Chapter 8 Brewing
The harassment was so serious that Zheng Xiong simply refused to show up. The pharmacy told everyone not to let anyone in without permission.
But some people are easy to deal with, and some people are very difficult to deal with.
His immediate superior, Yingtian Mansion Yin Zheng Yiyan, immediately called someone over.
It's not like asking for wine directly. It probably means that the alcohol produced by Huimin Pharmacy is beneficial to the country and the people. It is a good thing and I want to ask the emperor for credit. The conversation changed to whether this wine is really good wine.
Although Zheng Xiong was a straight-headed person in his previous life, he still understood the obvious meaning.
What else could I do? I took a pound of alcohol and let the errand boy take it away. I have to thank Mr. Fu Yin for his support.
It’s okay if I don’t give it, but if I give you a little shoe to wear and find something for you every now and then, I’ll have a headache.
Zheng Xiong wants to be a salty fish and doesn't want to cause trouble. He can avoid such troubles whenever possible.
Fu Yin gave it to Fu Yin, and Fu Yin pretended to have arrived.
The Six Ministers have sent people here again. I can't afford to offend them. Give them, one pound per person.
In the future, the nobles who follow Lao Zhu to conquer the world will not be able to satisfy them at all. One pound will not satisfy them. They will eat hundreds of pounds. It is said that there are many injured people under the tent, and they will use it to treat external injuries. But how much goes into their own stomachs
I can't say for sure. Although it is an internal procurement and the payment is made.
It was also very troublesome, so I quickly made another batch of crude wine and distilled it.
After finally working overtime to get rid of these batches, Lao Zhu's son sent someone again. He didn't waste any nonsense and just threw money at them. He couldn't afford to offend him.
With no rest, Zheng Xiong and several others worked overtime.
One after another, and then the Taiyuan Hospital, which is directly for the common people of the world. A big hat is put on it. Besides, I will have to deal with it in the future. In the end, Lao Zhu also ended up, it was a routine. The first official was promoted two levels, and Zheng Xiong became the eighth grade.
Sesame Official. Because some wine is really used to clean wounds and prevent bacterial infections from getting worse. The effect is remarkable, and the imperial edict was issued after seeing the effect.
Yes, the benefits are also given. Do you want to give them to the emperor's face? I made another batch of offerings.
After going around, I made a lot of money. Except for Lao Zhu who didn't pay, some of them were given away for free, and others gave money. Zheng Xiong was not used to it, and the money he received was not polite. There are ten coins on the market.
A kilogram of grain can be produced, which can be sold for twenty or so. The cost of distilled liquor is only twenty or thirty kilograms, and the sales price is two hundred and a kilogram. I don’t dare to go too far. All the wines on the market have been sold.
Zheng Xiong bought it and could vaguely guess some clues.
Everything actually has its fixed value. Nowadays, wine is very refreshing because it has a certain therapeutic effect and because it is rare and expensive.
If you want to sell it more expensively, you have to give it another value. For example, brand value and packaging. Then you need to give it a heritage, clear years, one year, two years, and a century-old cellar.
Finally, there is the market segmentation. In the liquor war, medicated wine has a way out. This medicated wine can be written down in a notebook. It is professionally matched, and the alcohol concentration reaches the standard, so it can be brewed with anything.
Putting away the scattered four dimensions, Zheng Xiong looked at the bill. In less than half a month, he sold more than 10,000 jins of wine and made 1,500 guan. This was just a casual effort and only supplied a small group of people.
.If it is open for sale, the figures will be astronomical.
Although this period of time is very tiring, which is not in line with Zheng Xiong's purpose of fishing, everyone loves money. Zheng Xiong is no exception. It doesn't matter if he is tired, he is happy if he doesn't look at it.
Not to mention that with this money, the cakes painted in the past are not only for looking at but not eating, they should be expanded.
However, this can be slowed down first. The market for high-alcohol wine is huge and has just begun. It is not just to satisfy the appetite. Although Meng Yuan was beaten to a corner, there are still frictions. This year, Lao Zhu has another
After a conquest, just supplying the military was a huge market.
You would be a fool if you don't make money. If it really affects people's livelihood, Lao Zhu will be worried.
However, during this period of shopping, ordinary low-alcohol wine is either out of stock or has increased in price, making it difficult to buy.
Zheng Xiong still has many orders in hand, and these alone may not be enough to support such a large market.
It seems that I have to try brewing. This is the basic plan. It will be uncomfortable if I get stuck one day.
I did it as soon as I thought of it, and called Wang Er, Zhao San, and Zhang Yi. During this period, these few people were busy working, and no one else was invited to come. Each of them was rewarded with a certain amount of money.
After this period of time, these people are very familiar with the process of making alcohol. They all know the ins and outs. Even if they are very busy every day, someone will come to dig it every day. If they had not signed the contract and received sky-high compensation, Zheng Xiong would be generous enough.
.Maybe someone has poached him long ago. Even this is not safe.
Zheng Xiong is not entangled. People go to higher places, and water flows to lower places. No one can guess the hearts of people. What Zheng Xiong can give is benefits, and he does his best to obey fate.
When they saw the reward, several people were very happy, and their little thoughts were suppressed for the time being, and they thanked them again and again.
After giving the rewards, they asked them to find a few people who knew how to make wine, and they didn't hide anything. They said they were going to open a large winery and the benefits would be good. Each person would receive a monthly payment, and there would be rewards for good work.
This was a trivial matter for a few people. As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. The craftsmen were basically all together because of the household registration system, so it was not a difficult task, so they took over the matter immediately.
After getting a few people together, Zheng Xiong went to the Ministry of Industry. This time he was familiar with the process, and he quickly finalized the details. He paid the money, signed the contract documents, and spent the fifteen hundred dollars before he was done with it.
The simple distillation equipment has also been upgraded and moved into the warehouse. There are more and bigger stoves. When I was too busy, I built a few more, from one to five, and now to ten.
Divide into left and right and line up in a row.
That's it at this stage, a few people are barely enough. There are too many people, and good things are in their own hands. If you can make some money, make it as soon as possible.
In less than half a month, the brewing workshop was completed and the staff was in place. I purchased a batch of grain and started brewing.
During this period, more than a thousand dollars were recorded.
More than a thousand pounds were spent to build some cellars and warehouses. To prepare for a rainy day, put some in every year, which is the aging of fine wines. This is also the heritage of the winery.
The days passed and the Chinese New Year was not far away. Zheng Xiong also stopped toiling and concentrated on making wine. Orders also reached a peak during this period, and he had no time to think about anything else.
When the pharmacy got rich, it continued to buy herbal medicines. Zheng Xiong also knew what his old line of work was.
Because the treatment of traumatic infections is very effective, the reputation has increased, and the number of people has increased. It is painful and happy, and it has also achieved profits.
Everything is on the right track, and Zheng Xiong has returned to his fishing state. When he gets tired, he goes to give some guidance.
There is not much trouble, just some traders are working tirelessly, and the world is recuperating. Alcohol has the name of treating trauma, and there is no problem if it is brewed by Huimin Pharmacy. But if it is brewed on a large scale and affects people's livelihood, it is to test Lao Zhu's skills.
Knife.
Those with status know that only by doing so can Huimin Pharmacy be free.
