Chapter 45 There is also a benefit to building roads
After more than half a month of training in the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, among the 87 small chambers of commerce in the support plan of the Tongguò Small Chamber of Commerce, the remaining 63 finally chose to sign a support plan agreement with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
According to the agreement, they will receive some magic machine tools from the New Flyer Chamber of Commerce in installments for the production and processing of various parts designated by the New Flyer Chamber of Commerce, and when selling these parts to the New Flyer Association, they must sell them at the price specified by the New Flyer Association.
Although these terms seem a bit overbearing at first glance, if you calculate carefully, in fact, the conditions offered to them by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce are very reasonable.
First of all, the price specified by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce leaves enough profit margin for these sixty-three small chambers of commerce, and if you roughly calculate, each small chamber of commerce can earn at least 500 gold coins just by virtue of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's monthly parts orders.
And if the orders demanded by the new flying chamber of commerce increase, the money made by these small chambers of commerce will naturally increase.
What's more, this agreement is only valid for five years. In other words, after five years, when these small chambers of commerce sell these parts to the new flying chamber of commerce, the price will not be fixed to the price specified by the new flying chamber of commerce, but can be set freely.
As a result, less than a month has passed since the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce held a product launch conference to publicize the small chamber of commerce support plan, and there have been sixty-three small chambers of commerce specializing in the processing of magic machinery parts in Bangta City.
Unlike the factories of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, which covers an area of more than one hectare, most of the production workshops of these small chambers of commerce can only be regarded as a small workshop.
Many small chambers of commerce just rented a small warehouse, and put a few magic machine tools and equipment bought from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in it. Then a few people were hired and the production began.
Because the magic machine tool is relatively noisy when processing parts. In addition, rents in the city are expensive, so almost all of the warehouses rented by these small chambers of commerce are outside the city of Bontah.
And because the parts they produce are supplied to the new flying chamber of commerce. Therefore, these small chambers of commerce naturally chose the location near Sanchiton Manor.
Seeing that the area around Sanchiton Manor, which was originally quiet and peaceful and could be regarded as a holiday resort, was completely overwhelmed by all kinds of noisy sounds, as if it had become a large construction site, Xu Yidu couldn't help but feel a trace of regret in his heart.
Originally, he planned to relocate all the factories to the Falling Rain Valley after the development of the Falling Rain Valley was completed, and open up Sanchiton Manor into a research and design center for the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, which was specially used to undertake the design and research of various magical machinery of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
With its tranquil environment, it must be perfect for researchers to gather spirits.
But now, by mistake, the area around Sanchiton Manor has become a small industrial area.
And Xu is sure. As the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce grows, this industrial area will inevitably expand with it, and it will never return to the tranquil environment it used to be.
Thinking of this, Xu Yi couldn't help but feel a little resentful about the Amrley Chamber of Commerce.
If the road to Rainfall Valley had been repaired more quickly, Sanchiton Manor would not have been like this.
"I said President Xu, it's too unreasonable for you to blame me like this, right?" In response to Xu Yi's complaint, Moon Cruston, president of the Amrley Chamber of Commerce, shouted aggrieved. "Obviously, you are strict with the quality of the road, and our Amrley Chamber of Commerce is just following your requirements, in order to ensure the quality. Deliberately slowed down, just to keep improving. You're running around complaining about the slowness right now, and that's too much to say. ”
"I'm just talking about it, don't you care. "President Cruise was really dissatisfied. Xu Yi wiped his face, put on a smile and said: "Quality was put in the first place at that time, and everything else can be said later." This is our Lampari Kingdom. It was also the first road on the continent of Sainz. If you repair it well, your Amritri Chamber of Commerce will even leave a mark in the history of the Sainz Continent in the future. If you don't do it well, you risk leaving a permanent reputation. I am strict about quality, and it is also for the sake of your Amritri Chamber of Commerce. ”
"I know that better than you do. President Cruise replied, and his expression became solemn. "Yes, it's very important that the road is well built. Not to mention the fact that it has left a name in the history of the Sainz continent, but just in front of me, Pombéry, the president of the Filson Carriage and Horse Company, approached me some time ago and asked me how much it would cost to build the road to the Rainfall Forest. I think he probably wants to invest in building roads himself. ”
"Filson carriages?" Xu Yi was stunned, thought for a while, nodded and said: "That's right, their business is road transportation, of course, I hope that the road situation will get better, and it is not surprising to show concern about the road." However, the construction of the road is still the responsibility of the Lampali Royal Government, and it is not his turn to pay attention. ”
"The problem is that we all know that the kingdom has no money. Even if His Majesty wanted to build roads, he couldn't afford to spend that much money. President Cruise said helplessly, spreading his hands. "So the last time President Pomberg asked me how the money for the construction of this road came from, I told him that after your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce funded it completely by himself, President Pomberg didn't continue to ask. ”
"Why, were you deterred by the cost of building roads?" asked Xu Yixiao.
