Marin didn't take those sucrose seriously, but Angela was heartbroken-it was her sugar!
The half-ship cane sugar is almost 50 tons, which is 110,000 pounds. Marin actually wanted to give away all of them, but her housekeeper mother felt bad. So, that night, Marin was pinched by her a few green spots ...
Marin thought Angela liked sugar, so he hurried a wave of science and said that if he ate more sugar and lost his teeth, the goddess would become a toothless female monster. In addition, it is also easy to cause diabetes ...
Angela was terrified and dared not eat sugar. But Marin told her that she really wanted to eat sweets, but honey. Honey is a simple sugar, which is easily absorbed by the body like glucose, and is converted into energy without causing deposition. Therefore, even people with diabetes can eat honey appropriately. Of course, it is authentic honey. In later generations of China, because of food safety problems, honey in many supermarkets was actually pretending to be sugar. Therefore, people with diabetes are not suitable for eating, and problems will occur after eating. If it is authentic pure honey, there is no problem. Of course, you can't eat more.
However, for today's Europeans, sugar is still a rare thing. Not to mention overdose, even the nobles did not eat enough. Now in Europe, much like China before the reform and opening up, people are mostly yellow-skinned and undernourished. When you see fat meat, everyone will love to eat it, just for the fat oil ...
Even in this era of Europe, supplies were scarcer than before China's reform and opening up. At least, Chinese people in that era could buy white sugar with a ticket. Although the amount was smaller, it was much more than the European nobility in this era. Even European nobles have never seen white sugar, only brown sugar. Brown sugar is considered a premium from India.
During this period, European sugar-making technology was still very backward, and brown sugar technology was not mastered, let alone white sugar. At this time, China, Nan'an, Fujian Province, it seems that the yellow mud method has appeared to produce white sugar. In addition, there is rock sugar technology.
Therefore, the European nobles of this period had a very hard life. As a son of the Grand Duke, little Caesar couldn't help but face brown sugar, let alone ordinary people.
So, Marin tried to divide the brown sugar for some of his guards. As a result, those guards treated brown sugar like a baby. When someone was eating brown sugar, the sugar granules stuck to his fingers. He even put his finger into his mouth and sucked it like little Caesar did. Moreover, the expression on his face is very, I want to **** something like poison ...
Marin was shocked and knew the weight of sucrose in the eyes of ordinary Europeans in this era. You know, most of his guards are from the Cavaliers family, and they are still a wealthy family. The children of these wealthy families love sugar cane so much, let alone the civilians.
As a result, Marin decisively ordered the sucrose packaging to be smaller. From the previous standard of 20 pounds per bag, it was changed to a size of one pound per bag similar to the salt packaging bags of later generations. Of course, I also designed a beautiful appearance, which looks very tall.
Moreover, Marin also learned the leadership of later generations, and personally inscribed-delicious cane sugar ...
In fact, when you open the packed oil paper bag, there is only black sugar in black, which looks like the powder of Nima ...
If the girl in the later generations unpacks and sees the stuff inside, it is estimated that it will be thrown directly on the inscription of Marin's face. But now, this is high-end goods ...
When Marin met the fat grandson Jerry, the fat prime minister Jeffrey, he smiled and gave him a bag of black granulated sugar. Then, the little fat man Jerry suddenly held his arms in his arms and did not let go, and Grandpa's reprimands were not listened to, fearing that others might rob him.
If the parents of later generations see Malin's move, they might be able to teach Malin a fist-just use this junk stuff to fool my baby?
But here, Jeffrey expressed gratitude for Marin's reward. Is really grateful, not hypocritical ...
Then, this delicious sucrose quickly became a premium product on the upper level of Aurich, and it was priceless.
When I heard that Marin was going to take out 110,000 pounds of delicious cane sugar to reward the meritorious soldiers, the soldiers were very happy, but the nobles were not very happy.
However, Jeffrey told the nobles-I hope you can wait for the reward to be bought with the rewarded soldiers ... as long as the price is high, those ordinary soldiers who are suffering will definitely sell it ...
In fact, this is just the 1.0 version sold by Marin Sucrose. This kind of brown sugar is naturally the lowest sugar. When Marin sends someone to contact Daming, he can hire highly skilled sugar craftsmen from Fujian to instruct his Cuban and Grenada men to produce more advanced brown and white sugar.
Moreover, Marin had planned for a long time-in the future, brown sugar is sold to ordinary people; brown sugar is sold to small aristocrats and rich households; and white sugar is a confidential thing, belonging to high-end products, specifically used to sell To the middle and senior nobles, even the royal family, as a luxury ...
Of course, the packaging will be different. For example, an oil paper bag packed with brown sugar has the words "delicious sucrose" written on it. In addition to the brown sugar bags, in addition to the words on the bags, they will also be printed with exquisite patterns to show the difference.
As for white sugar, it is even more powerful. It is not only packed in the most exquisite oil paper bag, but also packed in a beautiful wooden box outside the oil paper bag. Then, sell him a hundred million ... Abu, it's a very high price ... at least, more than the price of pepper ...
In fact, Marin is not unaware that the white sugar made from activated carbon is better. Moreover, Marin also understands some methods of making activated carbon-that is, using 500-degree high-temperature steam to impact the charcoal on the metal mesh, and thinks that making pores causes adsorption.
However, it is troublesome to make such a device. Moreover, the cost of production is also high. In this era, the sucrose produced by the yellow mud method is already white enough to be considered a high-end product. So Marin is too lazy to get activated carbon. The most important thing is that the yellow mud method has low cost and can be mass-produced.
This kind of brown sugar can be bought for 3 shillings per pound. If you make brown sugar, the price will be higher. As for the white sugar, Marin had already planned that the price must exceed 10 shillings per pound. Moreover, it is necessary to control sales and create the illusion of "noble" to maintain high prices.
At this time, Marin also reacted-it turned out that housekeeper Angela did not distress those sucrose ~ www.novelhall.com ~ but because, those sucrose are also money! Calculated at 3 shillings per pound, the 110,000 pounds of brown sugar is worth 330,000 shillings, which is equivalent to 66,000 gold coins ...
But Marin insisted on sending the batch of brown sugar as a prize to the soldiers, why? If a gold coin is issued, no soldier will receive one or two gold coins, and there is no feeling.
However, I received one or two bags of oil and paper bags, and the brown sugar that I inscribed myself. This rarity, as a prize, is more attractive than giving money directly. This black sugar valued at 66,000 gold coins, sent down, may have an effect that is more shocking than the cash of 150,000 gold coins ...
Moreover, these black granulated sugars are produced by Marin's sugar cane plantation in Grenada. Apart from the need to provide food and clothing and clothing for those serfs, there is basically no cost. Coupled with the use of advanced agricultural technology and fertilizers, sugar cane production is quite high, resulting in lower production costs.
In fact, the production cost of 66,000 gold coins of black granulated sugar is estimated to be only five or six thousand gold coins even if the freight is included. Even if they are not given as prizes to the soldiers, they must be sold. It is better to use it as a prize and sell it directly to the soldiers. In this way, not only can we sell so much sugar at once, but also make the soldiers grateful to Dade-you see, domestic nobles have not been able to enjoy this kind of sugar, as we have, the nobles have to ask us to buy, I am proud ... …
