Chapter 580: Outer s.p.a.ce plan
Chu Tian and Jin Luo left the Transport Point.
Jin Luo finally saw the legendary Miracle City.
Miracle City"s prosperity did not lose to West Sea City"s. The most important thing was that although Miracle City and West Sea City were both trade centers, West Sea City relied on ships to trade and Miracle City traded through s.p.a.ce, so the two couldn"t be compared.
Jin Luo had studied the information on Miracle City and she knew that Miracle City"s spatial trade far surpa.s.sed any kind of business in this world. Miracle City"s Miracle Shopping Center was built by Meng Qingwu"s group and now it spread to many different cities in the Forest of Chaos. No matter what product it was, it could be instantly transported.
Miracle City did not need large caravans or fleets of ships, they just needed to build large amounts of s.p.a.ce Warehouses, connecting them together with spatial technology. This made spatial distance meaningless, raising efficiency to its max and lowering costs to its minimum.
Since Vivian built the first s.p.a.ce Warehouse in the Southern Summer Country, Miracle Commerce now had over a thousand s.p.a.ce Warehouses, while also building three-five more each day. Among those, 70% of them were for Miracle Commerce"s use and the other 30% were open warehouses, giving them to their partners or giving them to civilians to use.
Under Miracle Commerce"s production minister Meng Yingying, Miracle Commerce"s factories were entering the third generation. The first two generations were the normal factories and the intelligent factories, but now Miracle Commerce was gradually eliminating their normal factories and increasing their number of intelligent factories. The third generation factories were spatial intelligent factories.
The spatial intelligent factory had many superiorities over the normal factories.
For example, in some of Miracle Commerce"s priority production bases, there were factories that were reaching the spatial intelligence level. The entire factory no longer needed to ship materials because the factory"s warehouse was a s.p.a.ce Warehouse. The ores were mined, refined, and processed before finally being sent to the factory to create the product. The removal of waste products and transport of finished products were all embedded into the process.
The entire process was completed by the s.p.a.ce Warehouse and the Smart Brain!
This was the power of Miracle Commerce.
West Sea City? This kind of sea shipping was slow, risky, and wasted a lot of resources. The only superiority it had over spatial transport was that it could transport living beings and the transport size it had was very big. Therefore, it was suited to transporting short or medium distances, or transporting living or cheap materials.
In addition to this natural mercantile advantage, Miracle Bank also sat in the middle. With the Forest Alliance established, there would only be one economical, financial, and political center in the future, Miracle City!
Chu Tian and Jin Luo did have some confrontation, but it wasn"t anything too severe. Jin Luo had secretly let him go which Chu Tian was grateful to her about, therefore Chu Tian introduced Jin Luo to each part of Miracle City and took care of her living arrangements, "Don"t go back to West Sea City for now. There are water and mountains here, so I can promise life is richer than in West Sea City!"
Miracle City was an incredible scene that already overwhelmed Jin Luo, "This city is even more amazing than I imagined."
"Of course, don"t you see whose city it is?" Chu Tian said to Jin Luo, "If you want to live in Miracle City, there are some things that need to be prepared. Such as the citizen card or the cell phone."
Jin Luo was stunned, "Citizen card?"
"This is the identification of Miracle City"s people. Every citizen"s information is stored and the spiritual energy lock can"t be forged, therefore everyone has their own ident.i.ty. The citizen card has many uses, like setting up a Miracle Bank account. When you eat, shop, or have fun in Miracle City or the Forest Alliance cities, you don"t need any source stones and can just use your exclusive citizen card."
Jin Luo nodded.
That was really convenient.
"This cell phone is a communication device, it is something necessary for anyone with a bit of status in Miracle City. It gathers many functions together and it can access Miracle City"s information network, directly using the cell phone to buy the newest Miracle Shopping Center products!"
Miracle City"s cell phone had already matured after a long period of development.
The current latest developed cell phone not only had the latest Yun Sect research, it also had a faster processing speed, a larger storage, and better connection. With the system the elves had developed, there were more and more things it could do.
Chu Tian brought Jin Luo to the young miss and explained everything to the young miss.
The young miss was very surprised by Jin Luo"s ident.i.ty, but she could tell Jin Luo"s value. First Jin Luo was the Deep Blue Empire"s princess and now that she was in Miracle City, it was a form of restraint for West Sea City. This was a very important person.
"This is princess Jin Luo"s first time in Miracle City, naturally we have to properly welcome her." The young miss called Vivian over and said to her, "It"s been hard on you during this time building the s.p.a.ce fortress in the Purgatory World, so you can take a long break. Go and play with princess Jin Luo."
Vivian loved to play. With this kind of cushy job falling on her, naturally she was filled wth joy, "Big sister Jin Luo, come with me. I promise you"ll love Miracle City."
The two of them left the City Lord"s Fort.
