Chapter 335: Elevator to Heaven (2/3)
Chapter 335 Elevator to the Sky
With the return of these merchants, the prosperity of Magic Valley City has once again risen to a new level.
What's more, it's become safer.
If in the past, there were pirates who didn't know whether they were alive or dead, and who didn't know the height of the sky, who came to provoke, acted recklessly, and got carried away, but now the pirates who came here are all careful to be human with their tails between their legs.
With good security, there is a good business environment, which is a new experience and feeling that many businessmen in this era have never experienced.
When they arrived, they immediately fell in love with it.
This can also explain why people under the Four Emperors Aunt Group would rather pay a few years of life every year to pay protection money to Aunt than flee from Aunt Da's banner.
There are some people in the movie "Lord of War" who say it well: they live in a country where they will die tomorrow, why should they worry about the virus that will kill them in more than a decade? (referring to AIDS).
This is also the reason why everyone originally intended to give life expectancy as a tax to the aunt - with the protection of the aunt, they may live to die at the age of 50.
But without the protection of the aunt, they may not even live to be thirty or forty years old.
That's why Leo says that even the worst order is better than the best disorder.
Discord represents chaos, it means that you can't even count how many people died, how many people were injured, and how many people survived, it is a complete intelligence black hole, and it is an abyss of despair.
I am afraid that only those who have a sufficient understanding of this era will be able to understand how precious peace is, and they would rather give up half their lives to want peace.
I am afraid that this kind of consciousness can only be understood by the people living in the middle of the globe.
What the revolutionary army has is the violence that suppresses everything, such as "revolution is the direct overthrow of the existing social system by violence", which is already a concept that everyone is familiar with.
And after the revolutionary army had this idea, of course, it practiced it in the same way.
Everyone thinks that they already have the power to directly overthrow the navy, but why they don't carry it out is probably a tacit agreement that only Leo and Sengoku have.
And Sengoku also acquiesced to the existence of Leo's live broadcast bug because of this incident.
This is politics, dirty, but it is necessary, to be able to make the fighters bleed less, and even when certain circumstances and preconditions are reached, ordinary people can bleed less.
There is no need to shed more unnecessary blood to achieve the benefits that can be won at the negotiating table.
Of course, now the navy will still hunt down, chase, and sink when it sees the flag and ships of the revolutionary army, but gradually even the navy begins to wonder about its own faith and justice.
The relationship between them and the revolutionary army was not so tense.
Leo led the group to the outside of the town, the whole Magic Valley City was already full of traffic, but the outskirts of the city looked even more spectacular, a large number of salt pans were being generated, the salt drying method was not unusual, and it was rare to see such a precious thing as cement.
Once the cement technology is mature, it is possible to lay stone slabs from high to low on a large scale, build them in a hollow zigzag, and detoxify the sunken and inclined salt pans one after another, and at the final stage, the salt is enough to feed tens of thousands of people for several months.
This method of drying salt was created by Leo, and the price of salt was easily brought down - for no other reason, except for the cement invested in the early stage, the cost was so low that once they started large-scale operations, they even began to export refined salt.
This fine, snow-white salt can be easily sold for a high price after being encapsulated, and the merchants here can transport the salt around the world, and the price of salt is constantly falling all over the world.
Leo has already used this incident as an example in the cadre training course, it is because of these productive forces, so the new salt will be cheaper, and more poor people can buy salt, can eat salt, their physical strength will become stronger, and their physical strength will become stronger, physical fitness and combat effectiveness will be strengthened accordingly, and at that time, they who want to rebel will not be easily suppressed.
This small detail alone was enough to amaze the cadres of the revolutionary army.
More importantly, it was Leo who put forward the concept of "science and technology is the primary productive force", which allowed the revolutionary army to experience what it means to be productive forces.
As they left the salt pans and walked along the seashore where the embankment had been built towards the shipyard, two huge metal pillars seemed to extend from the sky.
This is an elevator made by Franky, which can carry about two tons of fast up and down between the two places, relying on electric drive, to be honest, this kind of load elevator across the front meter is already a product of black technology in the previous life, but in the world of One Piece, these people add Frankie metal and Anilu batteries, they can easily make this thing, and they can also use the way of hand-cranked people to generate electricity, charge anytime and anywhere, There are even emergency gears inside the elevator that can support its rapid descent or slow ascent - this is also pushed by people.
It can be said that they have taken the "human resources" in the One Piece world to the extreme, and they thoroughly believe in the physical power of ordinary people.
And as Leo stood here, with the press of a button, the elevator was as smooth as Defu and descended from above with a fast, but by no means falling speed.
The whole elevator is trapezoidal, people are cushioned high, only half of the space can be ridden, the lowest place is used to place goods, and the place where the human butt sits is the power cabin, which has batteries, and you can also go down to do coolies in an emergency.
The group sat up directly, and ascended upside down in the rectangular box in a way that Leo couldn't understand.
How to say it - sometimes the black technology in the One Piece world is completely unreasonable, and Leo doesn't bother to care so much and let them play.
He's like a wayward Party A, arrogantly putting forward his own needs, and then the poor Party B in the research department has to meet his requirements as an arrogant Party A, like this elevator, Leo's original idea was a huge airship that could be quickly inflated and deflated.
As a result, Frankie gave Leo such a whole shot, and the super elevator directly made Leo straight.
Is this all right?
To be honest, Leo watched the elevator rise rapidly, and thought of the future of his Coke-powered boat, this kind of "elevator" seemed quite normal.
