A few years ago, this word was unfamiliar to even Li Sheng's good friend Lao Li, but now...
Having been exposed to it for many years around the West Lake Industrial Zone, businessmen throughout Hangzhou already know how powerful this spell is.
Something that costs one hundred cents can be turned into eight cents or even five cents for you in minutes!
With such a useful tool at hand...
It is impossible for Huang Yuanwai not to consider this approach.
But then again, as we all know, the path you want to take is not something you can take. The path you can think of will undoubtedly be thought of by others. Soon Huang Yuanwai discovered that the sugarcane wine business...
Not only are they available in the city of Hangzhou, but there are also a lot of them in the wilderness outside the city. Although the quality varies... to put it bluntly, they are obviously not as good as those wineries in the city, but there are still good ones.
In short, this situation is basically equivalent to, if I still want to continue the business of sugar cane wine, then in the future, maybe... I will have to find another way to try to reduce the cost of this business.
As for how to get down?
Huang Yuanwai didn't have any ideas at first. In fact, it could even be said that he almost gave up on this thing.
but……
Ever since I found out that His Majesty was going to bring the defeated Tuyuhun, the Xianbei people of Goguryeo, and some Tubo people to the south as slaves, Huang Yuanwai was extremely excited - although it was a pity that he would not be a slave for life, but... if...
If we can get a batch of sugarcane wine, wouldn’t the cost of sugar cane wine be greatly reduced?
After all, this is ancient times. Although there are some industries and even the prototype of industrial production, in general it is still highly dependent on artificial intelligence.
On the other hand, because Hangzhou is a special place, it is directly populated by maritime merchants, and merchants who run factories naturally gather here. After all... Although the Tang Dynasty has built railways, which have great transshipment power, they still pay exclusively from the treasury.
Cost-effective construction means that the transportation step costs almost nothing.
But overall, it’s still a lot. Spending almost no money doesn’t mean spending nothing at all, and even if it doesn’t cost money at all, it still requires time and link costs.
In short, although Hangzhou is a big city that is involved in external expansion, it is also quite intense in internal expansion.
It is quite difficult to obtain this slave quota...
Huang Yuanwai took advantage of the fact that as a native, he still had a shop. For nearly a month, he repeatedly went in and out of the Hangzhou government office, inquiring about information, handling procedures, and asking for connections...
After all this hard work, we finally got a group of Xianbei slaves.
The total number of people was about fifty. Under the assignment of Huang Yuanwai, production was quickly put into operation in the newly built winery in the wilderness outside the city.
And finally there was a group of slaves who did not need to pay monthly fees and only had to take care of the food. Huang Yuanwai knew that his winery and shop had survived. He could only say that he was grateful to His Majesty... Besides that the winery could survive, Huang Yuanwai was in a good mood.
Another reason why I am very happy is that the Xianbei people I have on hand are not only strong adults, but they are also said to be members of the Xianbei clan... This is the best material for bragging on the wine table after dinner.
But of course, the yamen officer in charge told Huang Yuanwai that there seemed to be a Xianbei clan among the fifty people, but the yamen servant didn't know what clan it was specifically. He said that it was very likely that they were from the royal family.
It's impossible for Huang to believe this part. After all, the royal family... Do you think it's the old Wang family next door who runs the soy sauce shop, and the one who comes out is the Wang family? Doesn't that mean the Wang family in Taiyuan is divided into kings? It's nonsense.
Regarding this rumor, Huang Yuanwai went out to brag about it, but he was still quite confident in his heart and did not accept it.
You must know that since he can brag confidently, how can he deal with himself if the Yamen accepts his gift and does not exaggerate the identities of these people? Bragging... is just bragging.
In short, now that the winery has Xianbei slaves sent by the imperial court, it can finally be reopened and continued.
but……
Murong Fuyun knew very well in his heart what his identity was.
Why did the Tang Dynasty... also "benefit the people of Xianbei"? Isn't this nonsense? Didn't they just come to be slaves?
Fu Yun never thought in his life that one day he would be reduced to being a slave in the Tang Dynasty, not to the emperor of the Southern Dynasty, but to an unknown businessman in the Southern Dynasty!
It's simply a shame and a shame.
Fu Yun is thinking all the time now about when he can try to escape, the best...
It would be best to gather a group of brothers and directly rebel against the mother-in-law of the emperor of the Southern Dynasty.
I, the majestic Crown Prince of Tuyuhun, come to be your slave, this is simply...
But although Fu Yun was angry in his heart, he also knew that he could not act rashly. Apart from anything else, although he was very angry and the hatred between the country and the family was full, but the current situation...
The ordinary Xianbei people around me are very happy.
——Although the Tang Dynasty sent them as slaves, they promised to work for only ten years! Ten years later, they actually had fiefdoms.
This is a really big joke. When have you ever seen two countries at war and people from the defeated country still being granted land?
The emperor of the Tang Dynasty was simply a saint!
The key is not the bitter cold places in Tuyuhun, but the really warm places in the south!
Although in recent times, the Xianbei people who work as slaves here are also very aggrieved. After all, it is not pleasant to be a slave.
But because they were in Hangzhou, they also heard a lot of information, that is to say, the future fiefdoms given to everyone by His Majesty the Emperor were on lands outside the South China Sea, and although those places were far away, they were rare and fertile lands.
land.
There are countless varieties of locally produced food, not to mention the yield, and they are all wild. This is really scary. Can food like this be wild?
In the eyes of the Xianbei people, this is no different from a pie falling from the sky, and this pie is also carved and stuffed with meat.
...not to mention the places themselves.
...The land that never snows is the dream of many Xianbei people throughout their lives.
And this kind of thing is obviously impossible to satisfy Fu Yun.
Fu Yun is a Xianbei hero of his generation!
An existence comparable to Yeon Gaesumun's level, but before he could show off his skills, he was taken down by this hateful Southern Dynasty wild monster and sold to this place as a slave.
Just for a few pieces of warmer land, you want to buy me - is this fair?
You, Datang, say with your conscience, is this fair?
Since Fu Yun was sent to Hangzhou, he has spent every day not knowing what to eat and sleeping at night, gnashing his teeth and sneering.
What are you talking about? I have to find a chance to rebel against this corrupt court...!!!
