Fang Qiong snatched the wine bottle and said, "What suits the taste of the soldiers, this bottle of wine belongs to me." Fang Rui licked his tongue and said, "Second brother, no, why don't you leave a little for the eldest brother." As he spoke, he looked at Fang Xiaoyu with his eyes. Seeing that the two grandfathers who were hungry for wine looked so good for a bottle of wine, Fang Xiaoyu smiled, took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and said, "Grandpa, I will give you one more bottle." ”

Fang Rui no longer robbed Fang Qiong, he happily took the porcelain bottle, opened the cork and smelled it, and found that the fragrance was exactly the same as the bottle just now, so he happily put the wine bottle cap and cork it into his arms. Fang Qiong watched as Fang Rui put a whole bottle of wine into his arms, and asked with a smile on his face, "Xiao Yu, do you still have this kind of wine." Fang Xiaoyu nodded: "There are still a few, but I am also in trial production, there is not much production, and the brewing cycle of this wine is relatively long, so it is not put into production so quickly." ”

Fang Qiong looked at the porcelain vase and said in surprise: "You made this wine?" Fang Xiaoyu nodded: "Yes, I have to have a good idea, I still have a lot of ideas that have not been implemented, but unfortunately I don't have a handicraft workshop, and I lack craftsmen, so I can't make many things." After speaking, he peeked at Fang Qiong.

Fang Qiong and Fang Rui glanced at each other and said, "Xiao Yu, our family does have six relatively large workshops, and there are more than a thousand craftsmen, if you need them, take them all." Fang Rui also nodded: "I will also support you with some funds." ”

"I don't need that much." Fang Xiaoyu shook his head: "I know that our family's workshop still has to make some goods for the shop, if I take it all, our shop will suffer." I only need two workshops and three hundred craftsmen. Hearing that Fang Xiaoyu didn't accept them all, Fang Qiong also breathed a sigh of relief, after all, these craftsmen were the family's experiment in transforming from business to handicraft, and they were also very important to the family. Fang Rui nodded and said, "That's fine, I'll send you the best craftsmen, but you also have to make a promise to your grandfathers." ”

Fang Xiaoyu knew very well in his heart that no matter how close he was with the two grandfathers, the leaders of any family would not show favoritism. Because the first thing they have to consider is the rise and fall of the family, followed by family affection, looking at the two grandfathers with hope in their eyes, Fang Xiaoyu directly showdowned: "Of course you can, within a year, how about I be able to bring at least three projects that make money like Lan Fang to the family?" ”

"Three?" Fang Rui and the others gasped, they had calculated that only one product, Lan Fang Sugar, could bring millions of net profits to the family in a year, if it was three times more, the family could expand more workshops and farms, and establish a stronger business network, and these were all unique products, even if they were used to trade with other big families, they could make huge profits.

Fang Rui gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, Lanting Villa, I will expand it twice as much and transfer you two thousand guards and three hundred craftsmen, these are all counted as your estate, not included in the family industry." Fang Rui said this to admit that Fang Xiaoyu could set up another vassal family, and it could be said that it was very risky to let such a young child be in charge of such a big industry, but Fang Rui had confidence in Fang Xiaoyu, and he had a faint feeling in his heart that Fang Xiaoyu would bring the Fang family to the pinnacle of power.

Seeing the eldest grandfather's determined expression, Fang Xiaoyu also said solemnly: "I won't let my grandfather down, not counting the development of my own industry, I will bring at least 20 million yuan of net profits to the family every year." ”

After listening to Fang Xiaoyu's assurance, Fang Rui and Fang Qiong glanced at each other, their eyes were full of smiles, 20 million pure profits. You must know that even if Lu Dao is the royal Xiahou family, the head of the four major families, if the total assets of the family are only five or six hundred million without using the treasury and the royal treasury, if Fang Xiaoyu alone can bring no less than 20 million net profits to the family every year, then twenty years later, with the development of Fang Xiaoyu's own industry, the ranking of these four major families will be changed.

Seeing the smiles in the eyes of the two grandfathers, Fang Xiaoyu added: "And I only need a profit of 10% for all the projects I give to the family." "Fang Xiaoyu has a very good impression of the Fang family, his family cares about him so much, he naturally has to work for the benefit of the family. Then Fang Xiaoyu pointed to the half bottle of wine that Fang Qiongbao was holding in his arms and said, "This wine is the second project I have given to my family." ”

Back at home, Fang Xiaoyu put all the wine in the equipment inventory into a large porcelain jar and sealed it with mud. Fang Qiong calculated that some of these wines would be left for the New Year's Day, and the rest would be put in small bottles and given away, which could be regarded as advertising in advance, which was also prompted by the second grandfather's sensational effect when he gave Lan Fang Candy to the emperor.

The Chinese New Year is the most lively time of the year, and the whole family has come back as long as they can come back, and everyone gathers together to enjoy the rare joy. Fang Rui, as the patriarch, led the whole family to hold a grand ancestor worship activity, and after the ancestor worship, the banquet on Chinese New Year's Eve began, and exquisite dishes were placed on the table like water. When Fang Rui lifted the two large porcelain jars up, all the people were conquered by the rich aroma of wine, of course, there was not so much wine, and all the people who drank only got a small glass each. But just such a small glass also made everyone have an endless aftertaste, when they knew that this kind of wine was made by Fang Xiaoyu like the snow-white orchid sugar, everyone looked at him differently.

