Chapter 402: Abner's Decision
Even if there is Sean's fragmentary knowledge as a guide, and the mature printing technology is really tossed, it has wasted a lot of manpower and material resources, and they have taken an unknown number of detours.
Even if the Warlock Alliance is a group of smart people, it is not so simple to start from nothing.
"It's that simple?" Antoine looked incredulous.
"It's that simple!" Speaker Abner nodded in affirmation.
"It's that simple, but no one has ever thought of it before?" Antoine still couldn't accept it.
"It's not that no one thought of it, and even if it did, it didn't make sense, because there wasn't so much paper in your hand, and if you were just transcribing a book, would it be easier for you to engrave a bunch of seals and print it on it, or would it be simple to transcribe it directly?" asked Abner, spreading his hands.
This method of printing by means of stamps is an adjunct to a large amount of paper, without which it would have no meaning.
"So, our focus this time is on the technology of making this new type of paper?" asked Aubrey.
"That's right, as long as we can have a lot of paper, we can solve the problem of transcription, I don't believe that so many of us can't even solve this problem. Antoine gritted his teeth.
The Warlock Alliance is most proud of the preservation and transmission of knowledge.
The way paper is now being updated and transcribed as a carrier of knowledge has undergone technological changes without being under their guidance, which makes them very faceless.
"Antoine Scholar is too obsessed, whether we can get this new paper manufacturing technology from the hands of the Eternal Night Army, the emergence of this new technology is a blessing to scholars all over the world, and the dissemination of knowledge will be much easier, isn't this what we have always wanted to do, but we have not been able to do? Abner is clearly thinking a little bit more about the problem.
After a moment's thought, Speaker Abner continued: "In order to express our sincerity, I propose to sort out some of the unique books in the Great Library, and take them to the Eternal Night Command by me and the Antoine Scholars, not to give them away, but to print them into a book with the help of their hands, and spread them to the world, so that they can play their due value, and at the same time prevent them from being damaged and the knowledge on them will be lost forever." ”
"The Speaker's suggestion does make some sense, but it is a bit risky to go all the way with a bunch of precious solitary books, and if you are not careful, you will let them be ruined, so it is better to go on the road first, and our side will organize people to sort out and transcribe these solitary books, and then send someone to transport some of these transcriptions to the Eternal Night Commander, as a blueprint, and the effect is the same. The Fellow of Garr, who has always been somewhat reticent, suggested.
"It's really safer to do that. Speaker Abner did not insist on his opinion, "However, this transcription needs to be cautious and cautious, whether it is the language or the writing of the text, we must retain the taste of the original book as much as possible, otherwise once they are used as a blueprint to engrave, the errors on it will be circulated all over the world, and our sin will be great." ”
"Understand, I'll arrange for someone to double-check to make sure they're accurate. Fellow Garr nodded earnestly.
"Then let's go our separate ways, sort out the solitary things, it's best to start now, and when we go, it's better to take some with us. Speaker Abner suggested.
"No problem, I'll arrange for people to do this as soon as possible. ”
After some discussion and making sure that there were no other omissions, the five powerful figures of the Warlock Alliance dispersed separately to digest what they had gained this time.
They are also preparing for two things, on the one hand, they are trying to get it from the leaders of the Eternal Night, and on the other hand, they want to study it themselves.
These scholars have their own pride, and they can make anything that others can get their hands on.
Sean didn't know anything about the Flower Language Plateau, and even if they did meet, it would be months later.
Even if he knew, Sean wouldn't take it to heart.
The Warlock Alliance is not the first, nor will it be the last, to remember and try to imitate what is in the hands of the Eternal Night Leader.
It is inevitable that any valuable commodity, as soon as it begins to circulate, will be targeted.
In the previous life, the flower planter relied on various imitations to become famous, and in the end, he won a basket in a column, and the imitation exceeded the original.
In this life, the whole world is poor and white, and Sean can only make his own originals, waiting for others to copy and plagiarize himself.
There is no way to prohibit this kind of thing, is it for fear of being imitated and plagiarized, and the goods that have been developed with great difficulty will not be circulated?
If the vision is really so short-sighted, Sean will not be innovative.
The only thing they can do is to keep the original of the Eternal Night Army Leader from standing still, but rushing forward at a faster pace, always leaving them behind.
Therefore, half of the Kingsley family's first war reparations (fifteen million royal gold coins) went directly into the pockets of the major research departments of the Eternal Night Army.
No one can count how many research departments the Eternal Night Commander has now.
They are like vines that keep growing, and when one problem is solved, two new issues may be extended, and three other issues will emerge before these two new issues have not been solved.
