"I remember that you worked at a Wagyu cattle ranch, Mr. Yongsan. Why do you also make puppets?"
"Big brother saw that my salary at the Wagyu Ranch was relatively low, so he taught me how to make a puppet. However, I only know how to assemble it, so I rely on Big Brother for the rest."
"Are puppets very profitable?" Fujiwara Yuu didn't know much about this. In his eyes, these things were similar to Barbie dolls, and the price should be that of a toy.
Takeda Yuzo smiled and picked up the assembled puppet in his hand, with a hint of pride in his tone:
"Officer Takashi, don't underestimate this puppet. My eldest brother can sell one puppet for one million yen. If there is a problem with the puppet, it will cost 700,000 yen to repair it!"
Maintenance costs actually account for 70% of the production costs?
This is totally against common sense.
"One million yen? I didn't expect that this little thing could be worth two months' income of mine? But at such a high price, not many people would be willing to buy it, right?" Fujiwara Yu was not exaggerating. According to his rank of inspector, his monthly income was only about 500,000 yen. It was indeed necessary to go without food and drink for two months to be able to afford a puppet.
Takeda Yuzo shook his head, recalling his elder brother's business and said:
"No, I remember an old customer who had it repaired more than a dozen times! Big Brother also often uses his savings to travel abroad with Mr. Negishi. It's because of Mr. Negishi that the puppets are sold at such a high price."
The cost of one repair is 700,000 yen. Even if it is repaired ten times, it will cost 7 million yen. This money can buy seven new puppets. Why do we have to repair it over and over again?
There is indeed something wrong with this puppet.
