They sent people to negotiate with the aviation bureau about the transportation safety of their own aircraft, and paid a portion of the profits to put their own aircraft in their name. They did not require military protection, and they only needed the right to use the spray-painted logo. At the same time, we will conduct some investigation on all aspects of the trading target floating island to ensure that no one dares to move it before boarding its own plane to transport goods.
The real strength that can be relied on can be increased by sending overseas students.
The Phoenix Kingdom itself does not support the international student system, but the sponsored admission quota of the Magic Academy treats both domestic and foreign students equally, and you can send people to it by paying money.
The Ruiweile Factory can scrape together enough money to afford the plane, so the profits are certainly good. Especially under the current situation, the company is also a pastoral area that produces food. Food is in short supply. It is not a problem to concentrate resources to support dozens of international students a year. big.
There is no need for a contract of renunciation by the international students. If the Phoenix Kingdom discovers this kind of thing, all cooperation may be canceled on the spot. The international students only need to serve the factory for twenty years after graduation.
The graduation standard of the magic academy is to be a three-ring mage or confirmed to be hopeless. Without the support of traditional teachers, a three-ring mage will be very short of money. It does not take twenty years. As long as there is a sponsorship relationship of ten years or so, normal people will appreciate it. For some of the seedlings selected from non-nobles, there are still a small number of abnormalities.
It takes a long time to obtain safety from investing in overseas students, but the threat of demons and possible counterattacks from within Wengji may come at any time.
A dozen months ago, when the demon clan was blocked from moving southward on the eastern front of the Phoenix Kingdom, they organized a wave of attacks across the entire territory. When the demon clan failed to achieve results, it was only a part of the sporadic individuals that overflowed, and it had already posed a considerable threat to this pastoral area with a small population.
Although in the eyes of most shareholders, sporadic demons can only threaten the people who have no power to protect themselves, and their degree is not even comparable to the threat of the Phoenix Kingdom.
Rui Weile, who has lived and studied in the Phoenix Kingdom for several years, understands that the Phoenix King is the kind of traditional ruler found in storybooks who must have a legitimate reason to launch military actions. As long as he does not commit suicide, the Phoenix King will There will be no military conflict if there is an interest in one's own chassis.
On the contrary, the demon clan, which only threatens some herders and livestock, now seems to be a greater threat.
The counterattack from Wengji territory was even more obvious.
The earl's death could not be kept secret forever. Even if he was an insignificant fringe nobleman, and the local taxes were paid in full afterwards, no matter the coveted land or property, someone would one day use it to cause trouble.
In the context of floating islands, it is unrealistic to send troops in large numbers. It is more likely that a strongman or a small team will come to kill the relevant personnel by cleaning up the rebels.
Among the group of shareholders, there is no one who can live up to expectations. At most, they only have four rings. The people they invite may be a little more powerful, but it is a bit unrealistic to expect people to work hard.
If an external security team does not come up with a lineup that looks much stronger than the "rebellion team", they will probably run away just to show off. It is not impossible to even kill the employer first.
After all the previous expenditures, we can no longer afford to maintain a strong enough security team. ….
Just when they were worried about this, the Phoenix Kingdom opened the foreign trade license for magic firearms. After buying a batch and testing it, they found that the problem would be solved.
The threshold for using magic firearms is extremely low. Even a rough guy on the street who trains for a few days can pose a fatal threat to noble mages. Once the number is gathered, high-level magic shields can be forcibly penetrated.
It can not only be used as a tool to "defend demons" promoted by the manufacturer, but can also be used to attack high-level professionals.
Even though his own shareholders are weak, they still have the existence of the Four Rings, and they are not ignorant of the professional system.
Compared with the armed potential brought by magic firearms, the biggest drawback of professionals is the insufficient number of people.
There is no need for five rings, just four-star magic swordsmen and mages. They rarely cooperate with others in battle, because in most cases there is no need to cooperate. They can usually join forces to do commercial security work or take risks. , are all professionals with a third ring or lower.
In line with the previous speculation, a large army will not be sent to suppress it. It will threaten all shareholders. There is a high probability that it will be a solo action.
Or in the form of a two-person reception.
