MTL - Iron Armored City-Chapter 130 Mortgage melting furnace
The latest website: Old man Zhou is unwilling to cooperate, and Li Yinguang can't force it.
"I am planning to expand the operation of the newspaper office. I need to purchase another batch of printing and typesetting machinery and equipment, and I also need paper supply. It is not a short-term, once or twice, but a long-term supply."
Li Yinguang took the initiative to shift the topic to newspaper purchasing.
Zhou Shanren squinted his eyes, and said with a smile: "This is a good thing for the old man, but you should think about it carefully, do you really want to expand your small newspaper office? In the town of Mambach these days, there are quite a few newspapers for young and old. , There are big and small ones, everyone seems to have suddenly awakened, sharpened their heads and wanted to get involved in the newspaper industry, is there really such a big profit in it?"
Li Yinguang shook his head: "The profit is definitely not as good as your old grocery store, but the threshold for this industry is low!"
"The threshold is low?" Zhou Shanren repeated the three words, then laughed and said, "Not necessarily so!"
Li Yinguang shrugged his shoulders, smiled and said nothing, "the threshold is low" means that printing equipment is easy to purchase, find a place, find some manpower, take a few photos and distribute it to the public. As long as there are advertisers, it is free anyway. Sending, the cost will be on the head of the advertiser.
During these days, although dozens of newspapers have been added, the number of paid newspapers has not increased, but a few have gone bankrupt, because content charging is difficult, and relatively speaking, this is the threshold.
"The amount of paper purchased is very large. If you are interested, you can invest in a 'paper mill' specializing in the production of paper, and you should be able to make money!" Li Yinguang said with a smile.
Zhou Shanren shook his head: "I'm old, I don't like to make troubles, why don't you do such a good thing yourself?"
Li Yinguang's pupils contracted, and then he smiled and said: "If you are not interested in this kind of small business, maybe I can only build a 'paper mill' myself. But before that, I have to buy printed newspapers from you." paper."
"No problem, let's keep the previous price." Zhou Shanren said.
Li Yinguang shook his head and said with a smile: "Your old price has to be lowered by the boy!"
"The price is still under pressure? Two copper bull coins for one piece. You can go all over the town to inquire about this price. Where can you buy it?" Old man Zhou immediately blew his beard and stared when he heard that Li Yinguang wanted to lower the price of paper.
Small talk is fine, but when it comes to business, friendship is not as simple as it says.
Li Yinguang smiled and said, "Don't worry, the tabloid used to be small, but this time it's a lot!"
Old man Zhou frowned: "No matter how much you use... If you can use 50,000 sheets a day, then the price can be lowered for you a little bit!"
Li Yinguang smiled wryly and shook his head: "Aren't you embarrassing me? Let alone our small newspaper office, all the newspaper offices in Mambach Town add up to 50,000 newspapers every day?"
Zhou Shanren said: "The quantity can't go up, and you still want to lower the price. Are you sincerely looking for faults and destroying the old man's job? You think it's so easy to do business? You need to clear up the relationship between the top and bottom, and keep a lot of hands inside and out. You have to need money, you can’t do things that don’t make a profit, and paper, if you want it, you have to count it as two copper bull coins.”
Based on the calculation of two Copper Bull Coins, a newspaper needs to sell at least three Copper Bull Coins to not lose money. If advertising newspapers, ink, labor, and content costs are all added in, the cost of each newspaper must be at least five Copper Bull Coins. The price of paid newspapers in Bach Town is basically maintained at more than ten copper bull coins.
Of course, selling newspapers to make money is only the most basic profit. In the end, soft and hard advertisements, content promotion and other things are the real profit points for making money.
Even if it is a paid newspaper, it will not completely eliminate advertisements. After all, everyone has to eat, right?
If the "Independent Women's Newspaper" wants everyone to be able to buy and read it, then its price cannot be set too high, even if it is ten copper bull coins, not everyone is willing to buy it.
"Okay, since you've always said that, let's set the price of paper first. In terms of equipment, your boss should give you some discounts, right?" Li Yinguang thought for a while and gritted his teeth.
Old man Zhou squinted his eyes, laughed again and asked, "What equipment are you going to buy, and how many units do you want?"
