Chapter 239: Money, Money, Money
It wasn't a good conversation, but at least, in the conversation that broke up after the military meeting, Dane at least managed to open up with Chappell. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
If you really want to say that you have no selfish intentions at all to put Chapur in the position of logistics chief, Dane will not dare to say it. Chappell's status in White Wolf Fort is too high, and his prestige directly affects the entire White Wolf Fort military group. If such a character continues to be placed on the direct front line to lead the soldiers, I am afraid that the soldiers will only know Chapur and not Dane.
However, then again, the chief logistics officer is actually a high-ranking authority. Especially when Dane gave him the power to distribute intelligence networks, logistics supplies, ordnance construction and purchase, supplementary training of soldiers, and the distribution of soldiers, the status of this logistics chief will not be lower than that of Pechins, the commander of the corps.
After chatting with Chappell for so long, Dane felt that he had strangled the two of them in the cradle before they had any trouble. When such a major transfer is underway, it is important to have a deep enough communication with the subordinates.
Once you get Chapur, the others won't have much of a problem. As a result, after the chief logistics officer took office, the entire military reorganization plan involving more than 6,000 troops began in full swing.
The population of Dane's realm was less than 10,000 - of course, the permanent population. The replenishment of soldiers must be obtained from these populations, but it is unlikely that the other part of the garrison corps will be recruited directly from the local population, otherwise, the military force of a total of 6,000 people is not something that 10,000 civilian population can support, even if Rotten Wolf Town is a commercial city, it is not strong and impossible to rely on traditional agriculture.
There are a lot of troops to be replenished, and the overall reorganization plan is also very ambitious. It's very simple to make a plan, think about it with your head, write it down, and talk about it with your mouth, but with so many soldiers, it is impossible for Dane to spit it out with one mouth, and it is impossible for him to change from a farmer and an ordinary citizen to a soldier in an instant. This requires training, even if there is a systematic base to ensure the quality of training and shorten the training time, but all this is still inseparable from having enough resources and people to support it.
And it's a lot of resources and population.
In the early plan, Dane directly allocated 30,000 gold coins to Chapur, and there are at least this amount of gold coins to pay in the future. With so much money, it emptied Dane's savings almost all at once.
Fortunately, soon, a batch of gold coins from a few territories slightly filled his gap.
There weren't many gold coins that Komirya could come up with, the most important ones being half of the Shawan Harbor and a Rotten Wolf Town. Combined, these two places provided about 17,000 gold coins, which accounted for almost ninety percent of Dane's total income in a month. Verina's work was very effective, and under her rule, the town of Rotten Wolf after the turmoil was restored to its vitality in a very short time.
Of course, this also has something to do with the fact that Dane did a better job when he led the troops. Even after the barracks were breached, Pehin held the key road to the rest of the eastern part of Rotten Wolf and defeated the demons once and for all. Although the Eastern District was beaten a bit badly, there were no people in the Eastern District of Rotten Wolf Town itself, and the camp was mainly reserved for the troops of the White Wolf Fort to come and station sometimes.
Although the income is a lot, the expenses are even greater. You know, several territories themselves also need to spend a lot of money to maintain. Administrative staff, security personnel, and soldiers in the army are all paid, and money is also invested in the construction and maintenance of some public facilities. After deducting these things, Dane can receive the gold coins in his hand in a month, which is only about six thousand.
That's a drop in the bucket for the huge reorganization plan, but fortunately, he has another income that can be used to support it for the time being—Bobble's legacy.
Dane reckoned that Bobble was dead, though no body was found. But this did not prevent him from directly confiscating all of Barber's property. The private collection of Barber, which was buried under the mansion of the mayor of Rotten Wolf Town, was finally counted to be a full fifty thousand gold coins. You can see how black the hands of this dead fat man, who had a reputation for greed in the early years, are in the town.
With this money, coupled with the previously unused Moorno family property, it can also allow Dane to support it in the short term by purchasing a large amount of materials. But in the long run, continuing like this will inevitably be a dead end.
Then continuing to expand one's own power outward is what must be done.
In the plan, after the completion of the three-month military reorganization, Dane will definitely go to the port of Shawan Bay.
That battle was not just for the sake of being so superficial, it almost decided the life and death of the forces of White Wolf Fort - if he couldn't eat Shawan Port, Dane would be directly dragged to death by his crazy army expansion plan!
Expansion is the lifeblood, he pressed the psychology of revenge, and after giving the future battle a greater significance, he can't do it now, accumulating strength, and swallowing it completely is the king.
In addition to expansion, it is equally important to increase the hard power of the territory itself.
Dane had ordered Verena to immediately begin a policy of attracting a large number of outsiders. Moreover, attracting people from outside is still the first step, and with so many people coming in, there must be a way to feed them. Everyone has work and everyone has income, which is a healthy territorial environment.
Well, with Dane's crazy expansion plan, it seems a little ridiculous to talk about the healthy development of the territory.
But he doesn't have any bottom in his heart, and all of this needs to rely on a new batch of buildings that have never been opened in the past by the third-level system base - economic buildings!
It wasn't for nothing that there were production buildings before, with Forest forces being able to build Moon Wells and Human Templars building farms.
The Moon Well of Orinedu has been built under the vigorous development of Faro; On the side of White Wolf Castle, the construction of the farm has also begun, and the first step to be transformed is to rely on the dozen or so villages around White Wolf Castle. Once these system-certified farms are modeled after the original villages, the food production will increase a lot, and the farmers' lives will be better – a golden sign that attracts outsiders. At the same time, these villages will greatly increase their ability to provide taxes to their lords, known as Dane.
But the moon well and the farm were nothing more than economic buildings in the early days of the two major power bases - no, production buildings, rather. And after the completion of the third-level base, a large number of more important economic buildings opened up are the things that can really bring a lot of money to the territory!
