Chapter 777 Active Price Reduction and Quantity Increase

Song Jing finished speaking and asked Bi Gou to take charge of the finances.

Bi Gou looked at the street outside: "The number of cattle and horses in Lijiazhuang exceeds 60,000. We can't keep them in the village, so we can only spread them out through leasing."

Yao Chong understood and said: "Thirty thousand Yu Lin Feiqi and one hundred thousand military horses are kept in the Forbidden Garden. If we buy the livestock of Lijiazhuangzi now, where should we keep them?"

"Follow Li Jia Zhuangzi's method, or only buy those who are young and strong." Song Jing has obviously considered such issues.

Buy the good ones and leave the bad ones to Li Jia Zhuangzi.

He had no choice but to recruit people, so he had to rent livestock and sleds from Lijiazhuangzi.

Li Jia Zhuangzi rented livestock and cars for a fee, but the court could not refuse to pay.

Unless the imperial court does not take over, Li Jia Zhuangzi will continue to be responsible for the problems of the victims.

The idea came from Song Jing's subordinates. He wanted to save face for the court and save money, so he might as well buy it.

After the New Year, a team of 5,000 people was recruited, and it was time to use livestock to transport them.

If you want to buy, it is absolutely not possible to purchase from the market, the price will skyrocket. If you want to buy in bulk, you will naturally look for someone who owns a large number of cattle and horses.

"We can only buy the horse team currently leased to the imperial court by Lijiazhuangzi. The other horses and cattle are in the hands of the common people."

Lu Huaishen shook his head and said to buy, but he was not optimistic about this behavior.

Song Jing took a sip of wine: "The key is whether Li Yi is willing to sell."

"The price is reasonable, I think it's no problem." Bi Gou thought about Li Yi's style of doing things and looked worried again.

"Long Ze..." Song Jing looked at Bi Gou again.

"Okay, I'll go ask. There will be five thousand horses involved in the subsequent material transportation. They are all in good shape. Buy them all? The price is estimated to be around thirty yuan each."

Bi Gou didn't think it was much money. It was only a few hundred thousand yuan, which was enough money.

It’s hard to determine the price, as horses vary from horse to horse.

The Li family's Zhuangzi also has nearly 5,000 military horses, which have been used by the Sixteenth Guards and learned to ride by the people of their own Zhuangzi.

It is said that it is Li Yi's own horse, but it is the imperial military reserve at the critical moment.

He will take it out at any time, including other strong horses to form a baggage team.

After Bi Gou finished speaking, he stood up, stopped eating, and settled the important matters in the court first.

Others sat and waited, hoping that Bi Gou would bring back good news.

Bi Gou hurried to Zhuangzi, thinking that Li Yi would be eating.

As soon as he crossed the bridge, he saw Li Yi coming quickly on two wheels.

‘Ding, ding, ding, ding! Wow! ’

A few steps away, Li Yi stopped the bicycle with the sound of bells, brakes and wheels rubbing against the ground.

"There are no inflated tires, just a layer of leather covering the outside. The bumps are serious. Old Bi is here."

Li Yi got out of the car, looked at the wheels, and muttered hello to Bi Gou.

"This is..." Li Yi disappeared from Bi Gou's eyes, indicating that he had found something good.

"A bicycle, not counting the design cost, costs 500 yuan to build. It is very expensive. The bearings and chain are made of new steel, which is used to make the gun."

Li Yi saw Bi Gou staring at the bicycle and quoted the price first, 500 yuan.

In fact, the material cost of steel smelting is more than ten thousand yuan, not counting the technical cost.

Li Yi's air-blown steelmaking converter has been built, but its requirements for raw materials are higher than those of an open-hearth furnace, and its output is also lower.

Zhuangzi can use it now, iron ore does not cost money, and good coal does not cost money.

In the first step of rough processing, there is coke, but the temperature has not reached the level of steel tapping. Then it is poured into a converter that can blow air. When the air is blown, the furnace temperature rises and turns into steel.

These steels are first made into steel plates, heated and then forged on concave grooves, heat welded, cladded, cored, continued forged, and naturally annealed.

