Chapter 165 Dahan Baitang is born, business talents are in urgent need
"What the young master just said, is it true?" Wan Sanqian asked with some uncertainty.
It’s no wonder that he doesn’t believe it, after all, to a person of his generation, this kind of thing sounds like a fantasy!
"Of course it's true. Since I dare to say this to you, of course there is a way to extract white sugar from this yellow and black brown sugar. Moreover, this white sugar is more pure and sweeter, and it also has no impurities!" "Three thousand, do you think it is the yellow-black brown sugar that attracts people, or the snow-white white sugar that attracts people? If this sugar were born, what kind of impact would it have on the Han people?" Wang Yu said to Wan Sanqian with a smile.<
/p>
"If the young master can really create white sugar, it will cause a sensation in the entire Han Dynasty, and even control the entire sugar shop!"
Wan Sanqian has been doing business for many years, and he has earned as much as one hundred thousand gold for the Wang family. He alone has earned tens of thousands of gold. With his business acumen, he naturally understands the huge profits!
………………
The next day.
Under the operation of Wan Sanqian, the tiles were made, and there were more than one, more than ten!
This is the result of the first day!
At this moment, many trusted people gathered in Wang Yu's compound, including Bai Bing, Li Xiang, Wan Sanqian, Chu Qiao...
Especially Li Fei, when he learned that Wang Yu was going to make white candy, he immediately couldn't help his curiosity and came with his sister Li Xiang, crying and making trouble.
At this moment, seeing Wang Yu preparing to make sugar, he was immediately happy. He followed Wang Yu's instructions and carefully looked after the fire in front of him!
He had great admiration for Wang Yu, a brother-in-law who had not yet married. She believed that since Wang Yu said it, he would definitely do it, so he wanted to see what the future brother-in-law said about sugar!
Is it really as white as he said?
…………
Half an hour later.
"Young Master, this sugar water is finally brewed!" After a lot of hard work, Wan Sanqian finally brewed the sugar water, and he couldn't help shouting in excitement
"So fast." Wang Yu was also quite surprised. He thought it would take a while, so he hurriedly took a closer look and found that the sugar water was not only cooked, but had already started to solidify.
After another half an hour, Wan Sanqian, who had witnessed the miracle, could no longer conceal the excitement deep in his heart. At this moment, his whole body was trembling, and his eyes were full of fanaticism.
Wan Sanqian thought he was well-informed, but now he sadly discovered that he was still a frog in the well. He didn't even expect that a small piece of tile, after being filtered, could actually purify a better product.
of sugar, and it’s also white.
What kind of mind does this have to come up with such a method? In addition, he has never heard of this purification method. He has really learned a lot today.
Unlike Wan Sanqian's excitement, Wang Yu seemed very dull, because the white sugar in front of him was at best a product of the Tang Dynasty, not to mention comparable to later generations, even the white sugar of the Ming Dynasty could not compare.
At this thought, Wang Yu shook his head and said with some helplessness: "Three thousand, this one in front of you is not even white sugar, it can only be said to be a semi-finished product, because it is still a little yellow, you are thinking of a way, it should be OK
Whiter."
"Nuo." Seeing Wang Yu's face so calm, not only did he not show a trace of joy, but he also wanted to keep improving. This kind of stability is really not what a young man can have!
At this moment, Wan Sanqian admired Wang Yu even more!
"Brother-in-law, isn't this enough? Look at this beautiful candy, it's as white as snow. I want to take a bite right now." Li Fei heard that Wang Yu was not satisfied with the finished product of the white candy. He was a little puzzled and stood aside.
He said with a greedy look.
Is this also called snow white?
Wang Yu shook his head!
But then I thought about it, Li Fei had never seen white sugar before. All he had seen was yellow and black brown sugar. Now that he saw the semi-finished product, he naturally felt that it was perfect.
Therefore, after seeing Li Fei's eagerness to give it a try, Wang Yu relented and said, "Since Brother Fei likes it, let's take a bite."
"Thank you, brother-in-law!"
When Li Fei heard this, he immediately smiled at Wang Yu, then hurriedly pinched a little bit and put it in his mouth, saying with endless aftertaste: "Brother-in-law, this sugar is so sweet, it is the sweetest thing Fei'er has ever tasted in his life.
”
After saying this, Li Fei couldn't help but start to think about it.
"Young Master, this... this." After Wan Sanqian saw Li Fei's expression, he immediately moved his index finger. He had no choice but to see the sugar in front of him, which was a rare thing, and he also wanted to try it.
