"Hurry up! Put these things on platform No. 2! The supplies behind will be transported to Grecken! There can be no delay!" A dispatcher stood on the platform full of goods and looked at No. 2 on the opposite side.
Platform No. reminded loudly.
Around them, some workers were working nervously. They came all the way from Ireland to work here and receive more business trip bonuses.
The Labor Law of Ireland stipulates that all workers with Ireland nationality who work overtime on business trips must receive corresponding subsidies and bonuses. This is why there are more and more workers in Ireland.
The more you earn, the more respected you will naturally be. Everyone is willing to take a decent job, and workers can now be said to have relatively decent permanent jobs in Ireland.
As long as you can become an apprentice, you will have the opportunity to pass the assessment and review, and finally use the knowledge magic ball to be promoted to an engineer. Then you can get the engineer position allowance, and your children can receive a better education.
Of course, I heard that there are some dissatisfied fools who steal the technical data of the Elanshir Empire after being promoted to engineers, sell it, and give it to other countries, but most of these people do not end well.
I heard that the most typical one was named Schreke, who was sentenced to death, and his whole family was exiled to the Prairie Empire where conditions were difficult and there were no technical jobs to do hard labor...
But it has to be said that any idea that hopes to hold on to its leading technology cannot be based on technological blockade. Standing still will only stop oneself from progressing. Only continuous innovation and development is the best way to stay ahead.
Regardless of the source of the technology, there have been some traces of the industry of Airan Hill in many places recently. Many magic empires have begun to mass-produce various weapons, and some can even manufacture machinery.
After buying the power generation equipment, these countries began to imitate it on a large scale, build power plants to use electricity, and develop their own industrial foundations using Alan Hill's obsolete technology. The world is also progressing, especially when these countries have bad intentions.
Recently, the Magic Empire also has its own powered vehicles, which are vehicles that burn the energy of magic crystals as power. They are not comfortable and more like early classic cars. However, many technologies are borrowed from Elland Hill, including reducing weight.
Shock-resistant structure and rubber tires.
In short, intentionally or unintentionally, Airan Hill's technology is spreading. Many merchants are sparing no effort to promote Airan Hill's civilian technology, and these civilian technologies are also improving the military production in surrounding areas in some aspects.
ability.
Of course, this also has advantages. For example, on both sides of the railway that crosses the Holy Demon Empire, many villages, towns and cities have begun their own industrialization path. After all, importing Ailan Hill's products requires foreign exchange, and exporting some products fills the gap.
Some trade deficits are also an inevitable choice for a country.
Because of this, in order to save costs, Alan Hill handed over tents, shoes and socks, soap and towels, toothbrush gloves and even armed belts and helmets to the Holy Demon Empire for production. Anyway, they were produced here and then shipped to Grecken.
Go, the price is cheaper.
Therefore, the towns of the Holy Demon Empire on both sides of the railway began to become prosperous and lively. Although the pollution caused by burning coal disgusted the aborigines of the Holy Demon Empire, the real money subsidies from the Holy Demon Empire in exchange also allowed them to improve their
living conditions.
"Lift those things into the carriage! Don't be too careful! They are all bandages! Don't be afraid of bumps!" The dispatcher on the platform held a record book and recorded the materials just loaded into the carriage, and then shouted loudly in the distance
road.
The station he is responsible for is the busiest station nearby. A large amount of materials are always transported here, and then other materials are transferred to Grecken. The materials unloaded here are exported to the Holy Demon Empire.
What is loaded here and shipped to Grecken is exported by the Holy Demon Empire to Eiland Hill.
As for the magic materials and precious metals such as gold and silver brought back from Greken, they will be sent directly to Veronsa through here for the magicians there to improve themselves.
War is nothing more than making money. Although Ailan Hill did not make much money in this war, he did not lose everything.
At least Griken will provide a large amount of precious metals and magic materials to reward Alan Hill for stepping forward at the critical moment.
"Hey! Manager John! You are here." An old man from the Holy Demon Empire, wearing a simple robe, walked over with a smile on his face, and greeted him diligently.
After getting along for a long time, the two of them are very familiar with each other. The old man is the elder of a nearby town, a figure similar to the mayor. There are two factories that produce shoes and socks in his town, and he got the
He was qualified to produce military supplies, so he often came to this small station to deliver his goods, and he was very familiar with everyone on and off the train station.
