0018 Commencement
Liu Haojia was extremely surprised when he heard this! Is this still the old dad who practices martial arts all day? How can I seem to know everything in the world better than I, who has experienced thousands of years of culture and modern culture! And since he sees it so clearly, why is the Liu family still in a slump?
So Liu Haojia wanted to ask this question, but he didn't want to question his father directly, so he just opened his mouth in the end!
But at this time, Father Liu said with a smile: "Do you want to say, Lao Tzu, I talked about things from the beginning, why did you let Gu Ningbo's Mansion fall to this point?" ”
Liu Haojia grinned embarrassedly, but still nodded vigorously. And Father Liu took a sip of the teacup and said, "I have been thinking about how to revitalize Gu Ningbo Mansion all day long, and I can naturally think of something!" But although I can see things clearly, when the title came to me, Gu Ningbo's Mansion had no money! And if you can't do anything without money, what can I do? After all, I don't know how to operate, I can only do martial arts! So I can only practice martial arts diligently, hoping that one day I will be able to fight in the future, so that I can rely on military merits to revitalize Gu Ningbo Mansion! You know, the only way not to be suppressed at this time! In addition, do you know why our family has been able to get away with it until now? ”
Listening to what his father said thoroughly, Liu Haojia also let go of his courage and whispered: "Isn't it because our family is completely harmless?" After all, our Gu Ningbo Mansion has been excluded from Xungui, and there is only an empty courtyard! ”
But Liu Fu smiled bitterly and said: "That's not the case at all!" It's because there are two people of equal strength in the courtyard of our Gu Ningbo Mansion now, and they can't take each other for a while, so they tolerate our family to survive until now! Believe it or not, now no one dares to buy it even if you want to sell the yard! And I don't dare to sell it yet, if I sell it to one person, I will offend another, and then I will be even more unlucky! ”
Liu Haojia was taken aback when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Which two families are they?" This is the enemy of life and death! ”
Father Liu waved his hand and said, "You don't have to think about it so much now, you will naturally know in the future!" Besides, if our family's plan succeeds this time, they will naturally stop! If they don't stop, you'll need to plan! ”
After saying that, Father Liu put down the teacup and went out, leaving Liu Haojia with a dazed face! Liu Haojia knew at this time that things were never as simple as they seem! At this time, he despised the ancients and disappeared without a trace, but tried to remind himself to be careful!
Because the current situation is like a joke he heard before, when you have an argument with a fool, the fool will pull you to the same level as him, and then use his experience to beat you!
Although this metaphor is not very appropriate, at the beginning, Liu Haojia didn't treat these ancient people as fools! But only now did he realize that these people were making good use of the existing rules, and they had nowhere to start! Liu Haojia felt that it was necessary to adjust the plan, otherwise, if the time dragged on for a long time, I was afraid that there would be many dreams at night!
Early the next morning, Liu's father and Liu Guangyuan went out, and the two of them were going to determine the procurement channels for brown sugar and lemon fruit. And they have to contact more than one channel to guarantee the security of supply! As for Liu Haojia, he took the Jinbao brothers to buy tools. And Liu Haonian was waiting at home for Zhang Shiping to send someone to take away all the snow candy!
Now the entire Liu family has been completely mobilized! With Snow Sugar, a source of wealth from heaven, Father Liu has already put all his bets on this! It's done, Gu Ningbo's Mansion is in the middle of the rise! Defeat is defeat! Father Liu has even quietly prepared, if necessary, he will let Liu Guangyuan protect Liu Haojia's brothers from the capital division, and he will stay to meet the final storm!
After a few busy days, a few people finally got everything done, and the action was quite secretive! Not only do outsiders not know the specific situation, but even the merchants who supply them with brown sugar and lemon fruit do not know who bought the goods and where they will be sent. The whole thing went on without any surprise, and no one discovered the secret!
It wasn't long before merchants noticed that sugar seemed to be particularly popular in the Jingshi market this year, so they increased the supply and raised the price! As for the people who spend money, they don't care about the price increase at all!
Because all the people who can afford to consume sugar food are all big families and wealthy businessmen, and spending a few taels of silver is a dime a dozen for them! Not even a drop in the bucket! As for the fact that although there were a few complaints from some medium-sized families and some merchants such as restaurants and dim sum shops, no one noticed that anyone was buying brown sugar in the market!
As for the small courtyard of the Liu family, it is a different scene! The whole family of the Liu family was in full swing to process snow sugar, and even Liu's mother and Huancui also removed their jewelry, put on coarse cloth clothes to help light the fire and boil sugar! The relatively leisurely one is Liu Haojia! But he wasn't idle, for he had to go from stove to stove and show them what to do!
Soon, a large number of snow sugar was produced, and then it was packed into wooden barrels specially customized by Liu Haojia. The wooden barrel is not large, and a wooden barrel can only hold 30 catties of snow sugar. After the barrel is filled with snow sugar, it is covered with a lid and sealed, and it is sent to the room for storage! Then it was transported from the quietly opened courtyard wall into Gu Ningbo's Mansion and handed over to Zhang Shunping!
Time flies by quickly in this hectic, and in the blink of an eye, the New Year is less than a month away! However, the high price of sugar this year has naturally caused some people to complain!
These people are all people who have a little extra money, and they are going to make more snacks and prepare some candy for their children during the New Year! However, the price of sugar has risen by 50% compared to last year! But the amount they use is small, so after complaining, they simply reduced some of the purchase quantity and it passed!
But in other places, things are different! Because during this time, Zhang Shunping was not idle. He carried out pre-publicity according to his own ideas and Liu Haojia's prompts. However, he did not do any publicity in the market at all, but found another way. He set his sights on the people with the sweet tooth the most!
There is a green building in Jingshi, called Mingyue Tower! There is a top girl named Mingyue in the building! Of course, it's not that there is a Mingyue Building because the top girl is called Mingyue, but all the top girls in Mingyue Tower over the years are called Mingyue! And all the bright moon girls over the years are both beautiful and artistic!
