“…… All in all, thank you to all the bosses for coming to the meeting despite your busy schedule. Here, I solemnly announce that Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce has officially begun! ”

Yang Wanfu opened with a generous speech.

Then, a bookkeeper led a few guys, pushed a white paper painting screen, and carried a few wooden boxes into the lobby.

After all the objects were set up, the bookkeeper picked up a large brush and wrote a sentence on the white paper painting screen:

"Firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar tea, three meals a day to spend the New Year."

"As you can see, the topic of this year's selection is mainly 'food', and in general terms, as long as it is something that can be eaten in the mouth, it can be answered;

The rules are the same, each person can receive 1,000 taels of silver as the base money, and you can use this money to purchase freely, but remember that the silver is engraved with the logo of Yang's firm, which is not transferable, borrowed from each other, or forged, otherwise once found, it will be regarded as cheating and disqualified;

In addition, the selection of business can only be led by the younger generation of young owners, and the big owners cannot secretly assist, otherwise it will be treated as a cheat;

Finally, in order to ensure the fairness of the competition, we will send a 'silver book' to all the young owners, all the amount of goods sold, are recorded in the form of accounting, if it is sold to a merchant, the official seal of the merchant is required, if it is sold to an individual, it needs a personal handprint; how much money is sold, will be counted by me personally after the competition, and then withdrawn from Yang's firm. ”

At this point, the bookkeeper and the man made a look.

The man opened the wooden box, and the silver ingots with white flowers were neat and tidy.

Mr. Bookkeeper said: "In order to encourage the young leaders of our Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, the bonus amount of this selection has also been increased - 15,000 taels for champions, 8,000 taels for the list of eyes, and 5,000 taels for tanhua!" ”

All the young generation of businessmen are staring at the bonus of Baihuahua with tiger and wolf eyes, which is not only money, but also an honor.

"This competition is limited to seven days, that is, the end of the morning of the 10th day of the first month of April, now all young owners, please write down the products you have selected, and I will publicize them on the screen...... Half an hour of discussion is allowed. ”

The servants distributed silver taels, silver books, and pen and paper to each table.

All the merchants pulled their sons to each other and gave them advice.

"Listen to me, this competition is only seven days, if you sell some small goods, you will not be able to make a lot of money, so try to choose expensive things, in my opinion, bird's nest shark fin, eight treasures and eight treasures are the best." The old man pulled Song Che and Shen Wenjun and said.

Shen Wenjun said: "But the bottom money is only 1,000 taels, if the commodity is too precious, the quantity will be limited, and the money you can earn will be limited?" ”

The old man said: "Don't forget, your second uncle is the owner of the restaurant, and the usual wine and food are cheap." ”

Shen Wenjun was speechless for a while, and looked at Song Che: "What about you, do you have any good opinions?" ”

Song Che pursed his lips and said: "If you want to sell a lot of money in a short period of time, the product must be an attractive hit, and if you want to attract people, you must be novel...... Bird's nest shark fin, eight treasures and eight treasures are too common, it is estimated that many people will choose them, and there will be many more competitors invisibly, which is not very desirable, in my opinion, it is better to ......"

He picked up the pen and wrote the word "wine" on the slip of paper.

"You want to sell wine?" Shen Wenjun was surprised.

"Aren't you fooling around?" The old man immediately retorted: "In Yangzhou City, there is a wine shop in ten steps, a restaurant in a hundred steps, and tens of thousands of catties of wine are purchased by one thousand or two feet, and it is impossible to sell it out!" ”

Ordinary liquor, naturally, cannot be sold, but if it is distilled and purified, it is two concepts.

"The time for discussion has come, please put pen to paper." The bookkeeper gave a loud order.

The old man hurriedly wanted to grab the pen to change it, and Shen Wenjun touched his little finger lightly and pushed the brush to the ground.

When the old man picked up the brush, the note had already been collected by the servant.

The old man was so angry that he slapped the table: "Hmph! I won't even be able to get the principal back, I can't afford to lose this person! ”

"Dad, Song Che can sell 5,000 pieces of silk in one day, there must be a way to sell the wine." Shen Wenjun looked at Song Che with a firm gaze.

Song Che smiled and shook his head, indicating that there was no need to say more.

Soon, all the selected goods have been collected, and the bookkeeper will publicize the notes on the picture screen in turn:

"Yang Gongzi of Yang's Commercial Bank, the commodity he chose is 'Longjing Tea'."

"Wang Gongzi of Wang's Commercial Bank, the product selected is 'high-quality river fresh'."

"Chen Gongzi of Chen's Commercial Bank, the product he chose is 'fine bird's nest'."

"Li Gongzi of Li's Commercial Bank, the selected product is 'rare pastries'."

……

"Song Gongzi of Shen's firm...... Hey, why is the Shen family the son of Song? The bookkeeper was surprised at first.

Song Che rolled his eyes, is it necessary for his mother to come out with her surname alone?

"Because he's the son-in-law of the Shen family!" Chen Rencai saw the opportunity and mocked loudly.

"Then you shouldn't be called Childe, you should be called Uncle," Mr. Bookkeeper hurriedly changed his words, "Then Aunt Song's topic is...... Wine? He glanced at Song Che: "Are you sure you don't want to change it?" ”

The eyes of the whole house were all focused on the three members of the Shen family, more or less with the element of teasing.

The old man covered his face and was embarrassed.

Song Che said loudly: "Don't change, only sell wine!" ”

"You're afraid that if you got drunk this morning, you would want to sell your wine, right? Hahaha......" Chen Rencai crossed his hips and laughed.

Song Che didn't say much, and asked Mr. Xiang, "Sir, do you have anything else to explain next?" ”

The bookkeeper said: "It's nothing, the big owners stay in the business house for meetings, and the young owners can leave to do business on their own." ”

Song Che picked up the silver book, picked up the silver, and pulled Shen Wenjun to walk outside the hall.

Out of Yang's Commercial Bank, all the way to the Fuman Inn.

"Song Che, don't say I don't believe you, if you buy wine and resell it, it will be difficult to find a market, and the profit will be too low; If it is self-brewed, it is even more impossible, and it will take at least more than a month to ferment the grain wine, so how can you sell it? Shen Wenjun was very anxious.

Song Che was indifferent: "I neither resell nor brew myself, but use distiller's grains for distillation." ”

"Distillation...... Processing? Shen Wenjun was confused.

"Yes, just these 'four words' are worth the 10,000 taels of bonus for the first place," Song Che poked Shen Wenjun's forehead with his hand:

"It's called knowledge payment."
