Prosperous Tang Soul

Chapter 250 The Business of 2 Money

Chapter 250
"That's right, it's exactly two pennies!" Zhang Yi smiled, affirming the answer just now, and said: "As the Earl of Tang Dynasty, I should serve the imperial court, but this ice-making method I still want to pass it on, so I can only use this method to assist the chief executive!"

What Zhang Yi said was a righteous speech, but the eleventh month behind the tree was deeply disdainful!
As for Zhang Yi, Yue Shiyue knew a lot about it. He would not believe it if he wanted to work for nothing from Zhang Yi, a guy whose eyes were all about money!
However, after thinking about it for a long time on the eleventh day of the month, I couldn't think of the key to the problem.

A pot of chilled grape wine can be worth ten pennies, that’s right, even if it’s lower, it’s about eight pennies, but it’s not comparable to ice cubes worth two cents!

Besides, the consistent money is equal to one thousand Wen, which can basically buy 500 yuan of ice cubes
Of course, the most important thing is that this ice-making method has long been spread everywhere in the Earl's Mansion, not to mention that everyone knows it, at least many maids in the inner courtyard can do it, but this guy Zhang Yi actually hides it !
And just now, he did it once in front of Tang Peng. I can't figure out what kind of medicine is sold in Zhang Yi's gourd!

Yue [-] was considering Zhang Yi's ideas, and Li Jing, Niu Jinda and Tang Peng were also calculating the gains and losses in it.

Especially Li Jing, after careful calculation, he made the decision on the spot, two pennies and one ice cube. This is a good thing that can't be found even with a lantern!
"In that case, the old man will give you a great achievement!"

"Then thank you for your kindness!" Zhang Yi smiled and said modestly: "But you also know that the official is actually a lazy person. lift.

According to the official, this matter of crediting can be avoided!As a great nobleman of the Tang Dynasty, he was already in the same spirit as the imperial court, so it is only right to contribute some strength! "

Li Jing and Niu Jinda respected Li Jing and Niu Jinda in awe, and even Tang Peng blushed a little, full of deep remorse for his dandy life in front of him.

Throwing the ice cubes into the copper basin, Zhang Yi sighed, and then murmured: "Chairman, General Niu, three elements are needed to make ice, the first is the secret method, the second is saltpeter, and the third is to hold these things." container and clean water. It can be said that without any of these three conditions, the ice cannot be made.”

"En! That's true!" Li Jing nodded, and pondered: "There is no shortage of clear water and ice containers, and you have a way. You mean that there is not enough saltpeter?"

"Of course not!" Zhang Yi shook his head and explained: "When the officials came, they asked the sergeants from Zhangjiazhuang to carry a large amount of saltpeter. As long as they are used properly and supplemented along the way, there is no problem!
The reason why I say this is that the next official wants to explain to the chief executive why two pennies are charged. "

"It's nothing more than cost ears!" Li Jing waved his sleeves towards Zhang Yi. Now that the matter of ice cubes has been solved, he is in a very good mood. He smiled and said to Zhang Yi: "Although the old man has never been in business, I still know some things about doing business. , no matter this saltpeter or other materials, they all need cost, a piece of ice costs two cents, I believe those sergeants should be able to afford it!"

Tang Peng felt bitter for a while, and when he looked at Zhang Yi, he wanted to slap his smiling face that was about to cramp.

When he thought of a big deal being ruined by Zhang Yi in this way, and he was actually an accomplice, thinking that the piles of copper coins were like a boiled duck flapping its wings and flying, there was a feeling in his heart. The urge to commit suicide.

"Brother Tang, what's the matter? You have a frowning face. Could it be that your heart still hurts after drinking your grape wine just now?" Zhang Yi asked Tang Peng with a smile.

"Lizi, do you know how much copper coins we lost just now?" Tang Peng was speechless for a while, thinking that Zhang Yi had gone crazy, and explained immediately: "The two coins and one piece of ice went to grandma's house! "

After finishing speaking, he turned his head away, sat on the straw mat and sulked.

"Hehe! Tang Sijie, do you think my uncle will lose money?" Wang Laowu was immediately happy.

If other people did this, Wang Laowu would definitely think the same as Tang Peng, but Zhang Yi did it, so I don't believe it.

You know, Zhang Yi sold a broken orange for a sky-high price, and sold a duck in the industry!Can Zhang Yi do a loss-making business?Then someone has to believe it!
"That's natural!" Tang Peng glared at Zhang Yi angrily, pointed to the copper basin and said, "It takes about three catties of saltpeter to produce such a little ice, and it can be divided into ice cubes as big as your uncle said. It's only ten yuan, and according to the price he gave, it's only twenty yuan, so it's no wonder that you don't lose money!"

"A catty of saltpeter is half a penny, three catties is a penny, and clean water costs nothing. Counting the cost of other things, it is only about three pennies. This is nearly ten times the profit! Are you still not satisfied?"

Zhang Yi was a little surprised. It was obviously a very profitable business, but it became a loss-making business in front of Tang Peng and the others.If the cost is strictly controlled, he estimates that the cost should be less than a penny.

You know, saltpeter can be reused, it just takes more effort, so the profit can even reach twenty times, this is simply a business against the sky!
"However, a pot of grape wine in Chang'an needs ten pennies." Tang Peng still couldn't forget the ten pennies in his mouth.

In his opinion, one pot is ten guan, so how about two pots, three pots, or even more?There is no way to calculate this account, I just feel that I missed tens of thousands of pens in an instant, it is really strange that he is in a good mood.

"Brother Tang, how many pots do we think we can sell in Chang'an?" Zhang Yi asked back.

"This...should be quite a lot!" Tang Peng said with some uncertainty, "Even if you only sell one pot a day, it's considered that you made 5000 yuan of ice cubes here!"

"You really think so?"

"That's natural! So, Lizi, you've lost a lot this time! It's a good business, but I just gave it away for nothing, and I'm anxious for you!"

"According to the quality of your grapes, a pot costs about 10 renminbi. If you sell a pot, the profit is actually only about nine guarantons after the cost!" Poured a glass of cold grape wine, then took a sip, and said strangely: "But have you ever thought that our army has 1 people, and among the [-] people, not to mention everyone buys it. Even if there are only [-] people per day, how much profit is there?

And I'm sure, as the weather gets hotter, more and more people will buy here, not less!Unless it's autumn, our business can go on forever! "

 PS: The double monthly pass has started, brothers please help!
