From the "magic pocket", Irwin took out the design drawings of the "Brigentin" brig mixed sailboat that would have been seen by carpenters and engineers from far sails sooner or later.
gently unfolded and placed it on the table in front of the two of them.
"Your Excellency Marquis, please take a look. Although the new design looks a bit like the existing brig, the top speed can easily exceed 11 knots..."
Although he is not a full-time ship engineer, as an industry leader who dominates the New World, countless marquis can easily see the superiority of this new design.
Although this kind of mixed sailboat is small in size and can't carry a few large-caliber artillery, it is of little significance for the naval fleet to conduct frontal naval warfare, but it can be said that it was born for privateing activities.
Because of the long protruding bow and stern posts, the effective length of the deck is increased, and the unique V-shaped bottom design is different from most sailboats today.
Modification is too difficult, and the best choice is of course to rebuild a new ship.
is also the time when the shipyard under his own name shows its talents!
"Hoo"
Marquis let out a sigh of relief, reluctantly raised his gaze from the drawing, his eyes were unabashedly applauded:
"Haha, in a small sailing ship, the limit of my imagination and ship performance may be like this."
Hearing what he said, Ivan thought you would say this because I haven't taken out the drawings of the "flying shears" that I have already drawn.
But in a short period of time, Irving was not ready to carry the "flying shears" to the sea.
If this kind of "flying shears", which are mainly used as merchant ships, is popularized worldwide, the big guys who hope to rob and live their lives will have to drink the northwest wind.
There is currently no pirate ship that can catch up, even a large "flying shear ship" that can run 12-14 knots even with full load. It is the king of speed in the sailing age!
In addition, even if the new "Brigentin Sailboat" is launched, Ivan does not worry that other competitors will the prey belonging to the "Dragon Cavalry Pirate Group".
The speed of the pirate ship is one factor in the success of the raid, but the most difficult thing about the vast sea is how to find the merchant ship.
After entering the observer's field of vision, it is nothing more than a question of how long it takes to catch up with the opponent and whether he has the strength to nibble the opponent down.
In terms of intelligence, at least Ivan is confident that his seabird network will not lose to any other power!
But even though I thought so in my heart, Irvine's face remained calm, and he accepted the Marquis's praise very calmly.
then tentatively said to the Marquis:
"If I grant you the patent for this privateer, and then put it into mass production.
Not to mention Falettis, even the colonies of the entire Tulip Alliance will rush to buy.
At that time, Yuanfanling will rely on the most developed shipbuilding industry in the kingdom and the entire Tulip Alliance, will it still be rich? "
Aiwen never thought that his voice had just fallen, but the Marquis's eyes suddenly gleamed because of the word "finance is rolling".
噌
is not a shining light as it is described, but a great knight powerhouse who can interfere with reality volitionally, and really shoots two rays of light from his eyes.
If an ordinary person is sitting opposite him, it is possible to be fainted directly by the light of those two eye swords.
Seeing this picture of the Marquis, Ivan was slightly surprised.
Sitting on a powerful and extraordinary person with a territory equivalent to a quarter of the mainland, would they still care about things like money?
hesitated for a moment, and felt that it should not be too offensive. What's more, if you want to cooperate with the other party, of course you must understand the other party's economic situation.
then asked the Marquis carefully:
"Your Excellency, are you short of money?"
Marquis Yuanfan realized his situation and coughed slightly and was about to answer.
"Ahem, I..."
suddenly got up and looked out the window as if feeling. Some curious about the other party's abnormal behavior, Ivan also quietly looked at it.
That is...a beautiful lady in a lake green dress.
Beautiful and dignified with a smile, and at this time, taking the two maids for a leisurely stroll in the blooming garden of the castle.
The long black hair that made Aiwen feel a little cordial was curled up high, wearing a silver headband inlaid with six emeralds, and the same drop-shaped earrings that matched the eye color of the opponent.
In addition, her neck, wrists, fingers, belt, and shoes have all kinds of gems and accessories that are priceless at a glance.
