The next day, Allen and Edward toured several mines under the control of Storm City. In addition to iron and copper, which are in high demand, there is indeed a small silver mine. There are not many workers in the silver mine, and the output is limited. That's because the silver coins minted by Storm City are already enough for circulation. If there are more, it may cause chaos in the economic system.
At present, more silver produced by silver mines is sold to merchants, and the merchants enter craft workshops, and finally come out in the form of works of art.
When they asked the workers in the mine to temporarily suspend work and called Lucy. The girl walked into the mine, and Blade Runner reacted immediately. There is no doubt that in addition to real silver, this vein also contains a rare mineral such as Thames silver. If there is Blade Runner to confirm, then the value of this silver mine is even higher than that of Storm City.
"From now on, the silver mine workers will be halved, and they will be used for copper and iron ore. Next, we will add to the mining of two basic minerals, copper and iron."
In the city lord's mansion, Alan was standing by the window and talking, and the clerk at the back was taking notes seriously. In the book in his hand, the next development plan of Storm City is being recorded. Allen continued: "The Weapon Workshop, yes, we will gather all the blacksmiths. In addition, the people from Sul City set up a large weapons workshop. From swords to armors, and even artillery components are within our scope of production. Within. Therefore, the demand for iron and copper minerals will greatly increase. As for silver ore, it is enough to maintain a basic output."
"By the way, all the silver produced must be put into storage, and no longer need to be sold to merchants. We will save it for later use."
"Yes, my lord." The clerk wiped the sweat from his forehead and swiped like flying pens.
Edward, sitting on the sofa, drank black tea slowly, and smiled at Allen's office. It was their decision to reduce the number of silver mine workers, temporarily reduce the output of silver mines, and store Tames silver into the warehouse after they had inspected the silver mines in the morning. To realize its value, Thames Silver can only make sense to transport this rare mineral material back to the earth after finding a way back to the earth.
Otherwise, on the planet where the production industry is backward, its role is not much different from that of pure silver. Now the only beneficiary is Blade Runner. According to the calculation of No. 7, as long as a certain amount of Thames silver is consumed every day, it is expected to return to its full form in the short term.
A full-form Blade Runner, whose combat power will surpass ordinary Awakeners. At that time, the Seventh will be Allen's killer besides the source weapon. Of course, Number Seven only obeys Lucy's orders, so its use is still slightly restricted.
However, this does not prevent Allen from giving it priority to provide Thames silver, which is why it is required to stop selling Thames silver to merchants.
The increase in copper and iron ore mining is not only to conceal the existence of Thames silver, but also a substantial need. With the expansion of the army and the trade with Violet Port, Allen needs more basic mineral materials in exchange for more wealth. If you just simply sell mineral materials, the profit will be thin. It is better to gather the blacksmiths from the two places to form a weapon workshop.
Using self-produced materials, processing them into weapons and equipment. On the one hand, you can arm your own army, on the other hand, it can also give extra value to mineral materials. Regardless of whether it is to increase the strength of the city or improve the city's economy, the weapon workshop is an imperative project.
More importantly, this weapon workshop will lay a solid foundation for Allen's future arsenal. Whether it is to produce standard ammunition first, or later develop into the production of war weapons such as tanks, guns, etc., a weapons workshop with extensive experience is a must. It can gather more talents, accumulate rich experience, and it is an important cornerstone for Allen to win future wars.
Under this distribution, the combined wealth of the two cities is disappearing at a flowing rate. They are allocated to the recruitment of various talents, the budget of the army, and the upgrading of the city. After the end of this afternoon, the clerk made a simple statistic, that is, the assets on the surface of the two cities seem to be a lot, but in fact, whether it is Edward or Allen, the assets belonging to them are very small. Pathetic.
Seeing this, the clerk couldn't help but feel guilty. After all, there are several other officials like him, and their property is more than that of the two city owners. This is not a good thing. The clerk is even wondering whether he has to inform a few old friends that he should generously donate appropriately to fund the construction of the city. After all, the two city masters have already exhausted everything for the development of the territory, and they are not very good at hiding their personalities.
After the clerk left, everyone in the city lord’s mansion had dinner together. This was the first true gathering for them after they came to the New World. The table was filled with ample food, from fine wine to barbecue, the dishes were presented one after another, like running water that couldn't stop. Big guys like Bloy naturally let go of their appetites and eat special foods. As for Lucy and other young girls, they are relatively reserved.
