Chapter 23 How to solve worries, only get rich!
"Xiedao, is this really frosting?"
Zhang looked at the pot of snow-white particles in front of him, and the shock on his face was no less than Ying Er just now.
"No, this is not frosting!"
"I'll just say it!"
"I call it sugar!"
Zhang:...
"Black frosting can basically be sold for two jin per catty in Chang'an City. So if it were replaced by this snow-white sugar, it would be a big deal for five jin per catty, right?"
Obviously, Qin Xiedao's way to get rich is to make sugar.
"Most of those who like to eat frosting are women from noble families, and they have a high pursuit of appearance. Such frosting that is like snowflakes will definitely be more popular than dark frosting."
Although Zhang thought that frosting worth five jin per pound was too expensive.
But objectively speaking, she thought that it was not an exaggeration to sell this thing for five jin per pound.
In the entire Chang'an City, there is no frosting shop that sells such frostings.
"Langjun, this frosting is good. If it costs five jin per pound, it is too expensive. In fact, we can make money as long as we sell it for three jin per pound."
Ying Er has recovered from the shock just now and began to think enthusiastically about how much money the Qin Mansion can earn this time.
"White sugar, I'll say it again. Our name is white sugar. It can't be mixed with black frosting, otherwise it will be too expensive.
As for the price issue you mentioned, those who can afford to buy 2 jin of frosting per kilogram will still care if sugar is sold for 5 jin of money per kilogram?"
As soon as Qin Xiedao said this, everyone stopped talking.
Although they really want to say it, they care.
But I have to admit that there are really many people in Chang'an City that don't care.
I can only say that the Qin Mansion is still too wealthy now.
"Xiedao, is this troublesome to make this sugar?"
Zhang is responsible for the food and drink of a family member of the Qin Mansion. Now selling sugar seems to bring a lot of benefits to the Qin Mansion, so naturally we have to consider the next step.
"It's not troublesome, it can even be said to be very simple. However, because it's very simple, this method needs to be highly confidential, otherwise others will be able to continue our sole business."
Qin Xiedao hated the style of cherishing one's own treasure in this era, but in terms of the production of sugar, he also became a person who cherished one's own treasure.
There is no way, who made the icing frosting monopolized by the Indians now?
He had not had a large amount of sugar cane planted in Lingnan, or the frosting belonging to Datang itself was refined before it was extracted.
"There are all trustworthy people in the mansion, and there are no outsiders. However, from today on, the secret recipe for making sugar will be kept by Xiedao and Ying Er, and no one else is allowed to know.
Even if Shubao and I ask you, don’t tell me, so that we can keep it confidential to the greatest extent. Especially for you, Aye, you can’t hide things in your heart. Once he knows how sugar is made, he might be trapped by someone’s cliché.”
Zhang's arrangement should be considered very safe.
"No problem! But it will take some time to refine all the frosting I bought today into white sugar. In order to speed up, some iron pots and other supplies are also needed."
"Luye, take out all the money in the box. If Dalang wants to buy anything, you can arrange for someone to buy it. Then you are asking Qin Fu to find a shop in the West Market, which doesn't have to be very big, but the location must be good.
After we made a certain amount of sugar, we started selling it there.”
Zhang's actions are also very decisive.
There is no way, the Qin Mansion is really short of money now.
How to relieve worries is to get rich.
...
Master Yang has been in a good mood these days.
Li Shimin adopted his suggestion and issued several imperial edicts in the court, directly demonstrating the intention of punishing the evil ones and not prosecuting those who follow.
He also specially arranged for Wei Zheng to go to various places in Hebei to appease officials.
The dark clouds that were shrouded in the family because Yang Gongren was dismissed were immediately dispersed.
"Mr. Lang, there are more than ten times more people coming to see you in the past two days than before. Especially for some people who passed the imperial examination, but the court has not yet arranged a suitable position, and they are even more diligent."
In the Yang Mansion, the butler Yang Ze reported the changes in the mansion to Yang Shidao in a happy mood.
The Yang Mansion was once crowded with people.
But in the past half month, it has been a bit of a neglect.
Now it has quickly returned to the bustle, even more than that.
"Your Majesty asked me to serve as the Minister of Personnel. I believe in my character. I will never agree with those who want to take an important position by flattery. If there are irrelevant people to visit me in the future, you can directly refuse."
Mr. Yang was born in a wealthy family and had no relationship with the people.
When he was in charge of the selection of officials from the Ministry of Personnel, he suppressed the powerful and relatives and friends to avoid suspicion.
That's why Li Shimin continued to make him the Minister of Personnel.
"Okay, I've rejected it all. But some people are so enthusiastic that they leave behind the gift and leave. I can't even refuse even if I want to."
"Did Yan'er come back? Didn't she go to the temple several times a month to donate some money for sesame oil, or to open a porridge shed in some places where refugees gather outside the city?
You hand over the property you can't push off to Qingxia and use it where you should."
Although Yang Shidao looked straight outside, he looked very hard to speak.
But when I returned home, I looked like a daughter slave in front of my daughter.
This situation is also relatively rare in Chang'an City.
"Langjun, when it comes to the eldest lady, I just heard a message, and you may need to confirm with her."
Yang Ze struggled for a few seconds, but finally felt that he wanted to tell Master Yang the rumors he heard.
"What news?"
When Master Yang saw Yang Ze's expression, his heart skipped a beat.
"I heard...Mr., I just heard that when the eldest lady was out a few days ago, she was flirted with someone!"
"What???!!!"
Sure enough, as soon as Yang Ze's voice came to an end, Yang Shidao's face changed drastically.
"Why haven't I heard Yan'er say it? What rumors have you heard?"
"Langjun, a few days ago, my eldest lady and Qingxia went to the release pool in the west city to play, but accidentally fell into the water. Someone rescued them at that time.
But it is said that in the process of saving them, the man's movements were frivolous and took the opportunity to take advantage of the eldest lady. Many people next to the release pond saw it with their own eyes, and the rumors outside were even more vivid and realistic!”
After hearing what Yang Ze said, Yang Shidao felt a stream of blood surging towards his head!
