Chapter 1272: Chapter 720, Wang’s Trading Company
Jason Morgan’s various tactics in the Fox Moon Star Domain are essentially about dividing the pie.
That’s certainly important, as the benefits of productivity should be controlled by the Alliance. Otherwise, it would fall back into the inefficient bureaucratic system of the Empire. How could the Alliance pool resources to accomplish major tasks? How could it collect enough taxes to satisfy the Empire while still having the capacity to develop the local economy?
However, merely dividing the pie is not enough.
While understanding the situation in the Fox Moon Star Domain and pacifying various forces, Jason Morgan also did not forget about enlarging the pie.
Development is the fundamental goal.
In this regard, he also possesses a unique advantage: Jindi Star and the Steel Fire Dragon Star Sector.
The two are essentially one and the same.
He has worked in the Steel Fire Dragon Star Sector for many years, and its development is inseparable from the Mingyang Sect. He has made numerous trips to Jindi Star, making many friends and personally negotiating many collaborations.
These tactics can also be employed in Fox Moon.
Negotiating cooperation from Jindi Star is somewhat far-fetched due to the distance; however, Alamita is not too far away, and discussions are possible.
Furthermore, it involves obtaining some industries that overflow technically and are moved out from the Steel Fire Dragon Star Sector.
This is something the central Alliance has been encouraging and promoting.
The core regions of the Alliance focus on high-value production and industry upgrades. The obsolete capacities naturally need a place to be accommodated. Forcing the core regions to continue these tasks is not advisable. Even if some can’t enter high-end industries, transitioning them into service or ancillary industries is more reasonable.
Leveraging his identity as a former ’old leader’ of the Steel Fire Dragon Star Sector, he can smoothly absorb the overflowing production lines from there.
Several industries can be transported to the Fox Moon Star Domain.
He has already decided to build a new industrial center in the southernmost Nine Women Star District of the Fox Moon Star Domain.
Nine Women has a natural geographical advantage, being relatively close to Alfonso’s Alamita Casting World in the south. In the past, it undertook considerable resource processing and served as a supplier for Alfonso’s three casting worlds.
This means that the Nine Women Star District actually already has a certain industrial base.
The industries Jason transferred from the Steel Fire Dragon Star Sector require an industrial base to develop properly.
The most valuable among them is the production technology for some general components for Titan;
This includes not only the introduction of the production line but also a complete set of technical specifications, which means that if the industrial base is solid, this production line can be expanded.
These Titan components hold significant value for the Alamita Casting World.
Just this one industry can immediately provide jobs for millions; around the tens of thousands working in high-value production, a series of ancillary processing industries, energy industries, and service industries can be spawned… The entire planet would benefit.
As the production line expands later, the industrial radiation effect will be even stronger.
Of course, this is just one of the production lines transferred from the Steel Fire Dragon Star Sector. There are others, which, although not as technologically advanced, are quite suitable for the industrial base of the Nine Women Star District and for working for Alamita.
Doing contract work for the Founding World is a development path Jason Morgan has taken before, so he is quite familiar with it.
However, relying solely on a Titan components manufacturing industry is definitely not enough to support the development of an entire Star Sector.
Jason’s goal is to develop the Nine Women Star District into a star industrial center within ten years.
Fortunately, his wife has been the principal of the Loyal Heir Academy in the central Alliance for many years, establishing quite reliable connections. As an experienced member of the Alliance, he also knows many people.
Combining both, he has also pulled in a major investment from the Alliance’s total project for supporting industries in the nine major Star Sectors of the Spiderweb Domain: a Camel-class civilian transport ship production line.
The Camel-class is not particularly large, a bit bigger than a Flying Pig, but much smaller than a Whale class. It’s not a warship, so its production value is not extremely high.
Nevertheless, a civilian ship is still a Starship!
The shipbuilding industry, as a final industry, is an absolute heavy manufacturing industry, and it possesses the most representative feature of a final industry—massive integrative power.
From raw materials to industrial processing, then to the energy industry and under vast employment, various consumer goods industries, and service industries… everything will take off.
Even the Camel-class, a not particularly large civilian transport ship, is priced at fifty million per vessel.
As long as the annual production rate yields a few ships, the impact is already considerable.
Directly using them for tax payments is possible;
If there is a surplus, they can be collected to develop the civil aviation industry, serve as merchant ships, expand the fleet scale of the local Star Domain, and accelerate the circulation of goods within the Star Domain, greatly facilitating overall economic development.
The ships carrying the related technical blueprints and equipment are about to arrive.
Jason Morgan, as well as many locals in the Fox Moon Star Domain, are eagerly anticipating it.
Jason also knows that the fleet responsible for transporting this equipment comes from the second-largest commercial firm within the Alliance—Wang’s Trading Company.
Its scale is second only to the Gu Commercial Firm.
In fact, it was once part of the Gu Commercial Firm, receiving significant investment from it.
It possesses dozens of fleets, tirelessly transporting supplies and personnel to frontline troops during wartime. In peacetime, it maintains trades between the Alliance and the outside world, earning capital. Currently, it also shoulders the responsibility of transporting industrial relocations.
More importantly, Jason Morgan has heard that this convoy, passing through the Fox Moon Star Domain, is particularly large and is not solely for transporting equipment and technology to the Fox Moon, but will also bring along many materials and take away many materials. After passing through the Fox Moon Star Domain, it will head north and ultimately complete a trade with the Star Devouring Cosmos.
The trading partner is the renowned ’Infinite Starfield’. The Aote 500 Stars have been a shining achievement in the history of the Human Empire. It was once home to the largest Infinite Legion during the legion era. Although the legion is now disbanded, the founding Battle Group, the Infinite Corps, still protects this Star Domain with Aote Star as its home planet.
The Infinite Starfield is located southwest of the Star Devouring Cosmos and is also part of the Empire’s Eastern Frontier. The distance from the Superlimit Domain to the northern Spiderweb Domain is not particularly far. While it crosses the Star Devouring Cosmos, it doesn’t require traversing the entire region. It can simply enter from the southwestern corner.
They have come to do business with the Alliance, naturally at the behest of the Infinite Corps.
During the last war, a company of the Infinite Corps was saved by the Alliance, fought side by side throughout the entire war, and formed a friendship.
This trade serves as a testament to that friendship.
To show sincerity, the convoy dispatched by Wang’s Trading Company for this occasion is led by a prominent figure—Madame Wang Jiarong.
As the head of Wang’s Trading Company and the cousin of Governor Gu, she is the most prestigious person that could be dispatched from the Alliance to travel such a long distance.
Jason Morgan also has a little plan in mind.
He hopes to meet with Wang Jiarong. It doesn’t need to be long, just a chat for ten minutes would suffice. With a little help from her, he can be well-nourished financially.
