Heart of Empire Chapter 239: money money money

It's not a happy conversation, but at least, in this conversation after the military meeting was over, Dane at least managed to open up his heart with Chapple.

Ask yourself, if you really want to say that Chapple was put in the position of Chief of Logistics, there is no selfishness at all, and Dane dare not say that. Chapple's status in White Wolf Fort is too high, and his reputation directly affects the entire military group of White Wolf Fort. If such a character continues to be placed directly on the front line to lead the soldiers, I am afraid that the soldiers will only know Chapple and not Dane.

However, then again, the chief of logistics is actually a high position. Especially after Dane delegated the intelligence network, logistics supply, ordnance construction and purchase, the supplementary training of soldiers, and the distribution of soldiers to him, the status of the chief of logistics will not be lower than that of Patience, the head of the army. .

After chatting with Chapple for so long, Dane felt that he had more or less killed the bad feelings between the two of them in the cradle. When this kind of major transfer is in progress, it is still very important to have sufficient in-depth communication with subordinates.

Once Chapple is dealt with, the others won't have any major problems. In this way, after the Chief of Logistics took office, the entire military reorganization plan involving more than 6,000 troops began in full swing.

The population under Dane's territory is only less than 10,000. Of course, this is the permanent population. The replenishment of combat soldiers must be obtained from these populations, but it is unlikely that the other part of the garrison army will be recruited directly from the local population. Otherwise, the total military strength of 6,000 people is not 10,000 The civilian population can afford it. Even if Rotten Wolf Town is a commercial city, it is impossible to rely heavily on traditional agriculture.

There are many troops to be replenished, and the entire reorganization plan is also very ambitious. It is very simple to make a plan, think with your head, write with your pen, and talk with your mouth, but with so many soldiers, it is impossible for Dane to spit out with one mouth, and it is impossible to change from a farmer or an ordinary citizen to a soldier in an instant. This requires training, even if there is a system base, which can guarantee the quality of training and shorten the training time, but all of this still cannot be separated from the support of sufficient resources and population.

And a lot of resources and population.

In the early stage of the plan, Dane directly allocated 30,000 gold coins to Chapple, and there will be at least this number of gold coins to pay in the future. With so much money, Dane's savings were almost wiped out at once.

Fortunately, soon, a batch of gold coins from several territories filled his gap slightly.

There are not many gold coins that Comilla can produce, the most important thing is half of Sandy Bay Port and a Rotten Wolf Town. The total gold coins provided by these two places is about 17,000, accounting for almost 90% of Dane's monthly income. The results of Verina's work were very effective. Under her rule, Rotten Wolf Town recovered its vitality in a very short time after the turmoil.

Of course, this also has something to do with Dane's better handling when leading troops. Even if the barracks were breached later, Patience still guarded the key road leading to other areas from the east area of ​​Rotten Wolf Town, and completely defeated those demons. Although the eastern district was beaten a bit badly, there were no people in the eastern district of Rotten Wolf Town, and the camp was mainly reserved for the troops from White Wolf Fort to come and station sometimes.

Although the income is good, the expenses are higher. You must know that several territories themselves need to spend a lot of money to maintain. Administrative personnel, security teams, and soldiers in the army all need to be paid. At the same time, the construction and maintenance of some public facilities also need to invest money. After deducting these things, Dane can receive only about 6,000 gold coins a month.

This is a drop in the bucket for the huge reorganization plan, but fortunately, he has another income that can temporarily support Barbour's estate.

Dane estimated that Barber was dead, although he did not see the body. But this does not prevent him from directly confiscating all of Barbour's property. The private collection of Barber buried under the mansion of the mayor of Rotten Wolf Town was finally counted at a total of 50,000 gold coins. It can be seen that this fat man who was known for being greedy in the early years has a lot of dirty hands in the town.

With this amount of money, plus the unused property of Morno, it is still possible for Dane to purchase a large amount of supplies in a short period of time

Stay. But in the long run, going on like this is bound to be a dead end.

Then continuing to expand one's power outward is something that must be done.

According to the plan, after the three-month military reorganization is completed, Dane will definitely attack Shawan Harbor.

That battle wasn't just superficial for the sake of venting anger, it almost determined the life and death of the White Wolf Fort forces.

Expansion is the lifeblood. He suppressed the revenge mentality and turned to give the future battle a greater significance. Now he can't mess with Malone for nothing. He needs to accumulate strength and swallow it all at once. benevolent.

In addition to expansion, the strengthening of the territory's own hard power is equally important~IndoMTL.com~ Dane has ordered Verina to immediately implement a large number of policies to attract foreign population. Moreover, attracting people from outside is still the first step. With so many people coming in, there must be a way to feed them. It is a healthy territorial environment where everyone works and everyone gets something.

Well, it seems ridiculous to talk about the healthy development of the territory with Dane's crazy military expansion plan.

But he doesn't have the bottom line in his heart. All of this needs to rely on the newly opened batch of economic buildings that have never been seen before in the third-level system base!

There was no production building before. The forest forces can build moon wells, and the human temple forces can build farms.

Under the vigorous development of Fal'o, many moon wells in Aurianadu have been built. On the side of White Wolf Castle, the construction of farms has also begun. The first step to be transformed is to rely on the The dozen or so villages around Wolf Castle. And once these system-certified farms are remodeled based on the original villages, the food production will increase a lot, and the lives of farmers will become better. This is a golden sign to attract foreign population. At the same time, these villages will also be able to greatly increase the ability to provide taxes to the lord, that is, Dane.

But the moon well and the farm are just the economic buildings in the early days of the two power bases, no, it should be said that they are production buildings. And after the completion of the third-level base, a large number of more important economic buildings will be opened up, which can really bring a lot of money to the territory! To be continued.
