v4 Chapter 9: Cant look down on the carriage? (2/2)

”I just said that I don't look down on the performance of the carriage, because the performance of the carriage is far less than that of the magic locomotive. It has not met the needs of people. The most important point is that it cannot meet the current huge Transportation needs.”

Xu Yi paused and pointed to the large cargo magic locomotive at the gate of the venue.

”Look, the standard payload of this large cargo magic locomotive is ten tons. If it is a carriage, it is the largest one of the largest trucks that was pulled by eight horses before the Phillips. The carriage has a maximum load of no more than three tons and a maximum of four tons.”

”There is not so much difference, it is totally unacceptable.” A reporter retorted.

”Is it?” Xu also smiled. “You have forgotten two very important issues, one is the cost of input and the other is the maintenance of operating expenses.”

”Oh? Please let the president talk in detail.”

”First of all, let's talk about the cost of input. Do you know how much the cost of the large cargo wagon of the Philsons and Horses? Tell you, President Pompeii told me personally, that large load. The horse-drawn carriage was specially ordered by him, in order to be able to bear enough heavy goods. The most durable materials were selected, and the whole vehicle cost was as high as 3,000 gold coins.”

”But the price of your large cargo magic locomotive is enough to cost 5,000 gold coins, which is much higher than that of a large cargo carriage.” Another reporter sighed.

”Have you forgotten the eight horses?” Xu also immediately asked.

The reporter suddenly got a glimpse.

”The horse capable of dragging three or four tons of cargo. Of course, it is the best horse. So the purchase of these eight horses by Philson is a thousand gold coins. So summed up, this large load The cost of the wagon is up to 8,000 gold coins.”

The reporters looked at each other and had nothing to say.

Xu also took out the actual data, so that they have no way to refute.

”After the input cost, let's talk about the maintenance of operating expenses.” Xu also continued. ”According to the data I got from President Pompeii, if you want to use that big cargo wagon, then every day you need to spend the minimum of 20 for the eight horses. Gold coins. The maintenance and repair costs of the large cargo wagon itself are as high as 2,000 gold coins per year. On average, it is more than 50 gold coins per day. To sum up, I want to use this large cargo wagon every day. It costs a minimum of seventy gold coins. The farther you run, the more you consume.”

”So the president, how many gold coins do you need to consume this large-scale cargo magic locomotive every day?” the reporter immediately asked.

”The normal consumption of this large cargo magic locomotive also has two parts, some of which are also daily maintenance and repair. According to the maintenance standards currently established by our Chamber of Commerce, if there is no major accident, under normal circumstances, this large cargo magic locomotive is annually. Maintenance costs are between 300 and 500 gold coins.”

”So little?” The reporters did not believe. ”Isn't that an average of one gold coin per day?”

”This is already a lot.” Xu also shook his head. “If we later get a new breakthrough in the technology of the Chamber of Commerce on the Magic Locomotive, the maintenance cost will be further reduced.”

”So what about the other part of the cost? The horses of the carriages are going to graze. You can't run the magical locomotives, you can't run them?” another reporter asked.

”Of course, if you want to run the horse, you have to let the horses graze. Presumably you should be very clear that the magic locomotive is driven by the consumption of magic crystals. Then this large cargo magic locomotive, naturally, there is no zone for him. The same is the consumption of magic crystal. According to the internal testing standards of our Chamber of Commerce, this large-scale freight magic locomotive consumes an average of 13 mega-magic power at normal driving speed, if using the one recently distilled by our Chamber of Commerce. For the standard magic crystal, the total price is 13 gold coins.”

”That is to say, if you pull ten tons of goods and run out of 100 kilometers, you only need to spend 13 gold coins?” The reporters in the audience looked incredible.

Xu also smiled: ”There is also a very important factor, that is speed. If you load ten tons of cargo normally, this large cargo magic locomotive can maintain a speed of forty kilometers on the normal road. What about the carriage?”

A group of reporters looked at each other and smiled at the same time.

carriage? Don't say that the carriage is dragging ten tons of cargo. Even if it is running empty, it can only run out for 30 kilometers in an hour.

Seeing the reaction of the reporters in the audience, Xu also spread his hands: ”Now, you tell me, why can't I look down on the carriage?”

The reporters laughed in unison.

After a while, the tabloid reporter suddenly raised his hand again.

”Mr. Xu, I asked you a few questions about the magic locomotive. Now I have a personal question about you. I want to ask you this opportunity. It is about your newly born daughter. Are you willing to answer?”

Other reporters frowned and looked at him, and they could not help but scorn.

Here is the product conference of the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce. What personal questions are you coming to?

However, I heard the question about Xu Yixin’s birth of a daughter. All the reporters all looked at each other and turned their heads to look at Xu Yi. The eyes were full of expectations.

”Sure enough, it is still coming.” Xu also showed a slight smile on his chest and nodded gently. ”I am in a good mood today, so yes. Please.”

”That's good. Xu Huichang, I heard that you directly determined that she is your sole successor on the day of my daughter's birth. Is this true?” (To be continued)