"You don't have to be so polite, Sister Bing'er, Sister Xiang'er, Achu, you all will eat too!"
Seeing that Wang Yu agreed, Bai Bing, Li Xiang and Chu Qiao also pinched a little and put it in their mouths, but the three of them had different feelings!
It was the first time for Bai Bing and Li Xiang to eat it, and they felt almost the same as Wan San Qian. However, Chu Qiao had eaten it n times in later generations, so she could naturally feel the difference.
"Young Master is exactly what you said. This white sugar should be considered a semi-finished product. There are still some other flavors in it. Although it is much better than the current brown sugar, it does not have an absolute advantage. It should be sweeter!" Chu Qiao commented!
"Miss Chu is right!" Wan Sanqian quickly boasted. Although Chu Qiao looked like a little baby, he would not underestimate her because of this.
The position of this girl in the heart of the young master is not simple, otherwise he would not have brought her here. He even said this without any expression, but instead made himself purified again!
In this way, under the communication between Wang Yu, Chu Qiao, and Wan Sanqian, in the evening, the three of them finally made a bowl of sugar that was quite satisfactory.
"Young Master, we are finally done. With the power of our Wang family, and relying on this sugar-making technology, we will definitely be able to control the entire Bingzhou sugar industry, and then sweep the world, bringing countless wealth to the Young Master!"
Wan Sanqian has always been very clear about his position, that is, as a retainer of the Wang family. Only when the Wang family becomes bigger and stronger will his status become higher and higher.
And now, the young master specifically asked himself to participate in the production, not just to cultivate himself and to put this emerging sugar industry in his own hands. Faced with Wang Yu's fancy, he could only swear allegiance to this path.
"Now that the white sugar has been produced, you should prepare the three thousand as soon as possible. You must first make a name for yourself in Bingzhou, and then spread the white sugar to Luoyang, Yingchuan, and finally spread throughout the world!"
"However, the technology of making white sugar must not be passed on to others. If it is boiled, it doesn't matter, as long as it is a member of the family, but you must pay attention when purifying it. This is a critical step, and only close people can touch it!"
"In addition, this tile must be fired secretly and must not be leaked. Even if it is really impossible to hide it, we must persist for a while!"
Wang Yu knew very well that the method of making white sugar could not be hidden for long. The Han Dynasty has never been short of capable people and craftsmen. There are hundreds of schools of thought and aristocratic families, but no one is a simple person.
What he needs to do now is to try to keep it secret for a period of time. As long as the reputation channels are expanded, even if the secret is really leaked, no one can shake his position.
"What my lord said is absolutely true, but Wan Sanqian dares to ask, since this white sugar came out today, what should I do with the brown sugar at home?" Wan Sanqian asked cautiously!
"Purify all the brown sugar in the family into white sugar, but it doesn't have to be all the way it is now. You can extract 10% or 20% to make semi-finished white sugar, and the price is only half of that of pure white sugar."
"After all, there are also some people who suffer from the cold in Bingzhou. Although these semi-finished products are not as good as pure white sugar, they are much better than the original yellow and black brown sugar."
"However, this alone is not enough. After the white sugar is released, it will definitely cause a sensation, a hundred times more sensational than the soap. We must have enough goods to promote the sugar as quickly as possible."
"Three thousand, do you have a clever trick?" After Wang Yu explained, he suddenly asked Wan Sanqian!
"Lord, I have a way to deal with it!
On the one hand, the original sucrose at home is purified into semi-finished white sugar and pure white sugar!
On the other hand, the caravan will send experts to escort it to the land of Jiaozhou, which has always produced sugar cane, which is juicy and is the most suitable for making sugar, and the quality is much higher than that of grain!"
Wang Yu nodded when he heard this. Ordinary food costs about two hundred yuan per stone. In the Han Dynasty, one stone was equivalent to one hundred and twenty kilograms, that is, two cents per kilogram.
As for sugarcane, due to the long distance from Jiaozhou to Bingzhou, its price is naturally much higher than that of grain, about eight cents per catty!
In other words, eight guan of money can obtain one thousand kilograms of sugar, or at least one hundred kilograms of white sugar can be squeezed out.
The original yellow and black brown sugar is worth one kilogram, so the white sugar squeezed from sugar cane is at least more than ten kilograms per kilogram, which can be linked to gold.
As for the white sugar extracted from grains, the price will be much cheaper. Pure white sugar is about 8 guan per catty, and semi-finished products are 5 guan per catty.
