Chapter 47 Household Magic Machinery Workshop
"Hey, Cambi, why didn't you complain about not having a job some time ago? Let me tell you good news. Now you have a job, and there are a lot of work!" Xu Yi smiled and patted Cambi's shoulder hard, but because of the dwarf's thick skin, he hurt his hands.
"What life? Is it a magic harvester?" Camby asked immediately after his eyes lit up.
Xu Yiyang Yang smiled and said, "That's right, it's a magic harvester. There are seventeen units, and they must be made within a week. What do you think?"
Camby had a happy expression just now, but after hearing this number, he collapsed instantly.
"Seventeen? It will take another week?" Camby shook his head with a bitter face. "This is too exaggerated, right? Even if we start working hard now, we can't make one in a day."
"Hey, I don't care about this. In short, I'm going to follow the order. If you can't complete the task, don't blame me for deducting your salary next month." Xu Yi showed a bloody capitalist face, stuffed the order into Cambi's arms, hummed a small song and left the magic machine workshop.
He couldn't be in a bad mood.
A total of seventeen magic harvesters!
According to the price of each unit of 70 gold coins, this is a total of 1,190 gold coins!
According to Sebass' cost calculation, the cost of each magic harvester is even less than ten gold coins.
In other words, for every magic harvester sold, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce earned a full sixty gold coins!
This is equivalent to 600% profit! It is impossible to describe huge profits!
At first, Xu Yi was planning to price according to the price of "fifty gold coins" mentioned by Viscount Leslie, but later Viscount Leslie suggested that Xu Yi could raise the price a little further. He could guarantee that he would still be able to sell it.
The proposal of Viscount Leslie proved to be very correct.
After witnessing the magic of the magic harvester with one's own eyes, more than twenty nobles proposed the intention of purchasing the magic harvester on the spot.
Although Xu Yi offered a high price of 70 pieces per unit, these nobles still agreed without blinking.
This made Xu Yi even regret that the price was still too low.
The reason why he received only seventeen orders later was that Xu Yi politely rejected several nobles considering that the production capacity of the magic machine tool workshop was not yet sufficient.
Because of Xu Yi's polite refusal, the nobles were quite unhappy and thought that Xu Yi looked down on them.
Fortunately, Viscount Leslie rolled it out and claimed that he would rent the magic harvester he already had to them for use, and then it was finally resolved.
"From this perspective, the production capacity of the magic machine tool workshop is still insufficient. It seems that the research on forging machinery must be further accelerated. Otherwise, if there will be more and more orders to be received in the future, but it cannot be completed, wouldn't we be able to watch the fat in our mouth slip away?" Xu Yi thought to himself unwillingly.
As for Camby's complaint that they could not complete the order, Xu Yi naturally would not take it seriously.
You can only complete one or more in a day, because the magic harvester was still in the development stage before.
Now that the development has been successfully developed and officially put into production, it is naturally impossible to maintain such low production efficiency.
Shiqi, one week, this is the number that Xu Yi has carefully calculated. With the ability of Cambi and those dwarves, he can definitely complete this task.
Of course, this week will definitely be more tiring.
But who made Cambi claim that the dwarves are the most hard-working, and complained that Xu Yi gave them too little work?
While thinking about what to do next to improve the production capacity of the magic machine tool workshop, Xu Yi walked to the magic fan production workshop.
After the end of August, the magic fan production workshop was obviously much more idle than before.
During that time, the workshop was almost always running at full capacity, and the slaves even spent a lot of time on their shifts.
After completing the largest order of 3,000 magic fans in Kalma City, the magic fan workshop suddenly came down.
As Xu Yi had predicted before, as late summer approached, families willing to buy magic fans decreased sharply, and the demand for magic fans decreased significantly, so naturally orders would not come as before.
Xu Yi's eyes swept through the workshop that had been quieter, and then he saw Heince squatting in a corner, with a look of regret and no idea what he was thinking.
It was not until Xu Yi walked to him and squatted down that Heince realized.
"Ah? Xu Yi, when did you come?"
"Just come." Xu Yi smiled and asked back, "What? What are you thinking? You look worried."
"How can I not worry?" Hiinze smiled bitterly and pointed to the workshop in front of him. "Look, the orders for magic fans have been reduced so much now, and maybe even one will not be sold next month. Why don't I worry? If this continues, the workshop may be closed next month and will be discontinued."
"Isn't this the result we had expected long ago?" Xu Yi said indifferently.
