We at Ellington are pacifist.
That's right, this is the unified speech that Tang En has been telling Fiona to publicize.
Although plunder is the best way to accumulate primitive wealth, but the effect of wealth on Tang En is not great. He is more concerned about the steady and high-speed development of the world. Is the best choice.
Therefore, in the initial stage, stability is the most important.
We are pacifists. You must fight for hegemony and fight with you. Don't disturb us.
This is a unified speech in the publicity, and after Tang En took office, it has indeed implemented this policy.
Except for the annihilation of nearby robbers, the battle to recapture the Brussels Iron Mine, and a counterattack against Kasparmi's troops, no war had been waged.
Let Ellington be an emerging economic center in others' hearts, not an emerging military territory-this is what Tang En wants to achieve.
Would you like to say what he really thinks ... hehe, have you heard of a trick that came down from the sky ... Ah! Have you ever heard of a strategy called Hiding the Sky?
Of course, all this is not important to Miss Fiona, because under the sudden and violent "niche" of Tang En, she was caught in a sea of happiness by a sudden turbulence. Tang She didn't understand what En said, but just nodded stupidly.
If it wasn't for Tang En's letting go of her soon, it might be that the silly girl would have to close her eyes and muzzle to get a kiss.
"... two million! President Sidney bids two million gold coins! Who else wants to continue bidding?"
The sudden exclaimed voice made both Tang and Fiona come back to life.
"Two million!"
Fiona wiped the honey juice from the corner of her mouth and exclaimed with wide eyes: "If you follow the current trend, don't say 10 million, it may even break through 20 million in the end!"
Indeed, a maximum of five patents can be authorized for one patent. If all of these are sky-high license fees, the license fee for Magic Air Conditioner alone can exceed 10 million.
"Apart from that, President Sidney's courage is really big."
Despite being an enemy, Tang En had to admire Sidney's courage. In the face of this situation, ordinary people may not have the courage to drop two million gold coins.
Tang En's emotion is also the emotion of others at this moment.
"President Sidney, can you earn it for such a high price?"
"Oh, this is not bothering you, so all in all, I must get the first authorization."
Sidney Pi gave them an ultimatum without a smile. They are all members of a business alliance. They also know how bold they are. If Sidney is really determined to seize the first authorization, None of them can fight.
In the end, the first authorization of the magic air conditioner fell into the hands of Sidney for two million.
This relieved Sidney.
In Sidney's calculations, plus the Datang Chamber of Commerce, there will be a total of six chambers of commerce to divide the market for magic air-conditioning. Ignoring other countries, the Illus Empire alone, the future market of magic air-conditioning About 50 million gold coins, the expected profit of each chamber of commerce should be about 10 million gold coins.
After all, the market of the Illus Empire is so large, and the markets that have not yet been opened up in other countries are the real profits to be expected.
This expected profit, after deducting the patent license fee and the sharing fee, is how much profit can be left to attract them to join.
Therefore, even if he bought two million gold coins for one technology patent at a time, even he would feel extremely painful.
Although he has estimated the future market space of Maneng Air Conditioning, there are too many unknown conditions and the risks are too great. If the license fee is even higher, I am afraid he will hesitate.
Of course, he was so confident in the patent of the magic air conditioner before because he had a good personal relationship with some magicians in the Silver City. In order to establish a good relationship, he often sponsored the magic research of those magicians in his own name. So he has a way to hire some mage apprentices to work for him, and then the problem of the most critical magic part of Tang En's technology can be solved.
Before today, he always thought that only he had such a secret way, but looking at the situation in which they were competing for patent licenses, it became clear that they all had their own secrets.
Sidney didn't believe they had come to even if they didn't need anything in this patented technology. None of the people who can sit here is a fool.
In the end, the remaining four authorizations of Magic Energy Air Conditioning were obtained by Baron Bilbom, President Neander, President Ryan, and President Elric respectively.
Several other Sidneys were not surprised, but only this President Elric made him frown.
Because the Elric Chamber of Commerce did not join the business alliance, it is a commercial chamber of commerce. What is more strange is that their main business is very scarce magic equipment. Many adventurers with spare money in their hands encounter the Elric Chamber of Commerce's convoy, They do n’t save money to buy their magic equipment, let alone, the magic equipment they sell is really good.
