Chapter 840 (1/2)
On the Skybreaker, tessro, Donne and others sat at a table, drinking tea and watching the rapidly changing construction site below, talking from time to time.
Just then, tessro suddenly put forward an idea.
”Do you want them all to join in building the city?”
Donne put down his tea cup and looked at tystro in surprise. ”Isn't that good now? Your people can stay in the new city in a few days.”
”No, that's not good at all.”
Tystro looked at Donne very seriously: ”the incident happened suddenly yesterday, so those people haven't reacted yet. They can only accept the arrangement, but seven days is not long or short. If they have been doing nothing, they will soon have trouble.”
”But if they have something to do, they will divert their attention and won't make trouble,” Donne smiled
”That's right, so I have to kill the spearhead before they mess up.”
”What's more, it's great that they can get paid for their work and mortgage part of our debt,” tystrow added
What he is really worried about is that now 1.2 million people are all in the wild without the protection of the city wall. If the believers of chaotic theology fish in troubled waters again and run over to do damage, no one can prevent it.
However, if all the people move to the construction site, they can get the protection of the element Lord, and the threat of chaotic believers can not be worried for the time being.
”The salary of 1.2 million people is not a small amount. Are you sure you want them to participate in the construction work?”
Donne looked at tystro meaningfully. He was eager to solve the potential dangers of the present, but ignored the potential dangers of the future.
If these people really participate in the construction work, it will certainly deepen their fetters with the city and make them more confident in guarding the city. However, accepting the remuneration of Datang chamber of Commerce means that 1.2 million people in brkeso have completely become employees of Datang chamber of Commerce during this period.
Everything is most afraid of the beginning. Once there is a precedent, there will be no psychological pressure to do it again in the future.
This means that in the future, the development of Tang chamber of Commerce in the Ryan empire will be smooth. Even if they encounter problems, they can easily find orcs to solve them - after all, they have worked for Tang chamber of Commerce before, and there is nothing to help.
This is certainly a good thing for Donne, but he doesn't believe it will fall on him.
”Sure, of course.”
Tessro nodded without hesitation.
Now these 1.2 million people are really a headache. He can't take care of them. If Donne leaves them here, in less than a week, the Ryan empire will be in chaos because of these refugees. He can't afford to gamble or lose.
Compared with such serious consequences, leaving these people to the rich Donne arrangement is tessro's only choice.
Don't worry about their making trouble, their hunger, and their safety. Even the progress of urban construction is more guaranteed. Moreover, because they also participate in the construction of the city, they must have a deep feeling for the city in the future, which is a good thing to kill more with one stone.
”We need to discuss this matter. Please wait a moment.”
Donne got up and went to Fiona, told her what tystro thought, and then asked, ”it's a rare good thing, but I wonder if our working capital can afford the salary of 1.2 million orcs?”
”You think too much, your majesty.”
Fiona smiled and said, ”before coming here, I asked about cocoa and vanilla, and also referred to the opinions of Mongo Kahn and Ursa. At present, the salary of Ryan empire is very low. They are more willing to use material objects as compensation than coins.”
”Barter?”
”It doesn't count. Most of the remuneration for their work is something that can be seen and touched, such as wheat flour, bacon, edible oil and so on, plus a small amount of money.”
”Because the economic vitality of the Ryan empire is not high, China has accumulated a large number of gold and silver coins left over from the previous dynasty, which is much larger than the economic strength of the Ryan empire. The Ryan empire is now in the state of inflation you call. These currencies almost stop circulating and all accumulate there, and the actual value of the currency is very low.”
”The circulating value of those currencies is far less than that of our Ilus gold coins, but money is money after all. The bosses of Ryan Empire abide by an unspoken rule. When settling wages, they use a part of physical goods and a part of money to settle, so as to slowly clear out the money squeezed on hand. Moreover, human traders from other places are also happy to trade with these gold coins If you want to go back to the Ilus Empire, you can find the royal collection point and exchange it for Ilus gold coins to make a lot of money... ”
Fiona stood up and said innocently, ”that's why those businessmen who run the Ryan Empire twice a year can always make a lot of money as long as they can come back smoothly.”
