Chapter 15: Borrowing Money
On the wine table, Lu Hong completely became the background. Wu Kai happily talked with Gao Yuan about some craftsmanship of winemaking. When it came to the sound, he couldn't help laughing at the table. At this time, Wu Kai looked like a county magistrate. Alcohol dealer.
"Master Wu, I think the method of selling wine you just mentioned can be improved." After drinking a few cups of the high-quality wine made by himself, Gao Yuan also felt a little drunk.
"Oh, if you talk about the craftsmanship of winemaking, your nephew Gao is a connoisseur, but in selling wine, my Wu family has been in business for so many years and generations. Is there any reason why it is inferior to you?" Wu Kai said dissatisfiedly.
Gao Yuan laughed and said: "I didn't say it before, just for our wine, has Master Wu thought about how to sell it?"
"Could it be that you have any new ideas?"
"Of course there is!"
"Dare to hear the details?" Wu Kai widened his eyes and cupped his hands. In his eyes, Gao Yuan was no longer just a casual young man, but a valuable partner.
Gao Yuan smiled and brought a jar of wine from the Wu family over, poured half a bowl, and then poured another half of his own wine, "Sir, is there a big difference?"
"Of course!" Wu Kai said dissatisfiedly, "otherwise why would I cooperate with you?"
Gao Yuan smiled, spread out several bowls in front of him, poured in some wine from Wu's family, then mixed in some high-quality wine, and in turn, the Wu family's wine became less and less, and his own wine became more and more. , until the last bowl, all of which are their own wine, at this time, the wine in several bowls is clearer than the other.
"Sir, do you understand? This first bowl is the original wine of your family. I don't know how much it used to sell for a pound?"
"Five cents!" Wu Kai stretched out a finger and looked at the wine bowl on the table, "I understand what you mean, the second bowl will naturally be sold for six or seven cents, the third bowl will be at least ten cents, the fourth The starting price for a bowl starts at 20 cents!" Wu Kai's eyes became brighter and he counted up all the way, "I will sell this last bowl for a pound of consistent money, I'm afraid some people will buy it!"
With a snap, Gao Yuan clapped his palms together, "Master Wu, you have become an official instead of going into business, which is really a big loss to the business world."
"If I don't do this official, how can I let the Wu family manage the wine exclusively in Fufeng, and it will be smooth sailing?" Wu Kai said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, official business and official business, only the official business and the business can be monopolized and monopolized to generate huge profits." Gao Yuan nodded again and again, deeply agreeing." This wine is sold in this way, there is a natural distinction between the comparison, and the wine is divided into grades, Those with status will naturally not buy low-end wine. The more expensive our wine is, the more face they have. Therefore, Mr. Wu, this best wine should not be produced too much, and it must always be bought from outside. More, we will sell less, as for the rest, the more the better!"
"Great plan, great plan!" Wu Kai laughed, "My Wu family has sold wine for several lifetimes, but I can't imagine that it is better than nephew Gao, wake up the dreamer with a word, and make a fortune together in the future!"
"Everyone gets rich, everybody gets rich!" Gao Yuan laughed.
Lu Hong couldn't say anything, and looked at the two people talking happily, and thought with contempt, two profiteers! Seeing the high-level talk with Wu Kai, it is not surprising that this nephew himself watched He grew up all the way, but he didn't realize that he still had this ability.
The wine has been enjoyed, Wu Kai was thinking about going back and instructing the master at home to get the scriptures, so he got up and said goodbye, and Gao Yuan also got up and said goodbye to Lu Hong. Today, I was originally sending wine to Lu Hong to show his filial piety, but it was made in a blink of an eye. A big business, although only half of the shares, but as long as the business is big, it is difficult not to make a fortune.
The two went out together. Magistrate Wu was about to get into the carriage, but Gao Yuan stepped forward and grabbed Wu Kai's sleeve, "Master Wu, Gao Yuan still has something to ask for, I wonder if I can answer it?"
"Nephew Gao, please speak!"
Gao Yuan sniffed and said embarrassedly, "I'm going to take office in the next two days, but I heard from my uncle that the soldier I'm going to owe half a year's pay, and it's not good for me to go now. As a human being, if you want to borrow a little bit from the adults to get through the difficulties, will you deduct it from my shares at that time?"
"Hahaha, we just cooperated, I haven't seen anything yet, you'll come to fight the autumn wind first!" Wu Kai laughed, "How much do you want to borrow?"
"One thousand sticks!" Gaoyuan lion said loudly, ready to bargain.
"Your uncle can also take this money, why should you ask me to borrow it?" Wu Kai thought thoughtfully.
"Because it's my uncle, it's not easy to speak!" Gao Yuan smiled and said: "Besides, the uncle's family has no business, so how can Master Wu be active? Even if the uncle agrees, the aunt must be reluctant. I don't want to. I'm gone, my uncle's backyard is on fire!"
Gao Yuan said it interestingly, Wu Kai smiled and said: "One thousand guan, not a big amount, anyway, now you have money to pay it back, tomorrow, I will ask the master to bring it over together."
"Thank you so much, lord!" Gao Yuan was overjoyed and fell to the ground, "It's really a pleasure to work with your lord."
"It's also a pleasure to work with you!" Wu Kai said: "You have so many tricks, um, this wine is really good today, but I still want to ask, can the quality of this wine be improved?"
"Sir, isn't this quality in front of you enough?" Gao Yuan didn't say yes or no, he laughed and walked away.
Looking at Gao Yuanyuan's figure, Wu Kai stroked his beard, "Interesting, interesting!"
Back at home, Zhang Yi quickly repaired the ear door, and hovered beside the ear door for a while, but Gao Yuan finally didn't touch the next door to knock on the window, and finally decided to take a good night's sleep, there will be more tomorrow. I'm busy, it seems that my appointment date will be postponed for two days. Speaking of which, I still have to build two weapons that I can take advantage of.
As soon as the day broke, Gao Yuan was woken up by Zhang Yi, who said that the housekeeper of the Wu County magistrate had dragged a truckload of copper coins and was moving them into the house. Zhang Yi was so frightened that he could only run to call Gao Yuan. .
"I'm really impatient!" Gao Yuan whispered a few words, turned over and got out of bed, and took out the two weapons he drew last night from the table, "Zhang Yi, when people send money, you can take the money. Then take this pattern, go to the best blacksmith in the city, and use the best materials to build these two weapons for me. I pay triple the price, the sooner the better!"
"Understood!" Zhang Yi admired Gao Yuan now. He was sleeping at home, but someone sent money to his door, and he was also the chief butler of the first Wu County magistrate's house in Fufeng.
Ye Jinger, who came over early in the morning to prepare breakfast for Gao Yuan, was also terrified, and ran back in a hurry. The ear door that had just opened made her very convenient. When she ran home, she sent someone from Wu County to send money to Gao Yuan. The Ye family was released, but Ye family didn't make a fuss, and only said: "It's a pity, but the Wu family is cheap for nothing, but Gao Yuan is also smart, this is the best way now." Ye Jing'er was stunned for a while, I didn't even know what my mother meant.