The uncles still didn't react to it, but several brothers went to get close to Fang Xiaoyu, especially the eldest brother Fang Dingguo insisted that Fang Xiaoyu give him more. Among the brothers, Fang Dingguo and Fang Xiaoyu have the best relationship, and he naturally can't refuse, but he just said that after the next batch of wine is brewed, he will send Fang Dingguo a few bottles, which will make him satisfied.

The tedious ancestor worship activities tossed for three days, plus the whole family celebration after that, the seven days soon passed, after the New Year, all the uncles and brothers have gone out one after another to do their own things, there are only three grandfathers in the family, Uncle Fang Weiming, eldest brother Fang Dingguo, third brother Fang Dinggui, these three choose to do business often at home, the rest are just some family members.

Of course, this year, there is one more permanent resident at home, that is, Fang Weiqun, the fifth uncle who has just been transferred back from other provinces to serve in the Praetorian Guard, this fifth uncle used to be a division commander stationed in the southern frontier, and this time he was transferred back to the Praetorian Guard and still served as the division commander, but the level was one level higher, Fang Xiaoyu felt that this might be secretly arranged by Xia Jun, which was a hint made to show the sincerity of the alliance with the Fang family.

Of course, these political matters are not something that Fang Xiaoyu can deal with, what he is thinking about now is how to make money. The history of Wangxiangxing is a history of rapid development, but the result of rapid development is the lack of heritage, just like the motherland in the previous life, 30 years have completed the development path of the Western world for 300 years, but the rapid development has brought huge social contradictions, and many problems that have not appeared in the development process of Western countries have appeared.

The same is true of Wangxiangxing, the rapid development of the main science and technology has been rapid, but it has also made many details a little insufficient, such as sugar, such as liquor, which are considered to be ignored in the rapid development. Therefore, in this world, if it is said that making money, it may be difficult for others, but it is definitely very easy for Fang Xiaoyu.

Just after the New Year, Fang Xiaoyu said goodbye to his reluctant mother, took Zhang Tong and Liu Junxi and some domestic slaves, and returned to Lanting Villa with several carts of food and toys. It must be said that the efficiency of the Fang family is very high. Today's Lanting Villa covers an area of 400 square kilometers, which is almost equivalent to half of the capital city of other counties, but fortunately it is the capital located in Zhongjing Mansion of Zhili County, the area of Zhongjing Mansion is enough to be as large as a county in other counties, and it is a little remote here, which makes Lanting Villa not so conspicuous.

Sun Huaizong and a few people were already waiting outside the gate of the villa, and Lin Feng brought the children out. Fang Xiaoyu greeted everyone happily, ordered Zhang Tong and others to distribute the food to everyone, and gave toys to the children. Sending the children away, Sun Huaizong stayed, and he arched his hand and said, "Congratulations, young master, you can be independent in the future." ”

Fang Xiaoyu waved his hand and said: "This is nothing to congratulate, independence is a challenge even if it is an opportunity, we have to work harder in the future." Sun Huaizong said with a smile: "The villain must do his best to the young master." Fang Xiaoyu nodded and said, "I believe we will succeed, has anything happened when I'm not here recently?" Sun Huaizong reported: "Yesterday, the eldest lord sent someone to come and send some land deeds, all of which are nearby wasteland, with a total of more than 100 square kilometers, which is enough for us to develop for a long time. The person who came also brought 500,000 yuan, saying that it was for the young master to raise funds for your construction. He also said that three hundred craftsmen would come over in a few days. Fang Xiaoyu nodded: "Very good, you're going to be tired these days, and when it's all built, we'll wait to count the money." ”

Seeing Lan Fangtang's surprisingly high profits, Sun Huaizong already had blind confidence in this little young master, and he immediately asked, "Young master, what do you command?" Fang Xiaoyu said: "First of all, continue to dig ditches and enclose the land, and set up a lookout post as soon as possible, our things are becoming more and more valuable, and there will be many people who are red-eyed." The relatively barren place at the foot of Lanting Mountain has drawn a hundred square kilometers as the land for our workshop, and other places should level the land, and we will open up the wasteland in the spring, if there are not enough people, we will go to the nearby villages to hire some, anyway, we are not short of money now. ”

Originally, Fang Xiaoyu planned to grow food on Lanting Mountain, but Ji Lu couldn't keep up with the changes, and now that there was so much land, the terraces on Lanting Mountain were not so important, so Fang Xiaoyu considered planting all fruit trees. Sun Huaizong didn't understand: "Young master, in fact, we can put up a wooden fence outside the ditch, wood is very cheap, as long as we find more craftsmen and build in sections, it can be completed in a few months, even the lookout post." Fang Xiaoyu said: "But where did I find so many craftsmen, and besides, such a long fence is not easy to repair." ”

Sun Huaizong thought about it, this is indeed the case, that is, the wood is very cheap, but it is 700 square kilometers, how can it cost millions, not to mention that the wooden fence is not durable. Seeing that Sun Huaizong didn't speak, Fang Xiaoyu said again: "But your idea is really good, so let's dig another ditch around the industrial area, build a wooden fence and lookout post in the ditch, and as for other fields, we can send the house slaves who cultivate to the fields, so that they can form small villages and protect the crops by themselves, which not only saves the amount of defense power, but also has many empty houses in the mountain villa." Sun Huaizong worried: "But in this way, those house slaves will lose control and run away, what should I do?" Fang Xiaoyu smiled mysteriously: "I have my own way to do this." ”
