Chapter 857 Selling Favors

"Then tell me, what are their interests this time?"

Ying Feiyu looked at the serious expressions of several people and smiled with interest.

"Your Highness, don't laugh, what we say is true...!"

Zhang Han paused for a moment and continued: "I have already sent people to inquire. Those outsiders have taken a fancy to the business opportunities of photo studios. They want to order cameras and open photo studios in various places in Daqin!"

"Then what?"

Ying Feiyu raised an eyebrow and asked.

"What else? Isn't that enough? If those outsiders take cameras and open a photo studio, wouldn't they seize the market first and prevent the photo studio from expanding?"

The veterans stressed nervously.

Now, all of Ying Feiyu's businesses have opened branches in other counties in Daqin, and business is also very good!

If other nobles take the opportunity this time, His Royal Highness’s photo studio will not be able to expand!

Although they did not take shares this time, they could not just watch His Highness the Crown Prince's interests suffer.

Of course, they have another purpose in selling favors this time!

"I have no plans to expand the photo studio at all!"

Ying Feiyu smiled indifferently and didn't take this matter seriously at all.

"What? Not planning to expand?"

Hearing this, the veterans were stunned.

More than a dozen photo studios suddenly opened in Xianyang City, and the old guys thought His Highness the Crown Prince was going to do something big!

I didn’t expect that they didn’t want to expand at all?

"That's right! The profits of the photo studio are very low. What you earn is hard-earned money. It doesn't matter whether you open branches in other counties or not!"

Even if it is opened, it is for the convenience of the people.

Now that someone from other places is interested in this deal, he doesn't have to worry about it anymore!

"Then why did you open so many photo studios in Xianyang City at once?"

Zhang Han and others blinked, very puzzled.

"Save someone from always coming to take pictures of me...!"

Ying Feiyu didn't hide anything and said straightforwardly: "With the photo studio, whoever wants to take pictures in the future can just go to the photo studio and queue up, and there is no need to come to see me!"

"Uh...that's it!"

The veterans looked at each other and forced out an awkward smile.

I thought I had discovered something terrible, so I came to report it quickly.

It turns out that His Highness the Crown Prince doesn’t care at all!

"Your Highness, I don't know why you just said that taking photos is hard-earned money? I just clicked the shutter and got a gold. It's so easy!"

Meng Tian asked in confusion.

The other old guys also blinked and kept looking at him!

According to the people queuing up outside the photo studio now, they can get their money back in about two months, and what they will earn after that is pure profit. How can they say they are not making money?

"Each photo is worth a penny, but after factoring in the cost of the shop, hiring staff, and film, there isn't much left over!"

Ying Feiyu clapped his fingers and counted for them.

"Film? How much can that cost?"

"To take pictures, you must use film, developer, fixer, etc. The cost of these alone is 500 yuan!"

"What? Film is so expensive?"

This is something the veterans didn’t expect.

I thought I could get one gold with just one click of that little machine.

"Of course!"

Ying Feiyu nodded firmly.

"Does that mean that when we buy a camera in the future, it will also need to be paired with film?"

"That's right! Every picture wastes a piece of film!"

"I see!"

The veterans nodded as if in awe.

Calculated this way, even if those guys ordered cameras and opened photo studios in other counties, they wouldn't make much money!

"Then...should we still buy it?"

Thinking that every time he took a photo, he wasted a piece of film, and the price of film was not low, Zhang Han began to back down.

"I said, Lao Zhang, you earn so much money and don't spend it. Why do you keep it?"

"That's right! You are so stingy, right? You can't even afford to buy a camera!"

Wang Ben and Kang Anping immediately made sarcastic comments.

"Forget it if he doesn't buy it, we just have one less competitor!"

"Yes, yes, haha!"

Chun Yuyue and Feng Quji laughed directly.

"Who...who said I won't buy it? I'm just asking you!"

Zhang Han scratched his head and made excuses for himself.

In fact, he did have that idea just now.

But then I thought about what I promised my daughter a few days ago, and I changed my mind again!

If all the noble families in Xianyang City had this, but their Zhang family didn't, not only would he lose face, but his family would lose face as well!

At worst, after getting the camera, tell your daughters to use it sparingly and don’t waste it!

"Okay, I've finished talking to the ministers, so please come back!"

After explaining what the veterans were worried about, Ying Feiyu immediately issued an order to expel the guests.

"Forehead……"

The veterans looked at each other with no intention of leaving.

"What's the matter? Do the ministers still have something to do?"

Seeing their hesitant expressions, Ying Feiyu guessed that their coming this time was definitely not as simple as reporting to him.

"Hehe! Actually, it's nothing, it's just... that... the pre-sale of the camera has started! There are so many people, we don't know when it's our turn... so...!"

Wang Ben was shameless, with a smile on his face, and hesitantly spoke.

"Oh! So my father-in-law and several ministers came here for the camera?"

Ying Feiyu understood immediately.

These guys have laid so much groundwork before, but it turns out that their real purpose is actually here!

"No, our main purpose is to report to His Highness the Crown Prince...!"

"Yes! The queue at the camera store is too long, I really can't wait!"

As soon as Ying Feiyu finished speaking, Zhang Han wanted to find something nice to say, but he didn't expect Wang Bi to directly undermine him.

Although the two of them spoke at the same time, Wang Ben's loud voice directly covered up Zhang Han's words!

"Ha ha!"

Even so, Ying Feiyu heard Zhang Han's words clearly.

This old cunning guy still wants to sell favors!

"You have really found the right person. I do have a ready-made camera!"

Under his urging, the production of the first batch of cameras was stepped up. In addition to those distributed to photo studios, he still had more than a dozen cameras in stock.

In order to reduce trouble, Ying Feiyu kept silent!

Now that old goods are looking for it, it’s not a bad idea to sell it to them at a high price!

"Is there any ready-made one?"

"Didn't I say that the first batch of finished products were all sent to the photo studio?"

The old guys all had their eyes widened.

They thought of going through the back door and not going through pre-sale. After the camera was produced, it would be sold to them first.

I didn’t expect that this guy had a backup plan and actually had the goods in stock?

"If I didn't say so, wouldn't this garden be trampled to the ground by everyone?"
