Alien Arms Empire

 Chapter 1919Expansion Plan

“How can I find a suitable teacher for you? The Count can’t help you with everything! Your rifle purchase amount is probably not able to support such a huge plan.”

"You're right, maybe I'm a little too optimistic." Tang Mo also felt that relying on a poor officer to handle these things was a bit too much.

Although the Earl's reputation in Beiling is indeed very high and his dominance is very strong, Tang Mo also knows that this is Bunas, and the Earl's influence is beyond his reach.

 Furthermore, for his own personal reasons, he did not want to put all his trump cards under the Earl's nose.

 Although the current cooperation between the two parties is indeed very stable and enjoyable, who knows what it will develop into in the future?

Thinking of Tang Mo here, he realized that there were still many things he had to do, many things he needed to worry about, and many things had to be prepared now.

 After all, some things can be accelerated, while some things cannot be helped and can only be accumulated over time.

For example, if Tang Mo wants to establish a qualified intelligence network, he needs to recruit people covertly and patiently build it up bit by bit.

  Comparatively speaking, building a primary school is still a very simple matter for Tang Mo. The investment is not huge, it only requires some wooden houses and a few recruited teachers.

 The treatment for junior teachers these days is actually very average. No one pays much attention to the education of civilians, so it is not difficult to recruit a few teachers to teach.

Tang Mo has actually made up his mind to build a school, because he knows that if he wants to gain a foothold in this world, he should cultivate a group of talents who can understand him!

 In his plan, building factories requires a large number of talents, a large number of modern industrial talents who are literate and can evolve themselves!

Moreover, it is not just such manufacturing talents, but also a large number of management talents who manage factories for him and can keep up with his ideas.

Coupled with the intelligence summary and analysis talents to build the intelligence network he needs, and the combat talents to protect his industry...

 So many talents need to be cultivated by himself. This is not the earth of the 21st century, the kind of era where college students can grab a handful of things and come and go as soon as they are called.

So he can only cultivate these talents by himself, cultivate them bit by bit, irrigate bit by bit, and wait for these seeds to take root and sprout, and eventually grow up to become towering trees that can protect them from the wind and rain.

 Tang Mo didn’t want to have to go to the customer’s place to be a training instructor when he was selling fighter jets in a few years or even more than ten years.

His military-industrial empire will continue to move forward, and at some point it will move forward rapidly—the world cannot keep up with his speed of development, so he can only pull the whole world forward.

 But he cannot do everything on his own, so he needs countless people who can do things for him, and of these people... there are none yet!

 Neither Matthews nor Roger met Tang Mo's requirements. Such people may develop into very loyal subordinates in the future, but like the whole world, they have no way to keep up with Tang Mo's progress.

Tang Mo was confident that he could pull them forward together. He could personally train the old dwarf Matthews into a technical master. He was also confident of transforming Roger into a close confidant, but he did not have time to destroy everyone he met. Transformed into what he needs.

 So he needs schools, a lot of schools, all kinds of schools, to help him cultivate the talents he needs as soon as possible.

He muttered in a low voice and did not ask Tiger to help him build a school: "However, I should build a school. This is something that must be done! In my factory, everyone should be literate and know how to build a school. It makes sense!”

After making up his mind to build a school, he looked at Tiger again, as if he was looking at a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered: "Follow me! Tiger! The first thing we have to deal with is the land! With this , most things can be solved easily!”

Now, under the banner of the Earl, he is going to acquire a large piece of cheap land between Bunas and the Vicious Forest for future development and expansion.

 He even wants to buy a piece of land by the sea and try his best to build his own port in the future to expand overseas trade.

 In short, what he has to do now is to spend a lot of money to expand his power as soon as possible, even just a little bit!

 “Wes!” Tang Mo called his current security captain before going out. Although this ranger from Beiling is not very loyal, to Tang Mo he is much better than Tiger.

 At least Weiss is nominally his, and Tiger is nominally his, but he also belongs to Earl Fisherow...

 “Boss!” Weiss, who was chatting with several count soldiers at the gate, heard Tang Mo’s call and rushed over immediately.

"We are going to visit the mayor of Bunas and the Sheriff... Get the carriage ready!" Tang Mo ordered Weiss.

