From Wild Mage to Wizard King
Chapter 395 Business and Sugar
Although the data network has just been established and is mainly used to improve the administrative efficiency of the war committee, the improvement of administrative efficiency has also promoted and accelerated the committee's all-round development.
At the same time, with the successful application of the data network, the committee's architects also began to expand the data network and add new databases and servers to further improve the coverage area and carrying capacity of the data network.
With the development and improvement of the first-generation data network, after the data network could meet the needs of the administrative system, it also began to be used in the Commission's ten-year plan.
Under the coordination of the data network, the mobilization of materials, workers, officials, and extraordinary people is also faster and more convenient, so the committee's reconstruction plan becomes smoother and smoother.
In addition, with Roland's approval, the War Council also based on the first generation data network,
An encrypted, more secure and private data network has been established.
At the same time, regional networks have been established in various gadget industrial zones, burial grounds and botanical gardens to improve scientific research and production capabilities.
Although after establishing the War Committee, Roland established the direction of the committee's common development in the three areas of weaponry, necromancy and botany.
However, compared to the flourishing science of magical weapons, the development of necromancy and botany is relatively lagging behind.
The reason why the science of Ordnance can develop rapidly is mainly because Si Qi took a large number of dwarf Ordnance masters to join him and established a solid foundation of Ordnance for the War Council. Moreover, after defeating the Green Tide, the Gulf dwarfs A large number of dwarfs came running next to them.
With the assistance of these mature artificers, the artifice science of the War Council will develop rapidly.
Necromology and botany were not so lucky.
On the current continent, the only people who systematically study necromancy are the Soul School of the Tower of Truth, and as for botany, there are only elves.
The former did not decline because of Princess Frena as Roland remembered. On the contrary, because of the birth of a new high-level spellcaster Heiss, the Soul School can now be said to be thriving.
Not to mention the latter elves. The Moon Elf Kingdom and the Phoenix Empire are now prosperous. Which elves would let go of their good life and come to join the War Council that might be destroyed at any time in the face of the green tide? As for the wood elves, a group of elves who live in the Thousand Woods Forest, let alone them.
Their situation is not as miserable as that of the dwarves, and even Si Qi, who defected to the committee, had no interest in Roland's invitation at the beginning. It was not until Si Qi saw the future of joining the committee through prophecy spells that he He made up his mind to join Roland.
Therefore, without the help of a transcendent who specializes in necromancy and botany, Roland can only cultivate it from scratch.
Although through the original body surgery, Roland quickly trained a group of death knights and wood apostles who studied necromancy and botany.
However, in the final analysis, the original soldiers are all quick-finished products. They are still qualified as warriors and soldiers, but they are not very qualified as scholars and researchers. They still need time to continue learning and training.
Therefore, even if some death knights and wooden apostles are turned into scholars, they have only just learned the extraordinary knowledge and various materials provided by Roland until now.
Although there are some small innovations, like the Mechanic, it is still a bit immature to come up with Unit Zero, data network, or even start the Rainbow Project.
However, after the establishment of the data network, their scientific research capabilities have also been improved, and now they have begun to start some scientific research projects tentatively.
Since it was their first time, the Necromancers were more cautious and started a small project called the Undead Mine. The purpose of the research was to research and design a manpower-saving, undead, and automated mining method.
The Wooden Apostles were a little more radical. Based on the theory copied from Roland's memory, they started a project called the Immortality Project.
The longevity project, as the name suggests, is to explore and study ways to extend life. Although it is a bit radical to study this as the first project, the goal set by the Wood Apostle is not particularly radical. If you can extend your life a little, you will win.
If you only extend your life by seven or eight years, this is not impossible.
In the spirit of encouragement, Roland also agreed to their first proactive scientific research project.
After agreeing to these two projects, Roland only occasionally dealt with some miscellaneous problems encountered in the committee's reconstruction plan.
