yet fully recovered, so Li Er is generous.

At home, I was holding the little girl watching the snow and talking about the story. At this time, a news came.

The Erwobu Tiaoxian Drink is OK!

The news came from Fang Xuanling, and it is said that Li Shimin had nodded and agreed to the matter.

This incident was quite a big deal and had already spread between Li Jing and Li Ji.

Specifically, penicillin and alcohol are very effective in disinfecting, which can greatly reduce casualties. Sun Simiao and several imperial physicians have confirmed this matter, so Li Shimin was very happy and agreed with a big stroke of his pen.

When Fang Jun heard this news, he was immediately overjoyed.

Although it is winter now and I can’t make wine, I brewed more than a dozen barrels a while ago and stored them in the workshop, but have not been taken out. Now that Li Shimin has agreed to this matter, he can naturally take it out for Mingdatang to sell it.

Wine is a huge profit. If you buy it with a break, you will definitely make a lot of money.

Especially high concentration of liquor.

You know, there is no commercial tax in the Tang Dynasty now. Taxation is mainly agriculture, that is, renting and pursuing equal land.

The court would conduct population statistics and allocate land to males based on this. Generally, 100 mu of land were granted, of which 20 mu were Yongye land and 80 mu were entrusted as quintile land (that is, the land that had to be returned if the dead). The court collected rent and taxes from farmers based on the land grant records.

Generally speaking, today, you only need to pay two types of taxes when doing business. One is the municipal tax, which also includes tariffs and municipal taxes, which have been around since ancient times.

Such as the East and West Markets of Chang'an.

Merchants need to pay fees to enter the market. Private transactions are not allowed in places outside the market. This is the so-called municipal tax.

As for tariffs, they set up checkpoints along the road to collect taxes on merchants. For example, when Hu merchants come to Chang'an, they will pass through multiple checkpoints along the way, and the court will stipulate that some checkpoints will impose tariffs.

There is also foreign businessman.

Apart from this, there were no other taxes, which gave Confucius, who was very good at doing business.

Now in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, all nations come to worship and the Silk Road is also available, so there are many people from Hu merchants coming to trade.

Fang Jun had already investigated Hu merchants and merchants on the Silk Road, and finally came up with a result: that is huge profits!

Most of the Hu merchants who come to the Tang Dynasty to do business now sell some luxury goods.

The reason why these Hu merchants came from all the way is because their profits are extremely high and their tax rates are extremely low.

As long as they can take things over or take them over, they can make huge profits. Otherwise, the Silk Road in the future would not be so prosperous.

When Fang Jun first founded Mingdatang, he had no intention of keeping eye on the Tang Dynasty, but had long planned to follow the Silk Road.

It’s just that he doesn’t have that many people, so he just didn’t do it.

Now that the second wattage can be brought out, it can be made together naturally.

We must first sell it in Chang'an, then go to Luoyang, Hangzhou, and after we get the staff up, we will take the Hu merchants outside the pass to earn money from other countries.

This kind of liquid gold, more people want it.

certainly.

He could not do the God of Fairy Drink alone because the benefits were too great and he needed to be tied up. This room had already been planned, that is, the King of Jin and Duke Lu's Mansion.

Someone called Cheng Chubi and Li Zhi over and began to plan the matter.

"The method of making wine by the immortal drink has long been improved. However, it is winter now, and it will take the pot to be opened in the summer of the next year! Now there are more than a dozen barrels in the winery in the west of the city! Since Your Majesty has agreed to this matter, then the immortal drink can naturally be taken out!"

"Your Majesty has responded to this matter?" Cheng Chubi was overjoyed.

Fang Jun nodded and said, "Not bad! But I not only plan to sell this wine in Datang, but also need to get it outside the pass to earn some silver. This matter is very big, and it needs to be fully planned! Now I invite you two to come here to plan this matter!"

When Cheng Chubi heard this, he was stunned for a moment: "It's very difficult to leave outside the pass, and it's very dangerous!"

"There are many places to go! I have seen a lot of Hu merchants in the East and West Markets!" Fang Jun smiled and said, "It is easier to explore the way. As long as you can take it out, it is naturally not a big problem to sell it. But we still lack manpower now!"

Cheng Chubi glanced at Li Zhi and smiled and said, "Zhizi Mother, Fang Er, your plan is very big. No wonder you presented the God Drink to Your Majesty early in the morning. Have you been thinking about this long ago?"

Fang Jun nodded and smiled, "If this matter is made bigger, your Majesty will definitely agree. After all, brewing this wine requires a lot of effort. I will first take the first batch to sell in Mingdatang. When the time is ripe, I will find some Hu merchants to send it outside the pass, and the price will be increased a little!"

Cheng Chubi said in surprise: "Fang Er, how much silver do you think this can earn?"

"How much silver you can earn depends on your ability! How big you can make the stall, how much silver you can earn! Pulling you up is because I don't have enough people and someone needs to make overall arrangements. And I don't want to take care of it, so I need you to help you!" Fang Jun smiled and said, "As long as you can make it, the money will naturally not be less!"

Cheng Chubi glanced at him and nodded.

Everyone knows that making wine is a huge profit, but now the Tang Dynasty does not have enough food, and the alcohol ban is prohibited, so many people dare not openly brewing.

The ones that can be brewed are all royal palaces or dukes' mansions.

According to Fang Jun's identity, brewing alone is naturally OK, but he is lazy and thinks that the risks are relatively high and needs to be shared, so he just brings people in.

Moreover, if you want to make wine bigger, it is not enough to just one Duke’s Mansion, and others need to intervene.

The Royal Family and Duke Lu are naturally the best choices.

According to the plan, there is a cost of 30% of wine making, and the remaining 73% of the companies are divided, Fang Jun accounts for 30% and the other two companies each have 20% of them.

"This wine is extremely strong, it is a top-quality wine. If it is sold openly, it can indeed make huge profits. However, if you take it outside to sell it, you need to exchange it for some food!" Cheng Chubi said: "Now the Tang Dynasty is short of food!"

Fang Jun nodded and said, "When talking about this, I'm still a little curious. Why is the Tang Dynasty always short of food?"

Cheng Chubi was stunned for a moment and said mockingly: "Don't people outside say that you, Fang Yiai, are extremely smart? Why? You don't even know this? Not only is the Tang Dynasty short of food. Since ancient times, the land of China has been short of food!"

"Where is the root cause of food shortage? Have you ever thought about it?" Fang Jun looked at him and waved his hand again: "Forget it, you, you must have never thought about it!"

Cheng Chubi said with a smile and laughter: "I naturally thought that it was nothing more than natural disasters and man-made disasters. This year, the epidemic spread in Guzhou and Xuzhou. I don't know how much food it caused. Now it's still fine. With Your Majesty here, the Tang Dynasty is rich every year. If it were other years, I'm afraid I don't know how many people would die!"

Fang Jun glanced at him, thought for a while, and smiled and said, "Something makes sense!"

Seeing this, Cheng Chubi immediately laughed and scolded: "Zhizi Mother, Fang Er, do you still have some things to hold back and say? Is what I said wrong?"

Fang Jun smiled and said, "What's the use of telling you? It can't solve this problem? The root cause of food shortage is not in the sky, but in the people!"

"People? Who?" Cheng Chubi was surprised.

Li Zhi also looked at him.
