Lanling Winery sells several types of wine, covering all price ranges.
Compared with Gongyang's wine, the price of wine of the same quality is only one-fifth or even one-tenth!
"Once the newspaper is promoted to all parts of the country, Liang Xiao will not need to rely on any shipping channels at that time. He will be the largest channel..."
Cold sweat broke out on Gongyang Jing's forehead. He wrote a secret letter and turned around to tell his confidants: "Immediately notify my family to adjust the price of wine. All parts of the country will adjust the price of wine. Let us sell as much as we can!"
In the lobby, Liang Xiao was quite satisfied after listening to the report from Bai Qin and others.
The cheapest wine is the most popular. Now is the stage of small profits but quick turnover. After deducting the cost, paying 20% of the wine tax, and handing over 30% of the remaining profit to Duan Yunyi, the profit he can earn per bucket is about 10% of the price of the wine. one part.
The reason why wine is a hugely profitable industry is that it is difficult to lose money.
The price of food and labor has increased, and the price of wine has also increased. Someone has to buy it.
Smart wine merchants will purchase large quantities when food prices are low and brew them in advance. When prices soar, the price of wine will skyrocket, and they can still make a fortune.
The Gongyang family dominates the national liquor industry.
The Dingguo Marquis Mansion also has the support of the Wine Saint, but their wine industry is not easy to expand.
These aristocratic families have been operating all over the country for decades and hundreds of years, and a Dingguo House that has been emerging for 40 years has not been able to shake them.
It's different now.
He is a first-class imperial businessman, and there are newspapers to help promote it, so it is not difficult to expand.
The brewing of this kind of wine does not need to be kept strictly confidential, and it can be safely distributed all over the country.
The wines brewed by Lanling Winery are essentially slightly optimized by Liang Xiao based on modern technology.
Because there was no complete distillation process before, Dazhou's original fine wine was only around ten or twenty degrees in modern times.
After the other shopkeepers left, only Bai Qin stayed to discuss matters.
Liang Xiao smiled and said: "The wine industry is still in its infancy. Even if it is a small loss, we must continue to develop, otherwise we will not be able to defeat the Gongyang family."
Bai Qin smiled and said: "The closure of the wine business of these aristocratic families is just around the corner! The book industry and wine industry are their lifeblood. Once they are replaced by the Marquis, they will only be able to do small business, or even unprofitable!" "
Liang Xiao shook his head: "Old Bai, your idea is still too conservative."
"Conservative?" Bai Qin was puzzled.
You are going to destroy your opponent's pillar industry, why are you still being conservative?
Liang Xiao said: "These big aristocratic families have been around since the Wu Dynasty, and they have been sucking blood for hundreds of years. You can imagine how much wealth they have hidden in their families. What I want is not to see them sitting on their hands, but to take all these." Spit it out!"
Bai Qin took a deep breath, his face full of excitement: "The Marquis said it well! However, these big families are always cautious and will not casually engage in loss-making business."
Liang Xiao couldn't help but laugh: "Then slowly grab their fox tails, and when the time is right, sooner or later give them a fatal blow. These big families don't add up to tens of millions. I won't believe it until my death." At that time, it must be very satisfying and the whole world will celebrate!”
Seeing Liang Xiao's confident look, Bai Qin became even more excited: "Copy him!"
After following Liang Xiao for a long time, he understood more and more that the Marquis never liked doing things that were uncertain.
It is not impossible to overthrow these big families. Back then, Shizu was forced by the situation and only dismissed the left prime minister Dugu Ping.
If it were the emperors of the previous dynasty, it would be possible to confiscate their families and exterminate their clans.
The key is whether there are thousands of scholars behind these aristocratic families, and whether they can stop the public from talking.
One of them is the encroachment of newspapers on the national public opinion position. When these scholars all turn their hearts to the imperial court, these big families will have no choice but to be at the mercy of their masters and marquises.
Even if these Shilin people still firmly support the big family, it doesn't matter!
When books are promoted, more common people will become scholars, enriching the academic circles and scholars of the Zhou Dynasty.
These people were grateful for the kindness of the Lord and the Marquis, and also had the need to break the monopoly of the big family. Naturally, they were oriented toward the emperor.
