Chapter 49: Making Money "Too Slow"
Looking at He Wei with a smug face, Miss Bihe's gaze gradually became a little confused. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Before she knew it, the man had saved her twice. And every time the situation is critical, he is always so light-hearted. makes people feel that the two heroes saved the beauty were just a gesture for him.
If you can live with such a person, you will definitely live a very secure and down-to-earth life. Miss Bihe thought silently.
And the jumping beads on the side finally woke up from the shock at this time. "The revitalization of the He family is hopeful!" This is the only thought of jumping beads at this time!
Xiao Ci bit her lip and asked hesitantly, "Young Master He, how much does your steam engine cost?"
"The cost?...... I really didn't pay attention. He Wei said blankly.
"I've calculated, counting the cost of work, it will take about 30 spirit stones. Tie Tuo said.
"30 spirit stones! so expensive!" He Wei was taken aback, and he was so distressed that he almost didn't pounce on Tie Tuo's neck. And Xiao Porcelain inexplicably showed a very disappointed expression.
You must know that He worries about selling the hot air balloon "with full authority", and only 300 spirit stones were sold, and only one steam engine was built, and one-tenth of it was already used, which is simply burning money!
"The main reason is that the hardness required by the young master is too high, so the whole body of this steam engine is made of cold iron, and the average thickness of the whole body is not less than two inches. Coupled with some attached valves and pipelines, there are already more than 25 spirit stones in the materials alone. Tie Tuo explained.
"25 spirit stones are still just materials?" Jumping beads' distressed little face twitched. A spirit crystal is enough to worry about the two of them eating and drinking for two years, this pile of broken iron lumps will use up the He family's rations for sixty years at once, this is simply ......
"Miss Bihe, do you know what the price of cloth is now, and how long will it take for us to recoup our capital if we use this thing to weave and sell it?" asked Jumping Bead.
At this time, Jumping Bead obviously regarded Bihe as a member of the He family, and even this kind of private issue of calculating the He family's income was taken out to discuss with Miss Bihe.
"This ...... If the woven cloth is good enough, it will naturally recoup the cost quickly......" Bihe said stumblingly.
Bihe actually didn't know much about things like cloth prices, and Jumping Bead suddenly asked her what the cost was and what the cost was, and she couldn't answer it for a while.
Seeing that Bihe couldn't speak, Jumping Bead set his eyes on He Wei and Tie Tuo, of course Tie Tuo didn't know the market of cloth, let alone He Wei, he was a young master!
Just when the jumping beads were at a loss, Xiao Porcelain suddenly spoke, and she said: "If the cloth woven by this machine is not bad, according to the price of second-class cloth, it will take about a year to pay back." ”
Jumping beads were stunned for a moment, pouted and said, "It's really fake? It's been weaving so fast, and it will take so long?"
Xiao Ci nodded, and said firmly: "After all, there is never a shortage of demon beasts on the Zhongling Continent, and there is no shortage of hunters. Every year, only the fur of demon beasts can meet the needs of most people, so the price of cloth has not been high. ”
Jumping beads sighed and didn't say anything. Instead, Tie Tuo said: "Actually, I think this thing can be improved a little more, and it doesn't need to be made entirely of cold iron." The thickness of the whole pot body does not need to be so thick. In this way, both material consumption and manufacturing time can be reduced. ”
He Wei raised his eyebrows and asked, "Will it be dangerous to change it like that?" After all, this thing is still quite dangerous, if it is not strong enough and explodes, it is very likely to hurt people. ”
Tie Tuo nodded and said seriously: "I know this, I have tried the strength of this steam engine just now." I feel that at this level, half an inch of cold iron is enough, and if the young master is not at ease, I can increase it a little more when I cut the material. Then put a few two-finger-wide steel rings on the outside to ensure that there is no danger. ”
"Are you sure?" asked Ho.
Tie Tuo patted his chest and said, "I must be sure." And if this is done, then the cost of a steam engine, even if you add the manual cost, will not exceed 5 spirit stones. ”
"That's great! That means we will be able to recover our capital in less than two months, and by the end of the year, we will be able to earn 25 spirit crystals with a steam engine!" Jumping Bead said excitedly, "Tie Tuo, you hurry up and build another steam engine, and we will start weaving cloth to make money tomorrow." ”
"Okay! Wrap it around me!" said Tietuo.
Thinking that a steam engine can earn 25 spirit crystals a year, not to mention the iron lump, even Bihe, who has always been pure-hearted, couldn't help but get excited.
"Alas, you can only earn 25 spirit crystals a year, which is too slow. He Wei sighed.
As soon as these words came out, Jumping Beads and the others immediately gave He Wei a big roll of the eyes.
What does it mean that "earning 25 spirit crystals a year is too slow?" Do you know what the concept of 25 spirit crystals is? After so many generations of accumulation, the Ma family owns more than half of the shops in Chiyang City, and after a day of hard work, they can earn 5 or 6 gold coins, and it has to be when business is good!
You Young Master He don't have to do anything, you can make a pot of hot water and boil it for a year, and you can earn 25 spirit crystals safely, and you are already more popular than people, okay?
Moreover, with five spirit crystals in one pot, you can completely boil ten pots and eight pots of "hot water", and then you can earn two or three hundred spirit crystals in vain a year, which is simply pie in the sky!
Just when Miss Bihe wanted to make a joke about He Wei, Xiao Ci suddenly said with a cramped and uneasy expression: "He Gongzi, if you think this...... If you make money too slowly...... Can...... Can you take this thing ...... Ruined?"
Hearing this, everyone was slightly stunned, and suddenly they all frowned and looked at Xiao Porcelain. Especially Bihe, her gaze at Xiao Porcelain has involuntarily brought a trace of anger.
This steam engine and the new textile machine were made by He Wei with great difficulty, and Xiao Porcelain wanted He Wei to destroy it in a word, which was simply unreasonable!
"What are you talking nonsense, little porcelain!" Bihe scolded.
Xiao Porcelain's eyes were red, and she explained pitifully with tears: "Our family is very poor, and when my mother was alive, she relied on spinning and selling money to support me and my brother. When my mother died, my brother had to follow the hunting group to hunt monster beasts in the monster forest to earn money. ”
"Every time my brother enters the Demon Beast Forest, I will sit at the door of the house and wait, but when I see the people from the hunting group coming back, I don't dare to look at them, for fear that there is no brother among the people who come back alive. ”
"Later, in order to prevent my brother from following the hunting group into the Demon Beast Forest, I secretly sold myself into Penglai Pavilion and used the money from selling my body to marry my brother's daughter-in-law. Relying on the money my sister-in-law earned from weaving and spinning, my brother's family can barely get by, so my brother no longer has to go into the monster forest. ”
