Chapter 611 - 392 Good Luck_3
"But in fact, our pricing is already at a loss; if we lower it further, we won’t be able to maintain the normal production of farming tools, let alone the regular operation of the commerce guild."
Shelley sighed deeply, her voice laced with irony as she eventually added, "The nobles of the Roon Kingdom responsible for cultivating wheat fields aren’t truly dedicated to the planting itself; they prefer to socialize at gatherings, train wizards, and pin their hopes on one day propelling their family to greater heights.
The improvement of serfs’ farming efficiency, planting more crops... these things do not bring the honor and status they desire."
Colin pressed on his eyebrows, also feeling somewhat vexed.
Shelley, observing his troubled expression, wasn’t surprised; she hadn’t expected Colin to be able to offer any useful advice, she was simply venting her frustrations.
"Perhaps, you could try further reducing the cost of manufacturing farming tools while temporarily buying up wheat to create demand."
"When those nobles realize that the cost is minimal but the profits substantial, they will naturally take the initiative in providing new farming tools for their serfs."
After careful thought, Colin offered his suggestion.
Shelley blinked in surprise, looking up at Colin before pondering the feasibility of his advice.
"As for how to reduce the cost of manufacturing farming tools, I have read about a design called ’automatic assembly line’ in a book..."
Before Shelley could fully consider it, Colin continued.
