Chapter 97: The Master Behind Fan Lou
Two hundred, at first glance, it really doesn't sound cheap. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
But if you spend 200 yuan, you can guarantee the cost of three months, and the cost of reinvestment is almost zero, then these 200 yuan should be said to be cheap, and it is definitely a business that can be done.
Not to mention others, just those wealthy families in Beijing, the monthly cost of light wax is a lot of money, so they spend hundreds of yuan to replace this biogas lamp, which has no smoke and is several times brighter than a candle.
Definitely rush to change!
Tang Yi's proposal that Cao Tong want to partner in this business is not unavoidable.
First, the technology of the biogas digester is very complex, involving too many craftsmen, and it is not easy for him to control it when he first arrives.
Second, he has recently ..... The reputation is not very good.... It's better to go out less.
Thirdly, and most importantly... Tang Yi is short of money!
He brought 7,000 guan into the capital from Dengzhou, plus 10,000 guan raised by Fan Zhongyan. Almost all of them were paved on the construction of the academy. Due to the loan of fruit farmers in Dengzhou, the number of people in the capital who can support this year is not large. Therefore, Tang Yi doesn't look at the fact that he is very happy with Fan Lou now, in fact, he is just a showmanship... There is an urgent need to open up new businesses to subsidize it.
"How much does a full set of appliances cost?" Since it was decided to cooperate, Cao Tong naturally had to ask how much benefit there was in it.
"This set is down, and it will cost a hundred times."
"One hundred!"
Cao Fu's eyes were shining with gold, this set was no problem to sell to the big families in Beijing for 300 yuan, but he forgot that Tang Yi asked for 200 yuan just now, and he was still expensive....
"The main thing is that the cowhide tube and the copper piece on the lamp head cost a lot."
Cao Fu was stunned, in his opinion in this set, the glass cover is a valuable thing, and the leather tube is more valuable than the glass cover?
Tang Yi said the workmanship of the leather tube, Cao Fu couldn't help but say, in this way, it is really not cheap.
"However, these two things are mainly consumed in man-hours, and if there is a special craftsman to work together, the cost can be reduced again."
Just that one ejection tube and flap took Dong Quan seven days.
Here Tang Yi has to praise the craftsmen of the Great Song Dynasty for being really amazing, and the threads on them are all carved by Dong Quan with a carving knife little by little. Moreover, it is packed together with the mud head, and it is as precise as the components turned out by the lathe in later generations.
"Yes!" Cao Fu shouted: "Leather goods shops, gold and silver shops, we have them in Cao's Mansion!" ”
"So good! In this way, if the craftsman is cooked, the cost can be reduced a lot. ”
....
Cao Tong couldn't help but sigh when he looked at Tang Yi...
Years later, he went to Fan's Mansion to visit and chatted with Fan Zhongyan and Yin Zhu once. At that time, Yin Zhu once talked about Tang Dalang's set of ways of doing business, and Cao Tong didn't think anything at the time, but now it seems... True!
At that time, Yoon so said that Tang Yi once said that the most profitable business in the world is monopoly.
Cao Tong still thinks that this kid is a little ashamed, how can there be so many monopoly businesses for you in this world? The method of clarifying fruit wine and removing bitterness is a monopoly business, but sooner or later it will have to be learned. How will you still have a monopoly at that point?
However, looking at it now, the fruit wine has not been lost, but Tang Dalang has another monopoly business in his hands. Moreover, in the case that Cao Tong did not know how profitable the fruit wine was, he believed that this biogas lamp was more profitable than the fruit wine.
The business of biogas lamps, in Cao Tong's view, is definitely a big business, and Bianjing alone can make them a lot of money.
Just imagine, Bianjing is known as ruling millions of people, even if only one thousandth of the official eunuchs and nobles and wealthy families have installed biogas lamps, then how much wealth does this have?
One set of lights earns more than two hundred, how much is one hundred sets? How much is a thousand sets? That's a profit of hundreds of thousands!
....
and Tang Yi finalized some details, and Cao Tong looked at the river slope with satisfaction.
"It's not a loss to come today!"
On the way down the mountain, Cao Fu looked longing...
"We sent Fan Gong back to the mountain, but we befriended Tang Zihao because of this. Only this one business, five back to the mountain have earned back! ”
Cao Tong also felt that it was too worthwhile to send back to the mountain, originally just to gain a reputation, plus to sell a good child to the official family, but he didn't expect to earn back several.
