“Well, building this workshop is a big deal, and your uncle and I have some disagreements.
Your uncle's intention is to continue expanding the workshop by several dozen acres in Yunjia Village.
This makes management easier.
In terms of technology, it is not easy for others to steal our knowledge, after all, we are all family members in Yunjia Village.
Uncle, I think it would be better to build a new workshop in the provincial capital.
In this way, it will be much more convenient for customers to get goods in the future without having to travel hundreds of miles.
Second uncle thought, at worst, I can go to the new workshop and look after it myself, so I don’t have to worry about someone else stealing the brewing technique.”
After hearing the brothers' ideas, Chaoge looked at his two uncles with admiration in his eyes.
"Now, my uncle and second uncle have made me look at them with new eyes."
"Hey, little pigeon, stop teasing us, what do you think?
Or is there any better way?"
"I think both uncles are right, but I actually agree more with my eldest uncle's opinion."
"Why? If so, how many years will it take for us to sell the wine from our workshop throughout the Canglan Dynasty?"
Yunhe was surprised when he heard Chaoge's words.
Based on his understanding of Chaoge, he thought Chaoge would definitely agree with his opinion.
After all, the more workshops you open and the more territory you expand, the more places you can sell the wine to.
In this way, the amount of wine sold each year will only double.
"Uncle, our workshop has been open for less than a year.
First of all, we don’t need to rush to increase sales.
After all, we are not short of customers, and there are many customers lining up to wholesale our wine to sell. What we need to consider now is to increase production and control the quality.
In addition, even if we want to expand the workshop, we will not be able to move to a new place rashly where we are unfamiliar with the place. In addition to the many interpersonal relationships that need to be managed, we will not have enough people we can trust.
After we have trained more of our own people, we will consider opening other workshops based on the suitable geographical location of Canglan Dynasty.
Even if it is to be opened, it will not be opened in the provincial capital first.
Aren’t you planning to open a store in Beijing? If you really want to open one, I think it will be more effective if you focus on Beijing than in the capital.”
When the two brothers heard Chaoge say that he wanted to open a workshop in the capital, their eyes widened!
They really wanted to expand their business in the capital, but what Chaoge said just now was obviously contradictory!
In a place like the state capital, they are afraid of being bullied and losing their foothold.
But wouldn't it be even more difficult to gain a foothold in the capital city which is full of nobles?
“Little pigeon, if you are not careful in this capital, you may offend anyone at random, and we cannot afford to offend them.
What if those powerful people want to covet the wine-making technology of our workshop? What can we ordinary people do to resist them?
Although I know that my niece's husband is a general, but in the capital, everyone is either a prince or a noble, or a duke or an earl...
We did want to open up a market in Beijing before, but we only sold finished products. We never thought about opening a workshop in a place like Beijing."
"In that case, you should go and open up the market first.
Leave the rest to me.
I will be here for a few days and then immediately set off for the capital again. I probably won't be back before the New Year.
I will take care of the store matters in advance, and you can ship a batch of wine over there first.
We have some of each type of scent, and also some with different strengths. In short, all varieties are available.
Whether it can be sold or which varieties are more popular, we can only know by trying.
Judging from the current business of the workshop, the goods are in short supply. But if you want to open up business in Beijing this year, you must first speed up the production of the workshop.
In addition, the best way out for our liquor business is to develop in the north.
After all, the cold season in the north is longer than that in the south and the southwest and east regions. Our liquor is strong in nature, so it is more suitable for winter.
If we can really open up the market in the capital, the money we will earn by then will surely be several times more than we do now.
Don't worry about not being able to sell them. Just offer as much as you can.
Go directly by water, I will arrange for someone to meet you at the dock."
"Okay, okay, little pigeon, you think long-term.
Then this winter is a perfect time to open a store in Beijing.
Originally, Second Uncle, I was thinking of sending less people to the capital to find you, but I didn’t expect that you would come back in person.
Since you said so, I will ask the workshop to work harder in the next few days and try to produce more goods."
"I feel relieved knowing that you two uncles are watching over my workshop.
Are the villagers in the village still as negative as they were at the beginning? "
"How come?
With your method, even if the winnings they owe you are deducted from their wages every month, they will still be full of motivation!
Because production was increased before, these people who originally worked in two shifts are now arranged in three shifts.
Even so, there are still not enough people.
I plan to recruit some more people from several nearby villages.
Anyway, the workshop needs to be expanded, so this person will have to be hired sooner or later."
"Then you guys can handle it, uncle or uncle, but I still say that you should be more careful with the people you call back from outside.
When it comes to winemaking technology, it must be in our own hands.
There are some places that outsiders cannot touch at all.
We are the only ones who can make this wine now. If someone steals our skills, we won’t be able to sell our wine at this price.”
"Don't worry, little pigeon, we are the ones watching over it, and we also have Ji Fan and a few others who know Kung Fu here.
Now, all buyers come to our workshop to pick up the goods themselves, for fear that they will be snatched away by others. We don’t need to deliver the goods ourselves, so the managers have more than enough supplies.”
Seeing that the two brothers looked completely confident, Chaoge felt relieved.
This workshop has been open for more than half a year. Now that Chaoge is back, he naturally wants to take a look at the accounts.
When Ji Fan brought a pile of account books to Chaoge, Chaoge had a headache.
“So thick?
You want to tire me to death?
Moreover, this workshop has only been open for less than a year, and there is already such a thick stack of account books. If it had been open for several years, wouldn’t it have to build a special room to store the account books?"
Looking at Chaoge's stern expression, Ji Fan smiled innocently.
"Miss, you are joking. The accounts here include all the expenses for labor and materials when building the workshop, as well as the monthly labor expenses and accounts for purchased materials.
The rest is the sales list of each merchant, as well as the profit and loss list of the workshop in the past few months. "
"Why would I want to see these? If I were to see these, what would I do with you?
I will look at these things, but only on an occasional basis.
I have enough time today, so just leave it here for now.
Just give me the total bill next time."
