Section 120 Formation (Part II)
Solomon granted Tieya's request and promised to deliver the thousand guns to him in advance.
But that's all Solomon can satisfy, and asking for more is out of Solomon's power.
The firebolt is a product of the Khos dwarves, but its production is very limited due to the fact that it is still a handicraft workshop.
From the raw material to the finished product, each firearm is now made by dwarven craftsmen or their disciples.
Solomon tried to convince the dwarven craftsmen to change their process by dividing it into several steps, each of which was handled by a dedicated person to improve efficiency.
At first, the dwarves were not convinced, so Solomon conducted an experiment with fifty dwarves who had been apprentices in the Black Rock plane.
After spending some time in Keos, the fifty Black Rock Dwarves had already learned some of the trades from the Dwarven Craftsmen.
Then, according to Solomon's requirements, reinforcement learning was carried out, that is, each person specialized in the part of the fire gun to make the zuò, and then combined it into a complete process of making the zuò, and then the same number of apprentices was compared with the dwarven apprentices of Keos.
It turned out that in the same amount of time, the Black Rock Dwarven Apprentice was able to produce more firebolts than the Khos's Dwarven Apprentice, but in terms of quality, the Khos's Dwarven Apprentice was the winner.
This is actually quite normal, because the manufacturing level of the Black Rock Dwarven Apprentice, the time and experience of starting to learn to forge cannot be compared to the Dwarven Apprentice of Keos.
So actually, the result of the competition is that the Black Rock Dwarven Apprentice can be considered to have won, and the reason is only according to Solomon's design. It's just changed the way casting is produced.
Still, Solomon underestimated the stubbornness of the dwarves. Even after seeing this result. The dwarves still insisted that doing so would damage their reputation and reduce their status as craftsmen.
Solomon was unable to change these stubborn thoughts for a while, so the production of firecrackers could not be increased.
Now his joint venture with the dwarves and Cecilia is already one of the weapons suppliers in Asturias, although things like firebolts are not accepted by Asturias, but the weapons, armor and other things forged by the dwarves meet the needs of the army, and because the dwarves are more skilled in casting, the armor produced is often the best of the best.
As for the firebolts, except that the dwarves will use them for their own use. For the time being, Solomon was divided into two parts.
The first is internal purchase, the legion he is forming intends to form a firecracker team as well.
However, this world is no better than the time and space before he traveled, and it is only equivalent to the level of the gun in front of the gun, and the direction of civilization represented by the gun does not have the future and potential of that time and space.
Just by Strauss's shot, it is known that it is the equivalent of a "humanoid bomber".
In the time and space before the time travel, a single bullet could hit or kill the opponent, but in this world, it is obvious that the firearm cannot do it, and it is almost impossible to follow that route completely, and it will be suppressed by the magical civilization. Otherwise, the dwarves of Keos would have replaced the human and beast races as the overlords long ago.
But for now, it's still feasible to form a firecracker.
The other is to export to the Kingdom of Stonefist as it is now. It can not only earn all kinds of ores that Solomon needs, but also use them to increase the power of Tieye.
With the success of the Battle of Eugudral, Asturias has tasted the sweetness of unity and the opening of new dimensional trade, and the next prospect is to see a large-scale expansion of the plane.
Of course, Solomon will not let go of such an opportunity, and will definitely shift his focus to exploration and development in other planes in the future.
But the Black Rock Plane is also very important to him now, and in the embryonic form of his magical industry plan, the Black Rock Plane was the source of power.
On the premise of not planning to invest too many troops here, he can only choose to increase the strength of the Stone Fist Kingdom with restrictions, use the dwarves to control the dwarves, and at least use the Stone Fist Kingdom to ensure his interests in the Black Rock Plane, including the mining of the Black Rock and the excavation of underground minerals.
And the cooperation with the Koos dwarves and Cecilia can turn raw materials into finished products, and a steady stream of self-sufficiency, as well as supply to the army and war of Asturias.
It's a win-win for all of them, thanks to Solomon's military industry, the Koos dwarves will not only be able to survive but even live a good life after they migrate.
The collaboration with Cecilia is only part of the collaboration with the Mage, and after the success of the Black Rock and the creation of a Wizard City built by Yugudral, who relied on the Black Rock as a power source, Solomon was able to cooperate with the Wizards' Guild and the Royal Mage Order of Asturias.
Before visiting the Black Rock Plane, Solomon had successfully persuaded Edward to begin the expansion of the Fourth Outer.
This outlying town was not primarily inhabited, but a new type of workshop was built.
Solomon's design was such that the Fourth Outer City would be divided into several sub-districts, each of which would house a number of workshops.
