Chapter 462 Be confident

Well, it’s actually not serious enough to cut down on food and clothing ┓(`)┏ It’s just not as simple as an emperor’s home.

But even so, Ye Anlan still felt that she should think of a new way to make money for Xie Yuan.

After racking her brains for a few days, Ye Anlan finally thought of an industry that was not suitable for her to manage personally—wine making.

The wines currently on the market generally have low alcohol content and have not been distilled. Ye Anlan doesn't know how to make wine other than fruit wine, but she can distill it.

The distilled spirits, as long as the packaging and advertising are done well, the profits will definitely make every family grab the head.

There is also wine from the Western Regions, which is regarded as a treasure by the world. Ye Anlan can also brew this stuff. She has even brewed blueberry wine, bayberry wine, orange wine, hawthorn wine, lychee wine and other fruit wines by herself.

While reminiscing, she modified the drawings based on Da Qi's craftsmanship and tried. After being so busy for almost three months, the craftsman finally made a set of good quality distillation equipment for her.

In order to prevent leaks, she did not directly send the fruit wine recipe, distillation steps, and distillation equipment to the palace, but entrusted Li Jing to invite Xie Yuan to Anguo Gong's mansion.

Li Jing and Xie Yuan are both monarchs and ministers as well as friends. Xie Yuan would occasionally change his clothes when he gets bored in the palace, and take a large number of guards and guards to wander around the mansion of Duke Anguo.

In addition to An Guogong's mansion, he would occasionally go to the Elder Princess's mansion. These two are the most comfortable noble mansions he stayed in the capital, because no one in these two was trembling because of his arrival.

Although other people are jealous, it becomes a habit to be jealous.

This time he went out of the palace in micro-clothes, and it was still the same as before, without attracting any extra attention from the dignitaries.

They were already used to Xie Yuan leaving the palace every once in a while, and they were also used to him whenever he left the palace, basically wandering around the Duke An's mansion.

No one knew that Li Jing specially invited Xie Yuan out of the palace this time. And no one knew that soon they would become little leeks for Xie Yuan to harvest money.

In order to match the fruit wine and spirits prepared by Ye Anlan, the chef of Anguo Gong's mansion cooked a table full of various dishes at noon.

After the food was served, Ye Anlan had someone bring three jars of fruit wine and one jar of spirits that she made by herself to the table.

She first asked someone to pour a glass of freshly brewed wine for Xie Yuan. Xie Yuan recognized the wine from the Western Regions which was very popular in the capital when he saw the color.

He picked up the glass cup, squinted his eyes and took a sip comfortably. After drinking, he still didn't forget to complain about Ye Anlan, "I never imagined that you would spend a lot of money on food and drink."

Ye Anlan resisted the urge to roll her eyes at him, "I brewed this myself."

What happened to her thrifty housekeeping? Prove that she is a good wife!

Xie Yuan's hands trembled, suspecting that something was wrong with his ears.

Ye Anlan asked the maid to pour him a glass of red bayberry wine and a glass of mulberry wine. She had already brewed these two wines, but she had never released them to the public.

"These two are also fruit wines, just like wine, they are very suitable for children, women and scholars."

Speaking of which, Ye Anlan asked the maid to pour Xie Yuan a glass of her refined white wine, "This is the spirit I distilled, and it tastes a bit strong."

Xie Yuan had some doubts about life, "You know how to make wine, is there anything in this world that you don't know?"

Ye Anlan began to snap her fingers with a serious face, "I can't play the piano, I can't paint, I can't compose poems, I can't grow flowers, I can't make tea, I can't be popular, I can't"

"Stop, stop, stop." Xie Yuan interrupted her with a broken face, "Okay, I see, there are still many things you don't know, can this be okay?"

Isn't this girl afraid that he will catch her and squeeze her to death? Is he that kind of inhuman black-hearted boss?

Ye Anlan: Remove the "?", be confident, you are!

"I've already written a booklet on the methods of wine making and distillation, and you can take it away later. I also have someone make a set of equipment for distillation. When are you going to open a wine making workshop? Send the craftsman to help you make more."

Xie Yuan: "??? You mean, you plan to give it to me for nothing?"

Ye Anlan nodded, "I won't pay dividends this time. I have enough money. Well, it's actually not enough. Although it's not enough, I still have other ways."

She has asked people to look through ancient books to study how to make dew, essential oils, soaps, face creams, masks, and lead-free cosmetics. When these are made, she can go to the pit again, ahem, to earn money from those rich people Silver.

Then there is soap, toothpaste, toothbrush, toilet paper, and the ancient version of menstruation wings. These Ye Anlan have already sent people to various states to select sites, hire people, and build workshops.

No later than next year, she will be able to use these novelties to quickly spread her chain wholesale markets all over Daqi.

Yes, Ye Anlan still plans to only do wholesale for these daily necessities.

In order to make it affordable for more people, she not only intends to compress her own interest space, but also intends to limit the daily prices of retail stores and hawkers.

If someone does not sell according to the unified price she set, then the person in charge she sends to various places will blacklist this person, and will never cooperate with this person again.

Then there is her simple greenhouse. Ye Anlan has already had people quickly build it before winter comes.

When the weather turns cold and there are fewer vegetables, especially when the time enters the twelfth lunar month and the first lunar month, Ye Anlan's off-season vegetables can enter the market in large quantities.

Ye Anlan doesn't plan to set the price of off-season vegetables very high. First, the cost of building a simple greenhouse for her is less than one-tenth of the cost of other wealthy families' greenhouses. Second, the consumer group she originally aimed at is not just the rich. s home.

Those rich people have their own greenhouses or hot spring villages. Although they can’t eat vegetables openly in winter like spring, summer and autumn, they can still afford to eat one or two plates a day.

If she sets the price of vegetables too expensive, these rich families will definitely increase their efforts to cultivate off-season vegetables.

After all, she is quite hateful. She believes that there must be many dignitaries in this capital. She would rather eat less or spend more money, rather than doing business with her just to save three or five hundred taels┓ (`)┏

In this case, it is difficult for her to follow the path of "rare things are more expensive" for her off-season dishes.

It is precisely because she knows this point that Ye Anlan has planned from the very beginning to take the path of making small profits but quick sales.

The cost of her simple greenhouse is low. She just cuts the price of vegetables to half of the market price, and even the wealthy families can eat it every now and then, and ordinary people can buy it during the Chinese New Year. She can also earn a lot of money.
