Chen Hetu took a deep breath, calmed down his impetuous but excited mood, and said quickly: "Since yesterday, we have received a total of more than 650 orders."
"Among them, there are as many as 40 orders for more than one hundred thousand taels of silver; there are as many as 60 orders for more than 50,000 taels of silver; and there are more than 150 orders for more than 10,000 taels of silver."
"In addition, there are orders of all sizes, about four hundred orders."
"I was really busy yesterday. My feet couldn't touch the ground, I couldn't stop talking, and I kept seeing people. I don't see many of these businessmen in Xianyang City on weekdays, but yesterday they all came out, like crazy, as if they smelled blood. All the jackals pounced on me."
"It's so shocking."
Chen Hetu's face was filled with joy, but the pride on his face could not be suppressed.
He continued: "After counting all the orders, the total amount of yesterday's orders was nearly ten million taels of silver. Admittedly, it takes a long time to pay for all the ordered goods."
"However, when extrapolated, this amount is too terrifying. Because when the order is placed, it is scheduled to pay 20%. So yesterday, we received two million taels of silver."
"Originally, I thought that Xifeng Zui was expensive. If such a drink is brewed, even if it is a peerless wine, not many people would buy it. No one expected that they would receive so much money."
"I admire Mr. Lin for his great talent."
Chen Hetu clasped his hands together again and bowed respectfully to Lin Feng.
A deposit of two million taels of silver.
An order worth tens of millions of taels.
It’s scary to think about.
You must know the finances of the Qin State. Part of the taxes are deducted from grain. The actual money and taxes collected cannot reach two million taels of silver a year.
Right now, there are so many.
Lin Feng could understand Chen Hetu's excitement when he saw it. He chuckled and said, "Master Chen, you don't have to be so excited. On the one hand, these ten million taels of silver need to be purchased from Xia and Jin. food."
"At the same time, we need to purchase a large amount of wine for distillation and purification. In addition, in order to supply Xifengzu, we need to expand the scale of purification and increase manpower. At the same time, we also start to make distiller's yeast and develop distiller's yeast to make wine."
"In the past few days, I have also talked with you about the brewing of jiuqu, the expansion of the wine cellar, and the selection of suitable mountain spring water. All these things cost money."
"So after a large-scale consumption of money, I'm afraid there won't be much deposit left in your hand. Although you can make money, the situation is just now unfolding, and everything requires money."
Lin Feng said: "If you want to make money on a large scale, you can only achieve it if everything is on track."
Chen Hetu couldn't hide his excitement and said: "Master Lin regards money as dung, and he doesn't care about it. But I am different. I have been working in the household department all year round, and I often worry about money. Unexpectedly, I made money all at once. So much money."
Lin Feng said: "You have to remember that you can't make much money, especially ordinary people's money. To make money, you need to make money from powerful people, tycoons, and rich people."
"For example, when news about Xifengzui spread out about Yuanyang House, the first thing that happened was that all the brothels in Xianyang wanted to order drinks."
"These brothels are all selling gold, and they make countless money every day. The brothels are very rich, and they need Xifeng Zui, so they will definitely book in large quantities. This is the source of the large orders."
"Second, the big businessmen from various countries, such as Jin, Qi, and even Xia and Yan in the north, all need Xifeng Zui. After all, when good wine appears, no one will dislike it, so they are booking large orders again."
"Thirdly, there are many wine businesses in Qin. When these businessmen hear the news, they will also make large-scale reservations. In short, they go down one level at a time. In addition, aristocratic families and other wealthy families also need wine."
"So they're all rich people."
"These people are the ones who are truly as rich as the country. To put it bluntly, even though the emperor is sitting in the Qin Dynasty, the treasury is empty, and they are not as rich as these people."
Lin Feng said: "Once you figure this out, you won't feel weird. Everything will be logical."
Chen Hetu said: "What Mr. Lin said is true."
Lin Feng said: "The more money you handle, the more cautious and attentive you must be. If you don't have any career ambitions, you can just muddle along in charge of Xifengzui. If you want to become a minister, Xifengzui Your business is your excellent resume, so do your best."
"I will keep Mr. Lin's teachings in mind."
Chen Hetu was now more and more respectful to Lin Feng, and he was filled with admiration in his heart.
Lin Feng said: "Go and get busy."
