Take the mall to Datang

Chapter 254 Kerosene Lamp

"Yuanshan, what are you doing today? It's so big. Maybe you have come up with something new." Cheng Zhijie said.

"Yuanshan, tell me if you have a profitable business again, don't forget me." Yuchi said respectfully.

"Don't mention it, I really have a good project to share with you today." Yuan Shan said.

"I just asked casually if it's really possible." Yuchi Jingde doubted.

"Of course, what I want to say is that the reserve price of [-] guan for match processing equipment will be in the form of a hidden bid. Anyone present who is interested in this project can participate, and the one with the highest hidden bid will win." Yuan Shan said.

Soon the news spread, and Yuchi Jingde and Cheng Zhijie were also discussing it.

"Changsun Wuji, why don't you look very interested, it's too abnormal." Cheng Zhijie said.

"If you calculate the profit of matches, you will know that as far as I know, it is normal for the current business of the Yuan family to earn around [-] pennies a day, but don't forget that it also involves the expenses of helpers, costs, and deductions. I am calculating how much is left, the current match production is done by women in Wuli Township, and it will take a lot of investment to organize so many people, so I am not optimistic about this project." Changsun Wu said frankly.

"It turns out that you've already made up your mind, and it's just three thousand coins. Since you don't want to bid, Changsun Wuji, then I, Old Cheng, will come." Cheng Zhijie said.

"Cheng Zhijie, it seems that you have misunderstood. I said that I am not optimistic about this project, but I didn't say that I would not vote for this project." Changsun Wuji said.

"Hey, you eldest grandson Wuji, are you kidding us?" Cheng Zhijie asked.

The military general chatted a few words here and it became a mess, and the civil servants didn't bother to do these things at all, but the rich businessmen were so attracted by the different match projects. They all made up their minds.

"Okay everyone, let's start bidding now. The low price is [-] guan, and everyone present today can participate in the bidding if the price is high." Yuan Shan explained the bidding rules, and then introduced the matches Regarding the production equipment of the factory, the price of matches may increase in the future as the market demands.

On the fourth floor, a group of women's banquets were extraordinarily elegant. The singers of the Yuan family performed some dances and songs. Then Dugu Rulan presided over the overall situation and introduced the characteristics of the Yuan family's clothing, high-heeled shoes and other collocations. More importantly, At this banquet, Dugu Ruolan also made people experience the effects of cosmetics. After careful makeup, the ladies instantly became beautiful, and they couldn't put it down instantly.

At the banquet, I ordered a batch of goods with Dugu Ruolan, and the price was very expensive. A small box of foundation cost hundreds of pennies. Some people were shocked when they heard the price.

The various products displayed on the fourth floor are what make these women want to stop. Those who have not worn a dress can also change into a brand new dress and high-heeled shoes in the fitting room with the help of the waitress on the spot, and then show their background in front of the huge mirror. posture.

At the same time, Lan Lan also showed the face-to-face dance to the girls. What is unexpected is that the reception ability of these girls is completely beyond imagination, and many of them started to learn on the spot.

The slightly older women tasted the wine with crystal glasses, completely immersed in the wine.

There are also a variety of delicacies on the seats, which are basically the first time they have seen them, especially the fried potato chips, which are delicious and delicious. There are also some young women in these families who really like to eat them Greasy stuff, potato chips, fried chicken tenders, stuff like that.

The fourth floor was even more lively than imagined. The agreed-upon product promotion reception became a paradise for women. They let themselves go at such a banquet, and everyone who chatted was very happy.

But the third floor was full of excitement. The match production project was sold to the Xue family at a price of [-] guan after the hidden bid was lifted. After signing the equipment sales contract, it is expected that the Xue family will be able to take over the equipment in three days.

In fact, Yuanshan had already planned the sale of the match production project. On the one hand, he had to worry about the women in Wulizhuang. The logistical pressure at home is enormous.

When I set up the building materials chamber of commerce, it was like changing hands of the matches. At that time, it was to estimate the work problems of the women. Now, the farmers in different Wulizhuang are now making a living. Helping with roads and houses is more profitable than making matches. , In addition, some wholesalers promoted by Hepingfang stores are selling cheaply in various states. It seems to make money, but this also increases the demand for cost raw materials.

As for the material of the medicine head, the Xue family needs to figure out their own way. Of course, he has already told them about the excavation of the material, and also handed them over how to refine the material, so that Yuan Shan doesn't have to worry about the match. , It seems that the sale is cheap, but it is not the case. In the hands of Yuanshan, the match has the materials in the system mall to help him make money, but in the hands of other people, the match may also make money, but the price will definitely not be high. As it is now.

It can even become a luxury item among ignition products.

