Huo Xi nodded towards Yang and Huo Erhuai: "It's done."
Yang, Huo Erhuai and others were very happy when they heard that. Looking at the rock sugar spread on the kang bed, it was like seeing pieces of silver.
"Then let's make more!" We can also exchange for more money. We can't wait to make sugar.
Huo Xi shared some of the first batch of rock candy with everyone, and then led everyone out of the kang room.
By the time Yang Fu came to Zhuangzi, Bingtang had already obtained nearly a hundred stones.
Yang Fu didn't expect that Xi'er would actually come up with another kind of candy, and it was still a candy like ice. He held it in his hand and looked at it again and again, and couldn't bear to put it in his mouth.
"Xi'er, let's sell the rock candy for more money this time. I thought the white sugar was sold cheaply last time."
Huo Xi nodded: "Okay. This rock candy is hard to come by. It has been used for a long time, so it should be sold for more money. The price of white sugar has also increased." Then asked him about the purchase of porcelain.
She drew a drawing and asked the Wen family in Yuezhou to produce porcelain with exotic patterns, but she didn't know if it could be sold. Then she asked shopkeeper Shen to buy some other porcelain from various kilns.
"It's half a boat. Shopkeeper Shen also asked me to take some of the ship's official porcelain I exchanged with Wu Youcai and take it to Ningbo?"
Huo Xi shook his head: "I plan to use that batch of porcelain when I go to sea next year."
"Going to sea?"
Huo Xi nodded: "Last time we transferred our quota as a timber merchant and got a sum of money from the Longxing. With what we earned this year, our Guangfeng Shui also has some capital. Next year I plan to join a boat to go out to sea."
Yang Fu was a little excited after hearing this: "Who are you looking for, Longxing?"
"I don't know yet. Anyway, there are many merchants who are combining goods to go overseas. We will slowly find some merchants to cooperate with."
"Okay. Then Shopkeeper Shen and I will slowly explore it."
"Uncle, please stay at Zhuangzi for two days. Once we have collected a hundred stones of rock sugar in these two days, we will ship back to the city."
Yang Fu nodded in agreement.
I walked around Zhuangzi and saw that his sister was eating well and drinking well in Zhuangzi. She was healthy and fat, and the child in her belly was not making any fuss. I was very happy for her.
I helped make rock sugar at Zhuangzi for two days. When I got a hundred rocks of rock sugar, I packed it with a hundred rocks of white granulated sugar. Huo Xi explained to Yang and Huo Erhuai, and then he and Yang Fu took the two boats back. Got to the city.
Huo Nian saw his sister coming back, but the monkey refused to get off her body.
"How old are you, and you still need to be hugged by your sister?"
"I have to hug him!" He hugged Huo Xi's neck and wrapped his legs tightly around Huo Xi's waist, unable to pull him away.
Pi Xiaozi is getting heavier and heavier now, and I can't hold him anymore.
After hugging him for a while, I was very tired. I found a chair and sat with him in my arms. I looked at him and saw that his little arms and legs were getting stronger and stronger. I was very happy.
"What kind of boxing and kicking skills have you learned? Show me to my sister."
"I'll show you to my sister later." She lay on Huo Xi's shoulder and refused to get down.
Thinking that he hadn't seen his parents and himself for a while, it was difficult for such a young child to do anything for him. He only followed Mr. Qin to do his studies every day. So he let him go and talked to him here and there.
"Sister, are you going out again? Will you be gone for a long time?"
"Who said that?"
"Uncle Shen said it. He said you were going to Ningbo Port, which is farther than Songjiang Port. It will take a long time for my sister to go."
"It won't take long. Just count the days to rest. After about three rests, my sister will be back."
Huo Nian hugged her neck tightly and stopped talking.
"Sister, would you like to take you to Mochou Lake for a cruise tomorrow? Why don't you go to the inner city to listen to books? Didn't you really like that ventriloquist storyteller last time?"
After coaxing him for a long time, he was finally coaxed.
