Grandmaster Hunter of Age of Mythology

Chapter 178 The leader of Vita decides to open a mercenary base

When leader Lolika heard that a garrison was being built here, he said that the valuable open space around his magic tower was used to house civilians and provide support for the magic tower.

Thinking about the mercenary site, he felt reluctant to leave. The magic plant planting area could not be moved, and the mining area was too bad and almost uninhabitable, so he looked hesitant.

Mercenary bases are usually places where mercenaries gather, live and perform tasks. The location of a mercenary base may take into account a variety of factors, such as the concealment of the geographical location to avoid enemy attacks, or proximity to resource-rich areas for easy access to supplies.

In appearance, the mercenary station must be surrounded by tall walls, with sturdy gates and watchtowers. The internal architectural styles are different, with dormitories for mercenaries to rest, spacious training grounds, and warehouses for storing weapons and equipment.

The functional divisions are clear. There is a task release hall for mercenaries to choose tasks that suit them; there is also a tavern for mercenaries to relax, entertain and exchange information.

In terms of management, there are usually strict hierarchies and rules to ensure order and discipline.

Some mercenary bases may also have a dedicated medical area to provide treatment for injured mercenaries. At the same time, there may be magic circles or fortifications to enhance the defense capabilities of the base.

Mercenary bases like Blaney will be blessed with magical elements, such as magic barriers to protect the base and magic teleportation arrays to facilitate travel.

In order to accommodate the magicians, there must be training areas, libraries, laboratories, workshops, and shops, and they cannot be perfunctory, the environment must be elegant and the facilities must be sophisticated.

The leader said: "Blaine, this kind of business can be done in the mercenary base, but the land resources in the exclusive area of ​​​​Witta are scarce. I can't give you at least ten acres of land."

"Leader, if we open a base in my homeland, it will not be a problem to ask the king for land, but we will not be able to recruit people on the Magic Island, and no one will be willing to go to other places to work or study, so there is no point in opening a mercenary base."

"That makes sense. It can indeed be done. Some of Viteta's trivial matters require mercenaries to do, so it can be said that there is no shortage of business. Viteta is willing to make money for your team. As long as the task is completed well, it will be very convenient for Viteta..."

"Leader, what I mean is to demolish the civilian villages and rebuild them and move them to other places. I will pay for it, okay!"

"You are so brave. Civilians also have dignity. They cannot be arranged to build villages in mining areas. This matter cannot be discussed. Only when there are more civilians can the region have vitality and prosperity. Although they are humble, everyone is equal and should not be neglected."

Bryney suddenly had an idea and came up with a plan: "Leader, how about buying a piece of land from other magic towers? Mercenaries can expand their business to the entire magic island. They are not picky about places, as long as they are not too far from the Witte Tower!"

"Is that so? You can consider it. Anyway, Viteta will be given priority in missions. Although mercenaries are supposed to be neutral, for me, Viteta's interests always come first!" the leader said in a firm tone.

"Of course. Mercenaries can refuse requests because they are not strong enough. It is not against the rules. However, if they do so, the credibility of the mercenary base will be affected and greatly reduced." Blaney nodded to show his understanding.

"What are you afraid of? It is enough for you to just take business from Witte Tower. You don't have to care what other magic towers think. All our colleagues in Witte Tower also have various tasks that need help, and they are also a good source of income." The leader waved his hand nonchalantly.

After some discussion, the leader agreed to help find a base for the mercenaries and said that spending money to buy a piece of land should not be a problem. As long as the price is right, it will be both beneficial and harmless to Viteta, and they can just look for a piece of land on the scale of ten acres.

Blaney had other plans. He wanted to open some shops and build his own ecological economy. Even if the mercenary base itself was not profitable, these shops could bring in considerable income.

After talking with the leader, he returned to his pocket watch shop and continued to spend time training the sales skills of the employees, including etiquette, conversation, art, and aesthetics, in order to improve the experience and temperament of the four employees.

The so-called subtle influence makes them look more noble and elegant. In any case, the salary of the clerk is higher than that of the magician. The higher the performance, the higher their bonus, so there is no need to worry about them jumping ship.

Even if they are packaged, marry rich magicians, and cross the class, they will still love this job. There should always be more reserve clerks, as they can't avoid falling in love with rich people at any time.

In recent days, Blaney resolutely decided to use the unique material of magic cloth to carefully make the Rossi family flags and mercenary flags.

Take the giant flags in the garrison or family castle for example. These behemoths are more than ten meters long and about four meters wide. In order to properly handle such huge flags, it is necessary to use complex and unique methods such as animal skin alchemy to solve the problem.

For example, when choosing animal skins, careful screening is required to select skins with strong toughness and high quality to ensure that the flag can remain tough and intact after being exposed to wind and sun for a long time.

As for the flags used by the caravan, almost every transport vehicle was equipped with a small flag. There were also flags used as guides when the team was moving forward.

The preparations for distributing one to each household were all put on the agenda early. Although these small flags are small in size, they are not sloppy in production process and design, and each one is carefully designed.

For example, the caravan’s small flags will be embroidered with unique logos according to the different transported goods and the characteristics of the caravan, making them easy to identify and highlighting their individuality.

In addition to the small flags on the vehicles, the mercenary base also issued a marching blanket to each mercenary. When they were alive, the marching blanket was used to show the unity and order of the team; and when they unfortunately passed away, it was used to cover their bodies, giving them the final dignity and respect.

These marching blankets are all carefully customized using high-grade beast skins. Obtaining the beast skins often requires dangerous hunting operations, so their preciousness is self-evident.

The number of flags produced this time is astonishing, with more than tens of thousands of flags of various specifications. Such a large number is actually normal.

You know, after years of accumulation and development, it is entirely possible to find a reserve of tens of thousands of flags in the vast territory of Conson Castle.

After paying millions of magic coins, the production of this series was handed over to Vita. Although they did not directly produce these relatively low-end products, their control standards were extremely strict.

This is because having them in charge of this matter enables them to strictly control quality primarily from the source, thus ensuring that every product meets high standards and high requirements.

At the same time, 100,000 blank ID badges were being produced at full speed. In her territory, no unidentified people were allowed to enter, so she had reached the pinnacle in the design and production of anti-counterfeiting labels.

Take this anti-counterfeiting logo for example, it uses a unique magic engraving technology, combined with textures and symbols that are difficult to imitate, making counterfeiting almost impossible.

There are also medals and metal totem plates, all of which are mass-produced in five different specifications for backup.

This time, with the huge amount of magic coins she earned, Bryony spent them all without hesitation, just to save enough to start the image project of the prominent family. Because in her opinion, these carefully crafted flags and other items are undoubtedly the most direct symbols of promoting the family's strength, and can show the family's strength and prosperity to the outside world.

From a historical perspective, many once-glorious families also established their prestige and status through similar methods; from a social perspective, such actions help to enhance the family's image and status in people's minds and attract more talents and resources.