Haiyince looked at Xu Yi very seriously and suddenly said, "Xu Yi, to be honest, are you planning to give up this magic fan workshop?"
Xu Yi was stunned: "Who told you that I want to give up?"
"What about the new product you mentioned?" Heince extended his hand to Xu Yi. "Don't act like I don't know. You helped Cambi and their magic machine workshop develop that magic harvester, which seems to be selling well now. In addition, the machine tools they were already making, their magic machine workshop is very busy every day. Look at our magic fan workshop, it will only get less and less work, and maybe they will have to close the door in the end. You said, aren't you favoring one or the other?"
Xu Yi was immediately confused.
"I said Heinze, what are you thinking about here alone? Whether it is the magic fan workshop or the magic machine workshop, it is the most important part of our chamber of commerce. How could I just give up on one end? Yes, there is a lot of work in the magic machine workshop now, but if you think I will give up on the magic fan workshop, that would be a big mistake! Let me tell you the truth, this workshop should actually be changed from today. It is not called the magic fan workshop, but the home magic machinery workshop."
"Home Magic Machinery Workshop?" Heinze was stunned. "What does this mean?"
"It means that in the future, this workshop will not only produce magic fans, but also produce magic machinery for all family life. Didn't I ask you to produce thirty magic air conditioners some time ago? Did you forget?"
"Of course I won't forget this. But Xu Yi, that magic air conditioner is not as popular as you said. After selling thirty units, there are no new orders at all."
Xu Yi couldn't help but give him a blank look: "Nonsense, Magic Air Conditioner is a 20 gold coin per unit, so it's not that easy to sell. Besides, it's already half over the summer at that time. How could so many people buy luxury goods like Magic Air Conditioner? But you don't have to worry, Magic Air Conditioner is not like Magic Fans that can only be used in summer, but also in winter."
"When you use it in winter? Are you kidding?" Heinzer widened his eyes. "The wind blowing from that thing is so cool. Can't you freeze people to death in winter?"
"I said Heince, why are you so stupid?" Xu Yi sighed with a little regret. "Who told you that magic air conditioners can only blow cold air? The so-called air conditioners mean air conditioning. They can make the air cooler, and of course they can also make air empty.
The air gets warmer. Let me tell you that when it is cold, we will start selling magic air conditioners that can make heating. I am sure it will be a big seller at that time."
Heinzer's eyes lit up: "Are you saying true? Is there really a way to warm the air?"
"When did I lied to you?"
"That's great! If that's the case, then we will make a lot of money again!" Heinzer stood up excitedly.
Xu Yi sighed helplessly. No matter how he instilled his business philosophy into Heince through all methods, Heince has always been so petty. It seems that he is only suitable to be a factory manager at most and cannot have higher development.
This is also a helpless thing. A person's knowledge is related to the environment. Before meeting Xu Yi, Heince was just a small grocery store owner, so how could he have extraordinary insight?
After a while of excitement, Heinze suddenly remembered something and suddenly became depressed again.
"But Xu Yi, this summer is over, and there are still several months before winter. What are we doing during this period?"
Xu Yi glanced at him: "Did you forget what I told you last time? Let me tell you good news. Steele and the others have almost completed the research of the core magic array. Next, I only need to spend some time combining the magic array with the mechanical structure diagram, and after some experiments, I can officially start production. If the movement is fast enough, it will take less than twenty days to complete it."
"Really? That's great!" Heinze breathed out and felt relieved this time when he heard that the workshop would not be shut down.
Seeing his anxious look, Xu Yi sighed helplessly again.
This time, it was not for Heince, but for the backward industrial system of the Sainz continent.
The electric fans in the original world may not necessarily have no work to do once they are in summer.
No one buys it now, so at worst it can be produced and stored first, and sold it together in the summer next year.
And even if it is converted to production, it is easy. The powerful industrial system of the original world can ensure that these electric fan manufacturers can produce other products by slightly renovating the production line, so they will definitely not hang themselves on the electric fan tree.
However, on the Continent of Synes, if the magic fan is produced for a year due to material reasons, I am afraid that a lot of scrap will appear next summer.
Moreover, all the machine tool equipment and even workers in this magic fan workshop are tailor-made for magic fans. If you want to switch production, you have to redesign the machine tool and train personnel.
In other words, Xu Yi will have to continue to be busy in the next twenty days.
"Hey, establishing a complete industrial system is really simple to say, but in fact it is harder to do than climbing the sky." Thinking of this, Xu Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly. "Oh no, if you want to say climbing the sky, it is not difficult in this world where magicians run all over the ground..."
