Fang Qiong grabbed the wine bottle and said, "Whatever suits the taste of soldiers, this bottle of wine belongs to me." Fang Rui licked his tongue and said, "Second brother, you can't. You should leave some for the elder brother.
"As he spoke, he looked at Fang Xiaoyu. Seeing the two greedy grandpas looking for a bottle of wine, Fang Xiaoyu smiled, took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and said: "Grandpa, I have another one.
I’ll give you the bottle.”
Fang Rui stopped fighting with Fang Qiong. He happily took the porcelain bottle, opened the cork and smelled it. He found that the fragrance was exactly the same as the bottle just now, so he happily capped the bottle and put it in his arms.
Qiong watched with helpless eyes as Fang Rui put a whole bottle of wine into his arms, and asked with a smile: "Xiaoyu, do you still have this kind of wine?" Fang Xiaoyu nodded: "There are still some, but so do I.
It is in trial production, so there is not much output, and the brewing cycle of this wine is relatively long, so it will not be put into production soon."
Fang Qiong looked at the porcelain bottle and asked in surprise: "Did you make this wine?" Fang Xiaoyu nodded: "Yes, I must have a good idea. I still have many ideas that have not been implemented. Unfortunately, I don't have a handicraft workshop and I lack craftsmen.
, there are many things that can’t be made." After saying that, he glanced at Fang Qiong secretly.
Fang Qiong and Fang Rui looked at each other and said, "Xiaoyu, our family does have six relatively large workshops with more than a thousand craftsmen. If you need them, just take them all." Fang Rui also nodded.
Head: "I will also support you with some funds."
"I don't need so much." Fang Xiaoyu shook his head: "I know that our workshop also produces some goods for the shop. If I take them all away, our shop will suffer losses. I only need two workers.
The workshop and three hundred craftsmen are enough." Hearing that Fang Xiaoyu did not accept them all, Fang Qiong was relieved. After all, these craftsmen are the family's experiment in transforming from commerce to handicrafts, and they are also very important to the family. Fang Rui nodded in agreement: "
That's fine, I will send the best craftsmen to you, but you also have to make a promise to your grandfathers."
Fang Xiaoyu knew very well in his heart that no matter how close he was to his two grandfathers, no leader of their family would show favoritism. Because the first thing they had to consider was the rise and fall of the family, and the second was family ties. He looked at the two eyes full of hope.
Grandpa, Fang Xiaoyu directly showed his cards and said: "Of course, within a year, how about I can at least bring no less than three projects as profitable as Lanfangtang to the family?"
"Three?" Fang Rui and both of them took a breath. They had calculated that Lanfang Tang alone could bring millions of net profits to the family a year. If three more were needed,
times, the family can expand more workshops and farms, and establish a stronger business network. Moreover, these are unique products, and they can make huge profits even if they are used in transactions with other big families.
Fang Rui gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I will double the size of Lanting Villa and give you two thousand guards and three hundred craftsmen. These will be considered your property and not included in the family's property." Fang Rui said.
It is said that Fang Xiaoyu can establish another vassal family. It can be said to be very risky to let such a young child take charge of such a large industry. However, Fang Rui has confidence in Fang Xiaoyu. He has a vague feeling in his heart that Fang Xiaoyu will take over the family.
The Fang family was brought to the pinnacle of power.
Seeing the uncle's determined look, Fang Xiaoyu also solemnly said: "I will not let grandpa down. Not counting the development of my own industry, I will bring at least 20 million yuan in net profit to the family every year."
After hearing Fang Xiaoyu's assurance, Fang Rui and Fang Qiong looked at each other, and their eyes were full of smiles. A net profit of 20 million. You must know that even the Xiahou family, the royal family, the head of the four major families, if they are in
Without using the national treasury and royal treasury, the family's total assets are only five or six billion. If Fang Xiaoyu alone can bring a net profit of no less than 20 million to the family every year, then after twenty years, plus Fang Xiaoyu
With the development of Xiaoyu's own industry, the ranking of these four major families will change.
Seeing the smiles in the eyes of the two grandfathers, Fang Xiaoyu added: "And I only want 10% of the profits from any project I give to the family." Fang Xiaoyu has a very good impression of the Fang family, and his family cares about him so much.
, he naturally also wants to seek benefits for the family. Then Fang Xiaoyu pointed to the half bottle of wine in Fang Qiong's arms and said: "This wine is my second project for the family."
Back home, Fang Xiaoyu put all the wine in the equipment inventory into large porcelain jars and sealed them with mud. Fang Qiong planned to keep some of the wine to drink during the New Year, and put the rest into small bottles to give away.
The advertisement was advertised in advance. This was only prompted by the second grandfather’s gift of Lanfang Candy to the emperor, which caused a sensation.
The New Year is the most lively time of the year. Everyone in the entire family who can come back has come back, and everyone gathers together to enjoy the rare joy. Fang Rui, as the patriarch, led the family to hold a grand ancestor worship activity. After the ancestor worship, the New Year
The banquet started that night, and the exquisite dishes were placed on the table like water. When Fang Rui brought up the two large porcelain jars, everyone was conquered by the rich aroma of wine. Of course, there was not that much wine.
All the drinkers only got a small cup each. But just such a small cup left everyone with endless aftertaste. When they knew that this kind of wine was made by Fang Xiaoyu just like the snow-white Lanfang candy, everyone looked at his
The eyes are different.