For example, Mr. Saul, who had experimented with the effects of steam, had agreed to invest in a large mill and a bread baking factory in one of the neighborhoods.
In production, mills are usually located outside the city where there are rivers or in the wilderness, so that they can continue to produce with the help of water or wind.
The layout of this workshop community is that all the workshops in the community are built around rows of steam boilers made by dwarves, and are modified accordingly to facilitate the use of steam power.
With the use of steam power, a mill like Mr. Saul's can be expanded several times over, and production can be carried out day and night.
Solomon's layout originally considered the industrial chain, so the flour from the mill could be directly sent to the bread baking factory in the same industrial area, and then the fragrant bread was baked and sent to the same Mr. Saul's shop pù to sell.
The productivity has improved dramatically, and Mr. Saul is smiling from ear to ear.
The only disadvantage of this is that it is necessary to invest in the initial construction of a steam boiler cluster that can be used as a power source for an industrial community and provide continuous power.
This is not something that Mr. Saul can afford alone, so the neighborhood designed by Solomon should be a collection of multiple workshops. The initial construction and renovation costs will be borne by each workshop owner.
But not until Solomon came to inspect the Black Rock Plane. At present, there are still many wait-and-see people. Only people like Mr. Saul, who had already tasted the sweetness, were willing to support, and Solomon also invested in two workshops, was able to fill this experimental industrial complex, and reduce the initial construction cost to a point that was barely acceptable to everyone.
Even so, like Mr. Saul, who was able to build a mill several times larger than his predecessor and a new type of bakery, had financial difficulties in one go.
At this point, it was Solomon's turn to cooperate with the Hidden Alliance.
Solomon announced a capital increase and share expansion of the previously established central bank, and Asturias was of course unable to ask for it. Because it means that there is a possibility of new borrowing.
And the shareholders did not object, and the previous borrowing was already secured.
What's more, with the unfolding of the war, the battle of Yugudral has been secured, and it is also Asturias who has reversed the disadvantage, the latter is not only because of the lower teleportation threshold, but also because of the sufficient funds to support the dispatch of a large number of soldiers to fight the plane war, in order to defeat the resistance, and deter Titania
The victory in the war not only further strengthened the basic interests of the shareholders. There are also quite a few hidden interests in existence.
For example, after the base of Yugular was stabilized, the trade route was reopened. The shareholders of the central bank have a virtual right of first refusal.
So they have no objection to borrowing again, as long as they can get new benefits.
But in order to increase borrowing, there must also be a new way, through the guò central bank borrowing, according to the mode of operation of Solomon, not only when borrowing the risk is greatly reduced, but also the generous light and dark interests are also satisfactory; but other private borrowing may not have such good luck, everyone knows that there is a chance in the war, but those who lend money to a wandering warrior in the disadvantage, in the disadvantage of Farushion, may lead the creditor to lose all their money because of complete defeat, because even the borrower may have died in a foreign land。
Capital increase and share expansion means that the central bank's capital increases, and it is also able to continue borrowing or investing when the previous debt is not mature.
This time, though, most people were overjoyed.
Because the capital increase and share expansion led by Solomon this time seems to be fair on the surface, but in fact it is for the secret alliance to enter the market.
In order to show fairness, he designed the way in which the shares were traded, in the form of commodities, with a fixed price as the line price, and sold through the commodity exchange, so that the primary and secondary markets of the stocks were formed on the basis of the commodity exchange.
On the surface, this is very fair, because if it is sold as a commodity on a commodity exchange, theoretically anyone can buy it.
But in fact, no, in the primary market (the industrial market), it is natural for Solomon to demand that one (group) be able to buy all the shares of this capital increase, which requires a huge amount of money.
The capital threshold alone keeps the small fish out, and even those interested businessmen want to raise funds to buy it, because they have their own funds and need to turn around in various trade routes.
At this time, those who are qualified and able to eat are only the core members of the commodity exchange with Kindleberg and Derek as the core, and even after they received the news in advance that Solomon was going to increase the capital and expand the shares of the central bank, they were also affected by other aspects in raising funds, such as the investment in the heterogeneous trade route, which had already occupied a considerable part of the funds when they purchased the first phase of bank shares in the early stage.
The Hidden Alliance naturally got half of the capital increase, and the rest was purchased by the merchant group formed by Derek and the Franklin Bank.
Together, the three companies were responsible for about 80 per cent of the capital increase, and the remaining 20 per cent was left on the secondary market, where it was not represented by advances by the commodity exchange, and could be purchased by any Asturian, or non-Asturian with the approval of the Minister of International Trade and trade, and freely traded on the commodity exchange.
In this way, Asturias was the first to form a stock exchange market. (To be continued!)
