Two months have passed, and the training of the recruits is almost done.
Holding a gun, shooting, and marching in formation, two months of training is more than enough.
Now Gu Yuan’s military force has officially expanded to more than 12,000 people.
It is organized into a division, with a total of six regiments.
Gu Yuan personally served as the division commander and initially awarded himself the rank of major general.
Within these two months, with the great help of the system craftsmen, the car has been developed and initially mass-produced.
At the same time, this time also made Gu Yuan clearly realize the disadvantage of insufficient population.
Arsenal, textile mills, steel mills.
The suburbs of Los City are full of factories, and now most of the population of Los Country has moved to Los City.
Most of the people in Los City, which has reached a population of 450,000, work in factories.
It is precisely because everyone is basically���Only after mobilization can Gu Yuan’s productivity keep up.
And this also makes Gu Yuan feel insufficient.
The population is still too small.
In this case, it is necessary to swallow the Kingdom of Nord.
The population of the Kingdom of Nord is three million, six times that of Los.
In the past two months, the production of military trucks has reached only two hundred.
However, this type of truck is a newly designed truck. Unlike the previous life, it can still seat thirty people in a slightly spacious environment.
That is, a platoon.
In other words, a maximum of six thousand people can be transported at a time.
But Gu Yuan does not need six thousand people to invade the Kingdom of Nord.
Gu Yuan plans to transport two regiments of troops to the Kingdom of Nord first, and other vehicles will transport some weapons, equipment, bags, ammunition, supplies, etc.
At this time, Gu Yuan met some old friends.
“Your Majesty, may you be well!”
“”Hahahaha, Your Majesty.”
In the reception room of Los City, seven merchants bowed in front of Gu Yuan with a smile.
“Everyone, I haven’t seen you for a while. You’ve all gained a lot of weight.”
Gu Yuan sat on the sofa with his legs crossed. He looked at the seven businessmen in front of him.
Compared with two and a half months ago, they looked much better.
“You must have made a lot of money during this period.”
“Hey, Your Majesty, look at what you said. We can make money because of Your Majesty’s blessing.”
The fat bearded businessman waved his hands and said flatteringly
“Yes, yes, it’s all because of you, Your Majesty, that we are where we are today.”
The other merchants echoed.
At this time, Lina came in with a silver tray with a cup of hot black tea on it.
“Okay, stop flattering me. You guys came to see me today, just tell me what you want to say.”
Gu Yuan picked up the cup of black tea and reached out to touch Lina’s furry little head.
Lina closed her silver eyes in enjoyment, and a small tail behind her swung back and forth.
“Your Majesty, we are here to give you money today.”
The fat bearded merchant said quickly
“Hey, we want to increase our business, but the quantity is insufficient, so we want to buy a large batch of goods from you.”
The fat bearded businessman rubbed his palms and said with a smile
“How much do you want?”
Gu Yuan took a sip of black tea and asked casually.
“Twelve million.”
The fat bearded businessman smiled and said a number.
“Twelve million worth of goods, the seven of you have at least increased your wealth tenfold in the past two months, you have made a lot of money.”
Gu Yuan put down the tea in his hand and smiled.
“Look, look at what you said, isn’t it all thanks to you?”
When the seven businessmen heard this, they broke out in cold sweat and spoke tremblingly.
They still remember the businessman who died in the conference room with a flowery forehead.
No one reacted, the forehead was instantly opened, brain matter, blood, splattered all over the floor, and Gu Yuan’s expression remained unchanged, and even his smile made them deeply impressed.
None of them wanted to end up like that.
The more they saw outside, the more they realized how terrible Gu Yuan was.
Electric lights are not magical creations, and they don’t even know their principles. The only thing they know is that Gu Yuan can easily and mass-produce such things, and his hidden strength is unfathomable.
“OK, I agree to the 12 million yuan price. I will pay half of the payment first, and then I will pay the other half after I pick up the goods in ten days.”
Gu Yuan nodded.
“Here, Your Majesty, we would like to ask you to look at something.”
The seven merchants looked at each other and said to Gu Yuan.
“What is it?”
Gu Yuan asked
“This is it.
The fat bearded merchant waved his hand, and a servant came in with a box in his hand. The box was open, and inside it was a blue crystal ball.
“What is this?”
Gu Yuan’s eyes were filled with curiosity.
“Your Majesty, this is the Knowledge Magic Ball, a magical creation from the Central Region. It can copy more than 80% of a person’s knowledge and pass it on to another person. The only side effect is that the knowledge level of the person being transferred will never improve.”
The fat bearded businessman introduced
“There is such a thing!”
Gu Yuan was delighted, he absolutely needed this thing.
With this thing, he could mass-produce some medium and high-level scientific and technological talents!
What this means to him is self-evident.
As for the fact that the knowledge level of the people being transmitted cannot be improved, it is simple. First, get a group of people with medium and high-level knowledge to serve as the mainstay of domestic scientific and technological talents.
At the same time, open schools in the country, so that after five or six years, when the students become talents, they can replace those who use the knowledge magic ball.
During this period of time, the knowledge magic ball can definitely make up for the shortage of domestic talents to the greatest extent!
“Very good! How much does this one cost?”
Gu Yuan asked directly. He obviously didn’t think that these businessmen would give it to him without asking for money. That was simply unrealistic.
“One thousand five hundred gold coins each, but Your Majesty, you can just exchange it with goods. We will suffer a loss. One magic ball of knowledge can be exchanged for twelve electric lights.
The merchants were delighted.
“By the way, where did you get these magic balls of knowledge?”
Gu Yuan asked
“Your Majesty, to be honest, this is a magician friend I met in the Central Region. His attainments in magic are not high, but he is very knowledgeable about magical creations. This magic ball of knowledge was invented by him, but he is not valued by other magicians and is even excluded because other magicians think he is stifling the future of magicians. Therefore, he is living a very miserable life now. As his friend, I naturally want to help him.”
The fat businessman said.
The Magic Ball of Knowledge is definitely a good thing for Gu Yuan, but it may not be for magicians.
They are magicians who strive for excellence throughout their lives and practice magic in order to achieve the divine way.
If they use the Magic Ball of Knowledge, then their magical knowledge will always be frozen at that moment.
And if the magical knowledge does not improve, how can the realm improve accordingly?
So for most magicians, the Magic Ball of Knowledge is something they can never accept, because for them, the Magic Ball of Knowledge is equivalent to strangling their own future and severing their own divine way!
After hearing the fat businessman’s explanation, Gu Yuan had a plan in his mind, he said:”If possible, say hello to him for me when you go to see him next time. You will take the certificate I issued to the treasury to Stephens to withdraw 100,000 gold coins, and give it to the magician who made the Magic Ball of Knowledge on my behalf.”
You magicians don’t like such a good talent, so I, Gu Yuan, want it!
