249.Technology Changes Lives (Twilight League +4)
However, the problem with the final warehouse is that these tools are not covered, and most of them are exposed. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
Therefore, Li Du could not pick up the leaks.
The auctioneer also knew that it was worth a lot, and the starting price was 1,000 yuan.
Li Du shouted 1,500 yuan, and then the price of the warehouse quickly soared to 3,000 yuan, and when he saw this, he shook his head and withdrew from the bidding ranks.
In the end, the transaction price of the warehouse was 4,500 yuan, and he felt that it was not profitable, and everything in the warehouse could be sold for 5,000 yuan if it was properly operated, which had to be combined with labor costs.
The auction is over, and the warehouse is cleaned up.
The weather was hot, Li Du hesitated for a moment and said, "Wait until the sun goes down to clean up." β
There is no air conditioning in the warehouse, and they drink cold mineral water or cold beer to cool down during the auction.
Godzilla is very hard-working and says, "It's okay, I'll do it!" β
Li Du patted him on the shoulder-patting his sweat on his hands: "Listen to the boss, there are not many things in this warehouse, you can clean it up in two hours at most, and work with the lights on at night!" β
Godzilla nodded vigorously: "I listen to the boss!" β
Hans said, "Cool, Lee, you're very good at buying people's hearts. β
Li Du pointed at him and said, "You better think about how to be a son-in-law, you are so powerful, you got a daughter-in-law by participating in the auction." β
Hans was deflated, and in the distance, an Infiniti was waiting there, and Avril's parents were watching Hans from afar.
The eyes of the two are extremely eager, and Li Du, a rookie in the love field, can feel it, that is, the eyes of the mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law.
As they were about to leave, Hans was intercepted.
He looked at Li Du with a pleading gaze, Li Du patted him on the shoulder, and then said to the parents: "My brother is a traditional Christian, and he is shy about private matters, so if you want to say anything, you have to be honest." β
Hans almost didn't scold!
In the evening, when the sun set and the weather finally cooled, Li Du brought Godzilla to work.
After they opened the warehouse, Hans returned, looking exhausted.
Seeing his vague and weak steps, Li Du was shocked: "Shit, you won't do anything, right?" It's moving too fast! β
"Get out!" Hans scolded, "How can I make a brother like you? Damn, I was killed by you! β
Li Du said: "You have to thank me, Boss Fu, you are of the age of marriage!" β
"Lao Tzu will never get married in this life!" Hans said in a firm tone.
The two are bickering, and Godzilla is working hard to pack up the goods one by one.
After the shelves were cleaned up, the vending machines inside showed their faces.
Seeing the two quaint vending machines, Hans's eyes lit up and he said, "Hey, man, get me the vending machines first!" β
Li Du asked with interest, "Is this thing valuable?" β
Hans nodded, "If it's an old-fashioned leveraged vending machine, it's valuable, and if it's just an ordinary vending machine, it can sell for some money." β
Li Du asked, "Do you have any research on this thing?" β
Hans watched Godzilla carry the machine out and said casually, "Of course, for example, I know when the world's first vending machine was born. β
"When?"
"Two thousand years ago, how was it, wasn't it amazing? It appears in a temple in Alexandria and is a device used to sell holy water. β
This answer surprised Li Du: "It has been born for so long? You're, aren't you? β
Hans gave him a middle finger: "Don't question Boss Fu, Boss Fu is an expert in this industry. At that time, the church designed a machine using the principle of levers, and put ancient Egyptian coins to tilt the inner container and make the faucet come out of holy water. β
Li Du sighed: "It turns out that holy water can still be bought and sold? β
"Of course, religious believers are good businessmen," says Hans. Godzilla, bring the machine to me, I'll take a look. β
The big red vending machine was carried over, and Hans immediately knocked on it, and then began to remove the back cover with a wrench.
Li Du helped him open the back cover of the machine, and then some complicated accessories and wiring appeared in front of him.
Hans scanned the nameplate inside with a flashlight and nodded, "Very good, this vending machine is worth some money, it is a modern thing." β
After a moment's hesitation, he said, "I guess this thing can be sold for two thousand five hundred yuan." β
Li Du smiled: "Wow, it seems that we have found a treasure, this thing is quite valuable." β
Hans said, "Of course, this thing will cost at least four thousand dollars!" β
Li Du didn't know anything about it, so he shrugged his shoulders and said, "I thought I could buy it for four hundred yuan." β
Hearing this, Hans burst out laughing and said, "You are naΓ―ve, my good fellow, do you think that the vending machine is just a big cabinet?" You put in the coins and then you put in Coca-Cola? β
Li Du said: "Isn't it? β
"Don't be stupid, it's a high-tech thing, like you look at its refrigeration system, which is computer-controlled and only freezes drinks according to consumer demand," Hans said. β
"In other words, the vending machine only freezes the drinks that can be sold, not all the food and beverages like a refrigerator, and the computer inside it can decide how much to freeze based on the sales volume."
"Also, the model of this vending machine is Peak-Shift, do you know how much power it consumes? Less than half the size of an electric fan! β
Li Du was stunned by this data: "It's incredible, this thing consumes so little power?" β
"The advantage of Peak-Shift is that it uses less power, it can avoid the peak power consumption during the day, freeze the Coke at night, and keep the drink cold without using too much electricity." Hans explained.
The warehousing and auction industry needs to continue to learn and increase knowledge, so Li Du opened his mobile phone to search for relevant information to save him from missing these things in the future.
Today his target is not the two vending machines, but the Coke bottles that attract the little flying insects inside.
If there were only two machines, he would not participate in the auction, so he would naturally miss the opportunity to make money.
The cost of 500 yuan, now look at the guarantee to get 5,000 yuan, even if he is worth tens of millions, he is not willing to miss such a good opportunity to make money.
According to the data, the current vending machines are very energy-efficient, because in 1991, the vending machine industry association spent a lot of money to develop a device to reduce electricity consumption.
These devices have been continuously upgraded to reduce power consumption, and in the past 20 years, we have managed to reduce annual electricity consumption by about 70% while increasing the use of vending machines by 100%.
Coca-Cola has its own vending machine production plant, and they produce more high-tech machines.
The Peak-Shift vending machine they found is Coca-Cola's most widely used category today, and its advantage, as Hans says, is that it saves electricity.
The top of the machine is a solar panel, which is used to generate electricity, which is stored during the day and used for lighting at night.
In addition, the vending machine uses LED lighting and sensors to illuminate only when people are near.