"Okay! I'll go right away." Weiss nodded and walked towards his house. After he saw Tiger, he guessed that Tang Mo was preparing to show off his strength, so he went to get his weapon first.

Since you are going to show off your power and intimidate others, you should naturally bring scary props. Obviously, the most terrifying prop in this era must be the musket. "You guys, follow me!" Tiger beside him also realized that if he was just going to discuss business, there was no need for Tang Mo to let him follow. He was just a bit upright, but not stupid, so he quickly figured out what Tang Mo meant.

 It is simply impossible to purchase a large amount of land and building materials with existing gold coins.

Therefore, under the banner of the Earl, it is necessary to find a way to make one gold coin reflect the value of two or even three gold coins.

 Because one of his purposes here is to help Tang Mo settle some troubles, Tiger felt that it was necessary to show his presence at this time.

In the previous requirements of Tang Mo, he could only rely on the way of writing to contact the Earl. This time he obviously had the ability to settle himself, and naturally he was shaking.

Soon, Tang Mo's carriage appeared on the streets of Bunas Town. What was different from the past was that this time, behind his carriage were six soldiers carrying flintlocks.

Tiger is riding on his war horse, followed by two men with wolf flags. The whole team is not huge in the lively town, but it is definitely an eye-catching formation.

It is rare that such a party visits Bunas, and in some respects the town is almost undefended.

The navy of the Kingdom of Leyte is basically deployed near the large ports further south. Bunas's main role is actually only to undertake fishing tasks.

 The Kingdom of Susas, which had a bad relationship with the Kingdom of Leyte, could not attack Bunas from the sea, so the kingdom did not deploy heavy troops here.

Even from a distance, you can hear the noisy shouts in the market: "Cooking cakes! Cooking cakes! Cheap!" "Apples! Delicious apples!"

These hawking sounds made people feel friendly and made the whole town full of life. Tang Mo leaned in the carriage of the carriage and with his eyes closed, he felt more and more peaceful and comfortable.

Tiger was riding on his war horse, squinting at the flourishing market in the distance. People were selling their goods under the walls of the not-tall stone buildings.

Dried salted fish hangs on a wooden shelf. These things come from a not-so-distant seaside village. You can also see some businessmen from distant countries holding some tropical fruits in their hands to sell.

Some people were leading livestock, and some were pulling carts. The crowded streets were lined with stone buildings—Tang Mo had seen this kind of narrow street structure in Western-style cities before crossing, which was messy and backward.

 The typical basic urban design built for street battle defense has been filled with many meaningless civilian buildings after years of development.

The walls with the main body made of stone or the side of the house are shelters made of wood. Some windows have furs hung to dry, and some walls have carvings on them - simple human faces or animal heads, which don't look exquisite at all. .

 Everyone is crowded together, the steps are densely packed, the practicality is actually very poor, and the sanitary conditions are not very good. The ditches extending along the walls on both sides of the street emitted an unpleasant smell, and rats could even be seen scurrying through them.

When the crowd on the street saw Tang Mo's team, the atmosphere seemed to become a little heavier.

 The cloud of war has been hanging over everyone's mind recently, and everyone is full of fear of the impending war.

 A group of soldiers suddenly appeared in a small town, which would certainly make the people here extremely nervous. Everyone was panic-stricken, fearing that these soldiers were here to recruit soldiers or brought some bad news.

Everyone watched with curiosity as these people stopped in front of the most glamorous office building built of gray and white stone in the town.

 It is said to be an office building, but in fact it only has two floors and is not very spectacular. The tax office and the police station are crowded here, and the mayor also handles official business here.

In fact, there is a prison behind here, which is used to temporarily detain criminals. There is a long corridor connecting the prison and the small office building at the back, overlooking an I-shaped structure.

　　When they saw the wolf flag representing Lord Fisherlot parked at the door, the guards in the two towns didn't know what was going on.

They watched in a daze as Tiger turned over and dismounted, and then saw him open the door of the carriage. Then they saw a familiar face and jumped out of the carriage.

“Don’t interrupt whatever I say for a while, do you understand?” Tang Mo warned Tiger again.

Thanks to the coffee-loving potato, thank you for your support!
