Chapter 319: It's actually for the spring
Carol made an exaggerated comparison: "Adults may not know that in the past three months, we have sold a lot of four-wheeled shock-absorbing carriages, which exceeds our expectations, which is really too much." ”
"How many are there, isn't it just a four-wheeled shock-absorbing carriage, and it's normal to sell more. ”
His four-wheeled shock-absorbing carriage went smoothly and quickly, and it was very normal for nobles and wealthy merchants to like it. This kind of comfortable carriage, who doesn't want it, Chi Nan has long thought of the situation that the four-wheeled carriage replaces the original carriage.
"In three months, we have sold more than 30,000 vehicles, which is not terrible. ”
Chi Nan's eyes lit up: "That is, the average output of 10,000 carriages a month, I didn't expect our production capacity to be so high." Chi Nan's words made Carol almost choke on herself.
This lord, is the focus of attention a little out of the way? "My lord, that's not the problem. ”
"Where's that? Isn't it good to sell a lot? Isn't it just a little more, what's this?" In Chi Nan's view, 30,000 carriages are nothing at all, thinking about the earth city where cars are crowded, this is a trivial matter.
"Don't you know, my lord, that there are not so many nobles and wealthy merchants in the royal capital, that is to say, it is impossible to sell so many. In your words, it's, it's saturation, yes, that's the word. ”
Chi Nan smiled: "Haha, Carol, you can even know the word saturation, you really have a future." As he spoke, he patted Carol on the shoulder hard, making Carol even more weak.
"But so what, our four-wheeled carriages are very cheap and many people can afford them. Moreover, there is no problem for those wealthy merchants to buy and sell to other cities and provinces. ”
"My lord, you have forgotten that the carriage needs not only the carriage itself, but also the horse, which is very expensive, and is also an important strategic resource, and good horses are not something that ordinary people can buy. Therefore, it is impossible for the four-wheeled carriage to sell so much. As for the other provinces, none of them were sold during this time. ”
Now Chi Nan also found that something was wrong: "According to what you say, there is indeed a problem, you say, where did all those things go." ”
Carol lowered her voice: "The subordinates have asked Moiru to follow and investigate. It was found that many carriages had been bought by the royal family, and they secretly found others without us noticing, but in the end they were all sent to the barracks. ”
"What do they want to do, rebuild the battery with a shock-absorbing carriage, or do they want to make a combat vehicle?"
"The subordinates secretly let people see it, as if the four-wheeled carriage was dismantled after it was sent in, and they seemed to have left only the springs. ”
Chi Nan suddenly realized: "I see, it's actually for the spring." This world ...... Their smelting level is not good, and they must not be able to make springs by themselves, and it is too expensive for a magician to make them, and the output is not enough, so they simply get it from me. I actually forgot that the spring is useful. Chi Nan patted his head.
"It's too expensive to buy a carriage outright, and no matter how cheap it is, it's a luxury. Now, they should just be experimenting with springs, and they're pretty much done. ”
"Only then do they need a lot of springs, it's just that they don't work directly with me and want to sneak in, it seems, they want to steal. If you can steal the plant that makes the spring, you may not need to cooperate. Sure enough, neither the aristocracy nor the royal family could be trusted. By the way, there's nothing going on at our department store. ”
"Report to your lordship, no, there are a lot of people over there, it's too difficult to get started, and they probably think that the really important thing is at home. Carol thought for a moment before speaking.
Chi Nan still feels that this explanation is a bit far-fetched. "Anyway, strengthen the defense, there are too few people who brought the royal capital this time. "I only brought two hundred guards in total, and some of them had to follow me and fight with the other people's guards every day.
The rest had to be scattered to their own yards and department stores for defense, and there were definitely not enough people. It's good that I don't have more industries, otherwise my guards are really not enough.
However, if you want to recruit some thugs and guards in the royal capital, you have to apply to the noble council first, and you have to use the people they have cultivated, you can't recruit them privately, and the consequences of being found are very serious. Really, don't you want to be so strict?
Thinking of this, Chi Nan said: "That's it, I'll plant some ground thorn ferns at home later, there should be no problem for defense, and rat trapping grass." In addition, I will also make some big-mouthed dogs, big-mouthed dogs do not rely on their eyes to see, and they will alert you as soon as they find suspicious characters. "Chi Nan thought of the security element of his territory, dogs.
"I see, my lord, should we mobilize more people from the territory to help. There are some understaffing right now. ”
Chi Nan shook his head: "No need, there are already a lot of people, and it's not easy to explain the addition of the royal family." Also, our bald griffons can be released and placed in the backyard of the department store for defense. "There is no need for the white-headed griffon for the time being, so Chi Nan has decided to make use of this beast as well.
There are a lot of griffons in the entire royal capital, but there are even fewer that can be kept in the royal capital. The griffin is a beast of prey, even if it is not allowed to fly into the air, even if it is only on the ground.
Suddenly, Chi Nan said to Horn, "Do you have any problems with the competition in three days?" We don't know if the royal family or all the nobles are involved in this matter. If there is really their shadow behind them, then I am afraid that they will do something in the duel in three days. Chi Nan, who was originally full of confidence, hesitated a little suddenly.
"Don't worry, my lord, there will be no problem in three days. I've been training hard for the past few days, and maybe I'll be able to reach the bronze level in three days. Even if we don't, we won't lose. ”
Horn's face was determined, but Chi Nan heard another possibility: "You said you were about to reach the bronze level?" ”
"By the way, how many other potions do we have to refine the body, if we give them all to you, it's no problem. ”
Horn immediately said, "The potion that Miss Milia has prepared for us is not enough. If I was asked to use them, no one else would be of use. Horn was a little worried about the others.
"I'll ask you if you have faith. "Chi Nan also knows that the yield of the medicine is very low. Miria has never gone out because she has always been discriminated against, and she is relieved to have potions at home, but even then it is still not enough, so she can only save it.
