Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

Chapter 846: Chapter 99: Territory Marketing Tactics and the New Monster Mount: Griffin Horse (Part 3)

This way, we don’t need to increase the proportion of the industrial population in the territory and can free up a large number of personnel to develop infrastructure.

Su Li decisively said, ”Then it’s decided, my friend. Belos, you and the Black Forest Armory must hurry to produce and strive to provide equipment to more knights.”

Then Su Li asked, ”Is there any issue with armor production?”

Belos immediately shook his head, confidently assuring, ”We are fully producing fine armor in the style of the Forbidden Guard from Hesse Territory. The price of this armor in our territory has already reached over 30 Golden Crowns and is still rising.”

”The reason for such acclaim is that we have been inspired to some extent by Senator Smith to add golden threads and vibranium to the armor.”

Of course, these golden threads and vibranium are minimal, possibly less than 1 gram of vibranium.

Do not underestimate 1 gram of vibranium and gold!

If you have seen gold leaf made from 1 gram of gold, you will know that after flattening it into a thin layer, its area is quite considerable.

Even some logos have pure gold because just a little can extend over a large area, a typical marketing strategy that raises the highest elegance at the lowest cost.

The Black Forest Armory also learned from classic marketing methods. Although vibranium is very precious, if the decoration on each armor contains less than 1 gram of vibranium, even a dozen grams won’t significantly impact the practical production in Hesse Territory.

After all, a perfect vibranium rune armor requires dozens of pounds of vibranium! Just 1 pound could craft hundreds of sets of fine-level armor into gilded armor.

”Additionally, our Black Forest Armory recycles armor from knights, only charging a 20 Golden Crown processing fee to upgrade their armor to a fine-level perfect armor.”

”With this method, we can sell an average of 30 sets of armor externally per day, and if we add the team of Gray Mountain dwarf envoys, we might even achieve the feat of selling 50 sets a day, along with hundreds of fine-level weapons.”

Su Li quickly calculated and then beamed with joy, ”Then, during the entire Radiant Competition Festival, we should sell nearly 500 sets of armor and over a thousand fine-level weapons?”

According to the current average price calculation, that’s about 20,000 Golden Crowns in armor revenue and thousands in weapon revenue.

If we also consider the effects of the Imperial Engineer College in the territory, we will unquestionably produce a batch of higher-level weapons, which means that just from selling weapons and armor, Hesse Territory could earn 35,000 Golden Crowns, even 40,000 Golden Crowns!

This would greatly enhance the reputation of the territory’s weaponry and military equipment! By then, these knights participating in expeditions, their armor shining brightly with many standard-issue equipment, will undoubtedly attract further attention.

This doesn’t even account for the selling prices of livestock and warhorses.

It can be said that this Radiant Competition Festival has already succeeded halfway, and as long as we stabilize the situation and continue to advance, we will certainly achieve tremendous success!

Su Li satisfactorily patted Belos on the shoulder and said, ”Very good, my Master of Forging. I have recruited a Divine Chosen Level helper for you, so you can focus on full-scale production at the Black Forest Armory. I will now go for a tour at the ranch.”

”To the ranch?” Bierga remembered his identity as a dwarf envoy and promptly said, ”My tall friend, please allow me to accompany you. We also need to discuss a beef and venison trade with you.”

Su Li looked at Bierga with interest, happy that someone wanted to buy his grain, as he aimed to establish a frontier grain storehouse.

Thus, he eagerly asked, ”My friend, why don’t we discuss this matter? Perhaps you can tell me about your dwarven dietary culture.”

This was Su Li’s first close interaction with the upper echelon of the Dwarf Kingdom, and he naturally wanted to deepen his understanding of the dwarves. As his strength grew, perhaps one day the entire Gray Mountain dwarves could become his powerful and reliable allies.

He was quite curious to know how many dwarves the Gray Mountain Province could support and how many troops it could provide.

Bierga, without reservation, cheerfully began his introduction, ”Speaking of diet, we dwarves have a long history. Don’t misunderstand us; the dwarven diet is quite similar to that of humans. In ancient times, dwarves developed certain crops that could be grown in underground halls and used directed light for irradiation. These plants are usually grains, such as oats, barley, wheat, and hops.”

”Some root tubers and dwarf fruit trees (pears, apples, and cherries) are also planted. Most of the grains are used to brew beer and make bread, while the leftover food is stored in underground warehouses for dwarves and livestock during winter. In some deeper caves, dwarf farmers cultivate several fungi, typically used as condiments, but during scarcity, they can also serve as staples.”

”The open areas and arable land of the Dwarf Fortress are located in the territories between the border and fortress, often constructed into expansive, spectacular terraces on the mountains. If the weather is favorable, and there’s peace, the yields from these ground farms can be excellent, increasing the food supply of the underground agricultural hall in the fortress. Some dwarf farms are spread beyond the border, hidden in some concealed valleys, but they’re not far from the fortress. Most of the external farms can only be accessed through secret passages known only to the dwarves. Indeed, very few people stumble upon these dwarf farms.”
