Roland thought for a while before remembering that the United Chamber of Commerce was a cooperative supply and marketing organization under his leadership, and its main members were wealthy merchants from several large islands in the Fjord.
Although the negotiations last fall reached a basic consensus, the Chaos drink produced by Evelyn was far from reaching a share that could be sold in bulk, so each chamber of commerce only brought back a few bottles of samples and did not start to be officially sold. This time they should have come for this matter.
As the winter offensive and desert action plan and the entire western border were preparing for the reunification of the kingdom, he threw the matter of the United Chamber of Commerce behind his mind.
Now the other party takes the initiative to come up, which saves him a lot of effort.
Take them to the living room, and I will arrive later, Roland ordered.
After Barov knew no more, he turned to the Nightingale and informed Tilly and Wendy, so that they could also come to the castle. This was the first business carried out by the Witch Alliance and Sleeping Island in cooperation.
Walking into the living room, several businessmen immediately stood up and bowed to him.
Except for old acquaintances Margaret, Gamore and Marlan of the Firm Moon Bay Chamber of Commerce, Roland recalled the names of the other people, and they remembered them, namely Nibelon of the Firm Water Chamber of Commerce and Etiya of the Sunset Island Chamber of Commerce.
As soon as he sat down, Nibelon couldn't wait to speak, Your Majesty, the sample I brought back last time caused a great sensation among the merchants on the island. Anyone who tasted it would not praise its novelty.I bet that as long as it starts selling, Chaos Beverage will definitely become the most successful product in Fjord's history!
And it is not just a drink to drink, Etiye echoes. For example, the bottle of hot red spicy juice does not quench thirst when drunk, but it is particularly delicious when poured on steamed fish or barbecue. It can also be used to drive away cold and refresh the spirit, and the effect is more effective than your white wine. At least the latter will easily become dizzy if you drink too much and cannot be enjoyed while on the boat, while the former has no problem at all!
Indeed, Margaret nodded with a smile. Not only those merchants, but even many explorers noticed Chaos Drink.After all, drinks that can drive away the cold and keep warm but have no side effects may save their lives when they encounter a shipwreck.
Therefore, I suggest dividing different Chaos drinks into different prices. Etiye continued, products like this with special effects can be sold at a higher price with a little publicity, not to mention that they drink one bottle less.
This is obviously used as a functional drink. Roland looked at him with praise. Sure enough, merchants who can grow in the fjord all have good marketing vision. Through a small number of samples, he realized that this is actually a variety of products with obvious differences.
For such products, pricing separately for characteristics is the best way to squeeze its value.
Since the response is so good, we can make the next sale according to the contract we signed before. Roland said, "No matter whether it is the order amount or the sales ratio of the district, you should have no objection to these."However, you need to pay 30% of the payment in advance for picking up the goods. You should have brought enough Golden Dragon, right?
Since the main terms of the United Chamber of Commerce were negotiated before the New Year, there were not many details to be discussed in detail.
The purpose of his invitation to Tilly here was mainly to witness this result, to show that he had not tampered with the amount of money.
After all, the other party not only agreed to stay in Wudong City in the future, but also promised to move the witches on the sleeping island to the Western Region in batches, and he had to show his sincerity.
According to the win-win bet of Evil Moon Time, 30% of the advance payment or final sales amount will be a reward fund, which is shared by the City Hall, the Witch Alliance and the Maleficent Curse.
Of course, Your Majesty, Nibelon grinned. This time, I didn’t even have a box of goods on my boat. Except for the craftsmen and sailors, the rest were Huang Cancan’s coins.
Then let's check the goods now, Roland smiled.
……
The beverage factory specially built for Evelyn is located opposite the alcohol factory, but it is more like a well-defended warehouse than a factory building.
It covers a small area, with a first floor of only more than 100 square meters. It is a brick-concrete structure with no windows on all sides. The only entrance and exit is a thick iron door. Outside the door, there are new recruits from the First Army responsible for guarding, looking like a military important place.
Roland led the merchants through the courtyard gate, walked into the flat house, and walked along the stairs into the basement. Everyone's vision instantly widened a lot.
I saw that the area underground was about three or four times larger than that on the ground, and rows of wooden frames were neatly arranged, like a wine cellar in a manor.
In order to avoid irreparable losses caused by fires, open flames are not allowed here, nor wires are connected. Instead, patio lighting is used to provide lighting, so it still looks a little dim.
Each row of wooden racks is filled with two layers of wooden barrels, and of course not every bucket contains Chaos drinks.
Evelyn can only change the amount of one barrel a day, and so far there are only more than a hundred barrels. In addition, the shares that Roland has taken away and distributed to members of the Witch Alliance every month have to be reduced.
Roland knocked on the barrel, and a dull sound suddenly came from inside. Twenty barrels of Chaos drinks a month can be provided here. On average, it would be five barrels per chamber of commerce.No matter how long it takes for you to sell it, as long as the output does not change, it will be the same, so it will be the same when it comes to every three months or once every six months.The total number of drinks you can pick up in this trip was 100 barrels, all on the first row of wooden racks. If there is no problem with the inspection, I will send someone to the dock area.
Don't you let us try the taste?Gamore said in surprise.
This is not wine, the more fragrant it becomes.Roland shrugged. Some Chaos drinks can indeed be stored for a long time, but it does not mean that every one is like this. Therefore, after brewing, the first thing to do is to sterilize and seal it.
Destroy... sterilize?
They are as healthy as food. The hotter the weather, the faster it gets worse. Sterilization can inhibit this process. As for how to do it, you don’t need to know. As long as you know, the drinks inside cannot be maintained at the best taste once the barrel is opened.He spread his hands and said, "You can choose to sell it as soon as possible, or resave it as long as it is placed in a cool and light place. It will be fine within one or two months."
But... As Etiye said, Chaos Beverage is different in every batch, and there will always be some that sell better than other flavors. How can we choose?Gamore hesitated, can you order people to divide each barrel into four equal parts and then seal it?In this way, everyone doesn’t have to worry about choosing which bucket.
Then the tasks of Soloya and Lily would have to be several times higher. Roland thought to himself that for such things that occupy industrial production resources, it is naturally easy to do whatever it takes.
Sterile storage is not an easy task, and after being divided into four parts, the small and complicated stock in each chamber of commerce is also unfavorable to sales.As for the taste... he paused. The demand for alcohol in the North and West borders was completely different in the Gray Castle alone. The unpopular taste here may be very popular in another city. This should be clear to you who often transport goods back.
Uh, this... Gamore was speechless for a moment.
It is impossible to let you taste the taste first, otherwise it will be troublesome just to allocate and coordinate the supply of goods. Moreover, the contract is priced in buckets and there is no mandatory requirement for the quantity of goods purchased. If the taste of the audience is temporarily lacking, then wouldn't Wu Dongcheng lose money?
Roland curled his lips secretly, after all, for Evelyn, the magic he puts in every barrel is the same.
In short, taste is not the point, but the sales method to fully develop each taste to find the right buyer, which is what you should do.Roland patted the barrel, come and pick out the Chaos drink you like.