President Cruise glanced at Xu Yi: "Nonsense, the construction of this highway is only about fifty kilometers, and it cost you more than 100,000 gold coins from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce." If you want to connect every city in the Lampari Kingdom by road, you will have to spend tens of millions of gold coins. Which chamber of commerce do you think can come up with it?"
"If one chamber of commerce can't take it out, you can stop ten, a hundred, or even a thousand chambers of commerce from taking it out. Accumulate a lot, and this road transportation network can be established naturally. Xu Yi didn't care much about authenticity.
"It's simple. Except for your new flying chamber of commerce...... What other than what chamber of commerce would pay for the construction of roads and do such a thankless task?" President Cruise said.
"Not necessarily. Didn't you say the other day that President Morgan had approached you and wanted you to help them build a road from their Chamber of Commerce's mines to Bonta City?"
"That's different. Building a road from the mine to Bonta City will allow them to transport the ore they collect to Bonta City faster and more easily. In the end, you can save money on the road. It's the same as building this road. It's all about the benefit of your own chamber of commerce before you think of building, otherwise you would do it?"
"So to speak. The core is whether there is any benefit. And if I sue them, I won't lose money by building roads. Instead, how about making money?" Xu Yi said mysteriously.
"Make money?" President Cruise looked at Xu Yi in amazement. "What are you kidding? How does this thing make money?"
"Don't believe it?" Xu Yi smiled. "In a few days, when His Majesty the King sends someone to find you and ask your Chamber of Commerce to be responsible for building the road, you will refuse if you have the ability. ”
President Cruise stared at Xu Yi with wide eyes, and his first reaction was that Xu Yi was joking with himself.
Everyone knows the country's financial difficulties, how can it be possible to use the money to build roads?
But reason told him that Xu Yi obviously couldn't joke about this kind of thing.
Is this true?
Looking at Xu Yi's mysterious smiling face, President Cruise fell into confusion for a while.
###
As we head into July, the weather really starts to get hot.
As the temperature rises, so does the desire of people in Bonta City to buy magic fans.
It's different from just over a month ago. There are no other brands of magic fans in Bang Ta City now, and only the new flying brand magic fans remain.
Of course, at this time, even if there are other brands of magic fans, they can't take it at all under the beautiful appearance of the new flying brand magic fans.
Because of the trade-in campaign launched by the New Flying Chamber, many families who bought magic fans last year chose to take advantage of this activity after careful comparison and replaced their old magic fans at home with a new generation of new flying magic fans.
According to the statistics of the last month done by Sebas, in June. A total of 6,472 units of the new generation of new Feifei magic fans were sold, of which nearly half were sold due to trade-in activities, more than 3,000 units.
It should be said that this sales volume is undoubtedly much worse than last year, but it is also expected by everyone in the Chamber of Commerce.
After all, the magic fan is not a one-time consumable. How can you buy one and use it for a few years, and no one will change it when they are fine.
The city is just a small city with a total population of barely over 50,000, and the market is already saturated. Naturally, it is impossible to have the same hot sales as last year when the magic fan first appeared.
If it weren't for the new generation of new flying brand magic fans, the appearance is too beautiful, and at the same time, there is the support of trade-in activities. Then this year's sales are only afraid that they will be miserable.
The new flying chamber's response to this is very simple, which is to try to expand the market. Promote the products of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce to more cities in the Lampari Kingdom.
It's just that it takes time to establish a sales channel, although the new flying chamber of commerce has laid a solid foundation in Bangta City, Kalmar City and Saltan City within this year, and can easily sell its products in these three cities, but if it wants to promote it to Canberra City and Norton City further afield, and Karamay City further afield, it will take a lot of effort.
In comparison, it is easier to live in Anvimar, the capital of the Lampari Kingdom, which is farther away from Bunta City than Karamay City.
The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce agency established by the three of Victor in Anvimar City is now extremely hot, and every time it is shipped from Bonta City, all kinds of household magic machinery will be sold out in a short period of time.
While earning a lot of gold coins for the three of Victor, it also made the brand of Xinfei deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in Anvimar City.
Xu Yi even seriously considered opening a Xinfei factory outside Anweimar City, just like in Kalmar City, to produce Xinfei brand household magic machinery on the spot.
However, after hearing Xu Yi's plan, Sevigny, who came to Bonta City again on business, stared at Xu Yi and shook his head firmly: "No." (To be continued......)
