Chapter 250 249. Technology Changes Life (Twilight League+4)

However, there is a problem with the final warehouse, that is, these tools are not covered, and most of them are exposed.

Therefore, Li Du couldn't pick up the leak.

The auctioneer also knew that it was worth a lot, and the starting price was one thousand yuan.

Li Du bid 1,500 yuan, and the warehouse price quickly soared to 3,000 yuan. Seeing this, he shook his head and withdrew from the bidding process.

The final transaction price of the warehouse was 4,500 yuan, which he felt was not profitable, and everything in the warehouse could be sold for 5,000 yuan, and labor costs were added to this.

The auction is over and the warehouse is being cleaned up.

The weather was hot, so Li Du hesitated and said, "Wait until the sun goes down to clean up."

There is no air-conditioning in the warehouse. During the auction, they kept drinking cold mineral water or cold beer to cool down. If they came to work at this time, they would be too hot to die.

Godzilla is very hardworking and said: "It's okay, I will do it!"

Li Du patted him on the shoulder—his hands were sweating: "Listen to me, the boss, there are not many things in this warehouse, you can clean them up in two hours at most, and work with the lights on at night!"

Godzilla nodded vigorously: "I listen to the boss!"

Hans said: "Cool, Li, you are very good at buying people's hearts."

Li Du pointed at him and said, "You should think about how to be a son-in-law. You are so good. You got a daughter-in-law at the auction."

Hans was devastated, an Infiniti was waiting there in the cool shade in the distance, and Avril's parents were enjoying the cool outside the car while looking at Hans from a distance.

The eyes of the two were extremely eager, Li Du, a rookie in the love scene, could feel it, it was the eyes of the mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law.

When they were about to leave, Hans was intercepted.

He looked at Li Du with help-seeking eyes, Li Du patted him on the shoulder, and then said to the parents: "My brother is a traditional Christian, and he is shy in private affairs, so if you want to say something, you have to Be honest."

Hans almost yelled!

In the evening, the sun went down and the weather finally became cooler. Li Du brought Godzilla to work.

After they opened the warehouse, Hans also came back with an exhausted expression on his face.

Seeing his sloppy and weak footsteps, Li Du was shocked: "Shit, you guys can't handle things right? This development is too fast!"

"Get out!" Hans scolded, "How can I have a brother like you? Damn it, I was killed by you!"

Li Du said: "You have to thank me, Boss Fu, you are old enough to get married!"

"I will never get married in this life!" Hans said firmly.

The two were bickering, while Godzilla was working hard to pack up the items.

After clearing the shelves, the vending machines inside showed their faces.

Seeing the two simple vending machines, Hans' eyes lit up, and he said, "Hey, buddy, get me the vending machines first!"

Li Du asked with interest: "Is this thing valuable?"

Hans nodded and said, "If it's an old-fashioned lever vending machine, then it's valuable. If it's just an ordinary vending machine, then it can sell for some money."

Li Du asked: "Have you done any research on this stuff?"

Hans watched Godzilla carrying the machine outside, and said casually: "Of course, for example, I know when the earliest vending machine in the world was born."

"when?"

"Two thousand years ago, how about it, are you surprised? It appeared in a temple in Alexandria, and it was a device used to sell holy water."

This answer surprised Li Du: "It's been so long? Are you talking nonsense?"

Hans raised his middle finger at him: "Don't question Boss Fu, Boss Fu is an expert in this industry. At that time, the church designed a machine using the principle of leverage. Putting in ancient Egyptian coins can tilt the inner container and make the faucet dispense holy water."

Li Du sighed: "So holy water can still be bought and sold?"

Hans said: "Of course, religious believers are good businessmen. Godzilla, bring the machine to me, and I'll take a look."

The big red vending machine was carried over, and Hans immediately tapped it with his hands, and then started to disassemble the back cover with a wrench.

Li Du helped him open the back cover of the machine, and then some complicated accessories and circuits appeared in front of him.

Hans scanned the nameplate inside with a flashlight, nodded and said, "Very good, this vending machine is worth some money, it's a modern thing."

After pondering for a while, he said again: "I guess this thing can sell for 2,500 yuan."

Li Du smiled and said, "Wow, it seems that we have found a treasure. This thing is quite valuable."

Hans said: "Of course, this thing must cost at least four thousand yuan new!"

Li Du didn't know much about this thing, so he shrugged and said, "I thought I could buy it for four hundred yuan."

Hearing this, Hans laughed out loud, and said, "You are so naive, my good buddy, do you think that a vending machine is just a big cabinet? You put coins in it, and then Coca-Cola comes out?"

Li Du said: "Isn't it?"

Hans said: "Don't be stupid, this thing is a product of high technology. For example, if you look at its refrigeration system, this thing is controlled by a computer, and it only freezes drinks according to the needs of consumers."

"That is to say, the vending machine only freezes the beverages that may be sold, instead of freezing all food and beverages like a refrigerator. The internal computer can determine the amount of freezing according to the sales volume."

"Also, the model of this vending machine is Peak-Shift. Do you know how much power it consumes? Less than half of the electric fan!"

Li Du was overwhelmed by this data: "It's unbelievable, this thing consumes so little power?"

"The advantage of Peak-Shift is that it consumes less power. It can avoid the peak power consumption during the day, freeze Coke at night, and keep the drink cold without consuming too much power." Hans explained.

The warehousing and auction industry needs to continuously learn and increase knowledge, so Li Du turned on his mobile phone to search for relevant information, so as not to miss these things in the future.

Today, his target is not the two vending machines, but the Coke bottle that attracts small flying insects.

If there are only two machines, he will not participate in the auction, so he will naturally miss the opportunity to make money.

The cost of 500 yuan, now it is guaranteed to be able to harvest 5,000 yuan, even if he is worth tens of millions, he is not willing to miss such a good opportunity to make money.

Judging from the data, the current vending machines are very power-efficient. This is because in 1991, the vending machine industry association spent a lot of money to develop devices that reduce power consumption.

These devices are constantly updated to save more and more electricity. In the past two decades, on the premise that the use of vending machines has increased by 100%, the annual electricity consumption has also been successfully reduced by about 70%.

Coca-Cola has its own vending machine production factory, and the machines they produce have higher technological content.

The Peak-Shift vending machine they found is the most widely used category of Coca-Cola today. As Hans said, its advantage is power saving.

The top of the machine is a solar panel, which can be used to generate electricity, which is stored during the day and used for lighting at night.

In addition, this vending machine also uses LED lighting, with sensors, to illuminate only when people are approaching.
