How much an import substitution manufacturer can sell is not only affected by shipping capacity but also by the purchasing power of the public.
Wengji is not an advanced place like the Phoenix Kingdom. The vast majority of the people only need basic food, barely enough cloth for shelter, and a small dilapidated house, so it is difficult for them to have enough money to buy anything.
As for wealthy families such as the nobility, among products of the same shape and shape, they will prefer imported products with higher prices.
If we talk about it seriously, although the quality and materials are similar, the products produced by other people's technology will indeed have higher consistency.
Prior to this, the main end customers of Ruiweile Factory were artisan families and small merchant families who were not civilians. Their number was relatively limited, and their purchasing power could not compare with the nobles.
Especially now that transactions require aircraft to enter the market, in order not to be robbed of more aircraft, the aircraft from the Ruiweile factory do not dare to park anywhere. They can only connect to a limited number of floating islands, and the audience group is even narrower.
But if all iron-producing floating islands can manufacture pot machines, the situation will change.
To sell the Guotuo machine to other places and convert the extra transportation efficiency brought by the Guotuo machine into real money in the hands of the rulers, it is necessary to join the ranks of air trade.
When it comes to being forced to buy a plane, as long as enough people can be united, the situation will become different. Maybe some big shots don't care about offending a few fringe counts, but what if there are a lot of them?
When there are more people, it doesn't matter if the title is low. The relationship network of nobles is intricate. When there are more people, it will easily involve all kinds of big nobles. Even marquis or even duke, if you want to do something, don't do it too ugly. . When the cost of unruly services is high enough, the 200,000 Phoenix coins for a plane will not seem so expensive.
With cooperative relationships, some places where transactions were previously impossible due to lack of local snakes to lead the way will become smoother.
Taking advantage of the spread of the pot cameo machine, Ruiweile Factory has the opportunity to quickly equalize the profit volume before the floating island.
To go further, you need to make yourself stronger.
There are also manuscripts in this regard.
"The Phoenix Kingdom absorbs tens of thousands of people from abroad every year and relies on large-scale production with high manpower density. However, their labor force is always in a state of tension. As long as we copy it step by step, it will soon become an attractive enough area. Absorb the population from the surrounding area and derive huge benefits from it.”
Ruiweile's appearance of talking about the Phoenix Kingdom is not so popular among shareholders, but his explanation based on reality is difficult to refute.
The Phoenix Kingdom has risen so fast that the outside world even thinks that even Fatel dare not take action anymore. It is said that no one has studied the route they are taking. It is impossible, but no one who can really understand it has seen it. Maybe somewhere There will be.
Ruiweile relies on his experience of traveling to many regions and countries, and his view of the problem is relatively close to the truth.
Manpower density is indeed an aspect of industrial development.
The high efficiency of machine production can attract manpower at a much higher cost than farming, and the concentration of manpower will increase the local population density. Even if it is only a factory with 2,000 people, including their families, for a small town with a few thousand people, It is also enough to increase population density.
The increase in population density will bring new business opportunities. Some goods that were originally unable to be produced on a large scale due to difficulty in reaching customers will become marketable.
"Like matches!" Ruiweile said something that made people feel mindless.
"Matches?" A certain shareholder used an interrogative form and took out a small box from his pocket, "This?"
Rui Weile nodded and reached out to borrow it: "Lend it to me. By the way, how much did it cost?"
"...Triangle." Wengji's new coins are also in the form of yuan and jiao cents, but the Phoenix coins are more used here on Baisha Floating Island, especially those with money and connections.
Ruiweile nodded, pulled out a match from it, showed it, and asked the shareholders: "A match can be sold for less than 5 cents in Phoenix Kingdom, why can it be sold for 3 cents here?"
"Isn't it because of the increased price of air trade?"
"No, it's the population density and average income." He took out more matches from the box, randomly spread them on the table, and continued, "The sales of matches in Wengji have no sales due to fixed-point sales, and the purchasing power in a single area is too large. It’s so bad that small traders have to hire children to sell door-to-door, or have individuals buy directly to make the difference.”
"Isn't it always like this?" There are still shareholders who have never personally set foot on the land of the Phoenix Kingdom, and such people in the shareholders' meeting generally have more status than those who have been - only at the aristocratic level.
What he said has always been true is that almost anything priced above the average person's ability to spend is mostly marketed as a teen pitch.
Of course, there are also sellers who are not teenagers, but teenagers are energetic, do not have family burdens, and are more likely to accept lower and less stable incomes. Overall, they still account for the majority.
Its buyers overlap with the import substitution of Ruiweile Factory, which are various craftsmen, small shop owners, and small nobles who are not so well-off. Nobles with a certain size usually choose to purchase in bulk in stores.
"Suppose there are 1,000 families in a town, and only 50 of them are willing to buy this kind of thing. It would take a small businessman to purchase a batch of goods for a whole year, and the cost of this purchase is almost the same as retail sales. And if these 1,000 families If there are two hundred people in there who are willing to buy, can it support a monthly routine container? The purchase and air freight prices will be more favorable, and it will naturally be cheaper when it is in everyone's hands. If there are several times more people who are willing to buy matches, It can support several vendors to sell at designated locations, saving money on sales and making it cheaper.”
The container mentioned here is an air freight container that the Phoenix Kingdom has pushed not too long ago, and it is relatively small.
The existing air transport system is all promoted by the Phoenix Kingdom, and almost none of it is messed up by oneself, because the more it is done, the more blind it becomes.
According to this set of rules, the freight for a long-term container shipped at a fixed time will be almost half cheaper than a temporary container. The reason is of course that scheduled cargo is more trouble-free for both the airport and the manufacturer.
Matches are just an example. No matter how talented Ruiweile is, it is impossible for him to change hands and turn into a set of chemical production equipment, but the idea is similar.
Expand production capacity and attract population, which will inject economic vitality into the local area. While responding in terms of taxation, it can also absorb a certain amount of production capacity.
Of course, the prerequisite for population growth is that food can sustain it, but discussing food in pastoral areas is really a waste of words.
"Could we also have a chance to become the next Phoenix Kingdom?" Some people thought wildly.
"Don't think too much, first increase the number of armed forces and have a certain ability to protect yourself against the demons and Wengji, and then talk about other things."
