Chapter 273: Development and Cooperation (II)
To tell the truth, everyone present is a human spirit, and as soon as Lu Shuang finished speaking, they roughly knew what Lu Shuang was thinking about in his stomach.
Among the twelve player forces present, if you want to say which one has the most power in the game, which one has the most high-end talents and the most developed manufacturing industry, there is no doubt that it is Lu Shuang's Flying Sky City.
Since the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Rebellion in February of the seventh year of Guanghe, they have more or less sent people to pay attention to the movements of Feitian City, whether it is in Guangling County, or in the southern and northern wars, the army of Feitian City has never lacked equipment and materials, and even provided 200,000 fifth-order soldier suits and 50,000 sixth-order soldier suits in order to assist Celestial Elephant City, as well as a small number of seventh- and eighth-order soldier suits.
You must know that this is not as simple as building an iron sword and a piece of leather armor, especially the equipment of the seventh and eighth rank soldiers, the territory needs at least a few king-level life occupations and at least twenty special life occupations, and there is a certain reserve of strategic materials before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, in order to meet the continuous operation of an army of three or four hundred thousand people for half a year at the same time.
If it is really according to what Lu Shuang said, the players in the entire Chinese region are engaged in free trade, then the biggest winner is undoubtedly him. How profitable a weapon and equipment is, the presidents present are all clear.
However, if Lu Shuang really trades with foreign countries, they will still do this business. The president of the Yonghui Guild, Ji Day, also said just now that the current situation is not that everyone has no money to consume, but that there are no goods to consume, and sometimes there are not things that have value in the market. If you want to recover the vitality damaged in the war as soon as possible, it is undoubtedly much faster to buy the goods you need from a seller who has a sufficient supply than to produce them slowly in your own territory.
And this is not to take the path of compradors, the major guilds are working very hard to improve the manufacturing capacity of their territories, but the current situation is more special, and they need to import a lot of necessities, but this will not shake their determination to develop the manufacturing industry. It is like a farmer who is dying of hunger, although he is also cultivating and producing food, but before the harvest is ready, he has to buy food from merchants in order to survive.
On the spot, several super guild leaders secretly made a decision to talk to Lu Shuang about business after the meeting, and it was best to buy some high-end goods.
Lu Shuang looked at the people who were deep in thought, and secretly smug in his heart, even if all the player forces present did not do his business, there would be first-class guilds and second-rate guilds coming to him, and if one or two super guilds in the top ten guilds were replaced by first-class guilds, it would be really interesting.
It can be said that this is an upright conspiracy, no matter whether everyone accepts it or not, Lu Shuang will make a steady profit and not lose money.
"Hmph, what you say is good, for the country and the people, but who knows if it's for your own pocket?" The Emperor of the Seraphic Guild was on the side, and the Yin and Yang Strange Qi Dao was on the side.
"Then you can choose not to buy them, or not let these goods into your territory, no one will force you." Lu Shuang said in a light tone.
Watching the two of them talk about the cannons, and the other ten people acted as melon-eating people, Lu Shuang and the Seraphic Guild had a bad relationship, which was no secret to them. They have accurate information, and the Seraphic Guild has a hand in the early game against Lu Shuang, as if he killed the father of one of Lu Shuang's NPC generals. There were many players present at that time, and the eyeliner they arranged was also seen, but the fact was that Lu Shuang used the recruitment skill to replace a substitute for the dead ghost, and Wang Yue's father was fine.
"Brother Qingyu, what kind of cooperation method can you say?" Although the Dragon Emperor is happy to see the two forces of Lu Shuang and Emperor Tian fighting, it is still necessary to hold a good meeting for now.
"In fact, the method is very simple, it is to see how well it is implemented." Lu Shuang said.
Lu Shuang's idea was to trade along the coast, in the Yangtze River and Yellow River basins, and that the efficiency of transportation by water was much higher than that of overland, especially on long-distance transportation. And some bulk goods will lose their pants when they go through the teleportation array, and taking the waterway is the best choice, which is also an important reason why Lu Shuang wants to clear out pirates, and it is impossible to carry out trade without a stable environment.
Of course, if it was just a commodity sale, it would not have been brought up at this meeting with so much effort. Lu Shuang's deeper plan is to set up cargo turnover stations in some important cities or large ports along the coast and along the rivers, and if there are player forces that need to sell goods, they can come and hitchhike and only have to pay a logistics fee.
Just imagine, when a transport ship in Tiefan City is full of goods and comes to Yuyang County in Youzhou from the Yangtze River Delta, after unloading the goods, if it returns empty, it will be too much waste of the transport ship's capacity. In another case, when the transport ship unloads the goods, they will pull their goods onto the transport ship at the Temple of the God of War in Yuyang County, Youzhou, and go south along the Yellow and Bohai Seas and the East China Sea, passing through coastal counties such as Jizhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou and even Yangzhou, and drop off their goods in the designated counties, so that the Temple of War can not only transfer goods with relatively little logistics costs, but also Lu Shuang can make full use of the capacity of the transport ship to earn some freight, killing two birds with one stone.
The actual operation may be more complicated, and it is also an example from Tiefan City to Yuyang County in Youzhou, where several transport ships are generally escorted by warships and docked at the "logistics points" of various coastal counties. While unloading the cargo, if someone wants to "get on the bus" along the way, as long as the remaining space and capacity are sufficient, they can pull their cargo onto the transport ship, and then the cargo will follow the fleet all the way north to unload and disembark at the place they designate. After arriving at the terminal, the battleship and transport ship return the same way, and if there is a need to pull the cargo through the player forces in the southern counties, the above operation can be repeated.
Considering that there are a lot of territories established along the coast and along the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, even the top ten guilds are almost all established in places with water transportation conditions, in addition to buying necessary materials, they also need to sell their own goods and goods, and territories without self-hematopoietic ability will not have a future for development.
After listening to Lu Shuang's suggestion, the other presidents all fell into deep thought.
To be honest, Lu Shuang's suggestion was very tempting to them, if they were to form their own fleet, complete with warships, transport ships and naval forces, it is estimated that it would be the Three Kingdoms period at that time. Even among the eleven player forces present, there was one king-level shipbuilder in each of the Southern Alliance and the Sakurayuki Guild, which was picked up during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, not cultivated by their guild.
It is no exaggeration to say that the combined water power of these eleven player forces is not more than a fraction of Lu Shuang's, and letting them hitchhike is undoubtedly the most in the interests of everyone at present.
"This suggestion can be considered, not only for all of us here, but also for other players." The end of the Dragon Emperor was also a little moved, "But this suggestion is not something that can be discussed clearly in a while, I suggest that we make an appointment at that time to determine the specific matters, such as where to build a 'logistics point', how much logistics costs and so on." ”
"I agree."
"I think so."
Seeing that everyone nodded, Lu Shuang proposed: "Since everyone has no opinion, then otherwise, in a few days, I will ask the person in charge of the Celestial Phenomenon Guild to make an announcement on the official website, and those who are interested in participating in this logistics plan can sign up on their official website." Not just between us, other guilds can also participate if they are interested, and I will have my people talk to you. ”
"By the way, I will put some of the goods in the Flying City to sell in the Celestial City, and any of you who need them can place an order to buy them on the spot, or rent a stall to sell your goods."