At dusk, shopkeeper Shen came back from the shop and reported the situation to her: "We have transferred the goods to the two sailing ships of Guangfengshui. It is not full yet. Do you want to buy some more cloth?"
Huo Xi shook his head: "Just pack the two thousand pieces of silk cloth in the shop. There is no need to buy any more. Just pack the fans, velvet flower boxes and other handicrafts in the store. We also need to go to Yuezhou to pack the porcelain. Don't fill it too full."
Shen Qianye nodded in agreement.
Huo Xi handed him a pack of white sugar and a pack of rock sugar. Shen Qianzhong took it and opened it, and was stunned: "What is this?"
"Shopkeeper Shen, give it a try."
Huo Xi thought about it and decided not to hide it from him. The shop collected so much cane sugar and it was all shipped to Jiangjun Mountain without any shipment. As a general shopkeeper, he must have doubts in his heart. If he felt that his boss didn't trust him, It's not good for him to have a quarrel.
"Sweet?"
"Yes, it's made from cane sugar."
Can sugar like snow and ice be made from sucrose? I was surprised and excited: "Then what we want to transport to Ningbo this time are these two kinds of sugar that we want to exchange with the people?"
Huo Xi nodded: "The same kind of white sugar was shipped to Songjiang the last two times, but rock sugar hadn't been made yet."
No wonder. Such a precious thing, something that has never appeared in the country, cannot be exchanged for such precious things.
"Boss, can I follow you to Ningbo this time?"
"Do you want to go to Ningbo?"
Shen Qianqian nodded: "Nowadays, many companies are planning to go overseas. I drink and socialize with those shop owners every day, and I hear a lot. I think my boss also wants to go overseas. This year, we have some money in our account, and next year we should have some money. I can think about this now. I can go to Ningbo Port with you and gain some experience."
Huo Xi thought it was not impossible. Guangfeng Shui now has shopkeepers and managers everywhere. The few second shopkeepers and managers sent by my uncle last time were very capable. Shen Qianzhong was not here, but Yang Fu and them were here. It was completely Can rest assured.
He nodded in agreement.
Shen Qianzhong happily went back to make preparations.
Huo Xi was thinking about going to Ningbo Port, which was farther away this time. Last time she encountered water thieves on her way back to Beijing from Songjiang Port, so she thought she would have to be more prepared this time.
Then he sent a message to Mu Yan.
The two of them went to Mochou Lake and found a teahouse to sit down.
"I heard you said last time that the escort agency has opened. This time I am going to Ningbo Port and looking for ten escorts who are good at water escort to take me there. I wonder if you have anyone over there?"
Mu Yan nodded: "The manpower has been trained and we haven't opened yet, so you can just count the first business."
"Ah, you haven't opened yet? Is it so miserable?"
Mu Yan couldn't help but stare at her. If he hadn't known that she wanted to hire people, why hadn't he opened the business yet? How could the escort agency he opened have no business? Once it opened, customers came in like a cloud, and there were escorts waiting for her to choose?
This weak little liar doesn't even have the eyesight.
Turning his head and looking towards the lake, where the boats were passing by, wouldn't it be more comfortable than listening to her irritating words?
"You haven't opened the business yet. Is it because the escorts haven't been trained yet? Will they get seasick? Don't become a dragon on land and turn into a worm when you get to the water, which will cost my escort money."
Mu Yan was so angry that he gritted his teeth. What this little liar said was very unpleasant. If he hadn't thought about the goods she had exchanged and wanted to pick some and put them in Langguang Pavilion, he would have left long ago.
Huo Xi finally selected ten escorts from his escort agency who looked good at fighting, paid the escort fee, and led the people onto the boat. There were inserts on both sides of the bows, sterns and sides of the two ships in Guangfeng River. Up the escort flag.
The triangular escort flag fluttered in the wind, attracting the attention of the merchant ships on the pier.
"Shengshui Escort Bureau"? Since when did this escort agency exist in Beijing? Shengshui? Does it specialize in water escorts?
Interested people started to inquire about it.
