Chapter 628 Arms smuggling and old friends
“Then, two adults, it’s a pleasure to work together! I’ll say goodbye first.”
“Mr. Diego, it’s a pleasure to cooperate, see you again.”
I watched the ordinary but very shrewd mysterious guest and his extraordinary entourage walk out of the Orange Leaf Castle under the guidance of the Marquis. In the reception room, Alwin slowly fell into thought.
It was a coincidence today that I finalized the construction plan of the railway project with my old father-in-law early in the morning.
At present, the new continent is rich in natural resources and everything is cheap.
Pine trees used as railroad sleepers are boundless on this continent, even centuries-old trees can be seen everywhere; as “Vulkan Metal Company” received the kingdom’s arms purchase order, it began to With the continuous expansion of the scale, the production capacity has been continuously improved, and the low-end railway track with a design speed of 60 kilometers per hour can not cost much.
And in the vast and sparsely populated territory, all the land is owned by one’s own, so there is no question of land acquisition at all, and occasionally the wooden attachments on the ground are even cheaper.
The only thing lacking is manpower. It’s okay to have some Anuma slaves responsible for the handling work. If they were directly involved in the construction of the railway, Alwin would not dare to ride the steam locomotive running on the railway. .
Additionally.
Having 60 million Golden Lion’s spills of war in his hand is enough for him to re-establish or re-establish various major livelihood industries in the three territories of Yuanfan collar, Georgia and Buffalo. The completion of the acquisition will lay a good foundation for the development of the economic order in the territory.
Then you can safely attract investment and accept investors from all over the world with golden tickets.
However, Mr. Diego, who just left, is indeed a big businessman with great energy, but he did not come here for investment because he is optimistic about the development of his own territory.
He was actually a smuggler from the sea power hegemony Cyrus Empire, a long-time partner of Duke Marquis, and one of the big clients of Mercury United Trading Company.
Only the sales contributed by his family are close to 30% of the total sales of the trading company.
However, in business, businessmen are all profit-driven animals.
The Cyrus merchants, represented by Diego, don’t mind reselling a large number of cheap products from foreign industrial countries, ruthless destroying the poor low-end handicraft industry in their own country, and enriching their pockets by the way.
Although Cyrus’s financial situation has indeed been poor in recent years, the rich and powerful have continued to be extravagant for nearly a hundred years.
A high-ranking official in the trade department of the Cyrus Empire even publicly declared:
“Let the tulips be content to produce wool fibers, and the Atlans to be content to produce stripes, Let the new continent be content with beaver skins, dyes and sugar, and the Peacock Islands with silk and ceramics.
The only thing that can be proven is that all industrial nations are training for Santa Cruz Skilled worker, and Santa Cruz is the emperor of all nations, and the entire world serves him, and he has nothing to do with anyone!”
This time too, the Mercury partner Got a new order.
If it is an ordinary product, he doesn’t need to come over in person, just because this order requires an extraordinary weapon to deal with “Spiritual Tide”!
And the source of the order is the Army Command of the Vice-Kingdom of New Cyrus.
Small smugglers may have one meal but not another just because of their guts.
The big smugglers who can stand for a long time are all hands and eyes. This Mr. Diego, who is likely to have some connection with the Imperial Army, is obviously the latter.
What he wants is the holy salt bombs, sword oil, and coral steel weapons that are installed on a large scale in Pharretis and even in the entire Tulip Alliance colony
Although the effect is similar As the world First Army is a powerful country, it is not impossible for them to come up with something, whether it is “Fire Sect” or “Curse School” can provide a part.
However, the cost of large-scale long-term use still needs to be considered.
These mass-produced weapons in the hands of Alwin are certainly not the most effective, but they are most likely the most cost-effective in the entire new continent. And shipping is cheap, just retrograde along the Isthmus of Balboa to the west coast.
Alwin finally agreed.
The rule of Cyrus in the new continent will collapse, but not now, nor because of the raging “goblin”.
In the case of the continuous outbreak of this spiritual tide, the vacant land has no value to anyone, it is better to let Cyrus occupy those places, and then continue to suck blood through the smuggling trade.
Just as Cyrus initially robbed the well-organized Azik and Kumar empires, rather than a group of scattered hunting tribes.
Besides.
In addition to the “dismemberment plan” that provoked regional conflicts and confrontations within Cyrus as the last step, whether it was the “blood loss plan” led by privateer fleets, or the “trade plan” led by smugglers. War”, “Overlord Disqualification Plan” has been steadily advancing.
