Transcendent Journey

Lower Republic, Antwerp.

bang!

The wooden door of the tavern was slammed open, and a rough silhouette waved an order form in his hand, rushing in fiercely.

Without waiting for the eyes to adjust to the slightly dim indoor environment, he opened his mouth and shouted eagerly:

“Mr. James, come! Come! Are there any tulip bulbs? Sark Empire is here. A big order!”

The middle-aged businessman who was hiding in a corner of the pub, sitting around drinking with a few of his companions, hurriedly put down the wine glass in his hand when he saw someone coming:

“It’s Mr. Fitch. The common varieties that I harvested in September here are 400kg, and there are ten treasures. The price…”

Currently there are two main types of tulip trading on the market. : Ordinary varieties and treasures.

Ordinary varieties are priced by weight, while treasures are priced by head. The price between them is even greater than the difference between copper fur and Golden Lion.

But Mr. Fitch who rushed in didn’t even listen to the price, and waved his hand: “I want it all! Where are the goods? Delivery immediately!”

When the business came to the door, naturally, he couldn’t care about drinking any more. The tulip merchant named James hurriedly dropped his glass and followed the other party and rushed out.

The remaining businessmen who belonged to the Tulip Guild continued to drink and chat.

“It’s another fortune. What a pity! Recently, the price of tulips continues to rise, but the goods in our hands are almost out.

And whether it’s a treasure or a The breeding cycle of ordinary varieties is really too long. No matter how high the price in the market, our supply in a short period of time will have a limit.”

“If I knew the market early The market is just fine. Even if the price is premium, I have to purchase more in September.”

“Oh! Who said no!”

All of you here are experts, It is very clear that there are only two ways to reproduce tulips, one is to reproduce through seeds, and the other is to reproduce through tulip rhizomes.

If propagated by seeds, it will take 7-12 years to get an ideal bulb. It is never flowers that are traded in the bulk tulip market, but bulbs that are easy to store and transport.

Corm propagation is simpler.

The bulb of a tulip is like an onion. As long as it is planted in the ground, bright flowers will bloom in April and May every year, and the flowering period is only about ten days.

In September of each year, new bulbs will grow from the roots of tulips, and the new bulbs will at most double their size when they are planted. If it is priced by weight, the value also doubles.

Therefore, new products will not be launched until September next year to meet the growing demand for tulips from customers.

“Hey! Guys, I have an idea to share with you.”

Suddenly, one of the tulip merchants in the room spoke up and saw that everyone else was watching After coming here, I said mysteriously and secretively:

“Everyone, the biggest problem we face now is the imbalance between the supply and demand of tulips.

However, if we put the’production for next year’ “Exit”, pay attention! It is the “production in September next year”, which will be put on the market in the form of “guild standard sales and purchase agreement”…

Make a clear agreement and wait until the tulip bulbs are harvested At that time, delivery must be made at the current price. Isn’t that the best of both worlds?”

Others were still confused at first and didn’t understand how things still in the ground could be traded, but wait After slowly figuring out what he meant, the eyes of a table of people suddenly lit up.

Unconsciously lowered their voices and excitedly said:

“This can be done, seconded!”

“Secondary!”

“…”

Although they don’t have this concept yet, the first “futures contract” in this world is destined to be released soon.

One thought of heaven, one thought of hell, oh, the great “Golden Lord” bless!

……

The downtown cathedral of St. Ivan has now been renamed “St. Ivan cathedral”.

An independent temple was filled with students of all ages, and the professor in black uniform knocked on the blackboard:

“Come, let’s review the previous lesson. Based on Economics, which student tells you what are the factors that determine the price of a commodity?

Well, Mr. Osmond held the highest hand, let’s talk about it.”

A young man with short brown hair stood up excitedly and talked in the eyes of everyone:

“There are four main factors that determine the price. The first is cost, which determines the bottom line of the price; The second is the relationship between supply and demand. The stronger the demand, the less the supply, the higher the price;

The third is the information environment in which buyers and sellers are in. The more information buyers have, the more cost-effective products they can obtain ; The fourth is efficiency, the fewer intermediate links…”

The “Garrett National University” located in the suburbs is still under construction, but in line with the swift and decisive concept of the Grand Duke, the first batch The student enrollment work has already been completed.

The faculty and staff overcame hardware difficulties and borrowed part of the rooms of the “Black Iron Cross Church” cathedral as classrooms, and started teaching ahead of time.

At this stage, it is positioned as the “national university” of Duchy’s highest institution, with a total of seven liberal arts (including literature, history, philosophy, and art), law, finance, education, science and engineering, agriculture and forestry, and medicine. Subject category.

Among them, science and engineering, medicine, liberal arts, and finance are the main subjects, with both industry, university and research.

