Yucai Academy's monthly exam rewards have earned Shen Wan another wave of praise. She feels that her method of motivating students to study hard is very good and is worthy of reference by major academies.
By mid-to-late April, Jiangzhou's spring tea has basically been picked. Whether it is high-quality tea or ordinary tea, it is basically in the hands of the Yun family and the Shen family. Then it comes to the point where the price of tea is decided by the two families. when.
Shen Wan does not want to create such a monopoly. It is true that these foreign tea merchants have too many evil intentions.
The tea merchants acted as hosts and arranged for Yan to return to the building. They hosted a banquet for the stewards of the two tea shops. They wanted to find out from them the prices of tea sold by the two tea shops this year. They also said that the price of autumn tea last year was very good. A vague expression that he wanted to buy it at last year's price.
The manager didn't say the price clearly, he just said that when the time comes, the owner will announce it naturally, but the price will definitely not be lower than last year.
The tea merchants complained one after another, saying that if the price was higher than last year, they would not make much profit by transporting it back like this.
The manager of Shen Ji Tea Shop said: "We, the county master, had no intention of competing with you for ordinary tea this year. The reason why we taste tea is to use it to make the best black tea and scented tea. It is you who have to use your tricks to suppress the tea farmers." The price is high, and our county boss only made the move."
The steward spoke bluntly, which made the tea merchants blush with shame.
It is said that shopping malls are like battlefields. In order to make more money, shouldn't they use some scheming and tricks?
But at the moment, it seems that these schemes and methods are not feasible in Jiangzhou, because there is such a wealthy county owner in Jiangzhou.
In the future, when it comes to buying tea, they will no longer dare to use these little tricks and tricks, and will just do business honestly.
"But don't worry, our county boss has always been kind-hearted. This move is just to prevent the tea farmers from suffering losses and to prevent you from grouping together and ruining the price of tea in Jiangzhou. So the price will not be too high. Don't complain in front of us. We all know the price of Jiangzhou tea outside. Even if the price is doubled from last year, you will still make a profit."
"Yes, yes..." The tea merchants looked at each other with helpless expressions on their faces and said yes again and again.
This year, the purchase price of ordinary tea has more than doubled, at 90 cents per catty, and all of Shen Wan's top-grade tea has been made into black tea and various scented teas.
The prices of black tea and jasmine tea, which are tribute teas, continue to be the same as last year. A can of 50 taels of silver per kilogram is not available for wholesale, and each person is limited to purchasing ten cans.
As for rose tea, chrysanthemum tea, and white orchid tea, because they are not tribute tea, the price is relatively low, twenty taels of silver per jar, unlimited.
Shen Wan knows how to do business, and tribute tea should be rare and valuable, so she didn't use all the tea leaves to make black tea and jasmine tea. If she made more, everyone could buy it and drink it. Come, then it’s not surprising.
Although rose tea, chrysanthemum tea, and white orchid tea are also very fresh, because it is not tribute tea, tea merchants do not dare to risk buying more. One person only bought dozens of cans and planned to take them back to sell them and try them out. The main thing is to grab them. If the tribute tea sells well, I will come to Jiangzhou to purchase more.
Therefore, there was still a lot of stock of these three kinds of scented tea. The workers in the tea factory were a little worried when they saw the backlog of goods in the warehouse, but Shen Wan was not in a hurry and did not sell all the black tea and jasmine tea. There were still some leftovers. Half of it.
Anyone who went to Shenji Tea Factory or tea shop to buy tea would be given a can of milk tea powder produced by the factory as a trial. She also gave workers who had worked hard recently an extra month's salary as bonuses. Don't worry when you get a bonus, because being able to get a bonus means you're still making a lot of money.
As soon as the spring tea came out, it was time to send tribute tea to the imperial city. In addition to jasmine tea and black tea, Shen Wan also added some rose tea, chrysanthemum tea, white orchid tea and a few cans of milk tea powder. It was said to be a new tea newly developed by the tea factory. Those who were given to the emperor for a taste were not picked out by the government officials and were sent to the imperial city together.
