There were a total of two thousand kilograms of sugar, of which one thousand kilograms were sold in bulk, and the other thousand kilograms were swept away by the Gongsun family. Liang Xiao announced the sale to the Gongsun family in public to thank the Gongsun family for their support.
Because of this incident, Gongsun Ling was very grateful to Liang Xiao.
One tael of silver can currently be converted into a thousand copper coins.
The purchase price is 400 Wen, and the resale price is close to 500 Wen. The profit of this thousand kilograms of white sugar is one hundred taels of silver. Counting the previous two thousand kilograms, it is three hundred taels.
Three hundred taels of silver is a huge amount of money that ordinary people may not be able to earn in a lifetime, but for the Gongsun family who was born in Bashu, it is not enough to fill their teeth.
But these three hundred taels are of great significance. First of all, they accidentally proved the Gongsun family’s foresight in raising the price of sugar!
These three hundred taels also mean that the Gongsun family will have the opportunity to purchase large quantities of sugar from Liang Xiao and then transport it to other places for resale. This is a long-term transaction.
A mere tens of thousands of kilograms of sugar cannot even keep up with the needs of wealthy households in the capital!
The population of Dazhou is tens of millions, and there are countless gentry and local tyrants from all over the country. You can imagine the future of sugar!
Especially the Jiangnan area, which is rich in the world...
"Boss Liang, it's a bit unkind of you to sell goods like this! The Gongsun family can clear out everything, but our family can't?"
Finally, several merchants expressed their dissatisfaction and reprimanded Liang Xiao in public.
Liang Xiao turned around and glanced at that person. It was the Duanmu family servant who came to his house and forced him to go to the Duanmu family.
"I need to emphasize several times that this month is just a trial sale. The Duanmu family is known as a scholarly family. Can't the servants even understand what they are saying?"
Liang Xiao's retort made the man blush and helpless.
Now all the merchants in the city are hoping to buy "original price" sugar from Liang Xiao instead of buying it from Gongsun's family for 500 Wen.
Of course, the Gongsun family is currently unwilling to sell it.
Several other merchants that were trying to eliminate white sugar were unwilling to sell it because they were still connected to pastry shops, so they all invested white sugar in the development of pastries.
Liang Xiao announced in public: "When my batch of sugar is sold out, the method of selling sugar will be clarified!"
All the traders looked at Liang Xiao eagerly, and some were angry but dared not speak, such as Zhenyuan Hou Mansion, Duan Mu Family, etc.
There are also people who are full of expectations, such as the Gongsun family and the Dingguo Houfu.
Especially Gongsun Ling, who personally came to Liang Xiao to buy sugar, saw Liang Xiao's words and deeds, and already had concerns in his heart.
Liang Xiao didn't care at all about this.
It's a buyer's market now, and he has the final say.
When white sugar came out, the supply was definitely in short supply for a while. Even if Dingguohou Mansion had a complete set of equipment, if they didn't understand the specific process, it would be impossible to make white sugar in a short time.
Gongsun Ling returned to Gongsun's residence with sugar and came to the lobby.
A majestic and handsome young man in black robe has been waiting here for a long time.
Gongsun Ling, who plays an important role in the business circles of the capital city, stood up and bowed to this man and reported: "Young Master, Liang Xiao has mastered the technology of making white sugar. He seems to be looking for a partner to find a rare commodity!"
"His luck has turned out to be good for him. Otherwise, based on his business skills, my sister would have gone home for him in less than a year."
The young man spoke, his voice majestic and bold, his eyes sharp.
Gongsun Ling and his kneeling companions did not dare to express their anger.
The young man in front of him is the eldest grandson of the Generalissimo of Bashu and a legend in the military circles of Bashu.
Gongsun Wuji!
He joined the army at the age of sixteen, led troops to fight against thieves, and was able to seize the heads of enemy generals from among thousands of troops, which shocked Bashu!
Ten years of military career have turned him into an unparalleled warrior, and he is now the appointed successor of the Generalissimo of Bashu.
He is such an unparalleled warrior, but he has weaknesses that are difficult for others to understand.
"My little sister is really not willing to go back even if she dies?" Gongsun Wuji's tone suddenly softened, and his eyes were full of apologies.
"Yes, except for grandma, the fourth lady doesn't want herself and Liang Xiao to come into contact with any important members of the Gongsun family, especially you and the master..." Gongsun Ling looked nervous.
"Then why did she ask you to take care of Liang Xiao again?" Gongsun Wuji frowned.
"They should be worried about Liang Xiao going bankrupt." Gongsun Ling said with a smile.
Gongsun Wuji couldn't help but gnashed his teeth: "Then what kind of magic did Liang Xiao use to make my ten-year-old girl follow him so wholeheartedly? She is still just a child!"
"It is said that the fourth lady was in danger and Liang Xiao sacrificed her life to save her. She was seriously injured and on the verge of death." Gongsun Ling replied.
Gongsun Wuji slapped his forehead, feeling annoyed: "It's not her own willfulness that allowed this son to take advantage of it..."
Gongsun Ling quickly reminded: "Young Master, the Fourth Miss said that everyone should respect Liang Xiaofang, especially those who are related to her by blood, let alone bully him, and not let her leave Liang Xiao, otherwise she will
I committed suicide..."
Gongsun Wuji was silent for a moment and said: "The Gongsun family owes her a lot, but my grandfather has issued a death order and must make her return to Bashu willingly no matter the cost! Does she have anything else to say?"
Gongsun Ling hesitated and said: "The Fourth Miss wants us to tell you and the Grand Marshal that she is no longer a three-year-old child. Don't try to play any conspiracy with her. The Young Master also knows that the Fourth Miss is a natural prodigy with a photographic memory.
forget……"
Gongsun Wuji was extremely depressed and sighed: "Forget it, let her run wild for now, at least that guy Liang Xiao won't hurt her. I'll make plans after I finish handling the affairs of the Great Zhou court!"
That afternoon, Liang Xiao personally tutored Jiang Fuxue in reading and writing.
Seeing Liang Xiao explain seriously, Jiang Fuxue couldn't bear it and finally confessed.
"Brother, in fact, Xueer has already memorized these Four Books and Five Classics and the "Poetry of the Great Zhou Dynasty" by heart..."
Liang Xiao was stunned: "Recite everything like a stream? Do you have the same photographic memory as my brother?"
Jiang Fuxue nodded obediently.
"Then why didn't you tell me earlier?" Liang Xiao said in surprise.
"Xue'er just wants to listen more to my brother's teachings, but now that my brother is focusing on the sugar industry, Xue'er must also be sensible." Jiang Fuxue replied.
Liang Xiao fell into silence.
"Brother is angry with Xue'er."
Jiang Fuxue held back some tears and quietly pressed her right hand on the purse containing fresh onions at her waist.
Liang Xiao quickly shook his head, patted Jiang Fuxue's little head, and sighed: "Brother is just ashamed that he didn't spend more time with Xue'er before."
Jiang Fuxue was stunned and her nose felt sore.
This is his brother, not like that bastard Gongsun Wuji!
The grandma who was standing by was stunned for a moment, but she soon became relieved.
In this world, he is the only one who can care for the young lady wholeheartedly and tolerate the young lady's willfulness.
"Brother should put his career first, and Xue'er should be the person who understands him best in the world!" Jiang Fuxue said.
Liang Xiao felt warm in his heart and felt very relieved.
He left Bashu and had no relatives, but at least he had this girl to depend on for his life.
At this moment, the guards outside came to report: "Boss, Gongsun Ling from the Gongsun family is here to visit."
