The first thousand and forty-two chapters succeed in making money
Jiang Xingchen's purpose is to make money first. Now he has manganese steel and steel rolling equipment, and the basic conditions for the railway plan are already met. Next, he will go to terrain exploration, laying railways, and producing steam locomotives. This project requires too much money. Laying a railway requires not only heavy rails, but also sleepers and gravel. In addition, labor and transportation cost more than building a new city.
Jiang Xingchen is rich now, but he can afford such a large project, and he is not able to make ends meet. Moreover, he still needs to build a new city, a curse land, and a university need to build it. He spends more money, paper sharing, luxury goods sales, and territorial tourism combined are not enough. So he must earn more money as soon as possible.
Of course, light rail carriages have a great effect, and transportation within a small range plays a considerable role. The cargo capacity and smoothness are much better than those of today's carriages. In the future, a complete transportation chain can also be formed with the train. Until the future, the carriage appears, such light rail roads will lose their useful value.
Next, Jiang Xingchen spoke eloquently and told the second prince and the third prince of Yueying that many benefits of carriage light rail. The most important point is that he can make money and make a lot of money. Although he has a lot of investment in the early stage, his future returns will be very large.
The two of them were excited when they heard this. Transportation is a big problem for all forces. The transportation industry is also a very profitable industry. If the light rail road is really completed, it is almost certain to make a lot of money.
"Do it! Jiang Xingchen, when I go back, I will talk to the emperor about this!" The second prince nodded vigorously.
"Yes!" The third prince of Yueying nodded, saying, "I will do this when I go back!"
Jiang Xingchen smiled and shook his head and said, "It's not enough to rely on light rail alone, but there are also carriages. This requires cooperation with the transportation bank..."
Jiang Xingchen talked to the two of them for a long time until the sixth princess, who was covered in water, came back and that was over.
"That's all. Let's go, I'll take you to try riding a whale to the sea!" Jiang Xingchen led the two to the beach. When the Sixth Princess heard that she could ride a Doudou to the sea, she became more energetic and followed her into the sea.
After a while, the four of them stood on Doudou's back. They galloped forward in the sea breeze, and the pleasure of riding the wind and waves toward the sky caused the Sixth Princess to scream.
Even the third prince of Yueying, who had always been introverted, was very excited. He put down his disguise and shouted loudly from time to time.
The only difference is the second prince, who has never been brave. At this moment, there is a vast sea around him, and his face is so nervous that he has turned pale. He grabbed Jiang Xingchen's arm tightly, and half of his body hung on Jiang Xingchen.
After a long walk, it was dark when I came back. Jiang Xingchen gathered Doudou to gather his energy, led them back to the room, and took out a large basin full of seafood.
Jiang Xingchen took the initiative and made a seafood feast. This time, the few people ignored everything and swayed their cheeks and ate so happily...
A few days passed quickly, and almost all the forces who received the invitation sent people here. It was only then that Jiang Xingchen showed up and greeted everyone.
People responded politely that no matter how young Jiang Xingchen is, he is the great duke of the empire, and no one dares to be rude.
After a sumptuous lunch, Jiang Xingchen brought people to the highway and the opening ceremony officially began.
It is said to be a ceremony, but Jiang Xingchen talks about the benefits of light rail and then leads people to experience it personally.
Many people have visited the light rail in the past two days and know the meaning of the light rail. They are not surprised at this moment. However, in the subsequent experience, they are not calm. The wide carriage can sit ten people, which fully shows their load capacity. The carriage is running faster and faster. It is almost the same as the speed of riding a horse, and it is not much bumpy, which further shows its stability advantages.
People were talking all the way, whispering to the benefits of light rail, and they were still unsatisfied when they stopped by the beach.
After getting off the carriage and coming to the beach, they saw the killer whale, the little hover and the crab again. Everyone's eyes showed envy. Who wouldn't want to have a monster of their own?
Next, Jiang Xingchen expressed his purpose, which was to sell this kind of light rail railway to everyone.
The second prince was the first to speak, asking Xingchenling to help him build a light rail road. Then there was Yueying's third prince.
Others were still hesitating. Although the light rail roads greatly increased the transportation volume and speed, their disadvantages were also obvious and they needed a flat terrain. In addition, there were many aspects that required planning for urban construction.
But seeing that these two people spoke first, the lords of the Qiankun Empire could not be behind, and they all demanded the construction of light rail. Immediately afterwards, Dali and the Qin Kingdom were not willing to fall behind, especially Daqin. The world's trading companies were the country's transactions, and the daily volume of goods was quite large, and they were indeed needed.
When the Eight Kingdoms and Xuanyuan Tianzong saw this situation, they also demanded construction. The other country had been built, so of course they could not let others lead in this regard. They immediately wrote a letter to their own country, but they were not like Yueying and Daqin, and they could not control such a big thing.
