Chapter 745 (1/2)

”Seeing you back with the virgin crown, I knew it should not be over.”

Fiona sighed, looked at Donne and said, ”come on, what's going on over there?”

”Not too bad.”

Don shrugged: ”nearly 200 demons have been killed, but at present, we estimate that a group of demons have left the rift valley, so the soldiers continue to pursue in two ways.”

”I hope nothing will go wrong.”

”Let's not talk about this first.”

Donne changed the subject and said, ”the micro magic array reproduction technology of the research institute has been conquered. Next, we need to adjust the production structure.”

”You say.”

Fiona immediately picked up the pen and paper and began to record.

”First of all, the most important thing is the production of special warheads. According to the existing improved magic array, we need to design at least six production lines of special warheads, which may not be enough.”

According to the current production efficiency, if the materials are complete, the alchemy puppet can complete the seal cutting of one bullet in a second, but even if a production line produces continuously in a day, it is only about 100000. Now the bullets consumed in a battle are calculated in hundreds of thousands. If Ellington is given the production time, the situation will be much better.

”Then expand production capacity and increase production lines.”

Fiona said decisively: ”the addition of artificial souls and alchemy puppets can greatly reduce the demand for human resources. We can optimize human resources and adjust the structural proportion of workers in this regard.”

The artificial soul brought by yustisa gives full play to the effect of the alchemy puppet. Many jobs can be replaced by the alchemy puppet, which brings the possibility of expanding production capacity to Ellington, which is short of manpower.

”Oh? Already have an idea?”

Fiona took out a book from the side and handed it to Donne: ”Angus came back a few days ago and now he's back. But this time, Lord Jean also went back with him. It's said that they found some interesting things in hornheim's library, but they left these materials and plans before they left.”

Donne opened it and looked at it roughly. He couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Angus wrote a plan to completely replace workers with alchemy puppets. Since alchemy puppets will not be tired, hungry or complain, they can fully obey orders, and what they consume is only some magic crystals, and the cost is even more elegant than hiring humans, he suggested that Donne completely replace human employees with alchemy puppets.

Donne smiled: ”you should know very well that we can only partially use alchemical puppets and can't completely replace human employees.”

Fiona nodded: ”indeed, master Angus seems to think too simple.”

As a ruler, Donne has to consider not only industrial costs, but also jobs.

Although the cost of employing human employees is relatively high, a large number of jobs can provide people with jobs and a stable income, which gives them a sense of belonging and will work hard to protect Ellington.

More importantly, because they all have jobs and income, Ellington's law and order will be so good.

Thanks to the sparsely populated prandal here, Donne has a headache because of the lack of people.

If it were on earth, there would be no such trouble. A large number of cheap labor can fully meet his needs.

At present, the working population of Ellington has officially exceeded 200000, and is growing rapidly with the number of nearly 10000 per month. The city has completely changed from a small town to a small city. According to prandal's standard, with 200000 permanent working population, it can be regarded as a medium-sized city.

It is worth mentioning that, with the support of Donne's policy of encouraging childbirth, as of the first day of midsummer, more than 50000 newborns have been born among Ellington residents, which is quite amazing.

This means that at least 50000 couples have been completely rooted in Ellington, and the proportion of the remaining single men and women is quite troublesome. In view of the special environment of prandal, the death rate of men is quite high, so the number of men is very small. Except 100000 married men and women, there are only 30000 marriageable men among the remaining single young adults, Seventy thousand are marriageable women.

Fiona had to continue to implement various attractive policies to attract young men to join Ellington.

For example, after moving to Ellington, every unmarried young man can not only be exempted from agricultural service, but also enjoy education and training. He can receive minimum living security every day until he has received training and arranged work, reduce certain tax burden in Ellington, get married and have children in Ellington, and enjoy special allowances

However, the effect is still not obvious.

In fact, including the newborn and the elderly, the population of Ellington is about to exceed 300000. When the population is larger, it will be more attractive to others. Like a snowball, the population will increase faster and faster, and the labor gap will be less and less until it finally reaches saturation.

”In fact, the growth rate of population here is not slow, but the growth rate of labor force can not catch up with the speed of our expansion. Just use the alchemy puppet to meet our production needs for the time being.”

Fiona took back her book and said reluctantly, ”after all, it takes time to catch up from other places. Not everyone can get on the carriage. Many desperate people are afraid to walk all the way, and even a large number of people will die on the road.”

Donne frowned when he heard the speech: ”I seem to have forgotten that.”
