Chapter 55: Progress

After helping Kara obtain a weakened version of the Eight Extremes, Arley eagerly proceeded to the next round of experiments, performing the same enhancements on Lydia and Bruno respectively, and was overjoyed to achieve a complete success. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Three successful examples were in front of him, and the black-haired knight felt complacent for a while, feeling that he had found the right way to pass the line, so he decided to let more of his own people share this power.

After Bruno had mastered the power of gold and made sure that there were no after-effects, Jarre wrote overnight to arrange for a large number of people to accept the inheritance - this group included Nicole, Clark, Sitz, Nancy, and the two dozen or so Scourge Knights of the Guard.

However, the result surprised everyone, the power of gold is so powerful that not everyone can grasp it.

Among this group of thousands of people, except for Clarke, who has cultivated the power of gold, everyone else has failed miserably. Strictly speaking, it may not be called a failure, but it is not successful enough.

Take Nicole, for example.

On her body, the weakened version of the Eight Limits presents a pure silver-white color, which is very close to the female knight's own fighting spirit, and also initially has some characteristics of the Eight Limits, but it is obviously a degraded version of the power of gold.

However, Nicole is not at the bottom, the bottom is Sitz, on his body, the weakened version of the eight limits is bronze, and the quality is much worse than the power of silver.

Warriors whose strength is lower than the fifth order are simply unable to withstand the enhancement of the eight limits, such as the aquatic group of Goethe and Lolo. The two of them almost blew themselves up during the enhancement process, but the black-haired knight was spared thanks to the timely stopping, as did the remaining Scourge Knights.

After a series of sample comparisons, the black-haired knight gradually figured out the strengthening conditions, and he had to be a healthy, young and strong origin knight to be able to accept the power of the eight limits.

And according to each person's potential, talent, and war paint quality, and a series of objective factors, the weakened version of the Eight Extremes that has been bred is also completely different.

The best is the power of gold, which is powerful, comparable to the top fighting spirit, and there is a high chance that it can be upgraded to genuine in the future.

The second is the power of silver, which is second to the power of gold, stronger than the superior Dou Qi and weaker than the top Dou Qi, but also has a chance to upgrade to the genuine version. The most inferior is the power of bronze, and the power is the level of the superior fighting spirit, but it is congenitally insufficient, and there is almost no chance to upgrade to the genuine version.

After getting this result, Yalei was very disappointed, which meant that his desire to mass-produce the power of gold was bankrupt, and there were few Origin Knights in the entire Celtic Province, and the essence of them was still by his side.

It will not be easy to increase the amount of gold power in the future.

The depression only lasted for a short time, and when the black-haired knight realized that he had four golden powers around him, he instantly jumped out of the spiritual trough - there were already four subordinates who could impact the end, and no matter how greedy he was, he would probably be punished by God.

This is the end of the enhancement, and Areley arranges two pirate identities for Clark and Nicole respectively, leaving them behind, and he smuggles the rest back to Celtic.

......

It took the black-haired knight months of energy to help Kara and the others obtain the power of the Eight Extremes, and when he came back to his senses, it was July 1498 - nearly half a year had passed since he arrived in the uncharted sea.

In the past six months, the cooperation between Blackbeard and the Whitebeard Pirates has begun to bear fruit, and several low-end manufacturing factories have been able to produce goods of decent quality - thanks to someone's technology scavenged from Rosevia.

As soon as their own goods came out, Whitebeard and Yalei immediately imitated the response of external countries and adopted trade protection measures against local goods, including raising tariffs, raising import taxes, subsidizing factories and other targeted policies, and squeezing out the power of middlemen.

With the support of the two of them in the middle of the business, the price of daily necessities was 100 times cheaper, relying on the big markets of dozens of island countries, and soon entered the families of ordinary islanders.

In the sphere of influence of the Blackbeard Pirates, those islanders who had been poisoned by Charlotte and were accustomed to a hard life found that with the rise of factories - there were more places to make money, and the chances of having enough to eat were greater, and the goods that were previously unattainable were actually bought by themselves.

All in all, their standard of living has improved, and all these benefits are brought by Blackbeard. Moreover, those navy lords who protect themselves are also much more amiable than the previous group of pirate masters.

Extortion is almost eliminated, and they are willing to pay for things, and they are almost free from bullying, which the islanders did not dare to think of before.

Comparing their lives before and now, the islanders sincerely feel that the Blackbeard Pirates are good, and they sincerely support the rule of the Blackbeard Pirates.

The reason why the quality of life of the islanders in the Blackbeard Sea has improved so quickly is actually related to Yalei's mastery of advanced technology and the large package to support all the factories.

The black-haired knights controlled most of the local industries, and in order to buy people's hearts and minds, and to hold high the glorious banner of "justice", they were willing to share more profits with the workers, so they could have an income.

However, the Whitebeard Sea is a little different, and the industry created by the pirate leaders is to make money and enjoy it for themselves. Who cares about the life and death of the islanders, anyway, there are people in the island country, and they can just catch them when they are tired.

Take care of three meals a day, nine hours of rest, and as for the salary...... Stretch out your hand, and chop off your hand for a salary!

Squeezing out every drop of the blood and sweat of the workers is the nature of the capitalists and the inevitable result of mercenary.

Although this is very inhumane, it saves labor costs in disguise, offsets the quality advantage of Blackbeard's sea products, and makes the pirate leaders make money every day.

During this period, those middlemen naturally added all kinds of blockages, made all kinds of troubles, and even threatened them by cutting off supplies, but to no avail.

The pirates are not scared, anyway, there are fish in the sea, there are things on the island that can be scavenged, and their own products are gradually improving - if you dare to interrupt the supply, we will dare to hold back our own products, who is afraid of whom!

In the end, the middlemen gradually compromised, and some merchants were directly squeezed to death, while others gradually transformed into merchants selling luxury goods and high-end goods.

The Blackbeard Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates teamed up to build their own manufacturing industry, and the results of the fight against middlemen soon spread throughout the Uncharted Sea, strengthening themselves and benefiting almost everyone.

In this atmosphere, the other two powerhouses gradually felt the pressure and a sense of crisis. (To be continued.) )
