Chapter 348: Million Wine Recipes
Yes, that's the right thing, and it's too arbitrary to make conclusions there without knowing what secrets others are selling. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Zhao Ji understood, turned his head and asked Wang Hao, "Wang Aiqing, what's going on?" ā
Wang Hao was not in a hurry, and stepped forward to reply: "They sell a kind of wine recipe. ā
It's just a wine recipe, Zhao Ji put his mind at ease, there is no need to make such a fuss about this matter, because there are too many wine recipes, if it is crooked for the sake of a wine recipe, then the court does not have to do anything else.
However, he still asked: "Could it be the recipe for that mud pool wine?" ā
He had heard of this wine, but he had never drunk it, and this question was also because this wine had a good reputation and was worth paying attention to.
"Exactly." Wang Hao replied.
"It's just a kind of wine, and it's privately owned, so it's not a state secret."
Zhao Ji is making peace, he doesn't want to see several senior officials in the court arguing over this.
Wang Hao didn't appreciate it, but stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty doesn't know something, but this is not the case. ā
"Oh, what's so extraordinary?" Zhao Jiqi asked.
Wang Hao replied: "First, this wine is unique, and the wine recipe should belong to the special project of the Great Song Dynasty, and it should not be easily passed on. In both cases, the price of this wine is extremely high, and in cooperation with the government, its profits plus taxes are accounted for by the official account for sixty percent, and the sale of the wine is harmful to the interests of the imperial court. Isn't it a betrayal of state secrets? ā
Zhao Ji nodded and agreed: "This is reasonable, how should Aiqing deal with this matter?" ā
I have to say that, in addition to other aspects, Zhao Ji is indeed a sauce in dealing with government affairs, and he is very greedy and greedy. As soon as he heard that the imperial court accounted for sixty percent of the profits, his greed immediately came to him, and Wang Hao said so precisely because of Zhao Ji's key point.
Wang Hao saw that Zhao Ji didn't even ask for Cai Jing's opinion, and he replied: "Nationalize the liquor party, severely punish the parties, in addition, Gao Feng and his people also have soap, soap, alabaster, canned food and other special items, in order to prevent similar incidents, they should also be nationalized." ā
This trick is not poisonous, he wants to confiscate everything in the peak, but as soon as he released this, everyone understood what was going on.
Selling state secrets is just an excuse for Wang Huangxun, and the real intention is to get hold of Gao Feng's special project.
Don't look at those things are small and the profits are thin, but this thing is rare, and the people need it, if it can be popularized, it will be a huge wealth, who is not jealous of such wealth?
It's just that no matter how ruthless Wang Hao's tricks are, no one on the scene stepped forward to excuse Gao Feng, because there are too many people offended by his views on developing industry and commerce, and no one wants to speak for a nasty person.
"What does the master mean?" Zhao Ji naturally won't hide it from Cai Jing, this matter involves him, and he must make a statement.
Cai Jing has been silent except for a question before, and everyone doesn't know what he means, but seeing him smile and get up, they know that this matter is not so simple.
Cai Jing stepped forward and said: "Wang Zhongcheng only knows that the Nichi Wine Imperial Court accounts for sixty percent of the shares, but does he know how much the wine has been sold since it was born?" How profitable is the imperial court? ā
"This-", when Cai Jing asked, Wang Huang was stunned, and had to reply: "I haven't found out." ā
Cai Jing turned to Zhao Ji and said: "Your Majesty, the next county newspaper came up, since the birth of the mud pond wine, a total of 113 jars have been sold, according to each altar of 100 guan, sold 11,300 guan, deducting the cost, it is more than 10,000 yuan, the imperial court is calculated according to 60% of the profit, the income is only 6,000 guan, this is still the mud pond wine has just been born, everyone is novel, over time, sales will be seriously declined, and its profit is not enough to become the national capital." ā
If this is true, not only Zhao Ji doesn't care about it, but even the ministers don't take it to heart. The income of 6,000 guan may be a lot of money for an ordinary person, but for a country, it is not money at all, not to mention that the sales volume will decline in the future, and it will not be much income in a year.
This kind of little fart was also brought to the court to discuss, Zhao Ji glanced at Wang Hao dissatisfied, but still asked: "Can you sell wine?" ā
"It does." Cai Jing said truthfully.
"It seems that the Taishi knows about this, why?" Zhao Ji continued again.
This is also reasonable, even if the income of this wine is not much, it is also an achievement of the Great Song Dynasty, and it has not been promoted in the Great Song Dynasty, but it is sold to foreigners, and it is not an exaggeration to say that you have betrayed the country to seek glory. Zhao Ji also wanted to see what Cai Jing meant.
"For profit." Cai Jing replied unabashedly.
This is just, who will sell it if you don't make a profit, the key is that you don't let foreigners master this technology if you sell it?
Cai Jing continued: "Although this wine does not make much money, it is an important supplement to the Great Song Dynasty Liquor Industry, so it cannot be done without it. ā
Wang Hao sensitively grasped this sentence, stepped forward and asked: "The wine party has not been announced, but it has been sold to foreign countries, doesn't this mean that the Song people are not as good as outsiders?" ā
As soon as these words came out, even Zhao Ji and the ministers felt that it was reasonable, this was simply an insulting act.
Cai Jing said: "This is a marketing strategy, and it is a kind of clever money to earn. ā
"Marketing strategy?" Zhao Ji asked: "How to market?" ā
Cai Jing replied: "For example, if this wine recipe is announced in advance, everyone in the world will know about it, and it will be easy for foreign missions to get it, and it will be worthless at that time, if you sell it to them, they will not want it, but if you sell it to them before it is announced, it will be a new thing for them, and they will naturally be willing to buy it out of their pockets, and at this time, it is easy to export even if it is a price." ā
"I see." Zhao Ji was already excited when he heard this, isn't it a kind of hand-to-hand transaction commonly used in business? How big do you think?
Even if Cai Jing asked rhetorically at this time, he didn't care much.
"Your Majesty, do you know how much this wine sells for?"
"How much can you sell for a wine recipe?"
"Your Majesty, this wine can be sold for 100,000 taels."
"Oh, 100,000 taels, that's not a lot." Zhao Ji replied casually, obviously not in his heart.
"That's one, if there are ten, it will be a million taels."
"Oh, a million taels, that's it...... What the? So many? Zhao Ji, who was wilting, suddenly woke up and almost jumped up from the dragon chair.
He doesn't care about 6,000 taels, he can not care about 100,000 taels, but he can't care less about 100,000 taels, that's a lot of money!
How much is the entire Great Song Dynasty, and one wine party has sold a million taels, if there are a few more, wouldn't it be a fortune?
He was a petty official in the county who could make so much money all at once, which was really a good marketing strategy.
"What does he want so much money for?" Zhao Ji's tone had turned cold.
Can't you rebel?
