I'm in the Red Mansion

Chapter 83 Feng Ziying's words provoke Xue Wenlong

In Feng Ziying's opinion, as long as he successfully implemented his junior brother's promotion plan, within three to five days at most, all the noble ladies in the capital would know about the new product!
The new product will soon become all the rage throughout the capital.

After the new product sells well, when faced with those merchants who come to you, how should you guide them and lure them into the trap?

Jia Cong has very specific and highly practical steps here.

Every step made Feng Ziying praise and applaud.

Feng Ziying even asked the waiter to bring him pen, ink, paper and inkstone so that he could take careful notes.

As time went by, Feng Ziying recorded more and more records, and his admiration for Jia Cong also gradually increased.

The thinking of the junior brother was as wild and unconstrained as an antelope's horns, which really amazed him!
After recording everything, Feng Ziying couldn't help but sigh: "Little Junior Brother, you are so talented! I admire you so much!"

"Oh, I almost forgot the most important thing, which is the production issue."

"The formula and production method were naturally provided by Junior Brother."

"The shop still needs to purchase raw materials, so just leave it to the Xue family."

"After we stock up on a batch of new products, we can follow what Junior Brother said and adopt the hunger sales method to further promote the reputation of our new products."

"Now, you can hand over the formula and production techniques to me, your senior brother."

"Senior brother will take care of the rest, and I just need to focus on my studies."

Jia Cong nodded, then said to Feng Ziying: "Big Brother, I will write the recipe for you later."

"Among the raw materials, the most important one is alcohol."

"Alcohol is expensive, and I have only found one source so far, and they are only willing to deal with me."

"As for how much you need each month, I'll ask a nephew from the same clan to buy it and send it over."

"My nephew is called Jia Yun. I will ask him to take over when the time comes."

From this business, Jia Cong only received 40% of the dividends.

But in fact, Jia Cong is the weakest link among the partners, even worse than Liu Xianglian.

Later, after the formula and technology are mastered, the other partners can completely ignore Jia Cong.

Although they couldn't really do that, Jia Cong had to be on guard.

Alcohol is the weapon that Jia Cong uses to protect himself.

Without alcohol, rouge and powder cannot be produced.

Is it difficult to purify alcohol?
In fact, it is not very high, but it still has a certain technical content, and it is not afraid of being cracked in a short period of time.

After all, extracting alcohol is not something you can do by simply boiling wine in a pot.

After all, alcohol and water are infinitely miscible in each other. If you don't understand that their melting points are different, the alcohol and water will evaporate together, making it difficult to purify the alcohol.

Even if it can be purified, it is difficult to obtain high-purity alcohol.

As long as Jia Cong controls the alcohol, he can control his life and safely reap 40% of the profit.

At the same time, he can also make extra profits from alcohol.

And when the Chamber of Commerce is established later, he will certainly supply alcohol to other businesses.

It can be said that the profit from alcohol alone is not much less than that from rouge and powder.

Feng Ziying looked at Jia Cong deeply, nodded and said, "Junior brother, I will ask someone to hand over to Brother Yun."

Jia Cong nodded, then wrote down the recipe and handed it to Feng Ziying. After the handover, Feng Ziying was so excited that he had no appetite for wine.

He poured a bowl of wine, drank it all in one gulp, stood up and said to Jia Cong and Liu Xianglian: "My two junior brothers, I will go to discuss business with Wenlong now. Excuse me!"

"It's my fault this time. Next time, I'll host a proper banquet and apologize to my two junior brothers!"

Liu Xianglian laughed and said, "Big Brother is also working for our business, what's wrong with that? Big Brother, if you need me to do anything, just let me know."

"I don't have the talent of a junior brother, nor the ability of a senior brother, but as long as I can do it, I will not refuse."

Feng Ziying walked out while smiling and said, "I will have to trouble you later, Second Junior Brother. You guys have some wine, I will go ahead."

The two men sent Feng Ziying out the door, and when they came back, they seemed a little less interested.

After a quick drink, they went their separate ways.

……

Feng Ziying knew Xue Pan well. After leaving Qingfeng Tower, he went directly to Baihua Tower. He found Xue Pan drinking and partying with the girls in Baihua Tower and drove away all the serving girls in the room.

Xue Pan was drunk at the time, and seeing this, he couldn't help but ask with his eyes half-drunk, "I wonder what Brother Feng is doing? But I blame you for not calling you this time, brother?"

"Brother Feng, you really wronged me. It's not that I didn't want to call Brother Feng, but I just couldn't find your people..."

Feng Ziying poured Xue Pan a cup of sobering tea.

Then he slowly asked, "Wenlong, do you want to do something big? Earn money quietly, and then ask your aunt, will she still look down on you?"

Feng Ziying really understood Xue Pan, and his words really touched the heart of Xue Pan.

Although Xue Pan has a lot of bad habits, he still thinks highly of himself.

I feel that I just don’t want to do it. If I wanted to do it, I would definitely make a lot of money.

He was scolded by Aunt Xue all day long, and had long wanted to do something successful so that Aunt Xue would look at him with new eyes.

Now, how can I not be happy after hearing what Feng Ziying said?
He hurriedly pulled Feng Ziying aside and asked, "Brother, good brother, I wonder what good business you have come across? You must take me with you. Whether I can make a name for myself or not depends on you!"

Feng Ziying smiled and said, "Actually, this business was originally thought up by your cousin Cong from the Jia family."

Next, Feng Ziying narrated the matter of rouge and powder to Xue Pan.

Then he said, "Brother Cong said he needed to find a partner, and he recommended you, Wenlong."

"I know you, Wenlong, very well. If you are a drunkard, you are not the best brother!"

"But when it comes to doing serious work, I'm not looking down on you as your elder brother. I just think you have high aspirations but low skills, and you are not up to the task."

"Unexpectedly, Brother Cong strongly recommended me, saying that Wenlong just didn't use his mind in the right way. If he used his mind in the right way, he would definitely be an excellent helper."

"I can't refuse, so I want to give you a chance. If you really want to invest, let's talk it out first."

"It would be fine if you really did it, but if you delay the work because of drinking and fooling around, then I will turn against you as your brother and kick you out."

Hearing this, Xue Pan glared and said, "My parents gave me life, but my brother Cong knows me best!"

"Brother Feng, don't judge people by their appearance. You will look down on them!"

"Should I, Xue Wenlong, be absurd, confused and incompetent for the rest of my life and be unable to do any serious work? This time, I am determined to do something serious so that all of you can see!"

"Don't say anything else. Just tell me how much money you need and what you want me to do."
