After the morning light dissipated the darkness, the sea tide collar woke up at a very fast speed and entered a state of full speed operation.

The work and rest time of most workers is like this:

10 minutes breakfast, 15 minutes on the road, arrived at the factory before 8 o'clock, and then went to work, lunch at 12 o'clock, lunch break for half an hour, work at 1 o'clock in the afternoon, dinner at 5 o'clock, then work until 8 o'clock in the evening, and finally off work.

This is a normal shift. Many factories still have night shifts due to a large number of orders. The most typical example is a weapon manufacturing factory. They have entered a two-shift state, which has lasted for 2 months.

Every worker in Haichaoling has their work and rest time as punctual as a clock. In their view, everything is busy but full of hope, just like the morning sun every morning.

In this ignorant era, this scene can only be seen in the highly industrialized Tide Islands.

At 8 o'clock, after a hearty breakfast, a group of Hot Magic powered vehicles drove out of the lord’s mansion and opened the wide "First Avenue" along the concrete road. In the awe-inspiring eyes of the passing civilians, they merged into the sparse traffic flow. In, galloping into the distance.

At 8:15, the convoy arrived at a factory. When the guard at the door saw the convoy, he hurriedly removed the wooden roadblock at the gate and watched the convoy drive into the factory respectfully.

At 8:20, surrounded by the guards of the lord’s mansion, the consul lady and sister Aisha appeared on a concrete open plaza inside the factory.

Four huge pieces of linen were spread on the ground, and dozens of workers were walking around carrying wooden barrels, busy painting the linen with light yellow jellyfish paint.

"Strong, can this batch of hot air balloons dedicated to foreign trade be completed on schedule? There are only a few days away from the next voyage of the trade fleet. We have to speed up."

Angela looked at the middle-aged man standing aside with a stern look, and asked.

"Miss Archon, each balloon needs to be painted with jellyfish paint three times. With the factory's capacity, two balloons can be produced per day. As long as the hot-air balloon powered gondola of the machinery factory is delivered on time, we can definitely complete it on time." Strong Replied nervously.

The girl nodded slightly, then turned to look at another man in a black magician uniform.

"Aisley, can the'monkey version' power gondola be supplied on time?"

The "monkey version" mentioned by the girl refers to the low-end version of the magic mechanical equipment. This concept naturally comes from Renault.

According to the rules specified by Renault, the performance of any foreign trade version of the magic machine must be lower than the self-use version.

Taking hot air balloons as an example, the monkey version of the powered gondola does not use a "magic inflator" that can be inflated automatically, but a manual inflatable machine, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive to operate.

Its thermal heater is also simpler. The rune set used is the first-generation [thermal transformation] rune set, and its energy conversion efficiency is far lower than the latest version.

This has brought an obvious advantage, that is, the rune square plate is easier to engrave, the difficulty of manufacturing the heat magic heater is greatly reduced, and the cost is also reduced a lot.

In addition, in order to prevent being cracked by competitors, Renault, a nasty guy, also ordered rune magicians to add a large number of redundant and useless runes to the rune group, even if they are extremely skilled in rune literature, I am afraid it will take more than ten years of research to finally crack it.

Eisley bowed and said:

"Miss Archon, we expect to finish it at least 2 days in advance..."

At the same time, in another factory on Odin Island, Renault was concentrating on manipulating a large group of molten metal. Under the control of [Nian Power], several pieces of metal material flew over and sank into the molten liquid from time to time.

Obviously, he is refining some kind of metal alloy.

Near Renault, Adanis was squatting at his feet, squinting at the molten mass floating in the air.

He plans to use this alloy to make a new type of weapon, and then retaliate fiercely against the hateful sea frog.

The revenge of the broken arm must be reported!

In a village on the edge of the Nassau wetlands thousands of miles away, it is a completely different scene.

Kong Wu's powerful and well-dressed soldiers broke into every wooden hut unreasonably, dragged the villagers out, and brought them to the mud in the village.

Some villagers tried to resist, but this behavior would only provoke a violent beating for them. In the process of carrying out their tasks, these rude soldiers would also take the opportunity to lay hands on young peasant women or girls, causing panic. The cry of confusion and the roar of other villagers.

Coupled with the cry of children and the cry of the old people's pleading, the whole scene was messed up, and it was a scene of a black orc entering the village.

At this time, beside the clearing, Miss Arrietty, the granddaughter of Duke Thunder Eagle, was frowning and looking at the scene of turmoil and the dirty and smelly villagers. She couldn't help covering her nose, her beautiful eyes. There is no color of mercy, only contempt for the lowly and poor.

Beside her, an aristocratic youth with oily noodles said kindly:

"Beautiful Miss Alietti, all the villagers in Candela Village can gather today and be escorted to a nearby temporary camp. There will be special personnel in the camp to ensure that there will be no trouble."

"In addition, some villagers have fled, and I have sent soldiers with hounds to arrest..."

Alietti looked at him with a faint smile, and said diligently:

"Oh? Are many farmers running away?"

The aristocratic youth gave a dry laugh:

"It's not too much. Those **** untouchables don't know what is good or bad. Our soldiers under the Baron of Larsrid will definitely catch them all..."

