Chapter 1074: Precursor of Disarray (7)
"Overall, it's not very promising. Waters summed it up, "On the other hand, the rebel forces are not necessarily better off than the king's side. The kingdom of Chir is only so large that the geography and population base limit them to death. When you think about it this way, you take it for granted. ”
"How about the business, I heard that I want to use the land directly to mortgage the money owed. ”
"This is the case now. Wars to be fought or not are rapidly draining both sides, money and resources, and their energy. The small friction has not stopped, and the personnel on both sides have a somewhat tired posture. But he didn't dare to relax, for fear that the other party would suddenly start a war, and his side was completely unprepared. Our business has improved, and it is precisely because of their form. Weapons and ammunition are never stockpiled enough, and the live-fire drill used to be only once every few years, but now it is almost once a week, and as long as the soldiers are rested enough, then training is the only thing they need to focus on at the moment. That's why ammunition is consumed so much. But fortunately, in recent times, all the energy and basic raw materials of the factory have been provided by the king's side. Although a large part of the money from the finished product cannot be recovered, it can be calculated that in sufficient quantities, the amount of money we actually earn is not much different from before, plus the established growth rate. ”
"In other words, you have already taken the land that was used as collateral?"
"That's right, Captain. "There's a lot of risk, but if we don't, we're not going to be able to grow here, and we're going to be squeezed by a few other arms and ammunition suppliers." After all, they are basically companies native to the surrounding area, and in terms of trust, not only the Kingdom of Qi, but also several other small surrounding countries also have a lot of confidence in them. We were able to squeeze in because of both quality and speed of delivery. ”
"You've got to find a way to put that land to good use. Kasia nodded to herself, then looked at Waters, "It must be in the middle of nowhere, right?"
"Of course, that's for sure. Waters smiled a little awkwardly, after all, these loss-making businesses were signed from him, "There are no people there, let's say it's a frontier, but there are many borders with other countries, but there are mountains in between." It is said that it is inside the kingdom, either on the edge of the desert, or in a wasteland with little nutrition, the environment is harsh, and simple crops cannot grow well. ”
"So I haven't seen them as a practical benefit, just as an option on the king's side to reduce the cost of weapons and then use them to keep us. In addition, it is now a period of preparation for war, and the internal environment of the Kingdom of Chir is not very good. The people are either radical or feel irrelevant to themselves, and don't care who ends up being the new ruler. The king's side has only been around for more than 40 years, and there are many old people who have survived the last civil war. It's not frequent, it's just that after experiencing this kind of thing once, I'm tired. ”
"It's not very realistic to use it now, but it can be considered later. Kasia nodded after listening to Waters' words, and thought for a moment before saying, "Since you want to help the King's side, you must have your own reasons. I remember when we were still in Imperial Manoma, you and Dya focused on cultivating our customers, as if we were harvesting at a certain time of the year. Let's just think of it this way, the Kingdom of Chir is by far the biggest customer we've cultivated. ”
"It's not a good analogy, Captain. This kind of talk is best not heard by the royal family, some of whom are very status-oriented. Waters couldn't help but laugh, "But that's what it means. As long as the king's side is successful, and then carefully maneuvered, this will surely become a place similar to the headquarters of the factory. ”
"That's good. Kasia replied, "In the next week, you need to get all the materials ready as soon as possible." Once I'm familiar with the general situation here, on the rebel side, I'll do what I can as soon as possible. ”
"Hesley's doing, it seems like he hasn't been back since he came here. ”
"Well, the Knight Chief's side is a lot happier, his character is like that. Some tricky things, or troublesome characters, are all handled by him. When I don't have these situations, I just sit in the factory and the training ground to exercise, and I will guide other people to practice without special things, and he has provided a lot of effective advice on my surgical development project. All in all helped a lot. Waters's words were filled with exclamation, and compared to himself, Hesley only occasionally gave advice on important decisions, and almost did not bother with the rest.
Kasia imagined that he could simulate Heslie's life here in his head.
The next day, near noon, Kasia and Waters finally arrived at the Miklos region. The factory is located in a remote industrial park. In camouflage, the factory looks like a factory for domestic and mining machinery, and the slogan and yellowed brand are also written as "Exquisite Tong Equipment Factory". It is very lively inside, with the production line modeled on Webley's as the center, several pieces of connected factory skin parts are made of several pieces, relying on the control of technology and raw materials, with bullet caliber and quality as the standard, set up several different areas, production requirements of different ammunition.
Heslevin was still in other regions, and Kasia did not see it for the first time. By the time he returned from the rebel-held territory, it was noon on the third day of Kasia's arrival.

"Can't you send a little more people down? Money isn't very useful now, it's still resources and more powerful weapons that matter. The man's words were full of fatigue, "Three months is not enough time at all, the other side has the support of two other countries, although it is secretly, but it may be put on the table at any time and declare war directly on our side, and then send personnel over, it will definitely be too late in time." ”
"I've tried my best to get it from the organization, but unfortunately, we can't afford to send people, so it's up to you. Just because the organization helped you take control of the kingdom of Chir more than forty years ago doesn't mean that it will help you settle the country's internal problems now. As Lord Redmang has said, you can see it as a test for the organization, and if you pass, you will have a huge reward, and if you don't pass, the rebel forces will replace you and become a new member. ”
