"Back to Mr. Xiaoshen, that is to establish a lord logistics network covering the entire area!"
Qin Qian's fair face was full of excitement, and she began to introduce: "The core of the Lord's logistics network mainly consists of two components."
"The first is to use the almost unlimited trading function between lords to transfer a large number of items instantly! As long as the selected lords from various places are used as point-to-point logistics transfer stations, massive quantities of items can undoubtedly be transferred
Fast transmission of fruits, vegetables, grains, daily commodities, and even building materials and minerals!”
"In addition to fast transportation services, you can also use the storage wooden boxes in each lord's territory as a material warehouse to provide additional warehousing services for merchants. After all, storage wooden boxes and storage space have the same
The fresh-keeping function is far more convenient than an ordinary warehouse."
Qin Qian blinked her long eyelashes and described clearly: "The second and most critical point is to establish trade routes between these lords as transit stations and the local indigenous cities."
"If I had put this point in the past, I wouldn't have dared to think about it. After all, most of the city lords of the indigenous cities maintain great hostility towards the alien lords and would like to get rid of them quickly.
It may tolerate the existence of alien lords, and it is even less likely that they will cooperate."
"And now, since the Xiaoshen boss has brought such a vast area into his sphere of influence, it is naturally easy to do this!"
"I have to say that the methods and goals of the Xiaoshen boss are always able to exceed the imagination limits of ordinary lords like us, which is unexpected."
Qin Qian looked at Lei Xiao with a touch of uncontrollable reverence, and continued to introduce: "In this way, as long as the lords who serve as transfer stations in various locations in this area are connected to the locals,
Short-distance trade routes between indigenous people, the entire network can be formed!"
After a pause, Qin Qian added without reservation: "To be honest, Mr. Xiaoshen, it was precisely because you requisitioned my territory to transport large quantities of equipment that I came up with this idea."
"I see."
After listening carefully to what Qin Qian said, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully and began to ponder in his heart.
"Before this, I have used this method to pass through Lixia in Gelin City and use Su Rusu Mo's territory as a transit point to deliver magic potions and alchemy refined by the Gelin City Alchemist Guild back and forth for me.
Material."
"And just like Qin Qian said, I also used her, Su Ru, Su Mo and others' territories to carry out a large-scale comprehensive replacement of all territories as quickly as possible before the start of this war.
."
"It is possible to establish a complete lord logistics network and carry out such a large-scale comprehensive application, but I have not thought about it carefully."
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao pondered for a moment, and then asked: "Qin Qian, you mean to apply this lord logistics network to all aspects of life, right?"
"Brother Xiaoshen, that's exactly what it is!"
Qin Qian subconsciously stroked her hanging hair and nodded in response: "In addition to its main commercial role, this lord logistics network can also be used for the postal delivery of personal letters and items, and expand other derivative businesses. If
If it can be promoted, it will undoubtedly change the world to a considerable extent!"
"That's true."
Ariel, who was also listening carefully, had a look of excitement on her fair face, and echoed: "In this way, not only can the merchant's time on the road be greatly shortened, but also the goods can be avoided from being damaged or robbed by monsters.
Uncontrollable losses can also ensure the freshness and circulation of the goods to the maximum extent!"
"As long as we set reasonable taxes and collect fees based on this extremely convenient network, it will also be an extremely huge financial revenue!"
"As for the supporting porters, carriage drivers and other staff, they can all be uniformly deployed and managed by the local city government. In addition, the transparency of the goods during transportation can further standardize the business environment and promote employment!"
"At the beginning of the war, we can allocate and replenish supplies from anywhere within our sphere of influence as quickly as possible. It's really not too convenient!"
Having said this, Ariel concluded: "Lord, this is something that even teleporters can't do. After all, even areas with teleporters are limited to a few large cities, and it is impossible to cover them.
Every area.”
"If this thing can be run perfectly, it will indeed be of great benefit."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and said to Qin Qian: "You will be fully responsible for the specific matters on the lord's side, including the selection of lord transfer stations in various places, the planning of trade routes, the formulation of reward mechanisms and other key issues. Be sure to
Think carefully and write a concise and clear plan via private message.”
