Qin Xiaofu has always been with Qin Feng, rarely leaving him for so long. Qin Feng missed him very much, but when he found Qin Xiaofu hugging his thigh and rubbing against him, Qin Feng couldn't help but feel disgusted and quickly pushed this guy away. Open it, lest others misunderstand that you are good at Long Yang and have an affair with this guy.
"How is the business going on this journey north?"
When the master and servant reunited after a long separation, they did not exchange any greetings. Instead, they asked about business first. Qin Xiaofu felt sad for a while, like a resentful woman: "Master, am I so insignificant in your heart?"
Feeling Qin Xiaofu's resentful look, Qin Feng couldn't help but spit: "Stop doing this! You guys have received a lot of kickbacks."
Qin Xiaofu was stunned at first, and then his face turned red. He thought that the young master had seen him so clearly, and immediately said in embarrassment: "It's not... not much. I won't touch even a penny of the interests of Qin's firm." . Any money that harms the interests of Qin's firm is not interested in Xiao Xiao. Any money that goes into Xiao's pocket is beneficial to the development of Qin's firm."
Qin Feng did not doubt this. After all, when doing business with an open door, being too 'upright' would be detrimental to the expansion of business routes. Occasionally going through the back door and accepting small bribes can promote business development. This is why Qin Feng has always turned a blind eye to Qin Xiaofu's " enriching his own pockets ".
Besides, Jin Yiwei was watching. If Qin Xiaofu had really done anything to harm Qin's business, Jin Yiwei would have reported it to Qin Feng.
"Master, according to your instructions, the candy business of Qin's Company has taken root in the south of the Yangtze River. In the Jiangnan area alone, thirteen candy shops have been opened. This time, all the way north, all major counties with a population of more than 100,000 are open. Opened branches in the county. Today there are more than fifty candy shops.”
"In addition, the thirty-six counties in Kyoto are negotiating. If everything goes well, thirty-six more shops will be added soon."
Qin Feng nodded, very satisfied with Qin Xiaofu's efficiency.
As for the candy shop in Kyoto, Qin Feng planned to leave it vacant directly to prevent Emperor Liang from grabbing profits again. Moreover, the stall in Kyoto was too large, which would not be conducive to Qin Feng's transfer of assets in the future. After all, the business of 'Liu Lifang' had always been a worry for Qin Feng. As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, he will be afraid of well ropes for ten years.
Liu Hongyan on the side took out her account book and asked Qin Xiaofu to report the accounts.
Qin Xiaofu directly took out a simple report form from his arms, stood in the center of the lobby, and read it in front of everyone in the Qin family: "Today, thirty-five of the fifty candy shops of Qin's business have begun to make profits, and the closer they are, the more profitable they are." For candy shops in Jiangnan, the earlier they make profits, the higher their profits will be."
"Since the candy shop started operating, the daily profit for a single room has been 200 taels of silver, and for thirty-five shops, it has been 7,000 taels of silver. To date, the total revenue has been 120,000 taels of silver."
Originally, the Qin family had a mediocre response to the candy store's profitability.
After all, 'two hundred taels' of silver, considering the consumption level in Kyoto, is simply a drop in the bucket and not worth mentioning.
But when they heard the total profits of all the candy shops, everyone's expressions changed drastically.
Qin Tianhu frowned and his eyes were filled with disbelief: "We received seven thousand taels in a single day, we were in business for more than ten days, and we received 120,000 taels of silver? Isn't this profit a little too high?"
Although Qin Tianhu is not good at business, he knows basic arithmetic. If he spreads candies in the thirty-six counties of Kyoto.
The amount of money deposited into the account in a single day can reach the level of 10,000 taels, and in a month it will be 300,000 taels of silver! It’s already close to Qin Tianhu’s annual salary!
Liu Hongyan had a general understanding of the candy industry, but she was still shocked when she learned the total profit from candy.
"How could it be recorded so quickly? At this level, it can already wipe out the expenses of Beixi County."
"I never imagined that the benefits of a small piece of candy could be so high!"
Shen Qingci wanders around the literati circle all day long, and knows much about the situation in the literati circle than others.
"As early as a few days ago, candies had begun to flow into Kyoto. The literati in Kyoto often sent people to buy them from other places. The local price was one tael of silver each, and after adding in the price difference, the literati's hands were worth about one, two, or three cents. Even here, demand exceeds supply.”
"It is said that the literati circle in Kyoto has listed candy as the third standard product after tea and wine. Especially these days, candy shops are getting closer and closer to Kyoto, and buying candies is much more convenient. Many literati have banquets Candies are indispensable on the table for guests, and they have become a status symbol.”
"And... not only the literati circle, but also the rich and powerful, have a huge demand for candies."
After hearing Shen Qingci's explanation, everyone was full of unlimited expectations for the 'future of candy'.
As the 'inventor' of candy, Qin Feng is not as happy as others.
Jing Qianying was the first to notice that something was wrong with Qin Feng's face, so she asked in a low voice: "Feng'er, why can't you be happy about making money from candy?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present looked at Qin Feng with doubts.
Qin Feng sighed lightly and said with a wry smile: "This candy... is a trick after all."
Strange skills? !
how come?
No one expected that Qin Feng would reduce the candy to worthless. After all, this is a daily income-earning business, and the entire Daliang, and even the entire world, belongs to the Qin family. Just by selling candy, the Qin family can become a wealthy businessman who is proud of the world.
No one would mind having too much money, and Qin Feng is no exception.
It's natural to be happy when you make money, but this kind of happiness is not the kind that makes Qin Feng happy physically and mentally, but a superficial joy.
"If candy is priced at a low price, it cannot make a profit. If the price is high, it is ultimately a luxury product among literati and nobles. No matter how developed the candy industry is, it will not help the prosperity of Daliang."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent for a while.
However, Qin Tianhu's eyes were slightly bright, and he couldn't help but feel proud on his face. Qin Tianhu was very relieved that Qin Feng could consider the people of Daliang instead of falling into the eyes of money.
The smile on Qin Feng's face became duller: "No matter how rich the Qin family is, it is only temporary. Only when the people of Liang are rich and the country is strong can the Qin family's wealth be long-lasting. A weak country but a strong individual is the tragedy of the whole world. A strong country but He may be weak, but he can still stand tall.”
"After all, this candy is just a springboard for the Qin family. The real future of the Qin family lies in people's livelihood, not pure profit-making."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Qin family looked at him with burning eyes.
They don't understand Qin Feng's overly advanced business experience, but they understand that Qin Feng's existence is a blessing for the entire Daliang...
