Steel, Guns, and the Industrial Party that Traveled to Another World

Mr. Bennett Todd, who lives in the port of Fulan, is a rich person. He is the master of five cargo ships.

Bennte's grandfather was a business business. He accumulated a sum of money by going south and north by years. In his father's generation, the family began to throw his eyes to the sea.

In the puzzled eyes of relatives, his father used the money left by his grandfather to buy the first paddle sailing boat from the Todd family, and recruited a sufficient amount of sailors to start running a sea business on the sea of ​​Northwest Bay.

By the time Bennte took over, the Todd family had five cargo ships.

The existence of pirates does not affect the business of the ship dealers. It is very distressing to pay a protection fee each year. However, since the rise of the pirate Edward, the pirates understand that the hen who cannot slaughter the golden eggs is slaughtered. Only by let the hens eat fat can we get more golden eggs.

Only those unlucky eggs with hard bones will be grabbed by the pirates.

And even if this money is not given to pirates as a protection fee, it has to be paid as a tax on the hands of the lord.

That's right, the only thing that lost is the lords who rely on the sea to the sea. As far as the overall level, the pirates receive more protection fees, and the lord will receive less taxes. After all Come.

But this year, the Northwest Bay can be described as changing.

Edward and his main fleet who led the pirates suddenly did not know where to go.

This has caused a lot of losses.

Then there were several pirate groups ashore and plundered. A pirate gang, known as the "shark", also occupied Fulan Port. What is even more surprising is that they also ambushed to kill Alida's Lord Graman.

Local businessmen, including Bennett, were extorted by pirates.

However, the good day of the pirates didn't take long. The successor of the successor Paul Graman quickly recruited a soldier to fight back the pirates. After a few months of the pirates such as sharks, it was hanged on the square of Fulang Port.

At first, in the eyes of Mr. Todd, the young Gramman was an ambitious person, and of course, it can be said to be so high.

After he recovered Fulan Port, he convened a businessman to blow off, saying that he would establish a "ocean trading company" in the future, hoping that everyone could participate together.

In his described prospects, businessmen's business will no longer be limited to the Northwest Bay, but will do a farther place, such as the west coast of the kingdom, such as the south of the gap, or even the Horn Bay to east to the east before going to the east to the east Essence

At that time, everyone thought that the main victory of the pirate was stunned by the pirates, or they just changed the Fayer for money for them. How long does it take to run away with a boat?

However, what happened in this lord in recent times made Mr. Todd and some of his businessmen feel that he was not bragging or coaxing everyone at the time.

Earl Grandan did not make everyone "invest" as a company that everyone guessed at the time. Instead, he first made a few novelty that was sold.

The cheap new paper, exquisite porcelain, and the harvester that attracts landlords have ordered them, all from the hands of this young lord.

Then it seems impossible to invent a ship that can sail ocean.

But even so, what can be used as a product in the remote northwest to attract the interest of people in the rich areas in the south?

Oh, right! Those things that Count Graman himself can sell can be sold. No wonder he is going to set up a "ocean trading company".

No, the Earl has once again visited Fulan Port to convene businessmen to meet with the government affairs department.

Bennett came to the Department of Government Affairs at the prescribed time. The original church had been transformed into a new place and became a place where the mayor and other affairs officials dealt with daily government affairs.

He entered the original big chapel, and now it has been changed to the conference room. The tables and chairs are ready.

There are already a lot of familiar faces sitting there, and they are not just a businessman who are present. They saw Bennte say hello.

Before the lord arrives, everyone's discussion has a name for Lord Earl this time.

"Earl Glaman is here!"

When the guards standing at the door notified loudly, everyone immediately quietly.

I saw the lord's head of Fulan Port, the mayor of Fulan Port, and the mayor of the mayor of the mayor, and Pi Peter walked in from the side door.

After the three sat down in turn, Earl Glaiman went straight to the theme.

"Sir, this time calling you not to come over for other things, but a good way to discuss your fortune." "

Let's get rich? The merchants below looked at each other. Aren't the nobles regarding them as fat sheep? When lacking money, slaughter.

"You have issued money, so I can collect more taxes!" Said the countlessly.

It turns out that this is the first to put the sheep tiny, and then slaughter.

However, at least, at least the remaining meat can be more, and the minds of many businessmen have begun to become alive.

The lord continues to speak: "Everyone must know that the south is fighting. What does war mean? War means getting rich!"

As the king of His Majesty, when his old man encountered such troubles, he said that, everyone said in his hearts, but he both agreed about getting rich.

"The ocean trade I mentioned before is not yet in place, but my shipyard is building ships suitable for ocean voyages. I believe that results will be achieved soon. I will need your support!"

After hearing this, Bennett thought to himself: "It seems that Earl Graman should be prepared."

If a ship suitable for ocean voyages can really be built, the Todd family, as a ship merchant, cannot be left behind no matter what.

No mistakes, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!

Of course, Bennett was not the only one who had similar ideas.

The lord said: "Although the conditions for sea transportation are not yet available, we can still transport it by land. Even if there are many checkpoints on the road, there is still profit."

The merchants disagreed. It's not like everyone has tried what the lord said just now, but they all lost a lot.

There are few specialty products in the Northwest Bay area, and most of the products produced there are also produced in other places. They are transported over long distances and peeled off at various checkpoints in the territory. In order not to lose money, it is impossible to set a too low price at the destination.

And because the price is too high, it is naturally unable to compete with similar local products, and finally it is still a loss if it cannot be sold.

Therefore, for a long time, the merchants here either produce and sell their own products in their own territory, or sell foreign specialties to the Northwest Bay.

The outflow of wealth caused by the trade deficit has become one of the important reasons for the economic decline of the Northwest Bay area. If it were not for the food and some small number of special products, the situation would be unimaginable.

"I know what everyone is thinking, so I decided to develop several "fist industries" for our Alda."

"Fist industry"? The lord said a new term, and the merchants pricked up their ears.

"For example, the latest new paper, porcelain, and harvesters, we can make them while others can't, or we can make them with better quality, more quantity, and cheaper price."

The merchants suddenly realized that the paper, porcelain, and harvesters that have emerged recently can indeed be regarded as specialties among the specialties of the Northwest Bay area.

There is only one family in the world, and it is the Graman family.

Many people present have bought paper and porcelain from the Earl's "factory" and sold them elsewhere.

Only the harvesters are strictly restricted by the Lord's Mansion, and only the agricultural machinery factory is allowed to sell them directly to the indigenous customers in Arda and Bailding.

But the output of these things is too small to be called an industry.

Many people have an idea that they think is a bit absurd:

Could it be...

Could it be...

Earl Graman wants to share the manufacturing technology of these things with everyone to expand their production?
