A Big Business in a Pot of Lard
Chapter 19:A Big Business in a Pot of Lard
“Bigger business than thousands?”Bob looked at Tang Yi suspiciously.
Don opened the two wooden boxes and took out the things inside.
"I'll tell you, the boy is here today for this big business, I don't know if Uncle Zhang is interested?"
“Is that what you mean by big business?”
"Yes, that's what I call big business."
A glance at the wooden box, can not help but look down on the dark: "What kind of big business this can be?"Just a few candles, plus...
Plus a few other pieces of oily yellow stuff, I don't know.
Pick up a "block" candle, Zhang Bai abandoned his mouth, "this thing can also be taken out to sell."Point to it and make money, and your boy will die!”
Tang Yisuo blushed and scratched his head in embarrassment.
Nor is it to blame for being despised by Zhang Quanfu, and Tang Yi's candle is indeed too rough, or not, it can't be described as "block".
Tang Yi is just a wax extracted from lard waste, using a porcelain bowl to make a mold, and put a coarse cotton thread to do it for it to solidify, and it is difficult to see to die.
“Time is in a hurry to make a difference.If you always think so, then make the mold more fine.”
Zhang Bo nodded, Tang Yi did not say this wrong, the quality of wax is no longer the color, want to give it color shaping is easy.The most important thing is to light up, see whether the candle is bright enough and the smoke is small enough.
Holding the bowl-shaped oily and yellow candles carefully, Zhang Bo gradually closed his contempt.A long time asked tentatively, “Is this... oil wax?”
“The wax.”
“Oil or goat oil?”
The Song people illuminate the ordinary people's homes are oil lamps, and candles are things that rich people can afford.
Among the various waxes, the last candle is paraffin, that is, a natural wax.There are many impurities, the smoke fire is small, which is a little brighter than the oil lamp, so the price is not high.
Even better is the insect wax, the smoke is slightly smaller, the fire is also brighter than the paraffin, and the price is moderate.
The most advanced is oil wax, the main raw materials are butter and goat oil.The smoke is bright, which is liked by large families, the price is also the highest, and the good butter wax needs thirty words.
"This is lard wax."Tang Yi explained.
“Oh...” Uncle looked at him.The cost of lard is much lower than that of butter and sheep oil.If Tang Yi has a way to use lard for wax, it is a financial road, and the profit will be much higher than other waxes.
I just don’t know what fireworks are.
The life man lit the wax, and Zhang Bo looked at the bright fire, and was even more happy.
"Good!The fire is small, it is a good wax!”
“Is there a lot of wax?How much wax is a pound of lard?”As a businessman, Zhang immediately thought of the cost problem.If wax is the same as butter wax, then this is really a good business.
"Ten pounds of lard is almost ten fine wax."Don answered truthfully.
“What?”Zhang Bo was so angry that he jumped straight to his feet, "Ten pounds of oil is only ten fine wax?"
When he was in a chair, he looked very depressed.
I thought that this boy had really found a way of wealth, but in the end it was empty.
The best butter wax is only thirty words.Even if Tang Yi made wax and cow wax at the same price, a 30 text, ten is only 300 articles.
That's 10 pounds of lard!Even if it is cheaper than butter, ten pounds of pigs must be nearly consistent.The cost of these ten oil wax light is more than one hundred articles per piece, selling 30 articles.Not to die?
Tang Yi smiled faintly, "You are in a hurry, and this one."
Tang Yi took out a piece of soap and handed it to Zhang Bo.
Uncle Bob took it uninterestingly, looking left to right, “What is this?”
This thing is half the size of a slap, like wax non-wax, start smoothly, Zhang Bo really can not recognize.
"It's called soap, laundry and bathing."Tang Yi explained that in order to reflect the magic of soap in a more image, Tang Yi asked people to take a pot of water and let Zhang Bo wash his hands with soap.
In this era, the fine oil wax can not reach the level of future generations, there are always some incomplete reactions of oil residue in the wax.Zhang had just grabbed the oil wax drum for half a day, and it was inevitable that some greasy hands were on his hands, just washing his hands with soap.
As the soap was rubbed in his hand, Zhang Bo was surprised to find that this thing could not be left without leaving his hands when the water was stained, and the delicate white foam in the washroom was very magical.When the foam is washed, the hands become clean, which is much faster than usual, and it is much cleaner and cleaner.
"Good!Good thing!”Chamber of Remarks.
“It can also be used for washing clothes, and the ability to decontaminate is stronger than the soap angle.”
“ Really?”Uncle Bob’s eyes were brighter.
Compared to those oil waxes, this is the real baby.You know, the production of soap angle is very small, the price on the market is also high, only rich people can afford it.If this soap is better than soap angle, the price is certainly not low.
“Uh...” The rabbi suddenly clung to him.“How much does this soap cost?”
The heart said, don't be like those oil waxes, it is a sky-high price, then there is nothing to make head.
Tang Yi replied with a smile: "Ten pounds of lard out of twenty pieces of soap."
“Twenty dollars of lard?”The rabbi groaned, so it was a lot of money.
Zhang Bo reacted with a moment of hesitation, "this soap is also made of lard?"
“Yes!”Tang Yi replied.
"In fact, in order to ensure the purity of the soap, when refining, only the top layer of the material for soap, the middle of the turbidity to make candles."If the requirements are lower, ten pounds of oil out of thirty bars of soap is also possible.”
“Wait!”Bob rolled his eyes.“You mean that this soap and oil wax are made of a pot of oil?”
“Yes...”
“That is to say, ten pounds of oil can produce twenty bars of soap, plus ten candles?”
“Yes!”
“It sent!”
Uncle Zhang called out, causing the outsider's fellows and the fourth mother to look at it.Zhang Quanfu is nearly half a hundred years old, and it is rarely as bad as it is now.
“Boy, you are grown up!”The voice of the uncle is unabated, and he sincerely laments.
He thought that it was just soap, and the price of each block was certainly not a problem.Twenty dollars is two dollars, which is equivalent to doubling the cost, which is already a profit.Where do you think that the original oil wax is also something out of the pot, which is not the same as white pick?
He immersed in the grocery business for decades, the most clear thing about what the people's home spend the most, is these daily use of gadgets.However, the profits of these daily necessities are extremely thin, although the sales are large, and they are not much earned.If the soap had double the profit, he would not have thought that after the soap was popular, the surplus in Dengzhou would be much of a revenue.
He did not know that this soap was much more durable than the soap angle.The soap angle of a hundred texts can not be used several times, and a bar of soap is used a dozen times, and dozens of times may not be used.So, the estimate of 100 is too low.
Tang Yi looked at the old man excited, not to worry.
“The boy told you before, what business in the world is the most profitable?”
“The monopoly!”
“The monopoly!”
He spoke with one voice and Tang Yi said those two words at the same time.Now, he finally understood the true meaning of Tang Yi’s words that day.
Monopoly, this soap business monopoly in Tang Yi's hands, want to use soap can only buy from his hands, that is how much profit!
“Daro...” Thinking about it, Zhang Bo couldn’t help but get up again and asked tentatively, “Is there any horse family in this business?”
Tang Yi laughed, “Have you forgotten?”
“We are two names, one family!”
