Chapter 218: Commercial Routes
Orinedu's monthly output value can reach nearly a thousand gold coins on average, which is something Dane did not expect. www.biquge.info He estimated that the money that Rotten Wolf Town could provide to White Wolf Fort in a month was about 10,000 yuan, and the Shawan Port belonged to the part that Morno once owned, and the monthly output value might be six or seven thousand. But these two places are commercial powerhouses, and Orinedu, with a civilian population of only three hundred, can get a thousand gold coins a month, he really didn't expect it.
It has to be said that Ulrika's distillery has a lot of credit for this.
It is also worth mentioning that there are thirteen moon wells in Orinedu, of which six have been developed into the core of the orchard, four are purely the base points for the outward expansion of the forest range, and three have been built on the land near the Ghost Knife Harbor, and within a close range, the transformed land has become a large farm, which has been leased and planted by many slave-born Ghost Knife Harbor residents.
The method of leasing is still relatively scientific, Tommy has set a minimum amount of grain to be handed over, and when the quota is paid, the peasants who lease the land can get the minimum salary guarantee, and this salary figure is enough for a farmer to live a normal life. However, it is important to know that due to the moon well full of vitality as a backing, the farmland that has been transformed from hard soil can be described as quite fertile, coupled with the irrigation of moon well water,
Now, the connection between Ghost Knife Harbor and Orinedu has become very close. On the docks of Ghost Knife Harbor, there used to be only two ships, the Long Sail and the Golden Leaf, which were anchored for a long time, but now some merchant ships from Shawan Harbor will come to Komirya to do business. There is a market in Komya, and many things that cannot be produced need to be imported from the mainland; Komyra also has products, such as the fine wine of the Ulrika winery and the fresh fruit of the elves, which are very good export products.
There is a market, there is a product, and there is a business opportunity. The noses of the merchants are very sensitive, especially when Tommy deliberately released a lot of news in Shawan Port, although the commercial activities have not yet reached the point of endless prosperity, but the entire Ghost Knife Port has at least a sign of a commercial port.
Tommy's vision and viciousness, he relied on the Longsail and the Golden Leaf, and turned the halfling captain Hull into a merchant, established a trading company called 'Dread', and also began to run the transportation and sales industry, making a certain profit. In addition, the docks of Ghost Knife Harbor have also begun to collect commercial taxes. The sum of these two incomes has made the monthly income of Ghost Knife Port reach more than five hundred.
At the same time, Tommy's work is not limited to the commercial development of the docks, and the development of the Ghost Knife Port itself has not been left behind.
Tommy, for example, opened a quarry.
On the barren Komyrya, there was nothing at all, but there was only one thing that was plentiful—stones. The quality of these stones is not very good at the edge of the coastline, but you can still find some high-quality stones around the Hengduan Mountain, which divides the island to the south. These stones are not recognized by the system and cannot be used as ore resources, but after cutting and molding, on the one hand, they can meet the construction needs of the ghost knife port itself, and on the other hand, they can also be exported as raw materials.
The other is the weaving mill, which has a contract with a garment mill near the port of Shawan to supply them with fabrics. Moreover, these fabrics are not just for their garment factories, and many civilians prefer to buy some fabrics to make their own clothes.
As for the raw material of textile fabrics, cotton, it needs to rely on imports from the Shire continent, which is farther away. But this is a good deal, the Shire continent is rich in products, and the price of cotton is not high, but there is no reliable cotton production area near Shawan Port.
Although neither textile nor stone gathering is a very high-end industry, and it is not particularly profitable after it is established, it is quite in line with Dane's original commercial design for Cormier - to become a key port from Shawan Port, Tarence and other places to Shire!
Although there would have been a bit of a detour, and the two-week voyage from the port of Tarence in the Duchy of Florence or from the port of Sand Bay to the Shire would have been reduced to three weeks, the benefits would have increased for the merchants.
For example, the trade routes that have been formed are used to transport some of the goods needed by the island, such as household goods, furniture, timber resources, ready-made garments or other light industrial products, from the ports of Tarens or Shawan to be sold in Komyrya. Then, from Komyrya, the relatively small raw materials produced in the Shir continent, such as stones, were carried to sell to halflings and elves, and then cotton and grain were transported from the Shire to Komyrya, and finally the cloth from Komira was returned to Shawan Harbor.
This is already a commercial route that is gradually maturing, although this route cannot bring particularly high monetary benefits to Ghost Knife Port for the time being, but the future development prospects are what Dane is very much looking forward to.
In the future, when the population of Komyrya becomes larger, the market becomes larger, and the products produced become more abundant, this commercial route will eventually replace the existing route and become the mainstream, and it will be a golden route!
"Well done." Hearing all the good news, Dane's mood was not much worse, so he naturally wouldn't be stingy with his praise, "Keep it up, I'm looking forward to the time when Orinedu and Ghost Knife Harbor become more prosperous!" ”
……
The efficiency of more than thirty elves working together is still very fast, and the next evening, Dane received the news that the Hero Altar has been upgraded.
Dane, who had just finished a day's exercise and practice, didn't care about the flying elves and began to upgrade other buildings diligently, but immediately rushed to the place where the Hero's Altar was.
The Hero Altar, which has been upgraded to the second level of the building level, has not changed much in its body, but in the direction directly opposite the bluestone steps of the altar, there is a stone statue of an elf wearing exquisite armor standing.
Dain didn't care, he calmed down and stepped into the altar.
The power that I had felt once came to my heart from the altar again. At the same time, a piece of system information also appeared on his retina:
"If a player is detected activating a Level 2 Hero Altar, choose to recruit a new hero, or level up an existing hero." (To be continued.) )
