Chapter 606: Earn More Flower Family's Request for Help
"Selling monster meat?" Jiang Xingchen frowned. Grandpa Fu said this, and it must be because of the tight funds.
"What? Is there another place to use money?" Jiang Xingchen asked.
"The investment in the first phase of the base construction is not enough!" Grandpa Fu said with a serious expression: "After the disaster, the prices of materials across the country soared, and coupled with the skyrocketing transportation costs, if construction starts now, the actual cost will be twice as high as the budget... The most important of them is hematite, which are directly controlled by the empire and must be transported from outside Qingshanling. Now the freight alone is twice as high as before!"
Jiang Xingchen pondered and said, "Didn't we prepare a lot of supplies before the disaster?"
"The materials we prepare are mostly about living and eating, and there is very little hematite stockpiling. It's not that I don't want to prepare, but during the disaster, if we buy a large amount of hematite, there will be the Empire..." Grandpa Fu explained.
Jiang Xingchen nodded. Grandpa Fu did the right thing. At that time, the Duan family was building the embankment of Heluotang. Xingchen Ling had no construction task. At this time, you bought a large amount of hematite ore. It would be strange if the emperor did not suspect that you rebel.
Grandpa Fu looked at Jiang Xingchen and continued, "And, our territory is not without its impact. The hundreds of thousands of cows raised have lost 30%... Nowadays, thousands of wild wolves, a large number of ants, and the wages of nearly a thousand orcs in the cold iron ore, as well as your private soldiers, research institutes, papermaking workshops, cement workshops, blacksmith workshops, and the people working in the territory are too much consumption!"
After a moment of pause, Grandpa Fu said again: "The current income of the territory has dropped sharply, and the production of honey and strong liquor is not high. Gouyaku juice and Dafulai are sold to the empire, and these incomes are only enough to support the people in our territory... I don't know how long it will take to recover from this disaster. Lord... Now we will either suspend work temporarily or we will have to sell monster meat!"
"I understand!" Jiang Xingchen sucked his teeth helplessly. He didn't want to sell monster meat. Now the entire empire is suffering, but he is making a lot of money by selling monster meat here. It's really arousing hatred.
In addition, the number of his private soldiers has also increased. He also thought that if there is no problem with the loyalty of private soldiers in the future, he would use these monster meat to improve their combat effectiveness. But now... it won’t be possible if you don’t sell it!
"Judge Qi, people from the world's business companies are asking for a visit!" Jiang Xingchen had just made a decision and was about to sell the meat of a monster. His subordinate's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
Jiang Xingchen raised his head, looked outside the door, signaled Grandpa Fu to wait first, and ordered: "Please come in!"
In a short while, the old acquaintance Wang Yuan pushed the door and entered the room, bowing to pay homage.
Jiang Xingchen has a very good impression of Wang Yuan, and the reason why tea can be grown and developed is made great contributions. Therefore, when he saw that the person coming was Wang Yuan, Jiang Xingchen stood up with a smile and reached out to support him. He didn't even need to be polite.
"Sir, the president asked me to come. All the 50 kilograms of tea transported to the sand sea have been sold. I'll send you 30,000 stones!" Before Jiang Xingchen could ask, Wang Yuan immediately explained his purpose.
"How many?" Jiang Xingchen and Sun Sanqiang exclaimed at the same time, with an incredible expression. 30,000 stones. That is 30 million yellow crystal coins, which is equivalent to the sum of the previous income of the three Star Teahouses.
This is how many kilograms of tea? Fifty kilograms! Last year, the three Xingchen Teahouses consumed 150 kilograms a year. This means that the world's business sells three times the price of Xingchen Teahouse in Shahai.
Sun Sanqiang has always been in charge of Xingchen Teahouse. He understands this account very well, no wonder he is surprised.
Jiang Xingchen didn't expect that he knew that things were precious because they were rare. He had the idea for Qin Manwu to sell tea with auction... But even so, he didn't expect to sell such a high price. You should know that 30,000 yuan of stones were for him, and the world's trading companies still had to make money, that is, these fifty kilograms of tea must be sold more.
Grandpa Fu's eyes were all over. He didn't care about how many times the tea was sold in the sand sea to the teahouse. The 30,000 stone was real, that was 30 million yellow crystal coins, which was enough to solve the urgent problem.
Then, Jiang Xingchen also laughed. With this money, he didn't have to sell the monster meat! Moreover, he also understood the meaning of Qin Manwu asking Wang Yuan to come over, which was to ask for more tea share. Wang Yuan was his old acquaintance and had made contributions to growing tea, so it was most suitable for him to speak out.
Jiang Xingchen was also happy to go with the flow. Now that the empire is suffering, the members of Xingchen Teahouse are lost, and they cannot use so much tea. It just happened to take this opportunity to push the tea into the sea of sand, and that would make more money.
As expected, Jiang Xingchen just thought of this, Wang Yuan said, "Sir, tea is sold so well in the sand sea. Do you think you will increase your share..."
"Haha!" Jiang Xingchen smiled and said, "Miss Qin already knows the loss of members of Xingchen Teahouse, right?"
