Chapter 38: Rush to buy fertilizer
The Duke of Windsor's subordinates secretly invaded the Duchy of Stantin, which may be a big deal for Kennard, but in the entire Sainz continent, it can only be regarded as a trivial matter that not many people know about at all, and even if they do, no one will care.
In this season of early autumn, there is only one thing that is most important for all the countries and people on this continent, and that is the autumn harvest.
Since the invention of the Farmland Magic Machinery by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, after more than eight years of promotion, these countries in the southwest corner of the Sainz Continent have now basically popularized this new mechanized farming mode using the Farmland Magic Machinery.
While other countries were still working hard to harvest, the kingdom of Lampari, the kingdom of Ruersun, the principality of Candela, the principality of Mirando, the principality of Norton and other countries had already collected all the grain in the fields intact into their granaries.
Even the kingdoms of Falke and Sark, which have only begun to promote mechanized farming in the country in the last two years, have now basically completed the initial harvest.
However, unlike several other countries that have become a complete set of systems after years of development, the Kingdom of Falk and the Kingdom of Sark have only begun to promote in the past two years, and they have only basically improved the harvesting system.
In order to solve these problems, according to their own estimates, the two countries have respectively submitted a series of orders to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, including magic scarifiers, magic excavators, magic forklifts and other farmland magic machinery and engineering magic machinery.
Among them, the order made by the Kingdom of Sark involves a total amount of more than 7 million gold coins, and the Kingdom of Falk has more arable land in the country because of its larger land area than the Kingdom of Sark. The total amount involved in the order made is also higher. More than 10 million gold coins.
It's just that the production capacity of the new flying chamber of commerce has always been a problem. In addition, this year it has entered the huge market of the Maro Empire, and the development prospects are considerable, so if you want to really complete the orders of these two countries, the new flying chamber of commerce has given a minimum period of two years.
Both the Sark Kingdom and the Falk Kingdom are a little dissatisfied with this, but at present, only the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can manufacture all kinds of farmland magic machinery and engineering magic machinery, and they are helpless.
In addition to all kinds of farmland magic machinery, there is now one thing that attracts the attention of surrounding countries even more, and that is chemical fertilizer.
Since the advent of chemical fertilizers. And in the Principality of Stantin, it was widely used, which triggered a large-scale increase in grain production in the Principality of Constantine, and then a large number of chemical fertilizers were introduced in the Lampari Kingdom, which also greatly increased the average yield per mu of the Lampari Kingdom, so that the new product was warmly sought after in the surrounding countries.
In the past two years, the Moon Shadow Clan has been able to earn more than two million gold coins per year from just relying on chemical fertilizer, far exceeding that of the Nightsong Clan.
Of course, this is also inseparable from the strong cooperation with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and it is with the strong support of the large number of magic processing machines provided by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce that the Moon Shadow Tribe has opened more than ten fertilizer processing factories one after another. As a result, the output of chemical fertilizers continues to increase, and the income continues to rise.
But...... This is still not enough.
Today is the day when the Moon Shadow Chamber of Commerce has a fixed shipment every month. The Moon Shadow Chamber of Commerce's shipping warehouse set up outside Xinfei City was crowded with people from all over the world as usual.
These people are even farthest from the Falk Kingdom, which is nearly two thousand kilometers away from here, and in order to be able to get fertilizer today, these people have even been guarding outside the warehouse of the Moon Shadow Chamber of Commerce since the middle of last night, for fear that others will snatch the goods that originally belonged to them.
As soon as the Moon Shadow Chamber of Commerce opened its doors on time at 8 a.m., a group of people immediately swarmed up.
Astaxia, who was in charge of the reception, was already very familiar with this kind of scene, glanced at the surging crowd in front of him, and shouted with an expressionless face: "All line up, come one by one." If you don't queue up, you won't be shipped!"
As soon as the words fell, the crowd immediately lined up obediently in a long row, and no one dared to disobey in the slightest.
It's not that no one has tried to disobey the command before, and the result is that they were directly blacklisted by the Moon Shadow Clan, and since then they have not provided any fertilizer to the Chamber of Commerce to which this person belongs.
So since then, the words spoken by the beautiful elven lady Astasia are here more useful than the king's will, and no one dares to disobey them.
Seeing that the noisy crowd in front of him quickly restored order, Astasia couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
Why are these humans always reluctant to learn their lesson, and insist on reminding them every time?
If it is a fellow elven clan, I believe that they only need to remind them once, and they will obediently line up every time in the future, and they don't need to work hard to urge them again every time.
But on second thought, perhaps it is precisely because of this idea that humans always want to break the rules that they will always be able to produce new changes, so as to constantly surpass themselves, and thus surpass all the other races on this continent, and finally become the master of this continent.
