Chapter 70 Intelligence Cooperation
"Cooperation? Could you please tell us more about it?"
Vice President Russell said curiously, benefiting from the channels provided by adventurers from all over the empire, the main business of the Adventurers' Guild actually has the intelligence business, and Russell can be said to know the intelligence industry very well if he can be the vice president of the Imperial Capital Adventurers' Guild.
But even so, Vice President Russell couldn't imagine what this kind of cooperation could take that didn't require a channel to share information.
"Has Lord Russell heard of the Imperial Capital Chronicle? It was a newspaper founded by the newspaper affiliated with my New Leaf Chamber of Commerce, and this newspaper needed a lot of news.
At present, we have reached a cooperation with the Eugene Chamber of Commerce and the Brooke Chamber of Commerce, and let some of their names and coachmen provide information, and each accepted message will pay them between 10 and 100 copper pebis according to a certain standard.
However, there was still a big gap in the newspaper page, so I had a story serialized on it......
Before Xia Lin's words could be finished, he was interrupted by Vice President Russell, who was full of surprise:
"Wait! "Imperial Capital Xunbao"? I know, it's the newspaper that serialized "Holy Grail War", right? I didn't expect that it was actually founded by His Excellency Xia Lin's Chamber of Commerce?
The members of our guild love this story, and even specially found a newsboy to deliver newspapers regularly, but unfortunately it takes ten days to see two chapters, which is too little!
By the way, Lord Xia Lin, which Heroic Spirit will win this war? It should be His Majesty the Sun King, right? Or is it Artoria, the sword knight?
Is the kingdom of Clanthaya really hosting the Holy Grail War? Is there really a Holy Grail in the world that can grant all wishes?"
"How can there really be an almighty wishing machine in the world, Lord Russell, don't take the setting in the story seriously, this story is just written to let everyone accept the "Imperial Capital Xunbao".
As for which Immortal will emerge victorious...... I don't think it's better to reveal it in advance, otherwise Lord Russell will have a lot less anticipation!"
Xia Lin didn't expect that "Holy Grail War", which was serialized in the "Imperial Capital Xunbao", would gain a group of fans so quickly, and said with a wry smile when asked.
"That's right...... But it's really desirable! Heroes from different eras gather together to compete with each other in martial arts, and if The Holy Grail War could be published as a book, I would definitely buy it!"
Vice President Russell shook his head regretfully and continued:
"So, the cooperation that Your Excellency Xia Lin is talking about is that the Imperial Capital Xun needs our Adventurers' Guild to send some information regularly for publication in the newspaper?"
"That's right! We need information on some big events, such as the progress of the war on the borders of the Empire, all kinds of things happening in the country, even if the news is delayed!
In return, after the Imperial Capital Xunbao adopts these messages, it will pay the Adventurers' Guild 5, 10, and 20 gold lunts according to the importance of the news!"
"That's fine, we can sign the contract now!"
Vice President Russell nodded, and asked one of his retinues to prepare the contract.
If Xia Lin proposed to share the information channels of the Adventurers' Guild, Vice President Russell would naturally not agree, and even if he agreed, Xia Lin would have to pay a great price.
But if you only selectively exchange information for money, it will be similar to a message seller in a tavern, and this is not a problem.
After signing the intelligence cooperation contract, Harper also sent 200 gold lunds, and Xia Lin, who had completed the commission, suddenly remembered one more thing, and asked Vice President Russell to help him issue a commission to find certain raw materials.
One of these ingredients is related to a crucial experiment he will be embarking on, and on the other hand, he is going to visit the scholars of Ferran Ide University to see if he can find out about the mineral through knowledgeable scholars.
After completing the release of the commission, Xia Lin put away the passbook, looked at the 2134 gold lunt handwritten on it in special ink, and suddenly felt as if he was still not rich enough.
According to the commission I just posted,
With this money, he can only buy five mid-level demonic beasts as experimental subjects, and it seems that the construction plan of the second phase of the factory in the industrial park still has to be put on the agenda.
When he came to the industrial park, Xia Lin went to his office and immediately began to formulate the second phase of the construction plan of the industrial park.
In the second phase of the industrial park, Xia Lin plans to build six factories: caustic soda plant, soap factory, steel mill, steel processing plant, machine processing plant, and brewery, and there is also a factory that Xia Lin has not yet decided to approve the project.
Among them, the caustic soda plant adopts the caustic method to produce caustic soda, which is generally not technically difficult, that is, the soda ash solution is mixed with lime milk at 100 degrees Celsius for reaction, and the caustic solution can be obtained after the clarification and concentration step, which is more than enough to operate at the current level of the employees of the soda ash plant.
The soap factory is to use the principle of saponification reaction of oil and caustic soda, as well as caustic soda and diatomaceous earth to obtain sodium salt of higher fatty acids, and in addition, an extremely important chemical raw material will be produced in this reaction, that is, glycerin.
Originally, Xia Lin was going to use the crucible method to make steel, but now he was ready to wait until he completed that important experiment and got a conclusion, and then chose the method of steelmaking.
As for the iron and steel processing plant, it is very easy to understand, that is, to use the machine tools of the machine tool factory to produce several steel rolling mills, forging machines, pipe rolling mills, and cutting machines, and the initial goal is to be able to produce narrow steel plates, short steel pipes, and round steel bars.
The purpose of the establishment of the machine tool factory is purely to restore the essence of the machine tool factory, focusing on the production and development of more precise machine tools, rather than doing machining work all day long in the name of the machine tool factory.
After the development of steel machine tools, the machine tool factory became the core of the current industrial park, and Xialin set up strict security measures and basically closed to the public.
Only Xia Lin and the Dwarven Master can enter and exit freely, and the rest of the workers, even the workers who transport the raw materials, need to enter the factory with the cooperation of the Dwarven Master.
When the machine factory is established, Xia Lin plans to recruit a group of employees in the literacy class in the industrial park to learn the operation and use of machine tools with the dwarf masters.
The main reason for the establishment of the second phase of the industrial park construction plan is that the sugar and refined salt plant has produced so much molasses that even the wooden barrels in the warehouse are piled up in several layers.
Although molasses is similar to honey, it only has an extremely long shelf life, and it is not completely unbroken.
Therefore, in addition to supplying Carl Cake Shop, Xia Lin also asked the canteen to be responsible for selling these molasses in the vicinity of the industrial park for a limited extent, about two or three centimeters square molasses blocks are sold for 5 copper bis, which is very popular with the labor-intensive workers in the industrial park.
The use of molasses to make wine maximizes the value of brown sugar and can also produce alcohol, an industrial raw material, which can be said to have many benefits.
