Mediterranean Hegemony Road

In 1881, a year of development, the citizens and material life of Vienna became rich and colorful. Ferdinand's brain hole is wide open, and he is also going further and further on the road of profiteers. All kinds of routines make people overwhelmed.

Shuanghui Food Group has more and more products, such as a wide variety of noodles, biscuits with many brands, and french fries with different flavors.

Bakers have also officially entered the supermarket, and all kinds of cakes have also appeared in succession, which has attracted the attention of the citizens of Vienna, which has greatly facilitated people's lives.

Of course, it also enriched Ferdinand's pockets. Volvo has gone to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and its footprints have spread all over every big city.

Of course, Shuanghui Food Group, along with the supermarket, has become more and more worthy of its name from a leather bag company, and has become a large company in the field of food processing in the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

As Christmas is approaching, Volvo has become even busier. Under Ferdinand's encouragement, Ferranz was in a daze and made preparations for the Christmas event.

Unable to relax Ferdinand, there are already several supermarkets in Vienna, and they are starting to renovate, and the style is basically copied from Volvo.

There are also unconventional ones, but they are automatically ignored by Ferdinand. If you don't understand anything, just go for innovation, and if you are full of death attributes, it will not pose a threat at all.

As you can imagine, in Vienna in 1882, a large group of supermarkets must have popped up. The era of Ferdinand's monopoly is coming to an end, and the contention of a hundred schools of thought is coming.

Ferdinand estimates that in the next three to five years, it will be the golden age of supermarkets, and competitors are still in the learning and groping stage; in five to ten years, they will gradually transition to the silver stage, competitors will increase, and profits will begin to thin.

However, Volvo's dominance has been determined, and it is difficult for a rising star to challenge in the short term. Ten years later, its supporting industries will be perfected, and then it will have a complete industrial chain, which can maximize benefits.

Taking stock of the harvest in 1881, Volvo opened its doors on June 18 and opened 36 new stores in nearly half a year, slightly exceeding the plan.

At the same time, it contributed 30,000 pounds of net profit to Ferdinand, and the profit was mainly spent on opening new stores. The average monthly profit of each supermarket is still around 800 pounds, which is terrifying and is Ferdinand's biggest income now.

Shuanghui Food Group Co., Ltd. has also performed very well. After the reorganization of the flour processing plant, thanks to the rapid expansion of sales channels, the monthly profit has increased from 300 pounds per month to the current monthly profit of 1,000 pounds.

The newly established noodle factory has average sales. Although Ferdinand has come up with many brands, Europeans are not used to using chopsticks, so the pasta sells well.

At the beginning, there was a slight loss, and now the profit is only around a hundred pounds a month, much to Ferdinand's disappointment.

Fortunately, this is only a small factory with a dozen or so people, and it has not expanded its scale blindly, otherwise it will not be profitable now.

The benefits of the snack processing factory are good, such as popcorn, French fries, and various biscuits, all of which are selling well.

Since its establishment, the snack processing factory has expanded twice and now has more than 800 employees. In Ferdinand's industry scale, second only to Volvo. Profits are now as high as £8,000 a month, and there is still a lot of room for improvement.

Throughout 1881, Ferdinand created an industry worth hundreds of thousands of pounds, but he only added less than 10,000 pounds of cash in his pocket.

Christmas is here, there is a beautiful Christmas tree in front of Volvo's door, and a dazzling array of food is displayed on the counter.

Wearing a red pointed round hat, a red robe, and a white man holding a gift bag, Santa Claus waved to people and gave bags of food to passing children.

Supermarkets have also opened festival discounts, and a wide variety of products are marked with discounted prices, attracting the passing crowd.

This is completely Ferdinand~ According to the later Austrian Christmas,

arranged. It seems to be working very well, many items are sold out, and the supermarket is left with rows of empty shelves and tired salespeople.

Christmas is the most important festival in the West, and the Ferdinand family was no exception. They were invited to Schönbrunn Palace and had a Christmas dinner with a group of relatives in Vienna.

Afterwards, the family sang and danced under the Christmas tree and gave each other Christmas gifts. The whole scene was full of warm atmosphere.

The bell rang at midnight, Ferdinand and others all stood up, lit candles, recited the Bible in unison, blessed each other, and then sang the Christmas song, the first Christmas song that spread all over the world It originated in Oberndorf, Salzburg, Austria.

After singing the Christmas carol, Ferdinand left Schönbrunn Palace and went to the Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna to say mass.

At this time, there was a tall Christmas tree in the church, and a shining star on the tree pointed to the way of the "Three Kings of the East" Casper, Badassar, and Merxiu to Bethlehem.

The streets and alleys of Vienna are now full of children, singing Christmas songs and going from house to house to report good news.

Aristocrats and capitalists are also rare and generous, all workers are on holiday, and many people can still receive Christmas gifts.

At least those who work for Ferdinand have received a Christmas present, some self-produced snacks, and some unsalable products. In any case, what the Ferdinand factory produces is food, which is a valuable gift to the destitute workers.

If it wasn't for the timely reminder from Butler Carl, Ferdinand would have almost handed out a year-end bonus. Fortunately, he reacted in time, knowing that in those days, raising the wages of workers without authorization would be hostile to the capitalists.

After a lively Christmas, Ferdinand was called up by Princess Clementine the next morning.

Sleeping late was a bad habit developed by Ferdinand in his previous life, but Princess Clementine hated it, she thought it would kill a person's will.

Ferdinand resisted several times to no avail, but in the end he was obedient and obedient. He thought that Christmas could be an exception, but the reality told him not to.

Morning exercise is also a tradition of the Kohari family, and the life of the military nobles is not as easy as the legend.

Drunken fans, with very few exceptions. Most German aristocrats follow traditions and are strictly required since childhood. They have to learn much more knowledge than ordinary people, and there is almost no good childhood.

Vienna's aristocracy began to decay, but most of them were upstarts from the new aristocracy. The great nobles with real heritage have strict requirements for their descendants, which are beyond ordinary people's imagination.
