Lord of the Misty World

Chapter 432 Economic Development
The western border of Qinghe Kingdom.

On this border, most areas have built a strict line of defense consisting of various sentry towers, bunkers, dark forts, small fortresses, barbed wire, trenches, minefields, radar stations and other facilities.

After confirming the border between the two sides with the Ming Dynasty, the Qinghe Kingdom successively stationed two field army regiments and one hundred border defense regiments on this nearly [-]-kilometer border.

The Ming Dynasty is the most powerful force among the opponents that the Qinghe Kingdom has encountered today. The entire country not only has the same population as the Qinghe Kingdom, but also has millions of well-trained troops.

The supplies of these armies are also various firearms and armored vehicles.

The technology of the Ming Dynasty was built on its increasingly developed steam technology.A steam engine essentially boils water and drives the engine to run with power. In the Qinghe Kingdom, some machines also use steam engines.

But in the Ming Dynasty, its steam engine developed to an extremely high level, and according to the ability of strange things, although the steam engine looks like a steam engine, it has reached another level with its development.

In the Ming Dynasty, a special alloy metal was developed. This metal has a very high camp and can withstand huge pressure. It is used as the material of the pressure chamber of the steam engine to make the steam engine more powerful.

The Ming Dynasty also developed a material liquefaction technology. For those combustible materials, whether it is coal, oil, wood, or even corpses, etc., after liquefaction, the frontier city is highly flammable liquid.

The craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty stored the produced liquid in high-pressure steel tanks, which were easy to carry and could also be used as steam engines to refill at any time.

The Ming Dynasty came from a parallel world on the earth, where Zhu Biao, the son of Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty, did not die, and Zhu Xiongying, the son of Zhu Biao, succeeded to the throne smoothly, so the foundation of the Ming Dynasty was stable, and the bureaucracy was inherited from Zhu Yuanzhang's ruling methods suppress.

Later, the entire empire merged into the world of mist, and the Nanjing area as the capital was connected with the nearby Huguang, Henan, Zhili provinces and some other areas.

At this time, it was the jade seal in the hands of the emperor Zhu Xiongying that turned into a strange object, stabilizing the surrounding land and bringing the ability of strange objects.

With Zhu Xiongying's rule, steam technology began to be implemented, and as the fog merged again and again, the technology became more and more important, and the steam technology became more and more diverse.

With the research of steam technology by the master craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty, the efficiency of fuel utilization can reach half.

Just like this, through the high-efficiency steam engine and portable fuel storage, steam rifles and large steam cannons appeared in the Ming Dynasty.

Then there were steam cars, steam tanks, steam armored vehicles, and then steam trains, as well as large steam airships and steam fighters.

In addition, with the victory of the Ming Dynasty, some other abilities were plundered from other misty territories.

After seeing the fighting power of the fighters, the craftsmen developed a steam-powered armor for it. This armor has thick armor, powered by superb steam technology, and uses powerful fighters as operators. A steam mecha is A big killer on the battlefield.

In this time of fog fusion, the Ming Dynasty fell into a stalemate in the original foggy land. Wanting to seek a breakthrough, they issued orders to the border combat troops through radio technology, and quickly occupied a large area of ​​no man's land.

However, due to the slow mobilization of various internal troops, the guard troops in the border area only occupied a piece of land with an area of ​​one province.

Moreover, some new forces have been encountered around, among which the Qinghe Kingdom is the one that the Ming Dynasty attaches the most importance to.

A land as vast as his own, also has a large population, and in that legion, there are weapons and equipment similar to his own troops.

Therefore, the treaty was signed, and the battle will not be fought for the time being.

And as the border commercial city brought by the covenant is being established, according to the requirements of both sides, each side will build half of the city, and the two sides will build the city wall to the border line.

The city walls on both sides are closed to form a large city. At that time, the caravans of both sides will enter from the entrances of their respective cities, and then conduct trade in the cities, and then return with their goods.

But now, the cities on both sides have been built, Qinghe Kingdom has been half built, with a length of [-] kilometers and a width of [-] kilometers. Various shops and large warehouses have been built in sequence.

There is also a united guard unit, as well as a resident of the city administration.

The Ming Dynasty on the opposite side, looking at the foundation of the Qinghe Kingdom, also felt that it could not lag behind others, so it also followed the scale of the Qinghe Kingdom, [-] kilometers long and [-] kilometers wide.

Now the entire city has been perfected, and the internal buildings are roughly completed. In the Qinghe Kingdom, basically all the merchants know about the establishment of this trading city.

When the city was built, railways and roads were also built, and various rune vehicles arrived at a county town near the trade city, where they entered the trade city by road.

Moreover, the Commerce Department of the Qinghe Kingdom and the Commerce Department of the Ming Kingdom clarified their respective currency exchanges.

