It is because the market cannot be monopolized all the time, so Duke needs to seize it faster. ◢ With the strategy of matching *dream◢ small *.lā high and low, the people on the Europa continent are accustomed to the storm carriage, and it will be difficult for other empires to challenge the status of the storm carriage after it is built.

"By the way, Martin, choose some fine wood, build some special storm carriages, and then install fireplaces in them, and even install glass windows, and then sew soft animal skins on the seats, and finally see if there are any jewels on the side of the Sea Clan, and these ornaments are used on this kind of carriage. ”

"My lord, is this the carriage you want to use?"

Martin asked puzzledly, Duke used to ride in the most ordinary Storm Carriage when he was in Storm Castle, and it stands to reason that he should have his own luxury carriage.

"I am reluctant to use such a good carriage, and all the military and political personnel of Stormfort cannot use these luxury carriages at the moment. Didn't we say before that we want to build low-end carriages to seize the market, then we also want to build the most top-notch luxury carriages to seize the market of those who have money, and this kind of carriage is built for them. ”

"By the way, the name should also be different from the Storm Type 1 carriage, this kind of carriage is named Storm Elite Type 1, so that people who use this kind of carriage can enjoy the same elite treatment, if there is a royal or top lord custom, we can also call it Storm Lord Type 1, Storm Royal Type 1. You have to understand that these rich people just like to be different, so we have to meet their needs!"

After Duke said this, a sinister smile appeared on his face, knowing that the really profitable things are always luxury goods used by some rich people. There will be all kinds of luxury cars in the future, so why can't you create luxury cars in this world and seize this high-end luxury market?

Hearing Duke say this, Martin was naturally not stupid, and he instantly understood the high interests behind this kind of carriage.

"I see, my lord, I've made the Elite Type 1 carriage extravagant!"

"Well, that's good!" Duke nodded with satisfaction, it seemed that it was a good choice to make Martin the director of the Storm Carriage, and he had a strong comprehension ability.

"By the way, the price of this kind of carriage starts at 1,000 gold coins, and if there is a custom requirement, then the price will be increased according to the demand. ”

Duke instantly told the price, if this kind of carriage was made, the cost of supporting death would be hundreds of gold coins more expensive than ordinary storm carriages. However, in terms of price, it can be directly increased by five times. And Duke decided that a thousand gold coins can only start with the basic elite type, and if you want to add luxury decorations, then it will be more expensive.

At the same time, in terms of maintenance price, it is also necessary to show the difference, which is the same as the luxury cars in later generations are expensive to death, and these after-sales services are also a big head. It's the rich who buy it anyway, so why not make a little more?

Martin had taken everything Duke had said to himself, and once he had met the needs of Stormcastle and the Storm Firm, he would begin building the Elite Carriage.

At the same time, Duke also calculated that as long as he survived this month, the future Stormcastle carriage should reach the scale of 1,500 according to the calculation of three shifts. Even if it doesn't expand, at the price of two hundred gold coins, this is a sales volume of up to 300,000 gold coins.

Tithes, taxes levied in other territories, and various costs are deducted. If he finds a way to evade a little more taxes, Duke will have a way to get a net profit of 200,000 gold coins a month.

This is basically an astronomical amount for a small territory like Storm Castle, and with the investment of the Storm Carriage, the Storm Merchant House can also expand to other empires, and the monthly net profit in the next year or two can also reach about 150,000, as long as it develops steadily, and then record the messy income such as iron tools, the income of Storm Castle will be completely lifted out of poverty after a year.

Of course, this is only the perfect plan, and even if the Storm Carriage reaches 1,500 units per month, it will not be possible to sell them all, at least in the next few months. After all, the Storm Army and the Storm Merchant Company also have a very large demand for the Storm Carriage. In addition, in the territory of Storm Castle, it is impossible for Duke to sell it at such a sky-high price, so he can only discount it according to the market price of one hundred gold coins.

Therefore, Duke's real financial income should be added up in the next few months, and on average, it will be a net income of 200,000 gold coins. After all, the transportation speed and cost of the Winter Storm Merchant will be greatly reduced, and the expenses of the Storm Castle will be greatly increased.

Finally, one of the biggest problems of Stormcastle's income was solved, and Duke was completely relieved this time. At the same time, with the Storm Wagon coming offline, the time has entered the end of November, and the entire Seine River has been frozen over, and the difficult winter period of Storm Castle is just approaching.

But this year's Storm Castle, it is impossible for all of them to be nested in the Storm Castle, first, there are too many people and not enough area, and second, it is impossible for Storm Castle to stop production, after all, Duke, the lord, really has no surplus food.

Therefore, Duke ordered that in addition to the peasants on both sides of the Seine River entering the Storm Castle for refuge, the mines, hydroelectric factories, storm wagon factories, storm fortresses and other construction sites or factories must be in the normal start stage to ensure the output of the storm fort.

Because according to the news detected by the Sea Clan soldiers, the Wild Shark Tribe also reacted at this time, and even began to try to reach a reconciliation with the Sea Giant Tribe, and then concentrated its forces to completely annihilate the Wave Tribe, which is now the Storm Fort Fishman Clan.

The Shark Tribe was able to reconcile because the Sea Giant Tribe had received the benefits of thousands of armor sets, and even a large amount of ore and coal, which allowed the Sea Gnomes to help them craft weapons. Duke knew even if he thought about it with his ass that the Shark Tribe would definitely not be able to pay for this kind of settlement, and it should be his second brother Tok who stabbed him again.

Therefore, the Sea Clan Fortress cannot be stopped, otherwise in this winter snow scene, the Storm Army has no way to support the Wave Sea Clan, so they can only hurry up and build the fortress.

In addition to the fact that the Sea Clan Fortress was not completed, there was also the fact that the number of houses in Storm New City was in a serious state of inadequacy due to the increase in population so much. At least 50,000 people are still living in simple shacks, so the coal used for heating is also essential, otherwise I don't know how many people will freeze to death this winter, and the natural mine will not be able to stop.

Needless to say, Stormcastle relies on hydroelectric factories and carriage factories to make money. In order to ensure the smooth development of these construction and production operations, Duke made up his mind at this time that he could not passively defend against the ice demon, but must take the initiative to attack!
