Chapter 268 The underestimated machine technique

Inside the Qin family's mansion.

Qin Wei and Shen Wansan were sitting in the hall with Ning Ya.

The two chatted casually, mostly Qin Wei asking about Qingling Island and Beichen Sea Area.

Ning Ya is a talkative person and is very willing to answer Qin Wei's questions.

Of course, he just didn't want to offend Qin Wei.

Because he knows that Qin Wei is now the actual controller of Fushan Port, and if he wants to do business in Fushan Port in the future, he cannot offend Qin Wei.

After some conversation, Qin Wei also learned a little about the situation in Qingling Island and Beichen Sea Area.

At the tea table, Qin Wei took a sip of wine and smiled at Shen Wansan next to him: "Let's talk."

The next thing to talk about is the business, which is the transaction and cooperation between their Qin family and Ning Ya.

Shen Wansan showed a kind smile to Ning Ya and said, "I have seen all the goods you brought, and our Qin family can eat them all."

"Really?" Neia looked at him in disbelief.

He had brought hundreds of tons of goods with a total value of millions of taels of silver. It was not that he looked down on the Qin family. The Qin family might have a lot of property, but it was absolutely impossible for them to spend millions of taels of silver at once.

"Of course!" Shen Wansan nodded affirmatively.

Naturally, the Qin family couldn't afford millions of taels of silver, but he could, because he brought 300,000 taels of gold and a million taels of silver from Dali when he came, so he could definitely eat Neia's goods.

However, he did not intend to buy Neia's goods with gold or silver. He took out a booklet from his arms, handed it to Neia, and said with a smile: "This is the goods we can provide."

Neia's expression moved slightly, and she immediately understood what Shen Wansan meant. It was nothing more than exchanging things for things, and he had no objection to this.

Then he opened the booklet and read it carefully.

The goods in front of him were not surprised. He knew the specialties of Fushan Prefecture and Beiyuan Island very well, and he also knew the Qin family's industry very well.

They were nothing more than furs, copper-iron ore, salt and other common commodities. He would purchase a batch every time he came here.

But when he saw the back, he showed a surprised look.

"What's this?"

"Great Fortune Ship!" Shen Wansan said.

Ning Ya looked at him in surprise. He naturally knew about the Great Fortune Ship because he had several Great Fortune Ships in his fleet. But why would the Qin family sell the Great Fortune Ship?

Dafu ship should be regarded as the most common ship on the sea, especially maritime merchants, they like Dafu ship the most.

Because the carrying capacity of the Daifuku ship is far greater than that of other ships, and if it can be equipped with crossbows, it can have strong combat effectiveness.

But the problem is that the Great Fortune Ship cannot be built by ordinary forces. On the surface, the Great Fortune Ship does not involve any advanced auxiliary abilities. It does not require weapon refining techniques or formations. It seems that anyone can build it.

But in fact, making a Dafu boat requires a lot of investment. First, you need to build a dock, secondly, you need a large number of craftsmen, and finally, you need to invest a lot of manpower to collect wood.

In the entire Fushan City, only the Nan family could manufacture Dafu Ships in the past, but they could only build three to five ships every year. It was not that they did not want to make more, but that they did not have enough craftsmen.

"How many ships can you sell?" Neia asked.

He needs more ships, especially big fortune ships.

Being a maritime trader is a very dangerous thing. When a fleet sails on the sea, it is often coveted and attacked by vagrants.

Once a war breaks out, there will be losses of ships. Let’s not talk about Jizhao Realm, let’s talk about innate warriors. If two innate warriors fight on a ship, it will only take a moment to completely destroy a ship, so ordinary ships are consumables.

Neia replaces three to five large ships almost every year. Fortunately, these ordinary ships are not expensive, otherwise he would have gone bankrupt long ago.

"Ten ships can be delivered within one month, fifty ships can be delivered in three months, and one hundred and twenty ships can be delivered in half a year!" Shen Wansan said with a smile.

Neia's eyes widened and she looked at him in disbelief, "So many?"

Shen Wansan smiled and did not explain.

The construction of Dafu ships mainly relies on craftsmen. As long as there are enough craftsmen, they can be manufactured in large quantities.

For many island powers, craftsmen are a scarce resource. After all, those island powers have a limited population and cannot train craftsmen in large quantities.

But for Dali, recruiting craftsmen is too easy.

Dali Chaotang can easily recruit 100,000 craftsmen, build more than a dozen shipyards, and build hundreds of warships at the same time.

Dali has a population of 50 million. If you look at the population alone, it is more than the entire Yuluo Sea area.

How big is the Yuluo Sea Area?

There are two dynasties in the Yuluo Sea area, the Luofu Dynasty and the Hundred Star Emperor. There are more than ten island forces, large and small, but the population of these many forces is not as good as that of Dali.

