Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family

However, after stabilizing, it was still capable of movement.

Following a series of tests, the metal puppet was dented and banged up, a pitiable sight, but Lu Changsheng’s face showed a satisfied smile.

He turned to Lu Xianzhi and nodded, “If we can mass-produce War Puppet Number One now, how long will it take to produce a unit, and what is the profit margin?”

“Father, the workshop is currently divided into three production lines. If we produce War Puppets at full capacity, we can make one every ten days, considering the cost of materials, labor, and overhead, it comes to roughly one hundred and eighty Spirit Stones,”

“In the current market, the price of Middle Grade Puppets range from two hundred forty to three hundred Spirit Stones. If our family wants to make a market impact, initially we can only offer low prices,”

“Besides, if you intend to supply externally instead of managing the business ourselves, our prices can probably only reach two hundred Spirit Stones,”

Lu Xianzhi reported respectfully.

“Such low profit margins; this hardly compares to a sweatshop,”

Lu Changsheng frowned slightly upon hearing this.

He had always known that puppet production was akin to a sweatshop, operating on tight profit margins,

but these profits seemed too low in his view.

Considering the time he spent instructing Lu Xianzhi and others daily in the workshop, not mentioning the profits he would have made from Alchemy and Talisman Making.

“Father, as we increase the workforce and gain proficiency, this cost can continue to decrease,”

“Moreover, regarding material procurement, we primarily use Xuanwu Steel. If we start mass production and make bulk purchases, we can reduce the price by ten to thirty percent,”

“Plus, once our family’s puppets gain a reputation and sales increase, we can raise the prices,”

“However, I think that since we have shops, we could start with opening one in Red Leaf Valley Market to build our reputation and customer base.”