However, these jewels do not have the vulgar atmosphere of those nouveau riche to show off their wealth. On the contrary, they are noble and elegant.
But in any case, it is indeed a bit unusual to wore so many jewellery while wandering around in my garden, so that Ivan couldn't help but utter a whisper.
At this moment, as if feeling the gaze cast by the two, the lady looked up and looked towards the fifth floor.
After seeing the owner of his eyes, he even smiled and nodded at Aiwen before turning around and drifting away like a new leaf in spring.
After watching his wife go away, the Marquis sat down again and took a sip of his teacup like a drink.
Now that Ivan has seen it, he did not hide his financial embarrassment, and sighed softly:
"It's not lacking, it's very lacking!"
"Uh...."
But even if I saw it with my own eyes, Ivan would not naively think that the marquise who just seemed inexplicable and familiar would be a "prodigal mother-in-law" who only used the income to pursue luxury accessories.
Because he has confirmed that the owner of the castle-shaped wizard tower of the Orange Leaf Fort is the marquise of "jewelry"!
Even though I have eaten a ditch and grow wise, I will no longer blindly open up spiritual vision to explore the details of others without any certainty.
But only with the naked eyes of a pair of "alchemy school" wizards, he can also see the faint traces of witchcraft processing on the jewelry mainly made of gems of various colors.
Those gems are no longer simple jewelry, but some powerful witchcraft props. The marquise is obviously a powerful wizard who is very proficient in gem witchcraft!
and.
is at least far stronger than himself, and conservatively estimated that he should be the pinnacle of a formal wizard, and maybe even a high-level wizard like the principal of Princeton.
And the Marquis Yuanfan and his wife only have this kind of power and they can stand firm within the sphere of influence of Sirius.
Of course, the strong have the right to speak, and Ivan is also willing to maintain a good relationship with the somewhat unpredictable Amore family.
Even if possible, quietly explore the secrets of the "adventurer's blood" in their family.
So, Ivan pondered for a moment and changed his original plan a bit, and then said to the Marquis who seemed to be really short of money:
"You should have also read the Kingdom’s "Overlord Disqualification Plan". While we are implementing the first step of the "Blood Loss Plan", the second step of the "trade war" can actually be carried out simultaneously."
"Indeed. My staff and I admire the general's wisdom and vision very much, and even the current development strategy of the territory has been deflected due to this."
Of course, people who can bring value to others are also more popular. In addition to this national strategy, the Marquis also wants to hear what Ivan has to say about making money.
"What do you think of this?
The two of us brought together the royal family of East Lunzi to establish a joint trading company. I used all the 15-year patents of the ‘Brigentin’ brig hybrid sailboat and this batch of Anuma slaves to buy shares.
Cooperate with your New World’s No. 1 shipbuilding industry, manufacturing infrastructure, land, and personnel to re-integrate resources.
The new company mainly carried out commercial smuggling activities to the colony of Hilius, shipbuilding and shipping.
Even my privateer fleet can provide private services for merchant ships that are not limited to the company. "
is in Aiwen's vision.
The far sail collar, which has the most developed manufacturing industry and faces the colony of Hilius across the sea, is of course the main force in the current trade war.
Even because the location advantage is faster than the reaction of local businessmen, and this kind of smuggling activity has always existed before the adjustment of the macro strategy of the kingdom, it can be called a familiar road.
After all, the merchants in the Hilius colony are also very realistic. From an economic point of view, there is a supply of more high-quality goods at a lower price. Why not?
just so that the colleagues who came from the triangulation trade of the Hilius mainland can bring more slaves, ivory and other more valuable things.
As for this kind of large-scale smuggling, they can't feel the negative effects on the industrial development of the country.
Even if I can feel it, no one, including Philip II, will care.
"Union Trading Company?"
is not only a powerful knight, the Marquis Yuanfan is also an excellent governor, he can certainly see the benefits of Ewen’s proposal.
