Chapter 4 The Use of the Sugar Gang

"Through the forest sea ~ through the snow field ~ angry Xiaohan ~~!"

At noon, Jiang Weidong played two taels of turbid wine, and sang a strange tune while playing with the charcoal basin with an iron hook, obviously in a good mood.

As the weather gets cooler, going out to exchange chicken feathers for sugar has become a real chore, and when I come back from a trip, I often have sores on my hands and feet, and those who are old often fall ill as soon as they come back.

What is worse than the weather is that this business is becoming more and more difficult to do, and there are fewer and fewer things that can be exchanged.

Although most of the farmers will pay a special visit to Jiang Weidong before boiling sugar, ask for advice on the skills of boiling sugar and walking in all directions, and verbally say that they will join the sugar knocking gang and other cheap words, but in fact, they have no half-dime relationship with their Jiang family, but are all competitors.

What's strange is that no matter who asks, the Jiang family's father and son all know everything, and a good Jiang family has become a by-product of the county, and has cultivated countless competitors in vain.

So Su Goudan finally couldn't help it, although he positioned himself as a domestic servant, but domestic servants also have the responsibility to admonish the master's family, right? If the lord's house starves to death, where will he, the servant, eat?

"Brother Kun, you can taste my freshly boiled sugar."

Jiang Kun was in the bed, and took a bite in a daze: "Yes, you are good at this skill, and you are already stronger than my father's boiling, if you want me to say that there are so many boiled sugar in our county, your sugar is the sweetest and best." ”

Su Goudan was complimented, his eyes narrowed into a line, but he took the opportunity to say: "However, our family's business has not been very good recently, Uncle Dong has taught the secret of boiling sugar to the people of the county, and if it goes on like this, who will change our sugar, is it really only to change chicken feathers, then you have to starve to death?" ”

Jiang Kun smiled and pulled Su Goudan's head, and said with a smile: "This is not your own question, are you afraid that my father will starve the big guy to death?" ”

Su Goudan blushed slightly and said, "Everyone...... Everybody has some ideas. ”

Jiang Kun said with a smile: "Then you might as well let the following inquire again, although our income from exchanging sugar is less, but the whole county has gone out to exchange chicken feathers for sugar, how much money can other people make?" I can tell you that they don't even have half of us, and in the future, those who follow our father and son will make more and more money, and those who hide from our father and son will only make less and less. ”

Su Goudan was surprised and hurriedly asked, "What's going on?" ”

Jiang Kun knew that the current Knocking Sugar Gang had become more and more popular, and there were more and more people who were dissatisfied with their father and son's cheats.

The so-called inner perimeter refers to those who, like their father and son, have no roots and no roots, and gather together to report to the group for warmth and make a living, which is also the survival of the Jiang family in this world.

And the periphery, it is nominally to join the knocking sugar gang, but in fact, it is only a little respect for their father and son on the surface, and most of the people who don't bird them at all on weekdays are local people who have land and property, and the competition that Su Goudan said refers to is these peripherals, which seem to be extraordinarily many in the winter of farming, and they who make a living are about to be unable to eat.

"In fact, the real value of the sugar knocking gang has never been the technology of crystallized sugar, there are more skilled craftsmen and smart people in this world, even if our father and son want to hide their secrets, believe it or not, in less than three years, this knock will still be touched by people with hearts, and then spread everywhere?"

"So, what is the value of our Knock Sugar Gang?"

Jiang Kun stretched out his finger and pointed at his head: "Information." ”

"Information? What is information? ”

Jiang Kun got up from the quilt with a smile, walked outside and took out the guy, and continued to talk while releasing the water, but he didn't notice that Su Goudan's face became extremely red again, and he hurriedly turned around and dodged, and his eyes were rolling around, like a bright fox.

"This information, simply put, is where there is a lack of what is missing, for example, this salt, within a radius of three hundred miles, Yixing County sells the cheapest, especially in a place called Dahuai Village (the Sui Dynasty allowed private salt trading is not forbidden), but they lack cloth, and Huaiyi County's salt is the most salt-deficient, but almost every family has women weaving cloth, so if you use Huaiyi's cloth to exchange for Yixing's salt, this part in the middle of your hand is all our profits."

When he said this, he just finished putting out the water, put on his pants, and put his arms around Su Goudan's shoulders, which made him tremble, and hurriedly pretended to be calm and asked, "But, but what does this have to do with us?" ”

"Everyone gathers firewood and the flame is high, if we just rely on dozens of us to exchange chicken feathers for sugar, the price of sugar will go up, but how far can we go? Can you get out of this black county? How can we know the salt in Yixing County, and how can we know Buduo in Huaiyi County? Think about it, no matter how many people in our county do this business, who has the most complete information and the most groceries in their hands? ”

Su Goudan's eyes lit up: "It's us?" So we will always earn more than them, and when they find out about this later, they will take the initiative to come to us, and we will have more and more information and groceries in our hands, and even in the end, we don't have to change sugar at all, just sit at home to send and receive groceries, peddling information, we can make a lot of money, and even in the future, there will be more goods, we can also unite those powerful bulk buying and selling goods, isn't it? ”

This time, Jiang Kun was stunned, but he didn't expect this Su Goudan to be so smart, a little bit so thorough, and patted his chest vigorously and said, "It's so smart!" You're born to do business."

You must know that Jiang Kun can understand the Tao, all thanks to the experience of the previous life, after all, the Yiwu small commodity wholesale market is how to exchange chicken feathers for sugar little by little, this is also the first pot of gold of Jiang Weidong in the previous life, so Jiang Kun knows very well that his father's vision has never been on that bit of crystalline sugar, and Su Goudan, a native, actually said the true meaning of the development of Yiwu in the later generations, this talent, I am afraid that it will not be lost to Jiang Weidong, who is known as a business wizard.

How do you know that Su Goudan was actually stunned by Jiang Kun's shot, the whole person seemed to have been immobilized, and his little face was as if he had boiled boiling water, and he couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with you?" Is it windy and frozen? ”

"I didn't ...... I'm fine. ”

"I have a few pieces of old ginger in the house, let's go, let's make ginger syrup for you to drink."
