Terra Martial God and Merit System
Page 286
As soon as the deal was announced, all the representatives were eager to try it out.
Who doesn't want to make money? Business is the most profitable industry. If Colombia can make money, why can't they?
If I can reach a good contract, my trip will be worthwhile. The treatment after returning home will definitely not be bad.
Lin Yuxia took the opportunity to find the representative of Rem Billiton and convinced him in a few words. A contract was immediately signed.
"Minister Lin..."
"Minister Lin, may I ask you..."
"Forest....."
Representatives immediately gathered around. If the Terra Union showed strength yesterday, today it showed a unique gentleness.
Signing a business contract with Terra United would not only make money, but also maintain peace - after all, they couldn't kill the person they were trading with, right?
Of course, not all representatives present have the ability to trade.
The representative of Iberia had a bitter face. Their country had fallen into decline since the Great Silence decades ago. Now they had no money and no resources. There was really no way to trade.
He had no way, but Lin Yuxia had a way.
She took the initiative to come up and told him her plan.
Ursus is not close to the ocean and has no marine fish resources. This is a very large market. Therefore, they are willing to invest in building a factory in Iberia to process marine fish and then sell them.
As long as the Iberian government approves, they will pay taxes on time and provide numerous jobs.
The Iberian representative nodded repeatedly after hearing this.
Their economy has collapsed and any possible help is needed now.
The Terra Union was willing to do this, so they naturally welcomed it. After thinking about it, they did not find any harm, so the Iberian representative agreed.
With Lin Yuxia taking the lead, the atmosphere among the representatives became a little more harmonious.
With the signing of a commercial contract between Casimir and Colombia, many representatives began to communicate.
The original international situation in Taixiela was the law of the jungle. Most of the transactions between countries were between neighboring countries, on a small scale, and spontaneously initiated by the people.
Now when the representatives communicated with each other, they found that there were indeed many areas where they could learn from each other and make up for their shortcomings. So the deal was naturally reached.
After a whole morning, they all felt a little unsatisfied. Finally, Tallulah announced that they would take a break and continue in the afternoon.
The Grand Tutor didn't expect Tallulah to do this.
Looking at the current situation, it may be possible for the so-called "International League" to be established.
Of course, the Master did not discuss any business this morning. The question was, "Our Yan country is vast and rich in resources, and we don't lack anything."
He suspected that Terra United had a conspiracy.
Is there? Yes, there is.
This matter was discussed by Tallulah and Lin Yuxia, and the initial goal was indeed to make money. But they found that in addition to making money, they could do other things.
Propaganda warfare is also an important part of war. By connecting this land together through commerce, the Terra Union will be able to promote its ideas more conveniently.
Tallulah believed that the people of various countries had sharp eyes, and with their reminders, they would be able to discover the true face of the rulers.
In the future, Tallulah will only fight wars that are almost certain to win. Now that Luo Chen is not around, she must be cautious in everything.
The tutor was still thinking when Lin Yuxia came over.
She invited the master to visit the Saint Jun Castle.
The Grand Tutor vaguely guessed that the other party had other plans, but he also wanted to see the true situation of Saint Jun Castle, so he readily agreed.
So they temporarily left the meeting room and got on the sightseeing bus.
The Grand Tutor saw that there were actually quite a few places under construction throughout Saint Jun Castle, and that many existing buildings were being demolished.
As the original "foot of the emperor", the entire Saint Jun Castle has the most nobles in Ursus. Various illegal constructions are everywhere. Now that Terra United has taken over, the first thing is naturally to demolish all these things that symbolize the old times.
Even when passing by a cemetery, the master saw workers coming in and out. After asking, he learned that they were archaeologists who were conducting protective excavations on the tombs of successive emperors of Ursus.
Lin Yuxia's calm tone gave the master a chill.
Protective excavation? No, this is clearly an excavation to flog the corpse!
The vehicle drove through the streets of Saint Jun Castle, and the Master discovered a characteristic while observing.
Being able to support so many buildings to start construction at the same time says a lot.
For example... these buildings all need steel bars, which means that Terra Union's steel production is not low. Another example is that so many workers were transferred...
In short, judging from the current situation, the Terra Union is a vibrant place.
Outside the city, this scene became even more obvious.
The endless plains were all cultivated fields. Rumbling tractors were running around, but no busy people were seen. All you could see was fields, and more fields.
This beautiful scene made the Taifu feel scared.
There is a lot of land in Yan Country, but there has never been a land that is so complete and has so many machines.
Where did the saved people go?
"Isn't the scenery nice?" Lin Yuxia suddenly asked, "Master, are you curious about something?"
“Why do we have so much food?”
Chapter 348: Acceleration
Why is there so much food?
Of course, the Grand Tutor was curious about this matter.
The Terra Alliance fought wars in the south and the north to occupy all the land of Ursus, which required a large amount of later supplies.
Modern warfare is fought with logistics.
The Taifu had heard many speculations about the Terra Union's ability to produce large quantities of food continuously.
For example, they have an extremely high-yield potato crop that allows them to produce food on a large scale.
But now seeing this picture of machines and countryside, Taifu feels that it is because of the powerful industrial system that Terra Union has achieved such a level.
But...what does it mean now that Lin Yuxia mentioned this?
"Master, do you know something called fertilizer?" Lin Yuxia asked indifferently.
"Fertilizer..." This kind of thing naturally exists on the land of Terra.
