As the saying goes, it is easy to work when there are many people, and it is better to eat when there are fewer people. In the eyes of businessmen, there is a difference between ten people and a hundred people.

The white-bearded merchant Jia stood up before, first bowed his hand respectfully to Tian Shiyi, and then said: "Tian Gongzi is kind-hearted and admires the old man. According to the old man, fruit wine and oil wax are common things, but this soap has a long future, so it is better to give up the fruit wine and candles. In this way, there is no need to attract unrelated people into the shares. ”

More than half of the merchants in the room glared angrily at Whitebeard. The old man's words were clearly meant to remove the heat that had nothing to do with lard, and the rest of them made a fortune in silence.

It's no wonder that the old man thinks like this, there are some businessmen here, no matter how you look at it, it has nothing to do with lard and soap.

Tian Shiyi couldn't help laughing, his heart was in front of interests, and he could really see Rao's nature the most.

Seeing that the venue was about to be noisy, Tian Shiyi hurriedly stopped it, but drew a picture on the whiteboard. Everyone hurriedly took a closer look, chatted a few strokes, and a simple flow chart was drawn.

The merchant surnamed Wu was the first to exclaim, and he shouted: "Could it be that the residue left after the soap is made from lard can still be used to make candles and refine fruit wine?" ”

The businessmen were all frightened, and they all stared at Tian Gongzi's face. Seeing Tian Shiyi nodding with a smile, the merchants shouted "boom".

Ah, fruit wine and candles are only made and refined from scraps, aren't they the same as those picked up for nothing?

The shopkeeper Zhang of the fruit wine workshop couldn't sit still, and asked in a trembling voice: "Ask Brother Eleven, how much profit is a pound of lard?" ”

At the beginning, the shopkeeper Zhang, who was still picking his nose at Tian Gongzi, saw that Tian Shiyi could help him make a lot of money, and immediately called Brother Eleven respectfully. It can be seen that the benefit is really a good medicine that makes people bend over and bow their heads. Human nature is really the most intriguing thing.

After a little muttering, Tian Shiyi said: "At present, the profit is less than thirty times, and if the production line designed by Tian can be implemented, the profit can be more than forty times." ”

The needle drop could be heard in the field, and the businessmen once again thought that they had heard it wrong. Forty times more profit, how is it possible? Isn't this Tian Gongzi deceiving me and waiting?

Lao Ma once said such a passage. "If there is a 10% profit, it is guaranteed to be used everywhere; With a 20% profit, it becomes active; With a 50% profit, it takes risks; For the sake of 100% profit, it dares to trample on all human laws; With a 300% profit, it dares to commit any crime, even the danger of hanging. ”

What is forty times? That's a profit of 4,000 percent. Although the money comes quickly, it can't be compared with the forty times the profit, even those who rob it can't compare.

"Tian Gongzi's words, seriously?" Whitebeard asked in a tremolo tone.

Except for those fried garlic or Putian in later generations, there is no business at the bottom that will have such perverted profits, no wonder the businessmen can't believe it for a while.

Tian Shiyi had no choice but to knock on the whiteboard to talk about the key points, pointing to the production flow chart on the whiteboard, and talking in detail about how many pieces of soap can be obtained from a pound of lard, and how many candles can be made from the remaining residues, how much sweet water can be refined, and how much bitter taste of fruit wine can be removed.

The eyes of the merchants gradually brightened, causing Brother Eleven to be startled when he turned around, and these uncles and uncles he invited in the future had already turned into werewolves.

A business that is so profitable is not yet shared, unless the brain is blinded by lard. The businessmen immediately shouted how much money they wanted to pay to join the joint-stock company that Tian Gongzi had never heard of.

Money is naturally needed, but if it is just for money, what kind of shares do they enter, and the rich businessmen in Hangzhou City can grab a lot of them.

Tian Shiyi briefly put forward the conditions for buying shares, that is, he needed the resources in the hands of the businessmen. Those who open fruit wine workshops should take shares in fruit wine, the transportation industry should invest in transportation capacity, and those who sell pigs should naturally provide lard to become shares. In addition, it is quite complicated to calculate the appropriate proportion and invest money in proportion to get the corresponding shares, which is quite complicated and needs to be agreed in detail. I'm afraid that there is no ten, don't want to talk about being ugly.

At this time, a thin and tall businessman named Li Dayong came over, respectfully bowed to Tian Shiyi, and then said, "Tian Gongzi, can Li also buy shares?" ”

All the businessmen set their eyes on Li Dayong, and their hearts were, he was a vegetable oil seller, and he didn't seem to have anything to do with this business, what did Tian Gongzi invite him to do?

What everyone never expected was that Tian Shiyi straightened his robe and looked at Li Dazuo, and then said: "Shopkeeper Li wants to buy shares, and the food of millions of people in Hangzhou City will fall on Shopkeeper Li in the future." ”

Li Dayong was dumbfounded, and the businessmen were inexplicably surprised, and they didn't understand how to talk about business, so they could talk about millions of Hangzhou food.

Tian Shiyi said: "If you want to sell soap all over the Great Song Dynasty, the lard required is terrifying, and the people have no lard, so they have to fry vegetables with vegetable oil." Tian has let people spread the method of stir-frying some time ago, but the origin of this vegetable oil has to fall on the shopkeeper Li. ”

After hearing this, everyone remembered that the people at this time were all fed on lard and mutton fat. The purchase of lard in large quantities will naturally lead to a sharp rise in oil prices, and the people will definitely not be able to afford it.

Tian Shiyi again talked about the fact that the purchase of a large amount of lard can encourage farmers to raise a large number of pigs, and at the same time proposed that the joint-stock company should also raise a large pig factory to ensure the source of lard.

The businessmen were convinced, and admired Tian Shiyi's ability to do business to the point of throwing himself to the ground.

At this time, the businessman surnamed Wu got up, shook his head to the ground at Tian Shiyi, and said respectfully: "Tian Gongzi cares about Li Min, and Wu admires it." From now on, if the eleventh brother can use Wu, Wu will definitely help. The vicissitudes of life, never break their promises. ”

Immediately, more than a dozen businessmen stood up and saluted Tian Shiyi together, with a sincere look in their eyes. When the rest of the people saw it, they immediately got up and made a move, but their expressions and expressions were not impressed.

After a long time in business, it is difficult to put your conscience where it should be. People who chase Vanity Fair all day long, and a few of them will retain a pure heart.

There is some truth in the saying that the poor have a good conscience, but most of the time it is not allowed. Those who are kind-hearted are often the poor. Standing on the mountain and looking down the mountain, the world is as big as an ant. If you stay in the mountains for a long time, you will think that they are really ants. If you were born in the mountains......
