Douluo starts with the Pea Shooter
Chapter 541 The Defeated Country
Lan Nuo and his party sneaked into the city openly. With his invisibility, even if the strongest man in the world came, he would not be discovered unless someone from the God Realm took action. The words in the same city , and the dialogue between city residents, it is not difficult to determine that this is the Sun and Moon Empire. It is a relatively prosperous city on the coast of the Sun and Moon Empire. It is called Sunrise City and has a long history of more than 5,000 years.
After all, this is Douluo, a little-known city with thousands of years of history. However, judging from the living conditions of the residents here, they live in quite poverty. Even with the level of technology, it seems that It is already much more advanced than the Douluo Continent before Lan Nuo traveled through. The life of ordinary people is still not rich, and it is not an exaggeration to say it is even poor.
Lan Nuo noticed the existence of the textile industry in the city, and there were a large number of machines for imitation, which meant that this was not a country lacking in fabrics, and the people's clothes should be brighter and have more styles.
But what he saw was almost uniform clothing, which looked extremely old. Almost every civilian had many patches on his body.
"Why is there such poverty here? This is wrong." Lan Nuo fell into deep thought and looked around at everything happening in the city. It was relatively easy to make this kind of observation with his mental strength.
Master Mao curled his lips: "It's just capitalists like you who exploited the common people. It's just that their technology is not as obvious as what you exploited, and they look very poor."
Lan Nuo shook his head: "If it is purely aristocratic exploitation, although the common people will be poor, some necessary living materials may not be lacking, especially in a period when productivity is relatively developed. Look at the textile factories over there, all kinds of The production efficiency of colored fabrics is very high. It can be judged from the proficiency of the workers that the people working there have developed habits and follow a complete production process and have strict work manuals.
This means that this industry is not a new industry, but has been born for many years. If it is the exploitation of the nobles, then what is the point of their monopoly on these fabrics? Monopolizing the production of bulk commodities can indeed bring huge benefits.
But the premise is that the products you produce need to be sold, and since there are so many products, the sales price will not be particularly high even in a monopoly industry. The accumulation and storage of goods also has costs. Selling the goods as soon as possible will It is helpful to reduce costs and increase the benefits obtained by oneself.
You see, the factories here are producing non-stop day and night. For this city alone, it is equivalent to serious overcapacity.
I just mentally scanned another city a hundred miles away and found that they also have the same type of factory, and the area we are in happens to be a cotton production area. In other words, factories here are actually very common, not only There is overcapacity in this place, but if you look at the clothes of these people and the bright fabrics in these factories, they cannot afford to buy the things they produce in excess, and it is impossible for the nobles to consume so much fabric.
So where did they go? There are many possibilities, but the biggest possibility is that there is still a market that they need to supply, and even if they abandon their own market, they must supply it, and they may even have to supply it at a cheap price.
Let’s continue looking. There must be huge problems in this empire. The internal class contradictions are already so serious, but they still have to continue to squeeze the people at the bottom. If there is no influence of external interference, then the rulers here are either crazy or crazy. Fool. "
Lan Nuo suddenly acted so serious, which made the two people around him a little uncomfortable for a while.
"We really can't accept the fact that you suddenly become so serious. Have you been secretly replaced?" Master Mao was the most direct.
"No, I just think it is necessary to do some social research. Those guys in the God Realm are not so kind. They just let me go to other parallel worlds for vacation. Maybe there will be something wrong waiting for me. Once I got high here and didn't pay attention to anything, I ended up being troubled by trouble here, which was not easy to deal with.
And since we are here for vacation, we definitely need money. If we don’t have money, what’s the point of vacation? Are you trying to steal money? Although it is true that our strength does not require us to care about this issue, my suggestion is to keep things small.
If the gods of this world notice it, it will be very, very, very annoying, because according to the timeline, among the gods of this world, there is already a very annoying guy. The other gods are generally not interested in the development of the continent. I won't care. It's not that something earth-shattering has happened, and I probably don't even have the intention to take a second look.
But if that guy was in the sky, he would probably glance down from time to time, and pay attention to some of the more powerful people on this continent from time to time. "
Master Cat wanted to ask who that person was, but when he thought that Lan Nuo didn't mention the other person's name at all, he probably knew what was going on. After some beings are powerful enough to a certain extent, just mentioning their names can bring about the existence of something mysterious. The induction in it can even reversely lock the location of the person who proposed their name.
It is obviously very dangerous to do this kind of thing openly, especially when the other party may be watching you at any time, and it is even more troublesome to draw the other party's attention.
"So we have to use a more conscientious way to make money this time?" Master Mao asked.
"What can we do? If you lose money, you can earn it again, but if you lose your conscience... you can earn more!"
Cat Lord: "..."
It's still familiar and you can post it. It's still familiar. It seems that no one has changed.
After Lan Nuo walked around the city, he roughly figured out why the civilians here live so hard. The productivity of the Sun Moon Empire is actually not low at all. This is the case in all walks of life, but most of their products are standardized types, which is an important feature of export products.
In other words, all of their goods must be exported, or even... tribute.
This can be seen from the group of arrogant people who came in from outside the city that night. The clothes worn by this group of people are obviously different from those of the people in the Sun and Moon Continent. Cat Lord is quite familiar with the clothes of this group of people. This is the traditional decoration of the people of the Xingluo Empire.
Although it has changed over a long period of time, overall, the difference is not too big.
