Nan Feng Standing at the edge of the newly built deep-water port, facing the slightly salty sea breeze, he looked down at the brand new seaport city in front of him.
Looking at the neat rows of shops, the wide and smooth bluestone road, and the large maritime auction house in the distance that was beginning to take shape, a glimmer of admiration flashed through Nan Feng's heterochromatic eyes.
Nan Feng is still very satisfied with the terrifying efficiency shown by the Heaven Dou Imperial Family and Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
According to his original estimate, to transform Purple Pearl Island, a rotten pirate slum, into a modern port that meets the standards of a trade zone today, no matter how abundant the funds are, it will take at least three to five years of hard work to build infrastructure.
But he obviously still underestimated the feudal empire's ability to concentrate its efforts on big things, and the terrifying nature of Soul Master as the top productivity in this world.
In just one year, with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's huge "money capacity" and Heaven Dou Imperial Family's powerful schedule, this overseas island was suddenly transformed into the prototype of a large-scale commercial port!
"Now that the hardware facilities have been set up, it's the software's turn to operate."
Nan Feng turned his attention to the merchant ships flying the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda flag in the port berthing area. "The next time will be Ning Fengzhi's home court."
For this island to officially start large-scale trade now, it needs to attract chambers of commerce from all over the mainland to settle in, it needs to establish a complete bank and warehousing industry, and it needs to formulate extremely cumbersome commodity transaction tax rates and commission ratios...
Nan Feng unceremoniously took over all these delicate business operations that were extremely labor-intensive and handed them over to Ning Fengzhi for full control.
After all, he is the helmsman of the world's number one chamber of commerce, recognized throughout the continent, so leaving such top-notch free labor unused would be a real waste of resources.
As for Purple Pearl Island's own internal development, public security management and the implementation progress of the special zone plan, Nan Feng has not left Zi Zhenzhu idle in the past half year.
He almost crammed a set of forward-looking trade zone management concepts into Zi Zhenzhu's mind.
Zi Zhenzhu Although this girl has a hot temper, is prone to getting angry, and still has some pirate spirit left in her bones, fortunately, her brain is indeed very bright and she learns things very quickly.
Although she still has not been able to fully understand the extremely advanced and advanced economic theories such as "macro-control", "trade deficit", "capital leverage" and so on that Nan Feng's mouth pops up from time to time, she has one greatest advantage - obedience!
Even if he doesn't understand those profound theories, Zi Zhenzhu can still follow the instructions perfectly.
Whatever Nan Feng plans, she will implement it; Nan Feng says how to set the rules, so she will take the knife and lead people to enforce the rules.
Now, Zi Zhenzhu, the absolutely obedient force enforcer, maintains order, and Ning Fengzhi, the cunning business veteran, is responsible for strategizing on the table.
Purple Pearl Island, we are fully prepared to start preliminary maritime trade!
With the Heaven Dou Imperial Family providing political endorsement behind the scenes, and Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the number one sect in the world, taking the lead in spending real money to enter the market.
There is no doubt that the snowball of maritime trade will soon get bigger and bigger at an extremely terrifying speed.
Once the maritime trade routes are opened and a huge hub of interests is established, the related ancillary industries such as shipbuilding, bodyguards, coastal inns and restaurants, will naturally grow and develop rapidly like bamboo shoots after a rain.
"Huh..."
Nan Feng stretched out comfortably, turned around and walked down the observation deck of the port.
As for how much Gold Soul Coin the subsequent trade zone can earn every day, how the chambers of commerce are wrangling due to interest disputes, and which routes need to be escorted by more manpower...
Of course, these extremely complicated and trivial matters are not issues that he Nan Feng should consider.
He is a chess player who sets the rules and directions. He is only responsible for giving the most grand and deadly strategic plan, and using absolute force to build this chessboard that can change the pattern of the continent.
As for how to fight on the chessboard, how to break your legs for a few gold coins...
That is what the subordinates and collaborators below should worry about and work hard for.
At the same time, Sea God Island is far away in the depths of the vast ocean.
The earth-shaking changes that Purple Pearl Island has undergone in the past year have naturally spread to this holy land protected by Sea God.
In fact, as early as a year ago, Sea God Island's intelligence network had captured Purple Pearl Island's unusual movements.
At the beginning, the intelligence network on Sea God Island only received the message: In the lawless land of Purple Pearl Island, a mysterious strong man with the name "Demon God Douluo" suddenly appeared out of thin air.
The opponent's strength was extremely terrifying, and he forcibly ruled the entire Purple Pearl Island with Thunderous Might's power. Even those desperate pirates who had always been unruly and drank blood were all incorporated.
