The group returned to Qingyuan. After Sun Houpu helped Xia Xue arrange several important things in Anjifang, they prepared to go south to Nanyang.
There are several key things in Anjifang, one is the venue, the second is manpower, and the third is materials!
Qingyuan is no different than other places. It just needs an increase in the port. Even though there are too many people, the cost is cheap. According to the income of Liangchuan Sun Houpu and his party, Qingyuan is really a comfortable life.
After a little arrangement, everything that needed to be sorted out was put in place. Sun Houpu's only regret was that he and Xia Xue did not work hard to have a baby. However, there seems to be a phenomenon. It is generally more difficult for wealthy families to have children, especially those who If you want to give birth to a boy, poor people will give birth to them one after another, and they will grow naturally as if they were free-range. There will be more babies than one after the other!
Liang Chuan originally wanted to popularize some physiological knowledge with them, but it seemed inappropriate to talk about it himself. Why did he talk about this? Others were not in a hurry, but he was anxious and angry.
Sun Houpu took Sun Houcai to the port to familiarize himself with the various processes of doing business.
When Sun Houcai saw Liang Chuan, he immediately behaved like a baby. Especially when he saw the few people around Liang Chuan, Sun Shubo and Liang Shiguang, they were so quick when they killed people in Dengzhou, which left a deep impression on him.
After the tea industry was colluded by Liang Chuan and others, Mrs. Xu spent her whole life looking for life and death. She hanged herself at home every day and committed suicide, just putting on a show for her own son. How much does a woman have on her mind? She just wanted to get Houcai's work done and let him go to Sun Houpu to cry and complain. Brotherly love is always more useful than her face. Maybe things will turn around!
But Sun Houpu didn't want to smuggle tea anymore!
He was forced by Mr. Sun to send smuggled tea to the north. He was robbed by the Japanese during his trip. Sun Houcai escaped by hiding in the warehouse and pretending to be dead. In those days, he saw the eyes of mice shining. , so hungry that his eyes were all green, and he would never forget the taste even if he died!
Originally, he wanted to stay in the north and follow Sun Houpu, and see how prosperous Sun Houpu's restaurant was in Bianjing, how big the restaurant was, and how powerful his father-in-law was. As long as his eldest brother was willing to protect him, he would be no better than himself. Is it a hundred times better to do business outside?
Sun Houcai is a typical second-generation ancestor. He has no pursuit in life and just wants to rest on the foundation of his ancestors. If he wants a breakthrough, he can make money every day. As for struggle, he has an old brother!
No one else wants to see this eldest brother, but he thinks that he is someone he looks up to! The family's property is supposed to belong to his brother. If the eldest brother really wants to fight with him, even a hundred of him combined will not be his opponent. If that's the case, why fight for it? Just give the property away openly. ?
Look, the eldest brother's family has started their own business. The family has been trying hard to keep the property, but they still can't keep it. They gave it to Liang Chuan in vain. Liang Chuan is also capable. The eldest brother's eldest brother must be more capable.
Sun Houpu took his younger brother around the port for a few times. This brother had no intention of learning at all. Sun Houpu already knew about his nature. What's the use of him?
To be honest, for this younger brother, except for the family property, other times there is really only brotherly love.
Will it be like this? Anyway, Sun Houpu will always keep this younger brother with him. When the time comes, he will run the sugar business and the profits will be shared with him!
The two went to Fengshan again. Sun Houpu wanted to sell spices, but he couldn't go south empty-handed. At this time, it would be best to take a boatload of sugar to Nanyang. If he could successfully sell the sugar, the sugar alone would be enough. It can make Sun Houpu earn a lot of money!
In the past few years, Zheng Ruoying has not had time to run a Taobao store. She sells sugar very well and sells it when people come to buy it. However, most of the sugar artists are still busy with their hands. They can produce tens of thousands of kilograms of sugar in one winter alone. sugar!
According to the current price, brown sugar and white sugar are about 30-70 per cent. Liang Chuan initially set the price for brown sugar at 20 guan per catty, but the price on the black market has long been 25 guan, not to mention white sugar, which is simply as good as gold!
As for the cost, Liang Chuan told Sun Houpu that as long as he could sell it, the profit would be 50/50. That is, the cost of a pound of sugar to Sun Houpu was only ten guan, and the remaining ten guan would be given to Sun Houpu for free!
If all these candies can be sold, the Sun family will have at least hundreds of thousands of dollars in income. Isn't this more cost-effective than risking beheading to smuggle tea? Smuggling was fun for a while, but the crematorium was inspected! Sugar is not controlled by the court yet, so you can sell as much as you want!
Yi Niang also offered Sun Houpu an extremely favorable condition, that is, Sun Houpu's payment for the goods did not have to be paid in advance. He could wait until all the candies were sold before paying!
Sun Houpu was greatly moved. Although Sun Houpu is not short of money now, he can get hundreds of thousands of dividends from the Forbidden City alone every year, not to mention other incomes. It seems that Sun Houpu has also joined the Shunfeng Escort Agency. Yi Niang He can eat all the candy in his hand without any problem!
