Chapter 691: Snow Sugar Trade Association

Of course, Cook will not refuse such a proposal. In fact, Cook did this to reduce the risk. Although it seems that there is no risk now, the risk of the planting industry is still very large. Droughts, storms and high winds will cause irreversible losses to the planting industry, of course, increase snow. The influence of the Sugar Association is also affirmative. After all, everyone has interests in it.
Cook's leader Merid and the principals of the other major forces can see the status of these people at this time. The higher the position, the higher the status. The last ones are just some small and medium-sized families attached to several major families.
The snow sugar factory built by Cook covers a large area and has more than 500 acres of land. No way, as long as it trades with the sea people, the factory is much smaller in terms of the huge population of the sea people
Looking at everyone who followed with huge factories and towers, and guards patrolling back and forth, they felt that Cook had made a fuss while more people were leveling the ground. Short craftsmen were laying on the compacted ground. Thick stone
"Everyone sees that this factory is only one percent of the plan. Eventually the factory will occupy tens of thousands of mu of land" Cook explained as he walked.
Everyone's eyes widened. The factory occupied by tens of thousands of acres of land would need so many people and machines. Even the heads of several big families had a twitching mouth because it was already huge on this scale.
"Does the baron need to use such a large factory?" someone asked worriedly
"Hehe, do you know how many people are in the Sea Clan" Cook asked with a smile
Everyone shook their heads. Cook put up a finger and said: "I know a sea tribe. This sea tribe has as many as two legions. Each legion of the sea tribe has one million. people"
Everyone in "One Million" has their eyes widened. You must know that a large army of 10,000 people in humans is a conventional type, but there are only three to four million people, while a tribe has at least two million regular troops. More than 100 million people
"Moreover, there are at least hundreds of tribes like this among the Sea Clan," Cook added afterwards with a smile.
"Moreover, there are countless small tribes. It is said that there are more than a billion tribes with a population of more than one billion, and there are hundreds of them. After that, no one has counted them." Cook said his answer with a smile.
Hearing this news, some people's faces are pale. Facing this kind of race, some people have retreated, and some see the business opportunities in these people.
"Hehe entered the factory building, I hope you don't walk around here, the installation is not over, please be careful." Cook warned and led a group of people into the factory
The factory building is made of stone and wood. The factory building is ten meters high and more than 20 meters wide. The walls are all piled up with stones, and the beams and roof are made of wood. The roof is made of wood and slate.
Seeing the white iron machinery glowing white in the workshop, everyone is speechless. You must know that white iron is a precious metal. A white iron weapon can be said to be exchanged for gold of the same level.
Speaking of which, you may think that it is incredible, so in exchange for a simple example. In ancient China, if a sharp sword could be sold for the same weight of gold, there might be no problem.
In ancient times, the smelting technology was not developed, and now a section of rail steel may be only a few hundred dollars, but it is a truth to change how much it was in ancient times.
In the past, the white iron required the hard work of a blacksmith to forge and wield a hammer hundreds of millions of times to forge it. Other than that, the price of the food that the dwarves ate during this period was a sky-high price. Now there are forging machines that weigh tens of tons. The effect of forging is estimated to be better than the effect of a dwarf holding a hammer and clanging for a day, and the machine does not know that the fatigue speed is increased by dozens of times.
It is necessary to know that forging requires smelting metal to a certain temperature, but the metal will cool down during forging. This time is almost unchanged. The number of times that can be forged at this time is not comparable to that of machinery. Light and calcined metals. The fuel value of
"This is the place to clean and squeeze the juice. This is the place to clarify. This is the place to evaporate water. And here..." Cook goes down the production line. It can be said that this is the prototype of the assembly line. Even the sweat on the faces of people next to tons of white iron equipment is getting more and more
Because these people have estimated the value of the equipment here, not to mention the value of the raw materials is an astronomical figure, not to mention that the people working here are all dwarves and flame giant dwarfs. You know that the salary of a dwarf in this world is very expensive. Not to mention that there is Cook's technology in it
Everyone visited the factory built with a heavy heart. Cook set up a total of ten production lines this time. The management of the production line. Cook will let the dwarves participate because dwarves are very sensitive to numbers and dwarves don’t like to manage what dwarves like to do or build
After the visit, Cook took everyone to the conference room of the Chamber of Commerce. Cook took out a scroll and handed it to everyone: "This is the total budget of the Snow Sugar Factory. You can see that every item above has a record."
Looking at this kind scroll with dozens of pages, everyone swallowed a sip of water. These are made by dwarves, of course, the land of the factory and the salaries of the participating dwarves, the salaries of the flame giants and the prices of the machinery are all recorded on it.
"You can ask me what you don't understand." Cook looked at a lot of people and their faces became pale. Obviously the final number makes these people a little unbearable.
"It took more than 600 tons of white iron to build machinery. Of course, this white iron is definitely not as good as the dwarven master forged, but it won't be much lower. So the price I calculated based on the two-thirds price of the white iron forged by the dwarven master. "Cook further explained
"Your Baron’s number is really..." Even the principals of several major families were shocked when they heard the number of 600 tons of white iron. Finally, they saw the long list of zeros in the statistics column and said with a wry smile.