In terms of high-end industries, Dali may not be as good as these forces, but in terms of ordinary industries, Dali's manpower and material resources far exceed all the forces in Yuluo Sea.

In fact, selling the Dafu Ship was also Dali's helplessness.

Because Dali has nothing else to offer, the resources that Dali has are available in Qiongtian Sea Area, and the resources that Dali does not have are also available in Qiongtian Sea Area.

Dali's only advantage may be its huge population base.

"I want thirty ships, but the price is a bit expensive!" Neia said, stroking the sparse beard on her chin.

A Dafu ship was worth 50,000 taels of silver, but its cost was only 30,000 taels.

This kind of great fortune ship is the same as the warship currently equipped by Dali for the navy, except for some differences in the crossbows and machine beasts it is equipped with.

In fact, the price of 50,000 taels is not expensive here, it is a reasonable price, and Shen Wansan did not set the price randomly.

But as a businessman, Neia naturally has to bargain.

"The ship is equipped with ten large crossbows." Shen Wansan said calmly.

The price of 50,000 taels is absolutely reasonable, and even somewhat discounted, because Shen Wansan wants to use low prices to open up the market for Dali's shipbuilding industry.

These ten bed crossbows can be said to be gifts, and of course Shen Wansan would not engage in a loss-making business.

"Actually, you can take these boats to Qingling Island for sale. I believe you can get a higher price there!" Shen Wansan said again.

Neia's eyes lit up. He had not thought of this. He only wanted to buy a boat for himself, but he did not expect that he could sell it.

"Ten crossbows are too few. A ship this big should be equipped with thirty."

"A bed crossbow costs three hundred taels. There is one at the back. If you want it, let alone thirty, even one hundred, we can match it," Shen Wansan said.

Neia's expression froze, and he immediately turned to the next page.

The pupils in his eyes suddenly shrank.

"Mechanism technique!"

"That's right, the machine bird that can detect and fight in the air, the machine giant scorpion that can fight in the water, and the machine fish boat that can sail quickly on the water, as long as you need it, we will sell them." Shen Wansan's smile became even brighter. Peaceful.

If Daifuku Ship is a low-end industry, then Machine Beast is a disruptive industry.

It is not that there is no mechanism technique in this world, but there are not many forces that master the mechanism technique. This should be regarded as Dali's advantage.

But the training of mechanics is much more difficult than that of craftsmen. In the past three years, Gong Shuqiu has only trained less than a hundred real mechanics. Those who can operate the mechanics can only be regarded as mechanics apprentices.

Looking at the three types of machine beasts Shen Wansan mentioned, especially the machine giant scorpion, Neia's heart was beating fast.

"I want the giant scorpions, one hundred, no, three hundred! Just pay the price above!"

He said eagerly, without even bargaining.

Shen Wansan was slightly stunned. He seemed to have underestimated the value of the machine beast.

The Luofu Dynasty did not have a machine beast, so he had no reference when measuring prices, and could only set the selling price based on the cost price.

The cost price of a mechanical giant scorpion was thirty thousand taels of silver. At that time, he felt that the mechanical beast should have many uses, so he doubled the price.

Looking at Neia's appearance now, it is obvious that his price is still too low.

"What do you want so much for?" Shen Wansan asked curiously.

Even Qin Wei looked at Nia in surprise.

Neia calmed down instantly. He knew that he had been too eager just now and exposed his need for the giant scorpion.

But there is no use regretting now.

He hesitated for a moment and said: "You first agree to sell me three hundred giant scorpions, and I will tell you why."

Shen Wansan looked at Qin Wei, who nodded.

"Okay!" Shen Wansan said.

There are a lot of giant scorpions in the three hundred machines, enough to keep Gongshu Qi's disciples busy for more than half a year. However, it is not a loss-making business anyway, so Qin Wei naturally doesn't mind selling it.

"You can't go back on your word!" Neia said.

"Of course not!" Shen Wansan said, he still has this kind of integrity.

"It can dive!" Neia said excitedly.

Qin Wei and Shen Wansan looked confused. The giant scorpion can dive. Originally, Gong Shuqiu designed the giant scorpion to dive into the water and dig ships, so that they could destroy the enemy's ships without anyone noticing.

They knew this very well, but this should not be the reason why Neia valued the giant scorpion.

Neia chuckled and said, "There are more spiritual plants under the sea than on land!"

Qin Wei and Shen Wansan suddenly looked surprised.

Damn, they actually ignored this.

There are more spiritual plants under the sea than on land, but how to pick them by diving has become a big problem.

With innate cultivation, you can sneak underwater, but you can only sneak for about half an hour. Even a strong person in the Silent Light Realm cannot do so for more than three hours.

Three hours seems to be a long time, but in fact it is not enough. The sea is so vast, and looking for spiritual plants underwater is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

It takes a lot of time and energy to search for spiritual plants on the seabed. Even if those powerful people in the Jingzhao Realm value spiritual plants very much, they cannot soak in the sea every day.

