Chapter VII Substantive Negotiations
Although the quality warehouse managed by He Laodao is a county branch, it is one of the best buildings in Shangshui County, look at the eaves and green tiles, three-layer carved railings, and the spirit of the ground is incomparable, just in the quiet backyard, Wang Cheng, Wang Xiu and his son are here.
Play with the exquisite black porcelain Tianmu glazed tea cup, taste the faint tea fragrance, not to mention the sharp buds, even the tea cup will be sold for ten gold, Wang Xiu is very surprised by the background of Wanshixing, the shopkeeper of a county branch, the degree is so luxurious, a peek at the overall situation, the proprietor of everything is not rich in the world.
"The shower device of the two, the old man thought about it again, and felt that it was still profitable, but the prospect was not too optimistic, and I couldn't go too far with the usual caution above." He Laodao blinked his mouse eyes, and put Wang Xiu in the same position with a serious appearance.
Wang Cheng said with a smile: "Of course, the big shopkeeper in the state is cautious. ”
Wang Xiu's eyes are white, he can believe Lao Dao's words, and he is shrewd like a mouse, this kind of old economy of the quality bank can't be polite to him, he can only talk about interests directly, people are making money for money, talking about bullshit, benevolence, righteousness and morality.
He Laodao looked at Wang Xiu with small eyes, and continued: "According to the above consistent virtue, I'm afraid it's hard to agree, but I will try my best to fight for it, old man." Speaking of this, he took the tea and took a sip slowly, looking at the Wang family father and son out of the corner of his eyes, but saw Wang Cheng's anxious and anxious feelings, overflowing with words, but Wang Xiu drooped his eyelids and looked absent-minded.
He made a judgment against the father and son in his heart, put down the cup, smacked his lips and said: "The risk is too great, let the top loosen, everything will occupy the fifth floor of your shop, and I can speak." ”
Wang Cheng was taken aback, and said in a lost voice: "Fifth floor, my shop is worth hundreds of gold just by the location." ”
He Laodao smacked his lips, smiled disdainfully, and secretly scolded Wang Cheng for living a handful of years, how could he not understand.
Wang Xiu sniffed, played with the black porcelain Tianmu glaze, and said playfully: "What shopkeeper, everything is a real big business house!" ”
He Laodao was stunned, he didn't know what Wang Xiu meant, and blinked his eyes to taste the taste of these words.
Wang Chengtong frowned slightly, his son rashly interjected to make him unhappy, but the shower device was made up by his son, and He Laodao paid more attention to it, he swallowed the words of the scolding, and decided to take a look first.
"If the younger generation can decolorize the brown sugar, the color is ten times better than the frosted sugar, the cost is three percent lower, and the refining method is improved to make sugarcane juice, how much profit does the shopkeeper think?" Wang Xiu pursed his lips disdainfully and took a sip of tea in his cup.
He Laodao's eyes lit up, although he is an old economist in the quality warehouse, but this line of work requires a jack of all trades! Immediately judge the huge profits in Wang Xiu's words.
The price of frosting sugar and brown sugar, he is clear, the process of making frosting sugar is complex, the cost is extremely high, the sugar color is a little yellow, the price is three times that of brown sugar, if the color is ten times better, the cost is three layers, and fools know the huge commercial benefits.
Can it really be? He looked at Wang Xiu suspiciously, this is not a joke, not to mention that the brown sugar is decolorized, but it is not trivial to improve the refining method, the grinding method of sugarcane juice is to cut the sugarcane into small pieces, and then grind it into slurry, put it in a pot to boil the cane juice, the processing process is quite cumbersome, and the cost is naturally high.
Wang Xiufeng's indifferent face made him uncertain, the opportunity, an opportunity with huge risks and huge profits, hooked his greed, pondered for a moment, and said cautiously: "The little official is a erudite!" ”
Wang Cheng was also puzzled, how did his son become so wise, he simply changed people, and gave him one surprise after another.
Wang Xiufeng smiled lightly: "I have been studying for a few years, and I have read a lot of miscellaneous books, so I have a little experience." "He has not fully mastered the brown sugar decolorization technology, it is now twelve o'clock five minutes, there is no time to delay, first take He Laodao down, he has the determination and confidence to successfully master the technology.
Although this reason is reluctant, it is also reasonable, He Laodao stroked the mouse whiskers, his small eyes flashed shrewdly, and he said after a long time: "How to improve?" How does brown sugar turn white? ”
Wang Xiu put down the teacup, cast a disdainful gaze, and said slowly: "What shopkeeper, improve the refining method to reduce the cost of sugar production, you also know the frosting sugar, that can be called sugar?" I have the ability to decolorize brown sugar into white sugar, the texture is infinitely close to white, conservatively estimated to be twice the profit than frosted sugar, a decrease and an increase, how much more profit can be made? What shopkeeper thinks the younger generation is joking? ”
Wang Cheng snorted, and said, "How did you talk to Shopkeeper He." ”
"He shopkeeper forgives his sins, and the younger generation is anxious." Wang Xiu smiled lightly and hurriedly confessed.
