Chapter 237 Survival From Desperation (500 Monthly Pass)
(PS: 500 monthly tickets plus updates, there will be Chapter 2 guaranteed in the afternoon)
Ouyang Shuo suppressed his desire for talents and continued to adjust the territory planning.
"One of the biggest problems with the territory's finances is its over-reliance on the Langshan Mine and the Beimu Salt Field. Because of the continuous supply of funds from the two industries, the territory lacks motivation to develop other industries. With the rapid increase in both the size of the territory and the size of the army, Expansion, the funds provided by the two industries have already lacked stamina."
"Whether it is the Langshan Mine or the Beimu Salt Field, their scale and profits have reached their peak early, and there is no potential to tap. In the long run, other industries must be boosted, except for the established core industries - military industry, territorial specialties The Sanhua wine and colored silk in the market are high-profit commodities, but unfortunately they have not received enough attention, and they are still in a half-dead state. In fact, the potential of the special products of the territory is much higher than that of the Langshan Mine and the Beimu Salt Field, because they The possibilities are endless.”
What Ouyang Shuo said was not only self-criticism, but also a disguised criticism of the work of the Finance Department. Whether it was Sanhua wine or colored silk, Ouyang Shuo had already handed it over to the Finance Department, and he had made similar suggestions before. It's a pity that the Finance Department's steps are not big enough and too conservative.
Ouyang Shuo stopped Yingyou from pleading guilty with his eyes, and continued, "This Marquis has decided to set up an industry department in the Finance Department to be responsible for the operation of the three special products of the territory, Sanhua wine, colored silk and pekoe tea. At the same time, take out 5,000 gold coins will be used to support the expansion of these three industries. The specific plan includes building a super-large winemaking workshop in the western suburbs, that is, the Sanhua Winery, with a monthly output of at least 500,000 units; expanding the scale of the mulberry garden to at least one Mu. Pekoe tea is affected by geographical location and has great uncertainty.”
With the gradual opening of the Sanhua wine market in Dali, the price of each unit of Sanhua wine has risen to 2 silver coins, with a net profit of 150 copper coins. If Sanhua Distillery can achieve the expected output, the monthly profit will reach 7500 gold coins. If the scale is expanded again in the later stage, the profit amount will become higher.
After the Sanhua Distillery is completed, it will drive a large number of displaced persons to find employment.
According to Ying Cui, president of the Textile Association, silkworms can be raised four times a year in the Lianzhou Basin. One mu of mulberry can produce 90 units of silkworm cocoons, on average three units of silkworm cocoons can produce one unit of silk, and five units of silk can weave one bolt of silk.
It means that one mu of mulberry can produce six bolts of colored silk in one season. In the market, a piece of colored silk is priced at 1 gold coin, after deducting the 10% transaction tax and cost, the net profit is 4 gold coins.
If the scale of the mulberry garden reaches 10,000 mu, the quarterly profit will reach 40,000 gold coins, and the annual profit will be 160,000 gold coins.
According to Ouyang Shuo's plan, after the planning of Sanhua Winery and Mulberry Garden is in place, it is equivalent to rebuilding a Langshan Mine and Beimu Saltworks, doubling the profit.
The industrial plan proposed by Ouyang Shuo is very exciting.
Even so, Ouyang Shuo was not satisfied, and set his sights on the core industry - the military industry. After the release of the iron ore shackles, the output of the three major army workshops has increased, but the speed of increase still cannot satisfy Ouyang Shuo. If weapons and equipment cannot meet domestic demand, how can arms trade be carried out? !
Ouyang Shuo looked at Sun Xiaoyue, the president of [Luoyuehui], and said, "The three major military workshops in the Eastern District will be open to blacksmiths, carpenters, and tailors among the members of [Luoyuehui]. The prerequisite is that members who enter the three major workshops , a confidentiality agreement must be signed. I hope the guild will take the lead in organizing this work."
Sun Xiaoyue attended the meeting as a consultant, so she didn't want to say much, she just nodded to show that it was okay.
After three months of hard work, [Luoyuehui] has successfully promoted the guild token to the silver level, the upper limit of members has been raised to 10,000, and a guild feature has been added.
After Ouyang Shuo heard the news, he immediately contacted his aunt, and sent [Shangxue Meimei] to Shanhai County in large batches of professional players recruited by Shanhai County.
In a short period of time, [Luoyuehui] has more than 2,000 members, and it is still growing.
The proportion of gamers in the population of Shanhai County began to rise sharply. In order to balance the development of the territory, Ouyang Shuo had to divert some casual professional players to Swimming County and Youyi County.
As for Beihai County, it is not yet open to players.
Because life professional players generally lead their families, and the whole family settles in Shanhai County together.
The consequences are both pros and cons. Players are all young people, and their family members can be roughly divided into three groups: elders, peers, and juniors.
The elders, that is, their parents and even grandparents, are experienced elders. This group of people either choose fishing, cooking and other occupations, and enjoy life wholeheartedly. Or he has a skill and was hired by Southwest University as a grassroots teacher to make use of his spare heat. They are one of the most stable groups.
Peers, that is, the player's brothers and sisters, are all young people. Some of these people are also life professional players, but their talents are not outstanding. More, or adventure players.
They are one of the most restless groups.