After entering the city, this group of people naturally brought a high-handed aura, and some of them felt arrogant. When facing the nobles in this city, they felt superior to others.
"This...what happened to our continent seven thousand years later? Could this be the Sun and Moon Continent we discovered before? Has the trade between the two continents also been opened up?" Mr. Cat doesn't know how the history of the future will develop?
"Let me give you some scientific knowledge." Lan Nuo looked at the arrogant people of the Xingluo Empire who were counting the exquisite goods, and explained: "In fact, there is no need to be too surprised. If it weren't for our promotion, the navigation technology of the Douluo side would never have developed.
The same is true for the navigation technology of the Sun-Moon Empire. They have never paid much attention to the ocean. Each of them is a land power country. The intersection of the two continents originated from a continental collision caused by a plate movement not long ago.
The original ocean between the two continents was squeezed away. It became the mountains that now span between the two continents.
On both sides of the mountain range are the Sun-Moon Empire and the Douluo Three Kingdoms, and a large-scale war broke out between them. Although the Sun-Moon Empire is a unified empire, the Douluo Three Kingdoms successfully turned the tables after the initial martyrs and defeated the Sun-Moon Empire.
As you can see, this is exactly the treatment of the defeated country. My previous speculation is similar. The goods produced by the Sun-Moon Empire cannot be put into their own market, but must flow into the Xingluo Empire, and even the Tianhun and Douling Empires at extremely cheap prices."
"What are the Tianhun Empire and the Douling Empire?" Cat Lord was confused.
"In short, the original Tiandou Empire split up and became these two guys. In short, the strength of Douluo has not developed much in recent years, and it may even have regressed due to the division of the empire."
Mr. Mao fell into deep thought, and then raised a soul-searching question: "According to my judgment, if there is no influence from us, if the three countries on the Douluo Continent split up again, how can they beat those guys on the Sun and Moon Continent? Even if their cultivation talent is very poor, their joint formation is not weak at all. Even if there are no cultivation geniuses in this generation, they can rely on the formation to make up for it and ensure that there are strong people in every generation.
Even if we can't win, we won't lose, as long as Keep delaying until there are no amazing strong people born in this generation of Douluo, then we can win the battle. "
Lan Nuo shook his head: "It's not as simple as you think. The lack of development of Douluo does not mean that the Sun-Moon Continent has not developed. When we went there, the Sun-Moon Continent was still divided, namely the Sun Shining Empire, the Moon Shining Empire and the Holy Dragon Empire. When the two continents collided with each other, the Sun-Moon Continent had been unified, and only the Sun-Moon Empire, a huge empire, remained.
Do you think that during this process, the Sun-Moon Empire will not develop at all? Will it be as weak as when we faced it? "
Cat thought about it. Although the Sun-Moon Continent is not as big as Douluo, it is also close to two-thirds of the area. And the strength exerted by a unified empire is much stronger than that of a divided one. Therefore, from this point of view, the strength of the Sun-Moon Empire should be stronger.
"Not only that, the Sun-Moon Empire has developed technology compared to our time, to be more precise, soul guides. You should have some impression of this thing. We made this thing in advance, and they also integrated the characteristics of their joint military formation into their own technology, making the power of the army more concentrated.
Theoretically, the power of thousands of people can be concentrated on one person with very low loss. The power of this level of army is enough to rival or even surpass the Ultimate Douluo."
"Then what are you fighting for?" The expression on Mr. Mao's face was extremely strange: "The Sun-Moon Empire is so strong. The Douluo side has no chance of winning at all, why did they win instead?"
"How do I know? According to the historical materials given to me by the God Realm over there, the Douluo Three Kingdoms were beaten back at the beginning. Later, Shrek Academy stood up and raised its arms to unite the power of the entire continent. Completed the counterattack.
To be honest, I don't believe this part of history very much, although it is said that in the historical line without our interference, Shrek Academy would have a very large influence.
But he is only a strong man trained by an academy after all, and most of them are scattered all over the continent. Even if he can unite the three empires, it is not the reason for their victory.
Having been beaten so badly by foreign invaders like the Sun and Moon Empire, is it possible that the three empires will not unite? Maybe there are still some intrigues at this time, but to be honest, even if there is no Shrek Academy at the moment of life and death, when the opponent has the ability to wipe them out, they will definitely unite as much as possible.
Even if Shrek Academy itself has a very strong foundation. It is already exaggerated to be able to send a strong man of the Extreme Douluo level. In front of a truly united legion, if there are only one or two strong men of this level, it will not play a decisive role at all.
So I have always suspected that there may be some external factors interfering in this war. But this is something we are not convenient to talk about for the time being. "
Lan Nuo did not continue to delve into this topic, and Mao Ye did not continue to ask, because they saw that the noble of the Xingluo Empire was kicking a woman of the Sun and Moon Empire to the ground.
"Why are you so useless? A month ago, we brought more raw materials, but you lazy guys didn't produce all the raw materials into cloth for us in a whole month. It seems that I am too lenient with you. Come here! Pick out the three people with the lowest output this month and behead them. Hang their heads at the door of your factory as a warning! I will see who dares to be lazy before the next time I come?
This time I brought twice as much cotton. If you can't weave them all into cloth on time, the punishment next time will not be so light. "
As he spoke, three women were pulled out of the crowd while struggling. Let them scream and cry, it was useless. They were dragged in front of the nobles of the Xingluo Empire. I saw that the noble waved his hand and the servants around him drew their long swords and walked towards the screaming women.
