Too vulgar

Go out from the east gate of the capital and walk along the Tonghui River for more than ten miles. The river here is wide and the terrain is flat and open. It is located in the middle section of the Tonghui River between Tongxian and the capital. There are woods and shrubs on both sides.

There are also large tracts of farmland everywhere.

This is the most suitable location for building a workshop. There are few people nearby, but it is only more than ten miles away from the bustling area of ​​​​the capital, and it can be reached by riding a horse and having a few cups of tea.

Moreover, the river here is wide, making it easy for merchant ships to pass. It is located on the edge of the water, and you can get as much yellow mud as you want.

At this time, several relatively simple houses had been built here, and many more were under construction. The first batch of white sugar had been produced through the yellow mud water leaching and decolorization method, which had little technical content but was time-consuming.

Looking at the white sugar as white as snow, Zhu Houzhao danced excitedly, "Master, can these sugars be sold for money now? I see this sugar, well, it looks like white silver."

"This is whiter than silver."

"Yes, yes, it is whiter than silver. Let's quickly exchange it for silver."

Xia Yuan rubbed his butt with his hands. He had just started to learn to ride a horse in the past few days. It was bumpy and grinding. He was really not used to it.

"Don't worry, just a few can be sold for a few dollars. These are experimental products at best. Let these people get familiar with the method of decolorizing sugar before we start to expand the scale."

Looking at the busy figures in the building, Zhu Houzhao said worriedly: "Master, are these people you are looking for reliable? You must not let them leak the secret recipe."

"They are all members of the same clan as the minister, so they are much more reliable than outsiders. Moreover, the minister has also spoken to them and asked them to keep their mouths shut, not even to their own family members."

No matter what you do in this era, the clan is the most at ease. Of course, in order to prevent the Xia clan from having unworthy descendants, Xia Yuan also gave a warning.

The bright red unicorn uniform looks majestic when worn on the body. These days, the hierarchy is very strict. When Xia Yuan had no official status before, the villagers of Xiajiazhuang could still act calmly when facing him, but now looking at that unicorn uniform,

Unconsciously, I used a respectful tone.

Not to mention that Xia Yuan also moved the prince out as a deterrent, so he will definitely keep it a secret, but it will not be clear in the future.

Now that sugar has not started to be sold, the huge profits have not yet appeared. When profits start to be made in the future, there will definitely be many people who want to use this decolorization method. When the time comes, these workers who know how to decolorize will be the best breakthrough.

Under the attack of money, there is no guarantee that money will not move people's hearts, so we must always be vigilant.

"Besides, the shops we bought haven't been renovated yet, so we have to wait a few more days before they can open."

"The shop we bought is ready-made. It can be used simply by tidying it up. We started decorating it a few days ago. Are you still decorating it now?"

"The decoration I'm talking about is different from the decoration Your Highness thinks. It's not a matter of tidying up, cleaning, and changing the sign. It needs to be extremely lavish, high-end and classy, ​​with a low-key luxury."

"If we go by what the master said, wouldn't it cost a lot of money just to decorate it?" Zhu Houzhao obviously showed the consistent essence of the Ming Emperor - he felt sorry for money. When he heard that he wanted to decorate with extremely lavish, high-end and low-key things, he felt

It started to hurt involuntarily.

"It will cost more, but you can't save money. Think about it, our sugar is priced high, so it must be sold in a luxurious shop, so that it complements each other.

Those rich people have a lot of money, but they are not necessarily stupid. If they see that our candy shop is so poor and sell it so expensively, they will feel that it is not worth it, so the better the shop is decorated, the higher the price will be.

The more expensive it sells.”

Zhu Houzhao began to think thoughtfully, and then nodded repeatedly, with a smile on his face, "It makes sense, I know that the master is the number one talent in the world, and even in this business, he is unparalleled."

"That's natural."

Faced with this kind of flattery, Xia Yuan accepted it shamelessly. Although he had never done business in his two lives, he had never eaten pork and never seen a pig run away?

In my previous life, I saw countless marketing models, large and small. I could just pull out a few and use them with a slight twist. The business of selling sugar is naturally a high-end luxury product.

Sugar is in great demand and there is a market. Human beings can never resist the joy and happiness brought by dopamine secretion.

Moreover, if people do not consume sugar, they will suffer from hypoglycemia.

But this is sugar, not white sugar. Sugar is necessary for the human body, but white sugar is not. Even if you don’t eat white sugar, you can still get sugar from fruits or some vegetables.

Therefore, if you want to make money with white sugar, you have to take the high-end route, especially since we haven’t started purchasing sugar cane yet, and the raw materials used for decolorization are the cheapest dark brown sugar on the market.

The cost has not yet been reduced, so the price has to be raised. The initial price is one tael of sugar and one tael of silver.

Is this price excessive?

Not too much at all.

Just like the first batch of white sugar produced, the cheapest dark brown sugar in the capital was used for decolorization. The market price of one tael of this dark brown sugar crystal is thirty-five cents.

As the color of the sugar becomes lighter, the price becomes more expensive, and the yellowish color of the sugar costs two hundred cents.

This is also the lightest-colored sugar on the market, and it costs two hundred cents.

So it only increased five times.

Definitely the conscience of the industry.

Don't mention the cost, the cost is also very high. It uses more than 30 yuan per tael of high-quality sugar and uses so much high-quality yellow mud.

There are so many people who still need to be paid for their hard work.

Okay, the cost may not be high, but this candy is sold to wealthy people, and it is not a trap for poor people. Xia Yuan does not have any psychological burden at all.

"Well, I guess it will be open in a few days. I have to think of a way to ask the emperor to help me mention a few words, such as the best sugar in the world, and then stamp it, and then hang it in the store. This level

It can be lifted up a lot in an instant."

"Why don't you let me mention it? I am a prince after all."

"you?"

Xia Yuan frowned and looked at him, "What kind of handwriting did His Highness write? Didn't you even know what it was like?"

"."

Zhu Houzhao was speechless for a moment, and then said unconvinced: "Isn't it just to mention a few words for the shop? I have been practicing the words "the best sugar in the world" these days, and I will definitely write beautifully when the time comes."

Xia Yuan believes this. This guy has a kind of stubbornness and unyielding in his heart, but can the status of the prince be compared with that of the emperor?

Obviously not.

"How could I have the nerve to let His Highness practice hard all day for just a few words, so I'd better forget it, and Your Highness also has very important things to do."

"What to do?"

"Your Highness is responsible for coming up with a name for our shop. It's about to open now, and we don't even have a signboard name."

"This is easy to do. It's called Facai Sugar Shop. You can make a lot of money and make a lot of money."

".Vulgar, vulgar is intolerable."
