Chapter 20 International Arms Dealers
Shen Yi stood in front of a large assembly line with his arms crossed.
Under the operation of countless robotic arms, the parts of the Terminator gradually took shape.
Zhou Yiyu walked over from the factory gate, stood beside Shen Yi and said:
"Shirley received an order to produce 500 X56 shaped guns. ”
"Oh, so fast?" Shen Yi was slightly surprised.
The purpose of renting a factory, in addition to being a production terminator, is to earn more points through commercial means.
However, it is not easy to receive an order when he first arrives, Shen Yi does not have the time and energy to run business, and the summoners do not have that level of marketing, so after thinking about it, they have to let Michelle's second army go out.
There are all the three sects and nine streamers in the second legion, although they are all scumbags, it does not mean that there are no people who are proficient in business.
However, what I didn't expect was that the first to receive the business would be Shirley.
Only then did Shen Yi remember that this woman was originally a businessman - the Flying Fish 13 was its own ship, and the captain had always had to take care of his own business.
Five hundred X56 shaped guns, the business scale is not large, and the profit is not too high, but it is better than nothing.
"In that case, when this batch of Terminators is completed, let's start producing shaped guns. Shen Yi said lightly.
"Still worried about the affairs of Taiyi Daoren?" The good news did not lift Shen Yi's spirits, and Zhou Yiyu could see that Shen Yi was depressed.
Shen Yi smiled bitterly: "How can I say it, the loopholes I designed were used by others, and then I brought trouble to myself...... It's a bit of a cocoon, and the mood really doesn't get better. ”
"And what are you going to do?"
"Two ways. One is to kill Taiyi before the real person arrives. However, this method is dangerous, and if it is exposed, we will become the main culprits in the destruction of diplomatic relations. The dead Taoist has no other skills, the escape is first-class, and the eloquence is first-class. Shen Yi smiled bitterly, why didn't he think of stopping Taiyi Zhenren when he first designed it?
Also, who thinks about "where to plant explosives to blow up quickly and cheaply" when building a bridge?
"The second option is to call for a truce. For example, inciting the crowd, calling for peace, opposing war or something. ”
"It won't be easy, and once the Aaront Empire decides to go to war, the support of the people will prevail. Zhou Yiyu is not optimistic about this plan.
"That's right. Shen Yi sighed.
The three continents have a deep enmity against each other, and it is always easier to stir up hatred and revenge than to call for peace, not to mention that it is always the cries of war that do not go to the battlefield to fight the most cheerful - the civilians themselves do not need to go to the battlefield, so they must support the war.
Moreover, Aarendt is not a democracy, and even opposition may not be of much use.
The sound of high heels trampling the ground sounded, and Shirley strode in: "I don't understand why you have to stop this war, won't war bring more tasks and opportunities?"
Shen Yi turned around and replied: "The mainland war will indeed bring more opportunities, but it will also bring more variables. We have already planned many things for this mission, as long as we do it step by step, we can get everything we want, and there is really no need to pursue more opportunities. It's like if you have a million, do you invest it in business, or do you use it to gamble? For the owner of capital, risk reduction is the priority. ”
"Is this what Fudang is called conservative?" said Shirley, with a sarcastic smile on her face.
She became Shen Yi's summoning life for Michelle, but her loyalty was limited to Michelle, which can be said to be the summoning of the summon, but she also had no due respect for Shen Yi.
"Sort of. Shen Yi didn't mind.
"Then why didn't you design some war missions that would have been of great benefit in the first place?"
Zhou Yiyu answered this question: "Because the actual return on income is not ideal. Bloody City calculates its own rules for contribution and return, in which individual combat power accounts for a large part and command contribution is small. We once participated in the Warcraft Warcraft Four-Clan Battle, and in that war, although we also commanded the war, the main profit still came from our own battles. ”
At the beginning, Shen Yi was in the World of Warcraft, and he could get command contributions from the battles of the soldiers under his command, but even if it was at the commander level, it was only seven percent, and it was directly under the troops. Considering the low combat strength of the soldiers, the actual benefits that can be brought to the adventurer are not greater than the benefits of the adventurer's own battles.
While having command contributions, there is another disadvantage of war missions, that is, they are limited by the size of the team, and the action efficiency is low, which is not suitable for brushing tasks.
In World of Warcraft, the Broken Blade team, whose purpose is to destroy the opponent and complete the optional tasks, wants to go all out to fight the war well, and is naturally willing to command the battle and obtain command contributions.
But in the Musou world, things are reversed.
Optional missions can be carried out regardless of whether war breaks out or not.
On the contrary, after the outbreak of war, the inefficiencies unique to the Grand Legion can seriously drag down the adventurer's ability to perform tasks.
This isn't a problem for adventurers who don't have so many hidden missions to do, but it's a big problem for the Breakerblades - instead of doing a command mission that takes a day and gives a 10% bonus, it's better to have an infinite number of solo missions in the city.
Both the rewards and the ease are much higher than the war mission.
Because of this, in the positioning of the Broken Blade Team, the continental war is used to deal with the enemy that they can't deal with, rather than to brush up on tasks.
"Can you not go?"
"No, once the war breaks out, the three countries will recruit troops across the country, but all adventurers with a certain strength must go to the battlefield, even if we want to stay in the city to brush the mission, and some tasks in the city may not be kept. ”
"Why are you so dead?"