For this reason, Ouyang Shuo ordered that the Criminal Prosecution Division be open to Yamen servant players, the Medical Office be open to Xuanhu doctors, and Song Jia's Dongli Sword Sect to recruit knight-errant players.
Taoist players also have a place to go, and that is Qingyang Temple in the western suburbs.
As for the strategists and generals players, they are the most miserable group. Because the Shanhai County military is not yet open to player groups, they have no way to play.
The last category is the younger generation, that is, children. These little guys, like Binger, still go to the virtual classroom every day. When not in school, they run and play around the territory. It brings a little bit of childlike fun to the slightly dull territory.
The more and more open attitude of Shanhai County has made the player community more and more aware of Shanhai County, and began to truly regard themselves as a part of Shanhai County, rather than outsiders.
After Ouyang Shuo put forward a clear idea on the four major parts of the territory's army, subsidiary territory planning, territory structure, and territory industry planning, he finally said: "I hope you will work together to implement the plan."
"Here!" All the ministers saluted together.
At this point, the military and political meeting where Ouyang Shuo sang a one-man show officially came to an end.
*************
Just when Ouyang Shuo was planning a grand blueprint for the territory, a major event occurred in Duanren Town by the Dongla Lake that could affect the future trend of the Lianzhou Basin.
Broken Blade Town, Lord's Mansion.
"What did you say, say it again?" Ba Dao couldn't believe it.
"My lord, it is absolutely true that the Shanman tribe who cooperated with us found a gold mine in the forest. The Shanman doesn't understand gold mining and refining technology, so they hope to cooperate with us."
"Okay!" Ba Dao slapped the table vigorously, stood up abruptly, walked around the meeting room, tried to calm down his excited mood, and sighed to the sky: "It's true that the sky will not kill me!"
In the last territorial war, Broken Blade Town was defeated, the army was almost withered, and the working capital of the territory was also exhausted due to the three transmission costs.
In order to raise funds and rebuild an army, Ba Dao almost sold all the resources of the territory. During those days, Ba Dao was worried all day, for fear that when he woke up, the army from Shanhai County would kill him. Fortunately, Shanhai County's energy was dragged down by Tianfeng County, Ouyang Shuo was unable to look around, and Duanren Town was finally spared.
The house leak coincided with the continuous night rain, so it was hard to die. At this time, the food price suddenly rose again, and Duanren Town immediately fell into a food crisis.
Mountain darkly, vista.
The gold mine is undoubtedly the best gift that God bestowed on Ba Dao, which saved him from desperation.
"Qiyue Wuyi, I won't let you go!" Ba Dao swore fiercely in his heart.
*************
In the afternoon, Ouyang Shuo walked out of the Hou Mansion and came to the sacrificial area in the east of the Hou Mansion.
The sacrificial area was very empty, and to the north was the Heaven Sacrifice Square covering an area of 100 hectares, fully occupying two-thirds of the area of the sacrificial area.
The Tianji Square is paved with bluestone slabs, surrounded by exquisite railings carved from marble.
In the center of the square, a high platform was set up, and on top of the high platform, a Shang Ding was placed, which was fixed in all directions. Other than that, there are no decorations in the entire Tianji Square.
Behind the Tiantian Square, there are three sacrificial buildings. The middle one is naturally the Yellow Emperor Temple. On both sides of the Yellow Emperor's Temple, there are two newly completed temples, which are the basic buildings of the third-level county town - the Confucian Temple and the Wu Temple.
Ouyang Shuo walked into the Confucian Temple. There were five courtyards at the front and back of the Confucian Temple, with red walls and yellow tiles, including Depei Tiandi Daoguan Ancient and Modern Archway, Wanren Palace Wall, Lingxing Gate, Panchi, Dacheng Gate, Dacheng Hall, Minglun Hall, Zunjing Pavilion and other buildings.
The Confucian Temple is dedicated to the sages and teachers of the liberal arts. Confucius is the sage, and his disciple Yan Yuan is the sage. There are ten philosophers, seventy-two sages, and twenty-two sages. Except for the twenty-two sages, all of them are disciples of Confucius.
The ten sages have statues, while the seventy-two sages only have portraits, and they can all receive incense.
In the game, Gaia has made some changes to the Confucian Temple. In addition to keeping the status of Confucius as the sage, the ten philosophers and seventy-two sages are all replaced by ancient and modern sages, making the Confucian Temple more worthy of its name.
Fan Zhongyan from Shanhai County was among the seventy-two virtuous ministers.
The only advantage of being included in the Confucian Temple is that after death in the game, they can be resurrected through the Confucian Temple, which is equivalent to obtaining the same immortal body as the player.
Ouyang Shuo took out an incense pill, and a system prompt sounded in his ear.
"System prompt: It has been detected that the player Qiyue Wuyi has Xianghuo Jingwan, do you want to use it?"
"use!"
With a sound of swiping, the incense pills turned into white lights, and were thrown into the statues of virtuous ministers one by one.
"System prompt: The statues of virtuous ministers are nourished by incense and fire essence pills, and the architectural characteristics derived from the Confucian Temple - [Wenzhi] (increase the bottleneck rate of civil servants in the territory by 30%)."
Sure enough, it is worthy of being called Confucian Temple, and its derived architectural features are simply tailor-made for civil servants.
