"You're crazy!" Neil roared loudly, "Now the situation in the territory is going to build a military factory?" Do you think you have a lot of money? ”

"We can think about feeding the war with war." Sean thought for a moment and felt that he was not crazy, "As long as the military factory is established, we can raise the armament of the entire territory by at least one level, which is extremely beneficial for our current territory situation." And you see, we now have hundreds of dwarves and goblins, and if you don't use these resources, it's a waste, can you still count on goblins to go to war? ”

Neil frowned and thought for a moment, then shook his head, obviously disapproving of Sean's approach: "Two questions. ”

"What's the problem."

"First, the initial investment in our territory needs more than 1.7 million, but we currently have about 2.5 million funds left." Neil opened an account book, which listed all kinds of financial revenue and expenditure data in detail, which can be described as clear to a glance, "According to your calculations, the establishment of the military factory needs at least more than one million funds, which is related to the scale, it is okay if it is smaller, but at least about one million is needed, and it is impossible for the territory not to leave reserve funds, so if you calculate it carefully, you need at least three million funds, how are you going to fill the vacancy of 500,000?" ”

Sean's brows furrowed, the vacancy of half a million gold coins, this is indeed not a small amount.

According to Neil's plan, after the establishment of the trade route in Red Leaf Town, the annual profit can reach 200,000, but after deducting many other expenses, only about 100,000 gold coins actually fall into Sean's pocket. So if this money is used to fill the vacancy of 500,000 yuan, it will take at least five years.

Five years.

Who knows what kind of situation will it look like in five years?

Neil waited for a long time but didn't see Sean answer, so he continued: "The second question, the cost of building a military factory is not terrible. But have you thought about it. Where are you going to get the raw materials for the military factory? If you want to form an assembly line operation, you need at least tons of ore. And according to the quality of the crafting equipment, the amount of ore can never be single, this money is the real big head, don't forget that there are no mines in our territory. ”

Strictly speaking, it's not that Sean's territory doesn't have a mine, it's that this mine doesn't belong to Sean. Asuna dared to launch a national war for this vein back then, although Sean said that the relationship with Asuna is currently in the honeymoon period, but Asuna can't give some of this vein to Sean, not to mention that Sean can't create a high-quality standard weapon with this vein alone. Not to mention demonized equipment.

"Is there no other way?" Sean is still a little unwilling.

"It's not that there is no way, but there are no ore veins in our territory, and even if we build a military factory, it will be a waste." Neil shook his head, "Anyway, for the current situation in our territory, it is somewhat unrealistic to build a military factory. …… And on the military side. I'm not really good at it, but I've seen these two production drawings. If the impact shield wants to form a scale at the moment. Some are unrealistic, mainly because the cost is too high. ”

"Is there a way to get a hundred noodles out first?" Sean reluctantly gave up the idea of building a military factory, "I have an urgent need." ”

"It's hard to form a scale with a hundred sides, didn't you say that?"

"It's really hard to scale up in war, but it's different when used in other ways."

"What do you want to do?" Neil was puzzled.

"The Wild Lands." Sean spoke.

"I forgot that." Neil slapped his forehead and said with some annoyance. "I've forgotten about another big advantage of our territory. If you can catch a large number of slaves and sell them, it will also be a lot of income. And those slave catchers can really make good use of it, otherwise it will be too wasteful. ”

Speaking of this, Neil suddenly smiled: "That's right. Speaking of these slave catchers, you'd better check them out. ”

"What's wrong?"

"You'll know when you go and see it." Neil smiled mysteriously.

With a hint of doubt and curiosity, Sean turned and left the main tent of the barracks and walked towards the other corner of the camp.

Because he wanted to accept Vivien's army, William asked Rena to expand the barracks with someone, but this was only a palliative solution. After all, this army is too mixed, and the weapons they use are also varied, in general, except for being cannon fodder to send them to death, there is basically no great value, but the gold content of this army is particularly high.

Not to mention dwarves, goblins and other relatively rare races that are good at forging and engaging in scientific research, even bearmen, minotaurs, werewolves and other races that are good at fighting are by no means common, you must know that orc slaves such as bears and minotaurs are high-priced goods in the slave market, and their sales are never packaged or sold in groups, but only in units.

In the trading capitals, an adult minotaur tends to cost hundreds of gold coins, and the price of a bear is a little higher than that of a minotaur.

In the army that Vivien left to Sean, the Minotaur and the Bears accounted for the majority, nearly three hundred, and when converted into gold coins, it would cost at least nearly 100,000 gold coins. And werewolves, dwarves, and orcs have never been cheaper, not to mention that there are creatures like gray elves in this army. Although the gray elves are not as handsome as the elves of his other races, but from the perspective of human standards, the men and women of the gray elves are not bad in terms of appearance, and their combat strength is not weak, so the price in the slave market has always been high, even higher than orc slaves such as bear people.

The army that Vivian gave to Sean, if it were all sold, would at least be exchanged for hundreds of thousands of income, which would definitely be a big deal.