The young miss looked at Chu Tian with a fierce glare, "You went to West Sea City and you came back with the Mermaid Princess!"
Chu Tian kept protesting, "Young miss, this was purely an accident."
"Alright, we won"t talk about this. With City Lord Bo Sha"s words and promise, as well as princess Jin Luo in Miracle City, we don"t need to worry about the threat of West Sea City." Meng Qingwu looked quite a bit relaxed as the stone in her heart finally fell down, "The Forest Alliance can focus on dealing with the Subterranean and Purgatory Worlds, there is nothing else to worry about. With the four giants working together, no matter how strong the Subterranean World is, they can"t overturn the Forest Alliance."
There was no doubt there.
"These Subterranean spirit insects can"t defeat the Forest Alliance, but with the constant pestering from them, it will cause quite a bit of trouble for the Forest Alliance." Chu Tian said this before suddenly stopping, "I don"t want harmful insects wreaking havoc in our territory, so I suggest we completely eradicate them. Only then will the Forest Alliance be able to peacefully develop!"
"Completely eradicate them?" It wasn"t that Meng Qingwu hadn"t thought of this before, "It"s too hard. The Subterranean World is too far from the surface and our armies cannot reach them, so we can only pa.s.sively defend."
"That"s not certain, we should make a s.p.a.ce Gate!"
Meng Qingwu"s face froze hearing this.
Meng Qingwu had long heard Chu Tian mention this s.p.a.ce Gate. The s.p.a.ce Gate was not that different from a Transport Tower, but the Transport Tower was for transporting a single person whereas the s.p.a.ce Gate was for transporting groups. The former was simple and had a low cost, the latter was complicated and expensive to build.
"A s.p.a.ce Gate array will cost at least a hundred Eyes of the Star!" Meng Qingwu revealed a hurt expression, "You know that even if we spend all of our stored Eyes of the Star, it would only barely be enough to make one. If these Eyes of the Star are used to create Transport Towers, it would be greatly beneficial to the development of our Forest Alliance!"
Chu Tian said with a faint smile, "As long as we can solve the thorn in front of usa, what is a little price like this? Our technology keeps developing and we"ll be able to mine Eyes of the Star in the future."
Meng Qingwu was in a bit of disbelief, "Eyes of the Star can"t be found, how will you mine it?"
Chu Tian laughed, "Young miss, young miss, there are times when you aren"t smart."
Meng Qingwu glared at him and kept asked, "Speak, what are you planning to do?" Eyes of the Star were very important to Miracle Commerce. Right now Miracle Commerce had limited ways to find Eyes of the Star, they could only search ruins or buy them from clans at high prices. The quant.i.ty was limited and it wasn"t enough to support this large array at all.
The value of Transport Towers for Miracle City was too big!
If Chu Tian could produce Eyes of the Star in large amounts, Miracle Commerce"s influence could charge out of the Forest of Chaos. They could spread to every corner of the continent and spread their influence everyday!
Chu Tian didn"t hide anything, "Where do Eyes of the Star come from? Isn"t it the stars in the sky! The Eyes of the Star we"ve found on the ground all came from meteors that landed on the continent, so they are very rare. Then as long as we"re capable of it, why don"t we break through the sky into outer s.p.a.ce and open an outer s.p.a.ce mine for Miracle Commerce!"
Outer s.p.a.ce mine?
Outer s.p.a.ce mine!
Meng Qingwu"s beautiful eyes instantly lit up. That"s right, why didn"t she think of it? Miracle Commerce didn"t have the technology to create an outer s.p.a.ce mine before because their airships and demon beasts couldn"t charge into outer s.p.a.ce, but now it was different. Miracle Commerce had more and more tools, even powerful airships. With their powerful engines, why couldn"t they charge into outer s.p.a.ce?
Chu Tian revealed a faint smile, "How about it? Am I a genius?"
"Stop boasting!" Meng Qingwu rolled her eyes at him before saying, "Only you can make the s.p.a.ce Gate and my mind"s already stretched out, so who will be responsible for the outer s.p.a.ce mine project?"
"Have Vivian do it and set Jin Luo as her a.s.sistant!" Chu Tian had already thought it through, "Once they finish playing, just give this task to them. Once Vivian hears about flying outer s.p.a.ce, she"ll be filled with excitement with her personality. As for Jin Luo? Have her see Miracle Commerce"s abilities because it"s not only important for the Forest Alliance to win over West Sea City, it is also very important to me. I"ve already promised that I would hold a wedding ceremony for Yingying in West Sea City."
"You still have some conscience!" Meng Qingwu"s eyes sparkled for a second. She nodded as she looked at Chu Tian, speaking in a voice of approval, "You did pretty good this time. You didn"t fall to the enticement of the Mermaid Princess and didn"t fall in West Sea City, I will praise you in front of Yingying!"
Look who"s talking.
Chu Tian helplessly shrugged his shoulders.
