Chapter 589: Departure
Zhang Hao looked at the people who were suddenly quiet below, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly. This time the storm broke out too suddenly, and it was inevitable that someone behind it would be fueled by it.
However, most of the provocations are futile, because the development of things will be completely expected by Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao and the think tank of the Dayang Group are also prepared, and even if they are not fully prepared, at least there is a general direction for the solution. This direction, and even the rules of the game, were originally formulated by Dayang Group!
After announcing the education, Zhang Hao did not give everyone time to react, and announced the major news again:
Three days later, at noon, the Twilight Fleet will officially set sail to chase the sunset. The fleet will pass through Xuanwu Mountain, and those who want to go to Xuanwu Mountain can take a free boat, and those who want to go to the Candle Dragon Continent can also prepare.
In addition, Zhang Hao announced a major resolution: to officially open up routes to the East and Kunlun Zhizhou. To be exact, it is to the east of Kunlun Continent, the country called the Liang Dynasty.
It has been four and a half years since the Liang Dynasty's envoy Gao Shang went to the Ocean Group. After such a long time, Dayang Group has made full preparations.
From the Ocean Group to the Liang Dynasty, the route is more than 100,000 kilometers - this distance seems to be calculated according to the Kuodi Elephant, and the range of fuel warships in the past could not cross such a long distance, and the surrounding environment of the Ocean Group was unstable, so it naturally did not go to the east.
But three years later, things have changed.
First of all, Dayang Group cooperated with West Kunlun to establish a relay station in West Kunlun, and a relay station was established in 'Wuxing Port' in the south of West Kunlun. Coupled with the progress of Dayang Group's technology, fuel efficiency, and storage technology, coupled with the accumulation of these three years, it was finally decided to sail to the East.
In this way, the three fleets of the Ocean Group will begin to get busy.
The Atlantic Fleet, which will explore to the east. Fleet Commander Zhao Yuhang.
The Arctic Ocean Fleet is still struggling here in Xuanwu Mountain. The commander of the fleet is Dugu Junjie.
There is also the newest Twilight Fleet, which will travel to the faraway and unknown West to find and even conquer the Candle Dragon Continent, commanded by Zhao Ke.
Today, the three major naval commanders of the Ocean Group, Dugu Junjie is the peak of Yuanying, Zhao Yuhang is in the middle of Yuanying, and Zhao Ke only has the cultivation of Yuanying in the early stage.
They spent a lot of time and energy on military study, control and understanding of industrial technology, especially Dugu Junjie and Zhao Yuhang, they also had to learn the art of pulling stars; Zhao Ke himself was a disciple of Zhao Dahe, and he learned the art of pulling stars since he was a child, saving this step.
However, Dugu Junjie and the three of them don't have to worry about the transformation period, and the most important thing for the three of them now is to lead the fleet and consolidate their foundation. As for safety and so on, don't worry at all, now the three of them have ten Transformation Stage guards around them at any time - it is the real Transformation God Stage, not the kind of Golden Body Realm.
According to the research of Dayang Group, the temporary view of the golden body realm is not comparable to the traditional transformation period after all.
After 50,000 years of accumulation, the system of exercises, spells, supernatural powers, magic weapons, elixirs, and formations is complete, especially in the traditional god period, which attaches great importance to the cultivation of the original gods, and the intelligence of the cultivation of the original gods has been significantly improved - this is very important for scientific research.
In particular, the immortal qi itself is a purified aura, pure and single.
In contrast, the masters of the Golden Body Realm still need to deduce the exercises by themselves in the later stage, and the Golden Body Realm attaches great importance to the body, and the aura is mixed and has not been purified, so it is not comparable to traditional cultivation from the foundation.
Because of the technology of fairy spirit, Dayang Group also has its own confidence - in another ten years, or decades, when the students of Dayang Group grow up, it is the moment when Dayang Group really takes off.
And even now, Dayang Group's every move has touched the hearts of countless people.
Zhang Hao announced that Dayang Group would trade with Kunlun Zhizhou Oriental, which attracted the attention of many large commercial banks and groups for a while.
Most of these large trading houses had ocean-going voyages, especially some of the former trading houses in Kunlun.
Speaking of the commercial houses in Kunlun Zhizhou, these years have also been bitter.
Before the rise of the Ocean Group, they controlled the trade between the East and the West, and they purchased Xuantie, pills, etc. from the East, and then sold them to the West at a high price.
But since the rise of the Ocean Group, they have lost the Xuantie business in the first place - the price of Xuantie in the Fertile Earth Continent is even lower than the lowest price in the East, and the quality is even better, and this business is simply impossible.
For example, there are very few Oriental dark iron with a purity of 97%, but the Fertile Earth Continent has 99%!
Then a chain reaction begins. They began to buy iron and steel from the West – whereas in the past they would return with the proceeds of the trade to buy medicinal herbs and excellent mineral resources.
After that, their low-level pill business also had to change because of the impact of Xinglintang. Finally, the low-grade pills in the East are mature in technology and have many types, and they can barely be maintained.