Cao Tong exclaimed, "If it weren't for the official family to let us be a collaborator, we wouldn't have been able to meet this good business." ”
After saying that, his whole body stiffened....
The official family asked us to come...
Come and be a collaborator...
Broken!
The official asked us to come, it seems that there is something serious to do...
...
Cao Tong turned around and walked up the mountain, how could he forget about business.
"It's all your fault! What kind of business to talk about? When does business fail? I almost missed a major official event! Cao Tong began to complain about Cao Fu.
And Cao Fu was also confused...
You can't blame me for this, can you?
...
Uncle Cao Guo went and returned, Tang Yi still didn't understand a little, this 'immortal chief'... What are you going to do?
"I patronized this biogas lamp and forgot about it."
"Business?"
Tang Yi was right when he thought about it, patronizing the lights, but he forgot to ask, why did Cao Daxian run back to the mountain when he had nothing to do?
"Someone asked me to be a lobbyist to resolve the contradiction between Da Lang and Fan Lou." Cao Tong was also a bachelor and handed over the bottom directly.
Tang Yi frowned, "That person is very noble, right.?" ”
"It's too expensive! But it's inconvenient to show up, so Da Lang doesn't need to ask. ”
"Is it the main family behind Fan Lou?"
"It's not!"
Oh... Tang Yi nodded, "That's the official family today, what can't you say." ”
"You ....."
Cao Yan's eyes almost didn't protrude.
"How do you know?"
Tang Yi spread his hands and said: "What's so hard to guess about this, it's not the person behind Fan Lou, and he can invite Uncle Dongguo, and he still cares about my small wine shop, except for the official family, there is no one else." ”
Cao Tong was speechless.
"What does it mean to be a official? Can't bear to see Fan Lou being knocked down from the altar by me? ”
Burst!! Cao Tong sprayed directly!
They all say that this kid is crazy, but there is no such crazy method, right?
"The official family is afraid that your small wine shop will not be able to bear it, so Fan Lou will be beaten down, which will ruin the livelihood of the people in Dengzhou!"
"Oh...."Tang Yi nodded clearly.
"Then you go back and tell the official, thank him for his old man's concern, the kid is very grateful. In addition, I also told him the old man to rest assured that a Fan Lou couldn't stop me. ”
What is this, and the old man? Can the official family call it that? Moreover, the official family is not yet forty today, right?
However, at this time, Cao Tong didn't have the heart to entangle these useless works with him.
Alas... Sighing leisurely, he felt the need to talk to Tang Dalang about the rhyme of this Fan Lou...
"Does Da Lang know who is behind Fan Lou?"
"I didn't know before, but now I'm almost guessing."
"Oh?"
"Is Fan Lou's surname Pan or Liu?"
Cao Yan's eyes flashed, if Tang Yi guessed that the official family asked him to come, he needed a little wisdom.
But if you can guess the owner behind Fan Lou, it is not just as simple as wisdom, what you need is vision.
Tang Yi continued: "The big aristocratic families who can make Fan Lou have no scruples and suppress me in both the government and the people are none other than those people in Beijing - 'Cao, Liu, Pan, Wang, Chai, Shi, Yang'. ”
"And the official family doesn't let others come, and prefers Uncle Guo to be this collaborator, which shows that Uncle Guo also has weight in talking on Fanlou's side, and it should be one of the Jiangmen, so it can't be the Chai family."
Cao Yi nodded secretly, Tang Yi was right.
"Then how are you sure that you are one of the two families of Pan Liu?"
"The Yang family is loyal and martyred, and they died on the battlefield, and now except for one Yang Huaiyu in the army, there is no past scenery, and it is already the end. And the Wang family and the Shi family are now in charge of important positions in the army, and if they don't cause trouble, they have to be people with their tails between their legs, how can they dare to blatantly unite with the courtiers and participate in my book, and they are the official of collecting fruit and wine? ”
"Therefore, only the Cao family, the Pan family, and the Liu family are left."
Speaking of this, Tang Yi pursed his lips and smiled, "Fan Lou will not be Uncle Guo's industry, right?" ”
Cao Tong laughed, "It's a human spirit!" Yes, Fan Lou is the Pan family's industry! ”
"The Pan family?" Tang Yile is happy.
"That's right, let's also do a hand for Tianxingdao and help Master Yang's spirit in the sky to let out a bad breath!"