Jiang Xingchen was calm on the surface, but he was smiling inside. Building a light rail road is not complicated. Don’t look at so many forces, as long as there are enough manpower, it can definitely be completed within one year. The most important thing now is the production problem. Xingchen led the existing steel rolling mills will definitely not be able to meet the needs.
With a smile on his face, Jiang Xingchen signed an agreement with various forces, and the price was temporarily set at 800 yellow crystal coins per meter. The specific price depends on the terrain and length of the selected sections of the road, and then a specific contract will be signed.
Everyone was really shocked at the price at first, but then they heard Jiang Xingchen say that each meter of rail weighs 54 kilograms, and they felt relieved.
There are two light rails, and each meter of rails weighs more than 100 kilograms, which is how much it costs. In addition to transportation and construction, it is reasonable to have 800 yellow crystal coins per meter.
After the agreement was signed, the second prince and the others left one after another, and they had to choose a section of the road when they returned.
The first six princess was a little reluctant to leave. She has been quite familiar with Doudou, Xiaohuang, Crab, and Black Electric these days. Ziyun even asked her to ride on her body. Of course, the sixth princess could not bear to leave if she could have such a good relationship with several monsters.
But now it is important to go back to do the main business, so she can only say goodbye to a few monster friends.
After everyone left, a middle-aged man came to Jiang Xingchen's room and bowed to thank him.
The person who came was the owner of the Tongchuan Train. When Jiang Xingchen informed him that he came to the Curse Land, he was still a little confused and didn't know what the Lord was going to do.
Then he saw the light rail and heard about Jiang Xingchen's plan, and his cold sweat came down. If this construction plan was really launched, it would undoubtedly be a huge impact on the transportation-based traffic.
But later Jiang Xingchen told him that he also had a share of it. He would convince all forces to cooperate with Shuntong. Shuntong's task was to modify the carriage in large quantities.
Shuntong's boss has been doing business all his life, and he is so smart that he can understand it as soon as he hears it. Jiang Jue Ye has to earn money for the subsequent construction of light rail roads. How to modify the carriage in Shuntong must be helped by Xingchen. The shape and structure of the wheels need to be matched with the light rail. In other words, in the future, the money that Shuntong earns from the light rail will also be earned by Xingchen.
Shuntong's boss was not awkward at all, but was even happier. It was tied to Jiang Xingchen, which was the safest and safest thing. If it weren't for Shuntong's advertising in the Star Monthly in recent years, people could take you to play, which car to find?
"Judge Jiang, thank you so much this time!" Shuntong's boss was very respectful.
"Haha! We have worked together for many years, it should be!" Jiang Xingchen smiled and waved his hand, saying, "You can prepare more for the early light rail transportation work, and I will also hand it over to you!"
With so many regions that need to be built, Jiang Xingchen can't handle it with his own transportation capabilities. Even in the entire Qiankun Empire, only Shuntong has such ability.
Shuntong's boss was full of joy and thanked him repeatedly, which was another large amount of income.
After seeing off Shuntong's home, Jiang Xingchen found Duan Qingshi again. He had to cooperate with the Duan family in building the light rail. Xingchen Leader now lacks architectural craftsmen.
Duan Qingshi frowned when he heard Jiang Xingchen's request. Of course he wanted to make money. But the Duan family did not have such great strength, so they had to build a new city in Xingchen and build light rail roads across the continent, and there were far insufficient personnel.
"Mr. Duan, you don't need to draw too many people. You only need to train a group of craftsmen. You came here in person to lay the light rail. You should be clear that most of the work is done by labor, and there are not many places that really require technical craftsmen." Jiang Xingchen said.
Duan Qingshi thought for a while and said, "This is, as long as the distance is measured according to the corresponding specifications, the laying will be labor-intensive... But Sir Jiang, the shop is too big this time, and many craftsmen will be transferred away in so many places, which will definitely affect the construction of the new city... Besides, there are universities!"
Jiang Xingchen pondered for a while and said, "This is how you do it, Mr. Duan, please write down the entire operation process, and then we will specially train a group of people. Just let them learn how to operate according to the process... If you encounter special circumstances, such as terrain problems, let them write a letter to ask!"
"This method is feasible!" Duan Qingshi nodded, stood up and said, "I'll write down the process now!"
After seeing off Mr. Duan, Jiang Xingchen sat quietly in the house and said to himself: "The next step is to build an industrial base! Such a large-scale production of light rail is definitely not allowed to be led by Xingchen..."
Two days later, the Eight Kingdoms and the Xuanyuan Tianzong received a reply, all agreeing to build a light rail road. They immediately found Jiang Xingchen and signed an agreement.
The money-making plan was successfully completed, and Jiang Xingchen was also preparing to return to Xingchen. Before leaving, he wrote a letter and sent it out.
And by the sea, crabs, small Circle, Black Ding and Ziyun are also saying goodbye to Doudou Yiyi! (To be continued)