"It's not about dealing with the Infernal Sect. Who would have thought that these guys would be killed by us in the last world?" Shen Yi smiled bitterly.
"So that's ......" Shirley touched her chin and said in a self-muttering tone, "In other words, once war breaks out, you will inevitably be requisitioned, many plans will be difficult to implement, and the benefits will be greatly reduced?"
"Yes. While it's certainly still more than normal in the world, it's certainly not as good as planned. ”
"It's funny. Shirley raised her eyebrows: "I don't understand why soldiers have to go to battle?"
Shen Yi and Zhou Yiyu glanced at each other and asked in unison, "What did you say?"
"I'm talking about why do you think that only soldiers who go to war are called soldiers?" Shirley replied very seriously, "You seem to have forgotten that you are now in a country of technology. What is the biggest difference between such a country and the other two continents?"
Shen Yi was stunned for a moment, and then muttered: "Of course it's logistical support...... Damn, why didn't I think of that?"
The most important thing for a society that takes science and technology as the strengthening direction is to have a complete logistics support system, which is very different from the magical world.
The magic world relies on soldiers, and the technology world depends on resources.
This different characteristic doomed Aaront to need a strong and powerful order to maintain production even in the event of war, so as to continuously deliver artillery and combat readiness to the front.
Because of this, in the Arendt Empire, it is not only soldiers who go to the battlefield to call soldiers.
Production soldiers are also soldiers, and security soldiers are also soldiers, and for the importance of these two, the Arendt Empire far exceeds the other two continents.
Shen Yi has muttered: "In the name of production resources...... War Arms Dealers!"
The Broken Blades already have a factory, and Shirley's proposal makes Shen Yi realize that they can continue to stay in Canterlot to brush up on missions in the name of arms supply.
Compared with a few powerful combat forces, a stable supply point of arms is obviously more important to the Empire.
And the most interesting thing is that during the war, the arms trade will become extremely easy to do, but this mission is a rare world where coins and blood points can be exchanged in both directions......
Things that can't be sold will become very easy to sell, sales will increase, profits will increase, and farming tasks will not be affected...... What could be better than that?
The positioning of the factory was originally to be the end of production, laying the foundation for the impact on hell.
Now it seems that its role is going to increase.
Shen Yi and Zhou Yiyu's eyes showed excitement at the same time.
Shen Yi's thinking was instantly broadened: "We can not only be arms dealers, but also provide more military support." Being a merchant allows us to openly sell our force to the Empire, rather than being cheaply expropriated by them with patriotism. ”
"That's right!" Zhou Yiyu nodded and said: "We can set up a mercenary organization like the nature of the Blackwater Company, the Second Legion can come in handy, and the fighters and terminators can also go to the battlefield, of course, the battleships still can't go to the battlefield." ”
Affected by Shirley's proposal, everyone's thinking was broadened, and they came up with various ways to make money, and even Chu Sheng and others, who were not far away, were attracted to join the ranks of offering advice.
"We can also sign a preferential agreement with the Empire, and as long as the Empire is willing to give us a credit for resources, we can provide them with a large number of Terminators for free. If the Terminator is damaged in battle, it is subject to a high compensation, and if it is not damaged, it is not paid. For other arms companies, the used weapon is not valuable, but for us, it can still be used to hit hell...... We don't care second-hand. ”
"That's right, the Empire will definitely accept this offer. ”
"But we have to take into account the business hurdles that can be encountered, and people have a very good sense of money, and we don't have a foundation here. A business that goes too far can lead to jealousy and fearless loss among peers. ”
"In terms of connections, you can follow the path of Major General Atkins, and as for those who stand in the way, then give them a chance to perform...... Destroying an important factory in the Empire is not bad, isn't it?"
"Complete some tasks as soon as possible that may disappear after the emergence of war, and show your strength by the way. ”
"Then send out the Terminator to sweep the four directions. ”
"In addition, Taiyi Zhenren has not yet arrived in the empire, and others will not know that the war is about to break out, so we just seize the opportunity to move around, once the war breaks out, the arms company will inevitably increase its price. ”
"So we can buy some war stocks, and we can also lease some factories at a low price in the meantime to expand production. ”
"There are stocks in the Musou World?"
"Yes. ”
"Then why don't you just trade stocks?"
"Because the city doesn't allow it, it's against the principle of fairness. But as we are now, the outbreak of war is not pre-designed, there is no cheating, and it is not necessarily that every arms company will have its stock up, and the risk is still there, so there is no problem. ”
Talk.
At that time, Shirley suddenly said:
"I don't understand why we're bothered with selling arms only to Aaronte. Why can't we sell those infantry mechs and shaped cannons from the Aronte Empire to the Lionheart Kingdom? The two continents will jointly attack the Gods and Demons Continent, and the Gods and Demons Continent must be under great pressure, presumably they will be willing to give a better price, right? Don't tell me that the people of the Gods and Demons Continent can't use it, this doesn't make sense. ”
Everyone was on the hook at the same time.
Everyone looks at each other.
Shen Yi suddenly asked, "Have you ever watched the movie Lord of War?"
Shirley shook her head in confusion.
"Then all I can say is that you are a gifted businessman. Shen Yi was sincerely impressed.
If you don't sell arms to fight your own country, you can't be considered an international arms dealer!
