Chapter 175 Qin Wenzheng is puzzled
Gu Yundong pointed to white sugar, "The recipe for white sugar can be dedicated to the imperial court."
Qin Wenzheng's eyes lit up, but he heard her continue, "But there are conditions."
"What conditions."
"The court allows me to make deals without permission." Damn, she obviously did it, and her business needs the permission of the court, which is a pain in the ass.
But Gu Yundong understood that it was impossible for her to keep the technology of refining sugar in her hands.
This thing is not like recipe embroidery, this person does not have it, that person has it. You can hide it as an inheritance, and your descendants will inherit the ancestral craftsmanship in the future.
White sugar is related to the livelihood of the people. In the future, it will enter thousands of households. Just like salt, she is a little farm girl, dare to play monopoly? Killed in minutes.
But, she can let the imperial court monopolize it.
Seeing Qin Wenzheng's silence, Gu Yundong continued, "Master Qin, let's not lie, it is the only condition for me to offer the formula. Of course, the court can refuse to agree, Zuo is just coercion and enticing me, but I want to cause The bad consequences are all unwilling to see.”
"Although I want to buy and sell privately, you can rest assured that my quantity will not be very large, and what I most want to do is not the sugar business."
Speaking of this, she lowered her voice slightly, "But the imperial court can refine it in large quantities, Master Qin, is the treasury empty now? Don't look at me like that and say something disrespectful, what kind of person the first emperor was, we all I know, what's more, when the current emperor ascended the throne, he immediately allocated a large amount of disaster relief money to Yongning Mansion, and then just think about how much money there is in the treasury."
Qin Wenzheng's face became solemn.
Gu Yundong's voice became even lower, "But this white sugar can help the emperor make a lot of money. White sugar looks clean, but the amount is small. I heard that most of Jingcheng Xungui likes to compare, so I know there is such a thing. , you must not find any way to buy it? But white sugar is in the hands of the imperial court. Isn't it just as much as the emperor says? Besides, white sugar can also be exported to our neighboring countries, which not only shows our country's advanced technology, but also earns money. Is it their money?"
Qin Wenzheng followed her train of thought, and the more she thought about it, the more feasible it became.
Although white sugar will be widely used in ordinary people's homes in the future, the emperor can still make a good profit to fill the treasury during the past few years, right?
Gu Yundong continued, "As for me, even if I buy and sell privately, I will only set the price at the same price as the imperial court. I don't have much quantity, so most people still have to ask the emperor to buy it, right? As long as Master Qin is my backer, don't let it go. If others trouble me, I will tell you the recipe."
Qin Wenzheng was silent, and after thinking for a long time, he finally nodded cautiously, "Okay, then can I go to Yongfu Village to see how you refined this white sugar?"
"Master Qin should ask the boss first and confirm it."
Qin Wenzheng gave her a deep look, "The girl doesn't look like a peasant girl at all."
"I also think I'm smart."
The quiet Ge Shi couldn't help laughing out loud, Qin Wenzheng's tensed face couldn't help twitching, he shook his head and laughed, "Then Miss Gu, wait a moment, I'll go write a letter."
said, he took the sugar and left.
Mr. Ge had been watching it just now, and when he heard that Qin Wenzheng was about to leave, he wondered if he could have a mouthful of such white and sweet sugar, but he didn't expect that his husband, who was puzzled by the style, would take it straight away.