Moreover, the national university has entered the preparatory list of the pan-continent organization “Red Maple Leaf Academy Alliance”. According to the tradition of the Academy Alliance, some outstanding talents are outside the regular disciplines and have the opportunity to be introduced into the path of transcendent .

Although the transcendent power on the new continent is far less mysterious than the relatively peaceful old continent, it is also a power that most ordinary persons can expect in their lifetime, both because of knowledge and resources.

In addition.

Although the “National University” has been established for a short period of time, the faculty is already among the best in the world.

Art, history, science and engineering, agriculture and forestry, and medicine are all traditional superior projects of witches. The witches who come to Duchy from the “Truth School” can be called like a fish back in water.

Although the school conditions need to be improved, the witches never thought that they would be able to just and honorable in and out of the True God church. The priests also welcomed each other with smiles. The spiritual joy is not comparable. The material salary is slightly different.

The wizards of the “Mechanical Immortal School” have given tremendous support to the “Engineering”. Even if the transcendent part is removed, the rest is the most cutting-edge dry goods of this era.

Taylor Court Academecian of the “Visari School”, Leon, the potion master, and Ivan students of the “Life Tree School”, all have profound accomplishments in the fields of medicine or agriculture and forestry.

Even in the financial sector, Ivan also captured Ilia Kingdom, the heir to the cream of the crop of big capitalists.

The finale is Ivan, the Great Wizard and Grand Duke, who acts as the Principal, with a far-sighted vision that transcends the times.

“Garrett National University” has the foundation to become a world-class university.

Of course.

While improving the quality of the population, the pursuit of quantity has not been put down. The performance appraisal of the “Mother of Water” Mellow began in August of last year, and has been perfected in August of this year. Great goal of 5% net growth.

In addition to the government’s macro guidance in this process, the Neimans, who are mostly male, and the Atrians, who are mostly female, are also rapidly merging.

Duchy is striding forward towards the grand blueprint of a single-subject nation.

Ivan also gave Count Milan Snett a new appointment as the Huron son-in-law, as the Minister of National Integration and Chief Astrologer of Duchy.

At the same time, thanks to the continuous urging of the “rest tree” in the inland areas on a large scale, they have completely transformed the interior of the continent into a state where the birth of Spirit Physique is forbidden.

In addition to the werewolf’s full culling of the existing Spirit Physique ghosts, it may not take half a year before Duchy’s “Westward Project” can be officially launched.

In addition to the inherent “Black Sea Coastal Area”, “Star Fragmentation Sea Coastal Area”, and “Elbert Mountain” which is full of gold mines.

In addition, the “Upper Itaska Valley” on the south bank of the Six Dalian Lakes in the central part, the lower reaches of the central rivers to the “Lower Itaska Valley” on the southern coastline, and the area that crosses the main basin of the Itaska River The “Middle and Western Great Plains” can also start the first phase of development.

Start from the most essential and livable part of each area, and fully explore the potential of this land with points and areas.

When the time comes, don’t say that the population growth rate is 5%, it is 10%, and some places can be resettled at 15%.

In addition.

With the victory of the international war, the international status of Tulip and Duchy has been steadily improved, and a large number of investments and personnel have continuously poured into Duchy from all over the world.

Ivan has also firmly grasped the people’s livelihood field and began to open up the free market in other economic fields.

He knows very well that if the national economy is not to become a stagnant water, it is necessary to give full play to the subjective initiative of all people and maintain the basic rules of the game for those who are capable and who are mediocre.

These students in class are one of his guarantees for maintaining the established rules and his own dominance, or they are the royal party firmly united by the monarch Ivan.

Every student is an extension of his dominance, and as the future spreads to all walks of life, his dominance will reach the lowest level of Duchy.

Continent country “Garrett duchy” has suddenly become one of the emerging countries with the most development potential and competitiveness in this era.

In the steadily advancing construction of various aspects of the country, time suddenly came to the spring of 192 years of Haiyuan calendar.

White Swan Castle.

“That’s it. The ghosts that are obviously from ancient civilizations have almost blocked the entire outer space. If we don’t break through their defenses, we don’t want to leave Herrag.

The most important thing is that we don’t even know which ancient civilization they came from? What is the intention of blocking the planet? Are they still uncontrolled?…”

Ivan and finally accompanied the silk Geros, who had returned from Falitis by Tefanie, sat opposite each other, and there was a fist sized on the table between them, which looked like a weird wooden “walnut kernel”.

It is the core of the “Surfer” brought back from space.

Ivan knows that this should be some kind of “chip”-like controller, but in the absence of comparison information, it is not easy to interpret it.

But seeing that Jeros, who has been frowning since seeing this thing, squeezed his forehead, slowly said:

“this thing…maybe I know where it comes from.”

Slap——!

Jeroth snapped his fingers as he spoke, and [Witchcraft Garden·Uluk Temple] opened.

“I may not have told you that the third era of ancient civilization, the Muria Civilization, is best at biotechnology!”
