Chapter 389, the Way to Go
"Brother Qin, the price is easy to negotiate. As long as you are willing to buy the spaceship for us, you have the final say on the price."
Ji Rong looked at Qin Yi, and the old fox saw at a glance that Qin Yi must have left a few spaceships for him, and he made an excuse to say no, because he was always thinking of taking advantage of the price.
There is no way. It seems that there is really no room for negotiation on the price. As Qin Yi said, favors belong to favors, and business belongs to business. Qin Yi has no reason to make money without making money.
As long as you can buy a spaceship, the rest is not important. Although the price is expensive, this spaceship is really making money. If you are lucky enough to go to an asteroid, the spaceship will earn it back. enough.
Countries in the world that used to think spaceships were expensive are not tightening their belts one by one, trying to save money to buy spaceships, because everyone is jealous.
Asteroids in the asteroid belt are now in the eyes of everyone as mountains of gold and silver. Pulling one back will cost hundreds of billions. If you are lucky enough, trillions are possible.
Foreigners spend 5 trillion Chinese dollars to buy Qin Yi's spaceship, and they always want to take advantage of Qin Yi's price. That's why Qin Yi said that there is no spaceship.
"There are really no more spaceships. I have to wait for the fourth batch. My Dragon Nest space factory will be fully operational in the fourth batch. At that time, more than ten spaceships can be built at one time, and there is no problem with how many spaceships are needed."
Qin Yi smiled and shook his head. Originally, Qin Yi's consistent principle was to keep a few spaceships for himself. All of them were sold out. If he wanted to do something big, he would have to ask others in turn. This was not in line with Qin Yi's opinion. Principles of doing things.
"I would have placed the order earlier if I knew it."
Ji Rong, Old Wang and Old Ma looked at each other and said helplessly.
"Brother Qin, it should be no problem to keep two spaceships for me in the fourth batch of spaceships, right?"
"Of course there is no problem. The fourth batch of spacecraft has only received orders for a few ships."
Qin Yi pointedly said that the spaceship is too big and the amount of engineering is too large. It takes a year to build a spaceship, so this spaceship is also built in batches, batches are built a year, and the output is limited. , in limited quantities.
"It's almost time to start building the second Dragon's Nest Factory. It's better to choose the location of the second Dragon's Nest Factory closer to the asteroid belt, but this gravity technology needs to be researched, otherwise , In space for a long time, even if there is a lot of exercise every day, the calcium in the bones will be lost in the body."
"Without gravity technology, this space factory, space building and the like still can't leave the earth, and it will always be limited. It can't go on like this."
Qin Yi's mind is thinking about the expansion of production capacity. Even if a Dragon Nest space factory is fully operational, it can only build a dozen Qinglong-class spaceships a year.
In the future, even larger space battleships, spaceships for interstellar navigation, and Miron-class spaceships for asteroids to fly in the solar system will be built. This Dragon Nest space factory alone is not enough. More space factories must also be built.
In terms of location selection, Qin Yi actually prefers to be close to the asteroid belt, because the steel resources needed to build a spacecraft are very large, and the Qinglong-class spacecraft requires millions of tons of steel. If it is close to the asteroid belt, it is close to the rich resource area. , it is much easier to obtain resources.
In addition, the asteroid belt is far away from the earth, and the space is very wide, so you can toss around freely, but the earth is completely different. The rapid development of the interstellar space industry in recent years, although the outer space of the earth is vast, it is gradually becoming saturated. .
Space construction, space solar power plants, space farms, space factories, satellites, spaceships, etc., these things almost crowd the outer space of the earth, leaving less and less space.
As for some good orbits, Lagrangian points and other resources, they were used up early.
Like Qin Yi's Dragon Nest Space Factory, it occupies a Lagrange point between the earth and the moon, and it is still the best point.
It has almost become an inevitable and a trend to develop outward and develop to a wider space.
Qin Yi wants to see more large-scale factories, so he must look at a wider area and get out of the shackles of the earth.
But the earth is the planet of life, and its status is irreplaceable.
Once far away from the earth, if you work and live in space for a long time, it will inevitably bring many problems, of which physical health is a very important issue.
Human beings evolved step by step on the earth, and everything in the body has become accustomed to the environment on the earth. Once they are separated from the environment of the earth and live in an environment without gravity for a long time, various problems will arise. Appear.
Therefore, the problem of gravity must be solved, and interstellar voyages and interstellar colonization must also solve this problem. If there is no gravity generation device on the spacecraft, if you want to rely on it to colonize interstellar space, you will have problems before you reach it.
"Gravity technology is not difficult, first research it, and then you can start building more factories in space."
Qin Yi thought about a lot in his mind at once, and sorted out the way to go in the next few years.
"I think it may not be enough to order 2 ships. Otherwise, we will add another one. The current asteroid belt is full of gold and silver mountains. We should seize the opportunity."
"In a few more years, when the number of spaceships increases, the high-value asteroids will be mined almost, and it will not be as easy for us to make a fortune."
"I think I'll order three spaceships first."
Hearing Qin Yi's answer, Old Wang pondered for a while, and after thinking about it, he also discussed with Ji Rong and Old Ma.
"Three ships, the pressure is a bit high, but you are right, Old Wang, if you don't seize the time and opportunity now, there will be no such good time to pick up money in the future. I think it can be done. If the money is not enough, I will find everyone. Let's get together, anyway, this time it is also a big profit, and the difference will not be too much."
The old man thought for a while and said, expressing his support for Lao Wang's proposal.
"Then three ships, take advantage of now to earn more pension money."
Ji Rong also nodded, then turned to look at Qin Yi and said, "Brother Qin, let's order three. There should be no problem with three spaceships."
"Oh, what did you say?"
Qin Yi was thinking about things in his mind, and he came back to ask.
"We think that 2 spaceships may not be enough. If we want to order three spaceships, there should be no problem, right?"
Ji Rong repeated his words.
"Okay, okay, I used to say that my spaceship is expensive, but now I buy three spaceships. It seems that you have all tasted the sweetness. Don't you say that my spaceship is expensive now?"
Qin Yi nodded, then thought about it and said.
"Brother Qin, this spaceship is still very expensive. After we bought this spaceship, we will go to the streets to beg for food. If we can't afford food in the future, I will come to your house, brother Qin, to eat food every day."
Ji Rong smiled and said, this is also a partnership between everyone to do business, if he is alone, it is difficult for him to operate.
"Then you can buy less, can't you just buy a spaceship?"
"What's more, if you are going to beg for food, Lao Ji, the whole world will probably starve to death."
Qin Yi looked at Ji Rong, shook his head and said.
"That won't work. I think three ships are too few. If brother Qin, you are willing to give us some discounts. For example, this spaceship can be paid in half first, and then in installments, I can place an order for five spaceships from you."
When Ji Rong heard this, he shook his head again and again, this spaceship is a treasure for making money, and when it goes to Jinshan and Yinshan, he can't wait to own ten or eight now.
"Haha, that's not good, then I'm going to beg for dinner."
