"Laurie, this is a wheelbarrow, a unique existence in the entire principality and even the entire continent. With it, even one person can easily carry two hundred kilograms of goods!" Thomas looked at the dazed man with a smile.
Laurie.
"Sir Thomas, I have a presumptuous question. Is this wheelbarrow easy to operate?" In fact, Thomas didn't need to explain. Laurie already knew the capabilities of the wheelbarrow. After all, four large baskets of salt can be placed on it.
on top.
However, the only thing he urgently wants to know now is whether the operation of this cart is difficult. After all, the design of a wheel is really unprecedented.
"I can't answer this question because I haven't tried it!" Thomas shook his head slowly, paused, and then changed the topic: "But, Laurie, you can try it yourself, so that you can know whether it is easy to operate.
."
"Thank you, Lord Thomas!" Laurie was overjoyed when he heard this and came directly to the wheelbarrow.
"Drink!" Then Laurie shouted and slowly lifted the handle of the wheelbarrow.
However, after lifting the wheelbarrow, he was surprised to find that the only moment he needed to use a lot of strength was to lift the wheelbarrow, and then with the weight of the two baskets of salt on the front of the wheelbarrow, he was able to lift the wheelbarrow.
It doesn't even take much effort, just maintain the balance of the wheelbarrow.
Laurie's eyes couldn't help but light up when he felt how effortless this little cart was.
"Laurie, maybe you can try to take a few steps forward!" At this time, Thomas's voice came again.
After hearing this, Laurie was about to try this. Without hesitation, he carefully started pushing the cart forward.
Although it was still a little awkward due to the design of the wheelbarrow, Laurie was finally convinced that as long as he could master the left and right balance of the wheelbarrow, it really wouldn't take much effort to carry the two hundred kilograms of goods.
"Sir Thomas, are you planning to sell this wheelbarrow? I don't know how much it costs!" After experiencing it for nearly two minutes, the performance of the wheelbarrow was already clear to him, and Laurie made up his mind to do it no matter what.
I need to buy one or two of these amazing little carts.
Not to mention carrying goods back from the Storm Territory, it is also very useful even if you go to the rural villages in the Black Rock Territory to sell goods.
"Laurie, this wheelbarrow costs five silver coins each!" Thomas said with a smile.
"Butler Thomas, is it so cheap?" Laurie's eyes widened. He originally thought that such a small car that can carry more than two hundred kilograms of goods costs more than ten silver coins.
After all, a carriage plus horses costs several gold coins, but the cargo loaded in a carriage is only eight or nine hundred kilograms at most.
In this comparison, this wheelbarrow is really cheap and good-quality.
"Sir Nalant said it! He asked people to make this wheelbarrow not to make money from you, but to make it easier for you to carry goods." Thomas smiled slightly and told the reason.
Of course, this statement is just an attempt by Thomas to beautify his family.
Nalant actually priced each cart at five silver coins because the cost of the wheelbarrow was not high.
As long as the carpenters are skilled in making, two people can make one in three days, and their wages are thirty copper plates a day.
As for the wood for the cart, Stormland has everything you need, so there’s no need to worry about it.
Therefore, the real cost of this cart is almost two silver coins per cart, and if it is sold for five silver coins, Narant will still have a profit of three silver coins.
Of course, this is just a cost factor.
Another consideration is that the technical content of the wheelbarrow is not high, and now that there are finished products, Narant believes that carpenters from other territories will soon start to imitate them.
Therefore, unless he deliberately wants to kill Laurie and others before the imitation car comes out, he can't make much money by setting a high price.
For one or two gold coins, Nalant felt that it was not worthwhile to ruin the reputation of himself and the Storm Territory. He also wanted to rely on these civilian caravans to bring traffic to the Storm Territory.
"Butler Thomas, I want to buy ten trolleys. I don't know if it's possible!" After hearing this, Laurie naturally said nothing more and immediately asked Thomas to buy them.
"Of course, but there are only two wheelbarrows that have been made temporarily, so if you want ten, Laurie, you can only make a reservation!"
"Can you make a reservation? Steward Thomas. I don't know how much the deposit is. I'll leave it to you now!" Laurie was not disappointed. He would only have to wait a month at most. Anyway, he would come to Stormland to purchase supplies next time.
"One silver coin for a car deposit!"
Next, Thomas directly received eight silver coins from Laurie as a deposit, and sold the other two existing cars to Laurie.
“Butler Thomas, we also want to make a reservation, but I’m not sure if it’s possible!”
Just as Thomas and Laurie completed the transaction, the leaders of the other two caravans also came to Thomas.
Originally, they left immediately after trading the goods.
But when they saw the lively scene of Laurie's caravan selling goods before, everyone stayed for a while to observe, thinking that they would bring goods to sell next time.
The appearance of the trolley just now also attracted their attention. After listening to Thomas and Laurie's conversation, they also started to think about it.
Their journey to the Storm Territory was further than that of the Black Rock Territory, and they needed this cart more than Laurie.
"Of course. How many vehicles do you need? Just book and register them directly with me!" Thomas smiled from ear to ear. It seemed that he could successfully complete the task assigned by the adults today.
…
Tulip City, Noble College.
This aristocratic college was opened by the Tulip family and is located in the aristocratic district in the east of the city. Although it is a college, it is actually more like a noble manor with a beautiful environment.
Those who can study here are all the heirs of nobles. This is where the Tulip family aims to cultivate outstanding talents for the descendants of their vassals.
"Well, it smells so good! It's Dragon Brand Jasmine Perfume! This Taffy is really rich. I heard that someone has already offered two gold coins to buy a bottle of Dragon Brand perfume. This is really crazy. You have to know its original price.
It’s just a gold coin!”
"However, it smells really good. Nasia, do you think if we also spray this perfume, will it be able to make those boys in the college fascinated?"
In a garden of the college, two girls were sitting on a stone bench reading books. At this moment, a gust of fragrant wind drifted by, and one of the girls immediately showed an envious look.
"Betty, what is the Dragon brand jasmine perfume?" Nasia was concentrating on reading the book and was not disturbed by the fragrance. At this time, she heard her companion's words and raised her head in confusion.
"Oh my God, Nasia, I'm a little doubtful whether you are a girl. You don't even know the Dragon Brand Jasmine perfume. You should read less books. You are not a lord. What are these books on how to govern the territory?
Use it!" Betty showed an expression of disbelief.
"Although I can't be a lord, my two brothers will become lords, so I plan to read more and make notes for them in the future!"
"I'm afraid you're doing it for Nalant, right? Your eldest brother is the heir to the baronet, and has been taught by your father himself, so you don't have to worry about it at all!" Betty rolled her eyes angrily.
Although Nasia is only the second daughter of a baronet, her excellence is among the best in the aristocratic academy. If it were not for lack of money, it would not be a problem to study in the aristocratic academy in the royal capital.
However, Nasia has the only flaw, that is, he always thinks about his brothers, especially the useless Narant.
Just like a few days ago, Nasia finally got a flame crystal as an academy reward, and finally gave it to Nalant.
That's the Flame Crystal!
Even if Nasia doesn't want to use it, she can sell it and exchange it for gold coins, and then buy some beautiful dresses for herself.
Betty was sure that Nasia had worn the blue dress for at least two years, because Nasia had worn this dress on the day she met her at school.
"Forget it, let's not talk about Nalant, lest you get angry again, let me tell you about Dragon Brand Jasmine Perfume!" Seeing that Nasia was showing signs of being angry, Betty immediately changed the subject.