With the addition of other tapping and hole-turning accessories, it becomes a barrel, a barrel without rifling inside.

It uses paper-cased fixed-load ammunition and adopts flintlock ignition mode.

The steel used to make bicycle chains and gears is the same as that used to make guns, and Li Yi plans to sell them.

If you sell the money to make guns, you can make at least twenty guns by selling one bicycle, including all expenses.

Li Yi said that the cost of five hundred mins would be sold for one thousand mins. I don’t know if there are many people who can afford it. If it is not possible, I can pay in installments.

Kerosene lamps and thermos bottles sold well, even though they are basically unsaleable now.

"Let it move." Bi Gou heard the price and wanted to take another look.

Li Yi got on the bike, stepped on the pedals, and the bike circled around Bi Gou.

"This thing is exquisite, like a paddle wheel boat. The big circle in front drives the small circle in the back. The two wheels... why don't they veer left or right?"

Bi Gou asked Li Yi to stop again, observe carefully, and found the secret, which was very simple.

Li Yi also thinks it's simple, provided that the smelting technology improves.

"How much are you going to sell it for?" Bi Gou forgot about buying the horse for a while.

"One thousand yuan, one million yuan per car, lifetime warranty, is it expensive?" Li Yi inquired about the price.

"It's not expensive. Xiao Yi, you know, you are not riding a car. This car has a kerosene lamp hanging on the left, a thermos bottle hanging on the right, and when the bell rings, who doesn't take a high look?"

Bi Gou already had a sense of luxury goods. He had discovered that many people who bought kerosene lamps went out to shop before it got dark.

The attendants carried kerosene lamps and thermos bottles behind them, and when they walked to places where free hot soup was not provided, they shouted, "Pour hot tea."

Bi Gou thinks they hate places that provide free soup. In winter, everyone should bring a thermos bottle to get hot water.

They give you hot soup. You can go over and drink it at any time. It will keep you warm.

I also hate the ice lamps and the "street lamps" around Chang'an. The street lamps are diesel lamps, which are no darker than kerosene lamps.

Some people want to show off, riding a bicycle, wouldn't it be more impressive?

"Xiao Yi, there are many rich people in Luoyang, so it's easy to sell you this..."

"Bicycle."

"Yes, bicycle, a self-propelled vehicle, does not require animal power, and is fast. It belongs to..."

"I want to use the money I earn to make weapons, a new weapon, very powerful. It is not so good at fighting cavalry in the wild, but it is most powerful when defending the city."

Li Yi did not say what kind of commodity bicycles belong to, but weapons.

"Flint-lock paper shell bullets are only a single type of soldiers on flat ground in the wild, and the firing frequency is not enough to stop the cavalry charge." Li Yi explained the reason again.

"Why a single type of soldiers, we have cavalry, shield soldiers, and Mo Dao soldiers in the Tang Dynasty. Make a gun for me to see, and I will know where to use it after seeing it."

Bi Gou refuted Li Yi, since there is a new weapon, it would be great to cooperate with other types of soldiers.

"Okay, UU看书 www.uukanshu.netAfter the New Year?" Li Yi wanted to make a few more, so that the volley gun could show the power of the gun.

"I came here to ask if you can sell your livestock and sleds? The court wants to buy them for the new team." Bi Gou remembered the business.

"Is it Song Jing who thinks that renting horses from Li's farm will cost extra rent? Sell them, which ones do you like?" Li Yi agreed very happily.

"Five thousand better horses, rented to the court for current use, thirty strings of cash each, and no tax will be charged on the sale of horses." Bi Gou opened his palm.

"Twenty-five strings of cash, without adding a carriage, I can sell you ten thousand similar horses, do you want it?" Li Yi took the initiative to lower the price and increase the quantity at the same time.

"A sled is not worth five strings of cash, you lose money." Bi Gou began to doubt, there must be something wrong.

"Do you want to buy it? If you buy it, the settlement will be made today, and the price will increase tomorrow." Li Yi did not explain.

"I will go back and ask." Bi Gou ran away again.
