Chapter 201: Spend money to buy dragons to do tasks
Xi Tong rubbed his eyes and looked carefully at the steam engine endowed with mortal power.
The mother of all machines: a machine that performs piston movement through thermal expansion.
General attributes: Increase/decrease in size by 1%, increase in solidity by 1%, and increase in efficiency by 1%. Every time the number of steam engines in the world increases by 10,000, the improvement rate increases by 1%.
The mortal attribute of the Mother of All Machines is not very high, it can almost be said to be like a mosquito's legs, but it has infinite growth potential. As long as it is properly cultivated, it will definitely be an artifact that can suppress a world.
So Xi Tong issued a systematic task to Tamil.
Soon, this mother of all opportunities was "dedicated to the country", and the dwarves received a banner and 500 barrels of Erguotou.
Everyone is happy, and all three parties think they have made a profit.
The barrels containing the wine are enough for the dwarves to take a bath. You can imagine the carnival the dwarves had after the 500 barrels of wine were shipped back.
The dwarves know the value of mortal items, but they also know that many mortal items are worthless due to their useless attributes.
For example, if this mother of all machines wants to double its attributes, there must be 1 million steam engines in the world.
How is this possible!
Although the dwarves know that steam engines will have a huge market in the future, they never believe that they can reach 1 million units in a short time.
Even if it is really achieved, I don’t know if it will be hundreds of years later, but the attributes will only be doubled, so what’s the big deal?
As for later generations, "one banner plus 500 barrels of Erguotou" has become a shameful joke among the dwarves.
Because of the steampunk era, the number of steam engines has easily exceeded 100 million, and it is still increasing day by day.
After tasting the sweetness, the silly and naive dwarves excitedly devoted themselves to building the steam engine because they received an overwhelming number of orders.
The goblins hope to purchase a batch of small wood-burning steam engines to cultivate the land.
The Tide Frogmen hope to purchase a fleet of large coal-burning steam engines to install on their ships.
They also asked the dwarves to help them renovate their sail warships.
People in the Titan Kingdom have long seen the dirty big thing on the railway, and are amazed by the power of the steam engine.
So, no matter whether I use it or not, I ordered one for them all.
Tamil has regarded the mother of all machines as the treasure of the country. These nobles and landowners, big and small, all want to buy a steam engine to take home and use it as the treasure of the town.
Some owners of mills, mines, and textile workshops noticed business opportunities and ordered steam engines one after another.
You can set the price as you like, as long as the goods are available!
The orders from the dwarves were directly scheduled for three years, and they had to expand the scale and recruit manpower. Many people who couldn't wait directly contacted the elves.
Although the elves' steam engines have some loopholes, they are still usable.
They were already prepared to be rejected by the elves. After all, the elves' reserve and arrogance were well known to the world.
However, the elves agreed and readily stated that the price was only half the price of the dwarves, as long as they often reported the effects of use.
In view of quality issues, Elf said it would guarantee repairs and replacements within three years.
Then, the only question is how to get a tamed Yardyan.
This cannot be troubled by humans.
In addition to Yadyan, there are also many fire-type monsters.
As a result, all the monsters that were covered in flames or could breathe fire were listed, and many mercenary groups were tasked with capturing certain monsters alive.
Among them, monsters with fire dragon bloodline are the most sought-after. Adult tamed dragon-blooded monsters with 1-star strength are already worth 100,000 gold coins, and even cubs are sold for 10,000 gold coins.
So Tamil took action.
You can buy as many monsters with dragon bloodline as you want, and the price will double!
As long as you have one breath left, it doesn't matter whether you are disabled or not.
Other series are also available, but the price is not doubled.
After Taimu's edict was passed, individuals and groups with a bit of force geared up and started to search for the dragon.
Tamil suddenly felt stupid. Why did he have to travel through mountains and rivers and fight against the dragons through life and death when he could obviously solve the problem with money?
Relying on the small and medium-sized dependent tribes on the plateau, the Tamils have completely controlled the salt trade.
The low-quality salt mixed with sediment in the civilized southern world has been squeezed out of the market.
They cut prices, and Thamel also lowered prices, even directly driving the price below the bottom line. Selling salt to the plateau has become a desperate act that loses all money.
Originally, the salt trade was a means for the southern civilized world to suppress the barbarians on the plateau. Profit was not the goal. Even if it lost money, this kind of business must be done.
However, after seeing the mountains of snow and salt piled up by the barbarians, the lords of the civilized world gave in.
Many human salt merchants changed their identities and took refuge with Tamil's downlines, selling the salt from the Titan Kingdom back to the civilized world.
Familiar routes and familiar hands have just changed from south to north to remember the road to the south.
Those who can sell salt are either ruthless people who can lick blood with their swords, or powerful people with powerful eyes and hands.
These two kinds of people are not something that the little lords can offend.
As a result, the white salt was exchanged for yellow gold, which was transferred to the treasury of the Titan Kingdom through various channels.
Coupled with the income from selling wine and sugar, the Titan Kingdom is already considered one of the richest countries on the continent.
Calculating the per capita income, beggars in the Titan Kingdom have suddenly become well-off, ten times that of neighboring countries.
The country is rich and the people are poor, this is the current situation of the Titan Kingdom.
Money is not the problem, the problem is how to spend it?
Therefore, Eve started a policy of spending money... or burning money, building roads and bridges, dredging rivers, building water conservancy projects, etc. within the Titan Kingdom.
Every time Ive asked Tamil to sign a government decree, her little heart would jump wildly.
After all, the string of numbers on the decree is enough to make any lord turn pale or even scream.
However, Thamel always kept his expression straight, without even looking at it, and just stamped it.
Although Eve didn't say anything, her heart was full of gratitude. It felt great to be trusted by His Majesty the King.
His Majesty the King truly loves his people like his own children, and it is definitely the happiest thing in the world to be a subject under his rule.
It's a pity that he is a pagan.
However, Eve didn't know that Tamil had no idea about gold coins at all.
In Tamil's opinion, only dragon-slaying coins can be called currency, and the rest are all dung.
Now, Tamil is starting to worry about the dragon-slaying coins again.
The number of believers in the main god of the system has grown to one million, and many believers are making successful sacrifices every day, allowing Tamil to make money all the time.
However, this kind of income is too slow and too scattered.
On average, it can range from four to five thousand to seven or eight thousand every day. Tamir has to sacrifice some antiques containing mortal power in order to collect ten thousand and receive the reward of ten thousand dragon-slaying coins for a single day sacrifice.
Although the flow is steady, I can receive the lowest level of rewards every day.
But Tamil hopes to sacrifice 100,000 to 80,000 yuan at a time to see what the higher-level sacrifice rewards are.
"The elves sent a box of scrolls recording secret techniques. Well, that's them!"