"Hehe doesn't matter, even if you occupy 01% of the share, you are also a member. But if you want to have the right to vote, you have to have a share of not less than 1%." Cook said with a smile.
Because the price of machinery alone is more than 50 million gold coins. As for the salary of the flame giant and the dwarf dwarf, the salary is as high as one million gold coins, and the land and Cook’s technical input are more than 100 million gold coins. One is one million gold coins
Everyone may say that one million gold coins is not a lot. It is not a lot for the big powers, but everyone should also be aware that some big families need money. Many are not. The small and medium-sized families estimate that the entire family is not worth a million gold coins.
"Your Excellency, I decided to invest two million gold coins" someone gritted his teeth
"Hehe, don’t worry, we will sign an agreement. After the shares are signed, we can only say that our association’s internal personnel have subscribed. That is to say, if you want to sell the shares in the future, then you can’t say you sell someone outside the association." Cook laughed and took out Dozens of agreements are densely written on a stack of contract scrolls
Faced with such a contract scroll, everyone looked at it carefully. Of course, the contract scroll was without the slightest problem. In the end, the Snow Sugar Trade Association has a name member. Among them, only six people are eligible to vote, but Cook still occupies one of them.
"Hehe, if you don’t have cash in your hands, our Chamber of Commerce can lend to everyone, just need everyone to come up with reasonable collateral, and our interest is very low." Gerry, who will participate in such a big event, said with a smile.
Faced with Gerry’s words, several small families were tempted. Eventually, the membership of the association reached fifteen people, of which 11 people had voting rights. Among them, Merrif borrowed two million gold coins and finally got 2% of the shares.
Merliv actually did this by gritting his teeth because Cook had already given Merliv a reminder that he should invest as much money as he has. Now Merliv is a bit worried, but three months later Merliv’s shares have appreciated by dozens of them. More than double
Cook looked at the twenty or thirty people left and said to everyone: "Although you have not joined the Snow Sugar Trade Association, then I suggest forming a genius planting alliance under the Snow Sugar Association. Anyone who grows more than 5,000 acres of beets can join. Come to our Snow Sugar Trade Association to negotiate the purchase price of sugar beet and other matters with the planting alliance"
"I agree"
"I agree too!" The eleven voting persons of the Snow Sugar Trade Association immediately said. After all, the remaining twenty or thirty people here are vassals of these large families, so there is no objection at all.
In this way, the Snow Sugar Trade Association established the headquarters of the Snow Sugar Trade Association in the port. The first thing of the association is to bid for the procurement of materials. Because the production of snow sugar requires a lot of raw materials, filters and evaporation. Charcoal for water, etc. It’s not that Cook likes to destroy the environment, but that there are too many trees in this world to be useless at all. Moreover, this can also further develop the land resources of the Monto Empire.
In the eyes of everyone's surprise, Cook threw out the bidding law, which means that all raw materials will be used for bidding in the future. This bidding law was soon unanimously approved by the members of the trade association because it was transparent no matter who managed the snow sugar. No need to worry about any tricks in the production factory
While the bidding meeting was being prepared, the Sugarbeet Planting Alliance was also established, which is a subsidiary of the Snow Sugar Trade Association. After some discussions, the Sugar Beet Planting Alliance finally submitted its own price plan to the Snow Sugar Trade Association.
"What do you think about the purchase plan for the four copper coins a pound of sugar beets provided by this planting alliance?" Cook sat at the top and below was fifteen members of the snow sugar trade association, of which four had only the right to observe and 11 Right to vote
"I think this is a bit high. After all, the yield of beets is very high." Someone thought for a while and said
"In fact, the price is not too high. After all, some places are too far away from our place. Transportation alone requires a lot of money." Another person retorted
Merliv said: "The four copper coins are not low anymore, although some places are far away, but everyone should know that the yield of sugar beets is very high and can be harvested two seasons a year, which can reach more than ten tons, which is more than 20,000 catties and four catties. A copper coin of 10,000 kilograms is four gold coins. That is to say, the income of one mu is eight gold coins. The planting of sugar beets is not very troublesome. A person can manage several acres of sugar beets. The gross income of one mu of land is about five gold coins and 5,000 mu of land is just about five gold coins. The profit of 20,000 gold coins has reached more than 20,000 gold coins. Everyone knows that maybe the income of a middle-class aristocratic territory is only tens of thousands of gold coins a year, but that requires how much territory and how many people’s taxes.

"Let's do this. I propose that this time we will buy at four copper coins per catty. We will discuss what to do when our first snow sugar trade is over." Cook suggested with a smile.
"Okay." The rest of the people have an account in their hearts. It's like only five hundred catties per acre of corn, and five hundred catties of corn only cost 2,000 copper coins, which means that they earn 20 silver coins. There are actually five gold coins per acre for planting sugar beets. What concept is simply grabbing? It can be predicted that as soon as the price goes out, planting sugar beets will cause a huge trend.
