Chapter 43

【Super Long-Range Electric Vehicle】!

Introduction: This is a civilian product proudly produced by the Monster Factory.

It has twice the cruising range of ordinary electric vehicles on the market. Of course, this alone is not enough to demonstrate the capabilities of the Monster Factory.

Super Long-Range Electric Vehicle (Standard Quality / For Sale)

Attributes: +20% charging speed, +10% braking performance.

Ye Qing's assets had shrunk by another million, but he didn’t believe that such a powerful electric vehicle would be unsellable.

After buying the blueprint, Ye Qing immediately called his father.

Ye Jiangning was just worrying about how to use the advertising effect to sell some products. Upon hearing that Ye Qing wanted to purchase a batch of electric vehicle parts and assemble them for sale, he was both excited and worried—what if they couldn’t sell them?

"Let's start with a hundred units to test the waters. If we can't sell them, we'll sell them at cost to those electric vehicle dealers, at most we won't make a profit."

"Alright, let's do it your way." Ye Jiangning, who couldn't find a development path for the factory, decided to take a risk.

After hanging up, Ye Qing went online and logged into Taobao to purchase the parts listed on the blueprint that he couldn't process temporarily.

There are too many parts on an electric vehicle, such as the battery, motor, headlights, and controller, which Ye Qing couldn't manufacture.

Actually, he couldn't make many parts, or the cost of making them was too high.

However, the key steel frame structure, rims, brake pads, and other metal components could be manufactured. These were unique-sized parts that couldn't be purchased on the market.

The plastic shell was a bit tricky. The electric vehicle on the blueprint had a futuristic and compact design.

It had a streamlined shape similar to a sports car, which required contacting a professional electric vehicle shell manufacturer to produce a new mold.

The shell wasn't expensive, but a set of injection molds cost 80,000.

Ye Qing gritted his teeth and paid 75,000 for the mold.

No investment, no return.

All the parts were bought from Baoyou Province, and he could receive them by noon the next day.

That night, a large batch of curb stones was delivered, and after cutting, they could produce 50,000 units.

Now, with his money scattered, and after paying a million as a deposit for the curb stones to Xia Muqing, he only had 600,000 left.

But it didn't matter; once the curb stones were processed, he could earn 3 million. Selling the five metal rapid engraving machines would bring in 2.5 million, and after deducting costs, he could easily make 3 million.

With 50,000 curb stones to process, Ye Qing's workforce of monsters became tight.

Just the metal rapid engraving machines alone required two Master Craftsmen, and without them, no one could direct the curb stone processing.

"Let's do it all at once." Ye Qing directly deposited a 200,000 cash check and summoned four more Master Craftsmen and four Strong Laborers.

Now, he had a total of 20 monsters, which was the limit for a Level 2 Monster Factory. Each level upgrade doubled the number of summonable monsters.

At night, all the monsters took turns working, while Ye Qing slept soundly in the adjacent cement room.

As a fiery red sun gradually rose over the horizon, the air filled with a faint sea smell. Ye Qing got up, stretched, and prepared to go to the market to investigate the electric vehicle market.

Facing the sunrise, Ye Qing yawned and rubbed his eyes.

In the east and west directions of the cliff, far out on the horizon,

a construction ship with a crane was visible on the water.

Ye Qing remembered the location very well; it was the direction of the sewage pipe. Now it seemed the factory had hired an underwater construction company to repair the pipe.

"Hehe, I'll just block it again after they fix it." With a flick of his finger, Ye Qing could delay them for a couple of days and make them spend a lot of money on the construction company.

Even the wealthiest factory would have to kneel in the face of such a situation.

Ye Qing leisurely went to rent a storefront in the city, while the people on the construction ship were busy.

The sewage pipe was buried at a depth of about 30 meters, which was the limit for underwater construction companies. Divers had to wear pressure-resistant deep-sea diving suits and full-enclosed helmets to work.

It took the divers several hours to find the sewage pipe. Pulling out the wooden plug was out of the question; they had to cut the entire steel pipe with a torch.

Spending 200,000 to salvage a broken pipe...

The boss of Jinlong Plastic Chemical Company, Wang Jinlong, was almost ready to fall off the ship in anger.

"Boss, take a look at this." The diver, who had met Ye Qing before, turned the steel pipe on the deck to reveal the wooden plug inside.

A whale and a circle of English letters formed a blurry logo, visible to everyone.

"This is the emblem of an international marine protection association called the Ocean Guardians."

The diver hesitated and said, "This association is very powerful. Even many countries can't do anything about them."

"Being able to insert a wooden plug into a pipe at such a depth requires extraordinary skill. Ordinary diving enthusiasts can't do this."

"How did they find it in such deep water?" Wang Jinlong's face turned red with anger as he paced back and forth on the deck, as if there were still marine protection divers hiding in the sea, opposing him.

"Who knows? But they have very strong human resources and equipment, and they have issued many authoritative reports on the marine environment around various countries."

"They might have used equipment to detect the pollution source while investigating the marine environment of our country."

"I'll start production when I get back. I don't believe these foreigners can block it every day." Wang Jinlong, looking like he had just eaten a firecracker, ordered the construction ship to return.

Ye Qing's market research went smoothly. There were long-range electric vehicles on the market, but none that could double the range of ordinary electric vehicles. Rapid charging electric vehicles didn't exist because it would severely damage the battery life.

Ye Qing also went to the hospital. After a period of rest, his father Ye Jiangning could walk, as long as he didn't move his ribs too much.

Assembling electric vehicles required many workers, so Ye Qing asked his father to hire some workers back to the old factory and left him 200,000 as a restart fund.

That night, Ye Qing controlled the Lord's War Chariot to circle the sewage pipe and found that the wooden plug had been cut.

However, Ye Qing didn't continue to cause trouble. Since the pipe wasn't discharging sewage, it meant the factory wasn't operating. He would wait until it started discharging again.

If the entire production line of the factory suddenly couldn't discharge sewage, it would cause a lot of chaos.

Back in the production workshop, under the bright lights, 20 monsters, bare-chested, were continuously processing long curb stones and metal parts, which were then sorted and placed together.

This bustling scene was reminiscent of the passionate scenes from decades ago, where factory workers shouted slogans, sweated, and worked hard for the country's industrial development.

Ye Qing stayed in the workshop, waiting to witness the first industrial product of the Monster Factory. Mobile users, please visit http://m.piaotia.net
