The first thousand three hundred and eighth chapter amazing cost
To be honest, Tina and the others were still hesitant. After all, the transport vehicle was a very unfamiliar thing to them. But in the end, out of trust in her husband, they carefully squeezed into the back seat, with the three girls shoulder to shoulder.
Shoulders.
Simon didn't hesitate at all and sat directly in the passenger seat, then looked around curiously.
After Jia Zhengjin got in the car, he was actually a little nervous.
He had already filled the car with fuel before getting in. Fortunately, he got the oil sent by the dwarves before, otherwise the car would not be able to drive.
The structure of this transport truck is slightly different from modern cars. But after careful inspection, it was found that they were similar, which made Jia Zhengjin sigh a sigh of relief.
It’s just that there is no air conditioning system. Although the temperature is currently moderate, it cannot be used for the time being. But what will happen when the weather gets hot in the future? Sitting in the car will be uncomfortable.
Why hasn't a car with air conditioning been revealed?
"Kean, can this car really move?" Tina asked worriedly from behind, "Do you want to input magic power somewhere? Do you need my help?"
"No!" Jia Zhengjin immediately shook his head, "You just have to sit tight. And Simon, buckle your seat belts!"
"Seat belt?" Simon looked confused, "What is it?"
"Yes! What is a seat belt?" Tina and the three of them also looked around themselves in confusion.
"You don't have the back seat anymore!" Jia Zhengjin quickly turned around and said, then pulled out the seat belt buckle from under his buttocks and said to Simon, "Did you see that? Like me."
"This?" Simon thought it was quite new, so he followed his example and buckled his seat belt unskilledly, "Then what?"
"Then get ready to go!" After Jia Zhengjin repeatedly confirmed that there was no problem, he finally started the engine, then shifted gears and stepped on the accelerator.
"It's moving!" As soon as the transport truck started to move forward, Christina shouted in surprise, "It's really moving?"
"There is obviously no magic power fluctuation, and there is no horse-drawn carriage..." Palin stretched out her hand to touch the window with an expressionless face, "Why?"
"Huh?" Simon was also surprised, "I really can't feel any magic power. If it is driven by magic, then I can understand it. But why can you walk without magic or any pulling force?"
"Don't you understand?" Jia Zhengjin slowly increased the speed of the car and said with a smile, "This is high technology!"
"High technology?" Everyone had a look of confusion on their faces, and they really couldn't understand this word.
"How is it? Does it feel comfortable to sit on it?" Jia Zhengjin asked proudly while driving forward.
"Much better than a carriage!" Perrin said calmly, "It's very smooth, not bumpy at all. It's like magic."
"Isn't it awesome?" Jia Zhengjin said with a smile, "A horse-drawn carriage is absolutely incomparable to it! In the future, it will definitely replace the horse-drawn carriage and become the most common means of transportation in the world!"
"Isn't it possible?" Simon thought for a moment, frowned and said, "Although your car is indeed novel, in fact, similar magic cars appeared a long time ago. At that time, humans also considered using magic cars to replace horse carriages, but later
Still nothing. Because the maintenance and operation of magic cars are very troublesome. And the cost is extremely high. Even the richest chamber of commerce does not dare to buy too many. I think your car is similar to those magic cars. I am afraid that the chamber of commerce will not
Dare to ask for..."
"Don't worry!" Jia Zhengjin said, "Although I have never seen any magic car, and I don't know how its performance compares with mine. But I am absolutely confident that such a situation will not happen."
"Really? Yours looks more complicated than a magic car, and it doesn't need magic to drive it. If you want to realize it, you will definitely need to spend a lot of money!" Simon shook his head and said, "How many gold coins will you sell for such a car?
? It can’t be lower than a magic car, right? Do you know how much a magic car costs? Five hundred thousand gold coins! Even a very wealthy chamber of commerce will consider it very carefully. Knowing why a magic car is much more convenient than a carriage,
The quantity of goods carried has also exceeded countless times, but except for the largest chambers of commerce in the world, others still choose horse-drawn carriages? It is because the cost of this car has far exceeded the value of the goods, and it takes who knows how many years to carry it.
No one is willing to do a business that makes money back or loses money!"
"Is the magic car so expensive?" Jia Zhengjin was a little surprised, "Five hundred thousand gold coins?"
"Otherwise, what do you think?" Simon said calmly, "I think yours is more complicated than a magic car, and it costs more, right? Do you really think you can sell it? No matter how good the performance is, no matter how comfortable you sit, someone has to consider buying it.
Okay. I think that with your current status, some nobles and national leaders will probably give you face. Buying a small car is fun, but it is impossible to sell more."
"That's not bad, right?" Tina said excitedly from behind, "Even if one car sells for 500,000 gold coins, selling one hundred will cost 50 million gold coins! This is enough! With Keen's current reputation, selling
One hundred cars shouldn’t be a problem!”
"I worked so hard to build the transport truck, is it just for this mere 50 million gold coins?" Jia Zhengjin shook his head.
"Fifty million gold coins is a lot!" Christina said, "Really."
"You don't understand!" Jia Zhengjin saw that the car was approaching the end of the cement road, so he started to turn the steering wheel and turned around, and said at the same time, "Do you really think the cost of this transport vehicle is very high?"
"Isn't it?" Not only Simon, but also Tina and others looked at him in confusion.
"Simon won't talk anymore," Jia Zhengjin glanced at his wives through the rearview mirror, "Aren't you guys around when I was making parts? You don't know how much stuff was consumed?"
"Uh~~" After hearing what he said, Tina and the other three looked at each other and said in unison, "I don't know! We were just here to chat."
"..." Jia Zhengjin was speechless, feeling that they were not interested in making items at all. He was also addicted to games, and making items was fun, but for his wives, it was very boring. Thinking of this, he immediately said, "My car
The cost of the transport vehicle is actually very low. It only consumes iron, copper and other ores that are available everywhere, and then rubber, strange silk and the like, which are the most common materials. Basically, the material cost of the entire vehicle is probably not much.
More than one gold coin!”
"What?!" Upon hearing this, Tina, Perrin, and Christina all widened their eyes. They stood up and reached forward, grabbing their husband's shoulders one after another. "A gold coin?"
"Hey, hey! It's dangerous!" Jia Zhengjin was startled, but luckily he didn't rush out of the road, "Sit down! Sit down quickly!"
The three of them returned to their seats, but they still had expressions of disbelief on their faces: "Mei? Are you sure? Then if this car is sold for 500,000 yuan, it is almost like a business without capital..."
"How can it be so expensive?" Jia Zhengjin shook his head and said, "If it really costs 500,000 yuan, then there is nothing we can do if we sell a hundred cars! I want to make cars popular so that more people can use them.
Buy it! Think about it, the cost is less than a gold coin. If I sell one for a thousand gold coins, then most leaders, nobles, and chambers of commerce can afford it. How many ethnic groups and countries are there in the world? 1
What does a thousand gold coins mean to them? Once we make a big purchase and accumulate a little, we will definitely earn more than 50 million gold coins! Besides, the price can be more expensive at the beginning, and the money we can earn is absolutely astronomical.
Who wants to sell only a hundred cars at a stupidly high price?" (To be continued)