However, the good times did not last long, and with the emergence of steel merchant ships, the competition between peers became more and more fierce, and mergers began to appear in the trading houses. The stronger the stronger, the weaker the weaker. However, even those powerful trading houses were financially strapped in order to buy steel merchant ships and even warships.
Fortunately, with the recent rapid development of industry and capital in the West, and the rapid development of the cultivation society, the demand for resources has increased rapidly, but commerce has also been maintained.
If this situation can be sustained for some time, these huge comptoirs should be able to find a new way out. But, but today Dayang Group said: we are going to take it personally!
For a while, I don't know how many business houses and even the country were shocked. No one doubts the capabilities of the Ocean Group, everything in the past is the best proof of this.
Everyone believes that if Dayang Group is really to officially intervene in the trade of the East, it may not be long before everyone will be expelled from this route.
From the east of Kunlun Continent, passing through the south of Kunlun Continent, passing through West Kunlun, and then entering the Emerald Sea, this is the busiest route in the world in the past and even now.
However, in recent years, only due to the indirect influence of the Ocean Group, the commercial trade of this route has suffered a huge impact. Now Dayang Group is going to disrupt the situation directly!
For a while, I don't know how many people quietly inquired about the plans of the Dayang Group, and those who had an equal relationship with the Dayang Group, such as Dong Guo Mingyun, the representative of West Kunlun, directly found Zhang Hao to ask.
Zhang Hao said with a smile: "Don't worry about the seniors, in addition, please tell everyone that the Ocean Group sailed to the east this time to look for opportunities, not to seize the route."
For the Dayang Group, for the situation in the inland sea, the profit from the sale of merchant ships and warships is much higher than the profit from navigation!
A merchant ship has at least tens of millions of high-grade spirit stones, and a voyage in the inland sea, if you want to earn tens of millions of high-grade spirit stones, I am afraid it will take half a year. It takes at least two months to sail back and forth just once.
Of course, since we have gone to sea, we will also purchase some local products and the like, but the core business of Dayang Group is the sale of ships, please rest assured that Dayang Group has a clear share of the priorities. ”
Zhang Hao really didn't look at navigating the inland sea. Besides, this area of interest has a great impact, and unauthorized interference is easy to cause many problems; although the current Dayang Group is good, its heritage is not as good as that of the Holy Land, some big countries, and so on.
Moreover, what Zhang Hao said is also true: The Dayang Group is now building an ordinary merchant ship, which can last for a month, but how can it take two months to run an ocean voyage? This account is too simple.
Zhang Hao said it so clearly, Dongguo Mingyun smiled, "I understand, I'll talk to everyone." ”
There are some things to be clarified, and it is easy to have an accident once there is a misunderstanding. Therefore, the next day, the "Ocean Daily" published the decision of the Dayang Group, to be precise, an advertorial written by the editor of the "Dayang Daily", which analyzed the purpose of the Ocean Group's ocean-going voyage from a personal perspective and from the perspective of pure interests:
It's not about trade, it's about getting to know the world!
Because a long time ago, Zhang Hao said: I want to go to the place where the sun rises, and I want to go to the place where the moon sets.
This advertorial is not Zhang Hao or it seems that the senior management of Dayang Group will speak directly - that will have the effect of showing weakness. Therefore, the advertorial edited by "Dayang Daily" is very appropriate.
After reading it, everyone suddenly understood in their hearts that this is the meaning of Dayang Group.
And in this issue of "Dayang Daily", there is not only one advertorial, but also a second advertorial, which is more profound:
Looking at the current business situation of the Dayang Group, the Dayang Group has always been engaged in high-tech and high-value-added industries; if the profits of the industries decline, the Dayang Group will be transferred.
For example, Darkiron.
At the beginning, Dayang Group monopolized all the dark iron technology, but now, Dayang Group only produces a small amount of low-purity dark iron to meet the basic needs, and the purity of dark iron sold to the outside world starts from 95%, and the dark iron below 95% purity, Dayang Group no longer sells.
On the contrary, Dayang Group began to sell the Xuantie production line, and even helped the state, sects, holy places, etc., to build the so-called 'turnkey project'.
This is true of Xuantie, and the same is true of today's automobile industry, motorcycle industry, and so on. General iron sheets, rails, ordinary black steel parts, etc., Dayang Group has been contracted out. Dayang Group only produces core components such as engines and then assembles them.
These two advertorials have caused great repercussions. Everyone is no longer worried about Dayang Group grabbing business, but everyone has seen the profit model of Dayang Group:
Excellent products, we sell products;
When the profit of the product drops, we sell the technology and equipment, etc.
The crowd was amazed. At the same time, everyone also saw the advantages of technology, and everyone looked forward to the situation of Dayang Group's willingness to open education.
However, negotiations on education are still difficult.
And in the midst of the chaos, the Twilight Fleet, which has been prepared, is finally about to set off.
Even the Atlantic Fleet is ready and about to set off for the East.
