Chapter 588: ambition

   Mu Yangling met Zhu Liang with passion, explained the specific matters of opening the grain shop, and then went back to find Fan Zijin.

Mu Yangling approached Fan Zijin. One was to apologize. She planned to take over the grain shop business and use her dowry to invest, so she couldn't cooperate with him. The other was to ask him to ask for someone. He was always in charge of the north-south caravan. At the same time, Mu Yangling had someone to go back to transport the two, but she had to ask someone to lead the way, so she asked Fan Zijin for someone who knew the way.

Fan Zijin saw Mu Yangling's face full of guilt, so he twitched the corners of his mouth and said indifferently: "You can do the grain shop business yourself, I will prepare it for you, but you plan to open a few in Lin'an City. Grain shop?"

"One," Mu Yangling said: "I just started, so naturally I will open one first."

Fan Zijin opened his mouth and wanted to ask, then why do you think I will rob you of a grain shop business?

It's not that Fan Zijin is boasting. He has countless businesses under his control now, not to mention just a grain shop. Even if he sent him the grain shop business in Lin'an City, he would still hesitate whether to accept it or not.

In the beginning, Mu Yangling proposed that Fan Zijin did not object to the grain shop business. Most of it was based on the past friendship between the two, otherwise he would not be involved.

Grain is a thing with small profits but quick turnover. The unit price does not make much money, and it takes a lot of effort. To do a grain shop business, you have to have a backing. To make a lot of money, unless you hoard grain in disaster years, of course, now is the war time, and grain is also It’s very expensive. If it was still Da Zhou, Fan Zijin might have stepped up, but now it’s Daqi. If Fan Zijin had a foot in the grain store, wouldn’t he be digging the foot of his big cousin?

Now he manages wood, silk, tea, salt, and even iron. He used to have a hand in meat processing. He used to be a very small part of his business empire. The share in it is not very large, which shows how much he looks down on the business of Mu Yangling's grain shop.

Originally, he planned to separate a manager to run the business after seeing the friendship between the two. Since Mu Yangling wanted to do it alone, he could not ask for it.

However, he asked a curious question. You must know that Mu Yangling asked people to tell him what business ideas he could do. He would then allocate funds and manpower to run the business, and the final profit would be divided according to the previous share ( Although they have never paid dividends, they have all contributed to the Daqi army), now it is too rare for Mu Yangling to eat alone.

Of course, Mu Yangling couldn't talk about his own thoughts, so he just said: "I think this grain shop business will eventually gain both fame and fortune, so I plan to monopolize it."

Fan Zijin believed that she was a ghost, and waved his hand: "If you don't want to say it, just come and ask me if you don't have enough money." Fan Zijin paused and asked, "Have you got all the people? You can't go from north to south. a short time."

"There is no shortage of people. There are retired soldiers in Haoran, and the people who **** the caravan will be selected from there. The shop will be handed over to Wang Quan first, as long as there is a person who leads the way."

Wang Quan was the son of Wang Ma, so he came down from Jingzhao Mansion with Director Zhu. He had worked in the shop before, so Mu Yangling was very relieved to use it.

"My eldest cousin has now let me take care of Huangzhuang, and I will let you keep the more precious rice such as bijaponica rice for you, but the others have to be sold to other grain shops as usual. Wait for your grain shop one day. Be bigger, I don't mind signing a contract with you instead."

Mu Yangling was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand hurriedly: "No, no, I don't sell that kind of expensive rice, only some coarse grains."

Fan Zijin was displeased, "What price can you sell for a few cents a pound of coarse grain? You can't raise the price of grain, can you?"

Mu Yangling's original intention was not to sell grain, but to sell grain seeds, so that the seeds they cultivated could be planted all over the country, not to mention, the accumulation of small amounts of money is now the most common people.

Mu Yangling briefly talked about his ambition and dominance, but Fan Zijin didn't finish listening at all. He only heard that the main job of the grain shop was to promote grain seeds, and he waved his hand: "Most of the people like to keep their own seeds, you will Corn seeds are transported from north to south. You can still make a lot of money in the first year, but it will be difficult to make more money in the second year. You must know that the rich people in Jiangnan hold corn seeds. When they see you start selling them, they will definitely not It will be hidden and tucked away, and the competition will be big, and you will not make any money."

Mu Yangling said: "I didn't want to use corn seeds to make money. At that time, this kind of seed will still be 12 cents a pound..."

Fan Zijin said with a headache: "At this price, you will also equalize the toll. You are bothering to open this grain shop to do good things?"

Mu Yangling said blankly: "No, I still make money, but the people are so poor that if the price is set too high, they can't afford it..."

Fan Zijin said happily: "It's fortunate that you want to monopolize this business, otherwise my Fan Zijin's reputation will be ruined, okay, you can go back quickly, don't ask me for money, and come back when you close the grain shop. "

Where is this business, it is simply charity.

Mu Yangling was indignant, and complained to Qi Haoran when he came home at night: "Zi Jin didn't even listen to me, I've calculated it all, it's not a loss to sell it for twelve pennies a pound, we buy it in Beidi. The corn cost only eight cents per catty. Although it takes a lot of travel expenses to get here, as long as the scale is not small each time, I can earn one and a half cents per catty. "

Qi Haoran nodded again and again, calculated in his heart, a catty is worth a penny, and a thousand catties is one or two or five cents of silver...

Qi Haoran looked at his chattering wife, opened his mouth, and wanted to say that Zijin could earn a couple of tea leaves for one or two bucks of silver.

However, Qi Haoran is not obsessed with money. Although he is very stingy now, he has always been generous with the money he should spend, so he doesn't think there is anything wrong with the grain shop not making money. .

Seeing that Qi Haoran was listening carefully, Mu Yangling was happy in his heart, and said proudly: "I have already planned, when the time comes, if someone can't afford it, then sign a contract with us. At that time, we will provide grain seeds for free, and we only need to return the grain seeds at the time of harvest, and then sell the grown corn to us, and even I have set the price, which is eight cents per pound."

Qi Haoran was stunned and said, "It turns out that it's not that I earn less, but that I'm giving money back!"

Mu Yangling stated, "We didn't pay back, we are fishing for big fish on a long line."

Qi Haoran couldn't help nodding when he saw Mu Yangling's ambitious look, and said helplessly, "Yes, let's catch big fish with a long line."

Qi Haoran thought, he should go to Zijin to ask for money in an emergency, but don't get caught with all the money at home.
