Now there is a prototype of a large factory in the Blackwater River area, radiating around with the Blackfire Castle as the center. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Construction was in full swing everywhere, roads leading to the mines were paved, and the tribes had many doubts at first.

But when the humans came to hire them to build the road with baskets of silver coins, they quickly smiled and dispelled their worries.

For the Far East, where the economy of self-sufficient small-scale peasants prevailed, the orcs had no concept of market, money, or capital.

Until the young duke pried open their closed market with beer.

They suddenly realized that they didn't have to farm to eat, and they didn't have to hunt to eat, and they could not only eat delicious steamed buns and bread for working for humans, but also get silver coins as a reward.

These things, which were previously only available in distant Falcon Town, can be bought for food and drink at Blackfire Castle.

Occasionally, you can take the whole family for a big meal.

Because the young duke had already put forward the slogan "Far East on the tip of the tongue".

Call on the orcs of the Blackwater River to free themselves from the potato soup they eat day after day.

Wild boars in captivity, large fishing grounds in the harbor.

These materials are continuously transported to the Blackfire Keep for processing.

New markets have also been planned in the new towns.

These good things can be bought with silver, and you can only get silver coins by working for humans.

Why not?

Under the impact of the capital market, the small-scale peasant economy began to disintegrate, and the market became more and more active, of course, now only in the Heishui River area.

It won't be long before it expands to the entire Far East!

"There are now 3,284 orcs hired by us, of which about 2,500 are working in the major mines under our control, and nearly 800 are working on road repairs, and their salaries are 19,704 silver coins according to their current salary of 6 silver coins per month. ”

This data has already been calculated by Milia.

Just read it out from the paper.

In the past two months, the orcs have erupted in a craze of "working for the Black Fire family".

The number of orc employees has skyrocketed, from a few hundred to more than 3,000.

The salary level has also increased to 6 silver coins per month as the financial income of the Black Fire Castle has increased.

This is still far from being compared to the interior of the empire.

But Lin Ye had reason to believe that this situation would soon improve, as the Black Fire Castle gradually got on the right track.

The income level will be higher and higher.

It is very telling that the brewery with 80 people has created the output value to feed the entire Black Fire Castle.

Although coal mines and iron ore forests that occupy a lot of manpower and material resources will not choose to be exported.

But they will play a role far beyond the numbers of silver coins.

If business is to build the foundation of the Black Fire Castle.

Then industry will determine the future of Blackfire Castle!

"What about the salary level of human employees?" Lin Ye continued to ask.

Building a town is a money-burning business.

Although building materials can be obtained locally, the cost of labor cannot be ignored.

The new town, which is nearing completion, consumes a lot of manpower.

There was a pandemic, but everyone persevered.

This situation will be greatly improved when the town is completed.

"Everyone knows that the financial expenses are very large right now, and construction is going on everywhere, so no one has applied for a salary, and they have even donated a lot of money and money to help you through this difficult time, including ......" Milia said again.

"What's it?" Lin Ye asked, looking up.

"Miss Yuffie's jewelry, which she gave to Mr. Ababa, and begged him to take it to Fish Leap Harbor and sell it. Miria hesitated for a moment.

"Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?" Lin Ye was stunned.

During this time, he was busy discussing the matter of the steam engine with Eight Feet, and he didn't care about anything else.

Even the financial situation of Blackfire Castle, he only has an approximate figure.

I didn't think about it.

But now it seems that the financial situation is in a very bad situation.

After all, whether it is the construction of towns or the mining of mines, they are all industries that cannot be directly converted into silver coins in the short term.

"It was Miss Yuffie who asked not to tell you. Milia confessed.

"Is that so? I see. Lin Ye still behaved calmly.

"Go on, what else is going on this month. ”

"Mr. Ababa bought back 200 tons of flour from Yuyue Harbor, as well as a large amount of vegetables and meat, as well as smelting additives and some necessities for life that you requested, and spent 8W silver coins, and paid 2W silver coins to the mine rent paid to the major tribes. ”

Milia kept thinking about the cost of various supplies.

While she was reading, Lin Ye was also doing mental arithmetic.

"In other words, the Black Fire Family's financial balance is less than 1W silver coins now, right?" Lin Ye asked with a frown.

"That's right. Miria replied truthfully.

"It's the result of people voluntarily giving up their salaries, and it seems that the financial situation in the short term is very bad. Lin Ye thought for a moment.

"I remember that the land of Dragon's Breath Valley is fertile and is an important granary in the Far East, but those dragons are too arrogant and unwilling to do business with humans, and now the Heishui River region is not yet unified, and I can't go to trouble them in the short term......"

"This is the only way to go, those wealthy merchants are still in the port?" Lin Ye asked.

"Well, they've been at Fick Casino for days. ”

"Looks like I'll have to go over and talk to them about futures. Lin Ye thought about it and got up to leave.

Milia also exited the office, she had other things to do.

Looking out of the tent, you can already see the outline of a new city.

The physical work was almost done, and the orc soldiers were all transferred to build roads.

Only a few human craftsmen were left putting the finishing touches, Six Feet and Five Feet leading a group of men digging culverts.

Used to drain water.

Otherwise, as soon as the rainy season arrives, the whole town will be full of potholes and become a Ze country.

At Lin Ye's suggestion, Hachichi spent a week directing the water of the Heishui River to a large pool in the center of the town through several troughs, and in this way diverted the water in all directions of the town.

Although it did not reach every household, this early tap water was much more convenient than going to the river to get water.

The drilling of wells is also underway.

The technology for drilling wells is not available in the entire Far East.

This was brought from the inhabitants of Undercurrent Island.

"It seems that I will be able to move to a new town in a month at most. Lin Ye was very pleased to see this brand new town surrounded by trees.

Not far away, a vegetable garden is being cultivated, and the seeds are all brought back from overseas by Ababa.

In the Heishui River area, it is difficult for other vegetables to survive except for the traditional potato.

But people are still trying.

"In fact, greenhouse vegetables should be a good solution, and when you come back from the port, you will start to prepare to build a greenhouse to achieve the effect of a greenhouse." Lin Ye thought so.

At this time, a carriage slowly drove by.

Lin Ye boarded the carriage and headed towards the port.
