Lord of the People: I rely on cheating for hegemony

Chapter 227 Material Preparation
Since receiving the 15000 gold coins borrowed by Su Yan, the territory of Yi Village is once again in the process of high-speed infrastructure construction, but the focus of this wave of construction is on the coastal area, mainly to build watchtowers, defensive towers and coastal defense weapons. .

On this day, Qu Mao came to the civilian wharf of the small village of Mingang, because it was an emergency meeting, and the heroes and island owners were required to transport the materials to be traded for opening new trade routes to the civilian wharf for loading.

When Qu Mao rushed to the civilian pier outside the small village of Mingang, he found that Su Yan, Sunan, Sir Mrak, and Sylvia Ocean were all at the civilian pier, so Qu Mao asked in astonishment: "Why are you here?" so many people?"

Su Yan said: "My lord, tomorrow is the day you stipulated that the new sea route will be opened for the fleet to set sail, so today we will move the materials that we will bring to the new port city for sale to the ship.

In order to avoid exposing the fact that there are heroes in our caravan, the materials should be placed in the cabin of the sea ship in the form of physical objects.

Now the leaders have started to carry supplies onto the ship. Animal skins and sea salt are carried on the ship by heroes. Now there are monster materials and blank rune stones left. These are not suitable for transporting to the ship by hero backpacks. You can only hire leaders. The people moved. "

Qu Mao nodded and asked, "How are the supplies packed? How long will it take? How many supplies have you prepared?"

Su Yan said: "My lord, my subordinates have arranged for people to bring over 10 units of blank rune stones from Yi Village, which will roughly occupy the storage capacity of two sea ships.

In addition, there are 18 types of Warcraft materials totaling 18000 units. Warcraft materials generally belong to magic materials. At that time, they will go to the magic union in that city to sell them. I hope the magic union can take them all in one go. Otherwise, they can only be sold to wholesalers. It will be much cheaper.

There are 18000 units of Warcraft materials, about to fill the storage capacity of a sea ship.

Furthermore, there is sea salt. The sea salt produced by the fisherman’s small village salt farm plus the sea salt we purchased from Yancheng totals 10 units, which takes up the storage capacity of our four sea-going ships.

There are a total of 70000 units of animal skins gathered by the heroes, and the animal skins will be evenly distributed on the ships. This time we have kept all the small animal skins such as rabbit skins and mountain rat skins. The selling price is too low , It also accounts for the storage capacity of our seagoing ships, so we can't earn much money. "

Qu Mao nodded and said, "Okay, I understand, let's arrange it this way. A total of eight sea ships will be sent there. I hope these supplies can earn 1 gold coins for our Yi Village."

Su Yan smiled and said, "My lord, it should be more than 1 gold coins, right? Blank runestones alone can sell for 15000 gold coins, and 10 units of sea salt can sell for at least 20 gold coins.

The animal hides are all medium and large animal hides with 7 units, and it is estimated that 5000 gold coins can be sold.

The price of the monster materials cannot be estimated for the time being. We can only see how others bid when the time comes. There are a total of 18000 units. The subordinates conservatively estimate that a few thousand gold coins can be sold.The subordinates believe that we can make a profit of more than 2 gold coins in total. "

Sunan shook his head and said, "Miss, we also need to calculate the customs clearance, tax and other expenses, as well as the expenses for our purchase of materials. Your estimate is similar."

Qu Mao said: "Of course, if it's convenient for the local people to purchase over there, even if it's more expensive than Yancheng, you still have to buy it back. Living materials, living tools, production tools, everything we lack on Yidao, you must buy it back, why? Let the ship be filled, or the new city will wonder whether we are a caravan on a long voyage.

But this time, our main purpose is to open up new sea routes, and making money is the secondary purpose, so if you are in the new port city in Sunan, don't be stingy with your hands, and don't save any gold coins that should be spent. "

Sunan said: "Yes, my lord, I understand. But I still apply to bring some gold coins with me. In case we can't sell even discounted materials in the new city, we can bring some materials back anyway. It's not considered too much." What do you think, my lord, that was a waste of time?"

Qu Mao glanced at Yicun's territorial account. In the past few days, the 15000 gold coins that Su Yan borrowed had only more than 5000 left, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, Su Yan and I will make it up for you. Try to add 1000 gold coins to you."

"Sylvia, is the navy on board ready?" Qu Mao continued to ask.

Sylvia said lightly: "My lord, there are 25 sailors for each sea ship, a total of 200 sailors, and each ship is equipped with 5 first-level sailors, 2 second-level ship shooters, and 1 third-level jumping helper, a total of 64 navy soldiers. The warrior and two fourth-order water ghosts followed his subordinates.

In addition, the naval expansion personnel you requested have been recruited. During the sailing period, the subordinates will be handed over to Sir Mrak for three hours of basic formation and physical training every day. "

Sir Mrak saluted and said: "Yes, my lord, the handover of my subordinates and Lord Sylvia has been completed."

Qu Mao thought for a while, and said: "Each ship should add 5 more sailors for backup, if there is any situation, there will be more people.

In addition, the entire fleet will bring two more shuttle boats in case of emergency. "

Sylvia said: "Yes, my lord! These subordinates have already considered it in advance, so you don't need to worry about it.

Tomorrow morning, the subordinates will set off with the fleet and strive to come back as soon as possible. "

Qu Mao said: "Okay, I wish you all the best, but why don't you let me go?"

Sunan continued to explain for a long time, but Sylvia Ocean just walked away with a smile.

Qu Mao turned around and said to Su Yan: "Su Yan, can we consider selling some grain to the new seaport city? After all, Jia Sixie said before that we have a bumper harvest of grain and have a large amount of grain stockpiled.

There is not even a warehouse for storing grain on the empty island. The grain is piled up in the open air, and it will spoil if left for a long time. "

Su Yan said: "My lord, the enemy is about to invade our territory, how can anyone sell food before the war?

The subordinate thinks that we will not sell grain, so you can find a way to get the architectural drawings of the material warehouse or the granary later, the subordinate believes that the adults will definitely get it.

Building a granary to prepare grain is definitely better than selling grain. "

Qu Mao said helplessly: "Okay, then I will find a way to get the architectural drawings of the granary.

By the way, Su Yan, didn't we have three inferior hero recruitment tickets when we opened the treasure chest last time? "

Su Yan said: "Yes, my lord, you put it here, and now there are 5 cards in total.

Because last time you told your subordinates in the warehouse that if there is 1 gold coin in the market selling such inferior hero recruitment coupons, they will help you get them.

After so many days, my subordinates came across a total of two, and I bought them all for you. "

Qu Mao said: "Give it all to me. After Sylvia goes to sea, I will check the situation of the troops and see if I can recruit another hero."

Su Yan nodded, and handed all the five inferior hero recruitment coupons in her backpack to Qu Mao.
