Necromancer: Becoming a God from a Lord

After some bargaining through the spell messenger, Harvey got the first purchase order of the "Magic Stone Steam Engine", and the buyer was still from the old partner Dragonstone Chamber of Commerce.

Compared with the leeks he had cut in the spellcaster forum, the transaction amount was actually not too high.

A "Magic Stone Steam Engine" was priced at 150 gold pounds, including the machine body and a complete set of replacement spare parts, as well as special operation training.

However, the newly established machinery factory has a low output. Limited by the workers' technical proficiency and cast iron output, it can only assemble a maximum of five qualified finished machines per month. The Dragonstone Chamber of Commerce's lion-sized order of 20 units can only be postponed to four months for delivery in batches.

But Harvey was still very satisfied with the deal. The order amount was a full 3,000 gold pounds, and all the materials used were produced by the territory. The iron ore from the southwest mining area was transported back to the iron smelting plant in the territory to directly smelt iron ingots, and then transferred to the cast iron workshop to complete the smelting of various parts, and finally sent to the machinery factory for assembly.

This is already a very complete set of industrial production chains.

Putting aside the cost of labor and raw materials, the net profit can be close to 50%, allowing Harvey to make a net profit of 1,500 gold pounds.

In addition, the subsequent equipment maintenance, parts replacement, modification and many other after-sales support need to be sent back to the pioneer territory. This continuous income will gradually increase the profit as the production and sales of the machine increase, and it can provide a large number of jobs for the territory and cultivate a very mature group of technical workers.

The pioneer territory originally received refugees and slaves living in the northern wilderness. They have been homeless for generations, or enslaved by evil orcs and bound to livestock pastures. The offspring born will have the same future and cannot see any hope.

Before coming to the territory, most people lived a numb life day after day. What drove them to work and hunt was not the desire from the heart, but the constant hunger and the whips and sharp blades of the evil orc slave owners, which led to their extremely low efficiency in production and labor, and very high loss of manpower.

There are also a large number of poor people in the southern continent who have lost their land or are driven by high taxes to flee their homeland and are forced to become serfs.

Harvey believes that the low social productivity during this period is probably caused by this unreasonable and cruel serfdom system, which is the biggest enemy of the industrialization process and must be abolished in his territory.

Therefore, Harvey provides all refugees who join the pioneer territory with an opportunity to change their identity and destiny, work hard to earn income, accumulate assets for themselves and benefit their descendants.

Or receive education, complete the upgrade from physical work to technical work, and finally achieve class transition.

Among them, professional soldiers in the regular army and managers in municipal departments are typical. They are the first group of people to taste the dividends of class leap, which will undoubtedly greatly encourage later generations to follow and quickly integrate into the institutional ecology of the territory.

In addition to the machinery factory, Harvey also plans to build new textile factories, steel mills, shipyards, steam carriage shops and many other production and manufacturing ports that are in line with the development of industrialization.

After all, it is impossible for Harvey to achieve the complete industrialization of the territory by just piecing together a magic steam engine with his shallow experience as a time traveler.

Moreover, he was not a technician in the relevant profession in his previous life, and he could not even understand the mechanical design drawings.

Only by attracting enough people to participate in the manufacturing, transportation and sales of industrialized products can this wave of development be truly set off.

As long as these basic industrial prototypes appear in the territory and get on the right track, there will be an endless supply of supporting industries in the future. Letting them develop freely at the beginning may be inefficient and the product qualification rate may be terrible, but they will gradually become proficient and train qualified professional workers.

As long as there are suitable people, Harvey has the confidence to not only realize the internal circulation of various materials and commodities in the territory, but also take into account the import and export business of generating income, and spread his business empire throughout the southern countries.

…

"Sir, the inspection department you requested to set up, the office space of the police department, has been completed. Yesterday, the construction department has completed the internal details. The subsequent recruitment of personnel..."

Reiner held the work record manual and stood behind Harvey to report.

"How is the recruitment? Are there not enough people who come to apply? I remember that the salary is not lower than that of farms and factories..."

For a long time before, all the work related to security and crime inspection in the territory was directly handed over to the patrol team of the defense army, but this is not a long-term solution, especially as the territory wall is about to be completed. This group of soldiers who were originally responsible for the defense of the territory will always shoulder the defense of the territory wall and the daily vigilance around the territory.

The armed forces of the army should not directly intervene in the internal supervision of the territory. The magic guns in the hands of the soldiers must always be consistent and consistent with the outside world, and they must never aim the muzzle at their compatriots at will.

Therefore, it is necessary to have a semi-armed organization independent of the army and the territory laws that came into being at this time.

The formulation, interpretation and adjustment of the law are of course best in the hands of Harvey, the supreme ruler of the territory.

However, a simple and effective inspection agency is the basic guarantee for the smooth implementation of laws and regulations.

"The Department of Police is used to supervise the municipal center and to identify and arrest all individuals or groups that may endanger the stability of the territory. This department needs to be directly responsible to me and is completely independent of the military and municipal departments..."

Harvey turned his head and ordered to Lenner, "So when it comes to recruiting people, you must firmly control it, only choose northern refugees with innocent status and simple origins, and do not let a person from the southern border invade in, so as to avoid accidents." .”

Reiner nodded and honestly recorded what Harvey said.

There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!

"Sir, what I wanted to say before is the issue of recruiting personnel... The Defense Army and the North Frontier Army have just experienced an enrollment expansion. Young people who meet the enlistment requirements are more willing to join the army than join...uh, the Police Department."

"After all, the monthly salary of an ordinary soldier is 120 gold yuan, and he can still keep food and accommodation in the military camp." Leonard paused, his tone was quite complicated, "Even factory workers can get 100 gold yuan a month If the salary, the police department’s recruitment salary is equivalent to that of workers, those young people who meet the standards prefer factory work, after all, they can learn a skill that can be with them..."

Harvey patted his forehead and then remembered the various jobs he had offered casually, which seemed a little casual and unreasonable because it was the distribution of printed banknotes.

Basic production departments such as farms, factories and mining areas should naturally encourage everyone to actively participate in labor by using the form of more work and more income, stable basic salary and floating overtime salary.

Institutions such as the military, municipal administration and police department should fix a higher salary quota, which should not only ensure "high salary and integrity" but also clarify the "promotion channel", otherwise a group of government borers with corpses in their place will gradually be raised. It has a harmful effect on the future development of the territory.

"Renner, prepare a set of paper and pen for me. I want to readjust the salary system for all professional positions in the territory..."

Reiner was shocked and said blankly: "Sir, is this going to cut the salary?"

Harvey laughed and said, "Of course not. The re-adjustment means an overall salary increase! Encourage everyone to work actively!"

As for different positions, the natural increase is different...
