Wei Yuan was waiting at the border early on. He saw smoke and dust rolling in the distance, covering the sky and the earth, with a huge momentum. The roar of giant beasts was like thunder, coming from afar, one after another.
The volume can come from dozens of miles away. This is obviously a magical beast, and it is a group of people.
The Qingming Guards had all seen big scenes and were quickly ready to fight in the bunker.
Amid the roar of the giant beast, an iron chariot rushed out of the smoke and dust, smashing heavily on the ground like a mountain. Even if Wei Yuan stood in the distance, he could truly feel the tremor.
With a loud and primitive wild beast roaring, the chariot with barbed appearance raised upwards, and twelve pairs of thick and powerful legs stretched out from below, then took off their big strides and rushed towards them!
The chariot was like a real giant beast, running wildly to Wei Yuan, and its legs suddenly stepped on the ground to brake, but the huge inertia still pushed the chariot forward for more than ten feet, and thick legs plowed deep ditches on the ground, and then they barely stopped.
The raised sand instantly passed through the fortifications of Qingming Guards, and gave the defenders inside a bath.
The roof of the chariot slowly opened, Tianyu poked out his upper body and waved to Wei Yuan excitedly. Then his huge body took off, and twelve little beautiful witches held him out of the chariot and landed steadily in front of Wei Yuan.
Tianyu said, "How about my new twelve-wheel drive car?"
Wei Yuan looked speechless and asked back: "Are you talking about the big guy over there, or are these little beautiful witches under your butt?"
"Hehehe, they are all the same, no distinction between each other!" Tianyu smiled honestly. At this time, another roar of a giant beast from the chariot came from the sky, pulling the momentum.
Wei Yuan then realized that the beast's roar came from a strong man in the wilderness clan with a particularly loud voice. He was sitting behind the car, specifically responsible for roaring.
Tianyu explained: "This car needs to be enjoyable. It doesn't matter whether it's fast or not. I'm a professional-level soundtrack. That guy is usually responsible for battle crying in the clan, so it's not cheap for a day!"
Before Wei Yuan could comment, he heard Yu Zhizhuo praise him from afar: "Good car!"
In a blink of an eye, Yu Zhizhuo came to Tianyu's new chariot, circled around the chariot, carefully looked at the details, and even reached out to pinch the big hairy legs of the chariot, constantly placing his mouth.
Tianyu was so happy that he smiled, and immediately led Yu Zhizhuo as his confidant, although he didn't know who this person was.
After looking carefully for a long time, Yu Zhizhuo said, "Good idea! I have been worried that those mechanical parts, engines and other things are too fine. No matter how you deal with it, it will be impossible to shake a little mana. Moreover, the power is soft and you don't have much strength at all.
Now after looking at this car, I realized that we monks are the best engines and we don’t need those mechanical things at all!”
Wei Yuan knew that the uncle had an old problem again, so he let him study it, turned to look at Tianyu, and asked, "What's the good thing about this time?"
Tianyu said happily: "The ancestors of the clan said that you are now resisting the demon clan outside the sky in the Youhan Realm, so we are our own witch. So we specially asked me to bring a seed of the ancient Xuanzhi as a congratulatory gift!"
When Wei Yuan heard this, he felt a little angry.
Tianyu sent so many spiritual plants before, only one seaweed plant was alive, and the rest were all silent. For example, the stone has been confirmed by Yu Zhizhuo to be a stone. Although it was once a fairy plant and still had a trace of aftertaste, in the words of the outside world, it should now be called a fossil.
Seeing Wei Yuan's disapproval, Tianyu hurriedly asked for help: "This time it's really different. This was taken out of the ancestor's private treasure house!" Then, Tianyu asked someone to carry a stone ball the size of a tabletop.
It was another stone... Wei Yuan thought to himself, and knew that he should not have too much hope for the ancient things. Even immortals cannot live out of the ancient times. How could these spiritually unscrupulous ones be possible?
But trading is a big deal, and these can only be regarded as small episodes.
Tianyu brought thousands of strong men, carried hundreds of trucks, and brought a total of tens of millions of kilograms of goods. Wei Yuan also prepared wine and hundreds of thousands of pieces of brocade.
Just as both sides were busy transporting goods, Tianyu said, "We have some of the things that are greystone, and Thunder Sands have also discovered a new mine. There is also the spiritual wood you want. There is a tribe that produces spiritual wood a lot of spiritual wood. They are very willing to exchange spiritual wood for brocades. These can be sent to you soon. The elders asked me to ask, what else do we need to do?"
Wei Yuan calculated the trade volume in the near future and future and said, "I think it is necessary for us to build a road."
"Build roads? Why are you doing that thing? Our strongman doesn't need a road? Where can't you jump over?" Tianyu looked confused.
Wei Yuan explained: "Thunder sand, grey stone, and spiritual wood are all very heavy. Your number of strong men is limited, so it is too expensive to let them carry things. When the road is repaired, you can pass the truck. Then you can just let ordinary witches transport goods."
Tianyu's eyes suddenly lit up: "Yes! Ordinary resident people can't spend a lot of money, and the slaves can stutter. These goods do not require strict transportation time, so they can be transported slowly! The money to hire a Daojilis is enough to hire five hundred ordinary resident people."