"Cameras, need five!"
"Twenty typewriters are needed!"
"Printing machines, thirty sets are needed!"
…
After listening to the equipment Li Yinguang and Mr. Lin Lin wanted to purchase, Zhou Shanren widened his eyes and exclaimed, "You boy is going to make trouble!"
With so many devices, let alone opening a small newspaper, it would be no problem to expand to ten.
Li Yinguang said with a smile: "I have calculated that these equipments will cost about four to five thousand silver bull coins in total. Kid Qian doesn't have that much, but I can pay in installments. It won't take too long. I will definitely pay it off before winter. How about it?" ?”
The creases on Zhou Shanren's forehead were as wrinkled as a wild bee, and he kept shaking his head: "What the hell, you can't be appointed, who knows how long you can live, if you mention being killed by others, I don't have money Is it just a matter of time, no, no, no!"
Li Yinguang turned his eyes, and said with a smile: "I can't pay in installments, so how about using items as collateral?"
"Item mortgage?" Old man Zhou's expression softened in an instant, he narrowed his eyes and smiled and asked, "What item to mortgage!"
"How about two Z3 melting furnaces?"
"Can!"
Old man Zhou didn't even think about it, he just nodded and agreed.
The old and cunning fox will definitely not suffer. Credit installments are not acceptable, but it is feasible to use hard goods such as smelting furnaces as collateral, not to mention black-hearted grocery stores, but it is also feasible to go to other places in the town.
"Two z3-type smelting furnaces, mortgaged 7,000 silver bull coins, part of which is used to purchase newspaper equipment, part of which is used for paper payment, wait until the boy's own 'paper mill' can produce, or before the end of winter, the specific settlement amount, no Question?"
Old man Zhou calculated that the purchase of equipment can be more than four thousand silver bull coins at most, and there is still a balance of three thousand silver bull coins. Even if the paper is opened and used, can it be used up before winter?
"Yes, yes, this is the mortgage price..."
Li Yinguang interrupted him and said: "Old man, we are mortgaged, not to sell you the smelting furnace, at most after winter, we will redeem the smelting furnace before spring, so you can't sell our smelting furnace. "
"Hehe!" Zhou Shanren squinted his small eyes and smiled without saying a word. This is the rationale in name, but when it comes to the things in his hands, how can others manage it?
"Z3-type melting furnace, the price of 3,500 silver bull coins is a bit high, how about 3,200? The old man immediately nodded and agreed, and sent someone to collect equipment for you!" Zhou Shanren asked tentatively.
Li Yinguang rolled his eyes. The minimum cost of the Z3 melting furnace on the market is 4,000 silver bull coins. Recently, an "Zhenbei Ancient Battlefield" appeared near the town of Mambach. If there is no accident, the price of the melting furnace should have increased a lot , so three thousand and five hundred silver bull coins are definitely the price of cabbage.
"Three thousand and eight!"
Zhou Shanren stared: "What did you say?"
Li Yinguang said with a playful smile: "The boy said that you were deaf just now, and you heard it wrong. A 'z3' melting furnace, even if it is a mortgage~www.novelbuddy.com~ How could the price be three thousand and five, the minimum is three thousand Eight is not."
Zhou Shanren laughed awkwardly: "Three thousand and five, let's calculate according to three thousand five hundred silver bull coins, this is the head office!"
Li Yinguang shook his head: "The minimum is three thousand and eight. If you don't accept it, then I'll just sell it for four thousand and two." Good paper, I have to be able to take these two 'z3-type' melting furnaces away at any time."
Old man Zhou blew his beard and stared angrily, but there was nothing he could do. Now Li Yinguang insisted on the price of 3800 yuan and would not let go.
In the end, it was the old man Zhou who had no choice but to compromise first, and shook his head with a wry smile: "You boy, you are really dark-hearted. From now on, the signboard of the old man's black-hearted grocery store, I might just let you forget it!"
"It's ugly, I don't want it!" Li Yinguang got up and walked outside.
The reason why the lava furnace on the Old Castle was mortgaged is that there are too many lava furnaces in Iron Armored City, and the second is that Li Yinguang is really out of money and needs some quick money for emergencies, and he doesn’t want to use the melting furnace sell!
