Session 40: Westpac Trading Company (1)

The return of the girl.

As if receiving some kind of signal, the guilds and forces of different sizes in the area in front of the park that had collapsed were all silently drumming for a while after confirming the news that Akiwa Yuba himself had returned to the mainland.

Akiwa Yuba and his party did not enter the city in front of the park, and after the warship was anchored, they were invited to stay in the castle of Duke Wakirri, an earth-man force close to their guild.

Originally, the view from the observation deck was refreshing and pleasant, but now, even from a distance, a shrill steam whistle still comes into your ears, and when you look in the direction of the sound, you can see the sound of the Shirakawa Maru, which belongs to the 8th shopping street. Presumably, the delivered goods have been unloaded, loaded with hardware tools mass-produced in Akihabara, and at the same time, rice, flour, seasonings, clothing, chess and cards have been purchased in front of the park, and are preparing to sail to Stony Creek to transport these materials to the pioneer adventurers.

In the tidal flats along the estuary, which were originally lush with vegetation, the outline of the pier is transformed into a quay paved with cement and masonry, which is completely different from the surrounding environment.

Incidentally, cement and standard bricks are industrial products that cannot be mass-produced locally, and this time, the two large and small freighters (and experimental ships) of Shirakawa Maru and Kotobi Maru, in addition to carrying the first batch of artillery delivered to Duke Wakiri, were the largest number of goods and tonnage weights of cement, steel bars, and concrete, which were huge consumption but at the same time necessary building materials.

The progress of the dock is not very fast.

The main reason is that the productivity (physical attribute strength) between adventurers and the earth is too different, so the construction progress is naturally slow in the absence of professional engineering equipment, but this is not in a hurry, after all, there are only two modern ocean-going ships in this sea area at present.

As for the Flying Pill (experimental paddle steamer), it was arranged to be a relatively easy job, and in the future, it will be fixed to run the route from the park to the two colonies of Stony Creek and Kihong, so as to facilitate the dispatch of materials and personnel.

At this time, the most eye-catching thing was the armored cruiser USS United Force, which was anchored in the central waters of the estuary, and it was in the view of such a landscape that the atmosphere was like an afternoon tea party to discuss the future fate of the region.

Listening carefully to the contents of Eizuki's report, Autumn Garden Yuba was also looking through more detailed data records, and with the buff of the powerful secret treasure-level item 'Lake of Forgotten Scrolls', the girl was efficiently absorbing the contents of the information at a glance and dozens of lines.

"So far, the current forces in front of the park have been eliminated from more than half of the original more than 100 different forces after months of fierce competition, and many of them have broken down into uncompetitive fringe forces with large guilds of 1,000 people, and of course, on the whole, they still tend to integrate into a larger group." The people who painted the moon phase talked about the changes that had taken place in front of the park for a while, and after saying a paragraph, they turned to the next page and continued: "Now the local scale can be stable and sustain more than two thousand people in a month, and there are six guilds, groups or forces above the level of more than two thousand people, seven at the level of 1,000 people, and the rest of the disintegrated and broken and small and medium-sized forces are not in the scope of attention. ”

After listening to the report of his own 'spy leader', Qiu Ting Yuba first complained, "There are still so many forces...", but then "At present, this scale still feels appropriate, and if we continue to merge and form a few large forces at the 'Big Mac' level, we will have nothing to do..."

"Nope! The fierce wave of mergers and acquisitions had stopped a month earlier, and since then there is only the aftermath of inertia. The various resource gathering points have been carved up by the aforementioned forces, and your arrival is only a plausible reason for a ceasefire. ”

As soon as Ezuki finished speaking, Aruba stood up and added, "In addition, except for the park, there is a new wave of mergers in the rest of the area, but the details still have to wait for investigation and collation." ”

Autumn garden Yuba listened to "It's okay!" He waved his hand, and said, "Aruba and Alice, the two of you will go together as messengers to visit these forces, and invite their guildmasters or agents to go to the White Swan in two days to consult." "Use a pen to circle some of the guilds with a scale of about 500 and a friendly attitude, and put them within the scope of the invitation.

