Chapter 191: Shocked Weber
The controls of Rost's car were fairly simple, but it was still a slight improvement over the previous key start, and Reich had the craftsmen design two starting points on the car.
Like the car, the key is inserted and the foot is on the accelerator, but the throttle of Rost's car is just a bridge for connecting the energy line, and there are five buttons on the car, which correspond to five completely different energy lines.
This avoids the embarrassing thing of having to use the brakes to control the speed of the car, and now the car can reach a very good speed when driving normally, and Lei Zhe does not want the car to have a car accident before it has developed.
Under Wilbur's surprised expression, the car moved slowly, and Wilbur's eyes widened, there was no carriage in front of him, and the car actually moved.
"Wow! this is amazing!" Wilbur was already a little shocked and speechless, airships can fly, after all, it is a magic instrument made by the Empire with the best craftsmen and the most outstanding magicians.
The high price is terrible.
Lei Zhe didn't speak, just silently increased the speed, this area is a rich area, relatively speaking, there are not many people loitering on the road, the stone road is relatively complete, and the car is very easy and pleasant to drive.
"This one is much more powerful than a carriage. Wilbur said from the bottom of his heart, not to mention the bumps in the carriage, and the sound of the horses' hooves hitting the ground was even more unpleasant to listen to, and it was impossible to rest in the carriage.
After walking around the wealthy area, Reich reparked the car and went to Wilbur's house, Wilbur did not choose a manor to live in like those nobles, as a merchant, of course, he had to take care of the affairs of the city at all times, but he could not leave the port of Riva.
"Lord Earl, if this car can be sold as a commodity, it will surely cause a boom in the nobility. "Wilbur has seen a business opportunity, and the price of this thing will definitely not be too cheap, although it will not be sold for the price of an airship, but it will definitely cost several carriages.
"That's what I wanted, but ordinary people can't afford this kind of thing, and it's a little inconvenient to sell it in Riva, so I haven't thought about how to sell it. Lei Zhe laughed playfully.
"Then you can join the Chamber of Commerce, we can sell this product to every part of the empire through the channel of the Chamber of Commerce, and those rich and wealthy nobles must be curious about this novelty. ”
"The actual effect of the car is also very good, I think there will be many people like it, my lord, what do you think?" Wilbur's words did not leave the meaning of letting Lei Zhe join the Chamber of Commerce.
Especially after taking a fancy to this kind of commodity, Weber wants to pull Lei Zhe into the Chamber of Commerce, they do things to try their best to make money, since Lei Zhe has such a good thing, everyone will definitely be able to make a profit.
"There's no hurry, you're looking at something else. Lei Zhe smiled, he didn't promise to join the Chamber of Commerce, but he didn't refuse either, it was obviously impossible to join the Chamber of Commerce.
But making money is still thinking about this kind of thing, Lei Zhe believes that as long as Rost's products are good enough and enough, there is no guy who can't do it, and the Wilbur in front of him will naturally be no exception, and no businessman will turn a blind eye to money.
"Anything else?" Wilbur's eyes lit up, the first car he appeared was enough for him to digest, and then there were other things, he didn't know how much money was in front of him right now.
As a top businessman, Wilbur naturally knows what those people in the empire need, what they don't need, what can make money, what can be sought after, and successful businessmen can always see business opportunities that others can't see.
"Of course, Rost can do things that are unexpected. Lei Zhe smiled mysteriously, he brought a lot of small items this time, and took out an A4 paper from the box, the pure white paper made Weber frown.
He seemed to see something familiar, but he couldn't tell if it was something he knew and had been using.
Looking at Wilbur's eyes, Lei Zhe knew that he was already interested, Lei Zhe pulled out a piece from the pile of paper under Wilbur's eyes, and a thin piece of white paper instantly made Wilbur's eyes light up, and he recognized it, and it was paper in front of him.
But it was completely different from the yellow, rough paper they used, this one looked smooth and white, even brighter than his orb, which made him swallow, I am afraid that the king would not need such high-end paper.
"Have you guessed what this is?" Lei Zhe looked at Wilbur jokingly, and he knew that this guy had guessed something by looking at him, but Lei Zhe still didn't reveal the answer.
"Lord Earl, this should be paper, but unlike the paper we use, this one looks soft and white, and the glossy surface is more delicate, which should be very convenient for writing and engraving. ”
"Yes, this is paper, it seems that your vision is not bad, you can feel this paper for yourself. ”
Weber nodded and carefully took the paper in Lei Zhe's hand, seeing his cautious appearance, Lei Zhe wanted to laugh, when A4 paper can make people so precious.
Of course, he could not laugh at the knowledge of his predecessors in the eyes of future generations.
Carefully touching the paper in his hand, Wilbur's eyes became more and more shocked, this papermaking technology completely crushed the modern, although paper is a daily item in life.
However, it has a great effect on the current library records, and the paper used by the magicians is already the highest grade paper now, but the retention period is not as long as imagined.
The paper will turn yellow with time, and the words of magic will pass slowly due to the passage of time, and the more time passes, the mark of magic will gradually disappear, and the empire will spend a lot of money every year to buy paper to correct the magic books in the treasury.
This is very important to the empire, magic is the product of the ancestors who left behind to protect the country, if he can recommend this kind of paper directly to the king, it will bring him more than just wealth.
He will rise in rank before the king, and he will not be a nameless clan that he can't remember.
"How's it going, Wilbur?"
"This kind of thing, Lord Earl, is very important, and it surprises me very much. Wilbur said from the bottom of his heart that he had already come up with the idea of taking down this method of paper making.
"If I can, I, Wilbur, really want you to join the Sebanian Chamber of Commerce, and you can rest assured that as long as you join the Chamber of Commerce, I will use the power of the Chamber of Commerce to bring you wealth. ”
