Chapter 69 Start-up Capital
“There is some profit, but the profit is not as big as I thought.”
Looking at the information that Babata found, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but let out a sigh.
The technology mastered by Jiang Chen is undoubtedly very advanced on earth.
But in the universe, it is nothing.
Even if the 'Alchemy Magic Pattern' technology does not exist in this world, there is still no alternative.
As long as the effect is similar, it doesn’t matter what method is used.
According to Babata's inquiry, in the galaxies near the 'Corn Dragon Star', there is a mecha that must be controlled by a planet-level or above strong person and can exert a combat power comparable to the ninth level of the star. , or similar technological weapons, the price is usually over 100 million black dragon coins.
This number is much lower than Jiang Chen expected, and even far lower than the price of a ninth-level slave from the star.
After Babata’s explanation, Jiang Chen understood that if it was a puppet or other similar technological creation that did not require a ‘pilot’, the value would indeed be higher.
However, the fact that the 'Goliath Giant' requires a driver has greatly reduced its value, only one-fiftieth of that of a slave of the same level.
As for the cost, if you abandon pure metals like 'Black Iron Mother' and switch to alloy materials with similar performance but only about one-tenth of the price, you can build a 'Goliath Giant' The cost is about 50 to 60 million.
The profit is about 40%, but considering the time cost of manufacturing, labor cost, transportation cost, etc., it is not as huge a profit as Jiang Chen imagined.
Unless the purchase cost of materials can be significantly reduced through bulk purchase.
——The difference in price between purchasing materials for one or two mechas at a time and purchasing enough materials to make hundreds of mechas at a time can be as high as 30%.
"But if we purchase the materials for three hundred Goliaths at a time, it will require at least 18 billion in start-up capital. I don't have that much money on hand. Even if I sell all my valuable things, I will still get Don’t come out.”
Jiang Chen couldn’t help but frown.
Jiang Chen has asked Babata to help check. Among the technologies that Jiang Chen can mass-produce and sell, only the 'Goliath Giant' is the easiest to sell in theory and the profit is sufficient. High.
As for other things, for Jiang Chen to purchase materials and make them himself, the cost would exceed the selling price of finished products with similar functions in the universe.
Even if it can make money, either the sales will not be very satisfactory, or the profit rate will be too low, and it is not worth wasting time at all.
If you want to make money, you must either rely on the ‘Goliath Giant’ or find a way to re-develop a suitable drawing based on existing technology.
But the latter, even if it can be done, may not be as valuable as the ‘Goliath Giant’.
"Mining contracting is not good either. There are many mineral mining companies in the universe. The cost of mining is lower than my SCV and the efficiency is higher. I can't compete with them at all..."
< br>Countless thoughts flashed through Jiang Chen’s mind.
Before entering the universe, Jiang Chen had carefully thought about his 'advantages' and imagined several ways to make money.
But after actually searching through the virtual universe, Jiang Chen found out helplessly that all other paths were unavailable. Only the 'Goliath Giant' was the only way Jiang Chen could make money.
That’s it, it’s only theoretically possible to make money.
To really realize it, we still need to solve the problem of ‘start-up capital’ for the first purchase, as well as the problem of sales after manufacturing.
The market price is one thing, but whether you can quickly find a suitable buyer and sell it is another matter.
"The problem of sales is easy to say. The worst thing is to lower the price, make less profit, and sell to those merchants who specialize in weapons. As long as the profit is considerable enough, there will always be someone willing to take over. The real trouble is the start-up capital. Question.”
Jiang Chen thought for a long time and found no solution. He could only try to ask Babata for help: "Babata, I plan to make some money relying on the 'Goliath Giant', but I don't have enough start-up capital. Do you have any good suggestions? "Making money?" Babata was stunned. Next, he immediately asked: "Do you have a specific plan? What are the problems in the plan?"
"That's what I think..."
Jiang Chen He quickly told everything about his thoughts without hiding anything.
Jiang Chen knows very well that to get Babata's help, honesty is a must.
"Your plan is not bad. If you sell it to shops like 'Qibao Store' or 'Technology Weapon Store', at least it will not be difficult to find sales and the profit will be pretty good. However, at least the start-up capital of tens of billions of Black Dragon Coins... ..."
Babata also felt a little guilty: "I do have some valuable things on my hands. It's a treasure, but its value is too high. If you take it out and deal with it secretly without a suitable channel, once someone finds out about it, your life may be lost, and I will also be implicated by you. The value is just right, and I will. There is no such thing as..."
Jiang Chen quickly remembered some of the treasures on board the 'Falling Ink Star'.
For example, the fragments of the 'Red Mixed Copper Mother', the corpse of the immortal god, etc.
The value of these things is indeed amazing, but precisely because the value is so high, even if Babata gave it to Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen would not dare to sell it for money.
The universe is never a peaceful place.
Once the huge wealth that you should not have is exposed, it will be dangerous.
“Do you still have the ‘arc cutterhead’ you gave Luo Feng before?” Jiang Chen couldn’t help but look at Babata.
Jiang Chen remembered that the price of the ‘Arc Cutterhead’ purchased by Qibao Store was exactly 18 billion Black Dragon Coins.
"No, just one. The master originally planned to accept only one disciple, so naturally he only prepared one copy of the treasure." Babata shook his head quickly.
"Luo Feng has two weapons, the Escape Sky Shuttle and the Arc Blade. How about I borrow one to use first, and then buy it back for him after he has given birth to his clone?" Jiang Chen suddenly opened his mind.
It will take at least a year or two for Luo Feng to adapt to the body of the golden-horned giant beast and give birth to a clone.
With a start-up capital, as long as there are no problems with the business of 'Goliath Giant', it will be enough for Jiang Chen to earn several times or even dozens of times the money in one or two years.
“Hey, your idea is very dangerous!” Babata couldn’t help but look at Jiang Chen.
This guy actually cares about his old master’s heirloom treasure!
If Jiang Chen hadn't given up the golden-horned giant beast to Luo Feng, Babata would probably be cursing by now.
“Forget it, I’ll tell you a way. You can’t get 18 billion, but you can get more than 10 billion, which shouldn’t be a problem. But after you make money, you have to take care of it. Peak.”
Babata sighed.
"Of course, Luo Feng is my buddy. I have good interests and will not forget him." Jiang Chen asked repeatedly: "What is the method?"
"You put that ship Heilongshan x81 spaceship for sale Heilongshan x81 is pure natural gold. A spaceship built by a professional, coupled with its history, is of great collectible value. Some collectors who like spaceships are willing to pay high prices. After selling it, they can buy an ordinary C-class spaceship for their own use, and there will still be at least one left. The price difference of tens of billions of Black Dragon coins.”
Babata expressed his thoughts, and then immediately added: "Heilongshan x81 is jointly discovered and owned by you and Luo Feng. Luo Feng must also have a share of the money you make with this fund!"
As expected of Babata, he did not forget to fight for benefits for Luo Feng at this time.
However, Jiang Chen didn't care about this. Babata's words immediately made Jiang Chen's eyes light up and he found a new idea.