It’s just that because the technology tree has been in the wrong direction, the effect of their fertilizers has not been very strong and the price is quite high.
According to the Master, many Yan Country villages still use farmyard manure. Could it be that... Terra United has a cheap fertilizer that can be mass-produced?
The Master actually guessed it right.
Terra United really has this thing.
After Luo Chen explained the particularity of the current Terran technology system, the Terran Union researchers began to try to review all the technologies to see if they could find anything that was missing.
Because Tallulah completely copied Luo Chen's approach and attacked authority in the scientific and academic circles, anyone who was a researcher, regardless of their rank, could speak freely in discussions.
Therefore, the scientific research atmosphere in Terra Union is very good. And the basic material of this fertilizer was discovered in military manufacturing.
After continuous exploration, researchers discovered a way to mass-produce cheap fertilizers through chemical methods.
This method requires a large number of containers as reactors. The military and them had a quarrel because the reactors needed to be airtight, and the excellent steel used to make them could also be used to make cannons.
In the end, it was Tallulah who made the final decision. At that time, the war was about to end, and the focus was still on people's livelihood.
After the fertilizer plant was successfully built, a steady supply of fertilizer was produced.
These fertilizers have also become another way to attract the wild Ursus villages besides high-yield potatoes.
Even because of the large-scale supply of chemical fertilizers to state-owned farms, many farmers who had originally been stubborn gave up their own work and plunged into the torrent of history.
"We are interested in trading a batch of fertilizers with Yan Country, and we can offer free trials." Lin Yuxia continued, "If the investment is generous, we will consider helping you build a factory..."
"....." The Master opened his mouth but said nothing.
He couldn't just brush this off by saying "Yan Country is vast and rich in resources".
Things like fertilizers...if they can really increase grain production and are cheap enough...then they will definitely shock the entire Yan Country.
Even if he refused now, the higher-ups would find ways to continue contacting Terra Union.
This is a conspiracy.
A complete conspiracy.
Instead of leaving this matter to a stranger...it would be better for the Master to do it himself now!
But...he still didn't figure it out.
Why did Terra United do this?
"This matter can be considered." The Grand Tutor took a deep breath and replied.
"You need to tell me the effect and price of this fertilizer..."
"Master, you have a good eye." Lin Yuxia said with a smile, "Then please come with me to the farm to listen to what everyone has to say."
Lin Yuxia and the tutor spent the entire afternoon wandering around the newly built farm around Shengjun Castle.
The Master saw many incredible things, and his worries gradually grew stronger.
Of course, he also saw the powerful effects of fertilizers.
That wasn't uttered in gibberish, but was revealed in the farmers' excited and shocked expressions.
The Grand Master didn't believe that Terra United could find so many actors with superb skills and perfect disguises.
So this is all true.
What's more, Lin Yuxia also agreed to give the first batch of fertilizers free trials. After the trials, the details of the subsequent transactions will be discussed. Even the factory and production methods can be sold.
Even the Grand Tutor couldn't help but be moved.
But he was calm enough after all, and only verbally expressed that he would think about it.
Lin Yuxia didn't force her, and after finishing her afternoon browsing, she went back.
"This man is worthy of being the Taifu of Yan State. He still hasn't given in even at this time." Lin Yuxia came to Tallulah's office and lay directly on the sofa.
She was exhausted today, but she had negotiated quite a few contracts, many of which could bring obvious benefits.
It’s this Yan State’s Grand Tutor...who is really too troublesome.
"He will accept it." Tallulah said calmly, "Even if he doesn't accept it, once he realizes that it's wrong, the nobles of Yan Country won't be able to help themselves."
"You are becoming more and more like Luo Chen now." Lin Yuxia looked at Tallulah.
This plan encountered a lot of resistance when it was launched, many of which were from senior officials in the Ministry of Commerce, including Lin Yuxia herself.
For them, selling fertilizers is fine, but selling factories... and even technology. Is this...
To them, the fertilizer factory was like a money-printing machine. As long as they produced, they would have no worries about sales. Now that Tallulah wanted them to do this, it was like asking them to die.
Faced with overwhelming opposition, Tallulah did the same thing as Luo Chen did—she used her own prestige to suppress it.
This kind of behavior, which can be called "dictatorial", appeared in Tallulah.
Of course, facing the top executives of the Ministry of Commerce, Tallulah still invited them one by one to meet and explained in detail the reasons for doing so. She did not run away after speaking like Luo Chen did.
That's how Lin Yuxia was convinced by her.
"A bag of fertilizer sold from us will be exploited by at least seven people before it reaches the hands of Yan country's people."
"Especially the gentry in various parts of Yan Country. These people are the small nobles of Ursus, and they are very ruthless. In the end, it is very likely that small farmers will not be able to use the fertilizer, but the big landlords will use it crazily."
"The final result is land annexation..."
"Even if the technology is sold, what does it matter? Not to mention that our Terra Union is already one step ahead of others, and the fertilizer plant will definitely produce more in the future. And the technology is controlled by the corrupt class of Yan Country - even if fertilizer is produced, they will only do it for profit."
"These people are just a bunch of short-sighted guys. They are no different from the Ursus nobles we killed!"
Tallulah’s words were very clear, and Lin Yuxia agreed very much.
The Yan State was controlled by a large number of gentry, who were the small nobles and landlords of Ursus.
In the cleanup of the Terra Union, nine out of ten small nobles in Ursus slipped through the net. By analogy with Yan Country... we can completely infer what the bottom layer looks like.
