Chapter 1383: Dragon Island Raiders for Difficult Birth

Because the trip of the Greco family's fleet was imminent, Lin didn't make much preparation, so he followed William to his family's ship.

The design of the sea ship is quite advanced, and it is directly based on the construction of the Galen sailing ship. And the Galen ship is in the hometown of a certain crosser, but the wooden sailing ship before the advent of the steamship era has developed to the extreme. Including the gun emplacements on the side sides, the layout of the mast and rudder, it can be seen that there is the shadow of an unknown crossing senior.

However, there are no artillery in the Lost Land, so the guns of the Lost Sea ships are equipped with ballistas. One of the great things about the Ballista is that it can be used in conjunction with the Magic Crossbow, which is one of the few weapons that can kill and injure sea beasts.

In contrast, artillery shells are more difficult to magically process; Someone who has tried to make a physical magic bullet knows this very well. Lin speculated that this was also a big reason why the unknown predecessor did not introduce artillery technology. After all, they all know the Galen ship, and it is impossible not to know the artillery, which is all a product of the same period.

The magic weapons of ordinary warriors, or the attack magic of mages, are no different from tickling for sea beasts with huge sizes. Only when you use a siege-level weapon can you inflict damage on the opponent. The sea ship with a ballista is the best combination.

Most of the ships in the fleet were three-masted galleons with a high carrying capacity. However, because the transport of large livestock, mainly cattle and sheep, in order to maintain the minimum space for movement, the transportation capacity cannot be increased, so the number of ships can only be increased. After all, cattle and sheep are living creatures that can't be stacked and arranged tightly like ordinary goods.

The ships that Lin and William were waiting for were the battleships that belonged to the fleet. It is smaller, but the number of masts and sail area will not be lost to those large ships at all. This means that the combat ship is faster and more agile. This has certain advantages in battles over the oceans.

However, because unlike the ships of the Age of Discovery, there is still a need for gunpowder and cannonballs, so the ships of Midi have a relatively large margin in terms of carrying capacity. These extra compartments were not used to carry the supplies needed by other ships, but to carry the main interests of the fleet, that is, the private goods carried by the family, as well as some 'personal extras' stuffed by the Imperial Navy.

The largest amount of private goods used to trade with Dragon Island is coins, and then all kinds of crystals, gems, and magic stones; There are also many white waste magic stones that have run out of power. There are also some glass beads in it, if someone isn't dazzled......

In addition, there are also some strange goods and artworks designated by the dragon. There are even some craftsmen! However, these people were not sold to Dragon Island, but went to work on Dragon Island, and after doing so, they would follow the fleet back to the main continent. For example, help some dragons carve stone statues, or help some dragons in human form paint an image, etc.

Ignoring the fact that the merchants of the Karlsruhe Empire dared to fool the dragons with glass beads. It was only then that Lin noticed one of his blind spots, which was the coins stored on Dragon Island. This made someone's trip to Dragon Island from the original stop-by to a trip that had to be taken.

Where there is money, it should be the place where the goddess of gold coins shines!

However, to open a bank on Dragon Island, you still need to consider and evaluate on the spot before you can make a decision.

The reason why I say this is because the dragons ask for money, not by the value of the coin, but by the precious metal itself. Making a bed with gold coins can be said to be the most enthusiastic thing for dragons, and they love to compare the most. In other words, the dragons' view of 'money' is not so much a medium of exchange as an ornament and ornament.

In this environment, the high or low precious metal content of the coin itself is not the point. As long as the quantity is large enough and looks amazing, that's enough. This is reflected in the fact that a significant portion of the coins transported by the Greco family's fleet are sinister money that is disdained elsewhere.

If it weren't for the bank that someone was promoting, the value of the bad money would have exploded. It is definitely more advantageous to exchange the bad money in the bank than to use the bad money directly at a discount, and it is estimated that all the inferior coins that cannot be circulated in the empire will be used to trade with Dragon Island. Because that's what it used to do.

But now the actual value of bad money has been discovered by the banks, but the banks have not yet fully spread in the empire. This allows most holders of bad money to keep their coins and wait for the bank to officially open near them, so as to make the most of the bad money. This made it much more difficult for the Greco family to collect coins.

In the past, some families challenged their mastery of the Dragon Island route, and it was because of the lack of coins that they asked for help. As a result, this became a sign of the Greco family's weakness in the eyes of outsiders. In order to deal with the challengers, and to collect enough money, they almost didn't have time to catch the fleet.

And this fact means that if you want to use the difference in value between coins, it will not be very useful to encourage dragons to use the bank to exchange Coins. It's like serving a plate of delicate dishes to a person who only pays attention to eating is not enough.

Different needs require different strategies. But for the time being, Lin hasn't thought of a good way.

