Chapter 40: White Sugar Forever, One Catty Passed Down Through Generations
In the west of Luoyang City, with Hong's help, Qin Feng easily found a very good storefront on the best street. The flow of people is large, the storefront is large, and the rent is low for some reason.
He hired a dozen or so apprentices, all of whom were capable people found by Lu Zhan.
Everything is ready, just waiting for Zhou Shan to come back and open for business with great luck.
Time keeps passing, and it's already mid-June.
Qin Feng insisted on practicing every day, Wuqin Xi, horseback archery, and often practiced horse warfare with Gao Shun.
Gao Shun saw his wife getting better day by day and was grateful to Qin Feng for his great kindness in teaching him. Gao Shun's martial arts value was at least 80, and under Qin Feng's guidance, the long gun in his hand also gained some martial arts value. Not to mention 70 or 60, it was definitely possible.
Hush.
In the backyard of the Qin residence, an arrow accurately hit the bullseye thirty meters away. Qin Feng wiped his sweat, "Haha... I finally hit the bullseye! Brother Boda, how was my last shot?"
"Not bad, not bad! Qin Feng's brother has a high level of awareness. Given time, he will definitely become a powerful general." Gao Shun said with a hearty laugh.
"Haha, I don't dare to be called a fierce general, as long as I can go on the battlefield and kill enemies, that's enough." Qin Feng also had self-awareness, so he just practiced for a month, compared to those who have been practicing for over a decade, there is still a big gap.
"Rush into battle and slay the enemy......" Gao Shun's face showed a nostalgic expression, "Brother, the military of this great Han dynasty is not what it used to be."
Wouldn't it be better to wait for the Yellow Turban Rebellion, which would be the perfect opportunity for you to make a name for yourself. Qin Feng drew his bow and shot an arrow, hitting the bullseye once again with a loud thud.
"Master, master! Zhou Guan Shi has returned!" At this time, a servant rushed in to report.
Qin Feng has the financial support of the Hong Bang and the Beggar Gang, and at this moment, his family has also recruited many servants and maids, and it is already a big household.
"Zhou Shan is back!" He was overjoyed and hastily threw down his bow and arrow to go to the front yard to check. Then he saw Zhou Shan, excitedly kowtowing to his mother, Old Lady Zhou, asking for her blessing.
"My lord!" Zhou Shan hastily went over to pay his respects and said excitedly: "Zhou Shan is fortunate not to have disgraced your orders..."
"Ha, good, good. You've had a hard time on this trip, is your body well? Are the brothers well? And what about my younger brother Zhao Yun?"
Zhou Shan saw Qin Feng, not asking about money or goods, but only concerned about the safety of himself and others. He felt a warmth in his heart and secretly thought: I must work hard to repay Master's kindness. He hastily said: "Along the way, we encountered several mountain bandits, but with Zhao Yun brothers, everyone is fine. Zhao Yun brother's silver spear is extraordinary, truly one of the rare warriors in the world."
"Haha, that's natural. And don't forget whose brother he is." Qin Feng was overjoyed in his heart, with such a powerful and unmatched general to assist him, what great thing couldn't be accomplished? He asked: "Where is my brother Zi Long?"
"Lord, Zhao Yun asked me to pass on a message to you. He said that his experience is still shallow and far inferior to yours. After entering the Luoyang territory, he left and traveled the world." Zhou Shandao said.
Qin Feng was taken aback, his face turned pale, and he cursed, "A peerless martial general who had been cooked to perfection just flew away like that!"
His face twitched a few times, and he had a strong urge to hit someone. Fortunately, in the drama academy of the previous life, he had practiced controlling his emotions under extreme anger. He forced a smile: "My brother Zi Long is as ambitious as the sky, and he will definitely be a famous general in the future. Never mind that, did you bring back sugar?"
Zhou Shan felt embarrassed, he could see that the master was very concerned about Zhao Yun's brothers. Fortunately, the white sugar matter had been settled. He said: "Master, we are currently collecting and processing in Jiaozhou. The smoothness is far beyond expectations. This time, we brought back 10,000 catties of white sugar, all waiting for the master to inspect outside."
