I'm a scumbag

Chapter 97 This is a huge business

When Ning Chen and Wu Xian heard this, they both understood it.

Wu Xian looked at Ning Chen eagerly and said, "What does Master Ning need?"

Ning Chen glanced at Wan Hong, Wan Hong said: "My lord, we can ask the lord to reduce or exempt the capital's wine tax for our wine business."

This is a good idea.

There was a trend of drinking in the Wu Dynasty, so the wine tax came into being.

Liquor taxes are not cheap, accounting for almost one-third of the price of alcohol.

If the wine tax can be exempted, even if there is no good wine, you can make a lot of money by dumping it at a low price.

Ning Chen is still short of money. After all, the ten thousand taels of gold that was rewarded is actually brass, and it cannot be exchanged for hundreds of taels of silver.

"Okay, you two discuss and write a document to reduce or exempt alcohol tax. I will file a case later, and then you can live here temporarily." Ning Chen said to Wu Xian.

After hearing Ning Chen's words, Wu Xian directly suggested: "Why don't I write more while I can, and keep that and that.

And even though I've been demoted to a commoner, those people before don't want to have anything to do with me.

But I can introduce you to Master Ning. "

Ning Chen looked at the active Wu Xian and said, "What do you want?"

Wu Xian said: "The wine business counts as [-]% of my shares, as long as I have a source of income."

"You're not greedy, but [-]% is too much, I can only count you as [-]%." Ning Chen said.

"Half shares?"

Wu Xian hesitated for a while, but finally agreed.

Although half of the shares may only be distributed to a few hundred taels of silver in a year, which is less than the previous day's expenses, but it is better than no income.

"Okay, you two hurry up and discuss and write, before you are still the prince, let's use your remaining heat." Ning Chen urged.

Wan Hong and Wu Xian worked together for half an hour, and came out with a stack of documents, all of which were stamped with Wu Xian's king seal.

"My lord, if we can keep one-twelfth of this, we will make money." Wan Hong said excitedly.

Ning Chen probably couldn't keep one out of ten.

It would be nice to keep one or two in total.

Of course, the main thing is the liquor tax.

"I'll send it for the record. You guys wait for me at Boss Wan's house. I'll tell you later how to use that thing."

After Ning Chen ordered, he took a stack of paperwork and went out.

Ning Chen went directly to Jingzhao Mansion and found Cao Xing.

Then he handed over the stack of documents to Cao Xing.

After Cao Xing saw it, he also felt dizzy for a while.

"Lord Ning, don't say that the fifth prince will be a commoner soon, even if he is not a commoner, it is impossible to pass anything in it."

Ning Chen took out the wine tax: "This is the main thing. The other adults will help me figure it out. Your Highness, I will talk to Your Highness later."

Cao Xing took a look at the wine tax reduction and exemption, but it was not too much, so he nodded and said: "This is fine, but His Highness, you can only rely on adults."

"Excuse me, Mr. Cao. After a while, I will treat Mr. Cao to drink my newly invented wine." Ning Chen said to Cao Xing.

Cao Xing cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Lord Ning."

After leaving Cao Xing's place, Ning Chen entered the palace again.

After looking for someone to report, Ning Chen came to the East Palace again.

He told Wu Zhao about the matter concisely, and Wu Zhao didn't make things difficult for Ning Chen, but agreed to Ning Chen's request that he could keep the alcohol tax reduction.

After leaving the palace, Ning Chen went directly to Wan Hong's home in Yanzuofang.

After entering the basement, Ning Chen saw the distillation equipment assembled by Wan Hong according to his own drawings.

Ning Chen is quite clear about the secondary distillation of wine.

When Ning Chen was a child, he often went to the four-person wine shop in the village to drink for his father.

So Ning Chen knows what kind of thing it is, how to use it.

Of course, it is limited to the kind of loose wine in rural areas.

But for Wu Chao, they have never seen that kind of double-distilled baijiu, and it doesn't matter whether it is loose wine or not.

