The spice business is not easy to do. You have to go to Nanyang to see the market in person. If you can successfully transport the spices back, the commercial tax will be taken away by the Shipping Department, and the rest will be your own profits.
Sun Houpu went back and told Mr. Sun what Liang Chuan was thinking. The old man was so angry that his blood pressure shot up, his vision went dark and he fainted. The doctor checked and found that it was either a stroke or an ordinary syncope.
Although the old man has also heard that white sugar is very valuable, the Taobao store Zheng Ruoying opened in Qingyuan back then was as famous as the Wanda Chamber of Commerce opposite. The goods sold were all extremely valuable. As long as outsiders could grab them in the Taobao store, If you resell some white sugar at a store in the city, you can make 30% of the money!
The yield of white sugar is too low!
At that time, Taobao stores only sold more than a thousand kilograms of white sugar on the market every year, leaving some for the father-in-laws of Bianjing City to buy. To put it bluntly, even people in the imperial palace were rare for this treasure. What's the use of more than a thousand kilograms? If a few people share one point, it's almost gone. Without production, there will be no sales, so the Taobao store closed down after Zheng Ruoying left.
Fengshan Township has begun to expand the production of sugar cane in the township since Liang Chuan disappeared at sea. After all, Liang Chuan taught Yi Niang the process of making sugar before he disappeared. The process is not complicated. Although it is a bit more painful than burning charcoal, it is profitable. It’s more than a hundred times the money!
The businessman's intuition is keen. Even Sun Houpu passed by Fengshan and saw that the output of sugar cane was increasing. He wanted to run this business, but there was a bright future in sugar.
The old man didn't taste the sweetness and didn't know the secret. He only knew how to guard those tea mountains and do the shameful thing.
Although Xia Xue was not happy, Sun Houpu went back and knelt on the floor for a long time, and explained the stakes to Xia Xue again. The most highlighted point was that all the painstaking efforts were for his father. What he said made Xia Xue feel overwhelmed. , only then did the girl’s anger go away.
The Sun family did not stop. The old man and Mrs. Xu were at home all day and night scolding Sun Houpu for eating everything inside and outside. Xia Xue and the others did not dare to scold, so they turned to scold Liang Chuan. At this time, Liang Chuan had cut off their way out. This trick is so poisonous!
They say that this kid Liang Chuan is vicious. In the past, he built his family by tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall through deceit and deceit. He is still a tiger-fighting hero. This is simply shameless!
Despite the scolding, Mr. Sun had nothing to do with him. All the land deeds of the Sun family were in his hands, and it was Xia Xue who personally came to him to take them away. The hills where tea could not be sold were no better than barren hills.
The tea mountains of the imperial court are registered. For example, the several acres of tea gardens opened by Liang Chuan in Fengshan and the tea gardens of the Sun family in Changkeng are all tea from private fields. They have not been taxed through the market, so they cannot be circulated normally. on the market.
After calculation, the Sun family's tea mountain was barely worth more than a hundred thousand guan. . Moreover, Liang Chuan had already offered a high price and made huge concessions.
Sun Houcai had to be given some start-up capital so that he could start the sugar business.
The money was quickly delivered to the Sun family. Originally, Sun Houpu had to give a share of the money, but Sun Houpu knew Xu's expression without looking. If he divided the money at this time, there would definitely be an uproar!
After Liang Chuan got the land deed, he went to Weiyuan Building to register it, and tens of thousands of acres of tea mountains fell into his hands without any effort.
After getting the land, Liang Chuan approached Xia Xue again and told Xia Xue his purpose again!
Liang Chuan wanted to build an Anjifang nursing home in Qingyuan but also missed three Zeyuan charities!
After the First World War in Qingyuan, the people of Qingyuan City were in dire straits, and there were many broken families in the city. Although Duan Peng worked hard to restore people's livelihood, there were still many more homeless people on the streets. If this continues, the security of the city will definitely decline. For a city that desperately needs a business environment, this is not a good thing.
Originally, according to Liang Chuan's idea, he wanted to set up Anjifang and several other institutions in Xinghua, which is his hometown and there are a large number of fellow villagers there. Later, after many considerations, Liang Chuan rejected such an idea.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
The purpose of establishing Anjifang is to relieve emergencies rather than the poor. The poor and suffering masses in Xinghua have their own ways of getting rid of poverty. What they need is to create employment opportunities and give the people of this land a chance to survive. This is the only way to achieve long-term success. count.
Qingyuan is different. To put it bluntly, if you don't have any skills and have physical problems, then you have to wait for death. There is almost no land for them to cultivate outside the city. Most of them are paddy fields soaked in seawater, and they can't produce any food at all.
To accomplish this major event, a large amount of capital investment is necessary.
Liang Chuan originally wanted to squeeze out some money from the port fee adjustment to support the construction of three welfare homes.
