Chapter 198： Last peace

"Hurry up! Put these things on platform two! The materials behind are to be transported to Grecan! Can't delay!" A dispatcher stood on the platform full of goods and looked at the opposite side. Platform number reminded loudly.

Around, some workers are working nervously. They come all the way from Ailan Hill in order to work here and receive more travel bonuses.

The Ailanhill labor law stipulates that all workers of Ailanhill nationality must have corresponding subsidies and bonuses for working overtime on business trips. This is why there are more and more workers in Ailanhill.

If you earn more, you are naturally more respected. Everyone is willing to engage in a decent job. Workers can now be said to be a decent permanent job in Ailan Hill.

As long as you can apprenticeship, you will have the opportunity to pass the assessment and review, and finally use the magic ball of knowledge to be promoted to engineer. Then there are engineer job allowances that can be taken, and children can also receive a better education.

Of course, I heard that there are also unsatisfied fools. After being promoted to an engineer, they steal the technical data of the Ailan Hill Empire, sell them, and give them to other countries, but most of these people have no good end.

I heard that the most typical one is called Schreck, who was sentenced to death, and the whole family was exiled to the prairie empire where conditions were difficult and there was no technical work...

But I have to say that any idea that wants to control one's leading technology cannot be built on the basis of technology blockade. Therefore, being self-proclaimed will only stop yourself from making progress. Only continuous innovation and development is the best way to stay ahead.

Regardless of the source of the technology, anyway, there have been some industrial shadows of Ailan Hill in many places recently. Many magic empires have begun mass production of various weapons, and some can even manufacture machinery.

After buying power generation equipment, these countries began to imitate them on a large scale, building power plants to use electricity, and developing their own industrial foundations with Ailan Hill's elimination technology. The world is also progressing, especially when these countries have bad intentions.

Recently, the Magic Empire also has its own powered vehicle, which is a vehicle that burns magic spar energy as its power. They are not comfortable, they are more like early classic cars. However, many technologies are borrowed from Ailan Hill, including the shock-absorbing structure and rubber tires.

In short, intentionally or unintentionally, Ailan Hill's technology is spreading. Many merchants are sparing no effort to promote Ailan Hill's civilian technology, and these civilian technologies have also improved the military production capacity of the surrounding areas in some respects.

Of course, this is also beneficial. For example, on both sides of the railway that traverses the Holy Demon Empire, many villages and cities have begun their own industrialization. After all, importing Allanhill products requires foreign exchange, and exporting some products to fill some of the trade deficit is also an inevitable choice for a country.

Because of this, in order to save costs, Ailan Hill gave tents, footwear, soap towels, toothbrushes, gloves, and even armed and steel helmets to the Holy Demon Empire for production. Anyway, it is produced here and shipped to Grecan, the price is cheaper.

Therefore, the towns of the Holy Demon Empire on both sides of the railway began to prosper and lively. Although the pollution caused by burning coal was annoying to the aboriginals of the Holy Demon Empire, the real money and silver subsidies of the Holy Demon Empire also allowed them to improve their own. living condition.

"Hoist those things into the car! Don't be too careful! Those are all bandages! Don't be afraid of bumping!" The dispatcher on the platform held the logbook and recorded the supplies that were just loaded, and then shouted loudly into the distance. Tao.

The platform he is responsible for is the busiest one nearby. There is always a large amount of materials being transported here, and then other materials are transferred to Grecan. The materials unloaded here are exported to the Holy Demon Empire. The goods loaded and transported here to Grecan are exported from the Holy Demon Empire to Ailan Hill.

As for the magic materials and precious metals such as gold and silver transported back from Griken, they will be sent directly to Veronza through here for the magicians over there to improve themselves.

Fighting is nothing more than making money. Although Ailan Hill didn't make much money in this war, it was not worthless.

At least Grecan will provide a large amount of precious metals and magic materials to reward Ailan Hill for coming forward at critical moments.

"Yo! John is in charge! You are here." An old man from the Holy Demon Empire walked over with a plain robes and smiled, greeted very diligently.

