Chapter 43: The Monster Factory’s first product

Translated by me, edited by Fade.

[Super long distance electric scooter]!

Info: A Monster Factory’s proud civilian use product.

It is just a regular electric scooter with twice the milage of those on the market. Of course just with this point alone it clearly isn’t enough to show off the Monster Factory’s superiority.

Super long distance electric scooter (Quality: Normal, Saleable)

Properties:

-Charge speed +20%

-Braking performance +10%

100,000 investment, but with these outrageous properties, Ye Qing has no doubt that these scooters won’t sell.

Having purchased the blueprint, Ye Qing immediately gave his father a call.

At this moment, Ye Jiangning is contemplating how to use this advertisement opportunity to sell some products. As soon as he heard that Ye QIng is going to order scooter parts and assemble them himself, not only is he interested, but he is also worried about not being able to sell any.

“Let’s assemble 100 to test the waters. If they can’t be sold then just sell them to the deals at the manufacturing cost and we don’t lose a penny.”

“Sure, let’s go with that.” Ye Jiangning, who still can’t find a new path for the factory, clenched his teeth and made a gamble.

Hanging up the call, Ye Qing immediately went online and searched for all the parts listed on the blueprint that he couldn’t produce.

The parts needed to make a scooter are simply too much. Battery, electric motor, front lights, and the control systems were all parts that Ye Qing can’t make.

To be honest there were just too many parts that he either couldn’t make or are too costly to make.

However the important parts of the electric scooter; like the steel frame, wheel hub, brake disks, and other metal components can all be made on site. These parts are also all unavailable on the market due to their special characteristics and specifications.

The outer casing is also very troublesome. The drawing of the scooter on the blueprint had a very futuristic casing. When put together not only does the scooter appear compact, but also fashionable.

The racecar like flowy appearance, required professional scooter casing factories to create a new model to make.

The casing itself isn’t expensive, but to create a new model costs 80,000.

Biting his teeth, Ye QIng still negotiated the new model creation fee to be lowered to 75,000.

Where is the return without investments?

The components are all from within the province, so they’re all available for pick up the next day.

That night, Ye Qing received another large shipment of stone strips. After all the processing, he was left with 50,000 pieces of curbstones.

Now with him spending money everywhere, plus the 1,000,000 yuan down payment to Xia Muqing, he only has 600,000 left.

However there was no problem at all, as soon as the curbstones are finished carving then that’s 3,000,000. When the 5 rapid metal engravers are sold, then that’s another 2,500,000. Removing all the production and material costs, that’s still easily 3,000,000 in the bank.

50,000 pieces of curbstones requiring carving, all of a sudden put pressure on the number of available peons Ye Qing has.

Assembling the rapid metal engraver took up both of the master artisans. With them gone, there isn’t anyone left to oversee the curbstone production.

“Ah screw this!” Ye Qing, gave no damn to how much he has left in the bank, immediately cashed in a 200,000 yuan check, and hired another 4 artisans and 4 peons.

Now he has 20 monsters under his name. The limit on the number of monsters at level 2 is 20, but this limit will double with each level.

That night, all the monsters were working in shifts, yet Ye Qing is soundly asleep in the next room.

When a flame wheel like red sun rose in the horizon, just as the surrounding atmosphere began to emit its light sea breeze, Ye Qing got out of bed, stretched his cramped muscles, prepared to take shower, and planned to take a walk to examine the available scooters on the market.

Stretching while facing the rising sun, Ye Qing yawned and rubbed his eyes.

On the east side of the cliff, on the far surface of the sea, the vague outline of a ship could be seen. A construction barge with a tower crane is floating there.

Ye Qing clearly remembered that spot. That’s where the hidden sewage pipe is. From the looks of things now, that chemical plant asked for an underwater construction company to fix the pipeline there.

“Hehe, I’ll just block it again when you guys are done.” Ye Qing with just a few commands, will have the other party waste a couple days, and also spent a large amount of money to employ the services of the underwater construction company.

No matter how rich or connected the factory is, there is absolutely no way for them to combat this kind of situation.

As Ye Qing leisurely headed of to the city in a cab, the workers on the work boat were completely occupied.

The sewage pipeline is buried under 30 meters of water. This depth really can be considered deep water works and it is also the limit for those minor underwater construction companies. At this depth, divers must wear pressure resistant diving suits, and a fully enclosed helmet before working.

The divers spent several hours before finally finding this pipeline. If they want to pull out the wooden cork then that’s next to impossible. They must cut off this section of the pipe and remove it.

Having spent 200,000, only to haul up a piece of broken pipe……

Jinlong plastic plant’s owner Wang Jinlong was pissed to the point of jumping off of the side of the boat.

“Boss, look at this.” The diver, who has met Ye Qing before, turned the pipe section around and displayed the piece of wood.

A whale and a logo formed by circle of english letters appeared in front of everyone’s eyes.

“This is the symbol for an international marine life conservation group called The Sea Shepherds Conservation Society.”

The diver continued on with some awkwardness: “The power this conservation group holds is simply too much. Not to mention private businesses, even many nations can’t do anything about them.”

“The skills and technology required to shove this cork into the pipe is beyond our understanding. There is no way for normal divers to dive this deep.”

“I freaking buried it this deep. How the hell did they even find it.” Wang Jinlong is pissed to the point of looking like Lord Guan. Pacing quickly between the two sides of the barge, seemingly looking for whatever’s hiding in the oceans and the conservation divers that were opposing him.

“Who knows, but their equipment and human resources are definitely top notch. They even issued maritime environmental reports for many countries.“

“Maybe they’re here to inspect our country’s maritime situation, and just happen to find the contamination and pipeline by chance.”

“Screw this, I’ll immediately resume work once I get back. I do not believe this bunch of foreigners will continue to stick around.” Wang Jinlong, as if having eaten firecrackers, had the work barge turn around immediately.

On Ye Qing’s side, his inspection of the market was very successful. There were long distance electric scooters on the market, except they aren’t twice the distance of the regular ones. As for quick charging electric scooters, there isn’t a single trace of them, because this will shorten the battery life extremely quickly.

Ye Qing also made a trip to the hospital. His dad, Ye Jiangning, after this period of rest, can finally get out of bed and walk around. It’s just he still needed to be careful of how much he moves, as substantial movement of the bone can still send him back to the operating table.

Assembling the electric scooters requires many hands. Ye Qing had his father recruit a bunch of people back to the factory, and even gave him 200,000 as an investment to restart the factory.

On the same night, Ye Qing controlled the M.P.C.V. back to the sewage pipe and found that the wooden cork had been cut out.

However Ye Qing didn’t continue to block the pipeline as there wasn’t any sewage coming out at the moment. This meant that the factory hadn’t started to operate just yet, it’s more than enough to come back when they start discharging again.

When the factory’s assembly line is operating at full power, then suddenly the wastewater can’t be discharged, it’ll affect the whole production line. And sorting through this mess will definitely waste even more time and money.

Returning back to the workshop, with lights blazing deep into the night. The 20 monsters, with their superior strength, brought over all kinds of metal and lengths of curbstone. They continuously processed them non-stop, then put them into their sorted piles.

This kind of factory operating in full swing kind of scene, is really like several decades back, when factory workers cried chants while working, covered in sweat, going all out, just to advance the heavy industry of the nation.

Ye Qing waited in the workshop the whole night, as he wanted to inspect the monster’s first product as soon as it exited the production line.