"This... is!" Wang Yuan nodded with a wry smile.
"Okay, no problem, Xingchen Teahouse lost 70% of its customers, and I will ask you to take them back with you about a hundred kilograms of tea!" Jiang Xingchen smiled and patted Wang Yuan.
"Ah! Thank you, Lord Lord!" Wang Yuan was overjoyed and almost jumped up. Just as Jiang Xingchen expected, the previous 50 kilograms of tea was auctioned at a high price of 50,000 yuan stones. Xingchen received 30,000 yuan stones, and the world's trading company also recorded 20,000 yuan. Even Qin Manwu, who was in charge of this matter, gave a prize of 1,000 yuan stones, which was millions of yellow crystal coins.
Therefore, Wang Yuan was so excited when he heard Jiang Xingchen say he would give him another 100 kilograms.
"In two months, summer tea will be picked, and some can be distributed to the world's merchants!" Wang Yuan was excited and Jiang Xingchen gave him a bombshell.
"What!" Wang Yuan was stunned, and then he felt every cell in his body cheering from inside to outside. He wanted to control his emotions, but he could not control the corners of his mouth that was rising upwards.
Grandpa Fu sighed a long time ago, and there was no need to worry about money. Fifty kilograms of tea are 30 million, and another hundred kilograms are 60 million. Adding Sun Sanqiang's seven million, a total of 100 million is enough, no matter how you consume it, it's enough.
After a while, Wang Yuan finally calmed down and bowed and said, "Thank you, Master, President Qin must be very happy to hear this news... I will leave!"
"Yeah!" Jiang Xingchen nodded. He did not ask how many auctions the World Trading Company had in Shahai. This was the most basic trust. He also believed in Qin Manwu. The ones he gave to him must be Big Head!
Wang Yuan walked out, and Jiang Xingchen also took a step forward. When he arrived at the door, Wang Yuan seemed to suddenly hear something. He paused under his feet and asked, "Sir, I just remembered something. The leader of the Nanhuang Gongli clan asked me to bring you a message, saying that if you want to take Chuncha, you must tell him!"
"Ah?" Jiang Xingchen didn't understand the taste for a moment.
Wang Yuan patted his forehead and said, "The leader of the Gongli clan is the one who spent five million to buy spring tea at the auction!"
"Oh!" Jiang Xingchen then knew what was going on. He remembered that the one who bought spring tea was a man in weird clothes. He could tell at a glance that he was not from the empire, but from the Southern Wilderness.
The native tea is Nanhuang, but the tea stir-frying technique is unique to Jiang Xingchen. When he could not grow it, he always used the fried tea to exchange for fresh leaves there.
"Okay!" Jiang Xingchen agreed without thinking. The production of spring tea is so small that he only fryed less than three kilograms two days ago. In other words, he only took out some of them at the auction, otherwise there would be no possibility of selling them to the public.
After Wang Yuan left, Sun Sanqiang also left. The 150 kilograms of tea had been distributed to three teahouses before, so he had to quickly take it back and send it to the World Store.
After Grandpa Fu left with satisfaction, Jiang Xingchen sat in the room and fell into deep thought.
Now he is watching all aspects of his attack, with many industries in his hands, including planting, breeding, production, etc., but none of them have formed a scale. If it is just commercial development, it will definitely be enough. However, it is still far from enough for territorial construction and the two places where the research institutes are burning money.
"Come on step by step, it's much better now than starting! When the second phase of the territory is completed, the area of the new town can reach 300 square miles, and more people will pour in to develop a certain industry into scale..."
Jiang Xingchen sat in the room for an entire afternoon, re-examined the veins in his mind, and then left the room and prepared to go to the research institute.
But not long after he left the lord's mansion, a private soldier chased after him panting and said that Yueying had written a letter.
Jiang Xingchen began to think it was Mei'er's letter and told him when he would return from his studies. Unexpectedly, when he opened it, it was a letter from the Hua family.
Specifically, this is a letter of help, which said that the two Yangliu companies in Yueying Kingdom suddenly launched a kind of fragrant powder. The quality is very high, not bad at all compared to the Hua family, but the price is only 70% of the Hua family's. Now the Hua family's shops have been greatly impacted and have accumulated a lot of inventory.
At first, the head of Hua family wanted to fight by reducing the price as last time. But soon he realized that he could not fight the price at all. They also cut the price, without any hesitation.
Not to mention this, this time the Yangliu companies had a very sufficient supply of goods, and there was no out of stock for many consecutive days.
The head of the Hua family also asked if there was a large number of goat sickles found in Xuanyuan Tianzong, and the Yangliu family rekindled. However, the final investigation result was that the fragrant powder sold on the market was not produced by Yangliu companies, but was directly transported from the Dali Kingdom.
Now the Hua family is operating at a loss every day and is almost unable to withstand it. This time, they are asking Jiang Xingchen to study the new spice that he mentioned very early!
After reading the letter, Jiang Xingchen breathed gently and whispered: "Xian Ning has another research project this time!" (To be continued)