He Laodao was completely attracted by Wang Xiu's words, the refining method is not that it cannot be improved, on the contrary, many craftsmen have figured it out, once the research is successful, the cost will naturally be greatly reduced, as for the black and white change, he is not interested in it for the time being, but he also knows that the profits that make the world's businessmen crazy.
"Hey, petty officials should not be presumptuous, they can improve the refining method and greatly reduce the cost of sugar production, which is something that the sugar industry has not been able to accomplish for many years. Oh, the petty officials are sure to complete it, which really makes those craftsmen lose face. He Laodao sighed, but his eyes rolled around, and he didn't believe it.
Wang Xiu's face did not change, he was facing the old fox of the quality bank, but he could not be confused by the other party, improving the refining method and even mass-producing white sugar was a very simple matter, but people didn't expect it for the time being, he would never say it lightly. Good things should be taken out in the same way, and if it weren't for the fact that his family's situation was so embarrassing that he couldn't wait, he wouldn't even reveal it.
Seeing that Wang Xiu was calm, He Laodao seemed to be confident, and he couldn't help but feel a little more apprehensive, and said tentatively: "The little official is a little sure. ”
"Then it depends on how sincere the shopkeeper He is." Wang Xiu smiled faintly.
He Laodao rolled his eyes and scolded the little fox secretly, obviously putting a bait to hang his appetite, but not giving it to others, it was really bad water. I was disdainful in my heart, but I smiled on my face and said, "Little official! With all due respect, the state's Wanshixing branch is not very interested in showering, last night the young proprietor passed by, stayed for an hour, and the old man finally gave three points of thin noodles under repeated persuasion, but the young proprietor meant five floors. ”
"Young proprietor, why doesn't he kill people!" Wang Xiu rolled her eyes, something, it seems that there is really something to take advantage of.
He Laodao glared and said: "The little official is a good mouth, the young proprietor of my family is a genius, and it must be worth it if he can look at it." ”
"That's because he looked away, not to mention the shower, it's a complete set of improvements in the sugar method, and the profit obtained is enough to support his eyeballs, believe it or not, as long as I take it out, I don't know how many people are vying to buy it."
Wang Cheng couldn't help frowning slightly when he heard his son's tone, secretly displeased, the young man Meng Lang was fine, but he couldn't be too crazy.
He Laodao looked at Wang Xiu with a smile and said, "In this Shangshui County, except for me, who would dare to take over your hand?" ”
Wang Xiu subconsciously looked at Wang Cheng, but saw that Wang Cheng's face was pale, shaking his head and sighing, it was obvious that He Laodao had grabbed his life.
"Daddy." Wang Xiu's eyes were firm, and he turned his head to look at Wang Cheng.
Wang Cheng knew what his son thought, and he didn't say much to bow his head gently, and the bitterness in his mouth between serving tea and tasting it, decades of life, he didn't achieve fame in studying, he was barely able to do business, and he was secretly suppressed, and in the end he had to rely on his son, which was really unbearable.
Wang Xiu understood that his father didn't ask, and he also understood that his family had reached the most critical stage, and if he united with Wanshixing one day earlier, it would be less dangerous, and he still had a hand anyway.
With Wang Cheng's approval, he was much more confident, and faced He Laodao's ill-intentioned gaze', and said categorically: "The fourth floor of the grocery store, Wanshixing cannot be transferred to others, it can only be held by Wanshixing in Shangshui County, and the sugar is also monopolized by the shop, and there are no two houses." ”
"Okay, sign it today." He Laodao's eyes lit up, and a hammer was finalized.
"Did you say yes too soon?" Wang Cheng took advantage of He Laodao to ask the man to invite the account office to come, and said the words that he had been holding back.
Wang Xiu shook his head and said, "Daddy, time is not waiting for me!" Even if he wants the sixth floor, he has to promise him. ”
"You make sugar." Wang Cheng wanted to speak and stopped.
"Daddy, don't worry, since he He Laodao made a move, it means that he has the bottom in his heart, and he will hand it over to his father when he goes to the county office." Wang Xiu grinned, since he dared to do it, it was by no means a relief to his father, the brown sugar decolorization was not successful for the time being, but it does not mean that it cannot be successful, and every time it is realized, there is new hope.
At this time, in a restaurant near the county office, in the private room facing the street, a thin middle-aged man hurriedly entered the private room, and there was a faint whispering sound inside.
"Is the third child of the Ge family done?"
"Don't worry, brother, my younger brother and I will go out, and Ge Laosan is not satisfied."
"Okay, let's settle the matter today, I'll see how Wang Cheng still flutters, hehe." xh118