The barracks are divided into several areas according to the habits of different ethnic groups, and now the militia regiment in White Pigeon Town can only occupy a small corner, and they can move at will not as they used to. And perhaps it is the natural inferiority of human beings, the militia regiment of White Dove Town looks down on this army that Vivien gave to Sean very much, even if the militia regiment is only a second-level army, and this motley army is a third-level army.

So in order to avoid some unnecessary accidents, Rena divided everyone into zones and restricted the scope of free movement. Anyone who violates it will be punished by military regulations. Under Rena's coercion, the militia regiment that had suffered enough naturally did not dare to make trouble, and all of them obediently chose to obey, and the ragtag army that had a little temper before was finally afraid to do it after being cleaned up by Reina.

Along the way, Sean saw very different reactions in the eyes of this motley army.

Like the Minotaur and the Bear Man, who are more honest, most of them have kinder eyes, obviously accepting their fate and not resisting; The gray elves, on the other hand, have an indifferent face, which is very much in line with their image and character; But it's the barbarians who really have some headaches. These are all unruly guys, and the eyes they look at Sean are all defiant.

Barbarians have always served only the strong.

However, Sean is not in the mood to trouble these barbarians now, and there will be a chance to clean them up in the future.

In a corner of the barracks, he finally finds the members of the slave catcher that Neil had called him.

These people are not just pure human beings. There are also barbarians, grey elves, and werewolves, but strangely enough, they all seem to be ostracized by their own race. So the members of these slave catchers had to live together. There are not many people. There are only about twenty people, but everyone at least has the strength of the upper bronze peak, and the strongest ones are even the lower silver peak, and the professions are also varied, so it is naturally impossible to unify the weapons.

However, what Sean saw at the moment was that the twenty or so slave catchers were standing in two rows.

The one in charge of supervising is Rena.

Rena is now half a foot in the top silver. Although he is not a real high-ranking silver master, his strength is still much stronger than these slave hunters. Looking at the bruises on the faces of these slave hunters, it was clear that they had all suffered from Rena.

"You can't even stand up, are you still men?" Rena snorted. "What did I tell you before? If you enter the barracks, you are a soldier, and a soldier must have military regulations, what are the military regulations for you? ”

"Don't leave the planning area without permission, and don't get into trouble with others."

The voice is neat and loud, but the tone is a little strange, and for gray elves and werewolves, the continental lingua franca seems to be a bit difficult to learn.

"Very good, since you all know the way, why are you going to go for trouble?"

"They were the ones who came to get in trouble first, and we just fought back." A middle-aged human man who looked to be about forty replied in a deep voice, "It's all my fault, please punish me if you want to punish me, my lord." ”

"You're very courageous." Rena sneered, "I said before, I don't care what conflicts you have with other people, whoever leaves their own area without permission to find trouble with people in other regions will make a mistake first." …… You are at odds with each other, and I welcome competition, but if you try to get into trouble everywhere, then you will be punished. ”

"My lord, this is not fair, they don't have to be punished for the result of their troublemaking first!"

"Because they have more brains than you." Rena scoffed, "I made the rules, they know how to use the rules, and you break the rules, so that's your problem." If you don't feel convinced, let them break the rules next time, and I will naturally punish them. ”

Seeing this, Sean basically understood what was going on, so he stepped forward: "Who did they fight with?" ”

"Lord Sean." When Rena saw Sean coming, she immediately turned sideways and gave way, showing her respect for Sean with her actions, "They had a fight with the werewolves, it seems that because the werewolf tribe will become captives is the way led by one of the werewolves, but later this slave capture team was annihilated by Lord Vivian, so these werewolves became Lord Vivian's trophies." …… These people will be ostracized by their respective tribes because they have become slave catchers and have led the slave catchers to find trouble with their own tribes. ”

Leading the way party?

Sean loves it!

"The result?" Sean asked again, a bit of gossip.

"Those werewolves are basically waste, and more than fifty people can't beat these twenty or so." Rena looked disdainful.

The slave catchers seemed to be very proud of this victory, and when they heard Raina taunt the werewolves, all the slave catchers showed a proud look on their faces, as if they thought that Raina was praising them by saying this.

"Yo, you're quite proud, more than 20 people have won more than 50 people, and the average record per person is two people." Rena glanced coldly at the slave catchers, and her mocking voice became thicker, "But you are even more wasteful than those werewolves, and even I can't beat them alone." Are you really men? Don't use the realm as an excuse, those werewolves don't even have a single silver, but you have four lower silvers here. …… Lay down all of them and do 300 push-ups. ”

Reina's last sentence was completely shouted, and these slave hunters seemed to be really scared, and when they heard this, they immediately fell to the ground and began to do push-ups, and no one dared to be lazy and tricky. Seeing this scene, Sean finally understood the meaning of Dornell's mysterious smile, it seems that during the time he was not in the barracks, Rena put this army in order very well.

However, more than 20 slave catchers couldn't defeat Rena alone, which made Sean have to re-examine Reina's strength. (To be continued.) )

PS: Ask for a monthly pass!! Four days after the last, there are still 100 shots left!!