The elder allowed himself and his fellow citizens to have more contact with humans, and even tried to integrate into human society, the purpose of which was to let the clansmen learn these advantages of human beings, and also to allow the elves to surpass themselves and find their own place on this continent again.
Of course, the qiē that I have now is still thanks to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, a chamber of commerce founded by humans.
"Okay, the first one, the Roosevelt Chamber of Commerce, two meals of wheat nutrition fertilizer, a ton of wheat growth fertilizer, hand over the bills, and go to the back warehouse to pick it up. ”
With a soft snort from Astaxia, the chubby merchant who was in the first line stepped forward with a smile and handed over the bill that had been prepared in his hand, followed the other two elves into the warehouse, and with the help of the human porters hired by the Moon Shadow Chamber of Commerce, quickly carried the corresponding fertilizer onto the large freight magic locomotive waiting outside.
This merchant came from the city of Kuraka, the capital of the Ruerson Kingdom, which was nearly a thousand kilometers away, and even if he set out today, he would not be able to arrive tomorrow at the earliest.
The autumn harvest of the Ruerson Kingdom has basically ended, and there are many farmlands in the kingdom that are waiting for the nourishment of these fertilizers at this time, but they cannot be delayed.
A businessman handed in the bills in order and entered the warehouse, where the original mountain of fertilizer in the warehouse was rapidly reduced, and only half of the morning had passed, and the bottom was about to be seen.
Fortunately, the Moon Shadow Chamber of Commerce has long known that this month is the month with the highest demand for expenses after the autumn harvest, so it has prepared in advance, and has prepared five full warehouses, which are enough to supply.
However, even so, it is still difficult to meet everyone's needs.
The businessmen at the back of the queue couldn't help but feel a little anxious when they saw that there were fewer and fewer fertilizers in the warehouse.
At this time, there was still a guy in the platoon who was still entangled with Astasha, which made it even more impatient.
"You ask me what fertilizer does?" Astasia looked at the middle-aged human man in front of him, who should be over fifty from the outside, and his brown hair had already turned a little white, thinking that he had been in charge of fertilizer delivery here for more than two years, but it was the first time he had met someone who came here to ask what fertilizer was for.
"Yes, I see so many people in a hurry to buy it, this thing must be very good. This beautiful elven lady, can you please tell me what it is for?" the middle-aged human man asked very politely, with a sincere expression.
Before Astacya could reply, several of the merchants in the line behind him were already shouting impatiently.
"Hey, you don't even know what fertilizer is, what's the queue for?"
"It's just, don't waste your time if you don't buy it, don't mess around here. ”
"There are still people who don't know what fertilizer is made of? What kind of wild man did this guy run out of the mountains?"
......
Hearing the words of the person behind him, the middle-aged man's face was a little embarrassed, but he still stared at Astasia seriously, waiting for her answer.
Astacharo hesitated for a moment, remembering the content of the training at the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, so he put on a smile and patiently replied: "Chemical fertilizer is used in farmland, which can help crops survive and grow better, and can effectively improve the yield of various crops in farmland. ”
"Really?" the middle-aged man's eyes widened in surprise. "How can this thing be so amazing?"
Hearing his words, the people behind him became impatient again.
"Nonsense. If it's not magical, why do you think we should buy it?"
"It's like, if it weren't so amazing, what would be the queue of so many of us here? ”
"Miss Astasha, it's ridiculous that this guy dares to doubt you!"
......
Astasia still smiled, and continued to explain: "Whether the effect is magical or not, you will know when you go back and use it." But judging by your question, I'm guessing it's the first time you've come to the Duchy of Stantein and come into contact with something like fertilizer, right?"
"Yes. The middle-aged man nodded. "I'm from the Candela Empire, and I just heard that I wanted to come here to see what the various magical machines produced by the legendary New Flying Chamber of Commerce are like. On the way, I saw so many people queuing up here, so I was curious to come and have a look. I didn't expect that in addition to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, there was actually a Chamber of Commerce opened by the elves here, and there were even magical things like fertilizer, which was really eye-opening for me. ”
Hearing that he was from the Candela Empire, everyone around him fell silent.
The Candela Empire has always been a big empire in the hearts of the people in these small countries around it, and people from the Candela Empire naturally have to be looked down upon in their minds.
But after thinking about it, even if this guy is from the Candela Empire, he doesn't even know about magic machinery, and even chemical fertilizer is the first time he's heard of it, so it's really a bit ...... Some don't know.
If you think about it this way, it doesn't seem like much that he's from the Candela Empire.
Astasia didn't have the complex mind of the humans around him, and after listening to his self-introduction, he started to sell according to the teachings he had received during the training.
"Then this guest, since you are the first time to contact chemical fertilizers, please allow me to solemnly recommend this epoch-making product ......" (to be continued......
