Edge of the Apocalypse

Biquge www.xbiquge.cc, the fastest update of the latest chapters on Edge of Doom!The next day, Allen and Edward toured several mines under the control of Storm City.In addition to iron and copper, which are in high demand, there is indeed a small silver mine.There are not many workers in the silver mine, and the output is limited. That's because the silver coins minted by Storm City are already enough for circulation. If there are more, it may cause chaos in the economic system.

At present, more silver produced by silver mines is sold to merchants, who enter craft workshops through merchants' hands, and finally come out as works of art.

When they let the workers in the mine temporarily suspend work and called Lucy.The girl walked into the mine, and Blade Runner reacted immediately.There is no doubt that in addition to real silver, this vein also contains a rare mineral such as Thames silver.If Blade Runner confirms, the value of this silver mine is even higher than that of Storm City.

"From now on, the number of workers in silver mines will be halved and they will be used for copper and iron ore. Next, we will add to the mining of two basic minerals, copper and iron."

In the city lord's mansion, Allen was standing by the window and talking, and the clerk at the back was taking notes seriously.The book in his hand is recording the next development plan of Storm City.Allen continued: "Weapon Workshop, yes, we will gather all the blacksmiths. In addition, the people of Suer City will set up a large weapons workshop. From swords to armors, even artillery components are within our scope of production. Inside. Therefore, the demand for iron and copper minerals will greatly increase. As for silver ore, maintaining a basic output is enough."

"By the way, all the silver produced must be put into storage, and there is no need to sell it to merchants. We save it for later use."

"Yes, sir." The clerk wiped the sweat from his forehead and swiped like flying pens.

Sitting on the sofa, Edward drank black tea slowly and looked at Allen's office with a smile.It was their decision to reduce the number of silver mine workers, temporarily reduce the output of silver mines, and store Tames silver into the warehouse after they had inspected the silver mine in the morning.To realize its value, Thames Silver can only make sense to transport this rare mineral material back to the earth after finding a way back to the earth.

Otherwise, on the planet where the production industry is backward, its role is not much different from pure silver.Now the only beneficiary is Blade Runner. According to the calculation of No. 7, as long as a certain amount of Thames silver is consumed every day, it is expected to return to its full form in the short term.

A full-form Blade Runner, whose combat power will surpass ordinary Awakeners.At that time, the Seventh will be Allen's killer besides the source weapon.Of course, Number Seven only obeys Lucy's orders, so its use is still slightly restricted.

However, this does not prevent Allen from giving it priority to provide Thames silver, which is why the produced Thames silver is required to stop selling to merchants.

Increasing the mining volume of copper and iron ore is not only to conceal the existence of Tames silver, but also a substantial need.With the expansion of the army and the trade with Violet Port, Allen needs more basic minerals in exchange for more wealth.If you simply sell mineral materials, the profit will be thin. It is better to gather blacksmiths from the two places to form a weapon workshop.

Use the materials produced by themselves to process them into weapons and equipment.On the one hand, you can arm your own army, on the other hand, it can also give extra value to mineral materials.Regardless of whether it is to increase the strength of the city or improve the city's economy, the weapon workshop is an imperative project.

More importantly, this weapon workshop will lay a solid foundation for Allen's future arsenal.Whether it is to produce standard ammunition first, or later develop into the production of war weapons such as tanks, guns, etc., a weapons workshop with extensive experience is a must.It can gather more talents, accumulate rich experience, and it is an important cornerstone for Allen to win future wars.

Under this distribution, the combined wealth of the two cities is disappearing at a flowing rate. They are allocated to the recruitment of various talents, the budget of the army, and the upgrading of the city.After the end of this afternoon, the clerk made a simple statistic, that is, the assets on the surface of the two cities seem to be a lot, but in fact, whether it is Edward or Allen, the assets belonging to them are very small. Pathetic.

Seeing this, the clerk couldn't help but feel guilty.After all, there are several other officials like him, and their property is more than that of the two city owners.This is not a good thing. The clerk even wondered whether he had to inform a few old friends that he should generously donate appropriately to fund the construction of the city.After all, the two city masters have exhausted everything for the development of the territory, and they are not very good at hiding their personalities.

After the clerk left, everyone in the city lord’s mansion had dinner together.This was their first true gathering since they came to the New World. The table was filled with ample food. From fine wine to barbecue, the dishes were presented one after another, like running water.Big guys like Broy naturally let go of their appetites and eat special foods. As for Lucy and other young girls, they are relatively reserved.