The Qinghe Kingdom uses rune currency, while the other side uses gold, silver and copper coins, which can be exchanged for each other. For this reason, the Qinghe Kingdom also established a bank in the trade city.

There is a large amount of gold and silver circulating in the Ming Dynasty as currency. For the Qinghe Kingdom, these are controlled items. After all, the excellent conductive materials of gold and silver are scarce in the Qinghe Kingdom.

If there is no restriction, if these merchants buy gold and silver in the Ming Dynasty, they will form a reseller, and if the Ming Dynasty controls silver, then they will exchange a small amount of silver for a large amount of goods in the Qinghe Kingdom, just like Blood sucking in general.

For this reason, during the construction of the trade city, the General Administration Office released a new material, which can be compared to silver material, making silver less precious.

In the Qinghe Kingdom, with the expansion of the territory and the expansion of the entire foggy land, the spiritual energy density inside the entire foggy land increased, so that in certain areas with dense spiritual energy, a kind of spiritual energy containing a lot of spiritual energy gradually formed. Lingshi mines.

Lingshi ore, a kind of ore with high purity energy, has a white jade color due to the infusion of spiritual energy. The higher the purity, the more pure white it appears.

A spirit stone contains a lot of energy inside. If it is a cultivation force, it is the perfect cultivation material.

But within the Qinghe Kingdom, there is a spiritual power storage unit, which has a similar function, so spiritual stones are also used as a special mineral.

According to the research institute's research, after using the spiritual power in it, the material of the spirit stone itself is an excellent energy-conducting material.

Moreover, a Lingshi mine is worth tens of millions of tons, and the gentleman also discovered mineral veins of tens of millions of tons in the Qinghe Kingdom.

As for the follow-up research on spirit stones by the scientific research department, those spirit stones with good purity can be crushed and mixed with copper ore to form a material that is no less than silver. For this material, the research institute named it spirit copper.

The scale of copper mines and spirit stone mines far exceeds the silver mines discovered. This is the case. The large-scale supply of spirit copper materials has caused the price of silver in the Qinghe Kingdom to drop sharply. However, because of the value of silver itself, it is still the best. Therefore, it is still under control, and private individuals are not allowed to hold silver metal.

Moreover, with the expansion of Qinghe Kingdom's territory, large population, and industrial development, the speed of Qinghe Kingdom's coinage gradually failed to keep up with the speed of production materials, and the currency within Qinghe Kingdom became tighter.

As time goes by, this phenomenon is getting more and more serious.However, with the development of these years, Qinghe Kingdom has also reserved a group of economic talents, and also has practical experience in controlling banks.

After annexing a large area of ​​land to the west, the Qinghe Kingdom needs a large amount of capital investment, and the rune currency no longer has this amount.

At this time, in order to ensure the money supply, the Central Bank of Qinghe Kingdom began to prepare banknotes, special paper, special printing process, special ink, and special anti-counterfeiting patterns were all designed.

Various processes are ready, starting from the most basic dime, and then to a higher level of yuan, one yuan is the value of a copper coin.

Then there are two yuan, five yuan, ten yuan, 20 yuan, 50 yuan, and one hundred yuan. Each currency has its own delicacy.

After the hairstyle currency, the copper coins and rune iron coins that were originally under the rune copper coin and the rune gold coin began to be withdrawn, not in the hair style, and open recycling.

In the Qinghe Kingdom, banknotes began to be printed, and corresponding rules and regulations began to be established.No shop may refuse to use banknotes for any reason, and at the same time, various official departments began to issue banknotes.

All government-run factories have to accept banknotes, and at the same time, various restaurants, shops, hotels, etc. under the Lord's Mansion have begun to accept banknotes.

As for the people of the Qinghe Kingdom, because of Di Feng's lofty reputation, the people consciously obeyed the currency use orders issued by His Majesty the King, so the newly issued banknotes circulated quickly and quickly spread throughout the kingdom.

At this time, the construction of the trade city was also completed and started to be used. The first time, each chamber of commerce quickly rented stores and warehouses.

A large number of materials carried by each are transported here, such as glass products, paper, rune household appliances, rune cold weapons and so on.

Moreover, the Chamber of Commerce of the Ming Dynasty also brought porcelain, silk, steam products, and other items. So far, the trade between the two parties has begun. On the first day, a large number of goods were traded, and both parties received a huge sum of money. taxation.

Moreover, just the rent of stores and warehouses in the trade city is a big income a day, which is a very good thing for Qinghe Kingdom.

The trade city is progressing smoothly, both sides have seen the big income, and the trade city will not be destroyed in a short time, and the war will not start in a short time.

And occupying such a large chassis, Qinghe Kingdom also started a new round of development.