Alwin naturally doesn’t have a hard time with money. Arms smuggling has always been one of the most profitable trades, and there is no need to worry about being backlashed by these weapons only for Spirit Physique.
You also need to consider morality when dealing with the kingdom, but you don’t need to treat yourself badly when dealing with Cyrus.
Olivia, who also stayed here to listen during the conversation, sat gently beside Alwin and poured him another cup of tea:
“It seems that Cyrus is indeed the pressure. Not small. At the end of last year, a large mining area was abandoned, and after a crazy retreat of a thousand kilometers, the vacuum area in the middle has been reoccupied by some natural spirits and Atrians.
There are all the most dangerous places in the entire new continent. The rich land, do we want to get involved?”
Alwin frowned for a while and thought about it for a while, and finally called the head:
“Although everything is going well in the territory, the pace of But it shouldn’t go too far. Even if we have spare capacity for the time being, the inland areas are still too dangerous for production and construction, and the distance and defense costs are too high.
And the resources in the Midwest are for us It’s not urgent for now, let’s stabilize the fundamentals first, it’s better to have two birds in the forest than one bird in hand.”
It is necessary to learn restraint on the road of transcendence, and the same is true for territorial management.
Time flies by.
With the arrival of spring in the 188th year of the Haiyuan calendar, the seaworthy season of the Black Sea is also coming.
Phew—
A large fleet of forty-three ships, mostly flying the Phaletians flag, is leaving the Tezgar current and winding its way from north to south.
On the deck of the Level 4 battleship, the flagship of the escort fleet.
A youngster in a colonel’s uniform and a burly Knight in heavy armor were leaning against the bulwark, chatting very familiarly.
“. Ilya’s ready-made model has been placed there. I heard that the ‘Blackwing Order’ has begun to fight around. Most of the kingdoms on the continent have their own title Knight, but those smaller Dukedom and Dukedom are not.”
“Yes, this is indeed something the church is also concerned about.”
“Ambrus Knight, those who were escorted to Tulip dukedom Have the members of the Constituent Assembly been sentenced?”
“Well, although the official sentence has not yet come down, it is said that the Speaker Jerome will be sentenced to beheading, and the others will probably be sentenced to hanging. There is no difference except a little respect.
After all, they have swept away the entire noble class of Ilya, if they are allowed to continue to live, the kings in the alliance will impossible agree.”
Although it has been a few months since the war of retribution, and their identities are the Iron Wall Knight who belongs to the church and the wizard who belongs to the “Eye of Violet”, they are very concerned about this matter.
This has also been a constant topic among the upper classes of the kingdom in recent months.
“Anthony.”
A beautiful lady of about twenty-five or six years of age, wearing an aqua green dress with long hair tied up as a married woman, stepped onto the deck , called out softly.
Looking back to see his beautiful new wife, the young officer with short hair gave a warm smile:
“Dilis.”
If Alwin was here, he would definitely be able to Recognize that these are the old friends who have been missing for a long time.
The church “Iron Knight” Captain Ambrus, who has carried out several missions together, has no personal friendship but respects his Knight character very much.
On this ship, in addition to the “Iron Wall Knight” Ambrus, who has been promoted to the third rank Great Knight, there is also a Knight squad consisting of twelve official Knights under his command.
The mission statement of the church is: In view of the deteriorating living conditions of the new continent, the pious lambs of Goddess need stronger protection to strengthen the colony.
Whether this is the case or not, no one knows.
The other two on the deck were Alwin who met after joining “Eye of Violet”. The first friends Anthony and Dilis, just missing an Alva.
Suddenly.
The watchman on the mainmast shouted:
“Look, that’s the Montauk Lighthouse on Long Island, we’ve come to the new continent.”
At this time, a line of black land has appeared at the end of the mighty blue waves in the distance, and a lighthouse with a slightly mottled body stands high at the top of the peninsula.
Looking at that place, many people cheered loudly in the ocean fleet that had just made a long journey across the Black Sea.
“We’re finally here!”
“New continent here I come! Oh!”
“.”
Especially the fleet Hundreds of Ilya refugees who were distributed on several merchant ships, thinking of the hardships of coming here from their hometown, burst into tears.
“Gold, silver, land, this is our future home!”
The Montauk Lighthouse, also known as the “Morning Star Lighthouse” on the easternmost point of Long Island, starts from Buffalo It was established when it was first established and has several decades of history.
This lighthouse is a guiding light for all dream seekers immigrating to the new continent. As long as they see this lighthouse, it means that they are about to board the new continent and start their dream “beautiful” new life!