After tasting a few slices of golden roast, Edward picked up his wine glass and gestured to Allen.The two quietly left the table and sat down in a quiet corner.

"I have a suggestion." Maritan's eyes turned into a mysterious dark purple in the dim corners, looking like stars in the universe, magnificent and distant.

Allen spread his hands: "I'm listening."

"Recently I read some books about the religious culture of the empire." Edward smiled and said: "This country's beliefs are chaotic and belong to a multi-faith country. From the god of war Sabis, to the god of textiles, Crosis. There are dozens of gods, large and small. Even some places believe in the spirits of their ancestors. This is a very interesting phenomenon."

"For this reason, I have checked the teachings of some of these religions. Take the God of War with the largest audience, most of the followers of Sarbes are soldiers. They believe that they will be bravely torn and killed on the battlefield. Even if they die on the battlefield, their souls will rise to death In Sarbis’s Temple of Fighting. Such sayings are prevalent in various sects, and they are similar to each other. It is nothing more than the immortality of the soul in the kingdom of God after death. Do you think this culture is very close to the Christian faith on earth? ?"

"and so?"

"So we can promote the faith of Christ on this planet. After all, in terms of doctrine, they have a lot in common." Edward shrugged: "The Christian faith is worth noting that it emphasizes the uniqueness of the true God. That is to say, when this belief is recognized by people and promoted, it will be difficult for other beliefs to have a foothold. As the only true god, God himself is the omnipotent incarnation, thus replacing the natives to some extent. The function of gods allows people of any faith to pray to them, thus enhancing the tolerance of religion."

Alan sat up a little bit, and he nodded and said, "You mean, we can control people's hearts by promoting religion?"

"When I was free on Babylon, I saw your religious development route. It was also an exclusive war of aggression. The difference was that it was more like a spiritual war. And the facts proved , The characteristics of the only true God, made Christianity stand out among the many gods and beliefs at that time, and it has developed to this day. You have to admit that the world always hopes that the gods they believe in are the most powerful, the omnipotent incarnation, and can satisfy most of their worldly wishes. Based on this, Christianity has determined its status today when it was founded.” Edward shrugged: “The power of religion is powerful, and even more blind. Just think about it, if Christianity is recognized in the empire, And this sect is in our grasp, what a great power it will be? No matter how you describe it, it’s not an exaggeration.

?"

"With the development of the church, the establishment of churches everywhere is equivalent to our eyes and ears in other places. What follows is the donations of believers, the accumulation of wealth, and even the establishment of an army dedicated to the church. An army of fanatics , Needless to say, you also know what kind of power that will be. But the most important thing is that we can win people’s hearts through the church, especially those who are in high positions." Edward smiled indifferently: "The higher the position. , The more I hope to get the blessing of the gods and let my power continue. And what gods are comparable to the omnipotent incarnation of God?"

"This is indeed a good proposal." Allen nodded, smiled and said: "Perhaps I should go back to Suhl. Father Miro will probably be happy to go back to his old career. Maybe he did a good job, he is the world's Christianity. The first pope."

Just thinking of seeing Father Miró for the first time, Allen couldn't connect him with the image of the pope with the crown on his head.

After arranging some of the next major events in Storm City, Allen also plans to go to Violet Harbor to meet Roger, and by the way also get to know several large merchant groups in the area, to lay a solid foundation for future business development.But before that, he decided to take the time to go back to Suer City, so that Miro could prepare and train with Suer City and Storm City to see if he could gather the first group of congregants.

At this time, Roger, who was far away in Violet Harbor, had already received the news of Mod Fuzhu that Storm City changed ownership.After receiving the news, Roger laughed in his study, making the guard Jeraf standing next to him very uncomfortable.In the years he knew Roger, he had never heard the slave merchant smile so hard.

Roger almost choked on tears. He finally stopped his laughter, wiped the corner of his eye with a white handkerchief, and said: "I didn't expect that Maude really lost to a hairy boy. It seems. My bet is considered right."

"Mister ready to cooperate with them?" Jeraf asked.

Roger gladly said: "Why not, that Allen has this kind of method, he will definitely be a big man in the future. If you don't get on his chariot now, and you will go up again in the future, you have to buy a ticket."

"Jeraf, do you know why my business is so big?"

The guard shook his head honestly.

Roger stretched out his hand and touched his beard: "Because my vision has always been very accurate, this time it will of course be no exception!"
