In another corner of the world, compared to the terrifying hell of Shakeburn, this place is rich and prosperous, and people can completely describe it as living and working in peace and contentment. Of course, compared to Shakeburn, any other place can be called paradise.
Although, a year ago, this was not the area ruled by Eiland Hill, but now, production has resumed here, and many places are thriving.
In the spacious and bright room, luxurious translucent curtains hang on both sides of the windows. The style of carved beams and painted pillars is the latest trend, which is called the royal baroque trend. The reason is that the emperor suddenly thought of decorating a palace in this style.
Palace, and then it immediately became popular among the aristocratic circles.
As the saying goes, what goes up and what goes down will lead to results. Since the emperor suddenly liked this style, the people below immediately started to imitate this decoration style, without any intention of being stingy with money.
Especially in these remote places, the houses bought by the nobles have not had time to be renovated, so it is naturally easier to change the style.
"We are all human beings! We should save these suffering compatriots!" A man wearing the traditional clothing of Seris, which His Majesty the Emperor has been very fond of recently, played with the ring on his finger, stroked the gem on it that was as big as a dove egg, and vowed.
said.
His words aroused the approval of a group of fat-headed men. These people nodded and said with evil smiles: "Yes, we should save these poor lambs. Who makes us kind-hearted shepherds?"
"
With the expansion of Ireland Hill, the industry is also expanding. In order to survive, many companies are constantly moving their factories and seeking lower production costs.
Because the industrial technology of these factories is not very high-end, they can only rely on continuously reducing their production costs to increase their competitiveness.
The main way for them to reduce production costs is to find ways to move their factories to the newly occupied area of Iran Hill and use the cheap labor costs there to reduce the cost of their products.
Therefore, what these factories like most is the so-called "lambs", which are third-class citizens and even surrendered prisoners. For this reason, they call themselves shepherds.
After all, under the laws of Ireland, third-class citizens and those in newly occupied areas are unable to enjoy some basic legal rights. These people are easily exploited, and in fact they are happy to be exploited.
Although these factories are very inhumane, in these newly occupied areas, even their inhumane practices are still a blessing to everyone's survival.
Even if you just provide some mustard vegetables and cheap bread to farmers who have no food, the area can be completely stabilized.
Local civilians who have received these benefits can immediately go to work in the factory with all their heart. After receiving some simple training, they can start working next to the machine tools.
Anyway, these cheap flesh and blood factories are only engaged in the production of low-level commodities, such as cheap screws, cheap door hinges, and some small parts.
In short, give these people a machine tool and let them produce day and night, and they can make a lot of profits.
And the people here will feel happy for a long time after getting food and drink. After all, these civilians who have not yet experienced how terrible the welfare benefits of Ailan Hill are will not understand.
What a world of difference.
By the time these people realize that they have been exploited, these factories have been replaced by subsequent large-scale factories. They will continue to expand to border areas and continue to build uncivilized areas.
The top management of Eiland Hill are also happy to see this kind of exploitation, because this kind of exploitation is absolutely beneficial to them.
On the one hand, the construction of such a small flesh and blood factory can cultivate the industrial awareness of local civilians and save time in training real industrial talents.
At the same time, these factories can also allow local people to get used to working overtime, and also allow them to learn some of the ways of survival of the people of Ireland before officially becoming people of Ireland.
On the other hand, such a flesh and blood factory can also improve the level of local infrastructure. First, they need to lay various lines and arrange power plants, which are all strictly required by the top management of Ireland.
At least, after the power station is eliminated and replaced, these high-standard pipelines will remain and become the legacy of the subsequent large-scale factories built, which will speed up the subsequent construction speed.
Therefore, even though the higher-ups knew that these so-called shepherds were evil and indeed unscrupulous and exploited the civilians in the newly occupied areas, they still pretended to be deaf and mute and did not deal with these people on a large scale.
However, as Eiland Hill became more and more powerful, these shepherds also continued to improve the treatment of "lamb" in the newly occupied areas. They also had to start using ordinary bread instead of brown bread and use better ham.
sausage to replace the original Bude mustard.
