Tang Mo was used to the vague smoke on the battlefield, breathing the fresh air and enjoying the bright sunshine.
He came back, bringing more than two hundred soldiers and the ashes of those who died in the invasion of southern Sussus to the place where he started.
Everything here has changed drastically, and even Tang Mo himself can't recognize it.
When he saw that the wall of his factory had been built along the road for one kilometer, and now if you didn't go through the gate, you had to take a long way to enter the factory, he knew that there were several people who stayed here to look after the house. The old man is not lazy at all.
"It's so nice to see you, my master." Leo stretched out his arm and greeted Tang Mo who returned home with a warm hug.
"Thank you!" Tang Mo hugged him and then hugged Roger, who was standing there smiling and saying nothing: "I'm back! Uncle Roger."
"It's good to come back! It's good to come back!" Roger also hugged Tang Mo, then looked at the soldiers in the new barracks who were standing there waiting for Tang Mo's order to disband, and raised his voice to encourage: "You are all good! You all are good! Brought back victory and glory!”
Tang Mo turned around and looked at these neatly dressed winter clothes, standing there with their heads held high, like soldiers with green pine trees, and their faces were full of smiles.
He loudly said to these soldiers: "From today on, you are no longer the new military camp in Beiling. Your identity now is the security force of the Datang Group."
Everyone was quiet and listened to Tang Mo's instructions. Tang Mo did not hesitate and went directly to the topic: "You will soon be expanded into a regiment. This is a special formation of the Tang Group's troops. It is completely different from the previous regiments."
He briefly talked about the future troop composition and organization: "In fact, the entire regiment will be under the jurisdiction of three combined battalions. Each battalion will be under the jurisdiction of three infantry companies and a direct field artillery company. In the future, communications will also be added. Support and Logistics Supply Transportation Company.”
Then he changed the topic and continued to talk about rewards: "Gentlemen, you will all become the backbone of this team, and everyone will be promoted. I hope... each of you will cherish this hard-won opportunity."
"Long live Datang Group!" After hearing this, everyone's spirits obviously improved a lot, and they cheered loudly one after another: "Long live!"
"Okay! That's it! Everyone go take a shower! It stinks!" Tang Mo ordered to disperse: "Disband!"
"Oh!" All the soldiers cheered immediately, and then the soldiers did not get into chaos, but lined up neatly and walked into the factory gate singing songs.
The workers and family members crowded on both sides of the road began to applaud these heroes. Due to the season, they could not find flowers, so they had to rely on cheers to greet these heroes.
The women who stayed here cried with joy when they saw their children or men. Around them, there were inevitably lonely figures who could not find their families.
"Find a good place to bury the ashes of the heroes. It will be our martyrs cemetery from now on, understand?" Tang Mo looked at Redman standing next to him and asked.
"Yes! Your Majesty!" Redman immediately saluted and then walked towards the carriage not far behind him.
"We lost almost 20 outstanding soldiers. These were the first batch of outstanding soldiers to join the army! In the future, they will be division commanders or even army commanders..." Tang Mo cursed in a low voice with distress, with a sullen expression on his face. Everyone can see it.
He handed the gloves to Garza, the young apprentice who came to greet him, then looked at Parker, who was standing nervously, and said to him, Matthews and others: "I brought back a large number of orders from North Ridge. You have been busy these past few days."
"Order? New weapons order?" Matthews was very interested in this matter and asked: "How much is it?"
"The Earl hopes to arm two more legions of soldiers, so he is going to let us produce supporting weapons for one legion first." Tang Mo replied: "Including the corresponding C64 field guns, 10 for one legion! Then we will fill in the previous gaps. , a total of 24 cannons.”
Matthews knew how valuable the C64 howitzers were. The Earl purchased 30 of them at once, which would definitely cost a lot of money.
Because of the advanced nature of this thing, Tang Mo was probably asking for 300 gold coins for a cannon. After all, 30 artillery pieces are a full 10,000 gold coins!
So, Matthews made a joke, looked at the long row of carriages behind him, and asked with a smile: "Good guy! Don't tell me, these cars behind you are filled with gold coins."
"Eh? You already know this? No way?" Tang Mo pretended to be surprised and looked at Matthews and said.