The entire war committee has devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the construction and development of the committee. There are large-scale construction projects in various parts of the committee and it looks like it is prospering.
In August of the same year, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs reached an agreement with the Silver Empire and two envoys sent by the Silver Emperor and the Silver Family respectively, successfully opening up trade with the Silver Empire.
At the end of August of the same year, the pioneering corps headed by the War Commission to the buffer zone successfully occupied various important nodes and established a rudimentary border line connected to each other.
At the same time, with the efforts of the Pioneer Corps, several permanent safe passages connecting East and West Nar were successfully opened.
As the committee opened up the official channels of the Silver Empire and opened up permanent safe passages, commercial trade between East and West Nar began to increase rapidly.
Merchants continuously transport large amounts of raw materials and low-grade and cheap extraordinary materials from Xinar to Dongnar, and then purchase a large amount of luxury goods and a large amount of cheap syrup from Dongnar, and then continue to transport them one by one. Pull back Sinar.
Although magical weapons have always been discriminated against due to the suppression of Sinar casters, this does not mean that magical weapons are not good things.
Due to the existence of the dwarf free city in the Silver Empire, gadget products have actually been circulating in the Silver Empire.
In addition to the fact that most schools in the Tower of Truth are against strange weapons, the human nobles in Sinar are still very happy to use strange weapons. After all, strange weapons are really easy to use, and various civilian strange weapons can make their lives easier. More convenient and comfortable.
Although the magic weapon technique does not seem to be very popular in Xinar, in fact, as long as the magic weapon products appear on the market, they basically disappear instantly.
In fact, many silver nobles use strange weapons as traditional magic props. Anyway, unless they are just inspected carefully, they don't look any different.
Moreover, since the dwarf artificer has not yet developed an assembly line, every artificer product needs to be manufactured by the artificer himself. Even some relatively simple artificer products require an artificer apprentice to manufacture them.
In addition, the Silver Empire restricts the development and expansion of the Free City of the Dwarfs. Therefore, the output of gadgets in the Free City of the Dwarfs is not high, and gadget products have always been considered luxuries in Sinar.
And this is the opportunity for the committee.
After an on-site inspection by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the cheap gadgets originally planned to be exported by the War Committee were replaced by luxury gadgets needed by the Sinar nobles.
The main reason is that most of the nobles of Sinar have little interest in cheap agricultural tools and gadgets that can improve farmers' productivity. They prefer entertainment products for their own enjoyment.
Therefore, the committee naturally followed suit. After all, the real rich people in Sinar were these noble lords.
In order to better plunder wealth from them, Roland personally went to work and designed a series of luxury brands based on the hierarchy of citizens, extraordinary people, and nobles. At the same time, he also spent money to bribe bards from all over Sinar. Start touting these brands.
With this series of small tricks, the committee's gadget products successfully became famous and entered the gadget market of the Silver Empire.
In addition to magical products, the War Council also began to sell fantasy silk.
The high quality Dream Silk stays, while the lower quality Dream Silk is exported to Sinar.
As a high-end luxury product even in the future, even low-quality Fantasy Silk can easily open up Sinar's trade routes.
Under the fierce competition from spellcasters and nobles, the price of fantasy silk is crazy.
Even later, the fantasy silk exported by the committee was bartered and could only be exchanged for extraordinary materials.
Of course, these are not the main export commodities of the committee. After all, in this era, the market for luxury goods is so big, and export volume must be controlled to ensure the quality of luxury goods. Only so many can be exported in a year.
Moreover, after all, fancy weapons and fantasy silk are not consumables. If they are well preserved, they can be used for a long time.
Therefore, the main export product of the committee is sugar. Sugar is so good that when it reaches the caster,
From nobles to ordinary people, who wouldn't like to take a bite of something sweet?
From crystal clear, high-quality sugar that is designed to trap spellcasters, and nobles, to ordinary, watered-down, cheap low-quality sugar, the committee has everything and can meet almost everyone's requirements.
