To be honest, the tobacco business is really not feasible for the time being.
Mainly because the current audience is full, and there are only two people, Xiao Han and Liu Hongji.
Therefore, if he really wants to start this business, Xiao Han must first think of how to sell this tobacco and how to get more people to join the ranks of smokers!
It just so happened that during this period, so many idle scoundrels were sent out to sea, and the smoky atmosphere in Guangzhou was completely reversed for a while. Now it has almost reached the point where people don't pick up things on the road and don't close their doors at night.
No matter whether it was the local government or the municipal shipping department, nothing happened, which was enough for Xiao Han to devote his energy to this emerging industry.
First find Yang Kailue and ask him to quickly find some good paper from other places and bring it back.
Xiao Han didn't forget to ask for clean paper by calling his name! Definitely don’t want those papers with urine, blood, or other weird things added to them!
After the purchased paper arrived, the Gupu tribesmen were hired to bake the collected tobacco with wood from the mountains and roll it into the shape of later cigarettes. As for the cigarette holder, a natural sponge salvaged by nearby fishermen was used.
Fortunately, Guangzhou is close to the sea, and there are a lot of things like sponges. In the past, they were pushed to the beach by the waves, and they were worthless here and there! Otherwise, it would be difficult to even make a filter. After a lot of hard work, you would have to go back to the age of smoking dry cigarettes.
At noon that day, on the top floor of Jufu Tower
Xiao Han, who was wearing a green gown, sat at the table. He skillfully opened the wooden box placed on the table, took out a cigarette from it, put it under his nose and smelled it, and then threw it aside to the patient who had been waiting for a long time. Patient Liu Hongji: "Look, it's freshly baked. What do you think?"
Liu Hongji stretched out his hand to fish it up in the air, took the cigarette steadily, then pinched it with his carrot-thick fingers and looked up and down. His brows suddenly frowned: "Isn't this little thing too thin? It will be gone in two puffs. ? How can it be as enjoyable as those rough ones?!"
"Is it so thick?" Xiao Han, who was still holding his neck, waiting to be praised, heard this, and his straight back immediately collapsed.
Cigarettes made by Liu Hongji?
Good guys, each one is thicker than his thumb! It’s longer than a writing brush! It is estimated that if you take three pills, you will get lung cancer if you don't choke to death!
Please, he did this to make money, not to kill anyone!
"You know what the heck! How long do you have to let people smoke such thick cigarettes? Make them more detailed and let people buy more? Can't we charge more?"
He didn’t want to explain to Liu Hongji that this thing was actually poisonous, because with his brain, he couldn’t understand what kind of poison there was in the world, and that he could eat it for decades without poisoning anyone! Therefore, in order to avoid wasting words, Xiao Han could only refute it on the grounds of making money by doing business.
"That's right! Why didn't I think of it? You're the one who cheated on me when doing business!" Liu Hongji had no doubts about Xiao Han's words, and his eyes lit up when he heard this! He slapped his forehead hard, grinned, and asked Xiao Han excitedly: "Then how much do you think we can sell this box of cigarettes for? I think it should be twenty cents anyway!"
"What? Twenty coins?"
At this time, Xiao Han had just lit a newly smoked cigarette with a huozhezi. Suddenly, he heard him shouting out the price of twenty cents, and he almost hit his head with a huozhezi! He was so frightened that he quickly put out the fire certificate and glared at Liu Hongji like a prodigal: "The wooden box in my hand cost only five or six cents. You told me that it only cost twenty cents in total?"
"Ahem, twenty cents is not cheap..." Liu Hongji was glared at by Xiao Han, and couldn't help but whispered: "Even if you buy food, twenty cents can buy several kilograms of rice! No matter how expensive it is, Which common people would buy this thing? It doesn't resist hunger and doesn't fill you up. At best, it just makes you feel better when you smoke it."
"Who told you that I was going to sell it to the people?" Xiao Han pointed to the wooden box on the table, glared at Liu Hongji angrily and said, "Do you think ordinary people need this kind of thing? Ordinary people will A whole bag of rice in exchange for a box of small things like this?"
"Oh, I understand! If you don't plan to sell to ordinary people, then who are you going to sell to? Is it possible that you want to sell to those rich people?" After being scolded by Xiao Han, Liu Hongji's elm-headed mind finally understood. ! In an instant, a pair of copper-bell-sized eyes stared brightly: "If you sell it to that mood, it will definitely sell more! Thirty, no! Forty coins! If it's less, we won't sell it!"
"Bang..."
The next second, Xiao Han knocked his head down on the table, and then jumped on the table several times rhythmically, making the dishes rustle.
Brother, you are a general after all. After gritting your teeth for a long time, you shouted out the price of forty cents? How will future generations of village chiefs and village party secretaries view you?
"Always a box of money!"
Xiao Han couldn't discuss business with Liu Hongji, because Xiao Han was afraid that he would make him angry and die young! So after raising his head from the table with difficulty, he simply told the stubborn guy in front of him the price he had already planned.
"What! Always money?"
With a high-pitched scream, the second brother who was about to go upstairs to deliver food was so frightened that he almost slipped and fell down the stairs.
"What are the two grown men in the room doing? Could it be... Amitabha, it's better not to go up and disturb..."
Looking at the door above his head in confusion, the waiter hesitated for a while and then retreated angrily.
If he were to send this up and accidentally see something he shouldn't have seen, would he still want to take this little life?
Outside the house, the second brother slipped away with a tray in his hand.
Inside the room, Liu Hongji was completely shocked, staring straight at Xiao Han without blinking!
Always money, a box?
At his current rate, he would need one box a day! So doesn’t it cost a lot of money in one day? Eat a cow in more than ten days? In one year, all the houses in Chang'an have been demolished?
"Isn't it a bit harsh?" After swallowing hard, Liu Hongji asked Xiao Han cautiously.
"Is this still cruel?" Xiao Han had already lit a cigarette at this time, leaned back comfortably on the chair and started to smoke: "I'm not afraid to tell you, the usual price is just the lowest price! When more people smoke, we will launch more Okay, more high-quality ones! More gimmicks, when the time comes, I'll order him ten dollars a box! Hum hum..."
Xiao Han squinted his eyes in comfort while talking rhetorically. He didn't realize that Liu Hongji was completely petrified on the spot!
Ten thousand dollars?
This is a year's expense for ordinary people. Just buy such a box of cigarettes that can only be used for fire?
"Ahem, Xiao Han, I think we should not do this business!"
After a while, Liu Hongji finally seemed to have decided something. He slowly put down the cigarette that had been brought to his mouth, and then controlled himself to say these words with great will.
He has never doubted Xiao Han's ability to make money! Even if Xiao Han said that he could sell the tobacco in his hand for a thousand dollars, he would believe it!
But the problem is, if you just smoke a pack of cigarettes like this, your family will be ruined and your children and land will be sold! Then he would rather not make this money!