Moreover, a person's power is limited after all. It is basically impossible for a person to find spiritual plants on the seabed unless he has great luck.

But the Mechanical Giant Scorpion can. With a little training, ordinary people can drive the Mechanical Giant Scorpion. Although the Mechanical Giant Scorpion can't sneak underwater for more than two hours at a time, as long as there are enough, it can launch a blanket search.

And there are not only spiritual plants underwater, but also many minerals, and even spiritual mines.

It is not that there are no diving tools in Qiongtian Sea Area. Large-scale magic weapons made with weapon refining techniques and formations can also be dived, but the price is not affordable to ordinary people. Those things are much more expensive than machine beasts, and they are more expensive.

Not even half a star.

As for the mechanism technique, it may not be better than Gongshuqiu.

At this time, Qin Wei realized that among the things designed by Gong Shuqiu, the giant scorpion was actually the most valuable.

No!

Gongshuqiu is the most valuable existence.

It is more valuable than other chess pieces.

Even the tyrants cannot compare with him.

Qin Wei's eyes shone brightly. The giant machine scorpion is nothing. It is just a small toy. Can Gongshu Qiu specially design a machine beast that mines underwater?

It doesn't have to be a mechanism beast. Gongshuqiu can completely create an underwater mining platform.

Technology is the primary productive force.

The uses of mechanism skills are definitely not limited to combat.

"Three hundred mechanical giant scorpions can be given to you, but it will take half a year to deliver."

Qin Wei opened his mouth and said.

"Okay!" Neia was extremely happy.

He wants to trap the giant scorpion, not that he wants to go to the bottom of the sea to find spiritual plants. This kind of thing is not something he, a small businessman, can do.

The rest was simple. Ningya ordered a large number of items from Shen Wansan, including fifty big fortune ships, three hundred mechanical giant scorpions, twenty mechanical birds, twenty mechanical fish boats, and three hundred beds.

Nu. His goods were directly paid to Shen Wansan as a deposit.

At the same time, he also spent millions of taels of silver to purchase a large amount of commercial goods.

Three days later, the money and goods transaction was completed, and Neia left Fukuyama Port in a hurry. He wanted to go back to raise money.

One of the three hundred mechanical giant crabs costs 60,000 taels of silver, which is 18 million taels. He cannot afford such a large amount of money himself, so he needs to find a few partners.

This matter is of great significance to Qin Wei and Dali.

This is equivalent to finding a way for Dali to make money in the Qiongtian Sea. The Great Fortune Ship and the Machine Beast will become Dali's flagship products in the future, and they can earn Dali a lot of wealth.

And the giant scorpion of the mechanism opened up Qin Wei's thinking. He had ignored the resources on the seabed before, and had never wanted to find spiritual plants and mine minerals on the seabed. But now after Neia's reminder, he suddenly discovered that Gongshuqiu was the only one who could

It is his greatest treasure.

Let Gong Shuqiu build the ship, which is really an injustice to his mechanical skills. How to use Gong Shuqiu's mechanical skills in the seabed is the most important thing at the moment.

Thinking of this, Qin Wei immediately arranged for people to return to Dali, and asked the court to provide Gongshu Qiu with more talent in mechanics, and asked Gongshu Qiu to train more mechanics, and asked him to start studying the problem of searching for spiritual plants on the seabed and mining on the seabed.

At the same time, Qin Wei is also planning to find more helpers for Gong Shuqiu.

Summoning the Mechanic does not consume much energy. It only cost 4,000 energy to summon Gongshu Qi.

Mohist organs, wood and stone walking, bronze openings, ask the public transport

With Gongshuqiu, how can we be without Master Ban?

In addition to Master Ban, Qin Wei remembered that there was also a trap master in "Qin Shi Mingyue", Old Uncle Lu. He was the mysterious old man who adopted Tianming and installed countless traps in his home.

Although this old man Lu's machine skills are not as good as Gong Shuqiu and Master Ban, his attainments are not low either.

As for the other mechanics in "Qin Shi Mingyue", they all seem to be minions, and Qin Wei can't think of anyone else for the time being.

But these three should be enough.

Qin Wei, who was ready to vigorously develop the Dali mechanism technique, did not hesitate and directly chose Master Transformation Class and Mr. Lu.

Master Ban consumed 4,000 Shi Qi, which was the same as Gong Shuqiu. Old Man Lu consumed 3,000 Shi Qi, which was slightly worse than Master Ban and Gong Shuqiu.

After getting two more machine masters, Qin Wei did not hesitate and sent people directly to send the two people back to Dali. In order to ensure the safety of the two people, Qin Wei first upgraded their cultivation to the ninth level.

High, but somewhat capable of self-protection, and secondly, Huang Yaoshi was asked to personally escort him.
