Chapter 120: Clever Little Master
Shopkeeper Hong saw that the time was not early, and decided to tell the matter earlier, and then let the little young master rest earlier.
"Young master, today is really a big harvest in the Zhou family, that soy sauce is really a good thing. The soy sauce was put in the dish, and the taste was much improved, and it was very fragrant, and the color was also beautiful, which raised the grade of the whole dish. It is completely full of color, fragrance and taste. "Thinking of the food today, he had eaten so much that he had eaten at night, but now he actually felt saliva coming out of his mouth again, as if he was hungry again.
Quickly reined in his thoughts, "And young master, the people of the Zhou family said that soy sauce is very good, and it won't be bad for a few years, soy sauce is like water, and it is very convenient to transport it anywhere when the time comes." ”
"Young master, the Zhou family also said that this soy sauce is a seasoning product, something that every family needs, it is like salt, young master, think about it, how much can you earn from this salt, this soy sauce may not be as good as salt, but it can be at least half. Young master, how much silver should I earn a year with half of the salt. "Salt is the most valuable thing in the hands of the whole country, and none of those salt merchants are so fat that they are so fat that the salt tax alone is eaten by those black-hearted officials and merchants, and the annual tax revenue is at least a few million taels.
If the silver that should be earned by salt alone is at least ten million taels a year, which is a lot of money.
When Jin Liulang heard this, he also became serious, a young man actually has the demeanor of a little man.
The book in his hand was put on the table, and the whole person was very quiet, he didn't speak for a long time, and his eyes were as deep as the sea.
His hand rhythmically tapped on the tabletop, making a dangdang sound, and Shopkeeper Hong also knew that the little young master was thinking about something, so he quickly closed his mouth and didn't say anything else.
Jin Liulang is not a fool, he naturally knows how profitable this soy sauce should be when the time comes, and at the same time, he also knows that the Jin family must have occupied the business of this soy sauce. It's just that what kind of occupation this occupation is, you still have to think carefully.
Although this salt earns silver, it is not something that can be swallowed by one person, otherwise the emperor would not know that those officials, merchants and the like get so much silver from salt every year, so they can only endure it, and they can't put all the salt and silver into the treasury, and they can't do anything at all.
If soy sauce really has such a great ability, their Jin family can't swallow it.
"Does anyone else know about soy sauce? What does the Zhou family's soy sauce business mean? Kimrokuro asked, raising a pair of dark eyes.
"Young master, don't worry, the Zhou family hasn't told anyone else about this. The Zhou family is not a fool, but don't look at the people of the Zhou family as rural people, there are still smart people in them. Listening to their meaning, the soy sauce has been made a long time ago, but not a drop has been sold, and they have counted it in their hearts. It's just that the Zhou family insists on one point, they definitely don't sell secret recipes, but ask for cooperation and share. The shopkeeper Hong thought that before he left, he inadvertently reminded the Zhou family to keep this matter secret, and the Zhou family's assurance, for the time being, the Zhou family can still be trusted, but he is not worried.
"Hehe, it's interesting to divide it, this week's family really doesn't look like an ordinary rural person. However, it's not impossible to share, and you always have to give some sweetness. Jin Liulang showed a smile, but with a weird smile on his face, Shopkeeper Hong couldn't figure out what his young master really meant, but it seemed that this seemed to be a promise to cooperate, and he was relieved in his heart.
