"General Cheng, this is the first batch of flashlights we purchased. Hongyi Production Institute has given me a batch of products first, and it will not start selling them tomorrow."

As a manager of the Logistics Department of the Royal Military Academy of the Tang Dynasty, Qiao Fa came to Cheng Yaojin with a flashlight.

Although the Logistics Department had some contact with Hongyi Production Institute before.

However, this time I decided to order a batch of flashlights for trial, and I mainly saw the support attitude of Guanshishan Academy and Datang Group to Hongyi Production.

Don’t think that only future generations should talk about politics. In the Tang Dynasty, we should emphasize politics more.

If you don’t have this enlightenment, it is impossible to do well.

"It's very convenient to hold it with one hand and the weight is quite appropriate.

I just don't know how bright the light is."

Cheng Yaojin picked up a flashlight, studied it for a while, and then figured out how it was used.

The entire flashlight has only one switch.

Pushing up means power on, pulling down means power on. The principle is very simple.

“I just found a closed room and tried it.

If you just light a kerosene lamp, the brightness of this flashlight will definitely be much higher.

At least five kerosene lamps should be lit in that room so that the brightness can be compared with the flashlight.

The most important thing is that the light of this flashlight is relatively concentrated.

If we want to look at things in a certain place alone, it is obviously much more appropriate to use a flashlight.

But it is precisely because of the flashlight that gathers the light together.

If it is used as a fixed lighting material, it is still not suitable.

It’s like reading a book in the study at night, using a flashlight should not be convenient for kerosene lamps.

But if we march and fight, suddenly we need to look at some place at night, or have to rush on the road, then a flashlight is a very suitable thing.”

As a professional logistics staff member in the Royal Military Academy of the Tang Dynasty, Qiao Fa has obviously studied these things quite well.

After just a brief understanding of the operation, he figured out the advantages and disadvantages of the flashlight.

"How much does it cost to purchase such a flashlight?"

Cheng Yaojin naturally understood what Qiao Fa explained immediately.

At this time, what you need to pay attention to is the price of the flashlight.

"They sold us to ninety-eight Tang Yuan, and said they were sold to us at a loss, but I probably couldn't believe this.

We will probably know how to sell it on the market tomorrow.

Of course, they also said that it is now the first batch of flashlights, and the various costs have not been fully reduced.

If the technology becomes more mature in the future, it is estimated that the procurement cost of a flashlight can be reduced to about a few dozen cents.

At that time, we used flashlights as standard equipment for the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, so it was not that difficult to accept."

Many of the new technology products of Datang, the Logistics Department of the Military Academy will be the first to participate in the trial.

In fact, no matter which era it is, new technologies are often used first in military affairs, and there is no problem with this rule.

Although flashlight is just an auxiliary product and cannot be used directly to improve combat effectiveness, it is obviously very promising.

"Let's go back and give each teacher one of these flashlights, and then find a special forces team to try it out. Then you can collect your feedback on the flashlight in time.

If you have anything to modify, you can directly feedback it to Hongyi Productions."

Cheng Yaojin's words basically opened the window for the flashlight to enter the Tang army.

As long as the flashlight does not lose its chain, it will definitely be a standard item for the Tang Dynasty military in the future.

Just like a kettle made of galvanized steel plates, it is now the standard equipment of the Tang Dynasty military.

...

"Shopkeeper Hong, we have sent more than a thousand flashlights over the Treasure Pavilion.

Then we have already prepared the flashlight shops that we started in the east and west markets.

Now it depends on how you perform tomorrow morning.”

Lai Yuanhong has been busy with Hong Yi in the workshop these days.

Although Guanshishan Academy and Datang Group have the full help, there are still many things for them.

"I don't know how many eyes are looking at us in Chang'an City this time, but we must not have trouble."

Hong Yi was pacing back and forth in the room, obviously a little nervous.

Originally, if he did the flashlight project at his own pace, he would definitely not be as nervous as he is now.

It's nothing more than just researching things step by step and then pushing them to the market.

No matter what the final response is, it is a range he can accept.

But the situation is different now. Guanshishan Academy and Datang Group have provided so much help, and it is obvious that they have high hopes for the flashlight project.

This matter is no longer a matter of Hongyi Productions.

"I'm not worried about any trouble. Judging from the current situation, the practicality of the flashlight is very powerful.

The price we set now is not expensive at all.

Although ordinary people can't afford it for the time being, there are still many people in Chang'an City that can afford it.

In addition, the Royal Military Academy of the Tang Dynasty has taken the lead in purchasing, and what we need to worry about at that time is that the production speed of batteries cannot keep up with demand.

In particular, in addition to selling flashlights, batteries can also be sold separately.

It is possible to sell a flashlight, but how many pairs of batteries will be sold at the same time.”

Lai Yuanhong's mentality is much more stable than Hong Yi.

Of course, his status is also related to his status.

Although he is also a shareholder of Hongyi Productions, the things that small shareholders need to worry about are obviously completely different from what major shareholders need to worry about.

"That's it, but who knows what problems will happen after so many flashlights are sold.

If some people with ulterior motives are concerned about these small problems, we will become very passive."

Although Hong Yi is very confident in the skills of his workshop.

But flashlight is a new thing after all, so there is no problem with whether it is really a problem. His confidence is actually insufficient.

If you sell a bunch of flashlights at that time and then a bunch of people come to return the goods in a few days, it would be a bit embarrassing.

"There are Guanshishan Academy and Datang Group watching next to us. If someone wants to stumbling us, there will naturally be someone who stands up to support us.

Manager Hong, I think you need to change your mindset now and don’t worry about gains and losses.

If you take a step back, even if some problems really arise at that time, it will make no sense for your concern now."

Lai Yuanhong was also a little worried that it would be unfair to make some wrong arrangements because Hong Yi was in a hurry and add chaos to what was already perfect.

"You are right. I'll go to the workshop and then take a look at what's wrong with production.

I won’t care about other things for now. After the sale will start tomorrow, many things will naturally become clear.”

Hong Yi is not stupid either, knowing that his current mentality is a bit wrong.

But at the beginning, I was a little overwhelmed.

Now Lai Yuanhong specifically reminded him that the situation changed soon.

The best way to relieve tension is to divert attention and make yourself busy again.

Hong Yi obviously has quite experienced this.

...

"Shopkeeper Lao, I have an offer I want to discuss with you."

Jingmu, who has been specializing in developing engines in the workshop, took the initiative to come to Lao Hansan today.

"What proposal? Have there been some changes in the current progress in engine research?"

Lao Hansan felt a little nervous when he saw Jing Mu suddenly come to find him.

This workaholic has been busy all this time and has never taken the initiative to come to find him.

Now, suddenly, with a serious expression, he told me that I wanted to discuss things. This was obviously not a good thing.

If there is a breakthrough in engine development, you must be excited to come over.

"It's not about the engine, but it has something to do with our transport team.

I wonder if you have noticed the report on the "Datang Daily" these days. Today, Hongyi Production will start selling flashlights they researched and produced.

If this thing is really as practical as the advertisement says, then I think it can be equipped with one for each coachman.

Our convoys will need to go out at night from time to time.