The steward named John put away the record book, tucked it under his arm, and greeted the international friends in front of him with a smile.
In John's opinion, the people here are no different from the people in his hometown. They all live the same life, and they are all the same ordinary. Except for occasionally hearing that there are a few magicians among them, everything else
, are almost the same.
At first, these local people looked down on the foreign Irish railway workers. However, as time went by and trade exchanges occurred, there was not much of a barrier between them. Many mortals working in the railway station went to nearby small towns.
As a guest in the town, many young people from nearby towns come to the train station to look for various jobs.
"This batch of goods has all passed the quality inspection! Be careful when transporting! The leather is good quality, nourishes the feet and wicks away sweat. They are all mountain animal skins that are a specialty in the north! The quality is good!" the old man babbled.
, instructing John to take good care of his products.
John took a pair of beautiful and sturdy leather shoes from the other party's hand, and replied with a smile on his face: "Old man, you are too polite. When did I not find a good carriage for you?"
The smile on the old man's face became even bigger, and he nodded and thanked: "Yes, yes! I can tell you are honest and honest when I look at you. I just like to make friends like you! Come to my house for a cup of tea when you have time. My little granddaughter
Ah, I keep talking about you."
Can you stop talking about it? The last time I went there, I didn’t have any great gifts, so I got some toffee from the non-military supplies and took them to the old man’s house.
In the end, what kid doesn’t like toffee? On weekdays, you can’t eat this “specialty” of Ailan Hill, because the Holy Demon Empire strictly restricts the import of various Ailan Hill supplies.
After all, the Holy Demon Empire has always had a trade deficit with Elland Hill, and they can only use products such as Knowledge Magic Balls to fill the huge deficit hole. Therefore, the precious import share is reserved for machinery and the technology that must be introduced.
Now, how can there be any sense in wasting money on imported toffee?
The equipment and technology for producing toffee are also low priority in the eyes of the senior leaders of the Holy Demon Empire. They cannot be compared with other advanced technologies at all. Therefore, many daily life condiments that are common among the people in Elland Hill are not available in the Holy Demon Empire.
The Demon Empire is hard to see.
On the other hand, it can also be seen how great the improvement in living standards in the Mortal Empire has been: before, it was all in the Magic Empire but not in the Mortal Empire, but now the situation has been completely reversed in Elanthir.
The current situation is that due to the increase in productivity, people's living standards in Ireland have begun to improve significantly. However, the surrounding countries have not yet achieved this step, so they have been much slower.
The capital accumulated before, with the victory of Elland Hill in the war, and with the subsequent plunder of products, began to decrease, the magical empire's aloof status has been broken, and the luxurious life naturally no longer exists, but what follows is
The pitifully low productivity was exposed and became the fundamental source of the contradiction.
"I'll have a holiday in a few days! You've seen it these days... I'm really busy here." John pointed to the platform not far away and said, "I heard that Greiken is calling.
Very fierce..."
"I know, I know, the fighting over there is fierce, so we can buy more here..." The old man clasped his hands behind his back, looking like a warmonger: "Let me tell you, we should also send troops to support, right?
"
He had made a good calculation. As long as he supported Grecken's army, someone would pay for it. His shoes and socks are daily consumables. The more troops he has, the better his sales will be. By then, he will make a lot of money.
A full bowl is, of course, a good thing.
Therefore, he can be said to be the type of person who sincerely hopes that the Holy Demon Empire will participate in the war, and he is much more active than many others.
"Hey...it's only a matter of time! Maybe in a few days, we will use this railway to send your army to Grecken." John replied casually and continued to direct the crane around him.
Here we go. We have been busy at this point in our day, and I haven’t even had time to take a bite of the meal. I really don’t have much time to chat.
The old man watched for a while, then strolled away. It wasn't like he really had nothing to do. He just came here to keep in touch with each other and maintain connections, which would be useful when the time comes.
He walked out of the train station with his hands behind his back and saw maintenance workers along the railway, as well as cars laden with goods and mountain-moving animals coming and going.
These means of transport are crowded together, with horns and shouts coming and going, and together with the busy railway station, huge cranes, mist-filled locomotives, and long carriages, they form a vivid picture. In this picture, there is
