146 [Flying Wings]
It was very quiet in the main hall, but the eyes of the young men never stopped meeting.
Pei Yue knew very well that he could not be anxious at this time, he had to wait for them to speak on their own, so as to take the subsequent initiative.
The secret of honeycomb briquettes is not complicated. Once the finished product is produced, any skilled craftsman can imitate it. Therefore, he must unite these rich and powerful young people to at least occupy all the natural coal mountains near Kyoto.
At that time, even if others can imitate briquettes, they will only be able to do this business elsewhere.
If they want to prepare briquettes from other prefectures and counties and then transport them to Kyoto, they must consider the long distance. There are no highways in this world, and transportation will take a lot of time and cost. By the time they finish the work and transport it to Kyoto, winter has long passed and the briquettes will be transported to Kyoto.
The dosage will be significantly reduced.
Of course, there are other troubles. For example, those strong companies can look for natural coal mountains near Gyeonggi, such as Yongzhou and Huazhou, and then transport them slowly, and then wait until winter comes to sell them in Kyoto. The sooner Pei can do this, the better.
There are countermeasures, and he even hopes that someone will do so.
Because the cost of briquettes is very low, Pei Yue can engage in a price war. However, if other companies ship from other places, the transportation costs alone will not be low, and they are not his opponents in any case.
Of course, Pei Yue never thought about taking over all the coal mountains in the world. As long as he could control the market inside and outside Kyoto, it would be enough for him to earn endless money. When he spreads the market, he will use money to manage all kinds of things.
If we have good relationships, we can continue to launch some high-end consumer products, such as the perfumes mentioned by Gu Fan and others before.
The most important thing at the moment is to tie these powerful children to his chariot, and with Gu Liang's very strong thigh supporting him, Pei Yue does not believe that anyone other than Tianjia can seek to seize his property.
.
I heard that the treasury has been very full in recent years. I guess the emperor will not be so shameless, right?
The atmosphere in the main hall is not unfamiliar to Pei Yue at all. He has experienced similar scenes many times in his previous life. From the beginning of a small workshop to the rapid development of seizing the right opportunity, he relied on his keen vision and outstanding abilities time and time again.
After conquering those collaborators and investors, the Xiangyun Group founded by one hand has also become a very promising upstart in the market.
If it hadn't been for that accident, perhaps he would have quickly become one of the top people on those rich lists.
Sun Qi looked at Pei Yue who was calm and composed, and his mind was filled with thoughts.
Only one of the two generations of descendants of Duke Shan Guo worked hard in the military, and he did not reach a high enough position, but no one in the noble circle would underestimate the Sun family. This is because his family has produced many business geeks who are very good at it.
In terms of business management, in terms of family wealth, the founding princes are the best. With a big business and many descendants, it is inevitable that there will be fierce competition.
Sun Qi is the second son and has an older brother. Although he is now in charge of some of the family's property, if he doesn't do much, he will definitely only be a manager in the future.
But if he could seize the opportunity to soar into the sky, not to mention the inheritance rights of the family business, he would still have the confidence to fight for the title that had been downgraded many times.
Pressing down the eagerness in his heart, he smiled calmly and said, "Brother Pei Xian, can you briefly tell me about the things you are going to make to keep warm?"
Everyone looked at Pei Yue curiously.
Of course, Pei Yue would not show off on this topic, and said calmly: "I like to read some ancient books when I have nothing to do, and I accidentally found a recipe from an ancient book. The coal cakes made with this recipe are smokeless, odorless, and have no
It is dangerous and very suitable for heating in winter. The average cost of each coal cake is about half a penny. If there are enough people, the daily output can fully meet the needs of the people of Kyoto."
Another ancient book.
Gu Fan couldn't help but rolled his eyes to the side.
At first, the recipe for spices was said to have come from ancient books, but now a recipe for coal cakes has appeared.
This guy really can't even think of a good excuse.
However, he just laughed a few words in his heart, and he would never break up the trouble at this time.
A fat young man asked with a smile: "Which ancient book is so magical? Can we also see it?"
Pei Yue smiled and shook his head: "No."
The young man was startled for a moment, then said with a smile: "So decisive? Aren't you afraid that we will turn around and leave now?"
Pei Yue stopped Gu Fan with his eyes and said calmly and confidently: "I invite you brothers here just to make money with you. If you don't want to, then of course I will find someone else. There are not many others in Kyoto who have money.
There is no shortage of powerful people, and there are always people who will not dislike the hot money. As for the prescription, at least for the time being, I will not tell anyone. Could it be that my brother wants to rob it by force?"
The young man laughed and said cheerfully: "I'm not Li Zijun, please don't mind, dear brother. I'm just worried about the future business. Just put us aside and play with those more powerful people."
."
Pei Yue looked as usual and said with a smile: "Even if you brothers don't believe in my character, you should not doubt the vision of brother Gu family."
That Lu Mangzi scolded the fat young man: "Yu Tong, I think you should just change your name to Yu Tongtong. Where do you come from so many sarcastic words? Since Brother Yue is the fourth young master's brother, why don't you just change your name to Yu Tong?"
Can you do those bad things?"
Yu Tong shook his head and said sternly: "What you hear is false, what you see is true. No matter how rare the fourth major general Pei Xiandi praises you, I have to see it with my own eyes before I can rest assured."
Gu Fan said angrily: "Are you satisfied after reading it?"
Yu Tong looked at Pei Yue and praised: "Although he is still young, he is a character who can do great things. I will follow this move."
Seeing that the little commotion had subsided, Sun Qi asked, "Brother Pei Xian, this business is possible, but I still want to hear your initial strategy and how you want to cooperate with us."
Pei Yue nodded and said: "I will tell you my thoughts first, and please correct me, brothers."
"In the coal cake business, the first step is to buy the coal mountain first. The initial investment is relatively large. Please don't leak the news to others for the time being. If others know about it, this matter will be very troublesome. Maybe the court will
Take action to stop it, or raise the price of coal mountain very high."
Gu Fan interrupted at the right time: "There are only eight people here today. If the news leaks out, don't blame me for not cherishing our friendship for many years. Even if you hide at home and don't come out, I will find you and chop you with a sword."
Everyone looked unhappy, but Pei Yue did not speak to smooth things over.
This is also the reason why he invited Gu Fan to attract people and sit here.
The concept of briquettes is too simple. Even if others don't know what they are going to do, they can always think of the use of the coal mountain. However, if you don't explain it clearly, others will not dare to invest money in it. After all, it is not just a few hundred taels of silver.
Fortunately, Gu Fan was able to control the situation. No one made a fuss at this time. Instead, they all laughed and joked, saying that there are no people who are not afraid of death.
At this time, Pei Yue needed to comfort him. He continued: "According to my rough calculation, if everything goes normally, the profit of the coal cake business is very objective. Calculated based on the peak coal consumption period in the three months from December to February in winter,
The gross profit is at least five hundred thousand taels of silver."
"Wow——"
