Utopia

Because instead of selling to the domestic market, selling to the foreign arms market through special channels is the most profitable way.

[Recommended, the book is really useful, download it here, everyone can try it quickly. ]

The international arms market is a good place where supply exceeds demand anyway. The Kingdom of Negan, a country that uses firearms, also regards firearms as a weapon to make up for the gap in military power, so the domestic market is really not very good.

And compared to the domestic market, there are too many good things abroad that are very suitable for Negan to purchase back.

Anyway, another year passed quickly, and Sogen soon received a notice in the Council Hall, that is, the new Solo City located on the other side of their west was officially established.

"This, this, this..."

"Sogen, your hometown is just across the river."

"It's obvious that the Congress and Her Majesty the Queen have no intention of staying on the Gem Island. And Solo City... No need to ask, that's for sure..."

Sogen, who was teased by the City Lord Minnie, couldn't even get angry. After all, Solo City on the Gem Island was equipped with a large amount of explosives. Now the Ministry of Defense and Her Majesty the Queen have named the new colonial town Solo City.

Presumably, the Kingdom of Negan will disappear from the sight of the Old Continent bit by bit, but such disappearance will not be a simple matter.

As long as the Supreme King is not an idiot, he will definitely intercept it.

Wait?

Doesn't he have that portal?

Although the teleportation distance is not far within 3 kilometers, and there must be a statue of the Black Dragon God and a specially made engraved floor as a condition; but His Royal Highness really didn't think about improvements?

Therefore, Sogen got another document about New Solo City from Lord Minnie, and the content was very simple.

Trade cooperation between the two places.

"Since the straight waterway distance between the two towns is as high as 25 kilometers, they proposed to build a transit station at a peninsula protruding point connected to the land of Male City, 5 kilometers northeast of the other side."

"Lord Minnie, why is this?"

"We don't have enough ships, and we don't have a shipyard responsible for production and maintenance. So now they have come up with a way to build as many small transport ships as possible to solve the transportation problem."

Listening to Lord Minnie's words, Sogen was more and more confused. Can't he just use the portal device to solve it?

No.

If he guessed correctly, the portal device should be classified as a confidential project. Even if he was the first inventor to think of the principle and the first to make a physical object, he couldn't just make it himself.

Moreover, the establishment of such a transit station, which is 69 kilometers away from Marle City in a straight line and also on the north bank of the White Milky Way, has another function - to establish the third town belonging to the Kingdom of Negan.

Of course, if such an autonomous behavior is not approved by Congress, it is absolutely impossible to publish it in such a high-profile manner in the form of official documents.

"In other words, Congress has begun to let us start to develop the civilian shipbuilding industry?"

"It should be. After all, it is time for our colonial towns to transfuse blood to the kingdom, so as to avoid frequent complaints from Congress."

The so-called complaints are very simple. That is, the colony itself is a very troublesome matter that consumes various costs. Moreover, Congress and Her Majesty the Queen agreed to establish colonial towns in order to ensure that their economic development has a higher level of improvement, and also to ensure that the Kingdom of Negan has a safer refuge.

"But we are engaged in shipbuilding ourselves..."

"The premise is that our steel industry and wood processing industry must pass the test. Sogen, you who are responsible for statistics should know what we are not good at."

"Steel. Our steel is mainly used to make weapons."

At this point, Sogen was also very embarrassed. Any chariot will use more than 2 [to be honest, I have been using it recently, both Android and Apple are OK. ] steel, not to mention that the steel consumed by the warship is often more than hundreds of densities.

For this, Sogen checked his notebook. The steel production of Male City is only about 50,000 densities per year, which is barely enough to meet his needs.

"Who should I find for this steel problem..."

The problem of steel is nothing more than one, the number of steel mills is limited. In addition, there are not only few iron mines nearby, but also not enough miners.

To solve...

Cavemen, those laborers who were beaten to kneel down and surrender by the Minotaur tribe are the best solution.

Especially the cavemen have a special ability. Their palms have a hard skin structure similar to palm webs, which can easily push the soil to both sides and harden it.

"Introduce a group of Minotaur and Cavemen."

"Sogen?"

"As long as they are trustworthy, don't reject them."

Sogen's words made the members in the council hall silent. After all, their acceptance of Minotaur and Cavemen is not very high.

"Well... I agree with this."

At this time, Nice suddenly raised his right hand to show his approval, and the members of the Council of State raised their hands one after another.

"Are you sure? Not to introduce more Kalai immigrants? Well, okay. I will talk to the Congress and see if they are willing to accept our opinion."

So in the city of Coron on the Gem Island, a radio telegram document sent from the city of Marle surprised the members of the Congress and Her Majesty the Queen who came to listen to the government.

"Your Majesty, can you agree?"

"Vina, you are the prime minister, you don't have to ask me everything."

"But the minotaur and the caveman...Okay. Please raise your hands and vote."

Compared to a group of officials in the Congress who followed the Eastern human kingdom to raise their hands to vote, His Royal Highness Prince Gru, who came to listen to the government with Her Majesty the Queen, was looking at another document in his hand.

Light weapons equipment reform and saber style.

Needless to say, he would not take the former seriously. After all, the idea of ​​the rear-mounted bolt structure from the Eastern human kingdom is not accepted even by the human kingdom itself, and the funding of the Kingdom of Negan has always been quite limited.

Therefore, he asked the city of Marle to conduct experiments on its own to see what the final opinions of the soldiers would be.

As for the latter, sabers...

To put it bluntly, these are all decorations, high-end toys used to show the identity of the wearer.

But despite this, thanks to tradition and reality, he still thinks that the Kingdom of Negan must have it.

First of all, the saber, just discard it.

It wastes time to process it, and it is the most flashy garbage.

The saber is the king.

Of course, there is also a difference between curved and straight. Curved swords are good for chopping, and straight swords are good for stabbing. He prefers straight swords, although in the tradition of the Kalai family, curved swords have always been the mainstream.

But he has also practiced it himself. The center of gravity of the straight sword is not forward, so it is not easy to have the problem of overcutting...