Nowadays, Tianyu is quite sensitive to cost, and Wei Yuan missed the stupid and particularly scammered Liwu at the time.
Wei Yuan said again: "Our transactions are getting more and more frequent, and there is no need to wait until both parties have prepared them before trading. You can set up an account book in each place, and we agree to a quantity of various materials. If the limit is below, you can transport them to me, and I will do the same. Then we only need to check the accounts once a month, settle the equal parts, and transfer the excess parts to next month. What do you think of this method?"
"Very good!" Tianyu's eyes shone and he instantly saw the huge business opportunity.
"Then how much brocade do you plan to want?" Wei Yuan asked.
"The more you have, the better!" Tianyu answered without hesitation. Then, Tianyu asked back: "How much grey stone, spiritual wood and thunder sand do you want?"
"Same, the more you have, the better." Wei Yuan responded with a smile.
At this point, both sides were very happy.
Afterwards, Tianyu discussed the details of the road construction with Wei Yuan. The trade road would lead to the Red Sand Oasis. To allow ordinary trucks to pass smoothly, they had to bypass some dangerous places, so the total length was nearly 4,000 miles. Apart from the existing roads, it was still necessary to build 1,500 miles. Tianyu waved his hand and directly contracted a road construction project of 1,000 miles. Wei Yuan only needed to build 500 miles.
The matter was discussed properly, and Tianyu suddenly said: "The road is built, and the witch army will quickly arrive in Qingming in the future. You have to build fortifications in advance. Our Huangzu is just a small tribe, and we can't make decisions on some things."
"Don't worry." Wei Yuan reached out and patted Tianyu on the shoulder. Although Tianyu was being lifted by the little witches at this moment, his shoulder was at a height of 150 feet.
At this time, Tianyu didn't understand that the road does not naturally belong to one side. Whoever has stronger force will belong to whom it belongs.
After seeing Tianyu off, Wei Yuan immediately decided to build fifty new workshops to double the production capacity of Jijin.
Now that the foreign monsters are in a state of obscurity, Wei Yuan must accelerate the integration of resources from all parties and improve Qing Ming's overall strength as much as possible. This requires a lot of manpower, both mortals and monks are indispensable.
Under the existing system, mortals have no value in the Nine Kingdoms, but Qingming still has a manpower gap of at least a few million. It is far from enough to rely on refugees to come spontaneously. Wei Yuan decided to promote another Western Jin Dynasty to encourage more refugees to emerge.
After returning to Qingming, Wei Yuan opened a special map.
There are several lines drawn by Wei Yuan himself on the map, each line marked with different numbers. With Qingming as the core, the first line indicates that refugees can spontaneously walk to Qingming's area. This line is one thousand miles east of Hanyang Pass, which is the farthest distance for refugees to leave the customs. The second line is the range where Qingming caravans can gather refugees on a large scale, and currently extends to six thousand miles east of Hanyang Pass.
Within the first line, after a series of operations in Weiyuan, the price of grain has risen by 50%. Although there is grain inflow in other areas, according to the estimates of human fireworks, the overall grain supply in the region has decreased by 20 million kilograms every year.
According to the limit of 200 kilograms of grain to feed one person, 100,000 new refugees will be added in a year. But in fact, refugees will not leave their hometown when they are about to starve to death, so the actual number of refugees will be more.
As the grain prices in this area increase, the grain in the area within the second line will flow into here, so a large number of refugees will appear in the second line, and the Qingming Caravan will gather more refugees.
Although this method is a long-term solution, it is relatively slow to take effect now. The fastest way now is to buy refugees from the powerful and wealthy countries of Jin and Zhao.
As long as it is profitable, local officials like Cui Shutong will naturally come up with various ways to create countless refugees, as much as they need.
This method requires a lot of fairy silver. Wei Yuan has been thinking about what to use to earn fairy silver. Brocade will make a lot of money in the future, but it is not possible now. When the new workshop is completed, Wei Yuan plans to double the amount of brocade sold to the eight counties of Ningzhou, and the price will be directly set at the cost line of the Dajinxing, which will put those Dajinxing in a dilemma that it is neither production nor production nor production.
In the end, we have to sweep all the big brocade shops, so that these places only make mulberry silk and turn them into Qingming’s raw material supply site.
As for other industries that make money, you can actually see that by looking at the various halls of Taichu Palace, it is nothing more than Feng Shui, elixirs, magic tools, and spiritual plants and pets. The poorest fight is the one that uses the hardest to fight.
After pondering for a while, Wei Yuan wrote the word "Magic Tool" on paper. In this world of great struggle, monks' fighting is the most critical. No matter how poor a monk is, he can not take medicine, and a Taoist partner can not have it, but he must have a suitable weapon.
In order to make a good magic weapon, many monks even sacrificed their lives.
The plan was decided, Wei Yuan calculated the time, and left Qingming and rushed straight to the northern mountain gate.
On this trip, we have to pick up our senior sister to the Youhan Realm, and on the other hand, we have to ask Master Xuanyue for ways to deal with monsters outside the sky. The threat of monsters outside the sky is not a matter of one person and one earth. There is clearly a big and thick leg of Taichu Palace, how could Wei Yuan not hold it? Besides, it is easier to find the obscure records of Tianyuan from past ancestors.
