Chapter 999: Strength in Numbers

Wu Lao didn't care about the others, but refused forcefully.

"Don't talk about 10 million kilograms of iron ore, you can't buy even 20 million kilograms of iron ore. You are really fooled by lard."

Wu Lao scolded the others for not living up to expectations.

The representative did not dare to neglect and rejected them directly.

"Wu Lao has rejected the other party. The representative of the Long family has stopped talking now."

After the representative said this, he walked to a seat next to him.

"Wu Lao, I don't know why you disagree with this matter. In terms of profit, we can earn 7 million kilograms of iron ore for no reason, and we can also obtain bomb-making methods."

A lieutenant general stood up.

He was a little angry.

Such a good opportunity to earn iron ore was abandoned by Wulao just now?

Many people also pricked up their ears and wanted to hear what Wulao had to say.

With such firm opposition just now, maybe Wu Lao really knows something?

The fifth elder glanced down, the skinny old man stood up and said in a deep voice.

"I know that many of you are dissatisfied and feel that the world government has lost seven million catties of iron ore, or even more."

There was a pause.

The skinny old man saw that most of the people below had expressions of 'that's it', and he smiled.

"The layout is too small!"

"You only know how to make a small profit, but you don't know that the method of making bombs is more valuable than you think."

below.

When everyone heard this, their eyes showed a hint of suspicion.

How to make a bomb...more valuable than we thought?

Now the most valuable part of bomb making method is to make bombs and sell iron ore. This is the reason why bombs are valuable.

Anything else?

The skinny old man was very satisfied with everyone's curious looks, paused and said: "In this situation, as long as we can maximize the benefits of the bomb, that's what we should do."

"Rather than messing up the bomb-making methods like you do, how will we be able to tell who is who?"

"And... bombs, a big killer, are naturally in the hands of a few people. Otherwise, how can we stand out?"

Everyone pondered this statement carefully and found that... it seemed to make sense.

If they sell the bomb-making method for 10 million jins of iron ore, they will earn 7 million jins of iron ore and the bomb-making method for free.

On the surface, they made money.

but.

Just by spreading the bomb-making method, their status will naturally be damaged, as well as the stores in the World Channel and so on.

These are hidden disadvantages.

If the other party breaks their promises any more, spread the bomb-making method to others.

At that time, there are one million people in the entire sky island world, and a total of 500,000 people will be able to make bombs.

By then.

No matter how precious their bomb-making methods are, they will naturally become devalued if they become widespread.

but……

A lieutenant general suddenly thought of a counterargument.

"Wulao, even if we don't sell it to them, sooner or later they will develop a real bomb. It's better to sell the thing so that you can make the last profit when the bomb is about to become useless."

The lieutenant general suggested to let everyone calm down.

really.

Even if their World Government does not sell it, there is no guarantee that other forces will. The method of making bombs is not only owned by the World Government, but also by the 3333 Empire and the Merchant Alliance.

Perhaps, add two horses.

It’s just that we don’t know whether the two horses are alive or dead.

By then, if they don't sell it, the other party will find other forces. By then, the stuff will not be spread out, and they won't get anything out of it.

The skinny old man was not angry when he heard the rebuttal, he just said calmly.

"Since we are worried about the bomb-making method being widely circulated, why don't we prevent him from being widely circulated?"

A flash of inspiration!

Some people heard this and didn't know why.

Some people heard this and fell into deep thought.

Some people clapped their hands when they heard this.

"I admire the five wise men."

A major general stood up and cupped his hands with admiration in his eyes.

He had not thought of this. If Wulao hadn't reminded him, his thoughts would not have moved in this direction at all.

Their thoughts are.

Since the method of making bombs will be exposed sooner or later, it is better to try it now and make a large number of bombs.

Now I heard that someone bought a bomb-making method, and when they saw the high price, they quickly sold it. I just wanted to make as much money as possible before the bomb spread widely.

But.

What if the bomb hadn't spread?

Why has it always been in the hands of their three major forces without being known by others?

In this case, wouldn't this be a cash cow?

As for how to prevent the bomb-making method from being spread... Wu Lao naturally thought of a way.

That is to gather the three major forces and suppress or kill all those who want to study bomb making methods.

Anyway, the other party is not allowed to study bombs.

This way.

The bomb-making method is their cash cow and will never collapse. Where there are people, there must be war.

certainly.

The three major forces don’t feel like enough.

The entire sky island world now has about one million people, with no more than three million at most.

But the three major forces combined did not even have 10,000 people.

One million versus ten thousand... This is not martial arts. Except for generals, few people can fight one against two.

The gap is too big.

Perhaps we can also bring in some new forces... The skinny old man thought of this as he was talking.

This plan was naturally what he thought of.

Inspired by the ancient book burning, he wanted to make the people ignorant.

Of course.

This is just another form, so that others can no longer produce bombs, which can also reduce some wars, which is also a good thing.

Headquarters building.

It was not until a long time later that some people finally understood.

"The five elders are wise, and we are foolish. We coveted this little profit and almost ruined the five elders' plan."

"Yes, we never thought that we could do this. In this way, can't we continue to use the bomb-making method to make a lot of profits?"

"This is simply a stroke of genius. If it were me, I would never think of this plan."

"However, the only thing this plan requires is that we must be strong and prestigious. A big stick and a sweet date can make those who covet the bomb-making method dare not be greedy anymore."

"That makes sense, but we can now unite the Merchant Alliance and the 3333 Empire. If it doesn't work out, we can sell the bomb-making method to others. In this way, we can earn iron ore and bring in an ally to resist together."

"..."

Above.

The five elders looked at the people discussing below and nodded.

As long as they told these people the plan, they could improve the plan themselves, which is why the five elders said it.

There is strength in numbers!