Of course, Yi Niang did not dare to give all the sugar to the Sun family for exclusive sale. The Huangmen officials in Beijing would go to Xinghua to purchase a batch of white sugar every year. The sugar they had on hand was the whitest, purest, and most superior in the entire Song Dynasty. ! If the inner palace is unable to use it, not only a few people will be offended! Liang Chuan has warned many times that even if you have money, you should not be too hot-headed. There are some people who should not be offended, including officials and villains!
The power of the government is really great. Although it is extremely weak to the outside world, its ability to deal with the common people will give you a deep understanding of what it means to overestimate one's capabilities and what it means to block the cart with a mantis' arm!
As for villains, villains are so virtuous. Who would get along with a piece of shit and cause a stink all over their body?
Sun Hopu had gone to sell spices. It happened that He Baozheng came to ask about Liang Xiaocheng's situation. He missed Liang Xiaocheng very much after not seeing him for many days. He Baozheng learned that Sun Hopu was about to go south and immediately found Sun Hopu.
At that time, Hussein wanted to trade mosquito coils with Liang Chuan, but later Hussein returned to his hometown to ask questions about God and put his own career aside. In the end, he did not sell much mosquito coils, but supported Liang Chuan. Big weapons.
The sales volume of mosquito-repellent incense has not been high in He Baozheng. Xinghua restaurants are now very popular with business travelers in the past, because after using the low-cost mosquito-repellent incense, there will be a lot less mosquitoes in the entire room, and you can sleep extremely comfortably throughout the night. The room fee will not increase. This win-win effect has made He Baozheng's business stable for many years.
Although merchants will also purchase mosquito-repellent incense and transport it to other places for sale, most merchants only purchase along the way, and very few come to this small village to specifically purchase goods.
Over the past few years, He Baozheng has been expanding the production of mosquito coils, and many of the raw materials are also purchased from Qingyuan. Although the production has increased, the inventory on hand has increased year by year.
He has always wanted to push the goods to Qingyuan to sell, and also sold a lot at the Wanda Chamber of Commerce. In the past, when his son was not around, he always thought that it would be enough. But now he suddenly has hope that his grandson will be born soon, and he will also I want to leave more property to my children!
He Baozheng spent half his life lying down and living a life of pure and stoic life. In the second half of his life, he met Liang Chuan and found a way to get rich. Even his son's outlook changed greatly. Only then did he understand the meaning of hard work. The old man was more motivated than the young man. , and a few more old men were recruited in Helu, who were specifically responsible for purchasing goods!
Sun Houpu was worried that mosquito-repellent incense would not be sold in Nanyang.
Nanyang is located in the tropics, and the climate is hot and humid all year round. There are so many mosquitoes, snakes and ants that few non-natives can tolerate it. However, there are a lot of local spices, and the spice itself is a good mosquito repellent, so Sun Houpu's worry is not without reason.
In comparison, Hussein tried his best to sell mosquito coils to Nanyang, which was equivalent to selling combs to monk temples. Although it was a bit ridiculous, compared with Sun Houpu, his business level was much higher. He was confident and dared to go to this desert to do it. Don’t plan to suffer losses when it comes to business!
Sun Houpu was at least hesitant in front of these mosquito coils. .
Mosquito-repellent incense is better because of its low price, even if it suffers a loss, the loss will not go anywhere!
Anyway, it was on the way, and the mosquito coils were small in size and low in cost. For Liang Chuan's sake, he bought several large boxes of mosquito coils and took them to Nanyang.
In fact, the business that Sun Hopu is most interested in in Fengshan is not sugar or mosquito coils, but Liang Chuan's cigarette business!
This thing is the most violent tool for making money.
No matter how prosperous the business in the Forbidden City is and how charming the girls above are, they still can't compare to that wisp of smoke!
That inconspicuous handful of stems has magical and addictive magic. People who have smoked it a few times will never be able to put it down again. When people feel low, a handful of it will make them feel refreshed. Vibrate, more energetic, and the fatigue on your body seems to disappear with the dissipation of the smoke!
As the business of the tobacco building developed, it became difficult to find a building. In order to meet the crazy needs of smokers, Sun Houpu directly sold tobacco by weight. One dollar of tobacco costs several guan, and sugar is not that expensive!
No matter how much tobacco Sun Hopu had on hand, as soon as it was delivered to him from the south, regardless of the quality, it would be sold out immediately!
He was surprised that Liang Chuan's vision was so sharp that he could find such a magical grass overseas. With such a crop, why would he grow tea? Tea is not as valuable as this grass!
There are also peppers. Liang Chuan has almost all treasures in his hands. They are all priceless treasures. I heard that he even selflessly gave sweet potatoes to the local people. This high-yielding crop can save many lives when famine comes. A person's life determines how valuable it is!
No matter how much he thought about it, it was useless. These two products of Sun Houpu were enough for him to run the business for a while. He still planned to focus on spices as his main business! Spices has been completely discontinued in Qingyuan. This is the best time to enter the industry. It is a good time to take my brother out to see the world. Making money is not that important now!