In this way, with just a few strokes, nearly half of the forces in front of the park were drawn together.

Hinata Miyagawa, who was sitting next to her, looked at the list and asked, "What?" Yuba: Are you planning to build a parliamentary body following Mr. Joe's example? ”

However, the expression she showed was not optimistic about this meeting, just such a situation where the small and medium-sized guild union was doomed to fail not long after the cataclysm.

"No! If I really want to create a parliamentary organization, I invite them to the memorial hall to discuss it, and I think with a keen sense of smell should be able to discern the meaning of what the different places and occasions represent. ”

"But! It's just Yuba's riddle, right? ”

Miyagawa Hinata has a kind of desire to reach out to probe the forehead of the autumn garden Yuba, and at this time she always feels a little bit unsure of what the other party is thinking, in her opinion, whether it is in the memorial hall or the white swan to hold a meeting to discuss.

"What follows is the situation of new recruits in the past month..."

At the same time that the guild leaders of the Garan Courtyard were integrating the information that had been accumulated in front of the park with Autumn Garden, the various forces that received the invitation the next day were not idle.

The park front station of the jelly dough.

"Qiu Ting said before that there was a business that everyone would do together? Not... Still not very used to her new ID. ”

Kaedama was holding an A4 open booklet in her hand, which was a draft of the idea that Akiwa Yuba had prepared beforehand.

As one of the leaders of the group, Feng Yu raised the booklet in his hand after reading the information that the deputy head Wen Wen brought back from the girl, and said, "The park is the former Southwest Pacific Trading Company? This one... Let's set up an East India Company! ”

Fengyu, methanol mixed with water, cabbage, cake, and Yuki have already reprinted a copy of it, which is the 'important information' that Wenwen brought back as an ambassador, which is the same as the HHH group, which has nearly two weeks more time to prepare in advance than the strength of other guilds.

As long as you don't have a stupid person, you can understand the girl's intentions.

"I think it's feasible to monopolize trade in the Southwest Pacific by mastering sea supremacy."

"The sea divides the server cities of the East Indies, and such a geographical disadvantage will be an advantage for the side with sea supremacy, as long as it is operated properly, there will be no big problem."

"After all, judging from the current situation in the market, the price of unique resources in non-park areas is rising all the way, and the resources in adjacent areas on land are fine, but the prices of areas divided by the ocean, such as Yamato, and the unique material resources currently produced in our Shenzhou, have risen to 135% of the previous historical average price, which should be due to the fact that there is still a certain amount of stock supply in the market. But there is no doubt about it! In a more fragmented island environment like the East Indies, there's no reason why the prices of these scarce items used to enhance weapons and equipment should remain at the bottom of the gaming era. ”

As the leader of the organization in the pre-park area (Bugenera), Wenwen has a great say in this matter, and it is clear that she is also using her voice to promote this matter.

Moreover, the warships of the Garan Courtyard are still moored at the mouth of the sea, and they are real war machines, which is also a real source of confidence for the participants in this overseas development plan.

Although the deputy heads of the other regional branches have a bit of a 'sour' feeling that the regional branch in front of the park may grow rapidly, this is an opportunity for the guild to take a leap.

In other words, even the Silver Hunter of the Super Regiment Leader can't ignore the interests of the region, especially the huge interests that will affect the order of regional forces, and even affect the order of influence on the Shenzhou Continent, as long as it is not a battle of will, no one will foolishly push away this tempting olive branch.

Not only the two allies of the Liangfan Group and the HHH Group, but the rest of the guilds or organizations that received the invitation couldn't help but seriously consider it.

As a result, the blazing wave of mergers and confrontations in the front area of the park has finally come to an end.

This does not mean that they have a conscience and want to join hands and coexist peacefully, but the place of competition has changed from one place to another, and that's it.

Postscript: I still play the old-fashioned hand of interest bundling, and I am still satisfied with it.
