s, even the path leading to the village has become bustling.The tofu workshop by the river was still bustling with activity. News of this had spread, and people were rushing in from all directions. Th...In the distance, Li Yuyao watched Kong Qiu and his four disciples emerge from the paper mill, her eyes flickering with a glimmer of light.
"Sure enough, it's them!"
"Ziyi, have you checked the surroundings"
Ziyi hastily replied, "Your Majesty, please rest assured, this morning I investigated the area within five miles outside the village and found nothing unusual."
Qingyi said, "There's nothing unusual in the village. It seems like they were just here by coincidence, Your Majesty. Would you like to contact them"
Li Yuyao nodded. "Of course, a heaven-sent opportunity, how could we miss it!"
Kong Qiu and his four disciples left the paper mill and became curious about the brick kilns, cement kilns, and tofu shops not far away.
Yang Lin didn't mind, because apart from the cement kilns, there wasn't much technical content in it.
The art of burning cement is more difficult than papermaking and it's not a skill that can be learned by simply looking at it, so Yang Lin wasn't worried at all that the other party would learn anything.
When the four arrived at the tofu shop and saw the tofu-making process, they were astonished once again.
Kong Qiu looked at the process of making tofu, stroked his beard, and sighed: "So this is how tofu is made!"
Ma Ruoyun, however, seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly asked, "This tofu... wouldn't this also be invented by Young Master Yang"
Hearing this, Kong Qiu, Chu Jie, and Yu Zhong all looked at Yang Lin in surprise.
Although they had seen tofu vendors in other places, none of them compared to Yang Lin's in terms of scale or craftsmanship!
And as a business prodigy, Ma Ruyun learned on his way here that this new food called tofu was inexpensive but required a magical elixir to make. This elixir could only be bought in Jianghe County…
At this moment, seeing the scale of Yang Lin's tofu shop here, I suddenly connected it with that medicine water!
He knows that the most profitable part of making tofu is the medicinal water!
Yang Lin was embarrassed again.
"Yes, when I first got married and owed money, I came up with some small inventions to make a little money."
The four disciples were astonished once again.
Ma Ruoyun even more urgently grabbed Yang Lin's hand, excitedly saying: "Brother Yang, could you sell the recipe for your medicine"
But as soon as Ma Ruoyun said this, he regretted it!
He immediately realized that with Yang Lin's business acumen, there was no way he wouldn't know the value of the medicine. Knowing its worth, how could he possibly let me get such a good deal
As expected, Yang Lin smiled and extended a finger.
"Brother Ma, if you want to buy it, I will definitely give Brother Ma the biggest discount, just one million taels of silver."
Ma Ruoyun's mouth twitched.
As expected!
Seeing Ma Ruoyun's reaction, Yang Lin hurriedly explained: "Brother Ma, do you think one million taels is really a lot This is already a very favorable price. If you don't believe me, I can calculate it for you..."
"I believe, I believe! But this one million taels, it's really too much!"
Before Yang Lin could even begin to calculate, Ma Ruyun hurriedly nodded in agreement.
He truly believed that this medicinal water was worth far more than a million taels of silver!
Tofu is cheap, delicious, and can be enjoyed all over the world.
And one food that's popular all over the world, with its recipe held by only one person, then the value of that recipe is self-evident.
He knew its value and believed he could certainly earn back that much money in the future, but to have him take out one million taels of silver to invest in the future... he just didn't have the guts.
That's a million taels of silver!
Just when Ma Ruoyun thought this good business was out of reach for her, Yang Lin spoke up again.
"Brother Ma, besides buying the potion recipe, I actually have a better business opportunity here, one that's even more suitable for you." Yang Lin said with a smile.
"Oh Yang brother, tell me about it!"
Ma Ruoyun suddenly became interested.
Just like the paper business, I can sell the medicine formula to Brother Ma at a low price.
"Brother Ma, you have a wide network of contacts and your business is large-scale. This is your advantage; while I do have the medicine, it would be very difficult for me to sell this kind of medicine throughout the entire Great Qin in a short period of time."
As long as we work together and sell this medicinal water, we can complement each other's strengths and weaknesses, making the medicinal water business a success throughout all of Great Qi! In doing so, you will also be able to earn a substantial profit.
"Come, Brother Ma, let me calculate the profit margin of this medicine..."
Before Ma could finish thinking, Yang Lin had already started calculating the profits from selling medicinal water.
Ma Ru Yun listened and listened, then suddenly realized something was wrong.
This sounds so familiar!
He suddenly widened his eyes. Wasn't this exactly the tactic he used when negotiating with others
Yang Lin is still talking non-stop over here.
"Brother Ma, look, according to my very conservative algorithm just now, you could earn at least 30,000 taels of silver from me this year!"
"And with this business, we can cooperate for a long time, selling for hundreds of years, even thousands of years! Your children and grandchildren, your descendants, can all make a lot of profit through this business!"
"Brother Ma, you calculate, this profit is over a million Definitely more than ten million!"
Ma Ruoyun was still a bit confused. She could realize that the business was indeed profitable, but she just felt like she had been tricked.
And Kong Qiu and the others were truly fooled by Yang Lin's calculations.
Hearing about profits in the millions, even tens of millions, they couldn't help but urge Ma Ruyun to agree quickly.
Ma Ruoyun sighed: "Little Yang, I'm increasingly impressed by you! For your sake, I would do this business even at a loss! It's just that I came out in a hurry this time and didn't have much preparation, so for the medicine business, I will still send someone to follow up with my younger brother."
"Sounds good, sounds good."
Yang Lin let out a chuckle.
As he said, while the gypsum business is highly profitable, selling to those big families in the county towns right now is still too slow a way to make money.
But to sell plaster throughout the entire Dagan kingdom, it would take at least several years without outside help.
Immediately, Kong Qiu and others visited the workshops accompanying the tofu factory, including a workshop for making bean curd sheets, fermented black beans, soy sauce, yellow bean paste... They were once again amazed!
Every single soy product here is something they've never seen before, and the flavors are all unique, each one a marvel like tofu.
A thousand sheets of resilient texture, bean curd with a refreshing and smooth chewiness, yellow soybean sauce complements the meal deliciously, soy sauce with complete aroma, color, and flavor...
Yang Lin casually prepared several bean-based delicacies, leaving the group dazzled.
Kong Qiu was truly shocked.
Having traveled the world for many years, he never knew that a tiny little bean could produce so many different varieties.
Ma Ru Yun was also greatly enlightened, and decided once again that he wanted a share of these businesses too!
And just then, Li Yuhua arrived!Tofu!"Speaking of serious matters, Zhao Zhongming's expression also became serious.Yang Lin was taken aback.County Magistrate That's the second highest ranking official in Jianghe County, only below t...