Some labor force can be freed up to carry out other intensive industries. It is impossible to let his Yuan family supply all the matches in Chang'an City. This is also extremely detrimental to the development of Chang'an. There will be new space for the development of Datang in the hands of wealthy businessmen, instead of letting Yuanshan be a system porter.

One is the processing specifications for matchsticks. The equipment can make matchsticks and change the blade technology to produce water cake sticks. At that time, Yuanshan can directly purchase materials if he wants to make some freezing points. Save time, if he is busy with everything, it may form a small batch of things that will never form a scale.

As for the disclosure of some technical formulas, Yuan Shan didn't care about these at all. In the future, he could go to Xue's family to study the gunpowder rope orders of the Armament Superintendent, and he would never bother him again.

The match project was finished, but Yuanshan's preparations were not yet finished. The next thing Yuanshan brought out was a kerosene lamp.

Yuan Shan directly took the lit kerosene lamp to the venue, and placed it beside everyone for people to watch. The light was many times stronger than candles. The kerosene can be used for six hours at a time. In the end, he said that the final price of [-] guan for each lamp is the same price as that sold to Changsun Wuji last time, and kerosene costs [-] guan for a liter.

In fact, many businessmen have long valued the lighting equipment in the mall, but they have been nowhere to be found. Now that Yuan Shan can sell these lights, it is a surprise for them. Just say that the transparent glass lampshade on the kerosene lamp Worth a lot of money.

Chapter 255

"Isn't this the kerosene lamp used in His Majesty's study?" an official said.

When the people around heard that the emperor was using this, it must be a good thing, and some small wealthy businessmen began to be moved.

"I want a hundred." Zheng Qi said.

Everyone immediately sighed for the Zheng family's big money, which was [-] guan.

"Haha, nephew, you're pretty quick. I want five hundred lamps." Xue Kai said.

Some businessmen around were very surprised again, this time it was 30 lamps but it cost a total of [-] guan. They didn't know if the Xue family was crazy, even Zheng Qi who was on the side was a little curious.

"Uncle Xue, why are you buying so many kerosene lamps? It's not a small sum." Zheng Qi asked curiously.

"Nephew, I know that most of the kerosene lamps you bought are for your own use, but mine is different. What do you think of this Hepingfang shopping mall?" Xue Kai said.

"Uncle Xue, maybe you want to..." Zheng Qi said.

Xue Kai interrupted Zheng Qi and said, "That's right, my Xue family intends to open such a mall, and these kerosene lamps are just in use."

"I see." Zheng Qi said, but he didn't intend to buy more.

After all, the Zheng family is not owned by Zheng Qi alone. Besides, the construction of the cement road from Chang'an to Luoyang has already cost a lot of money. Now all the energy of the Zheng family is spent on cotton, and they really don't want to expand new business for a while.

"Two hundred kerosene lamps." Chen Changshun said.

Chen Changshun is quite well-known in Pingkangfang. Some of the wealthy businessmen who came here today are regular customers of Pingkangfang. Few people don’t know Chen Changshun. The master behind it is even more mysterious.

Someone shouted out the quantity one after another, and Yuanshan was very proud of it. These are all money.

This will be [-] in batches. Yuan Shan almost fainted from laughter when he calculated the value, and now his eyes are full of the stench of copper.

Yuan Shan added fire to them at the critical moment, saying: "A thousand kerosene lamps are left, and there are less than two hundred lamps left. Buy them quickly."

Of course, Changsun Wuji was not left behind, and the group of princes, Cheng Zhijie and other generals each asked for a few, and the civil servants kept a low profile and didn't buy any.

Six hundred guan for a lamp is really outrageously expensive, and the small official salary of civil servants is really not enough, but I don't know if they have "grey income".

After the kerosene lamps are sold, the kerosene is then sold, all of which are packed in tin barrels, costing three pennies per liter, and [-] liters of tin barrels are not retail.

There is a lot of kerosene accumulated in the refinery. This time, 60 barrels of kerosene were directly sold, and the kerosene lamps earned [-] guan, and the kerosene sold [-] guan.

The cement used for road construction, glass, clothing, and candle sales are all far from profitable.

This is limited to the current quantity. If you sell tens of thousands of them directly, the price will not be so high. Besides, what is sold now is a freshness, and it will not be so valuable when the strength passes the kerosene lamp.

When kerosene lamps can be produced, they can start to be popularized, and then they will still make money.

Yuan Shan held the wine glass and said: "The kerosene lamps have been sold out, let's hold up the wine glasses, and hope that today's gathering can bring happiness to everyone."

The sale of goods on the third floor is over, and now it is officially entering the free social session. As a result, Yuan Shan was the first person to be surrounded by people.

"Yuan Shan, what have you been doing recently? Look at this room full of delicious food. You can open a restaurant. How about we cooperate." Li Chengqian said.
