Chapter 560 I can do better
Shen Qingqian blinked in surprise. The nearly white sugar could be sold for 800 coins per pound.
If she remembered correctly, sugarcane in this world cost eight cents per pound, and on average, fifteen pounds of sugarcane produced one pound of sugar, which meant that the cost of one pound of sugar was one hundred and twenty cents.
Oh my god, is sugar so profitable? After deducting the labor, material and transportation costs, the net profit is estimated to be 600 wen!
Shen Qingqian's eyes sparkled, and Shen Shan couldn't help but push her, "Sixth sister, do you still want to buy?"
He didn't like the shop assistant anyway. People like him who looked down on others were really annoying.
"Buy it," Shen Qingqian nodded repeatedly, "but not this defective product. Third brother, let's buy the best sugar!"
She wanted to see what the best white sugar here looked like and learn about the production techniques. If there was an opportunity, she would definitely not miss such a good way to make money.
The most important thing is that if this thing is really accomplished, then the entire Shen family and even the people in Huanxiyuan will have something to do in the future.
"Oh, you really want to buy sugar at 800 wen per pound? Aren't you afraid that you won't have enough food to eat at home after you buy it?" The shop assistant said sarcastically when he saw this.
Shen Qingqian would never get angry at such a person. She had already stepped out of the door and turned back with a smile, saying, "Whether I can afford it or not, I can make better sugar, so you don't have to worry about it."
The climate and soil in northern Hubei are very suitable for the growth of sugarcane and beets, but there are not many families growing sugarcane near Linshuigou. There are families growing sugarcane in large areas in other parts of northern Hubei, but there are no crops like sugarcane in Dajin.
"Oh my, you little girl are bragging so much that you can even make sugar. Then make one for me to see." The shop assistant didn't believe it at all.
Shen Qingqian was too lazy to waste time talking to him. When she finished her business, this grocery store would definitely be off her list of potential partners!
The guy who dares to speak to the customers like this is most likely a relative of the boss. With such a relative, the boss’s character is probably not that good.
In just a moment, Shen Qingqian crossed this store out of the cooperation list.
In fact, she was not wrong. This guy was the boss's nephew. Later, because of this incident, the boss and the guy's family almost became enemies.
Shen Shan asked someone where to buy good white sugar, and then took Shen Qingqian to a pastry shop.
That’s right, good white sugar can only be bought in pastry shops.
"Young man, I want to buy two kilograms of sugar." Shen Qingqian stood outside the counter, looked around, but did not see any trace of sugar.
The shop assistant was much friendlier. Upon hearing her words, he smiled and said, "Please wait a moment. I'll go to the back to see if there's anything left today."
Shen Qingqian was shocked. Is it so difficult to buy sugar?
Soon, the guy came out with a small bag.
"Miss, this is all we have left today. If you want more, please come back in three days." The clerk apologized, "This thing is expensive, and we don't dare to buy too much in our store every time."
Shen Qingqian thanked him repeatedly, "That's enough, thank you, little brother."
She just wanted to make a small cake and some novel pastries, and the pound of sugar she had was barely enough.
Coming out of the store, Shen Shan couldn't help but ask, "Sixth sister, do you have any new ideas?"
"Is it so obvious?" Shen Qingqian laughed.
Shen Shan also laughed, "Your face is almost written with the words 'I want to pick up money'."
Shen Qingqian: "He is indeed my biological brother. There is nothing wrong with my understanding."
