C3472 Arms quotas for internal sales (2/2)
In Qing Nation, only the true core of authority knew of this news. Xiao Letian was about to gradually open up the arms trade in the special region, and heard that over three thousand high-quality rifles were flowing into the market every year.
This was a huge business deal that he had never even dared to think about before. The huge profits involved were simply unimaginable!
Since ancient times, the technology blockade had been a hotbed of profits. Because no one in the Great Qing could produce such a good barrel, even if you could produce all the other parts of the rifle, you wouldn't be able to produce this barrel.
Because of the monopoly, it was a windfall!
The ancients also understood this logic!
The news had come from Fu Qing himself. The Industrial Zones was about to sell his rifle, which was a weapon made in his own country. The quality was not worse than that of Europe, and the price was much lower. At least the cost of transportation was left.
However, the retail price was not much lower than European goods, and the profit between them was even higher!
The Tanggu Industrial Special Zone's sales were mostly based on the distribution system. Fu Qing was the highest levelled distributor in the Great Qing, while Yi Kuang, Yi Cong and the rest were lower by one level.
Yi Kuang had already made a fortune just by obtaining the second tier distribution rights to industrial products in the Northwest region.
I don't dare to think about it. I really don't dare to think about it.
The price of a Remington would be as high as two hundred taels of silver in the Northwest, but from Industrial Zones, it would at most be twenty or thirty taels of silver. A profit of one hundred times was enough to make everyone in the world go crazy!
Listening to the Young Fifth Master Yi's decryption, Yi Kuang's greedy little flame exploded. He had long thrown the matter of him being an official of the Department of Revenue to Java.
”Fifth brother!” Is that true? Three thousand rifles a year? ”Too little, too little …”
”It's only a plate worth three hundred thousand silver taels, it's not enough!”
”Are you stupid!?” Didn't you know that there was still a need to expand the Special Zone? ”Five months later, the Prussian equipment has arrived, and the output has to roll up!”
”At that time, it's also possible for thirty thousand! ”What you're trying to steal right now is the distribution right. You have to get the distribution right first!”
”You idiot!”
”Right, right... Big brother was right, first we should snatch the distribution rights, then we can earn more money … However … But that brat Fu Qing, he doesn't give me face! ”
Upon hearing this, the Young Fifth Master Yi was angered, ”You're so short-sighted, didn't you just take the road yourself?”
”The year before last, Fu Qing tried to raise funds and said that he wanted to expand the telegraph network … How much did you pay? How disgraceful, you are still a Prince Ching, yet you are so shameless to pay thirty thousand gold? ”
”Fu Qing is not refusing to give you interest, and not asking for your money for nothing, but you are willing to give him thirty thousand?”
”This is for cultivating telegraph network for Great Qing, it's for the benefit of our imperial government. Don't you have any intentions? You have to do it even if you have to pay for it! ”
Yi Kuang said as his face flushed red. Brother, why did you mention this? Wasn't it because of the purchase money that I couldn't transfer back then? ”
”Piss off!” You f * cking bought an entire movie set and spent thirty thousand silver taels on it. Do you really think you don't have any money? ”
”A short-sighted mouse!” Don't think about it, even if you spend money to pull Fu Qing's relationship closer, it would still be worth it! Are you dumbfounded now? ”
”Using Ryukyu's words, you're just a fool!”
