Chapter 347、I want to go too
It doesn't take too much to recruit the first batch of sugar makers, because the sugar making machine that Su Wu made is just that.
In the future, when everyone is proficient, the daily output will be up to the sky, and there can only be so much.
Unless, she makes another set of assembly lines.
But, for her now, there is no need.
The recruited workers who washed sugarcane were added later.
The man who chopped the sugar cane into small sections invited two more.
Workers who put sugarcane into the juicer also hired two more.
As for the workers who filter sugarcane juice, there is no need for much training, and anyone who knows how to make tofu knows how to do it.
As for the whole process, Su Wan and Feng Jing showed them separately what they needed to do, how much weight was added each time, how big the heat was, and how much charcoal was added.
In fact, even if they are not trained separately, they will not understand the truth after reading the whole set, and they don't have to worry about the "secret recipe" being leaked, but in order to show that they are nervous, they will still be trained separately.
Everyone cooperated for the first time, but they also failed to boil white sugar, but after several run-ins, boiling white sugar went a lot smoother.
It wasn't until everyone saw that the white sugar and the white sugar were made by themselves, and the news spread to all corners of the village, that no one believed Wu Qin's rumors anymore.
Cheng Cheng walked up to Su Wan a little nervously, "Miss Su, you asked me to come to work in the factory, but you didn't let me participate in any process, why is this?" ”
"I see that you are eloquent, you also have some knowledge, and you are in the prime of life, I am afraid that letting you boil sugar in the factory will bury your ability, you see that now our sugar has been produced, but others don't know that we have white sugar production, so I plan to let you go to the spice shop in the nearby county to run during this time." Su Wu didn't know what this kind of promotion personnel in ancient times were called.
The state capital that is too far away is not worried about letting Cheng Cheng go, but it is still possible in the nearby counties, and if the signboard is played first, other businessmen will come to the door to order.
Although Su Wan wanted to go on her own trip, but now that the factory has started, if she leaves, the success rate of sugar production will probably be greatly reduced, so she can't do without it.
Therefore, you can only find an agent to run the promotion.
When the time comes, many people come to the village to pull sugar, so it is more realistic to first repair the road leading from the village to the town, after all, the horse-drawn carts that have recently brought sugar cane have collapsed mud roads because the load is too heavy.
Su Wan felt that she really had a lot to do.
It turned out that he had a job, Cheng Cheng was relieved, "I understand, our white sugar is whiter and more crystal clear than the white sugar on the market, and we also have white sugar, which will definitely be welcomed by everyone, but I don't know what price the girl plans to set for our white sugar." ”
"White sugar is 100 wen a catty, and cotton white sugar is 120 wen a catty."
"What? So cheap? Cheng Cheng exclaimed in surprise, only then did he realize that his shouting made the surrounding villagers pay attention, and he quickly closed his mouth and pulled Su Wu out.
"Girl, the white sugar on the market is 300 wen a catty, and the white sugar is ten taels of silver a catty and can't be bought, the price we set is too cheap! How much more will you earn in the end to buy sugar cane and pay so many workers? "Cheng Cheng has also worked as a runner, and he has learned a little about the basics of business with the shopkeeper.
Since there is a sugar factory in the village now, he doesn't have to leave his hometown to work outside to earn more silver, Cheng Cheng is naturally happy, but if the sugar factory's revenue is not good, I am afraid it will not last long.
The employees they just hired were worried about the cost for themselves, which showed that the other party was very considerate of the sugar factory, "Don't worry, you can earn less if you make less, but you still have to make money." ”
As for her hope that more people will eat sugar and break the monopoly of those two companies, she can't understand this kind of thing.
"But, girl, this price is really too low, and if you do this, I'm afraid it will cause dissatisfaction among the two families."
"Even if I sell 300 wen a catty, they will still be dissatisfied, besides, the white sugar I produce myself, I can sell as much as I want to sell a catty, don't worry, just sell it at this price, the white sugar you sell, a ton of white sugar, give you a commission of one or two silver, well done, and you will be indispensable for dividends at the end of the year." According to Su Wan's price, a ton of white sugar is only sold for 200 taels of silver, and the cost and so on have to be removed, so the commission for Cheng Cheng is quite high.
After all, her family's white sugar will definitely be sought after in the future, and when those businessmen come to her house to buy, they will wholesale tons of goods, and the amount will go up, and Cheng Chengcheng will not lose.
"I see, don't worry, girl."
"Our family's white sugar is of good quality and cheap, you go out to talk to those businessmen with confidence, you don't need to negotiate any conditions with them at all, as for the contract, I have already written it here, at the beginning I will let Feng Jing take you out to run, and then it's up to you, follow Feng Jing to study hard, especially the numbers, these must not be mistaken."
"Yes, I see, Miss Su."
Su Wu couldn't leave by herself, and it was impossible to completely let Cheng Cheng go alone at the beginning, and she was relieved to let Feng Jing take it.
According to her experience in dealing with Feng Jing these days, Feng Jing is not stupid, he is actually very shrewd, just to say that he is literate, he is already a capable person in the ancient county town.
Su Wu naturally won't recruit Cheng Cheng alone, but also plans to find other people to learn with Feng Jing, only by teaching them to go out of the village and save enough basics, they will be able to support themselves in the future.
"Su Wan, I want to follow Cheng Cheng to run the business, I want to learn this." Cheng Xiaohong squatted outside the sugar factory, squatted to Su Wu, and hurriedly ran up and said her thoughts.
Seeing that there are girls who want to learn the skills of doing business, Su Wu is still very happy, although Shinong industry and commerce, merchants are not looked down upon, but who wants to live a difficult life?
Su Wan from modern times thinks it's good to rely on her ability to eat and not be cheated, and she can see that ancient girls don't rely on men and want to make money on their own, and it's too late for her to be happy.
However, if she should be reminded, she still has to remind, "Xiaohong, do you want to learn this?" Do you have a family member, you are a girl, it is not easy to run a merchant outside to sell sugar, you have to socialize these things, and you have to stay with a man, etc., can you afford it? You can't ride a horse, although Feng Jing and I will teach you, but can you stand the long journey on horseback? You may also encounter bandits on the road. ”