The uncles were still holding themselves back and had no reaction, but several brothers went to get close to Fang Xiaoyu, especially the eldest brother Fang Dingguo, who insisted that Fang Xiaoyu give him more. Among the brothers, Fang Dingguo had the best relationship with Fang Xiaoyu, so naturally he was not good
He refused and just said that after the next batch of wine came out, he would give Fang Dingguo a few bottles, which satisfied him.
The tedious ancestor worship activities lasted for three days, and with the family celebration afterwards, the seven days passed quickly. After the New Year, all the uncles and brothers went out to do their own things. There were only three grandfathers in the family.
, uncle Fang Weiming, eldest brother Fang Dingguo, and third brother Fang Dinggui, the three who choose to do business, are often at home, and the others are just family members.
Of course, there is one more person who lives at home this year, the fifth uncle Fang Weiqun who has just been transferred back from other provinces to serve in the Imperial Guard. This fifth uncle used to be a division commander stationed in the southern border. This time he was transferred back to the Imperial Guard and still remains.
Ren was a teacher, but his rank was one level higher. Fang Xiaoyu felt that this might have been secretly arranged by Xia Jun. This was a hint to show his sincerity in forming an alliance with the Fang family.
Of course, these political matters are not what Fang Xiaoyu can involve. What he is thinking about now is how to make money. The history of Wangxiangxing is a history of rapid development, but the result of rapid development is a lack of foundation, just like the motherland in previous lives.
, the three-hundred-year development path of the Western world has been completed in thirty years, but rapid development has brought huge social contradictions, and many problems that have not appeared in Western countries in the development process have emerged.
The same is true for Wangxiangxing. The rapid development has allowed the main technology to develop rapidly, but it has also left many details lacking, such as sugar and liquor, which are things that have been ignored in the rapid development. Therefore, in this world,
If it comes to making money, it may be difficult for others, but it is absolutely easy for Fang Xiaoyu.
Just after the New Year, Fang Xiaoyu said goodbye to his reluctant mother and returned to Lanting Villa with Zhang Tong, Liu Junxi and some domestic slaves, pulling several large carts of food and toys. It must be said that the Fang family's work efficiency is very high.
High. Today, Lanting Villa covers an area of 400 square kilometers, which is almost half the size of other counties. Fortunately, this is the capital of Zhongjing Prefecture, Zhili County. The area of Zhongjing Prefecture is enough
Other counties are as big as one county, and this place is a bit remote, which makes Lanting Villa not so conspicuous.
Sun Huaizong and several people were already waiting outside the gate of the villa, while Lin Feng brought out the children. Fang Xiaoyu happily greeted everyone and ordered Zhang Tong and others to share food with everyone and give toys to everyone.
After sending the children away, Sun Huaizong stayed. He cupped his hands and said: "Congratulations, young master, you can be independent from now on."
Fang Xiaoyu waved his hands and said: "There is nothing to congratulate. Even if independence is an opportunity, it is also a challenge. We must work harder in the future." Sun Huaizong smiled and said: "The villain will do his best to pay the young master." Fang Xiaoyu nodded and said: "I believe it.
We will definitely succeed. Has anything happened recently when I'm not here?" Sun Huaizonghui reported: "The great master sent someone here yesterday and delivered some land deeds, which are nearby wastelands, totaling more than one hundred square kilometers.
, enough for us to develop for a long time. The visitor also brought 500,000 yuan, saying it was for the young master's construction funds. He also said that 300 craftsmen would come over in a few days." Fang Xiaoyu nodded: "Very good,
You will have to work hard these days. Once the construction is completed, we will wait and count the money."
Seeing the surprisingly high profits of Lan Fang Tang, Sun Huaizong already had blind confidence in this young master. He immediately asked: "Master, what are your orders?" Fang Xiaoyu said: "First, continue digging trenches.
We need to build a lookout post as soon as possible. Our things are becoming more and more valuable, and many people will be jealous. One hundred square kilometers of the relatively barren area at the foot of Lanting Mountain has been designated as the land for our workshop. Other places must be
The land has been leveled and we will open up wasteland in the spring. If there are not enough people, go to the nearby villages to hire some. Anyway, we are not short of money now."
Originally, Fang Xiaoyu planned to grow food on Lanting Mountain, but the plan could not keep up with the changes. Now that there is so much land, the terraces on Lanting Mountain are not so important. Fang Xiaoyu considered planting all fruit trees. Sun Huaizong did not understand: "Master, actually we can
Put up a wooden fence outside the river ditch. The wood is very cheap. As long as we find more craftsmen and build it in sections, it can be built in a few months. Even the lookout post is the same." Fang Xiaoyu said: "But where can I find it?
There are so many craftsmen, and it’s hard to repair such a long fence.”
Sun Huaizong thought for a while, and it was indeed the case. The wood was very cheap, but it was seven hundred square kilometers. It cost millions, not to mention that the wooden fence was not durable. Seeing that Sun Huaizong did not speak, Fang Xiaoyu said again: "But you
The idea is indeed a good one. Let's do this. Let's dig another ditch around the industrial area and build wooden fences and lookout posts in the ditch. As for other fields, we can send farm slaves to the fields and let them form a team.
Each small village protects its own crops, which not only saves the defense force, but also adds many empty houses in the villa." Sun Huaizong worried: "But what if those domestic slaves lose control and escape?
Fang Xiaoyu smiled mysteriously: "I have my own way of doing this."
