Zhu Di led Song Li and Xia Yuanji out of the Ganqing Hall and asked, "Is it done?"

Xun smiled and said, "Your Majesty hasn't checked yet, please wait."

I took the thick gloves handed over by Zhang Min, then picked up a factory-specific brush, brushed off the welding skin in dusk, and then looked at the patterns inside... Uh, it was still very ugly.

At this moment, my face began to get hot.

I didn't have the time to care about it, so I touched the welded seam with my gloves. Well, it was a bit hot.

Taking advantage of this gap, Xia Yuanji said to Zhu Di and Song Li: "It is true to see that these two steel bars were separated before, but now they are connected to each other perpendicularly. This change process is obvious to everyone, and this is one of the functions of the welding machine."

This is seam welding.

It is not filling welding, so it may be less solid in terms of tint.

But as long as it is enough.

After all, the electric welding technology has just begun and will slowly develop later. Until the Ming Dynasty has the world's most advanced welding equipment and technology, it is also a leading industry.

Zhu Di was very magical and wanted to get started and touch it.

Dusk was startled, "Don't touch your majesty, you may burn your hand if you touch it. The steel is still a little hot now."

Zhu Di retracted his hand a little embarrassedly.

After a long time, the dusk tested twice and found that the steel bar had returned to normal temperature. Then he took off his gloves, picked up the steel bar, and handed it to Zhu Di and the other two, "Look, is it a whole?"

The three of them observed carefully and nodded.

As the Minister of Works, Song Li knew more, "I don't know how solid it is?"

Huang Tun smiled and said, "No hurry, this will be tested next."

After testing series of sealing, firmness, integrity and other tests, Xun finally concluded that it was basically successful, and the slight flaws were caused by the failure of its own welding technology.

In other words, both the welding rod and the welding machine were successful.

In the Ganqing Hall.

Zhu Di Longyan looked at the dusk and said, "Since it's successful, tell me what to do next."

After thinking for a while, "The current welding machine is still a bit huge, and it can actually be reduced and reduced, so it will take a little time. However, both Zhengdajian and train production urgently need electric welding machines, so I will ask Times Group to produce 10 or 20 units first to ensure the lowest level of cost."

Speaking of this, I glanced at Song Li and Xia Yuanji.

Song Li immediately understood and coughed and asked, "How much does a master plan to sell one?"

Zhu Di was stunned, "Sell?"

I smiled but didn't say anything at dusk, of course I had to sell it, would it be for free?

I have invested so much money, can't I pay back the money?

Zhu Di also realized that he had already contributed enough at dusk, and he could not always hope that he would contribute to the government departments for free, so he asked, "Tell me, how many units do you plan to sell."

At dusk, he stretched out his rootless fingers with a smile.

Zhu Di's scalp was numb, "Fifty thousand? You're too dark, one is 50,000 taels. If Zheng He needs ten taels, wouldn't it be 500,000 taels? This is impossible, it's too expensive!"

This is even more expensive than the previous artifact of light.

Speechless at dusk.

The purchasing power of one tael of silver is 700 soft-girl coins, and 50,000 is 35 million. No matter how brave I am, I cannot do business like this. Moreover, this thing is a necessity in the industrial process, so I don’t need to use high prices to restrict industrial development.

He coughed and said, "Your Majesty, you are thinking too much. To be honest, even if it is 50,000 taels per unit, it is worth the money. After all, it is one of the essential tools for building a steel warship. However, Weichen is dedicated to his family, country and country, so he is willing to give in. Weichen's investment in electric welding machines is far more than this number. Selling this price is really not a scam."

Zhu Di sneered, "Do you dare to lie to me? The R&D office you established on the Jiudihe River invested only more than 300,000 taels of funds. With the additional funds and expenses, one million will be the end, but in fact, it will cost you at most 600,000."

I have a lot of information about your Times Group!

Dusk was a little embarrassed, "Sure enough, there is nothing in the world that can be hidden from His Majesty."

Zhu Di snorted proudly.

You guy is a little tender.

Xun had no choice but to say: "Weichen didn't say that we sold 50,000 taels. Weichen's price is 500 taels and guaranteed after-sales service. That is to say, if the Times Group Electric Welding Machine R&D Institute streamlines the volume of the welding machine and improves performance, I can update His Majesty the latest generation of products, of course, it is for old to be traded for new ones. After all, although the old is huge, it is still steel and can be recycled."

From 50,000 to 500, the psychological gap is so big...

Zhu Di almost didn't think about it, "Okay, the Ministry of Industry is going to buy a hundred watches and transport them to Zhenghe's shipyard and the train factory jointly established with Times Group."

He looked at Xia Yuanji again, "The Ministry of Revenue will allocate funds quickly and will not delay for any reason."

He is also a decisive person.

Song Li and Xia Yuanji responded immediately.

dusk:"……"

He coughed, "Your Majesty, please listen to me. This welding machine is too large now and is the roughest product. It can be used, but it is extremely inconvenient. We believe that we should make ten units first so that Zhengdajian can use it. The rest will give the R&D institute some time. When the volume is reduced to one-fifth, we will mass-produce hundreds of units. At that time, not only can the shipyards and trains be purchased, but also the Military Arts Institute, which can save a lot of costs."

Zhu Di was a little impatient, "Where do you have to wait for how long?"

Huang Tun asked weakly: "Call Zhang Min in and ask?"

Zhu Di was correct.

After Zhang Min came in to give the gift, he heard Zhu Di's question and thought for a long time, "As long as the principle design drawings given by the high-ranking official are correct, in terms of streamlining physical examinations and improving performance, if the R&D institute has enough funds to guarantee, it will be effective in half a year."

Looking at Zhu Di at dusk.

Zhu Di thought for a while and felt that it would be affordable in half a year, so he said, "It's feasible, but 500 taels per unit, the price can't be higher, right?"

Don’t raise the price after optimizing, then I will be unhappy.

At dusk, "Your Majesty, this Weichen will continue to add additional funds to the R&D institute. It is also a cost. Since the cost has increased, the selling price must also be increased. But Weichen can guarantee that a welding machine will not exceed one thousand taels. What do you think?"

One thousand taels, that is also 700,000 soft sister coins.

Huge profits.

After all, it was due to the psychological gap of 50,000 taels. Zhu Di could actually bear the price of 1,000 taels. The key was that Dusk said that this thing was a tool that requires knife for shipbuilding, trains and even cannons. No matter how expensive it is, you have to buy it.

So he nodded slightly, "Then let's make up that. The Ministry of Works is planning to buy a hundred units."

I laughed at dusk, "Then let's sign a contract and pay a deposit?"

Zhu Di waved his sleeves and said, "Good!"
Chapter completed!
