Chapter 174 Preparing to Develop the Tertiary Industry
"Scroll of Wisdom? But that one is very expensive. It takes two hundred golden dragons to buy one."
Chi Nan waved his hand: "Just think of it as a benefit for our Hongshaling officials. Every official must use it in the future. I don't want my subordinates to be a bunch of illiterate people who don't understand anything."
"Needless to say, having a lot of knowledge can make greater contributions to our Hongsha Ridge. A mere two hundred golden dragons are just the price of two pneumatic cannons, so they are nothing at all. Anyway, we now have There are so many golden dragons in there, there is no place to spend them. "Chi Nan is really having a headache about how to spend money.
Hermila hesitated for a moment, and finally said silently: "But sir, the scrolls of wisdom rely on the power of mages to seal some common sense in the scrolls. Only mages can make them."
"What do you want to say? Just say it, and I won't blame you."
"What I want to say is, sir, don't you know that few mages can make wisdom scrolls? They can only be purchased from the Mages Association, and the quantity is not large at all. It is impossible to buy in large quantities."
Chi Nan was silent for a while, then thought about it and asked, "So, why do those mages make scrolls of wisdom?"
The bald father next to him spoke: "Sir, I know this. On the one hand, it is because the nobles need it, which can greatly reduce their study time, so the noble council has regulations. Those mages who want to live in the kingdom must abide by it. Some regulations. On the other hand, it seems that some mages need to make money."
Chi Nan understood that mages are indeed very expensive. He is not a real mage, so he doesn't understand it very well. But no matter what kind of mages he knew before, they were all short of money.
Therefore, there are many ways that mages can make money. Since they want to make money, this matter will be easy to handle.
Thinking of this, Chi Nan immediately said: "In that case, I will write to Her Royal Highness the Third Princess later to help negotiate. The scroll of wisdom is just a scroll, and it is not a dangerous item. Well, that's it, give some benefits to the royal family and increase the price of the scroll at the same time. , this will always allow them to help us produce a large number of wisdom scrolls."
This thing won't break, even if you have too much, you will need it sooner or later.
"But those mages usually have to do a lot of research, and I'm afraid many of them won't take the time to make them."
Chi Nan waved his hand: "Then use what they are interested in. I remember that detoxification moss is a very good magic material. It can not only be used to make antidote potions, but can also be used in other ways."
After a pause, Chi Nan continued: "I have planted a lot of detoxifying moss here. We will use this to negotiate when the time comes. We can provide a batch to the Mage Association. I think they also need it very much."
Not planning to continue the discussion, Chi Nan waved his hand: "Okay, don't say anything anymore, just do it. Next, forget it, bald dad, come and explain to them what is written here." Chi Nan didn't bother to read it himself. These subordinates really let him down. There is no way, this world does not have the conditions for universal learning.
"Lord, there is one more thing that you may need to solve."
Hearing Hermila's words, Chi Nan was a little weird: "What's the matter? I still need to solve it."
Hermila said with some embarrassment: "Sir, the number of unemployed people has increased in recent times. Many of our citizens have no way to make money, so the security situation has not been very good recently."
"There are no profitable jobs? Are you kidding? Our city is being built now. How can building a city leave them without jobs?" Chi Nan was very surprised.
Hermila touched her forehead: "It's not all your fault. Those important buildings, city walls, and even residential buildings were all planted with seeds provided by you or even planted by you yourself. These places are usually The places that use the most workers have now been taken care of by you, so of course the residents will have no jobs.”
Chi Nan smiled awkwardly, he had really forgotten this. Planting a large number of plants yourself and quickly building a city is a good thing for the territory and yourself, but it may not be a good thing for the civilians.
There are not a lot of job opportunities, but because of the continuous increase in population, many people are slowly losing their source of income. However, with the construction of the territory, the prices of various commodities within the territory began to rise.
If we connect with the outside world in the future, even the flour currently distributed to civilians will continue to increase in price, and we have stopped planting black grains here, we will be in big trouble.
Fortunately, it was discovered early now. If it continues like this, it will explode over time, which is not what I want to see.
After thinking about it, Chi Nan said: "In that case, let's develop the tertiary industry. You don't know? It doesn't matter. It's the service industry. If not, you can also develop the tourism industry. Let me tell you..."
Chi Nan began to talk quickly and confusedly. As he listened, Hermila's eyes lit up. Her lord was indeed not a mortal.
"How to develop tourism? The mountains and rivers you mentioned are everywhere. There is no need to come to us to see them."
Chi Nan patted his forehead. He had really forgotten that this world was different from the earth. This world was vast and sparsely populated. "Then let them see the man-made scenery. We have built the city, and then let them come and visit these buildings. If you have any questions, tell them immediately."
Hemi nodded: "As for the service industries you mentioned, I don't think anyone will do it. After all, no one has done it on such a large scale before, and even our territory doesn't have many rental carriages."
It seems that without a good foundation, it is really a headache to develop many things. In this case, I can only start it myself.
Thinking of this, Chi Nan immediately said: "Then let our Lord's Mansion do it. Recruit some people directly, register them under my Chamber of Commerce, let them do it, and I will start paying them wages."
"Sir, if we do it, the salary is too high, isn't it a bit wasteful?"
"No, it's not a waste at all. This can improve the reputation of our territory and make it convenient for everyone. The most important thing is that if we do this, it can create higher value for our territory and make the circulation of gold dragons easier."
The two people look at the problem in completely different directions. Hemi made up her mind that if it is not appropriate, she will force it to stop.