Even though this kind of strong man may be able to kill dozens or hundreds of people with a single shot of magic, the threshold for magic firearms is low enough. If one hundred is not enough, it will be one thousand, and if it is not enough, it will be five thousand. There is always a quantity that can destroy one with one shot. Six rings.
As for the seventh-ring professional who can easily carry out devastating blows to city-level targets... To be honest, there is no particularly good way, just wait for death.
But having said that, a big shot in the Seventh Ring would not go to war over an area of 100,000 people that is mainly pastoral. It would be too miserable to get to this point.
Anyway, what Ruiweile Factory can do is to organize a security force using magic firearms in the name of local officials. While protecting itself, it will also use some power to protect the herdsmen.
Ruiweile's family couldn't be the only ones who quickly learned to arm themselves with magic guns.
In the general situation of floating islands, it is impossible to say that the strongmen on each floating island are safe and sound. Especially the entire northern pastoral area was a relatively remote area before the disaster, and the Wengji Kingdom could not control it.
The surrounding area soon underwent lord enclosure-like changes.
Of course, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, everyone still does not have an independent name, and will maintain a certain tax and tribute ratio.
At this time, shareholders were surprised to realize that the "productivity" that Ruiweile always talked about was really working.
The floating island where the Ruiweile Factory is located includes the White Veil City, which was the first to trade with the Phoenix Kingdom. It was developed under the influence of border trade before the floating island became a floating island. The White Veil City can also be used as a representative of the floating island.
In half a year, Baisha Fudao recruited and trained about 5,000 soldiers, half of whom were full-time and half part-time.
The concept of full-time soldiers was naturally copied directly from the Phoenix Kingdom. There is no need to learn anything special. As long as you have a little understanding of the treatment of their military relatives, you will know that these soldiers will be more willing to die.
It's just that Baisha Floating Island is only an area of 100,000 people after all. About half of the people here are gathered due to earlier border trade. Even if you have tax rights and manufacturer profit control rights, it will be difficult to maintain a larger scale. army. ….
However, in order to deal with the possible large-scale invasion of demons or other situations, more than 2,000 part-time soldiers similar to reserves have been collected. In addition to regular training every year, they usually only receive a small subsidy. They can be used in real battles and bear the burden. It's not that big, which is nice.
Other floating islands that have begun to arm themselves are not so good. Most floating islands only maintain a team of 500 to 800 people, and there are even fewer.
Among them is the "productivity" gap.
The army is an organization that needs to continuously spend money and has basically zero output. Its size does not depend on the stock of money, but is linked to its ability to make money. If there is not enough money-making ability, even if you buy more guns at the beginning, the size of the army will decrease. Shrink quickly.
The earning power of a floating island mainly refers to taxes.
Baisha Island not only has the Ruiweile Factory, but also has some Xiaoqiang ranches. Herdsmen also generally have several mobile Xiaoqiang farmhouses with pallets as nests. Raising Xiaoqiang is also part of the animal husbandry industry, and can produce meat annually based on the per capita care capacity. In terms of volume, it is about three times that of traditional animal husbandry.
There is also a certain amount of Xiaoqiang breeding on the surrounding floating islands, but the scale and popularity are not as high as in the first area that came into contact with Xiaoqiang animal husbandry.
An actual investigation will reveal that the farmers on Baisha Island have a higher average output, and part of this output will be transported to the outer islands and the Phoenix Kingdom through the east wind of the Ruiweile Factory in exchange for real money.
Each person’s little increase is reflected in taxes through transaction behavior, and when added together, there will be thousands more troops.
Thousands of magic riflemen may not be able to support the kingdomization of the floating island, but they can also squeeze out some people to take care of the safety of nearby pastures. A safer production environment will naturally lead to higher meat production, not to mention continuing to expand the size of the army. , at least it can be maintained.
As for the Phoenix Kingdom's recent promotion of camel machines to completely replace animal power, it has little to do with pastoral areas.
Pastoral areas least need transport workers
Even if a vehicle needs to be transferred, the speed of the herd is limited rather than the transportation tool. Mechanized things will annoy the stupid herd and cause some weird problems that will make the movement slower.
Smart people always have different perspectives than ordinary people, and Ruiweile soon realized that there was an opportunity to expand production. .