The long-term relationship between two people is also familiar and can no longer be familiar. This old man is an elder in a nearby town, a character similar to the mayor. There are two factories producing footwear and socks in his small town, and he has obtained the qualification to produce military supplies, so he often comes to this small station to deliver his goods, and he is familiar with everyone up and down the train station.

The manager who called John put away the record book, put it under his armpit, and greeted the international friends in front of him with a smile.

In John's opinion, the people here are no different from the people in his hometown. It's all the same life, all the same ordinary. Except for occasionally hearing a few magicians out of them, everything else is almost scarce.

At the earliest, these locals looked down on the outside Ailan Hill railway workers. But with the passage of time, there are not many barriers between the trade exchanges. Many mortals working in the railway station have been to nearby towns as guests, and there are also many young people in the nearby towns who come to the railway station to find various jobs.

"This batch of goods has passed the quality inspection! Be careful when you ship it! The top-quality leathers, the feet to wick away perspiration, are all the mountain animal skins that are specialty in the north! The quality is good!" The old man babbled. , And told John to take care of his products.

John took a pair of beautiful and sturdy leather shoes from the other's hand, and his face was full of smiles and replied: "Master, you are too polite, why didn't I find you a good car?"

The old man smiled even more on his face, nodded and thanked: "I want it, I want it! You kid I know loyal and honest when I look at it. Old kid I like to make friends like you! I have time to go to my house for a cup of tea, my little granddaughter. Ah, I keep talking about you."

Can you stop talking? The last time I went there was no great gift, so I got some toffee from the non-munitions supplies and took it to the old man's house.

As a result, which kid doesn’t like toffee? On weekdays, you can't eat this "special product" of Ailan Hill, because the Holy Demon Empire strictly restricts the import of various Ailan Hill materials.

After all, the Holy Demon Empire’s trade with Ailan Hill has always been a deficit, and they can only use products such as the Knowledge Magic Ball to fill the huge deficit. Therefore, the precious import share is reserved for machinery and the technology that must be introduced. How can there be such a reason as to waste to import toffee?

The equipment for the production of toffee also has technology. In the eyes of the senior officials of the Holy Demon Empire, it is also a thing of low priority. The Devil Empire is hard to see.

On the other hand, it can also be seen how great the improvement in the living standards of the Mortal Empire is: the Mortal Empire that was previously owned by the Magic Empire did not, but now the situation has been completely reversed in Ailan Hill.

The current situation is that because of the increase in productivity, the people's living standards have begun to greatly improve in Ailan Hill, but the surrounding countries have not achieved this step yet, so it has been much slower.

The capital accumulated before, as Ailan Hill won the war, as the subsequent plundering of products began to decrease, the state of the magic empire's superiority has been broken, and the generous life naturally no longer exists, but what follows is Poor and low productivity was exposed and became the most fundamental contradiction.

"Wait for my holiday in a few days! You have seen these days... I am really too busy here." John pointed to the platform not far away and said, "I heard that Gricken has played there. Very fierce..."

"I know, I know, there is fierce fighting over there, so we can buy a lot..." The old man carried his hands behind his back, looking like a warmonger: "If you want me to say, we should send the army to support, right?"

He had a good calculation, as long as it was to support Greken's army, someone would pay for it. His shoes and socks are all daily consumables. The more the army sells, the better. By then, he will make a lot of money, which is of course a good thing.

Therefore, he can be said to be the type of person who sincerely hopes that the Holy Demon Empire will participate in the war, and is much more active than many people.

"Hi...Sooner or later! Maybe in a few days, you will use this railway to send your troops to Grecan." John replied casually and began to command the crane around him. Up. At this time of the day, I was so busy that I didn't even have time to eat a bite, and there was really no time to chat.

The old man watched for a while, then strolled away on his own. It's not that he really doesn't have anything to do. He just came here to communicate with each other and maintain his contacts on a daily basis. Then he will be able to use it.

He walked out of the train station with his hands on his back, and saw the workers working along the railway, as well as cars full of goods coming and going, and beasts moving mountains.

These transportation vehicles are crowded together, the sound of horns and shouts one after another, and the busy railway station, huge cranes, foggy locomotives, and long carriages form a vivid picture. In this picture, there is a kind of beauty, called tranquility.

Of course, this may also be the last peace.