Arrietty turned her head and glanced at the concentrated villagers in the clearing, and found that the number of mature men and women was significantly less than in other villages, and she immediately understood that there were probably not many people who had escaped.

She remembered Renault's confession when she left half a month ago, and her disgust for the incompetent guy next to her grew a little bit more, but her pretty face was still smiling.

"Mr. Butler, didn't I ask you to tell the villagers, ‘As long as you immigrate to Haichao, you will have a meal of meat every week’? Don’t the villagers in Candela believe it?

The smile on Butler's face became more and more awkward:

"Miss Alietti, you know, these **** untouchables... well... reluctant to leave the land where they lived for so many years..."

Arrietty glanced at the boring face opposite, and sighed lightly:

"Yes, change is always difficult..."

Butler laughed:

"Miss Alrietty, your reasonableness and wisdom are comparable to your beauty. You are indeed the most dazzling pearl in the northern kingdom of the kingdom..."

Arrietty listened to the other party's flattery, but she contempted the other party even more in her heart. She became more and more aware of how incompetent the dog-like guy in front of her was.

Not long ago, there was an invasion of the Black Orcs near the Nassau Wetlands. More than a dozen villages and towns were slaughtered. The whole area was panicked. As long as there is a chance, the villagers here are absolutely willing to leave.

Butler's "Villagers are reluctant to leave" is absolutely deceiving.

There must be only one reason for this situation in Candela Village, that is, the local villagers have completely distrusted the lord, and any word the lord said is a lie in the eyes of the villagers.

Therefore, in other villages, immigrants who can be dealt with by coaxing have to use violence in Candela.

In addition, the sentence "As long as you immigrate to Haichao, you will have a meal of meat every week", which has played a big role in most villages, and many villagers are indeed moved by this sentence.

This kind of thing sounds quite ridiculous, but in another world, this is a very attractive slogan.

Many poor people at the bottom are not able to eat meat once a year. When they heard that someone was willing to provide meat once a week, they were immediately moved.

Of course, this promise came from Renault, but his original words were, "As long as you come to Hai Chao Ling, you can eat meat every day."

He was telling the whole truth. Today, wheat and barley are by no means the cheapest food in Haichao. All kinds of dried shellfish and fish are the only ones that can eat meat on the table of every household.

Interestingly, for this big truth, Arrietty doesn't even believe in any punctuation.

Are you kidding me, in this world, only nobles can eat meat every day, Lord Renault, are you planning to let your leaders live the lives of nobles?

Therefore, the black-bellied girl "modified" Renault's original words and changed it to "eat meat once a week".

Of course, even "once a week," many nobles, including her, were dubious about it, but in order to trick the villagers into emigrating, they pretended to be the truth.

Seeing that there are more and more villagers in the open space, the proportion of middle-aged villagers is getting lower and lower, Arrietty suddenly said:

"Mr. Butler, if the ratio of Candela's middle-aged males to females has always been the same, I am afraid that the extraordinary man from overseas will not be willing to pay too high a price."

Butler's face suddenly became a little ugly:

"Miss Alietti, didn't you say it in advance? Regardless of men, women, old or young, a villager paid 40 silver nars as compensation for the lord..."

Arrietty shook her head slightly and said:

"Mr. Butler, I think you have forgotten an important premise, that is,'according to the normal family ratio.' If there are too many young and old, Lord Renault may not be able to pay according to the agreed price. For example, the villagers of Candela Village, I think he At most 30 silver nars/person..."

Butler gritted his teeth, turned his head and yelled at his hands:

"Hobbins, step up the hunt for the escaped villagers, don't let any of them go..."

"Yes, master!"

Alietti looked at the samurai who was going away, with a faint smile on her face.

As the “general subcontractor” of the Castro family for immigration matters, Renault offered them a price of up to 60 silver nars/person, while Alietti’s price for other nobles was 40 silver nars/person. After changing hands, he earned 20 silver nars/person.

What's more shameless is that this little girl still tries to keep down the price in order to make more profits. This time in Candela Village, if she succeeds in bargaining the price to 30 silver nars, the profit will be more than dozens of jinnars. .

On the other hand, Renault also outsourced the transportation of immigrants to them in order to make the Castro family better contribute. In this business, Allietty can also earn 10 silver nars/person.

The total number of immigrants is as high as 30,000. Renault needs to pay a total of 20,000 kinnals, and the Castro family alone can divide nearly half of the proceeds, which is 10,000 kinnals.

Obviously, in this wave of immigration, the Castro family is the one who gets the biggest piece of the cake.

However, all this was in Renault's expectation. He had known for a long time that the nobles of other worlds had this kind of insatiable virtue.

But Renault will not lose at all.

Because he doesn't need to spend a penny, the Castro family is already a partner of the Haichao Chamber of Commerce, and the money will be converted into the payment and sincerity.

In fact, Renault didn't have to pay. When the fleet arrived again with a large amount of merchandise, Arrietty had to pour a lot of money.

Compared with this low-profit "slave trade" business, the profitability of industrial production and the efficiency of making money are far beyond Arrietty's imagination, so Renault doesn't care at all.

Only 20,000 Kinnars. All the factories in this master's territory start working together, and they can earn it back in two days at most.