In addition, the coins left on Dragon Island cannot become part of the currency in circulation, which is not conducive to the growth of the gold coin goddess. For the route that Lin planned for the goddess, the most important thing was to let the coins with the mark of the goddess, namely the Coins, circulate in a mysterious place. The focus is on circulation!

But the dragons' habit is to save. Accumulate wealth without using it. This is contrary to the original intent of 'circulation'.

Saving is a good habit, but it is one of the factors that cause economic stagnation for society as a whole. Like some large consumer countries, the concept of 'advanced consumption' has even been coined, so that people have to become mules under the whip of capital, carrying debts and moving forward.

Such an approach will make some economically disadvantaged people become sacrifices and leeks of capital, and let wealth be concentrated in the hands of a few. But doing so can create economic prosperity.

However, it is a funny joke that the capitalists demand that their employees give themselves selflessly and work overtime in addition to their normal working hours. I can't wait to compress the time for eating, sleeping and going to the toilet, and put my heart and soul on the company.

The business is on call 24 hours a day, except for the liver explosion or the liver explosion. Because the customer is God and the boss is the master, their requirements must be fulfilled unconditionally and perfectly. In this way, it can be called a small screw in the company's machinery to promote the company's progress.

The progress of the company will lead to the progress of the whole society, and finally move towards the perfect ending of the collective sublimation of the whole society. As for the fact that the little screws only receive a meager remuneration compared to that of the capitalists, no one cares.

On the contrary, the whole society is persuading the little screws to cherish their blessings. Because some people don't even have the qualifications to be screws. Those who are not qualified can only wallow in the mud and be maggots.

The employees worked hard to do it, and in order to make the bosses happy, they gave almost 100% of their time and the best of their years. But the bosses are not satisfied, and capital drives them to work harder to exploit everything and achieve themselves.

However, employees who have lost all their personal time have no time to run their families, or they will not be able to raise qualified next generations. Suddenly, the capitalists found out that the leeks were out of generation!

Well...... Whose fault is it?

Farmers grow rice and eat rice, but they still know that they can only sow seeds in the next year. Now even the rice planted has been milled into rice and eaten, and I will plant a ball next year. Who is to blame? It's just right to eat soil.

In short, such prosperity will eventually go to a bubble, or continue to be gratifying, depending on the ability of the person at the helm. It's just thirty years to the east of the river, and thirty years to the west of the river...... Forget it, it's useless to talk too much.

And the good habits that the dragons happen to form because of their greedy habits are actually the opposite of Lin's thoughts. If you want to reverse the habits of the dragons, you will undoubtedly seek fish from the wood. Then the secondary option is how to make the gold coin goddess also establish a certain status among the dragons.

It doesn't necessarily require a deep level of faith, and it's hard for such a group of proud creatures to devout themselves in a god, even the rumored dragon god. But as long as the dragons know Ke Yin, it is a great progress.

It must be known that most dragons don't even care about the gods, which is also related to the fact that the dragons have achieved the achievement of expelling the gods several times in history. Although it is not a god butcher, it also proves that the so-called 'god' is not high in front of the 'dragon'. Naturally, they don't care who the gods are.

But how do you make this god boss, my second child's clan, remember a goddess of gold coins? Lin had no clue at all......

On the one hand, it is because from the beginning of the Ninth Power Project, there was no such thing as dragons. Now that there is suddenly such a group with a lot of personality, Lin can't think of any proper way to arrange them for a while.

On the other hand, it is also due to Lin's unfamiliarity with the dragon clan. There aren't many dragons I know, and there are only a handful of dragons alive. Since they don't have a deep understanding, they naturally can't know where the actual needs of the dragon clan are. Since you don't know the requirements, you can't purposefully write about the needs and direct the results in the direction you want.

Although supply does not necessarily mean that the target has demand, even if the other party does not have such demand, it can be created in a way. It's like the candy company in my hometown that makes a Valentine's Day in order to sell chocolates.

But the premise of all this is that you have a certain understanding of the dragons, so that you can find the demand, or create the demand for them. Until then, everything that had been envisaged was as unrealistic as a castle in the air.

Therefore, after going to Dragon Island, it is not a matter to hide and visit the sights to see before leaving. Do you have to communicate with dragons from various positions to be able to accomplish your goals?

Thinking of this, Lin somewhat regretted slaughtering those two dragons before. As long as it is a living being, it is affected by first impressions. My first impression of the dragon clan was that he was a dragon slayer. This name, which is very majestic on the outside, will receive so many eyes on Dragon Island that someone will feel a headache just by imagining it.

Before he could sink into deeper troubles, the unusually violent shaking of the ship pulled Lin's consciousness back from his crankiness.
