Starting Life as a Baron - Chapter 367

[Chapter 365 Light industrial textile industry, Jackson is about to break through]

The opening of the iron train means that the Principality of Allen will enter the industrial age.

Traditional agriculture can feed people, but industry can enhance the national strength of a country and make people rich.

Out of the metallurgical plant, Alan was working on another thing recently.

textile factory.

Textile industry, the leader in light industry.

Compared with the heavy industry of metallurgy, light industry is obviously more suitable for commercial development.

Allen has already inspected, and at the current position, the evolution point of this world is all on the extraordinary power.

For technology, agriculture, etc., there is basically not much research.

The reason why I say basic, rather than no research at all, is that there are always some special people in this world who are still working very hard on things within agriculture.

For example, the magic circle used for agriculture that Allen saw in Norton Kingdom before.

Although that thing is an extraordinary power, they use it in agriculture anyway.

It also helps a lot in agriculture.

But the textile industry is indeed an industry that has not been developed at all here.

At present, 25% of the clothes, cloth, etc. that flow on the bright surface are all made by hand.

This is undoubtedly a great waste of labor.

Also, the production efficiency is extremely low.

This is undoubtedly an opportunity for Allen.

In the Principality of Ellen, there are also some small traders who will sell all kinds of fabrics, but most of them are coarse linen cloth, and the real silk and satin is extremely rare.

Especially those nobles that Allen saw, their clothing styles and fabrics could not be called Allen’s serious silk and satin, but they were better than coarse cloth and linen.

If Ellen can make textiles, silk or something.

Allen thought it must be a big deal.

He didn’t plan to do this before, because he had a small site, not enough manpower, and not enough time, so he didn’t develop other industries besides agriculture at all.

Except for the three major factories.

“According to the current progress, the iron car is officially opened, but it is only the first railway.” Of course, Allen could not only build one railway.

As the saying goes, if you want to get rich, you have to build roads first.

Just like Allen built a commercial road before.

At that time, there were no conditions, and only commercial roads could be built. Now, the importance of railways is higher than that of commercial roads.

Ellen couldn’t give up.

“Money, it’s still a problem. Most of the money from the beast spirit grass and the three major factories is invested in industry. Textile factories in light industry also need gold coins.”

Allen sighed, why every time he thinks that he has enough money to squander, he always finds that there is not enough money?

In fact, it is not that the money is not enough, but that Allen is developing rapidly.

His country had left the other principalities far behind.

Any aspect, whether financial or military.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Duchy of Allen could crush two or three duchies at the same time.

A principality with dragon knights, this national strength is also the top in the mainland.

In just half a year, Allen has developed the duchy from a mess at the beginning to what it is now, because there are a lot of gold coins as support.

The rapid consumption of gold coins has also become a headache for Bilu every once in a while.

Because the Duchy of Ellen is investing in many things at the same time.

“However, it must be spent if it is still spent. Only with investment can there be harvests. Things like textile factories can bring me huge profits.”

Ellen is not an indecisive figure either, he makes up his mind quickly.

Open up the textile industry!

In this case, a large number of people can be terminated. For these people, Allen has other ideas.

As Allen mused, Edward’s butler told him that Jackson had requested an audience with the Archduke.

Allen immediately let Jackson in, and today should be the day Jackson and Tasmiz meet again.

Three months have passed, Tasmiz has become a complete adult, and he has a certain tacit understanding with Jackson. Of course, this steel dragon still likes Alan a little more. For it, Alan is like a father. The same great existence.

“Grand Duke!”

After Jackson entered the study, he knelt in front of Allen and saluted.

Allen nodded, and he looked at Jackson in front of him. At this moment, Jackson’s breath was no different from that of an ordinary eighth-level knight, but under Allen’s eyes, his true cultivation was invisible.

“The peak of the ninth level, Jackson, do you feel a breakthrough?”

Alan looked at Jackson and said.

“Grand Duke, I’m here today for this matter.”

There was some joy on Jackson’s face.

“Thanks to the high-level Dou Qi Cheats and Sanctuary Knight’s Manual given to me by the Grand Duke, I know how to break through the Sanctuary. Without these things and the support of the Grand Duke, I think even if I reach the ninth level, I will not be able to become a Sanctuary for the rest of my life. .”

Jackson was very emotional, and he was very grateful to Allen.

As he said, if you want to break through the sanctuary, you need some special knowledge and secret techniques.

These methods are all secrets.

If there is no special secret method, even if the cultivation reaches the peak of the ninth level, there is absolutely no way to enter the sanctuary.

It’s like an ordinary person standing in front of the bronze giant door, without a key, it is absolutely impossible to enter the door.

And this kind of secret method, Allen found that he had a lot of it in the library.

Yes, more often than not, on a bookshelf on the second floor, full of bookshelves, Jackson chose the most suitable one for his secret practice.

Now it appears to have paid off.

“Looking at your appearance, there is a sign of a breakthrough?!”

Alan was slightly surprised, originally he thought this process would take longer. “It’s the Grand Duke of 893. I felt that omen yesterday.”

Jackson said with a smile: “If it wasn’t for the need to hide my strength, I should have been able to break through yesterday.” “That’s really good news, Jackson, you will be the second dragon knight in our duchy.”

Allen stood up, walked to Jackson and patted his shoulder: “In that case, it’s not too late, let’s prepare first and go to a hidden place to help you break through.” Now that Allen has decided to hide everything except himself other Dragon Knights, then he would never allow Jackson to break through in full view. “Yes Archduke, it’s all up to your arrangement.” Jackson calmed down after being excited. Allen had told him before that unless he had to, or when the time was right, he would never show his strength in front of anyone even if he became a dragon knight.

This is definitely an impossible condition for ordinary knights to complete.

After all, a strong man who can become a dragon knight, what they need is a high profile, what they need is honor and status.

But Jackson didn’t rely on himself to become the Dragon Knight, he relied on Allen, and he was extremely loyal to Allen.

Since Allen asked him to hide his strength, he would hide it very seriously. .