However, these topics cannot be ignored yet, and if they are useless now, it does not mean that they will be useless in the future.
These basic topics are the foundation for solving higher problems, and only by laying a good foundation can all aspects of the Eternal Night Army, including black technology, have the possibility of a blowout.
In terms of research, the biggest headache for Sean now is not the problem of funding, even if there is no injection of war reparations, the Eternal Night Commander is not missing this piece of financial allocation.
In addition to a part of the official trade income of the Eternal Night Army Lord, part of it will be invested in the factory to expand production, and a part of the special research fund will be withdrawn to support the territory to climb the technology tree.
The former is an unexpected joy, and the latter is a trickle.
This bit of strategic vision, not to mention Sean, will be shared by generals with a little knowledge.
Restricting the Eternal Night Army's research career to flourish is talent.
To be more precise, the research talents of the Eternal Night Army Leader have never been enough, and every time they are generals, they are now cultivated and used.
For this reason, when Sean was still in the Eternal Night Army and the Eternal Night Army, when the finances were extremely poor, he implemented various basic education in the territory to make a talent reserve for future development.
This was not without controversy within the Eternal Night Army, especially those who were not from the Boy Army, and did not have a deep sense of the fact that knowledge is power.
I always feel that it is very unwise to invest so much human and financial resources in the children of ordinary people.
With this spare money, it is better to invest it in army building.
However, at that time, most of them had not long joined the Eternal Night Army, and they did not have much power to speak, and they were all cautious and did not make a sound.
Many years later, they couldn't help but rejoice that they didn't speak out back then.
Once again, it turns out that Sean has a prescience that ordinary people can't imagine, and every path he chooses is correct, at least so far.
Many policies that currently seem extremely absurd or thankless, after a few years or even more than a dozen years of fermentation, will reap several times or even dozens of times the benefits of the Eternal Night Military Leader.
Outsiders only saw the strength of the troops led by the Eternal Night, and attributed their rise to luck.
It happened to coincide with the outbreak of the slave gladiator uprising of the Manyu Army, which gave it enough time and space to develop.
The re-flow of the Jacob River allowed their goods to flow out of the mountains and plundered them a great deal of wealth.
And indirectly affect the Swamp of Despair, giving them a new direction of development.
But they didn't think about it.
Under what circumstances did the Manyu Army lead slave gladiator revolt break out?
If it weren't for being pitted by the Eternal Night Army, the order of the Manyu Army would have fallen into a state of chaos, and it was still a question whether the slave gladiator uprising would be able to sit on the throne.
The re-flow of the Jacob River is not the power of heaven and earth, but the result of the great power of man.
If it was not the Eternal Night Warlord that rose in the Andes Mountains, but the Walled City Alliance, would there be a resurgence of the Jacob River?
Even if the Jacobs River can be re-flowed.
If Sean had not presciently established a good relationship with the princess regent, developed the shipbuilding industry in advance, and prepared all kinds of competitive goods.
Even in the face of this convenient water transportation route, they could only stare dryly like the lords of other territories.
Vision.
Not everyone can do it.
Sean also took advantage of his previous life.
Because of this series of achievements as a foreshadowing, even if Sean launched an incredible decision in the military leader, others did not dare to easily jump out and veto it, but carefully weighed it and weighed it again, deduced and deduced.
People like McGee the Skullcrusher and Rabindranath Tagore are more straightforward, and most of them will directly ask Sean about his purpose and future plans.
However, some things can be said clearly, and some things Sean himself doesn't dare to bite hard, so he can only be vague.
No one is perfect, Sean only has the experience of his past life, but he does not have the ability to predict the future, and there will always be some decisions that are not big or small.
It's just that many small mistakes are overshadowed by the dazzling results of other successful decisions.
As the Eternal Night Leader grows bigger and bigger, Sean's experience in his previous life is almost squeezed out, and many times, he has to study frantically to barely keep up with the pace of the Eternal Night Leader's development and growth.
Fortunately, they are now a big business, the ability to resist risks has been greatly improved, as long as they can grasp the general direction and do not have problems, professional problems will be handed over to professional talents to solve, such as ceramic factories, steel mills, arsenals, shipyards, paper mills and other professional manufacturers, Sean has rarely gone.
Even if they did, most of them were to inspect rather than make suggestions as they had done before.
One is that my own experience can no longer keep up, and if I make another suggestion, it will be a blind command.
Second, where did he get so much time?
Not to mention anything else, speaking of shipyards alone, there are as many as twenty-three official shipyards of the Eternal Night Army, not to mention the private micro-shipyards that have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
As I said before, the Eternal Night Military Leader was an out-and-out territorial business model at the beginning, all commodities and profits were territorial, and both workers and merchants actually worked for the military leader, and even if the commercial value created was great, it had little to do with them.
