The creation of new alloy plates also caused Su Jing to face a problem - lack of money.
Ordinary TC4 titanium alloy costs at least one hundred yuan per kilogram, not to mention the specially processed new titanium alloy. According to Su Jing's requirements, the first floor with an area of 700 square meters and a height of 10 meters was completely sealed from all directions, and the thickness was still 10 meters. Centimeters or more requires so much titanium alloy. Adding labor costs, roughly speaking, the total cost is about 50 million, which is four times more expensive than the entire building.
Su Jing simply couldn't afford such a huge sum of money.
Fortunately, for Siya Cosmetics, the Beauty Powder has been launched, and the sales volume is very good. The new product of Jialan Cosmetics Company, which was launched at almost the same time, was suppressed and was unable to fight back. One week after the Beauty Powder was launched, the net profit after tax was unexpectedly Up to five million. According to the contract's 40-60 split, Su Jing can get 3 million. When Guo Biting's advertisements are released on CCTV, and when the good reviews spread, sales will probably be higher and higher, and the money will be made faster and faster.
Of course, even if calculated this way, 50 million could not be obtained at once. Su Jing had to borrow it from Wang Siya. Wang Siya was generous and directly advanced 50 million to Su Jing. Firstly, she believed that this beauty powder would be the best choice in the future. 60% of the profit is definitely more than 50 million, so there is no need to worry about Su Jing defaulting on the debt. Secondly, Su Jing cured his nephew and father's illness. This favor is priceless.
"Although it is said that I can pay it off sooner or later just by selling the beauty powder, but if possible, it is better to pay it off as soon as possible. Of course, magic crystals, monster meat, etc. cannot be sold. There are a few magic python cubs left. You can send it to the Perfect Pet Park to sell, and you can occasionally make some extra money by cooking seafood. As I expected, those bad rumors have become less and less effective as time goes by, and now more and more people are rushing to buy them. Joining the breeding farm will allow A Liang and Xiao Lin to expand further. However, these methods of making money are too slow."
Su Jing thought to herself, if anyone knew what he was thinking, they would probably be speechless. Although magic pythons, seafood, and breeding farms are not as good as beauty powder sales, they are all hugely profitable industries, and they are still making money slowly.
"Now it seems that the most promising industry to become a rapidly and continuously profitable industry is the golden camellia."
Su Jing immediately called Lu Qingya. The golden camellia that Lu Qingya brought to the competition had long been spread in the gardening community. Someone offered a high price of 1.5 million, but Su Jing was still reluctant to sell it. Firstly, I feel that it is not safe to keep only one tree; secondly, I am afraid that others will breed and seize the opportunity, so it is better to breed a batch of them myself first. Even if they will be multiplied by others in the future, at least I will make the first big sum.
There are three main ways to propagate camellia: seed propagation, cutting propagation, and grafting propagation. Among them, seed propagation is too slow, and Su Jing does not know much about cutting and grafting. Lu Qingya is much more professional, so Su Jing left the camellia to Lu Qingya asked her to help with breeding.
"Su Jing, I was just about to call you." Lu Qingya's depressed voice sounded on the phone.
"What's wrong? Camellia failed to reproduce successfully?" Su Jing was stunned.
"That's not true. Several plants were successfully cut and grafted, but the appearance... I'll send you a photo to see for yourself." Lu Qingya said, and immediately sent the photo. After Su Jing saw it, she couldn't help but be speechless. The plant has a strange shape and is worse than ordinary golden camellias. Except for the thicker leaves, it does not look like a golden camellia from a perfect world.
"In order to cut and graft, this golden camellia tree worth 1.5 million was cut into shape." Lu Qingya was about to cry without tears, and it was very painful. This golden camellia tree helped her win the prize in the gardening competition. Not only did she like it, but she also had a lot of feelings for it. If Su Jing hadn't asked for it, she wouldn't be willing to prune it to death. I originally thought that as long as I endured it, I would be able to reproduce more equally perfect golden camellia bonsais, but I was disappointed.
"It seems that we can only propagate from seeds."
"Now there is a bigger problem. My teacher conducted zymography and enzyme activity identification on the pollen of Camellia japonica, and found a strange phenomenon. All the flowers of Camellia japonica were female flowers. It seems that the sexes are dioecious. Plant, what kind of camellia seeds did you buy?"
Su Jing was stunned. As far as he knew, most seed plants have hermaphrodites with no distinction between male and female flowers; some have dioecious flowers but the same plant and no distinction between male and female; a few plants with dioecious flowers and only female flowers are called Female plants and those with only male flowers are called male plants. Typical examples of dioecious are spinach, iron tree, ginkgo... But all the camellias on the earth are not among them. Now a dioecious camellia has appeared. No wonder Lu Qingya is surprised.
"Send me a photo of the golden camellia." Su Jing said. Lu Qingya took another photo and sent it over. Su Jing compared the photo with the golden camellia in the yard and was surprised to find that it was really different. The flowers of the two camellias look similar at first glance, but if you look closely at the buds, they can be divided into two categories. If you look closely at the branches and leaves, there are some differences. They should be one female and one male. Su Jing called Shi Qing and asked her to send a photo, and found that hers was the same as Lu Qingya's, which was probably a female plant.
This discovery made Su Jing change from consternation to joy, because this suddenly solved his biggest problem. Since it is dioecious, as long as he controls the sexes and sells only female flowers or only male flowers, he can have complete control. The seeds multiplied. However, cutting and grafting propagation will cause them to grow in strange shapes and pose no threat to themselves. In this way, even breeding once every one or two years is enough to become a stable source of wealth.
With this discovery, Su Jing did not let Lu Qingya continue to propagate by cutting and grafting, but took the golden camellia back, because the dioecious plants had to be placed together to produce fruit. Of course, if you want to make money from it, I'm afraid you have to wait until at least next year. Water far away will not quench your thirst.
"Take out the garbage quickly, I'm a little short of money." Su Jing prayed in her heart, and she didn't know if the prayer had any effect. At three or four o'clock in the morning that night, Su Jing, who was sleeping in the tent, was killed by Dou Lang He was woken up by the shouting, "Master, there is garbage falling down."
Su Jing jumped up without wearing any clothes, jumped out of the tent and ran towards the building. The reason why she was so anxious was firstly because she was excited and wanted to see what kind of garbage this time was; secondly because she was worried and afraid. Dangerous creatures appear, destroy the building or even escape. Currently, only a small part of the first floor is equipped with new titanium alloy plates. It has not been completed yet, and there is no way to protect against powerful creatures.
Su Jing quickly ran to the Bagua Stone with Dou Lang and the cats and dogs. She pressed her hand on the Bagua Stone. The next moment, she disappeared out of thin air and appeared in the garbage station. As expected, a vortex appeared above the garbage station, and a large amount of garbage was being dumped.
