Chapter 198 198 Last Peace

"Come on! Put these things on platform 2! The supplies in the back are to be shipped to Greiken's! Don't delay!" A dispatcher stood on the platform full of goods, looked towards the opposite platform No. 2 and warned loudly.

Around, some workers are working hard. They come all the way from Alanhill in order to work here and get more travel bonus.

Alanhill labor law stipulates that all workers of Alanhill nationality must have corresponding allowances and bonuses for overtime work on business trips, which is why there are more and more workers in Alanhill.

The more you earn, the more respected you will naturally be. Everyone is willing to do a decent job, and workers are now arguably the more decent regular jobs in Alanhill.

As long as you can apprentice finished apprenticeship, you have the opportunity to pass the assessment and review, and finally use the knowledge magic ball to be promoted to engineer. Then there are engineer post allowances that can be taken, and children can also be better educated.

Of course, I heard that there are also fools who are dissatisfied. After being promoted to engineers, they stole the technical data of the Alanhill Empire. Some of them sell it, and some are given to other countries, but most of these people have nothing. Good end.

I heard that the most typical one is called Shrek, who was sentenced to death, and the whole family was exiled to the steppe empire where the conditions were harsh and there was no technical work to do hard labor...

But not allowed. Needless to say, any idea of holding on to one's own leading technology cannot be based on technological blockade. Standing still will only stop oneself from progressing, and only continuous innovation and development is the best way to stay ahead.

No matter from what channel the technology is obtained, there are some industrial shadows of Alanhill in many places recently. Many Magic Empires have begun mass production of various weapons, and some can even make machinery.

After buying power generation equipment, these countries began to copy them on a large scale, build power plants to use electricity, and develop their own industrial base with Alanhill's obsolete technology - the world is also progressing, especially when these countries when harboring malicious intentions.

Recently, Magic Empire also has its own powered vehicle, which is a vehicle powered by burning magic spar energy. They're not comfortable, more like an early classic car. But many technologies are borrowed from Alanhill, including the shock-absorbing structure, and the rubber tires.

In short, intentionally or not, Alanhill's technology is proliferating. Many businessmen are sparing no effort to promote Alanhill's civilian technology, but these civilian technologies are also improving the military production capacity of the surrounding areas in some aspects.

Of course, this is also beneficial. For example, on both sides of the railway crossing the Holy Demon Emperor, there are many villages, towns and cities that have started their own industrialization. After all, importing Alanhill products requires foreign exchange, and exporting some products to fill some trade deficits is also an inevitable choice for a country.

Because of this, in order to save costs, Alanhill handed over materials such as tent shoes and socks, soap towels, toothbrush gloves and even armed helmets to the Holy Demon Emperor for production. It's cheaper to make them here and ship them to Grecon anyway.

Therefore, the towns of the Holy Demon Emperor country on both sides of the railway began to be prosperous and lively. Although the pollution caused by burning coal was annoying to the aborigines of the Holy Demon Emperor Country, the real gold of the Holy Demon Emperor Country returned in exchange. , white silver subsidy also allowed them to improve their living conditions.

"Lift those things into the carriage! Don't be too careful! Those are all bandages! Don't be afraid of bumps!" The dispatcher on the platform held a record book and recorded the materials just loaded, and then shouted loudly in the distance.

The station he is in charge of is the busiest station nearby. There's always a lot of stuff being transported here, and then other stuff, going to Gricken. The materials unloaded here were exported to the Holy Demon Emperor, and those loaded and transported to Greken were exported to Alanhill from the Holy Demon Emperor.

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

A war is nothing but money. Although Alanhill didn't make much money in this war, he didn't lose everything.

At least Glickon will provide a lot of precious metals and magic materials to reward Alanhill for stepping up at a critical moment.

"Yo! John is in charge! You are here." An old man from the Holy Demon Emperor country, wearing a plain robe, walked over with a smile on his face, greeting him very attentively.

The two people are familiar with each other for a long time, and they can no longer be familiar with each other. This old man is an elder in a nearby town, similar to the mayor. There are two factories in his town that produce shoes and socks, and he has obtained the aptitude for producing military supplies, so he often comes to this small station to deliver his own goods, and is familiar with everyone on and off the train station.