After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao's mind moved and he handed Qin Qian a detailed map of the eastern part of Leng Yan, and then said: "If you need any help, please contact me at any time."
"Received! Please rest assured, Mr. Xiaoshen!"
Qin Qian took the map with both hands and said happily: "If everything can run perfectly, it will greatly promote the understanding between the lord and the local indigenous people!"
"Qin Qian, in addition to this, the two major areas of scientific research and communication intelligence that have been finalized before must also be put on the agenda as soon as possible."
Lei Xiao nodded and continued: "When this area is basically stable, I will also assign a town to you closest to the Songyin Mountains."
"Thank you very much, Mr. Xiaoshen!"
Qin Qian, Jiang Hao and other lords nodded excitedly.
"One thing please remember, from what I have learned so far, there are many lords who have awakened the talent of territory migration, just like Lin Chuan, there is no one like me here.
Lords are irreplaceable, even if I hand over the city to you, I will send a number of capable subordinates to help you manage it."
A hint of fierceness appeared on Lei Xiao's face, and he said lightly: "I have something to say first. Whether it is the lord of the Xiaoshen group or other selected lords, they must completely obey my orders. If I find anyone
If someone does something inappropriate, don't blame me for being unkind and turning them into powder."
"Don't worry, Mr. Xiaoshen, if it weren't for your appearance, the Xiaoshen No. 9 Regiment and I would have ceased to exist. We will all bear this great kindness in our hearts!"
Qin Qian nodded solemnly, and said solemnly between her brows: "If anyone dares to have second thoughts, I, Qin Qian, will be the first to let him go!"
After Qin Qian finished speaking, Jiang Hao and the other four lords also nodded without hesitation.
"very good."
Lei Xiao returned to his usual gentle face and said with a smile: "As long as we work together, everything will be solved, and each of you will get unexpected benefits and surprises."
After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao stopped slowly moving forward and waved his hand to signal Qin Qian and the other five lords to leave.
When Qin Qian and others, who were full of joy and awe, left, Lei Xiao took a step forward and sat back on the towering throne.
In fact, regarding Qin Qian, who is the leader of the Xiaoshen No. 9 Regiment, Lei Xiao is quite relieved after observing and contacting her for a period of time, otherwise he would not have given her such an important task to take care of, but a proper beating is still necessary.
Very necessary.
Because Lei Xiao clearly understood that even though Qin Qian and other lords of the Xiao Shen Tuan were on his side, just like the subordinates under his command.
But Qin Qian and others are lords from another world after all, and they have a competitive relationship with themselves in a certain sense. They are fundamentally different from the loyal subordinates under their command.
Therefore, only holding a big stick with a smile and giving appropriate carrots to the other party is the only way to establish authority.
"Okay, now that Wangxing City has stabilized, let's return to the territory first."
Nodding to his subordinates, Lei Xiao stepped down from the throne, and a cold-touch return crystal appeared on his palm.
"As you command! Lord!"
All the subordinates said in unison and gathered around Lei Xiao.
Lei Xiao crushed the crystal, and a soft cyan light curtain immediately rose.
Not long after, the brilliance accompanied by the cyan light curtain began to become more and more dazzling.
While his body lost weight for an instant, Lei Xiao intuitively felt a bright light flash before his eyes, and in the blink of an eye, he had returned to the familiar territory.
Standing there and looking around, Lei Xiao noticed.
It was late at night, and above the pitch-black night, there were twin moons in the sky, and the stars were shining brightly.
From time to time, you can see groups of heavily armed subordinates patrolling past with light crystals in hand. It seems to be no different from usual.
However, the smell of blood and burning smoke still lingering in the air showed that a life-and-death battle had just occurred here not long ago.
"Okay, everyone, let's go back and rest."
Lei Xiao slowly withdrew his gaze and waved to the subordinates beside him.