Whether it's gold coins from nobles, silver coins from the burghers, or copper coins from the lower classes, the War Committee wants them all.
Any intelligent life form is born with a thirst for sugar. Therefore, although the War Council dumped countless syrups on Sinar, the committee was unable to satisfy the Sinar people's thirst for sugar.
Sinar is like a black hole, eating up all the syrup that the committee exports.
Although Roland did not export all the sugar to Sinar, with just half of the syrup production capacity of the newly built gadget industrial zone, it crushed Sinar's sugar industry with one blow.
How can the handicraft workshop in this area compare to the assembly line of odd equipment?
Facing the committee's dumping, they could only struggle to support themselves. If the committee's output hadn't been enough to fill the entire Sinar and they could still sell at a lower price, they would have died.
Countless wealth was transferred to the council through the sugar trade, giving new impetus to the council's reconstruction plans.
The income from the sugar trade is even dozens of times higher than the sum of all the committee's luxury goods. Moreover, unlike the purchase and sale of luxury goods, sugar, as a consumable product, is a sustainable income, and this is not the result of the sugar trade. limit.
According to the conservative calculations of the Ministry of Finance, if the maximum income obtained by the War Commission from the sugar trade is converted into food stamps, it will most likely be 30 million yuan a year.
After calculating this huge number, the Ministry of Finance of the War Commission strongly requested that all syrup be exported. With such an astonishing number, one day less earned is a huge loss.
In this regard, Roland naturally refused categorically and produced cheap candy, which could not be given only to Sinar.
Our committee must also try it, and it will be cheaper and there are many more varieties.
Due to transportation and commercial difficulties, the committee directly sold highly concentrated syrups to the Chamber of Commerce in Sinar at a high price. The committee did not care how they sold them in Sinar, even if they were directly diluted with sugar water.
But the committee could not do this. Under Roland's orders and his personal involvement,
various processed foods of syrups were created.
Therefore, half of all the syrups produced by the committee were not exported, but processed into various foods, some of which were distributed as welfare to government and military members, and some were sold within the committee. Moreover, the internal price was only one-tenth of the export price of ordinary syrup.
In response, the Ministry of Finance expressed serious protest, and Roland said that the protest was invalid.
Even if the Minister of Finance came to Roland, Roland did not agree to their request.
It was enough to have enough money. The War Committee was not in urgent need of anything now. Why sell so much sugar? It would be better to keep half and improve the happiness of the committee.
In response, the War Committee was well received. Who would not like to eat something sweet after a day of hard work?
Even the protesting members of the Ministry of Finance ate the free desserts provided to them.
In this boring era, sugar used to be a luxury item that only nobles could occasionally have, almost equivalent to spices.
Honey and fruit are the main desserts used in ordinary dishes, and honey is also an expensive commodity. For some dying nobles, a bottle of honey is already a precious legacy that is enough to be specifically explained.
The lower and middle-class civilians may not be able to eat a bite of sugar from birth to death. Even the extraordinary people,
the nobles, except for the top few people, the rest cannot eat sugar freely. In this case, who can resist the temptation of sugar?
Even Roland, after several years, will feel extremely satisfied when he eats a bite of sugar again,
not to mention other people, who can not be confused when they can eat a bite of the dessert carefully processed by the committee.
Even Odin, the former top noble in Donnar, could not resist the temptation of desserts, and all his salary was spent on high-end desserts.
Therefore, the sugar within the committee is in short supply and can only be limited.
Under such circumstances, the expansion of sugar beets submitted by the Ministry of Agriculture and the expansion of industrial zones submitted by the newly established Ministry of Industry passed the review of the Administrative Department and the Executive Committee in less than half a day.
Faced with the desire for sugar from the War Committee, Roland readily approved their projects.
As the chairman, Roland was embarrassed to open a back door for himself, so the share Roland could get was limited.
Although it was his own decision, Roland still had to say: the purchase limit is too disgusting.