Although Bude's mustard is very famous in many magic empires, the military purchases of Elland Hill, the original largest consumer group, have actually decreased a lot.
Because sales were affected, the stock price of Bude Mustard Group Co., Ltd. in Bude City continued to fall slightly, which also triggered the analysis of many economists.
An economist from the southern part of the Holy Demon Empire believes that this kind of economy is a concrete manifestation of the economic collapse of Alan Hill. He believes that the people of Alan Hill gave up the Bude mustard as a side dish for instant noodles because their income has dropped and they have already eaten.
That's amazing.
However, this statement was quickly ridiculed by the core ruling circle of Alan Hill, because no one would think that they could not afford Bude mustard. Even the poorest first-class citizens of Alan Hill could not afford it at this moment.
The living standard is higher than that of ordinary small nobles in the past.
They enjoy a more efficient and advanced medical system, with many advanced medical equipment and more professional doctors.
At the same time, core areas also enjoy higher education levels. Children in these areas can get good education, including kindergarten, preschool education, elementary school, junior high school and high school. Colleges require examinations, and the admission rate is higher than that of residents in other areas.
higher.
What's even more frightening is that because of the Magic Ball of Knowledge, almost all civilians here have special skills. They are all engaged in very high-level jobs, and many of them earn a lot of money.
Because the Ailan Hill Empire values industry, and there are many booming industries that can continue to invest, the tertiary industry of Ailan Hill is actually not developed. On the contrary, many emerging industries such as tourism can only be considered to be of average scale.
.
Because the higher-ups attach great importance to higher-level industries, most businessmen are also willing to invest in real industries. Although real estate and the stock market are also prosperous, they are generally in a state of containment.
"The message sent by the people above is for us to improve the happiness of some civilians in the southern region. This is a task assigned by our backers above. If anyone does not do well, it will be at risk of everyone's financial problems...
..." The man, who was playing with his huge gemstone ring, said the purpose of this meeting.
The faces of several men immediately became unhappy, and a voluptuous woman complained in a cooing voice: "Why are you improving again? It's only been a few months... are you going to give us people a way to survive?"
She relied on cheating nobles to accumulate wealth, and then joined the industry as a so-called shepherd. In the past two years, she made a lot of money, and gradually used her nepotism to become a noble lady.
People who know her give her some bad reviews. After all, no one wants to make enemies with a woman. This woman who is more black widow than a poisonous spider is not very old, but she has been a widow. She has raised many pretty boys, so she can be regarded as a widow.
Everyone can do whatever they can.
"Since you don't want to live anymore, then I will help you." The leading man sneered and said, "Anyway, you know our rules. Once the backer gets angry, someone must come out and take the blame."
As he spoke, he looked at the woman's pretty face and snorted: "Don't think that everyone is greedy for your skin. If something goes wrong, there won't be many people who can save you."
In this leader's view, as long as the woman behind him is not the so-called patron who has slept with him, he can ignore her.
Of course, if the most terrifying women in this empire are of course the nobles from the royal family... However, the possibility of provoking these heavenly soldiers and generals is very small, so the backer behind him can be regarded as a powerful person within the empire.
It's a senior executive who can speak up.
After hearing the threat from the first person, the woman looked obviously unhappy for a moment. But then, she remembered her bedmate who had been disobedient and had his own way of exploiting the workers.
The man who spent a lot of money to have sex with her never showed up again after a meeting like today's half a year ago.
She still remembered that the other party arrogantly said that she had a backer before leaving. If it weren't for hooking up with this man's backer, she would not have recommended herself to have any contact with the fat man. But obviously judging from the results, this man's backer
Doesn't really work.
So, this charming woman put away her expression, forced out a smile, and compromised: "I know! I know! You are such a great god, but you scare me, a little girl, so nervous."
As she spoke, she moved closer, ready to show off some of her beauty to please the man in charge.
The man allowed the woman to hold his arm, rub her breast against his arm, showed a satisfied smile, and warned: "I am always the most fair person in my work. Everyone is obedient.
, everyone will make money... If someone disobeys, you can take the consequences yourself..."
