Coupled with the ability to import the required raw materials at preferential prices, the contracts signed with the two major chambers of commerce of Gap Island and Crescent have made Owen very fruitful.In particular, they are willing to supply large quantities of trona and olive fruit and other plant seeds that can be used to extract oil, which are the raw materials needed to make soap.It seems that Owen will have to ask Viru to build a soap factory before the next fleet arrives, so that production can be put directly into production at that time.Not only that, but the two chambers of commerce are also preparing to bring two large sea ships over and ask Owen to help transform the ships.When introducing the cement steamship, Owen said that the original wooden ship could be modified and that the wooden ship equipped with a steam engine could also sail without sails.The renovation price is much cheaper than a brand new cement ship, and the two major chambers of commerce are also interested in it, so they put forward a request for retrofit.Not only the Gap Island and Crescent Chambers of Commerce, but also other chambers of commerce, such as the Twin Chambers of Commerce, have also requested one or two ships of various sizes to be converted.Because the price of modification is different for different sizes of boats, Owen asks them to drive the boat over, and then an appraisal will be given a conversion price.Pay a 30% deposit in advance, and pay the rest of the money after the renovation is completed.During the group's stay, Owen also made a point of asking Hintern about the sales of previous goods."
As long as you find the right market, there is no product that cannot be sold."
To this, Heynt replied with a smile: "The goods produced in your border town are all in demand, and they are sold out all at once, otherwise my purchase this time will not be more than last time." ”"That's good."
Owen nodded.That's the power of a successful businessman, always finding the exact target customer, selling the product that hits the customer's pain points, and selling it at the highest possible price."
I used to sell paper to an official who often handles paperwork, and he was full of praise for the paper, and he hoped that I would sell him more next time."
Hintern specifically mentioned the evaluation of his customers, and then analyzed: "Now that your paper production is so high, the price has also dropped a little.At this rate, it is only a matter of time before paper completely replaces parchment. ”"I agree with that."
Owen responded.Through the Gemini Chamber of Commerce, the first batch of paper sold to the outside world has been sold to various places, and as more and more people feel the convenience of paper, the paper craze will probably rise quickly.By then, there will definitely be a large demand for paper everywhere.Fortunately, Owen anticipated this early on, expanding the paper mill into a paper plant, upgrading and replacing paper equipment, and greatly increasing paper production.Of course, the border town itself also has a large demand for paper in terms of education, office and printing.On the fourth day, the luxurious merchant group boarded the fleet full of goods, set sail and departed south.Looking at the busy and crowded dock, Owen couldn't help but shake his head and sigh."
Alas—the dock is still small.""
Huh?"
Marpel on the side was surprised, "Isn't it enough to build so many trestle bridges?"
”Owen had thought that the docks in Frontier Town were not big enough, so he asked Viru to take carpenters to expand the docks and build several new trestle bridges."
Yes, not enough.And, you see. ”Owen raised his hand to a certain trestle, where two ships were moored.A ship's porter is unloading and moving the cargo to the yard.The other boat was full of people, and the crowd walked off the boat in a bustling manner, which also hindered the work of the porters."
Each pier is a mix of people and goods, which is very chaotic and makes the operation of the terminal very inefficient.""
It's exactly as Lord Owen said."
It was rare for Marpel to understand.Considering that more merchant ships would come to the border town to trade in the future, Owen saw the need to further expand and renovate the docks, and set up a subordinate department dedicated to managing the docks.To that end, Owen plans to consult with Winster.Hopefully, he can provide a good solution to separate people and goods and improve the operational efficiency of the terminal.…… Above the Enchanted Forest, Winnie of the Winged Clan is flying freely.The ringing sound.She had been locked in a cage before, and it had been a long time since she had flown so freely, and Winnie felt amazing.At this moment, she was wearing light clothes provided by Owen and a pair of goggles in front of her.Upon returning to Frontier, Owen conducted a series of flight tests on Winnie.When asked if she could fly faster, she said that if she flew faster, her eyes would be blown by the wind in front of her, and it would be dangerous to not see ahead.As a result, the next day, Owen gave Winnie a pair of goggles and asked her to conduct another flight test.As soon as she put on the goggles, Winnie fell in love with them.With the protection of the goggles, she can fly at high speed with impunity, and this refreshing experience makes her a little addicted."
Wow - so comfortable!""
Flying on the sea is a completely different feeling," she says. ”With a few flaps of her wings, Winnie suddenly pulled up and hovered in the air."
Uh-huh......" she flapped her wings as she peered into the distance, as if looking for something."
AhhFound it!
”Seeing the silhouette of a village looming in the distance, Winnie was excited, and that should be the destination of this mission.Owen gave her the task of finding the village of the Sunken Sand tribe and carrying two letters to the acting patriarch there, Keman.It was also a training session, and Owen intended to train Winnie to be a professional messenger, responsible for delivering some urgent letters.Finally finding a place, Winnie quickly dived down and accelerated towards her target.The village of the Shensha tribe has a watchtower on both sides of the village gate.The lizardman in charge of guarding one of the towers was so panicked that he couldn't help but yawn and inadvertently look into the air."
Huh?"
Suddenly, I noticed a small black dot in the air, which seemed to be flying in the direction of the village.Seeing this, the lizardman quickly leaned out of his upper body and shouted downward, "Everyone, attention!
An unknown target in the air was flying towards our village. ”The news quickly reached the acting patriarch Keman.Since the other party can fly in the air, it is not clear where they will land in the village, so he immediately ordered all the old and young lizardmen to hide in their homes, and all the lizard warriors took up arms to keep guard throughout the village.Winnie soon flew above the village, circled for a while, and landed in the spacious central square.As soon as she landed on the ground, the lizardmen in the square quickly surrounded her, raising their weapons, both muskets and spears.Glancing at the lizardmen, Winnie spoke, "Is this the village of the Sunken Sand tribe?"
I'm flying here from Frontier Town, but I'm not an enemy!
