Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty Chapter 981: The transformation of Qiquge!
"Yes, mother queen~!"
In front of the Palace of Lizheng, Li Chengqian did not refute the words of Empress Changsun, he clasped his fists and said.
"Haha! Cheng Qian did it right, why should Guanyin maid be harsh?"
Li Er parked his bicycle aside, walked to Li Chengqian and Empress Changsun, and said with a smile.
Queen Changsun gave Li Er a blank look, and Li Eryou smiled to herself: "Guanyin Maid, I just rode a bicycle for a few laps, and you can see that this bicycle is much more convenient than a horse-drawn carriage! It is light and does not require animal power. If you want to go, you can leave. I believe that this bicycle will not only become popular among the people in the near future, but it will also be popular among officials, and maybe even ride a bicycle to the early morning~!"
I have to say, Li Er really dare to think, but his idea is not impossible!
At the beginning of the founding of the People’s Republic of China, when there were no buses or cars, didn’t government officials and employees rely on bicycles to travel?
So why don’t Datang officials ride bicycles~?
Queen Changsun said in surprise: "Your Majesty, this bicycle is not as stable as a carriage, and not everyone can ride it. I am afraid that a hundred officials rarely want to ride it!"
Li Er waved his hand and said with a smile: "Guanyin maidservant, this bicycle is not difficult to learn. After the officials get used to it, it is not impossible to replace the carriage! It will be solved every morning, Changan The problem of congestion in the streets of the city!"
Although Chang'an City is the largest city in the world today, there are still congestion on the streets every morning. Don’t be surprised that there are still traffic jams in the Tang Dynasty.
Because every morning is the time when there are most people on the street. Some people go to work outside the city, some go to the city to do business, and some rush to school. Of course, it is the officials or wealthy businessmen who directly cause congestion. Horse-drawn carriages, once these things run side by side, it is easy to cause congestion, which is a waste of time.
Li Er thought that once bicycles replaced horse-drawn carriages, the congestion would naturally disappear.
His idea is very bold, and he is not the only one who has this idea!
……………………………………
Three days later, Qiqu's new workshop produced the first batch of bicycles, with a total of forty bicycles. The advantages of the assembly line production model of the large factory were immediately reflected.
"Qin Mansion, Cheng Mansion, Yuchi Mansion, Niu Mansion, and Weiguo Mansion. Each family sent a car to them, saying that it was Benhou, the younger generation who respected their old people, thank them Take care of the Li family~!"
In the workshop, Li Zexuan looked at the neat rows of brand new bicycles in front of him, and ordered Pang Feiji.
"Yes, Lord Hou~!"
Although Pang Feiji did not understand, he still bowed his head.
"Master, this..."
Fu Bo was straightforward, and he said whatever he thought of. In his opinion, bicycle manufacturing is not easy. Li Zexuan gave out five taels so easily. No matter how he looked at it, he was a bit reckless. He did take care of it, but it was reasonable. On weekdays, Li Zexuan was also very benevolent to those five families, and the favors that should be paid would have been over long ago!
Let’s wait for him to finish, Li Zexuan waved his hand and interrupted: “Fu Bo doesn’t need to say more, I have my considerations! It’s just a few bicycles, we can’t look so short-sighted!”
Fu Bo heard the words and had to swallow the words that came to his lips. After thinking about it, Fu Bo said again: "Master, let's put the remaining thirty-five cars on sale in Wonderland. ~?"
Who knows that Li Zexuan shook his head again, just listening to him: "Fu Bo, the remaining bicycles are not sold, but they are all handed over to the major shareholders of the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce. According to the shares they originally subscribed for, the Wang family will divide it. Ten, Cao Wendong eight, Lin Wenyuan, Liao Xifan, and Zhang Jingyang each, four, and His Royal Highness is divided into five! New products from the workshop will be given priority to supply them! If there is surplus, we will give it to Wonder!"
Fu Bo was very surprised when he heard that, "Master, since this way, the status of Qiqu in people's minds may decline in the future~!"
The main reason why Qiqu has become the hottest store in Chang'an City in a short period of time is that Qiqu can provide novel products that are not available elsewhere. Now Li Zexuan intends to give priority to the new products from the workshop. Members of the Chamber of Commerce, this is a bit hurt for Qiqu.
Li Zexuan had already considered this link. He nodded and said: "You can get something if you want to give up. After all, the scope of influence is limited. We need an alliance of chambers of commerce to sell the products of the workshop to the whole area of Datang. At present, business conversion must be made. In the future, the product transfer between the workshop and the members of the Chamber of Commerce will all be handed over to the treasurer Sun of Qiqu~!
Furthermore, the current production capacity of our workshop is gradually expanding, and the shortage of Qiqu will not last long. The overall loss is still within our tolerance~! "
After listening to Fu Bo, he had to admire Li Zexuan's view of the overall situation, but his own consideration was still somewhat one-sided.
"Master is wise! It's the old man's simple idea! I just don't know how much Master plans to price the bicycle~?"
Li Zexuan stretched out three fingers and said: "Selling to members of the Chamber of Commerce will be priced at 300 guan. The specific selling price is up to them to discuss, but the maximum cannot be higher than 500. Go!"
In the 1970s and 1980s of New China, the monthly salary of ordinary workers was 19 yuan. After one or two years of work, it would rise to 20 yuan~IndoMTL.com~ At that time, a permanent or Phoenix bicycle was used. To sell for about 180 yuan, even if you save 15 yuan a month for frugality, you still have to save for a year. Based on the wages at the time, the total annual wage is more than 200 yuan, a Phoenix bicycle, It is almost equivalent to the annual income of ordinary workers.
According to the rate of increase in wages, 21’s wages are nearly 230 times higher than the previous year’s wages. In other words, the permanent brand or Phoenix brand bicycles at that time are worth up to 40,000 yuan in the 21st century. It takes about 40,000 yuan to buy a bicycle.
There is one more thing that should not be ignored, that is, iron in this era is much more expensive than modern ones, so the price of Li Zexuan’s 300 guan bicycle is really not expensive at all!
Because the cost of a bicycle is almost one hundred and seventy or so.
Fu Bo was not surprised, he nodded, and said: "Well! The old man will arrange it!"
"Well! The workshop has to pay close attention in the near future. The demand for bicycles will only increase. This is a blank market, but also a market with huge potential! Later I will let "Datang Daily" start to build momentum for bicycles. !"
Li Zexuan said solemnly.
"Yes, master!"