Chen Hetu did not leave, however, and said: "Mr. Lin, this matter needs to be reported to Your Majesty, so I ask Mr. Lin to report this matter as soon as possible so that Your Majesty will know about it."
Lin Feng glanced at Chen Hetu and said, "I won't be involved in this matter. I'll leave it to you."
"ah!"
Chen Hetu exclaimed.
Somewhat surprised.
Xifengzui made a lot of money, which was a huge achievement, and it would definitely be an excellent opportunity to get the emperor's approval.
Lin Feng actually refused to go.
Chen Hetu said with some trembling: "Mr. Lin, it is most appropriate for you to go. After all, I am assisting."
Lin Feng said: "You are the supervisor of all Xifeng Zui, and you are responsible for the orders. I am just providing a little help. Go ahead and tell your majesty that I asked you to go. No one dares to say anything. "
Chen Hetu was moved when he heard this.
Lin Feng is so kind and righteous.
He bowed again, especially to the end, and said with some trembling, "Thank you, Mr. Lin."
Lin Feng said: "Go and do your work well."
Chen Hetu turned around and left.
Lin Feng looked at Chen Hetu's leaving figure with a smile on his lips. Chen Hetu can endure hardships and has a good nature, so Lin Feng is willing to cultivate him more.
Besides, there was still a fig leaf between him and the emperor for the time being, so there was no need to go there in person.
After Chen Hetu left the Lin family, he first went back to Xifengzui's shop, reorganized the sales materials, wrote a memorial, and then took a carriage to the palace.
When he arrived outside the imperial city, he reported directly. When the news reached the palace, Ying Jiuxiao got the news and ordered someone to summon Chen Hetu to see him. Chen Hetu was able to attend court meetings in the past, but he always watched from afar.
You can only roughly see what the emperor looks like.
Now, we have arrived at the main hall.
Chen Hetu's heart was filled with emotion. He clasped his hands together, bowed respectfully, and solemnly said: "My lord, Chen Hetu, pays homage to Your Majesty."
Ying Jiuxiao nodded and said: "Pingshen."
Chen Hetu said: "Your Majesty, the sales of Xifeng Zui started yesterday and came to an end at nearly noon this morning. Although there are still people coming to make reservations, they are sparse and not too many. Now there are statistics Please read the data, Your Majesty."
Chen Hetu took out the memorial and held it in his hand.
Wang Shun, the general manager of the department, took the memorial from Chen Hetu and placed it in front of Ying Jiuxiao.
Ying Jiuxiao looked calm. He felt that although this matter would be popular, it would not make too much money, so he looked down carefully with a normal mind.
But when Ying Jiuxiao looked at it, his eyes widened.
The total order amount is tens of millions of taels of silver.
The deposit is two million taels of silver.
This is the money received.
Gudong!
Ying Jiuxiao swallowed, and his heart was already filled with turmoil.
According to the agreement with Lin Feng in the past, Da Qin accounted for 90%, so Da Qin collected a deposit of 1.8 million taels of silver and harvested 9 million taels of silver.
This is horrible.
Even this has exceeded Da Qin's finance, at least for several years.
how could it be possible?
Ying Jiuxiao's heart was greatly shocked, and he thought it was impossible no matter what. He took a deep breath, calmed down his impetuous but slightly joyous mood, and asked: "Chen Hetu, is this serious?"
Chen Hetu said: "Reporting to your Majesty, this matter is absolutely true. If there is any falsehood, I am willing to drop my head. This matter is also what Mr. Lin specially asked me to report."
He said this specifically.
After all, Lin Feng was responsible for this matter, and he could easily be criticized for exceeding his authority to report. In the officialdom, those who exceed their authority to report are easily tabooed by superior officials, so Chen Hetu specifically points it out.
Ying Jiuxiao nodded, feeling more comfortable than ever before. It felt like drinking cold water from a deep well on a June day. One sip was so refreshing that my heart felt so comfortable.
Two million!
This is real money making.
"Okay, okay, okay!"
Ying Jiuxiao applauded again and again, and the joy on his face was beyond words.
Chen Hetu took the initiative and said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Lin said that although we have received a deposit of two million taels now, but next, we need to expand the workshop, recruit people to work, purchase food, purchase wine for purification and distillation, and more Make wine."
"So the deposit of two million taels is estimated to not have much money left. Once everything is on track, we can continue to make money and provide financial resources for the court."