Ning Chen took Wan Hong's jar of wine, poured it into a container, and then began to heat it up.

After a short effort, transparent and clean wine droplets flowed out from the other end of the condenser tube.

When it was small at first, Wu Xian and Wan Hong didn't feel anything.

However, when there was more and more wine, the strong aroma of wine directly permeated the entire room.

Especially the distilled wine is very clean.

Compared with the previous jar of wine, it was really a world of difference.

Wanhong's wine here is already considered a high-quality product.

But it is still unavoidably cloudy, and at the same time there will be some sour taste.

But after Ning Chen's treatment, the wine was as pure as water.

The point is that the aroma of this wine is too strong, and you will get drunk when you smell it.

Wan Hong stared at the crystal drops of wine flowing out, his small eyes narrowed into slits.

This isn't wine, it's nothing but white money.

Wan Hong has no doubts at all, if this wine is on the market, all the wines on the market will have no way out.

As for how big this market is, it can be said to be infinite.

Not to mention anything else, just how big is Jingshi's wine business in a year?

Fengjing has a population of over one million, and five or six out of ten drink alcohol.

A person spends as little as three or four taels of silver a year on wine, and as much as tens of thousands.

Even if all of them are counted as three or four taels, it is a business of several million taels.

If it is extended to the entire Great Wu Dynasty, it will be a big business of tens of millions of taels.

As for the profit, Wan Hong thinks half of it is less.

Wu Xian is not an idiot either, it also understands how valuable its half of the shares are.

There are tens of thousands of taels of silver in the account every year, which is more than the annual salary when I was a prince.

Not to mention continuing to maintain the treatment I received as a prince, it is not a problem to exceed the treatment I received as a prince.

"I'm just doing relatively simple processing. Next, you can find a trustworthy brewer to blend with some old wine, and you can get more types.

At the same time, you can also make some high-quality ones, and make some medicinal wines and the like.In short, there can be many tricks. "

Ning Chen poured two glasses of distilled wine for Wu Xian and Wan Hong.

The two of them just sucked and both felt drunk.

But it must be admitted that the aroma of this wine really has a fatal attraction for those who love wine.

Moreover, Ning Chen has come up with so many tricks, it's hard not to make money from this business.

The key is that their wine can be exempted from wine tax, which is another huge profit.

"This method is still unique to us, occupy the market as soon as possible, and at the same time make the name of this wine so that everyone will remember the name of our wine.

In this way, even if someone knows this method in the future, it will be difficult to enter again. "Ning Chen continued to popularize the concepts of market share and brand effect for Wanhong.

This concept is indeed ahead of Wan Hong, but Wan Hong is a shrewd businessman after all.

After a little thought, you will understand, the truth here.

"My lord, how many shares do you want to own in this business?" Wan Hong asked Ning Chen cautiously.

Ning Chen thought for a while and said, "Fifty percent, the remaining forty-five percent goes to you, and half goes to him."

Wan Hong didn't expect that Ning Chen was willing to give himself [-]%, which was too much.

"My lord, in fact, two achievements are enough for me." Wan Hong said.

If [-]% is done well, it will be several million profits a year, of course Wan Hong is enough.

Ning Chen shook his head: "First of all, I didn't invest any money, the main production and sales are all yours.

Secondly, this method is very simple to put it bluntly, and it is impossible for us to monopolize it for a long time.

At that time, the market will definitely be divided, and the profits will be shared at that time.

Make sure you can sustain it, and you are willing to continue to do things for me. "

Now that he decided to use Fatty Wan, Ning Chen had to explain his words to Fatty Wan.

　In the interim, by the way, open a way of making money for Mr. Ning, and pave the way for the future.In addition, it should be on the shelves at zero o'clock on the first day. If you work hard on Saturdays and Sundays, you should be able to explode about [-] words. At that time, you still need a lot of support. The specific rules for adding more rules will be written when you write your testimonials. Write, say hello to everyone first, then I really have to ask everyone, circle around Ruisibai