The steward asked John to put away the notebook, tuck it under his arm, and greeted the international friends in front of him with a smile.

To John, the people here are no different from those in his hometown. All the same life, all the same ordinary. Except for the occasional hearing of a few more magicians among them, everything else is almost the same.

In the earliest days, these locals looked down on the outside Alanhill railroad workers. But with the passage of time, there is not much estrangement between everyone in the trade exchanges. Many mortals who work in the railway station have visited the nearby towns as guests, and there are also many youngsters in the nearby towns who come to the railway station to find various jobs.

"This batch of goods has all passed the quality inspection! Be careful when transporting! The best skins, nourishing feet and perspiration are all the animal skins from the north! Quality It's alright!" The old man rambled, instructing John to take care of his products.

John took a pair of beautiful and sturdy leather shoes from the other party's hands, and replied with a smile on his face: "Old Master, you are too polite, which time I didn't find one for you. A good car?"

The old man smiled even more, nodded and said Xie: "Yes, yes! You brat I know you are honest and honest when I look at it, old fellow I like to make friends like you. I have time to go to my house for a cup of tea, my little granddaughter, I have been talking about you."

Can you not talk about it? The last time I went there, I didn't have any good gifts, so I got some toffee from non-military supplies and took it to the Old Master's house.

As a result, which little child doesn't like toffee this thing? Normally I can't eat this Alanhill "specialty", because the Holy Demon Emperor strictly restricts the import of various Alanhill materials.

After all, the Holy Demon Emperor's trade with Alanhill has always been a deficit, and they can only use products such as Knowledge Magic Balls to fill the huge deficit gap. Therefore, the precious import share is reserved for machinery and the technology that must be introduced. How can there be a waste to import toffee and the like?

The equipment and technology for producing toffee are also low priority in the eyes of the high-level officials of the Holy Demon Emperor, and cannot be compared with other advanced technologies at all, so there are many ordinary lives in Alanhill folks. Concoctions are hard to find in the Holy Demon Emperor country.

On the other hand, it can also be seen how huge the improvement in the living standards of the mortal empire is: before the Magic Empire had some mortal empires that did not, but now the situation has been completely reversed in Alanhill come over.

The current situation is that Alanhill's people's living standards have begun to improve significantly due to the increase in productivity, but the surrounding countries have not yet achieved this step, so they are much slower.

The capital accumulated before, with Alanhill's victory in the war, with the subsequent plundering of the product began to decrease, the state of Magic Empire aloof and remote has been broken, and the good life naturally ceased to exist, with As a result, the low and pitiful productivity was exposed, which became the most fundamental source of the contradiction.

"Wait for my holiday in a few days! You've seen it these days... I'm really busy here." John pointed to the platform not far away and said, "Listen. Said that Greken was playing very hard..."

"I know, I know, the fighting is fierce there, so we can buy more here..." "If you want me to tell you, we should also send the army to support, right?"

He has a good plan, as long as it supports the army of Greken, someone will pay for it. . His shoes and socks are all daily consumables. The more the army sells, the better. When the time comes, he makes a lot of money, which is of course a good thing.

Therefore, he can be said to be the kind of person who sincerely hopes that the Holy Demon Emperor will join the war, and he is much more active than many people.

"Hey... sooner or later! Maybe in a few days, you'll be using this railroad to send your troops to Grecon as well." John replied casually, He started to command the cranes around him. At this time of the day, I haven't even had time to eat a bite, and I really don't have much time to chat.

The old man watched for a while, then walked away. It's not that he really has nothing to do. He just came here to keep in touch with his relationship and maintain his contacts. It can be used when the time comes.

He walked out of the train station with his hands behind his back, and saw the maintenance workers along the railway, and also saw to-and-fro cars full of goods and mountain movers.

These means of transport are crowded together, the horns and shouts are one after another, and the busy railway station, the huge crane, the foggy locomotive, and the long carriages form a vivid picture. In this picture, there is a kind of beauty that is called tranquility.

Of course, this may also be the last peace.