Ying Jiuxiao smiled and said, "I will not misappropriate the money earned by Xifeng Zui without authorization. Everything is on track."
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Chen Hetu breathed a sigh of relief.
He was originally from the officialdom and knew many operations in the officialdom. He also knew that it was extremely normal for the imperial court to misappropriate money. He hurriedly brought it up because he was worried that the emperor would be happy and mobilize money to do other things, causing problems with Xifengzui.
Ying Jiuxiao said: "Go down and do your job well. Since Lin Feng recognizes you, this is your chance. I will not hesitate to reward you for running Xifengzui well."
"I will live up to your majesty."
Chen Hetu bowed again.
He was extremely excited. With Xifengzui's achievements this time, as long as everything in Xifengzui is on the right track and everything goes well, he will definitely be able to step into the position of Minister in the future.
This is his chance.
After Chen Hetu retired, Ying Jiuxiao's inner joy was still beyond words, and she was extremely excited.
Da Qin’s financial problem was solved.
With West Wind Druid, there will be no financial crisis in the next few years. Even if something goes wrong in the future, Xifengzui won't be able to make money that well, but isn't there still Lin Feng?
When Ying Jiuxiao was happy, Ying San came again, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, I just received the news. There are people in Qi and Jin wooing Lin Feng."
brush!
Ying Jiuxiao's expression suddenly changed.
My mood suddenly collapsed.
From Ying Jiuxiao's point of view, Lin Feng was the hope of Da Qin Dong's success. He was like a rebel and would not allow anyone to poach him.
Qi and Jin are simply looking for death.
Ying Jiuxiao said: "What did Lin Feng say?"
Ying San said: "Lin Feng refused, especially Lin Feng and Qi State, who were a little unhappy. As for Jin State, Xie Xuan had a very harmonious relationship with Lin Feng when he went to visit. Although Lin Feng refused, Xie Xuan It’s better to invite Lin Feng to visit Jin Kingdom.”
Ying Jiuxiao snorted and said disdainfully: "People in the Jin Kingdom are all obsessed with pleasure, so how can they have anything to look at? Lin Feng refused well. If we want to attack the Xia Kingdom, only I, the Qin Dynasty, have hope. Keep an eye on me. With the people of Qi and Jin, they are just trying to win over Lin Feng, that's all. If they want to harm Lin Feng, they will be killed without mercy."
Ying San thought for a while and asked, "Your Majesty, what if Lin Feng is persuaded and is moved?"
"fart!"
Ying Jiuxiao immediately cursed.
He widened his eyes, flicked his sleeves, and said forcefully: "What Qi can give, I, Da Qin, can give. What Jin does not have, I, Da Qin, have. Only I, Da Qin, can avenge Lin Feng and support unconditionally. What's more, Lin Feng is my grandson-in-law, and his status in Great Qin is quite transcendent. What did he do when he left Great Qin?"
After Ying San heard this, he hesitated to speak.
Ying Jiuxiao said: "What else is there?"
Ying San said: "People from Qi and Jin all mentioned the issue of the crown prince of Great Qin. They said that His Majesty was wise and mighty, but the crown prince was tyrannical and not the most suitable successor. They all said that Great Qin has no future."
Ying Jiuxiao's face became even more gloomy, and he clenched his fists.
The prince Ying Qi is indeed cruel.
Even, unscrupulously.
Ying Jiuxiao was very fond of Ying Qi in the early years, because in those early years Ying Qi was down-to-earth. But gradually, I don’t know when it started, Ying Qi changed. He became fond of luxury and acted more cruelly.
Ying Jiuxiao was also quite unhappy in his heart.
Especially when it comes to Lin Feng, Ying Qi targets Lin Feng, and Ying Jiuxiao hates the fact that iron cannot become steel. He tried his best to win over Lin Feng, hoping that Lin Feng would recognize Da Qin and stay in Da Qin.
But Yingqi here is trying his best to push people away, which is simply a bastard.
Ying Jiuxiao's eyes were deep and he said calmly: "I will solve this matter myself."
Ying San said no more, bowed and retreated.
After Ying Jiuxiao was silent for a moment, he ordered someone to summon Wang Tang into the palace. After Wang Tang entered, Ying Jiuxiao told about the sale of Xifeng Zui, and then took Wang Tang straight out of the palace and went to Lin Feng's house.
I have to thank Lin Feng.
Lin Feng played an important role in Xifeng Zui's incident.