But Penghu Island is currently under construction in full swing. The money spent on the island every day is like running water. Su Wei's daily reimbursement list is as high as a mountain. Fortunately, he is busy enough to calculate every expense clearly. In vain, compressed within the range that one can bear.
Since I came to Qingyuan, I haven't transported money back to Xinghua for a long time. It’s not that I don’t want to or can’t bear to part with the money, but the expenses in various places are so huge that I can’t save any money at all!
The construction of Penghu Island is a top priority. After this period of time passes, there may be some spare money.
However, the three welfare institutions, like the Tsinghua Academy built by Liang Chuan in Fengshan, Xinghua, are not temporary, but welfare institutions that will exist for a long time! It is obviously unrealistic to rely solely on savings to maintain it.
After the three institutions are established, they will not only absorb homeless people in Qingyuan, but also the entire southeast region. If anyone is willing to come to Fujian Road, they will be accepted!
This was no small project. The welfare home in Bianjing City was now able to operate normally. It was only because Chen Xichun came forward and Xia Song was the backing. Chen Xichun is now an imperial concubine. As Concubine Chen's political achievement project, the three welfare homes have received strong support from Zhao Zhen. She needs money and people, and all resources are given priority. In this way, the three institutions are still normal. Running.
When Concubine Chen is not around, Liang Chuan believes that these three institutions must be a different scene!
The three organizations in Qingyuan have no official background. There may be more or less Xia Xue's involvement later, but there will definitely not be official support.
Giving porridge was a common thing in ancient times, but it has always been proved that if the porridge is given for a long time, it will only breed a group of rice worms, and the people who deserve to be poor will remain poor, and the miserable life will not change.
After all the trouble, Liang Chuan could only wrong the Sun family. Since he wanted to make Xia Xue, the Sun family's daughter-in-law, it shouldn't be too much to use their family's resources. .
After Liang Chuan thought about this idea thoroughly, he told Xia Xue the whole idea. Xia Xue had participated in Anjifang in Bianjing City, and she knew best the hardships and sacrifices involved! Liang Chuan took their tea mountain and used it on the common people. After all the calculations, Liang Chuan paid for all the hundreds of thousands of dollars in it. This is a lot of money! Liang Chuan has made such a big sacrifice for this kind of charity, so what other reason can she have to refuse!
Liang Chuan put so much effort into arranging such a big project for Xia Xue. One of the reasons was for Xia Xue's own reputation and to build momentum for Xia Song outside. Another important reason was that he didn't want Xia Xue to follow Sun Houpu to Nanyang. !
Xia Xue's identity is so special. If the Japanese knew that Xia Song's daughter was at sea, they would definitely go crazy and try to snatch her away!
The social security in Nanyang is not peaceful either. There is no government at all. Whoever has a bigger fist will be justified. It's okay for Sun Houpu to take people there, but it will be too hard to take care of Xia Xue. Instead of doing this, it is better to let this The girl stayed in Qingyuan, with a large group of people covering her behind!
Xia Song asked Sun Houpu to look after Xia Xue in name, but in fact he was not the one who contributed. If something unexpected happened, Xia Song would definitely not be able to spare him!
Xia Xue took the gifts she received from the Sun family and took Sun Houpu to a pawn shop in the city to exchange them all for cash. She then asked Shitou to send someone back to Bianjing to transfer the money. Xia Xue owned a large pharmacy in Bianjing. Shares can give you a lot of money in a year.
Charity requires a lot of funds, so Xia Xue plans to use her own money to start it!
Liang Chuan is preparing to go to Changkeng for a walk. Chashan will take over and have to figure out how to operate it so that Chashan can start a profit model!
Just as we were about to set off here, bad news suddenly came from Shitou. Something happened to the Zheng family in Xinghua!
Shitou was already on his way back, leaving only a note and saying nothing more. The note said that a group of people went to Xinghua to rob their Zheng family, and that Zheng Zuliang was a cautious person and hid himself if there was any movement at home. It was nothing serious!
When the news reached the port office, even Su Wei was shocked and exclaimed: "What age are there still people who are so bold and brave that they dare to openly break into houses and rob them? My boss, I remember that you killed several robbers in Xinghua. Why is there still a fish slipping through the net!”
Knowing that Su Wei was making fun of himself, Liang Chuan still responded: "I don't know what the situation is now. It's best to go to Xinghua and have a look!"
"Bring more manpower and bring the Four King Kongs over. If necessary, send a message back. I will carry the truth over there. What bullshit bandits are there? They are tired of living!"
"It stands to reason that it's impossible. In the past few years, Xinghua has been under Duan Peng's rule. Not to mention robbers, there aren't even chicken thieves. I'm worried..."
"Are you worried that you are a party member..."
"You still know what I'm thinking!"
"I'm afraid it's possible that Zheng Zuliang used the pseudonym Zheng Hao and deceived the party members to the point where he almost had to wear his pants to survive. He might not be able to get over it for decades. If I knew about Zheng Zuliang's deep hatred, As a person, I will not let him go either..."
