Three Kingdoms: Liu Daer Was Forced Out of the Mountain at the Beginning

Under the arrangement of shopkeeper Qian, the nobles and wealthy businessmen who came to buy steam engines lined up in the shop to pay.

On the first day of business, eighteen steam engines had been sold.

That day, the nobles and wealthy businessmen who learned that the steam engines sold in the steam engine shop only cost 500 taels of silver, on a first-come, first-served basis, and each person was limited to two units, immediately flocked to the shop.

In just one day, the first batch of thirty steam engines brought by Shopkeeper Qian had already been sold out.

The cost of a steam engine in the R\u0026D center is only one hundred taels of silver. Including the cost of transportation and stores, it is only one hundred and twenty taels of silver.

In other words, the profit of a steam engine is as high as 380 taels, which is more than three times the cost!

These thirty steam engines brought Bai Feng a profit of more than 10,000 taels of silver.

Compared with the steam engines sold in Yizhou, the profit has tripled.

For Shopkeeper Qian, today is very tiring, but very exciting.

The sales situation of steam engines is much more exaggerated than that of soap.

After all, soap is only used to improve the quality of life, while steam engines can bring more value to the nobles and wealthy businessmen who buy them.

Whether it is transformed into a steam loom or resold, it is very profitable.

After recording today's steam engine sales, Shopkeeper Qian asked the guys to go back and rest, while he invited Shopkeeper Chen to come out and have a drink together.

If we don't go out for a drink to celebrate, Shopkeeper Qian might be too excited to sleep tonight.

After receiving the invitation from Shopkeeper Qian, Shopkeeper Chen naturally went happily.

By the way, I also brought along Shopkeeper Zhao from the antique calligraphy and painting shop, intending to introduce him to Shopkeeper Qian.

In the restaurant, Shopkeeper Qian saw Shopkeeper Chen with other people. He stood up and smiled at Shopkeeper Chen:

"Shopkeeper Chen, what do you call this person?"

"This is my good friend, Shopkeeper Zhao. His antique calligraphy and painting shop is right next door to the first soap shop."

Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Chen introduced Shopkeeper Zhao to Shopkeeper Qian.

"And shopkeeper Zhao helped me a lot after I came to Yecheng. It's not an exaggeration to say that he is a close friend."

Shopkeeper Zhao listened to Shopkeeper Chen's praise of him and couldn't help but raise his chest and head with a proud expression.

"Hahaha, Shopkeeper Zhao, nice to meet you!"

Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Qian smiled at Shopkeeper Zhao and prepared to introduce himself.

But before Shopkeeper Qian could speak, he heard Shopkeeper Zhao say:

"Although Shopkeeper Qian has been in Yecheng for less than ten days, I have already heard the name of the person who signed the seal many times, hahaha!"

"The day this steam engine shop opened, I went to join in the fun."

"Looking at the people coming to buy steam engines outside the store, I suddenly thought of the grand occasion when the soap store opened."

Shopkeeper Zhao now believes that the goods sold by shopkeepers from Hanzhong are in short supply and everyone will rush to buy them as soon as they are released.

After listening to this, Shopkeeper Qian felt that he should be somewhat famous in Yecheng now!

This feels so good!

Afterwards, wine and food were served one after another, and after the greetings, the three people sat down and began to taste the food and wine.

"Shopkeeper Chen, what good things do you want from Hanzhong Hou to open a shop in Yecheng?"

After Shopkeeper Zhao listened to Shopkeeper Qian's account of the sales of steam engines in Yizhou, he couldn't help but ask Shopkeeper Chen.

"Hahaha, although I can't give you an accurate answer to this, you just need to believe that all the products launched by Hanzhonghou will definitely be worth the money!"

Shopkeeper Chen said to Shopkeeper Zhao very proudly at this time.

Whether it's soap, steam engines, or earlier water-powered looms.

The products launched by Bai Feng were popular among the common people and nobles of the Wei Dynasty.

Water-powered looms and steam looms can be said to have had an immediate impact on the changes in the textile industry.

Soap is also constantly changing people's requirements for daily necessities.

Even when Bai Feng launched soap, the toothbrush and toothpaste that came with it became the favorites of the nobles.

"Hahaha, shopkeeper Chen, you are right!"

Shopkeeper Zhao couldn't help laughing loudly after hearing this. He suddenly wanted to see how many new products Bai Feng could launch and how much impact it could have on the entire Wei Dynasty.

Later, Shopkeeper Zhao learned about the production process of steam engines from Shopkeeper Qian.

"Mr. Qian, this steam engine only needs to boil water to generate power, and it is also made of steel. It must take a long time to produce one. Do you need the best blacksmith?"

As for the price of the steam engine, even shopkeeper Zhao, who runs an antique calligraphy and painting shop, thinks that the price is not cheap at all and can be said to be expensive.

Such an expensive thing must be very complicated to manufacture and consume manpower and material resources, right?

After Shopkeeper Qian listened to Shopkeeper Zhao's inquiry, he spoke to Shopkeeper Zhao about the steam engine production line in the R\u0026D center.

Under the leadership of Bai Feng, he went to the production line of the R\u0026D center to see the production process of steam engines.

This is also to allow shopkeeper Qian to better understand the performance of the steam engine.

In addition, Bai Feng also asked Shopkeeper Qian to master a certain level of steam engine maintenance capabilities, so as to provide a certain level of after-sales service to Yecheng nobles and wealthy businessmen who purchased steam engines.

"The steam engine was not built by one big craftsman, but by many craftsmen who made different parts and finally assembled them into a complete steam engine."

Shopkeeper Qian did not mention the R\u0026D center, but simply introduced the production process of the steam engine to Shopkeeper Zhao.

However, this information was beyond Shopkeeper Zhao's understanding.

“It turns out that the manufacture of a steam engine requires the participation of so many craftsmen. It’s really unimaginable!”

Shopkeeper Zhao couldn't help but exclaimed.

Shopkeeper Chen has never seen a steam engine production line, but after listening to Shopkeeper Qian's description, he can roughly imagine the production method of a steam engine production line.

In fact, the production of steam engines and soaps are both assembly line products with a high degree of division of labor.

The production process is essentially the same.

Shopkeeper Qian listened to Shopkeeper Zhao's exclamation and couldn't help but think of his own mood when he saw the steam engine production line for the first time.

Just like the current shopkeeper Zhao.

"The production line production method should become the mainstream in the future."

Finally, shopkeeper Chen said to shopkeepers Zhao and Qian.

He had heard Bai Feng mention it before about industrialization.

Bai Feng said at the time that soap production was a practical application of industrialization.

And industrialization is not carried out in isolation, but is always complementary to the development of agriculture and other industries.

Just like the water-powered loom and steam engine changed the textile industry.

Soap has the same effect on daily necessities.
