When the Saint comes, she does not collect food

#507 - money!

4200 tons of brown sugar might be a big problem for others, but for Horn, it's not a difficult task.

Horn's slime juice sugar extraction method is extremely simple.

Dissolve the brown sugar in limewater, pour in slime gel powder, and continuously scrape off the sugar frost to obtain white sugar.

He even calculated that a white sugar workshop with 20 people could refine nearly eight hundred pounds, which is 400 kilograms, of white sugar per day.

In a month, they could refine 10 tons of white sugar, and selling these 10 tons of white sugar at wholesale prices would bring in 1000 gold pounds.

Based on the yield of 6 pounds of white sugar refined from 10 pounds of brown sugar, such a workshop could consume 16.5 tons of brown sugar per month.

So, 4200 tons of brown sugar is just a matter for 25 workshops, and it can even provide Horn with more than five hundred jobs.

A white sugar workshop, after deducting labor costs, materials and losses, and transportation costs, can earn about 500 gold pounds per year.

25 workshops are equivalent to increasing Horn's income by 12,500 gold pounds.

After Horn explained everything, the two understood Horn's business model: grain for sugar, sugar for money, and then the three parties get what they need.

Because of the secret recipe researched by Horn, it is not difficult to produce high-quality white sugar, and the speed and output are guaranteed.

"But Lord Horn, although your idea is good, there is still a big problem." Ludwick pointed to the plate of white sugar, "The farmers and lords of Kaxia County are habitually selling to Leia merchants and the church.

They are already resistant to you, why would they sell you grain?"

Horn smiled slightly, took out a stack of documents from his arms, and handed them to Ludwick:

"We issue sugar permits based on the annual brown sugar production. As long as the grain is transported to a fixed location, you can get the corresponding amount of white sugar according to the sugar permit.

It's their own business how they sell these sugars, whether it's internal digestion or smuggling, we don't care, anyway, our wholesale price is 12 dinars."

This is to encourage the wealthy farmers and lords of Kaxia County to sell grain to the Salvation Army.

Because this kind of quality white sugar can be bought for 18 dinars after resale, they will naturally flock to it.

This will inevitably give birth to a group of sugar-grain merchants, because Kaxia County is full of individual households and does not have the ability to organize convoys to transport grain.

This group of sugar-grain merchants can form a Thousand River Valley White Sugar Trading Company together with the Salvation Army's Saint Maiden Bank.

Horn can provide them with trade channels to the Kingdom of Fran, which was what Monteyak promised to the Salvation Army.

Naturally, these locals are tied to the Salvation Army's chariot.

"By doing this, they will be willing to join the Salvation Army's camp?" Rubbing his eyes, Ludwick looked up from the paper, obviously dazzled by the plan.

"Let me ask you, if there are two gold pounds here, which one is dirty? Which one is noble?" Horn leaned back on the cushion.

At that time, no matter how much Ron Letbrough trumpets, Kaxia County will have to stand on Horn's side.

Because Horn is making money with them, and it's money they never imagined before.

Originally, the church was their source of food and clothing, and now Horn is their source of food and clothing.

The Holy Nation governs the world with filial piety. In the future, they will all be Horn's filial sons. Would they dare to put other people's memorial tablets in their homes to worship?

"I know that many of your lords and farmers are unwilling to travel far. It doesn't matter. The Megdi Chamber of Commerce will set up strongholds in various parts of Kaxia.

Lords and farmers can sell grain to the Megdi Chamber of Commerce nearby. Of course, due to losses, they will definitely earn less than if they transport it themselves."

This is the original grain merchant business branch of the Megdi Chamber of Commerce, but instead of transporting grain outwards, it has become transporting grain inwards.

In this Thousand River Valley White Sugar Trading Company, it is still more reliable to have your own people.

As for the Fran people's attitude towards large-scale white sugar transactions, Catherine guaranteed that the Fran royal family would definitely be willing.

Although the Kingdom of Fran has taken over the finances of most regions, it has not abolished the aristocracy and its privileges. The commerce and goods in many places are monopolized by the local aristocracy.

Like white sugar, it is monopolized by the nobles of the Clove Corridor. The Fran royal family will definitely not reject this windfall.

Maybe they will even help Horn dump white sugar, and even use administrative power to force the local nobles to bow their heads.

After reviewing the entire process for the two of them, they finally understood Horn's plan.

Lulusi frowned, "You two are making a lot of money, do I only have food?"

"More than that." Horn shook his hand, "You can also sell food to the Black Serpent Bay internally. Besides, I still want to import something from you."

"What?"

"Slime."

The only limitation of Horn's slime sugar extraction method is the amount of slime.

The slime from Daze Township is definitely not enough to meet the needs of the booming sugar industry.

Everyone wants to do a business that makes a steady profit without losing money. As long as the situation in Thousand River Valley stabilizes, or even if it doesn't stabilize, a lot of wealthy businessmen will come to Horn with money.

25 sugar refineries are just the beginning. When the price of white sugar drops to the point where someone loses money by starting a normal refinery, the number of sugar refineries will gradually stabilize.

Not to mention the consumption of slime juice for mortar.

In the future, there may be hundreds of workshops, or even more, and all the slime in Daze Township will not be enough to keep up.

It just so happens that slime is rampant in the Black Serpent Bay. Horn plans to open slime farms and slime workshops in the Black Serpent Bay in the future, specializing in the production of corresponding gels and slime juice.

Horn can do these things, not because he is a genius, but because of the wisdom of his predecessors.

The slime juice formula, the mortar formula, the method of making slime gel, and the orichalcum formula were all invented by predecessors.

However, due to the limitations of the times, they could not exert their full power.

And Horn's thousands of alchemist priests, who can even grow to nearly ten thousand or even tens of thousands, are the exclusive guarantee for these alchemy workshops.

Once these slime workshops are built, who will the things be sold to? Isn't it the Salvation Army?

Then Horn will become their source of food and clothing again.

At that time, even if the Black Serpent Bay wants to oppose Horn, the people below will be millions of slime breeding workers whose livelihoods depend on it, and they won't be able to cast a vote against it.

But right now, I still have to pretend.

After explaining his idea about the slime workshop, Lulusi frowned at him: "If you do this, won't you expose the recipe? Aren't you afraid... ah, I understand."

Horn smiled, even if the recipe is exposed, it doesn't matter. Where can others find so many alchemist priests? Not to mention the sharp blade of the "Labor Law" hanging over their heads.

In terms of the alchemy industry, in terms of labor level and labor scale, who can compare with Horn?

Lulusi looked at Horn's smiling face with an ambiguous expression, thought for a long time, but still didn't say it.

Anyway, he is her son-in-law, and these things from the Joan Party will eventually be handed over to them. Let's take advantage of this. Anyway, they are all family.
