v6 Chapter 143： Two Dukes of the Governor (1/2)

According to the preliminary plan, the investment of the new Feishang Association's Julu Island offshore base will exceed at least 20 million gold coins. It is expected that the construction time will be at least three years. It can be said that it is the first super-large project since the establishment of the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce. +◆

When this offshore base is completely completed, the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce will have a stronghold in the southern sea of ​​the endless sea.

And the site of this base was so ingenious that it just slammed all the sea lanes from the southern sea of ​​the endless sea to the Principality of Stading.

Any vessel that wants to travel to the host country of Stading via the sea passage cannot completely escape the control of the base. This is equivalent to setting up a gate in the southern waters, so that the new flyer will no longer have to worry about suddenness from the southern waters. attack.

For Xu Yi, this sea base is just an attempt.

As long as he has accumulated enough experience, when conditions are right, he will inevitably extend this sea base from the endless sea all the way, eventually spreading the entire endless sea, forming a chain of sea bases on the endless sea. Together with the small bases distributed on various islands, it will form the most complete control over the entire endless sea.

The reason why this is done is actually a conjecture derived from Xu Yi.

By observing the various details of the years on the continent of Sainz, Xu also determined that the world should still be on a planet like Earth, not the world in the inexplicable space.

In this case, he firmly believes that this world is certainly not just the continent of Sainz.

And all the races on this continent have legends about other continents, which indirectly proves Xu Yi’s conjecture.

Well, since this world is not just a continent, it was incomprehensible in the eyes of many people. It can be said that the endless sea where people are not allowed to enter. In Xu Yi's eyes, it has become a treasure house with countless treasures.

He firmly believes. Being able to have absolute control over the endless sea, the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce has endless possibilities, and is no longer limited to the land of Sainz, which has long been divided by the powers.

But the price you have to pay to achieve this goal is quite amazing.

According to preliminary estimates, this Julu Island offshore base will invest at least 20 million gold coins when it is built, and the annual fixed investment will never be lower than 3 million gold coins.

A new base for a maritime base can easily be afforded, but if it becomes ten or even dozens, it can be a huge burden.

So while building this offshore base. Xu is already considering the possibility of profitability at this offshore base.

But for now, he has no clue for the time being...

This time, Xu also stayed at the sea base for a full week. After seeing the foundation of the sea base begin to take shape, he took the magic airship and left for the southern military port of the Candela Empire farther northeast.

Compared to the Kingdom of Rulson's thirst for frigates, the Candela empire is much more direct.

Although the relationship between the two sides is not so sympathetic, the Candela Empire officially will not make contact with the New Flying Chamber of Commerce in a big way, but in the private Candela empire, many people are actively contacting the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, trying to seek Cooperation.

One of the most active ones is the Candela Empire Navy.

Because of cooperation with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, I chose to open three military ports. Only in the last half of the year, the Candela Empire Navy has earned an astonishing tax revenue of up to three million gold coins through unparalleled sea transportation.

Plus a lot of seawater influx. Bringing a boom to the cities around the three military forces, as well as the entire southern Tural province, has also increased the tax revenues of these places, making the Candela empire that actually controls this large area. The Navy has benefited a lot from it.

The first thing the Candela Imperial Navy has tasted is the disarmament...

Don't be surprised, it is disarmament.

When the Candela Empire Navy announced that it would cut up 60% of the service personnel inside the Imperial Navy, and at the same time let nearly half of the naval warships be cut, everyone was taken aback.

Most people believe that this must be because the annual budget of Candeladi is tight, so in the end, in order to ensure the Army's budget, it was forced to cut the naval budget significantly, resulting in a large layoff and reduction of warships.

In reality, however, these acts were made by the Candela Empire Navy itself to the military, and were finally approved by the military and the Imperial House and the Emperor.

The reason for this is of course to cut the high expenditure of up to 25 million gold coins per year in the Candela Empire.

After the disarmament, the annual spending of the Candela Empire Navy will directly save more than 10 million gold coins. With the corresponding income obtained through the opening of the three military ports and surrounding cities, the Candela Empire can even produce up to one thousand in a year. A huge sum of millions of gold coins.

The reason why the Candela Empire Navy has spent all its money to save such a large sum of money is, of course, to buy more magic frigates from the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