The flower planter where Sean was in his previous life has used history to tell him that there are pros and cons to this method.
Needless to say, from the factory to sales, the interests of the territory are all eaten, and the benefits can be maximized.
The disadvantage is that human beings are inert and selfish, and even if they don't have it at the beginning, with the passage of time and the changes in the environment, people's hearts will be corrupted little by little.
When they see that the huge benefits are all eaten by the territory, but they are taking a negligible dead salary, some people's psychology will slowly become unbalanced.
Those who don't have rights in their hands are better, at most they are passive and sabotage, and they are waiting for death.
If you have power in your hands, it will be dangerous, and some careful thinking will spread in your heart, and you will wonder if you can take a little bit from it and put it in your pocket?
Although from the very beginning, the Eternal Night Military Leader has become the Military Supervision Yuan, with the rapid development of the economy, it has been extended to the Economic Supervision Yuan, which specializes in supervising this area, and the punishment is quite large, exceeding a certain amount, once implemented, it will be directly guillotined.
Even so, there will still be people who can't resist the temptation and take risks.
Don't question the speed of corruption, although the Eternal Night Commander is a brand-new force, the speed of the economic explosion is too fast, and the amount of money involved is too large, so that many people who can't keep up with the psychological construction are psychologically unbalanced, and clues in this regard begin to appear.
Although no one has touched the minimum yet, some people have begun to test the attitude of the Eternal Night Commander.
The Economic Inspectorate had no choice but to launch a rectification campaign in this regard.
It's just that this not only hugs those corrupt elements, but some good people will also be involved in it, and it is easy to break their hearts.
In many cases, the rectification movement is not what the top wants to do, but the people below have gone too far and have to make this decision.
This method treats the symptoms rather than the root cause.
Well, the scar forgets the pain, and it is also a common disease of people.
As long as that huge source of temptation remains, sooner or later someone will be tempted to reach for it.
When it can't be plugged and everyone becomes a moth, it is also the time when the system falls apart.
Is it true that the state-owned enterprises that planted flowers in the first place were privatized because they were not profitable and had no market competitiveness?
There may be reasons for this, but there are very few of them, and more of them are the interests of state-owned enterprises, which are mothed by those moths. Unscrupulous means, life hollowed out.
Sean didn't sit back and wait for the situation in his territory to continue to deteriorate, but took a three-pronged approach.
As the economy of the Eternal Night Army took off, the financial resources in their hands became richer, and the salaries of all walks of life were constantly rising, so as to delay their dissatisfaction as much as possible, and at the same time strengthen the ideological cultivation to continue the life of this system.
It is believed that with a tough attitude and the strong supervision of the Economic Supervision Yuan, in the next two or three decades, it will not completely collapse, and the folk customs of the Eternal Night Army are still very simple.
The other is to encourage the emergence of private factories and private enterprises.
In the territory factory and territory caravan, if you feel aggrieved and dislike those who make less money, you can choose to go out and work alone, as long as you are not trying to transfer benefits from the territory factory or caravan, or violate the law and discipline, the overall policy of the Eternal Night Military Leader is supportive.
It is true that there is a seller's market now, and all kinds of goods are in short supply, but the Eternal Night Warlord must think about the future.
Economic development is like a snowball, with enough capital, it will roll bigger and bigger, and when commodities start to get rich, someone needs to go out and expand the market.
These solo businessmen are the best candidates.
If the Eternal Night Army Leader has enough merchants, will Sean still need to use the grain merchants of the Flower Language Plateau to open up the market of the Flower Language Plateau?
They only need to slightly adjust the incentive policies in the military leader, such as taking the first line of the Huayu Plateau with preferential prices, and countless merchants will flock to take the lead for the Eternal Night military leader.
At that time, the wealth will not flow out at all, and they will all bring it back to the Eternal Night Command, and then continue to invest in expanding production, and the corresponding taxes of the territory will follow.
It's a virtuous circle.
Economic invasion, economic plunder, those individual businessmen are better than the army.
In the final analysis, the Eternal Night Army Leader has been established for too short a time, the strategic layout has not been completely completed, and all parties have not been able to keep up, and the road they have to go in the future is still extremely long.
When the Eternal Night Army was busy from top to bottom, Sean was much more relaxed than before.
That's what comes with the benefits of a complete system in the first place.
All departments, each with its own duties.
All the soldiers, every according to their command.
All the people, every man shall keep his post.
He just needs to grasp the general direction.
