Chapter 505 Money!
4,200 tons of brown sugar may be a big problem for others, but for Horn, it is not a problem.
Horn's slime juice and sugar pouring method is extremely simple to operate.
After dissolving the brown sugar with lime water, pour in the slime gel powder, and after letting it stand, keep scraping the icing sugar to get the white sugar.
He even calculated that a sugar workshop with 20 people can purify nearly 800 pounds, or 400 kilograms, of sugar every day.
In one month, 10 tons of white sugar can be purified. If these 10 tons of white sugar are sold at the wholesale price, the income will be 1,000 gold pounds.
Based on the output of purifying 10 pounds of brown sugar into 6 pounds of white sugar, such a workshop can consume 16.5 tons of brown sugar in a month.
Then 4,200 tons of brown sugar is just a matter of 25 workshops, and it can even provide Horn with more than 500 jobs.
A sugar workshop, deducting labor costs, materials and losses, and transportation costs, can earn about 500 gold pounds per year.
Twenty-five workshops are equivalent to an increase in income of 12,500 gold pounds for Horn.
After Horn explained it, the two of them understood Horn's business model, which was to exchange grain for sugar, sugar for money, and then each of the three families would get what they needed.
Thanks to the secret recipe developed by Horn, good white sugar can be produced without much difficulty, and the speed and output are guaranteed.
"It's just Mr. Horn, although your idea is good, there is still a big problem." Ludvik pointed to the plate of sugar, "The farmers and lords of Kasha County are accustomed to Sold to the Leia merchants and the church.
Why did they sell the grain to you when they were already resisting you?"
Horn smiled slightly and took out a stack from his arms. The document was handed to Ludvik:
"We will distribute sugar to you based on the annual yellow sugar production. As long as the grain is transported to a fixed location, you can obtain the corresponding amount of white sugar based on the sugar.
How to sell this sugar is their own It’s a matter of internal digestion or smuggling, we don’t care, anyway, our wholesale price is 12 dinars.”
This is what makes the rich peasant lords in Kasha County more inclined to sell grain to the Salvation Army.
Because sugar of this quality can change hands for 18 dinars, and people will buy it, so they will naturally flock to it.
This will inevitably give birth to a group of specialized sugar and grain merchants, because Kasha County is full of retail traders and does not have the ability to organize convoys to transport grain.
These sugar merchants can work with the Salvation Army’s Saint Lady Bank to form a Thousand Valley Sugar Trading Company.
Horn can provide them with trade channels to the Kingdom of France, which is what Monteiac promised to the Salvation Army.
Naturally, these locals were tied to the Salvation Army's chariot.
"By doing this, will they be willing to join the Salvation Army?" Rubbing his eyes, Ludwick looked up from the paper, obviously dazzled by the plan.
"Let me ask you, suppose there are two gold pounds here, which one is dirty? Which one is noble?" Horn leaned back and leaned on the soft cushion.
At that time, no matter how Jean Blow advocates, Kasha County will have to stand on Horn's side.
Because Horn led them to make money, and it was money that was unimaginable before.
It turns out that the church was their food and clothing parent, and then Horn became their food and clothing parent.
The Holy Kingdom governs the world with filial piety. From now on, they will all be Huo's filial sons. Do they still dare to put other people's tablets in their own homes to worship?
“I know that many of your lords and farmers are unwilling to travel far. It doesn’t matter. The Megdi Chamber of Commerce will set up strongholds throughout Kasha.
Lords and farmers can sell the grain to the Megdi Chamber of Commerce nearby. Of course, due to losses, they will definitely make a lot less than if they transport it themselves. ”
This is the original grain merchant business branch of the Megdi Chamber of Commerce, but it has changed from transporting grain outwards to transporting grain inward.
In this Qianhe River Valley Sugar Trading Company, You still have to have your own people who are reliable. As for the French people's attitude towards large-scale sugar transactions, Catherine said that the French royal family would definitely be willing to do so.
Although the French kingdom has withdrawn. The finances of most areas have not abolished the nobility and their privileges. Business and goods in many places are monopolized by local nobles
Like sugar, it is monopolized by the nobles of Lilac Corridor. The French royal family will definitely not refuse this windfall.
Maybe they will help Horn sell sugar, or even use administrative power to force local nobles to bow their heads.
After reviewing the entire process for the two of them, they finally figured out Horn's plan.
Lulus frowned: "You two have made a lot of money, do I only have food?"
"More than that." Horn shook his hand. , "You can still sell the food inside Black Snake Bay. Besides, I have to import something from you."
"What?"
"Slime."
The only limitation of Horn's slime drizzle method is the amount of slime.
The slime in Daze Township will definitely not be able to satisfy the booming sugar industry.
Everyone wants to do a business that is profitable and profitable. As long as the situation in Qianhe River Valley stabilizes, or even if it does not stabilize, there will be a lot of wealthy businessmen coming to Horn with money.
The 25 sugar-making workshops are just the beginning. When the price of sugar is lowered until someone starts a normal workshop and loses money, then the number of sugar-making workshops will gradually stabilize.
Not to mention the consumption of slime juice by the mortar.
There may be hundreds of workshops in the future, or even more, and killing all the slimes in Osawa Township will make it impossible to make it.
Black Snake Bay is overrun with slimes. Horn plans to open a slime farm and slime workshop in Black Snake Bay in the future to specialize in producing corresponding gel and slime juice.
Horn was able to do this not because he was a genius, but because of the wisdom of his predecessors.
The recipe for slime juice, the recipe for mortar, the method for making slime gel, and the recipe for orichalcum, these were all figured out by predecessors.
However, due to the limitations of the times, we were unable to exert our full strength.
Horn's thousands of alchemy priests, who can even grow to nearly 10,000 or even tens of thousands of people, are the exclusive guarantee of these alchemy workshops.
Once these slime workshops are built, who will they sell them to? Isn’t it the Salvation Army?
Then Horn becomes their bread and butter again.
Even if Black Snake Bay wants to oppose Horn at that time, the people below are responsible for the food and clothing of millions of slime farmers, and they will not be able to vote against it.
But I still have to pretend for now.
After telling her story about the slime workshop, Lulesi frowned and looked at him: "If you do this, won't you expose the formula? Aren't you afraid...ah, I understand.”
Horn smiled, even if the formula is exposed, there will be no problem. Where can others find so many alchemy priests, let alone the sharp sword of the Labor Law? It's on the forehead.
In terms of the alchemy industry, in terms of labor force level and labor force size, who can compare with Horn?
Lulesi looked at Horn's smiling face with unknown meaning. After thinking for a long time, she still didn't say anything.
It’s his son-in-law anyway. These things belonging to Ruo An’s party are going to be handed over to them. Let’s take advantage of it. They are all one family anyway.