The two cooperation can be called a powerful combination, enough to produce a wonderful qualitative change that one plus one is greater than two!
"Then what do you think, besides producing this new type of privateer, should we use to open the colony and even the local market of Hilius?"
Obviously this sentence was exported, and the Marquis had already agreed to Irvine's business plan in his heart.
However, compared to Ai Wen's current power, what he values is obviously Ai Wen's vision.
Even the title has quietly changed unconsciously.
"Goods? Of course cotton textiles!"
Regarding the future development of the United Trading Company, Ivan doesn’t mind to say a little bit more, not to mention that he is just a theorist, and there is still a huge gap between planning and execution.
But there are a large number of staff and retainers in the Marquis's family, but they can solve this problem perfectly.
"We want to analyze the current steam industry development status of Wang Guo and Yuanfanling, and comprehensively consider various existing conditions..."
Although the most developed in the kingdom at this stage is the wool weaving industry, even before the invention of the steam engine, about one-fifth of the country’s population was engaged in this industry.
But it is strictly controlled by government departments, and the old rules are also very tight.
has made clear regulations on the length, width, folding, packing, ingredients in the production process, printing and dyeing, elongation, fuzzing, finishing, etc. of each piece of wool.
In other words, the existing interest groups have seriously hindered the industrialization process of this industry and the joining of latecomers!
has made the production process of this industry rigid and stereotyped, and has become a conservative, lifeless and traditional production department.
Even in the kingdom, the steam industry transformation corresponding to the wool weaving industry is still struggling, and there is no complete set of technologies that can be used.
The cotton textile industry is different, it is a new industrial sector. There are no clear rules and precepts in production, let alone traditional obstacles.
"Alchemy Light" is also the most mature for the manufacture of steam cotton spinning equipment.
Especially for Yuanfanling, it is not suitable for raising sheep, but it is on the cotton belt that traverses the east and west of the New World, and there is sufficient cotton to supply.
can be used as a pillar economic industry of the early colonies.
Then accumulate wealth from the world-leading cotton textile industry as a starting point, and it may even cost more than robbery!
Coal mining, metallurgy, mining, glass, shipbuilding, machinery manufacturing, etc. followed closely, causing chain reactions in various industrial sectors.
From light industry to heavy industry, from working machine to engine, mutually promote and promote each other, and finally form a complete system of machine production.
Through the east wind of the kingdom's development, Yuanfanling has truly taken off!
Snapped! Snapped! Snapped! ...
Hearing that the Marquis could not help applauding at the end, Irving not only answered the question of his main product, but also planned a splendid road for the future development of Yuanfanling in view of the actual situation.
"Your Excellency General, no, old man Ivan, I was really helpless after hearing your words!
In the future, we will be the closest partners, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, you must come to Orange Leaf Castle frequently. "
There seemed to be substantial brilliance on the face of the Marquis to overflow, as if he had seen golden mountains beckoning to him.
If this young man had not been the brigadier general of the kingdom, he would have to invite him to serve as his chief of staff. It would be a rare talent.
stood up, held Aiwen's right hand and shook it vigorously, cooperation was achieved!
is logical.
Then, Ivan, together with the Marquis and his staff, drafted a draft for the establishment of the "Mercury United Trading Company".
As long as the details are improved in the later stage, it can be directly registered and established in Yuanfanling. This group of staff members are the administrative staff of various departments in the colony, and the efficiency is of course fast.
In the draft, Iwen and Marquis Yuanfan each accounted for 40% of the shares in the new company, leaving 20% for Donglunzhi, who was not present at all.
was originally to take them to play together in the face of the royal family, of course, they do not need to participate in the discussion about the internal regulations.
The name of the United Trading Company is derived from the impersonal God of commerce and wealth "Mercury" in the legend of the ancient sacred Lothar Empire. It was decided by the Marquis, which is regarded as the hope for the future of the company.
"Brother Aiwen, to the future of the company, cheers!"
"Cheers!"
