Shopkeeper Qin, who was in charge of outsourcing, came to visit and was invited into the house by Liang Xiao.
"Thank you to the Hou Mansion for taking care of your business!" Liang Xiao was very grateful.
Without Dingguo Hou Mansion, he would still have to work hard for a day or two before he could build up the reputation of Baitang.
"You're welcome! My lady suggested using sugar to make cakes, so I sent my old man to ask Mr. Liang how much sugar he can sell."
Liang Xiao asked back: "I know that Dingguohou's Mansion also does cake business, so how much do you need?"
"The more, the merrier! To be honest, my lady has estimated that the amount of sugar you can produce should be close to 10,000 kilograms!" Shopkeeper Qin replied.
Liang Xiao nodded and said: "Yes, but two hundred cash per pound is just the first discount price. I am going to increase the selling price. For others, it will be four hundred cash per pound, and for you, it will be three hundred cash!"
"This is a bit expensive." Shopkeeper Qin said displeased.
"Shopkeeper Qin, if you look around the world, there is absolutely no other company that can make white sugar. If the quality of your pastries is unparalleled and suddenly leaves other companies far behind, even if it is not as unique as my white sugar,
At least it can capture most of the market share.”
"The price has suddenly doubled. I can't make the decision. I need to go back and ask the lady for instructions." Shopkeeper Qin sighed.
After sending shopkeeper Qin away, Jiang Fuxue said curiously: "Brother, two hundred coins can make a profit several times. Will four hundred coins scare away the merchants..."
"Xue'er's worry is not unreasonable, but you ignore the psychology of rich people. If I only sell it for 200 yuan, it will soon be sold to 150 yuan, or even lower. But if I sell
Four hundred Wen, to maintain the monopoly position, even if the price is reduced in the future, the price will be slowly reduced to about three hundred Wen." After Liang Xiao explained, he picked up a piece of pastry, fed it to Jiang Fuxue, looked at the sugar, and smiled.
"But my brother promised Xueer that one day even ordinary people will be able to afford white sugar, and the price of sugar will return to its proper level. Before that, my brother needs to make money from the rich. Less than 10% of people account for
Ninety percent of Dazhou's wealth is earned from them, so there's no psychological burden on you, just take it as long as you like."
Jiang Fuxue was fascinated by what she heard and looked at Liang Xiao unconsciously.
His gaze gradually became deeper.
"Has my brother been to Bashu before?" Jiang Fuxue asked.
Liang Xiao shook his head and said: "I haven't been there, but I have to go and see this great river and mountains in the future. After all, my Liang family's ancestral home is there. Maybe I can find distant relatives or something."
Jiang Fuxue said happily: "When the time comes, Xue'er will bring brother... eh, it's Xue'er who will accompany brother!"
Liang Xiao shook his head again and said, "Xue'er can't go. It's too far to travel a long distance. We'll wait until you grow up."
"Well, my brother will definitely be surprised when he arrives in Bashu."
Jiang Fuxue agreed casually, but already had some thoughts in her mind: "My brother is too fat and salty to get in, so it would be more appropriate to capture him directly..."
The grandmother who was standing by was sweating profusely while listening to the conversation between the two.
Her young lady is getting worse and worse. She wants to take her brother back to Bashu all day long!
Early the next morning, Mujia Pastry Shop, a specialty store of Dingguohou Mansion, was overcrowded.
"The quality of this pastry is unprecedented, sweet but not greasy, and refreshing!"
There are a large number of repeat customers, almost breaking the threshold of the pastry shop, and everyone who has eaten is full of praise.
As word spread, the number of customers in other pastry shops run by the family became increasingly rare, and they rushed to Mujia pastry shop to try something new.
"Is their quality improvement related to sugar?"
After hearing the news, Duanmu Yuncheng frowned.
Duanmu's pastry shop occupies half of the capital's pastry market, and this is the first time it has suffered such a heavy blow in one day.
It’s just one day!
"It must have something to do with the sugar Liang Xiao sells!"
Everyone in the Duanmu family tasted the pastries from the Mu family pastry shop without saying a word.
It tastes much better than my own dessert. It doesn’t look like it’s made with caramel or stone honey. It’s a bit close to the quality of honey, but honey is expensive but not commercially available...
In Beijing, one pound of honey can at least carry dozens of pounds of stone honey!
On the other hand, if sugar costs 200 yuan per pound, and the sweetness and texture of pastries can be improved to this level, it will definitely be worth every penny!
"Master, from morning to night, our profit in one day exceeded the previous seven days! Master is wise!"
Listening to Shopkeeper Qin's rainbow fart, Mu Ping smiled and saw Mu Qinxue who was still enjoying the pastry.
"This kid, he has a lot of experience, and he can come up with something like this... Can we imitate it?"
Mu Qinxue came back to her senses instantly and reminded: "Dad, if grandpa knows that you bully Liang Xiao, the consequences will be disastrous."
Mu Ping quickly calmed down and said depressedly: "If someone else imitates it, he won't have a monopoly. Let's try again when someone imitates it."
Mu Qinxue secretly breathed a sigh of relief and pretended to be serious: "Brother's vision has rarely improved for once. However, he is not qualified to be the son-in-law of my Dingguo Marquis Mansion. He needs to show his value again.
"
Mu Ping didn't realize there was anything wrong with Mu Qinxue's tone, and nodded: "You're right!"
Mu Lingxiao, who was eating cakes at the side, frowned and muttered: "It's me again..."
He discovered that the meaning of his existence was to protect his little sister.
Mu Ping said in a deep voice: "As a businessman, he is not qualified to enter the Dingguohou Mansion, unless he can be named on the gold medal list in the future and rise to the top. Therefore, no matter how successful he is in business, it will not change his father's opinion of him. This time he can
Making money is just a matter of luck!"
Mu Qinxue curled her lips slightly, her eyes filled with resentment.
Liang Xiao's workshop finally welcomed a group of uninvited guests.
"Sorry! It is strictly forbidden to enter this place!"
The guards blocked the shopkeepers from the door with solemn expressions on their faces.
These are all respectable people, and they have offended people by doing this.
"Just ask Boss Liang if he still has any sugar! I heard that this stuff is an excellent condiment and can be used not only for pastries!" said a shopkeeper.
The guard didn't know what to ask, so he could only ask Liang Xiao to come out.
Liang Xiao's eyes swept across the crowd, and his tone was calm: "One pound of sugar is four hundred cents, and the sale is limited to one thousand pounds at a time. You guys can do whatever you want!"
"Four hundred coins?" Everyone looked at each other.
"There is no shop like this after passing this village! If you are confident about making white sugar, you can also try it, but it costs more sugar cane." Liang Xiao said with a smile.
The shopkeepers went back to their respective houses to report the situation.
"He really dares to sell it for four hundred coins?" Mu Ping frowned and looked at Mu Qinxue, "Xiaoxue, how do you think we should deal with this?"
Mu Qinxue replied: "Why don't we let him sell it first, and then we can buy the rest and bid three hundred coins?"
"Then what if his goods are sold out?" Mu Ping asked worriedly.
"It's simple. For the sake of us opening up sales for him, he will definitely agree to leave us a thousand catties at the price of four hundred cents, and then we will discuss the business of three hundred cents."
Mu Ping narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Mu Qinxue: "You used to have the initiative in business, but this time..."
