Chapter 15: Borrowing Money

At the wine table, Lu Hong became a background. Wu Kai happily talked to Gao Yuan about some of the winemaking techniques. When he was in a deep mood, he couldn't help laughing. At this time, Wu Kai was not like a county magistrate, but was just a wine dealer.

"Mr. Wu, I think the method of selling wine you just mentioned can be improved." After drinking a few glasses of homemade high wine, Gao Yuan was also a little drunk.

"Oh, if you talk about this winemaking craft, your nephew Gao is an expert, but my Wu family has been operating this wine for so many generations, how can it be worse than you?" Wu Kai said dissatisfied.

Gao Yuan laughed and said, "I won't say it before. Just our wine, have Lord Wu ever thought about how to sell it?"

"Would you have any new ways to do that?"

"Of course there is!"

"Dare you dare to hear it?" Wu Kai widened his eyes and bowed. At this time, Gao Yuan was no longer just an innocent young man, but a heavy partner in his eyes.

Gao Yuan smiled and took a jar of the Wu family's wine, poured half a bowl of it, and then poured half a bowl of his wine, "Sir, isn't it a big difference?"

"Of course it's big!" Wu Kai said dissatisfiedly: "Otherwise, why would I cooperate with you?"

Gao Yuan smiled and spread several bowls in front of him, poured some wine from the Wu family, and mixed them with some high-level wine. In turn, the Wu family's wine became less and less, and the wine in his own home became more and more until the last bowl was all his own wine. At this time, the wine in several bowls was clearer and clearer.

"Sir, do you understand? This first bowl is the original wine from your house. I wonder how much it costs per pound before?"

"Five cents!" Wu Kai stretched out a finger and looked at the wine bowl on the table. "I understand what you mean. This second bowl will naturally cost 67 cents. This third bowl costs at least 10 cents. The fourth bowl starts at 20 cents!" Wu Kai's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he counted all the way, "I sold this last bowl for a pound of money, I'm afraid someone would buy it!"

With a bang, Gao Yuan combined his two palms and one hand, "Mr. Wu, it is really a big loss for you to become an official without doing business."

"If you don't become this official, how can you let my Wu family run the wine exclusively in Fufeng and have a smooth flow?" Wu Kai said with a smile.

"No, good, officials, businessmen, officials and businessmen, only one can be integrated into one, and monopolizes can produce huge profits." Gao Yuan nodded repeatedly, agreeing. "If you sell this wine in this way, you will naturally identify it. If you divide the wine into grades, those with identities will naturally not buy low-end wines. The more expensive our wine, the more face they will be. Therefore, Lord Wu, this best wine cannot produce too much. We must always buy more outside and sell less. As for the others, the more the more it will be better!"

"A clever plan, a clever plan!" Wu Kai laughed, "My Wu family has sold wine for several lifetimes, but I didn't expect that it would be better than Nephew Gao. I woke up the dreamer and make a fortune together in the future!"

"Everyone gets rich, everyone gets rich!" Gao Yuan said with a smile.

Lu Hong couldn't get in the mouth while talking, and looked at the two of them with some depression, thinking of two profiteers with contempt! Seeing the lofty talk with Wu Kai, he was surprised that this nephew watched him grow up all the way, but he didn't realize that he still had this ability.

The wine was full of fun. Wu Kai was worried about going back and asking the masters at home to go to get the scriptures, so he got up and said goodbye. Gao Yuan also stood up and said goodbye to Lu Hong. Today, he was originally going to give Lu Hong the wine to fulfill his filial piety, but unexpectedly, he started a big business in a blink of an eye. Although it was only half a share, as long as the business was big, it would be difficult not to make a fortune.

The two went out together. The magistrate of Wu County was about to get on the carriage, but Gao Yuan stepped forward and held Wu Kai's sleeve. "Mr. Wu, Gao Yuan still has something to ask for, I wonder if he can handle it?"

"Nephew Gao, please tell me!"

Gao Yuan sniffed and said embarrassedly: "I will be ready to take office in the past two days, but I heard from my uncle that the team of soldiers I want to go owed half a year's salary and had no salary. It's not easy for me to go there. I want to borrow some from the adults to overcome the difficulties. I'll deduct it from my shares at that time?"

"Hahaha, we just collaborated, and I haven't seen anything yet. You'll fight Qiufeng first!" Wu Kai laughed, "How much do you want to borrow?"

"One thousand guan!" Gao Yuan lion spoke up, ready to bargain.

"Your uncle can also take out this money, why ask me to borrow it?" Wu Kai thought.

"It's because it's uncle that it's hard to speak!" Gao Yuan smiled and said, "Besides, the uncle's family has no business, so how can Lord Wu be at work? Even if the uncle agrees, my aunt will definitely not want it. I don't want me to leave and the fire broke out in the backyard of my uncle's house!"

Gao Yuan said it interestingly, and Wu Kai smiled and said, "One thousand guan is not a big deal. Anyway, you have money to pay it back now. Tomorrow, I will let the master bring it here."

"Thank you so much!" Gao Yuan was overjoyed and bowed to the ground. "It's really good to cooperate with the adults."

"It's also a pleasure to cooperate with you!" Wu Kai said: "You have so many tricks. Well, this wine is really good today, but I still want to ask, can this wine improve the quality?"

"Sir, isn't this quality in front of you enough?" Gao Yuan didn't say it was OK, nor did he say it was not OK, and he left with a smile.

Looking at Gao Yuan's figure moving away, Wu Kai stroked his beard, "Interesting, interesting!"

When he got home, Zhang Yi had already repaired the ear door quickly and wandered around the ear door for a while. Gao Yuan finally didn't touch the next door and knocked on the window. Finally, he decided to have a good sleep first. There was still some work to do tomorrow. It seemed that his day of taking office would be postponed for two days. Speaking of which, he still had to build two handy weapons.

As soon as the sky was dawn, Gao Yuan was woken up by Zhang Yi, saying that the butler of the Wu County Magistrate's family dragged a cart of copper coins over and was moving into the house. Zhang Yi was frightened and could only come and call Gao Yuan.

"I'm really impatient!" Gao Yuan whispered a few words, turned over and got out of bed, and took out the two weapons he drew last night from the table. "Zhang Yi, if someone sends the money, you can collect the money, and then take this pattern to find the best blacksmith in the city, and use the best materials to make these two weapons for me. I have marked the style, knowing the shortness, thickness, and weight on it. There is no error. I pay three times the price, the faster the better!"

"I understand!" Zhang Yi was impressed by Gao Yuan now. He was sleeping heavily at home, but someone actually sent money to his house. He was also the butler of the Wu County Magistrate's family in Fufeng.
