533 - In short supply
Hearing Yao Yu's words, everyone was stunned, and they couldn't believe that their ears had heard it wrong: "My lord, so much ice only costs ten yuan?" You're not kidding. โ
"Look, what's the joke. This thing is not worth much in the first place, and in the past, it was only raised by the price of the powerful. โ
Everyone: "ยทยทยท"
Even if it was lifted, it was too bad.
Just when everyone was thinking in their hearts, Yao Yu smiled and asked, "What's the matter, everyone, come on?" โ
When he said this, everyone came to the spirit, rolled up their sleeves and said, "If you want to say so, then come and do something." โ
Especially the old man before, he took a picture of twenty yuan at once: "My lord, I want forty catties." โ
Yao Yu sighed: "Uncle, don't, this thing melts quickly, let alone forty catties, it is twenty catties, and it will all turn into water tomorrow." It's not worth it. The best thing is to find a few neighbors and friends, and it is better to buy one piece for five people. โ
The old man raised his head: "Don't be afraid, my son is a soldier in the military camp, and he receives a lot of military salary subsidies every month." Money is a lot of money. The old man has lived so big, and he is also extravagant. โ
Hearing the old man's words, Yao Yu smiled: "That old man, since this is the case, I can't say that I haven't reminded you." Lu Bi, fill the old man with ice. โ
Lu Bi agreed, took it out from the water tank with nitrate in the mezzanine next to it, cut it square, and added forty catties of ice together.
When the old man saw it, he put his hand on it, and for a moment, he felt the coldness all over his body: "That's how it feels." โ
Seeing this, Yao Yu couldn't help but say, "Uncle, you better get this thing back as soon as possible, or it will all melt on the road in a while." โ
Everyone nodded: "That's it, old man, why don't you take it back quickly after you buy it." We're waiting. โ
The old man pushed his wheelbarrow over, carried the ice, and went home.
There was an old man who made a sample, and the rest of the people also bought it quickly.
Although ice is not precious in modern times, it is the best choice for people who did not have cooling technology in ancient times.
What's more, this kind of luxury, which was only affordable for aristocratic lords in the past, is now so cheap that nine out of ten people want to be extravagant.
The rest of the person was also suffering from not having so much money, so he chose to buy a party back with neighbors, relatives and friends.
If you don't put it in the wine, it's not cool to drink if you put it in the water.
In this way, hundreds of catties and thousands of catties of ice were made last night, and they were bought almost instantly.
That's it, there are at least ninety percent of the people who came to see the excitement and more than ninety percent of them didn't buy it.
Seeing that the people were excited, Yao Yu smiled and pressed his hands down: "Everyone, everyone, don't be nervous, everyone has it." These are just the first ones to be made. Soon, the next batch came, and everyone waited. โ
With Yao Yu saying this, the people gradually quieted down.
No, in order to buy it earlier, many people paid in advance, so that they could take it home as soon as the ice was delivered.
Wait, about twenty minutes later, more than 2,000 catties of ice were pulled out from the ice factory.
The ice was swung forward, and there was no need to get close, and the scene immediately felt a coolness.
And because there is saltpeter constantly warming, even if the sun is so scorching, there is no need to worry about melting.
Soon, the two thousand catties of ice were sold out. And depending on the situation, the number of people buying ice has not decreased, but also increased.
After all, many people who bought ice and went back spread the word, and more and more people who got the news couldn't come to see it.
In addition, the family with a woman working in the ice factory got the news in advance, and it came even earlier.
To put it simply, in one word, supply exceeds demand.
The ice factory produces 10,000 catties of ice a day, but it is still not enough for Gangneung City, which has more than 100,000 people.
On average, ten people don't get a pound of ice.
When night fell, Yao Yu couldn't help beating his shoulders tiredly, and said to the people who didn't even go to work in the fields in order to buy ice: "Fellow villagers, fathers and elders. Today's portion has been sold out, and if you want to buy it, let's hurry up tomorrow. โ
All the people sighed: "It's not an adult, I've been queuing here for a day." โ
"That's no way, there are so many people in Gangneung, and only this one point of sale will definitely not be able to buy it. Well, I'll talk to Master Suo about it when I go back tonight. Tomorrow there will be more points in town. How about making sure everyone can buy ice? โ
As soon as Yao Yu said this, everyone left satisfied.
When leaving, these people couldn't help but sigh, saying something that was a pity, after all, they could almost buy ice themselves.
In this way, seeing the people go away, Yao Yu asked people to clean up the stalls, and then turned his head and called Suo Hong, facing today's account.
Today's total income is around 5,000 yuan, which is not too much.
But the main problem is that there are only 5,000 texts, not because the market is not enough, but because the work efficiency cannot keep up.
Otherwise, Yao Yu felt that it would be 50,000 yuan.
This is only in Jiangling, if ice factories are opened all over Jingzhou, then how much money should be earned this summer.
4,000,000 people, 800,000 households.
According to the five households, it was 1.6 million yuan that day.
That's 48 million a month. Although it has been a month since the summer, the weather in the autumn tiger will last for a month, which means that Yao Yu still has three months to earn money.
After deducting these three months of labor and venue costs, it is still easy to earn 100 million silver dollars.
More importantly, the people of Jingzhou are hot, and the people in other places are also hot.
This is also the Jingzhou family has been hit by themselves, otherwise, these powerful people are the main force in the consumption of ice cubes.
You can take the opportunity to sell ice cubes, and at that time, the money is not endless?
When the time for the ice cubes has passed, the briquettes can be sold.
Let's just say that relying on these two things alone, Jingzhou's finances will be vigorously supplemented.
No, if you calculate this account, Suo Hong has an indelible smile on his face, it's like eating bee droppings.
This time, Yao Yu didn't need to say, he himself began to think about when to start building an ice factory.
Seeing that Suo Hong was so enthusiastic, Yao Yu hurriedly stopped: "Don't don't, don't don't, don't not, as soon as the Jiangling City market opens, you will start to spread the whole Jingzhou." Too anxious. Anyway, we have to wait for the ice-making technology to be more mature. I figured it out, this year is just for making a name for yourself. If you can, we'll roll it out again next year. โ
