Chapter 1308 Shocking Cost
To be honest, Tina and the others are still hesitant. After all, the transport vehicle is a very unfamiliar thing to them. But in the end, out of trust for her husband, she carefully squeezed into the back seat, with the three girls shoulder to shoulder.
Simon didn't hesitate and sat directly in the passenger seat, then looked around curiously.
After Jia Zhengjin got in the car, he was actually a little nervous.
He had already filled the car with fuel before getting in. Fortunately, he got the oil sent by the dwarves before, otherwise the car would not be able to drive.
The structure of this transport vehicle is slightly different from modern vehicles. But after careful inspection, they found that they were similar, which made Jia Zhengjin breathe a sigh of relief.
There is just no air conditioning system, although the temperature is currently moderate, it is temporarily unavailable. But what will happen when the weather gets hot in the future? It's hard to sit in a car.
Why hasn't a car with air conditioning been revealed?
"Kean, can this car really move?" Tina asked worriedly from behind, "Do you want to input magic power somewhere? Do you need my help?"
"No!" Jia Zhengjin immediately shook his head, "You just have to sit tight. And Simon, buckle your seat belts!"
"Seat belt?" Simon looked confused, "What is it?"
"Yes! What is a seat belt?" Tina and the three of them also looked around them in confusion.
"You don't have the back seat!" Jia Zhengjin quickly turned around and said, then pulled out the seat belt buckle from under his buttocks and said to Simon, "Did you see? Like me."
"This?" Simon thought it was quite new, so he imitated his imitation and unskilledly buckled his seat belt, "Then what?"
"Then get ready to go!" After Jia Zhengjin repeatedly confirmed that there was no problem, he finally started the engine, then shifted gears and stepped on the accelerator.
"It's moving!" As soon as the transport truck started to move forward, Christina shouted in surprise, "It's really moving?"
"There is obviously no magic wave, and there is no horse-drawn carriage..." Palin stretched out her hand to touch the window with an expressionless face, "Why?"
"Huh?" Simon also looked surprised, "I really can't feel any magic power. If it is driven by magic, then I can understand it. But why can you walk without magic or any pulling force?"
"Don't you understand?" Jia Zhengjin slowly increased the speed of the car and said with a smile, "This is high technology!"
"High technology?" Everyone had a look of confusion on their faces, unable to understand the word.
"How is it? Does it feel comfortable to sit on it?" Jia Zhengjin asked proudly while driving forward.
"Much better than a carriage!" Perrin said calmly, "It's very smooth, not bumpy at all. It's like magic."
"Isn't it awesome?" Jia Zhengjin said with a smile, "A horse-drawn carriage is absolutely incomparable to it! In the future, it will definitely replace the horse-drawn carriage and become the most common means of transportation in the world!"
"Isn't it possible?" Simon thought for a moment, frowned and said, "Although your car is indeed novel, in fact, similar magic cars appeared a long time ago. At that time, humans also considered using magic cars to replace horse carriages, but later It's still nothing. Because the maintenance and operation of magic cars are very troublesome, and the cost is extremely high, even the richest chamber of commerce does not dare to buy too many. I think your car is similar to those of magic cars. Dare to ask for..."
"Don't worry!" Jia Zhengjin said, "Although I have never seen any magic car, and I don't know how its performance compares with mine. But I am absolutely confident that such a situation will not happen."
"Really? Yours looks more complicated than a magic car, and it doesn't need magic to drive it. If you want to realize it, you will definitely need to spend a lot of money!" Simon shook his head and said, "How many gold coins do you want to sell such a car? ? It can't be lower than a magic car, right? Do you know how much a magic car costs? Even a very wealthy merchant would consider it very carefully. You know why a magic car is much more convenient than a carriage. The quantity of goods carried has also exceeded countless times, but except for the largest chambers of commerce in the world,
Or choose a horse-drawn carriage? It is because the cost of this car has far exceeded the value of the goods, and it will take who knows how many years to earn it back. No one is willing to do a loss-making business! "
"Is the magic car so expensive?" Jia Zhengjin was a little surprised, "Five hundred thousand gold coins?"
"Otherwise, what do you think?" Simon said calmly, "I think yours is more complicated than a magic car, and it costs more, right? Do you really think you can sell it? No matter how good the performance is and how comfortable you sit, someone has to consider buying it. Okay. I think that with your current status, some nobles and national leaders will give you some respect. It would be interesting to buy a car, but it is impossible to sell more. "
"That's not bad, right?" Tina said excitedly from behind, "Even if one car sells for 500,000 gold coins, selling one hundred will cost 50 million gold coins! That's enough! With Keen's current reputation, selling One hundred cars shouldn’t be a problem!”
"I worked so hard to build the transport truck, is it just for this mere 50 million gold coins?" Jia Zhengjin shook his head.
"Fifty million gold coins is a lot!" Christina said, "Really."
"You don't understand!" Jia Zhengjin saw that the car was approaching the end of the cement road, so he started to turn the steering wheel and turned around, and said at the same time, "Do you really think the cost of this transport vehicle is very high?"
"Isn't it?" Not only Simon, but also Tina and others looked at him in confusion.
"Simon won't say anything," Jia Zhengjin glanced at his wives through the rearview mirror, "When I was making parts, weren't you by my side? Don't you know how much I consumed?"
"Uh~~" Hearing him say that, Tina and the other two looked at each other and said in unison, "I don't know! We were just chatting at the time."
"..." Jia Zhengjin was speechless, it seemed that they had no interest in making things for him at all. He was also addicted to games, and making things was fun, but it was boring for his wives. Thinking of this, he immediately said, "The cost of my transport vehicle is actually very low. It only consumes iron, copper and other ores that can be found everywhere, and then rubber, strange silk and the like, which are all the most common materials. Basically, the material cost of the whole vehicle is probably no more than 2 gold coins!"
"What?!" Hearing this, Tina, Perrin, and Christina all widened their eyes, stood up and leaned forward, and grabbed their husbands' shoulders one after another, "2 gold coins?"
"Hey, hey! Dangerous!" Jia Zhengjin was startled, but fortunately he did not rush out of the road, "Sit down! Sit down quickly!"
Tina and the other two returned to their seats, but their faces still had expressions of disbelief: "2? Are you sure? If this car is sold for 500,000, it is the same as buying it without any capital. It's almost sold out..."
"How can it be sold so expensively?" Jia Zhengjin shook his head and said, "If it really needs to be sold for 500,000, then at most we can only sell 100 cars! I want to make cars popular so that more people can buy them! Think about it, the cost is less than 2 gold coins. If I sell one car for 1,000 gold coins, then most leaders, nobles, and chambers of commerce can afford it. How many ethnic groups and countries are there in this world? What does 1,000 gold coins mean to them? Once they buy in large quantities, the income will definitely be more than 50 million gold coins! Besides, this price can be higher at the beginning. The money we can make is definitely an astronomical figure. Who would be so stupid as to sell only 100 cars at a high price?"
