Chapter 300 He Family Actions
"Ma'am, this is what happened."
As soon as the next day broke, Wen Baolu told Zhu Mingqing about the He family's plan.
Zhu Mingqing raised his eyes: "So calm?"
Wen Baolu smiled and said, "Madam, you asked me to keep an eye on the He family before. I didn't expect you to find out that they sent people to the sugar factory. I'm sure you must have had plans for the He family long ago."
Zhu Mingqing raised the corner of his mouth slightly and began to introduce the He family.
The He family started their business with malt sugar. Initially, they just opened a candy shop, and later transitioned to various pastry shops. Now they have become the largest malt sugar merchant in the city.
The He family's overall strength is not weak, and its presence is also very strong, but one thing is that the process of its establishment was not clean.
According to Luo Tingshan's investigation results, the He family often embezzled other parties' property under the pretext of cooperation.
Previously in the provincial capital, the other party proposed cooperation with the Wan family. After returning, she began to investigate the other party's background.
Now it’s finally here!
"In that case, why not leave this matter to my subordinates and let the He family be the chicken to scare the monkeys!" Wen Baolu said confidently.
Zhu Mingqing naturally believed in his ability: "Be careful!"
…
Just as the brothers Dacheng and Xiaocheng were anxiously waiting for the result, a team leader arrived.
His face didn't look good. At such a critical moment, anyone who almost had a traitor under his command would definitely not feel good.
"Let's go, Manager Ming is looking for you!"
Dacheng quickly asked, "Team Leader, should everything be alright?"
The team leader ignored them.
Both of them felt uneasy.
When they saw Manager Ming, the two of them stood aside cautiously, not daring to speak.
Wen Baolu saw this and said in a serious tone, "I called you here because it gives you a chance to make amends. If you succeed, the Ming family won't report you to the authorities, and you can stay here!"
Without waiting for him to say what he was going to do, Dacheng immediately patted his chest and said, "We are willing!"
Wen Baolu's gaze fell on Xiaocheng, who looked conflicted. Dacheng pinched him hard, and Xiaocheng immediately assured him, "I'm willing too!"
"It doesn't matter if you don't want to. You can leave the Ming family now. We won't report it to the police!"
Wen Baolu's expression was gentle, but it gave the two brothers an inexplicable chill.
I thought that if I really left the Ming family, I would definitely be abandoned by the He family!
Not to mention making money, even having enough food and clothing is a problem.
In an instant, Xiao Cheng became extremely clear-headed: "Don't worry, Manager Ming, no matter what we are asked to do, we will ensure that it is completed!"
Wen Baolu took out a piece of paper and said, "Write down what's on it, and then find a chance to tell the He family!"
Dacheng took it, looking embarrassed: "...We can't read!"
Wen Baolu glanced at the team leader, who immediately said, "Don't worry, Manager Ming. Leave the rest to me. I will definitely not let you down!"
The team leader also knew Manager Ming's plan. Since the He family wanted to steal the sugar-making method, they would not give up even if they did not succeed!
Why not take advantage of their trick?
Next, Wen Baolu sent people to monitor the He family's actions every day.
Three days later, the housekeeper of the He Mansion took the sugar-making method sent by Dacheng and led his men to quickly leave the city.
At the same time, Mr. He withdrew directly from the malt sugar factory in Youzhou City!
Mr. Wan was very puzzled by this and wanted to persuade the other party, but Mr. He simply used the excuse of feeling unwell and refused to see him!
After making inquiries from many sources, we finally discovered that the He family had also started building a factory, recruiting people and starting to make sugar.
Mr. Wan suddenly became anxious and went straight to the He family's house.
Mr. He showed up this time and said that he had mastered the method of making white sugar.
He looked proud: "Lao Wan, we have been brothers for many years. I will definitely not forget you if there is a business that makes a fortune. So, do you want to come with us?"
Master Wan frowned: "How could the Ming family possibly tell you!"
Mr. He laughed heartily: "You are still so stubborn and conservative. If you want the recipe, there is more than just the Ming family to tell you!"
"For the sake of our long-standing friendship, think it over carefully and tell me in three days. Youzhou is our world, how can we let an outsider like the Ming family strangle us!"
Mr. Wan wanted to persuade him that one should not be so unscrupulous in doing business, but Mr. He did not want to listen anymore. He stood up and started to see the guests off.
Helplessly, Mr. Wan had to return home. The first thing he did was to send someone to Guancheng to discuss the matter with the Ming family. Zhu Mingqing just told him not to worry, and their cooperation would not be affected in any way.
When Mr. Wan received this news, he was wondering whether it was reliable, and the He family also sent someone to urge him.
If you want to join, go to Hefu now.
Wan Gan, the eldest son of the Wan family, pondered, "Father, let me go to the He family first. They said they could make sugar, but I haven't seen them actually make it in these days!"
A word to wake up the dreamer!
Mr. Wan suddenly realized, yes, the raw material for white sugar is sugarcane, and now only the Ming family has it in the north. If they want to transport it from the south, it is not the season for sugarcane production.
What the He family can do now is to make good preparations.
If you want to truly produce white sugar, you may still have to wait!
"No need, just refuse directly!" said Mr. Wan.
Although the Wan and He families are brothers, they actually don't interact much.
If it wasn't for the sugar business, Youzhou would definitely not be able to get around the other party, and he would not cooperate with the other party.
After all, according to the information we heard before, the He family is not so particular about doing business.
When I met the Ming family this time, I thought they would restrain themselves.
I didn't expect it was just a delaying tactic.
At this time, two different voices were being heard in the He family.
Mr. He is the head of the family and has two sons. The eldest son strongly supports his father's behavior. Although the second son also supports it, the matter is of great importance after all. The investment in building the factory has already cost a lot of money.
Why not start by making sugar in small batches?
If the sugar produced later does not meet the standards, all the money invested will be wasted!
"Second brother, you're just too cautious!" Boss He laughed. "Do you think Dad dared to invest such a large sum of money without even trying out the sugar-making method? We only dared to build the factory after we were sure the method was correct!"
He Laoer really didn't know about this. After all, after they got the method of making white sugar, the He family kept it secret for fear that someone would come to steal it.
He Lao Er breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, can you let me see the sugar?"
Boss He ordered someone to bring a white porcelain jar, opened it, and asked the second brother to taste it. "How is it?"
He Lao Er smiled and raised his thumbs up: "Brother is really smart, the two hundred taels were not wasted!"
Two hundred taels is the silver required to buy off the big and small merchants.
Boss He laughed heartily: "Father has already contacted those partners in the south. In the near future, many people will flock to the capital. We must seize the opportunity!"
Whether you can become the richest man in Youzhou depends on this opportunity!
