"80,000 Ryn!! That was damn expensive!" Riz was taken aback. No wonder so few people were interested. Most of the food companies originated from farmer backgrounds. These companies are still growing and have no excess money to fork out that much. Even if they pay in instalments, the operating and maintenance cost of the traction engine is still there. "Why is it so expensive?"
"Well, there's a lot of parts varied in size that needs to be made. So, the cost naturally spikes up."
"Why not let other companies make parts for us in masses? We'll then assemble and sell it to the market. That way the cost will go down." Riz asked.
Arnold slumped his shoulder, indicating the bad news he was about to report. "I do send people to form an agreement contract with smithies but most of them rejected the offer. To them, the risk is too high for them to bear. They want to stick to old ways."