Matthews' expression immediately changed. He looked at the carriage and then at Tang Mo: "No, you went to Susas Kingdom to rob?"
"Do you know this?" Tang Mo looked surprised again and asked the old dwarf with a smile.
"Hahahaha!" Wes on the side couldn't help laughing. While laughing, he patted Tiger's shoulder, who was standing upright.
"Okay! Gentlemen! Now I want to discuss a very important issue with you... Why, spend the money in your hand quickly!" Tang Mo made a show-off gesture, and then swaggered towards his factory .
One day later, the entire Port of Bunas went crazy.
Yes, Tang Mo, who had been missing for nearly two months, suddenly sent people to Bunas in December and started purchasing all kinds of things.
It was like spending money like water. Tang Mo didn't even bargain for the things he wanted, he just spent money, causing the whole Bunas to enter a strange carnival.
Tang Mo purchased another large area of land and put his name on almost all the wasteland north of Bunas.
Because of the great victory in Beiling and the friendship of Sheriff Sauron, the whole process went extremely smoothly. Tang Mo turned the Vicious Forest into his own property without even spending a penny.
Later, Tang Mo also obtained the legal right to build a port on his territory, and all of this together only cost him 1,300 gold coins.
So Tang Mo spent a lot of money to buy the only chemical workshop in Bunas, including the people inside and the land below.
Later, he also bought the hotel next to the Silver Fox Tavern, including the carriage shop affiliated to the hotel. As a result, the idle guys at the Silver Fox Tavern had another place to take care of.
Then, Tang Mo bought the hotel, the wine shop next to the hotel, and finally the brothel next to the wine shop.
He spent a lot of money to buy shares in cement workshops, brick-burning workshops, cloth and garment shops, salt farms, pastures, etc. Even the coolies who handled the docks became his wage earners.
The result was such a round of purchasing, and he was pleasantly surprised to find that he had just barely spent half of the gold coins in his hand.
Everyone knew that Tang Mo was rich, but no one knew how rich he really was. I only saw him sending people to purchase all kinds of messy things every day, but I never saw him when he was short of money.
He paid all the taxes for next year, and even gave the mayor an additional bribe of 100 gold coins - a bribe of this level was usually used to bribe nobles, but Tang Mo chose to use it Gave it to a mayor.
As a result, the mayor almost gave up his office to Tang Mo. The guards in the town were ordered to be courteous to Mr. Tang Mo's people, and the legend that the Sheriff personally escorted Tang Mo to the carriage was spread by everyone.
A businessman can enjoy treatment similar to that of a nobleman, which made all the residents of Bunas realize that Bunas may really have an extra earth emperor, a earth emperor who can cover the sky with one hand.
The cold winter made the clouds of war dissipate. The Kingdom of Wright defeated Susus and won the war, which became a topic of conversation for everyone throughout the winter.
This winter, people in the small town of Bunas were surprised to find that the weather seemed to be much warmer than before.
Little do they know that this is all because of a huge factory being built on the edge of their city that burns coal every day.
People in this world don't know that the temperature in cities is much higher than in suburbs, because they have no experience in this area.
They just know that looking from a distance, they can see countless huge chimneys, billowing black smoke day and night.
As soon as the white snow stopped, a light layer of soot covered the white snow, making the entire Bunas look dirty.
But the people here are full of happy smiles - the workers have received large salaries, which has also boosted the economy of Bunas. Everyone will go to the town to spend money, so almost everyone in the town has received Higher income.
This is simply stimulating domestic demand on a small scale and revitalizing the economic cycle. Now Bunas has become a vine attached to Tangmo's factory, but no one has realized this yet.
What made Tang Mo depressed was that after the second month of settlement, his workers' consumption in Bunas stimulated local economic growth. Almost one-third of the money he spent came back to him as profits. pocket.
While Roger and others were stunned, Tang Mo braved the heavy snow and loaded another batch of parts onto the carriage and sent them to Beiling, where these equipments were in urgent need.
"Well, if nothing else happens, the payment for Beiling will arrive soon. We have another ten thousand gold coins in the account..." Tang Mo touched his nose with his hand and looked at the things behind him as if showing off. The confidants couldn't hide the smiles on their faces: "Are you numb? This feeling of making money faster than spending money..."