Even if you leave out the cost, it will still be a huge profit!
Wang Yu instantly felt that the horse's hoofs were golden and slowly walked towards him.
"Three thousand, this matter should not be delayed. You go down and prepare. This time, in addition to the escort of the Four Ghosts of Western Hunan, I will also send a master-level warrior and several innate masters to escort you!"
This is an opportunity to make a lot of money, so Wang Yu will naturally do his best. Moreover, this is just a guardian on the surface, Wang Yu will also send people to escort him secretly!
Just when Wang Yu was arranging Wan Sanqian, Chu Qiao immediately made a suggestion: "Sir, if you want to be secretive, I have a way. We can take Wa Liu to make sugar on the spot and bring back the finished product!"<
/p>
"While on the road, you can also sell some. There are many aristocratic families in Jingxiang, and they will definitely be very interested. In this way, you can save some money and do it very secretly."
"Eh!" After hearing Chu Qiao's suggestion, Wang Yu's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he nodded with satisfaction, looked at Wan Sanqian and said: A Chu's suggestion is good, what do you think of Sanqian?"
"Miss Chu's words are very reasonable. Yuzhou and Jingxiang also have property settled by my Wang family. It's great that we can sell it in the land of my Wang family's property. This way it won't waste time and can be spread better!" "Miss Chu has such knowledge at such a young age, which makes Sanqian admire her greatly." Wan Sanqian praised immediately, without any feeling that there was anything wrong!
Chu Qiao on the side blushed a little when she heard Wan Sanqian's praise. This Wan Sanqian was nothing like those in movies and TV shows. Has she been assimilated by the times?
In movies and TV shows, he is not so good at flattering others!
…………
"Three thousand, the matter is settled like this. For this escort, you will select capable generals from the No. 1 Village in the World, plus the Four Ghosts of Western Hunan. In addition, I will also send a grandmaster to escort!"
"What you need to do now is to buy enough tiles as quickly as possible and then go south!" Wang Yu said forcefully, his eyes full of determination.
"Young master, don't worry, Wan Sanqian will do his best to get this done for you." After saying this, Wan Sanqian went to No. 1 Village in the World to prepare.
Seeing Wan Sanqian's leaving figure, Wang Yu nodded, having a capable subordinate is so neat!
After bidding farewell to Li Xiang and Bai Bing, Wang Yu prepared to summon again, and this time, he planned to use a special summoning card to directly specify the business field.
Just one thirteen thousand seems to be not enough. This time the thirteen thousand has to go south to Jiaozhou, and others must stay in Bingzhou!
"System, use the special summon card to specify business attributes!"
[Okay, the special summons begins...]
[Ding dong, summon the first person, red-top businessman, Hu Xueyan, business: 98;]
Hu Xueyan, whose real name is Hu Guangyong, whose childhood name was Shunguan and whose courtesy name was Xueyan, was born in Jixi, Huizhou, Anhui Province. He moved to Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province at the age of 13. He is a famous red-top businessman, politician and representative figure of Huizhou merchants in modern China.
It can be said that he was not only a businessman, but also a politician, because he dared to make a desperate move to help Zuo Zongtang develop and grow. He was also good at combining government and business, was good at business strategies, and was good at winning people's hearts, leaving behind
Endless romantic words.
However, due to the limitations of the times, Hu Xueyan's property was subject to competition for withdrawals and extortion by bureaucrats from all over the country, resulting in capital turnover failure. Also, because of the squeeze from foreign businessmen, Hu Xueyan was forced to sell it at a low price, losing half of his assets.
In the end, when Hu Xueyan lost his backer Zuo Zongtang, he was dismissed from his post and his family property was confiscated, and he died in depression. The tragic ending of collapse and collapse can't help but make people think deeply.
The first person to appear is a gold-level business master. I wonder what the capabilities of the following ones are!
[Ding dong, summoning the second person, Deng Tong of the Western Han Dynasty, Commerce: 93;]
Deng Tong, a favorite of Emperor Wen of the Western Han Dynasty, relied on his special relationship with Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty to monopolize the money-making industry at that time, opened up copper mines extensively, and became richest in the world.
After Han Jing Emperor Liu Qi came to the throne, Deng Tong began to fall out of favor and his family wealth was taken away.
Although Deng Tong had such wealth because of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, he would not have been able to achieve this if he did not live up to his expectations. After all, those ministers were not just freeloaders.