Bo Saixi When he first learned of this news, he originally planned to send someone to beat and warn this uninvited guest.
After all, a considerable number of the residents on Purple Pearl Island are believers or their descendants who once walked out of Sea God Island. There are inextricably linked blood connections between the two islands.
If that foreign pinnacle expert acts recklessly and massacres in order to establish his power on Purple Pearl Island, Bo Saixi, as the spokesperson of Sea God in the world and the guardian of the sea, must not sit idly by and ignore it, both emotionally and rationally.
However, as follow-up information continued to be transmitted back, the development of the matter made the high priest who had lived for a long time completely unable to understand.
There was no river of blood, no cruel oppression.
Instead, there was a huge amount of construction materials and a huge capital injection comparable to the imperial treasury level;
It is crazy infrastructure that benefits every lower-class resident;
There are even a large number of high-level doctors from the mainland who have settled in to treat the islanders' illnesses and prepare medicine for free.
One by one, one by one, it sounds as dreamy as a fantasy!
At first, Bo Saixi firmly refused to believe this pie-in-the-sky nonsense.
In this Soul Master World, where the jungle is strong and the jungle is strong, how could there be a peerless strong man with nothing to do and go to a shabby pirate island to do this kind of pure charity?
In order to find out the truth, she personally dispatched Sea God Island's island-protecting sacred beast, the one hundred thousand year King of Demon Soul Great White Sharks "Xiao Bai", to lurk there and conduct close-range on-the-spot investigation.
However, the survey results brought back by Xiao Bai a few days later were even more shocking and incredible than the rumors Sea God Island had explored before.
Xiao Bai confirmed with his own eyes that Purple Pearl Island, this stinking lawless place that was originally controlled by pirates, has now been transformed into a modern seaport that is no less prosperous than the seven Sacred Pillar cities in Sea God Island in just one year!
The resettlement issue of the island residents that Bo Saixi is most concerned about has been perfectly solved, and everyone is actually living a stable life that is getting better and better day by day.
At the same time, Xiao Bai also brought back an extremely important piece of information: Purple Pearl Island's next ambitious goal is to be completely transformed into a "maritime trade zone" connecting the inland and the ocean!
These real changes are certainly a great thing, but there is one core problem that makes Bo Saixi puzzled and even feels a little ridiculous.
According to the information obtained by Xiao Bai, the mysterious "Demon God Douluo" claimed to be from Sea God Island!
The other party even swore that she was the "high priest Bo Saixi" and claimed that it was under her personal instructions that she went to the inland to find Heaven Dou Imperial Family to cooperate and single-handedly promoted the entire Purple Pearl Special Zone development plan!
"What the hell is going on..."
Bo Saixi frowned.
Who is this Demon God Douluo? Why do you act in the name of Sea God Island and her?
If the other party was using the guise of Sea God Island to burn, kill, loot and ruin the reputation of Sea God, then Bo Saixi would have personally crossed the sea and suppressed it at the bottom of the deep sea.
But the problem is that everything the other party has done is to actually help the residents of Purple Pearl Island, and to provide a way for the homeless people of the sea to survive.
This is a great thing and you can't fault it!
Since they are doing good deeds and building their own merits, why does the other party have to hide their merits and fame and forcibly use the name of Sea God Island and the high priest to use the tiger's skin as a banner?
Bo Saixi tried his best to figure out the machinations and logic involved.
Out of caution, she did not rashly send people to contact or expose the other party, but chose to stay put and wanted to observe for a while to see what this "Demon God Douluo" under her banner wanted to do.
However, this wait lasts for a whole year.
One year has passed. Not only has Purple Pearl Island not revealed any evil purpose, but it has developed better and better.
What's even more frightening is that as Purple Pearl Special Zone's reputation grows, more and more casual cultivators Sea Soul Master who were wandering alone and helpless at sea are frantically gathering towards Purple Pearl Island!
Originally there were only more than 500 Sea Soul Masters in Purple Pearl Island. After a year of snowballing development, the number of resident Sea Soul Masters has soared to thousands!
This is really an extremely terrifying armed force!
You know, even if Sea God Island has a profound foundation, the real number of Sea Soul Master on the island is only more than 3,000.
It only took Purple Pearl Island one year to raise a huge Soul Grandmaster army that was one-third the size of Sea God Island!
The permanent population of the island has exceeded the tens of thousands mark, and it has become a veritable "second pole" on this sea!
This time, Bo Saixi really couldn't sit still.
She must and was forced to take care of it.
She must personally figure out the other party's true origins, ultimate purpose, and the real reason why the other party is willing to spend all their money to use the name Sea God Island.
