Iron Dynasty

White sugar, what is this?

Some businessmen who were about to leave stopped abruptly and returned to the booth again. After being shocked by the pendulum clock, the fragile nerves of the businessmen tightened again.

They were overjoyed, it was a day for them to celebrate, because the more products Qingzhou launched, the more money they could make.

Li Kaiyuan was full of smiles. He enjoyed the feeling of being looked up by everyone. Compared with the pendulum clock, the white sugar was not too shocking to him. He said, This white sugar is very sweet, according to His Highness' words. In other words, this white sugar, like salt, has become an ingredient that the people of Dayu will buy, and the prospects are very good.”

It's the same as table salt. The merchant suddenly looked at me and I looked at you. This salt has always been an official business, which shows the huge profits of this salt.

A businessman said in disbelief: Vice President Li, you are exaggerating, this thing is very similar to table salt, but can it really be compared with table salt?

Li Kaiyuan sneered, he explained more, and said to the questioning businessman: If you don't believe me, you can try this white sugar, although it is not as necessary as salt every day, but it is also something that the people need in large quantities. You must have eaten this maltose. That's a hundred times stronger than maltose.

There are not many people who are in business who are not smart, and they will not let their money go to waste in vain, so the businessman who asked the question stepped forward and squeezed some white sugar into his mouth.

As the sweet taste melted in his mouth, the businessman's expression became more and more exciting.

How? Li Kaiyuan said lightly.

Absolutely, absolutely amazing! The merchant gave a thumbs up, and he said, Qingzhou's products are perfect, and every one of them is ingenious.

When the other businessmen saw this, they swarmed over to taste the white sugar, and the voices of amazement immediately rose and fell in the chamber of commerce.

Vice President Li, how do you sell this white sugar? the businessman asked anxiously.

The more eager the merchants were, the more calm Li Kaiyuan became. He said unhurriedly: This white sugar is not for sale. Your Highness is kind. This white sugar can be purchased with technology like soap and produced separately.

As soon as Li Kaiyuan said this, the businessmen immediately fried the pot.

After the Chamber of Commerce opened up the production of soap, soap workshops in Qingzhou have sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain. In just one year, there are more than 100 soap workshops outside Qingzhou.

After the establishment of these soap workshops, the Chamber of Commerce even sold their own soap workshops and only provided caustic soda to the soap parties. Now, there is obviously an opportunity for them to become rich.

The businessmen in Qingzhou who do not know that these soap shop owners are now rich and fat.

Vice President Li, I'll buy it! a businessman shouted immediately, for fear that he would be driven ahead.

Another businessman pulled him behind him and said, Brother Zhao, don't join in the fun, who doesn't know that you only have five hundred taels of silver in your body, can you afford this white sugar technique? This soap technique Just 10,000 taels, I think there will be more of this white sugar.

Brother Li is wrong. Now Qingzhou Bank can borrow money. If it's a big deal, I will also borrow money. It's not a problem to make money together. Hehe, I would be really stupid if I missed this opportunity to make a fortune.

When the two of you were talking to me, the other businessmen suddenly reacted and squeezed towards Li Kaiyuan one by one. Standing on the booth, Li Kaiyuan was forcibly pushed three or four meters away by the crowd.

Facing the temptation to make a fortune, these businessmen went completely crazy. They all had red eyes and hoarse voices.

Vice President Li, this opportunity must be given to me. I am willing to give you 20% of the profit.

I'll give you thirty percent.

Vice President Li, my daughter is twenty-eight years old. If Vice President Li is willing, I can accept it.

...

After waves of sound came, Li Kaiyuan almost felt dizzy, he immediately shouted: Guard, guard!

His voice went all the way, and the soldiers guarding the door immediately stepped forward to block the crazy merchants. In front of the guards' icy weapons, the merchants returned to the platform and looked at Li Kaiyuan one by one, waiting for his decision.

Li Kaiyuan looked devastated. He did not expect that the production technology of white sugar would cause such a big sensation. If the technology of the pendulum clock was announced, these merchants would not eat him directly.

After sorting out the messy clothes that were pulled by the businessman, Li Kaiyuan said angrily: What do you look like? If your Highness sees that you are so unruly, you should not think about this technology.

Vice President Li, we are also impatient. Since His Royal Highness said that this white sugar technology is going to be sold, we must give it a chance to buy it, said a businessman.

Li Kaiyuan didn't give a shit at this time, he said to a group of merchants: His Royal Highness said, like soap, this time the white sugar technology is only sold to members of the Chamber of Commerce, don't think about it if you haven't joined the Chamber of Commerce, in addition, the Chamber of Commerce There are no restrictions on purchases within the country, as long as the money is in place, you can get the technology, but Your Highness also asked me to remind you not to be too blind, otherwise the white sugar production is too unsellable, and our chamber of commerce will not be responsible.

The businessman nodded when he heard the words, His Royal Highness really cares about us, and he specially reminded us of this.

It's really right to come to Qingzhou this time. His Royal Highness King Qi really attaches great importance to businessmen. A businessman who had just arrived from other places said that he was considering settling in Qingzhou.

After saying this requirement, Li Kaiyuan said: If you want to buy at the Chamber of Commerce, go to register, pay the money, and the Chamber of Commerce will organize you to study in the workshop.

As soon as Li Kaiyuan's voice fell, the businessman ran to the registration office immediately, adhering to the principle of first come, first served, all the businessmen wanted to seize this opportunity.

The merchants here are all in a hurry, and at the same time, the merchant servants and servants who are resident in the chamber of commerce to listen for news are already on their way back to inform their masters.

As the news spread in Qingzhou City, more and more merchants came to the Chamber of Commerce impatiently, so the people of Qingzhou saw a surprising scene. The shopkeeper who was selling cloth in the shop seemed to be crazy. If not, run outside.

The pig butcher dropped the pig-killing knife and ran away. For a while, the merchants in Qingzhou City were in chaos.

The change in Qingzhou City naturally attracted the attention of the government office. Pang Yukun laughed helplessly when he learned that the Chamber of Commerce had launched two more products.

Looking in the direction of Prince Qi's mansion, Pang Yukun said with emotion: His Royal Highness is really far-sighted. It seems not impossible that the commercial tax exceeds the agricultural tax.