"Oh, hurry and take me there." Qin Feng finally had a good mood, with this white sugar, he would be able to occupy a place in the Luoyang business community, and his wealth would roll in...
"Heh heh, Brother Boda, quickly go and brew a bowl of sugar water for Sister-in-law to taste. Master Hua Tuo, you've been traveling the world for over ten years, have you ever seen such pure white sugar?" Qin Feng said with satisfaction.
The snow-white sugar made Gao Shun, Hua Tuo and others stare in amazement. They had never thought that sugar could be so beautiful. It was truly white as snow and sweet as honey.
"Good sugar, good sugar......" Hua Tuo ate a little and clicked his tongue in surprise.
"Qin Feng brothers, such high-quality white sugar, how much do you plan to sell it for per kilogram?" Gao Shun asked, knowing that Qin Feng was going to use these sugars to do business.
"Hehe, Brother Boda, how much should it be per kilogram?"
"How... can it be three to five yuan?" Gao Shun thought that ordinary sugar was one yuan, and this white sugar being three to five yuan was already unbelievable.
"Five guan? Five guan is the cost, at least ten guan to start. Don't be afraid of being expensive, you have to study the buyer's shopping psychology. Who will buy these sugars? They are all wealthy and aristocratic families, they are willing to spend five guan to buy, and they don't care about spending more five guan. What is a wealthy and aristocratic family? A wealthy and aristocratic family is someone who absolutely buys the best things, something that ordinary people can't afford. The more luxurious the better, the more expensive the better, this is how they show off their status and power." Qin Feng said with a smile.
Hua Tuo and Gao Shun were stunned upon hearing this. Qin Feng's words seemed quite reasonable.
Zhou Shan was deeply impressed and admired, it seems our master is well-versed in the ways of doing business.
Qin Feng saw the famous people of all ages being fooled by himself, and he couldn't help but feel proud. He smiled and said: "Zhou Shan, transport all these sugars to our store, we will have a grand opening tomorrow. You should divide them into three types: coarse white sugar, fine white sugar, and ultimate white sugar. Sell them at the price of 10 guan, 20 guan, and 30 guan per catty."
"Yes, sir!" If all the sugar is sold out, the accumulated wealth will be comparable to that of a wealthy family in Luoyang. This is the first batch of goods! Zhou Shan was full of energy and began to plan for tomorrow's opening after bidding farewell to his mother.
"Brother Boda, once the goods are sold, we'll have money right away. I'll buy that thousand-year-old ginseng from a few days ago to help Sister-in-law recover. With the thousand-year-old ginseng, I'm sure Sister-in-law will be back to normal in no time." Qin Feng said with a smile.
Gao Shun did not expect that Qin Feng's first thing to do after making money was to treat his own wife's illness, and he was extremely grateful. He clasped his fists together in respect and said: "Brother Qin Feng..."
"Ah, no need to stand on ceremony, we're brothers who share a common heart. This is just a small matter, not worth mentioning. I still have to prepare for tomorrow's affairs, so I won't be able to keep you company any longer. Yue'er, take good care of everything at home and don't neglect our esteemed guests." Qin Feng instructed.
"Yes, sir." Moon replied hastily. There was no housekeeper in the Qin Feng Mansion, and all the servants listened to Moon's orders.
Qin Feng went out to find Da Niu and Lu Zhan, telling them to instruct their subordinates to spread the news of white sugar in Luoyang City from that day on.
This white sugar is as rare as a celestial wonder and unmatched on earth.
It is a secret recipe from an ancient country of tens of thousands of miles away, which can prolong life and prevent all diseases.
If a person can't eat well, then this life is considered to be in vain. When giving gifts, not giving some is simply out of touch with the times. When entertaining guests at home without white sugar, it's simply damaging to the family's noble image.
How to promote this matter, it's not difficult for Qin Feng who crawled out of the advertisement heap from later generations. So for a time, Luoyang began to spread rumors about white sugar and started spreading the advertising language he wrote.
In short, however exaggerated it is, whatever is good will be said. This year's festival doesn't accept gifts, only white sugar is accepted as a gift. What Qinshi White Sugar, noble and luxurious exclusive enjoyment... Warmth and affection, the big family of white sugar.
White sugar forever far away, one catty always passed down.
