Open the Empire interface, the content of this header makes Dane helpless.
He couldn't be more diligent, and he reasoned that during the three months of rapid development, the overall economic income of Comilla, Bailangbao, and Shawan Port has almost doubled.
But unfortunately, his expenditure has also tripled.
Among them, the major investment is of course military expenditure. The White Wolf Guard and the White Wolf Cavalry are very useful and powerful units. At the same time, the pure swordsman is also a very powerful force for frontal combat. Not to mention the forest elves of Orineldo. The ranger's long-range strike ability is probably not able to find a second competitor. Sword dancers are not good at fighting attrition. Rarely can find better infantry than them.
But the army is elite, and the cost will naturally increase. Not to mention that during the three months and the new batch of troops that have been launched to start training, Dane has doubled the number of regular army troops in his hands.
Where does this military expenditure not increase?
In addition to military expenditures, another major expenditure increase is that after several Comillas were built, the workshops on enchantment and alchemy that were put into use before they had produced no effective products had already been Began to burn a lot of gold coins.
The first-level and second-level magic workshops basically have no other functions except the preliminary processing of some related raw materials. Although the initial processing of raw materials can bring a certain output value, how much money can be made really is not necessarily.
This can be quite far away from the magic industry Dion expected, and Comilla's own geographical location is not suitable for this work.
On the island of Comilla, between the Shire and Orodic continents, although it is slightly off course, if it can develop its own characteristics, it can still be a very good shipping transit point. Dane has also been committed to developing the ghost knife port that relies on Orineldo into a more prosperous place than the Shawan port.
After all, Ghostblade Port has natural advantages that Sand Bay Port does not have-as a transit port, it can radiate more than just Schindler. To the west, the coast of the Southern Cross and even the more prosperous Gold Coast, which is almost at the center of the world, can be radiated.
The premise is that ghost knife port must develop.
Obviously, it is only the initial processing of magic materials, which does not give Ghostblade Port the ability to grow up.
The origin of primary raw materials is a fortune, but that's just selling raw materials. Although magic minerals are precious, there are some in various places. This kind of food that eats by the face of God can be encountered but not sought.
But Comilla has it.
And the initial processing of materials, this industry can do more people.
Although there is no soil for this type of industry in the less orderly land of Schindler, this does not mean that there is no other place. Among them, the continent that has done the best in this regard is the Shire mainland.
The main inhabitants of Shire are halflings, dwarfs and elves, as well as a small number of humans and dwarves. Among these races, except for the elves who have the ability to make high-end magic products, there are no other races. But other races are quite capable of the initial processing of raw materials. Especially halflings and dwarfs, these two races are not tall, but their heads are very clever. Their ability in this regard is simply outstanding.
Although the system base is very powerful, Dane would not be naive to think that relying on one base can fight with one continent and two races in this regard.
What's more, in the industrial chain he conceived, Shire Mainland is an indispensable force that he must rely on.
Under the circumstances that this business couldn't be grabbed and could not be grabbed, Dane took his brain to desperately develop those industries that processed raw materials.
Therefore, after the two workshops of Enchanting and Alchemy were established, Dane did not let them directly use it, but instead smashed his strength and planned to directly upgrade these two important buildings to the fourth level. .
By the fourth level, both the enchantment and the alchemy workshop will have a series of products that can really be said to be 'high-end'.
For example, the enchantment of equipment and weapons adds special attributes such as sharpness, sturdiness, and gravity; for example, the alchemy factory can also start to produce good healing potions and potions to improve strength and physical fitness.
These things can really generate sales.
Raw materials he has. Black crystal is a very good raw material for enchanting. Black crystal can be used for sharp attributes and gravity attributes. At that time, he will be able to leave a part of the produced black crystals in his own hands to do the equipment to complete the enchanting process. At that time, it will be used to arm its own troops, and the combat effectiveness of the legion will be unprecedented. And if it is directly exported, the profits of such high-tech thresholds are simply terrible.
Much scarier than selling black crystals directly!
In terms of alchemy, Dane has a sulfur mine, and the most basic material has been satisfied. And the other important raw material needed for alchemy-herbal medicine and some special plants, although he does not have a direct origin now, in fact, he has already laid out in advance.
The moon well in Orinite is really a good thing. The farmland or orchard is built around the moon well, and the yield is too high to believe. Now that we can build farmland and orchards, why can't we rely on Moonwell to construct a herbal plantation?
Of course it is possible!
Under Dane's advice, Faal already started to do this.
What's more, the most famous product of the Shire mainland is a variety of rich planting industries. Large quantity, high quality and low price, it is really impossible to import raw materials and raw materials, and then directly produce finished products for sale ~ EbookFREE.me ~ is also a good way.
The prospects are bright, and the road is rough.
The upgrade conditions and costs of the alchemy and enchantment workshop were so expensive that it hurt Dane.
He has already thrown almost 20,000 gold coins on these two buildings in Orinel. At the same time, in the past three months, the mage tower of Eastlin and the monastery of Max Hill were in Dane's Under the directive, instead of directly training formal mages and priests, they switched to training easier and cheaper apprentices.
These apprentices cannot enter the battlefield, and they will not play any role. However, they will be very good people working in Alchemy and Enchant Factory.
However, the training of these personnel is also an expensive expense. For three months, the investment of ten thousand gold coins still cannot see immediate results.
This has always been a very depressing place for Dane. Even, he once wondered whether his chosen development direction was really wrong?
However, the long-term efforts finally greeted the return. (To be continued.)