After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao seemed to have remembered something, and ordered to Princess Leng Yan who had not yet taken a step: "By the way Ariel, Jiang Li and Erza don't have their own rooms yet, and there happens to be one on the second floor of the mansion.
There are two vacant rooms, please go and make arrangements."
"As you command, Lord."
Ariel bowed and accepted the order, then left with Gracilaria and Erza, two subordinates with pointy ears.
Seeing that all the subordinates had dispersed, Lei Xiao opened his mouth to speak and summoned Hongye, Rogge, Bai Zhi and the old housekeeper Ward who were staying in the territory.
"See Lord Lord!"
In just a moment, the four subordinates appeared in front of Lei Xiao, stroking their chests and bowing.
"Thank you for your hard work."
Lei Xiao first motioned to the four of them not to be polite, and then asked: "What is the current situation inside and outside the territory?"
"Back to the lord, the battlefield outside the territory has been cleaned before sunset today. Even the blocked rivers have been cleared. All weapons and equipment that have not been damaged have been sorted into categories and stacked in a corner of the territory.
, and guarded by heavy troops."
As the commander-in-chief of the territorial defenders, Rogge took a step forward, bowed and saluted: "After all, it is thanks to Senior Hongye that the cleaning work on the battlefield went so smoothly."
After finishing speaking, Rogge, who had turned gray at the temples, looked at Hongye in awe, as if recalling some terrible scene.
"It's nothing, I'm just breathing fire, you're welcome."
Hong Ye shrugged and responded lightly.
"very good."
Seeing that the Dragon Clan woman in front of him had recovered a lot, Lei Xiao smiled slightly, and then continued to frown and ask: "How is the situation of the wounded soldiers?"
"Back to Lord, because of your good command and the protection of the absolute defensive barrier in the territory, except for the half-elves, werewolf warriors and some members of the magician squadron who suffered some injuries, the rest are intact.
"
Bai Zhi, dressed as a ranger, took over the conversation and bowed in response: "But the two squadrons of great swordsmen in Kongqing Town were seriously damaged. Currently, a large number of wounded soldiers are being treated in the Guangming Healing Center.
."
After speaking, Bai Zhi lowered her eyebrows and couldn't help but sigh.
"After going through the offensive and defensive battle of Kongqing Town and the double baptism of the Death Realm, it was also difficult for Aaron, Bard and others."
Lei Xiao nodded, and then ordered to the old butler Ward: "Tell Rudy and others to prepare nutritious meals for the wounded soldiers, and use all the highest-grade ingredients available in the territory to ensure supply at all times.
"
"As ordered, Lord, please rest assured."
Ward stroked his chest and saluted, and said solemnly.
"Lord, there is one more thing."
Bai Zhi raised her red eyes again and reported: "Although the battlefield has been cleared, the trees around the territory have also been destroyed in a large circle. I am afraid that the security of the territory will be greatly reduced."
"It doesn't matter. Since the location of the territory has been exposed to the opponent's sight, the concealment effect of this forest can be ignored."
Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows and responded: "Furthermore, the lord's mansion is about to be upgraded. When the population increases, it will be time to continue to expand outwards based on the current territory. This will save the trouble of clearing trees."
"Then my subordinates can rest assured."
Bai Zhi let out a long breath and nodded with peace of mind.
"By the way Bai Zhi, I will introduce you to a new person tomorrow. I think you will be surprised."
Lei Xiao smiled lightly and said rather mysteriously.
Needless to say, what Lei Xiao was referring to was Jiang Li, the ancestor of the Yuebai clan.
Now that Gracilaria has officially returned, there is no need to continue hiding it from the other half-elves.
Moreover, in his spare time today, Lei Xiao had already asked Jiang Li, and she also said that she was ready to face the juniors.
"I believe Bai Zhi, Chuan Gu and others will be surprised to see this fallen ancestor again, right?"
Thinking of this in his mind, a look of expectation appeared on Lei Xiao's face.
Jiang Li's current strength is enough to lift the magic seal he had imposed back then.
By then, the overall strength of the Yuebai clan will surely be further improved.
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, several excited exclamations reached his ears from not far away.