Liang Xiao's layout was equivalent to a conspiracy, but it left the enemy almost helpless.
As a member of Xuanwei, Bai Qin certainly knew the situation of the nobles in the capital.
Recently, the hostility of the noble family towards Liang Xiao has become deeper and deeper, but no one dares to come forward. At most, the Duanmu family has some personal grudges with Liang Xiao, such as Nangong Ning, Duanmu Yuncheng and so on.
The emperor and the prime minister ended up supporting books. They would never dare to risk the disapproval of the world to criticize Liang Xiao's cheap books.
After Liang Xiao folded the financial report and handed it to Bai Qin, he looked at the rising sun, as if talking to himself.
"I don't have enough manpower now. When the industry expands and more and more talented people are recruited to help, then we can destroy their other hugely profitable industries!"
In the imperial study, Xing Feng came in alone, preparing to negotiate with Duan Yunyi and Zhuge Hui.
"Thanks to the support of the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty, the young people of the two countries have benefited a lot from this exchange meeting. I will report to my emperor when I get back. Dachu will always support your envoys to hold exchange meetings in our country."
Duan Yunyi agreed immediately, but he didn't care in his heart.
Liang Xiao is definitely the best candidate to hold an exchange meeting in Dachu. Unfortunately, the journey is long and the risks are unpredictable.
Her sister couldn't let it go, Zhuge Hui couldn't let it go...she couldn't let it go either.
"In addition, I heard that the output and quality of the government-run salt in Dazhou have recently been different from what it used to be... On behalf of Dachu, I hope to negotiate with Dazhou. Our country will purchase your country's salt at a certain price and ship it back to the country for exclusive sale. ."
Duan Yunyi said: "This matter is not impossible to discuss, but the Dachu side must first ensure that the salt purchased at a low price is not allowed to enter our country. For this reason, the Dazhou side needs to send enough officials to supervise Where to buy salt. Dazhou can guarantee a stable supply of salt."
Xing Feng nodded solemnly: "Of course! Thank you very much to the Emperor of Zhou for your thoughtful consideration. I hope your country can send a representative to Dachu to discuss cooperation with my emperor in detail."
Duan Yunyi was secretly happy and solemnly agreed.
The situation of Dachu is actually similar to that of Bashu, but Dachu has a larger population and a larger territory.
As long as Da Zhou does well, he can earn at least three million taels of silver from Da Chu.
However, the salt administration in Dachu may have earned a little more than before due to the increase in official management and supply of salt and the reduction in price.
The key point is that the Salt Administration of Da Chu will be respected by others, and they will not dare to offend Da Zhou casually in the future.
Either way, Big Week is the winner.
Duan Yunyi knew that Xing Feng came to negotiate with her today, and it had a lot to do with the meeting between him and Liang Xiao last night.
Of course, Dazhou now also needs to maintain a friendly relationship with Dachu and cannot push beyond its limits.
Xing Feng brought up the matter of books again and said: "I hope the Emperor of Zhou can understand our emperor's difficulties. If he can agree, these aristocratic families can fully support the good relations between the two countries in the future."
Duan Yunyi was well prepared and suggested: "You can customize the books from Lanling Bookstore at market prices and send them to China at a higher price, and the Emperor of Da Chu will arrange exclusive sales."
Xing Feng also mentioned that various newspapers in Dachu were customized. As Liang Xiao said, Duan Yunyi claimed that as long as the Prime Minister's Office approved it, Liang Xiao could customize it for them.
Xing Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief, and after thanking him again and again, he solemnly said: "I think the Emperor of Zhou and Prime Minister Zhuge also know that more than half of our country's courtiers do not support the good relations between the two countries. There are heroes like Lanling Hou in Da Zhou, and Da Chu If anyone dares to invade, it is tantamount to self-destruction... I hope your country will pay attention to the south, where there is always the risk of negligence."
Duan Yunyi and Zhuge Hui's eyes were a little more surprised.
Xing Feng's words were unexpected, and he was obviously trying to remind them.
But he is a minister of Chu.
After being surprised, Duan Yunyi felt a little emotional again.
It was that hateful Liang Aiqing who made Xing Feng keep his promise and not allow anyone to live in ruins...