Edward tasted a few slices of golden roast, then picked up the wine glass and gestured to Allen. The two quietly left the table and sat down in a quiet corner.
"I have a suggestion." Maritan's eyes turned into a mysterious dark purple in the dim corner, looking like stars in the universe, magnificent and distant.
Ellen spreads his hands: "I'm listening."
"Recently, I read some books about the religious culture of the empire." Edward smiled and said: "The faith in this country is very chaotic and belongs to a multi-faith country. From the **** of war, Sabis, to the **** of textiles, Crowe Sith. There are dozens of gods, large and small. There are even places where they believe in the spirits of their ancestors. This is a very interesting phenomenon."
"For this reason, I have checked the teachings of some of these religions. Take the God of War with the largest audience, most of the followers of Sarbis are soldiers. They believe that they will be brave in the battlefield. Even if they die on the battlefield, their souls It will be sublimated to the Temple of the Fighting God of Sarbes. Sayings like this are prevalent in various sects, and they can be said to be similar. It is nothing more than the soul can get eternal life in the kingdom of God after death. Does it feel that this culture is similar to the Christ on earth Faith is close?"
"So?"
"So we can promote the faith of Christ on this planet. After all, in terms of doctrine, they have a lot in common." Edward shrugged: "And one thing about Christianity is that it emphasizes the true God’s Uniqueness. That is to say, when this belief is recognized by people and promoted, it will be difficult for other beliefs to gain a foothold. As the only true God, God himself is the incarnation of omnipotence, and thus to a certain extent Instead of the function of indigenous gods, people of any faith can pray to them, thereby increasing the tolerance of religion."
Alan sat up a little bit, and he nodded and said: "You mean, we can control people's hearts by promoting religion?"
"When I was free on Babylon, I saw your religious development route. It was also an exclusive war of aggression, the difference was that it was more like a spiritual war. And the facts have proved that the characteristics of the only true **** made Christianity stand out among the many gods and beliefs at the time, and it has developed to this day. You have to admit that the world always hopes that the gods they believe in are the most powerful, the omnipotent incarnation, and can satisfy most of their secular Based on this, Christianity has already determined its status today when it was founded.” Edward shrugged: “The power of religion is powerful, and even more blind. Just think about it, if Christianity in the empire It is recognized, and this sect is in our grasp, what a great power it will be? No matter how you describe it, it’s not an exaggeration.
? "
"With the development of the church, the establishment of churches everywhere means that we will have our eyes and ears in other places. What follows is the donations of believers, the accumulation of wealth, and even the establishment of an army of exclusive churches. A team of fanatics The army formed, needless to say, you also know what kind of power it will be. But the most important thing is that we can win people’s hearts through the church, especially those in high positions.” Edward smiled indifferently: “The more Being in a high position, the more I hope to receive the blessing of the gods and let my power continue. And what kind of gods can be compared to the omnipotent incarnation of God?"
"This is indeed a good proposal." Allen nodded, smiled and said, "Perhaps I should go back to Sul City. Father Miro will probably be happy to go back to his old career. Maybe he did a good job. The first pope of Christianity in this world."
Just thinking of seeing Father Miró for the first time, Allen could not connect him with the image of the pope with the crown on his head.
After arranging some of the next major events in Storm City, Allen also plans to go to Violet Harbor to meet Roger, and by the way, he will also get to know several large business groups in the area, so as to lay a solid foundation for future business development. . But before that, he decided to take the time to go back to Suer City, so that Milo could prepare to train with Suer City and Storm City to see if he could gather the first group of congregants.
At this time, Roger, who was far away in Violet Harbor, had already received the news of Mod Fuzhu that Storm City changed ownership. After receiving the news, Roger laughed in his study, making the guard Jeraf standing next to him very uncomfortable. In the years he knew Roger, he had never heard the slave merchant laugh so hard.
Roger almost choked on tears. He finally stopped his laughter, wiped the corner of his eye with a white handkerchief, and said: "I didn't expect that Maude really lost to a hairy boy. . It seems that my bet is the right one."
"Sir, are you going to work with them?" Geraff asked.
Roger said happily: "Why not, that Allen has this kind of method, he will definitely be a big man in the future. If you don't climb into his chariot now and go up again in the future, you have to buy a ticket. "
"Jeraf, do you know why my business is so big?"
The guard shook his head honestly.
Roger reached out and touched his beard: "Because my vision has always been so accurate, of course this time it will be no exception!"