"Congratulations, President Elric, I didn't expect to see you here."
Sidneypi looked at President Elric with a smile, especially his right arm and left leg, which were completely made of metal components, very conspicuous.
President Elric nodded: "You're welcome. I just happened to pass by. I heard what's happening here, so I came here to have fun."
"I spent more than two million gold coins to buy the patent for the magic energy air conditioner. Mr. Elric made a big deal, but I was very surprised ..."
Sidney asked aggressively, "Is your chamber of commerce a merchant? It doesn't have its own factory building. Where does your chamber produce?"
"No need to bother you, let me tell you the truth. The reason why I bought this is not for the time being to produce and sell, just because I am very interested in the technology inside."
Listening to President Elric's words, Sidney's heart murmured, because it was rumored a long time ago that the chairman of the Elric Chamber of Commerce was actually a wild mage who mastered alchemy, and was always by his side. His metal puppet bodyguard was also made by him.
However, this rumor has not been confirmed, and over time it has become one of the rumors in the industry.
Standing on the top, Tang En stared at President Elric for a moment, then stared at the huge metal cymbal next to him for a while, and then asked Fiona a little bitterly: "Should President Elric Will it be called Edward? "
Fiona shook her head and shook her head: "I don't know. His name is never known, only his last name is Elric, and the name of the chamber of commerce is the same as his last name."
So Tang En was a long time ago ...
This group of gods ... seems to play too much, right?
The Chaos Army is invading, and are you still in a mood? Can't you be serious ...
The fierce license bidding then continued. After the Magic Air Conditioner, the patents for the Magic Refrigerator, the Magic Washer and other patents were also sold one by one. After everyone left, Fiona saw the detailed accounts and looked at them twice. Once turned over, he passed out happily on the spot.
Forgiveness is that Tang En is not shocked and completely numb to wealth. He was also very surprised after seeing the string of numbers, because the patent authorization actually broke through 20 million gold coins and reached an amazing 2,350. Fifty thousand gold coins!
Among them, Magic Energy Air Conditioning, Magic Energy Refrigerator, Magic Energy Washing Machine, Magic Energy Hair Dryer, Magic Energy Kettle, Magic Energy Water Heater and other magic energy furniture patent licenses contributed 18 million gold coins, and other miscellaneous technology licenses were added up. 5.55 million gold coins.
It is worth mentioning that the patented technology of the combine harvester, which has been highly anticipated by Tang and Fiona, is rarely left unattended, and it is quite embarrassing for the relevant staff who are gearing up.
Tang En later understood the reason. On the one hand, the pricing of this patented technology was indeed higher, reaching 5 million gold coins. Although the market for combine harvesters is large and the price is high, as long as 500 units are sold, I can get it back, but ... the cost of the initial investment is too high, and the risk has reached a level beyond those people's control, so they can only choose to give up, and instead choose the relatively broad magic energy furniture market.
It is a pity that it is too late to know, and the pricing has been announced. If a precedent for temporarily changing the pricing is set, those sly businessmen will definitely be aware of it in the future, and it will be very troublesome if they collectively launch a boycott.
Therefore, this price cannot be changed, even if it is changed, it can only rise and cannot fall.
However, the bicycles that have just been introduced to the market are immediately robbed of related patented technology. Although the patented technology of bicycles is not too advanced, the market is large, so many people are optimistic about it.
Of course, there is also Baron Bilboum, who has realized that the low-end carriage market is being hit by bicycles. If he does not want to lose this market, he must actively join the bicycle market.
In addition, there are technical patents for individual accessories, such as metal bearings, damping springs, and other design patents, which have caused fierce competition from many chambers of commerce. The licensing costs for those small accessories are not expensive and the production conditions are not high. Once you get it, you can become a source supplier of related industries, and what will be produced in the future is a steady stream of wealth.
Those small chambers of commerce that are no more competitive than large chambers of commerce, this time almost all the power is invested in the patent authorization of these small accessories, and the results are quite gratifying.
"It looks like your plan has succeeded."
After Fiona woke up, she first congratulated Tang En and then held the ledger happily: "Hehe ... were rich ... we are finally rich ..."
"Look at you as stupid," Tang En laughed, "don't worry, you can work hard after you return ... but don't forget to solve the follow-up problems first."
