Chapter 17. Cost

Ning Yue's food processing has made such a huge profit. After discussing with Luo Yaoji, these food processing plants were roughly divided into four major groups to accelerate manufacturing and sales and create profits.

The First Group is responsible for the main production of alcohol and will continue to develop various beverages in the future.

The second group is responsible for producing instant foods, such as various instant noodles, which are the mainstays of this group.

The Third Group is responsible for producing various packaged snacks, focusing on candy, biscuits and puffed foods.

The Fourth Group was finally established and is studying various canned food manufacturing, which will become a staple food type in the future.

From then on, Luo Yaoji was mainly responsible for these food processing groups. All grain production and sales volume will be summarized in her hands, and finally handed the profit list to Ning Yue for approval.

Ning Yue started food processing like this, and then entered a stage of enjoying huge profits in food sales. With plenty of money in his hand, he even increased his investment in Qian Kunzong and attracted many talented disciples from all over the Ganzhou.

During the same period, Li Xukong gradually achieved achievements with the help of Ning Yue's secret land, especially the two strategies of reclaiming wasteland and farming and opening trade routes were successfully implemented, which made him highly praised the year-end review of Ganzhou by Xia State. Compared with the situation when Nian Qiang first came to Ganzhou, the tax was increased by at least 30%.

This made Qilin City unable to help sending envoys to praise him, but many people were full of doubts.

After all, the court officials knew that the taxes in Ganzhou in the previous year were mostly collected from the royal family of the Ganguo Kingdom, so the fiscal and taxes that the Ganguo could collect in one year were not as much as those of Li Xukong now. Such achievements made many people wonder if there was any trick to falsely report it.

After the messenger arrived, he first conducted open and secret investigations along the way, and finally proved that the various places in Ganzhou did not increase taxes, but achieved such results by encouraging farming and opening trade routes.

The envoy had evidence and immediately returned the matter. Qilin City originally praised the capable officials like Li Xukong and gave a lot of rewards.

At the banquet to welcome the envoy, Li Xukong placed Ganzhou's specialties one by one, showing the prosperity and prosperity of Ganzhou after opening up several commercial roads, which made the envoy praise again, making Li Xukong proud and drink happily.

During the banquet, the food produced in Ningyue Food Processing Workshop was also presented in large quantities. Li Xukong ate it for a long time before he found that most of the food, spiritual consciousness, wine and drinks in the entire dinner were all produced by Ningyue.

He knew that Ning Yue had been making some food-processed non-staple food products before, and they were sold through commercial channels. However, he vaguely remembered that at the beginning, Ning Yue's products were not popular, but were returned by many merchants in the prefectures and counties. So later he did not pay special attention to Ning Yue's production, but when he finally calculated the tax, he knew that Ning Yue had paid a lot of commercial taxes.

Li Xukong immediately called his servant and asked the food produced by Liangning Yue Group to send a list. While waiting, he tasted these foods one by one. He only felt that it was delicious. No wonder he could increase the tax so much.

Waiting for the list to be delivered, Li Xukong saw that almost all the non-staple food products were processed by Ning Yue's food group. Then he suddenly realized that Ning Yue's industry had grown rapidly when he was unintentionally. Compared with other merchants, Ning Yue's advantage is very strong, making other competitors completely irresistible.

In the following days, Li Xukong received the messenger seriously as usual, and finally sent the messenger away with satisfaction.

After calming down, Li Xukong sent someone to find Ning Yue, saying that the envoy had an order to him and had something to discuss with Ning Yue.

Ning Yue cooperated with Li Xukong without any worries and was invited, so he was ready to take a few guards and go there alone. Luo Yaoji was responsible for the arrangements. In the end, despite Ning Yue's opposition, he increased the guard to five hundred elite cavalry, increasing the intensity of the guard against Ning Yue.

Ning Yue tried to streamline his clothes, but this time he was opposed by everyone around him. Bai Luoluo knew that the military and political affairs of Ganzhou were now Ning Yue and Li Xukong, and he was not at all worried that Ning Yue went to Li Xukong's Qianyuan City alone.

Ning Yue was helpless, and finally agreed to the arrangements of these people. The troops stationed all the way to guard the road in the dark and rushed outside Qianyuan City the next day.

Li Xukong came out of the city, and it was not surprising that he saw the heavy cavalry behind Ning Yue. He led Ning Yue to the office hall he had separated from the outside of the palace. After briefly talking about the government affairs of Ganzhou, he invited Ning Yue into the inner hall to enter the luncheon that day.

Ning Yue happily entered the banquet, but saw that the dishes and foods brought by Li Xukong looked very familiar, including the large jar of crystal elbows, spicy chicken feet, Ning style sausages produced by his four groups, and even prepared popcorn and fries.

Seeing this, Ning Yue immediately knew that Li Xukong had any thoughts he didn't know about this invitation, and he became secretly alert.

Li Xukong looked at Ning Yue sitting upright, and a faint smile appeared in his expression, and said with a smile: "Master Bai must have eaten these delicacies. Now the sales of these foods, wine and drinks have brought merchants from all over the country to help Ganzhou. As long as they can transport these goods out of Ganzhou, there will definitely be a shortage of supply."

Ning Yue smiled awkwardly, knowing that Li Xukong said this, he already knew that these foods were all from his food processing group. This reality could not be shirked away, so he simply admitted it.

"Thank you, Lord Zhou Mu, for the praise. In recent months, several food processing groups under my command have indeed produced a lot of non-staple food products, and they are sold well in some prefectures and counties and countries around Ganzhou."

When Li Xukong saw Ning Yue admitting, his expression became more pleasant. He raised his glass to invite wine and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Bai to be involved in business. He is such a genius. I checked it carefully before. Almost most of the commercial tax collected by Ganzhou this year are food groups under Mr. Bai..."

Ning Yue held the wine glass and listened to Li Xukong's half-word words. He just turned the wine glass a few times, and did not drink the wine. He just looked at Li Xukong and wanted to hear what Li Xukong said.

Li Xukong didn't expect Ning Yue to remain silent all of a sudden, but he still looked enthusiastic and said seriously: "Master Bai also knows that Ganzhou is in trouble now, so I would like to ask if General Bai can share some of the profits from here and give them to the Daxia court..."

Li Xukong said while drawing circles the food on the table with his fingers.
