Alien Arms Empire

 Chapter 228 228 Troubles of Plagiarism

 As time goes by, Datang Group’s T cars have begun to enter more and more people’s lives.

The streets and alleys began to become congested, and something called a traffic light began to appear on the streets of Bunas.

Police also began to direct traffic, which has become a new part of their work. The busy city is filled with strong and energetic forces.

This is like New York in the United States in the 1950s. It was developing rapidly and people were very confident. They bravely tried all kinds of new things and were full of hope for their lives.

 Compared with here, other places in the world are backward, dark, ignorant and even hopeless.

This is a beacon to the world, illuminating the future direction of development around the world - politicians from many nearby kingdoms will come to visit Bunas to learn how to develop cities.

Those who are familiar with Bunas know an open secret. The real center of Bunas is not the city hall in the city, but the factory area in the north of Bunas.

 There is a huge conference and office building here, and the people in this building are the ones who decide the future development direction of Bunas.

At this moment, Tang Mo is hosting a development meeting in the conference building in the factory area. With the development of time, Datang Group's products have attracted more and more people's attention, so the focus of development also needs to be adjusted in time.

Because weapons and equipment are limited by production capacity, they have not actually created more profits for Datang Group. Today's Datang Group's main source of profit is the civilian industry.

 This is also an inevitable development. Although the arms industry is incredibly profitable, its profit scale is too small.

 In other words, other aspects of the Datang Group have developed too rapidly: the entire group has participated in mining companies in countries such as the Kingdom of Leyte, the Kingdom of Sussus, and the Kingdom of Dorne, and has continuously increased the scale of its holdings by providing machinery.

As the production capacity of these mines increases, the value of these mines continues to increase, which causes the value of Datang Group to continue to expand.

 Such an expansion rate is unmatched by the stable production of mines controlled by Cyric in the past. Because they were unable to increase mine production, they were unable to continuously increase the value of their shares.

ˆ With the concept of value-added, the profits from the shares Tang Mo's group held in its hands became very scary.

According to the calculations and statistics of Datang Group's own accounting department, in the past three months, the total value of Datang Group's assets has exceeded 50 million gold coins. This number is even higher than Tang Mo's own estimate.

 I think back when Tang Mo wanted to sell his business to Sirik, the asking price was not that high. Perhaps the Cyric Consortium, who knew all this, would regret it.

 In addition to profits in this area, Datang Group's oil refinery has also begun to make profits. Coupled with the sales of automobiles, it may become a new profit growth point for Datang Group in the future.

Tang Mo certainly knows how huge the automobile industry will be in the future. As long as he maintains his technological leadership, he will soon become the world's largest automobile company.

According to estimates from another world he is familiar with, Datang Group will be able to sell more than 20 million cars a year in the future!

If this slightly modest figure can be achieved, then the market value of Datang Group's automobile branch may exceed that of the entire Datang Group.

Tang Mo knows that arms companies, automobile companies, and shipping companies are not actually the most profitable departments of Datang Group.

 Because he is already running two more profitable branches - one is Datang Bank and the other is Datang Medicine.

Unsurprisingly, Datang Group will also build the world’s first airline, the first computer hardware company, and the first communications company…

In short, his group may control the technological development of the entire world in the future, and all of these will complement each other and build his Datang Group into an unbreakable super enterprise.

Harry doesn’t know Tang Mo’s complete development plan. As the manager of the group, he is most worried about the job he is doing now.

 So he spoke first and mentioned the latest thing: "The special envoys from the Pinewood Kingdom have arrived in Bunas. They came on the Bunas 5 and are very interested in this new type of warship."

Tang Mo decided to dig a hole for the Yangmu Kingdom more than a month ago, so when he sent a warship to Nanshui, he sent many Dandelions with the ship to the neighboring countries of the Yangmu Kingdom. These dandelions carried out a series of activities there, which finally moved the hearts of coastal kingdoms such as the Pinewood Kingdom, and sent envoys to Bunas to purchase new weapons to arm themselves and resist the greedy invasion of the Poplar Kingdom.

Matthews smiled. He had seen the Bunas-class battleship and also participated in the construction of some of its equipment. Naturally, he was very confident in what he had built: "No one would refuse to buy an advanced battleship. Especially since this kind of warship also has a complete power system and telegraph machine..."

"Our orders have been scheduled for four months. We have no choice. We don't have enough production capacity. We can only watch the money there and not make any money." Tang Mo smiled mockingly.

"They are here to pay. They plan to purchase 5 heavy machine guns, 10,000 needle guns, 400 lever rifles and 3,000 revolvers. The procurement plan for these weapons also includes corresponding equipment, ammunition, and usage training." Harry handed Tang Mo a record and reported a series of the other party's purchase list.

 “And…” After Harry finished speaking, he seemed to remember something.

"What?" Tang Mo took the list and asked while flipping through it.

Harry immediately replied: "And they have accepted the advice of our liaison staff and are ready to hire our commanders, train their troops, and help their troops learn more advanced fighting methods."

"Just based on the deceit of those few students?" Tang Mo couldn't believe it. He had confidence in the Dandelions, but he really didn't expect that they would succeed at any time.

Leo on the side explained the reason: "Actually, the news that we defeated Cyric in Bunas has spread. Many countries are very interested in us, at least in our products. "

With the end of the Battle of Bunas and the expansion of the Three Kings Alliance, the news of the tragic defeat of the Cyric Consortium also spread to distant places.

 The name of the Datang Group has appeared in many kingdoms, and the first-generation revolvers produced by the Datang Group have even appeared in the black markets of some countries.

"The envoy from the Yangmu Kingdom has been waiting here for five days. It is obvious that the other party has seriously considered paying back the money." Harry continued.

Fitral, the special envoy of the Yangmu Kingdom, has always wanted to see Tang Mo, but he has never been successful. After he and his deputy sent the telegram to Nanshui, they could only wait for domestic decisions, so the negotiations were suspended.

 Although their negotiations have been suspended, negotiations with envoys or commissioners from other countries are still ongoing.

Soon, the two elves from the Poplar Kingdom heard the news and heard the news that the Pinewood Kingdom’s envoys had also arrived in Bunas.

 But it was useless for them to be anxious. They could only wait. Without instructions from the country, they could not decide on such a huge matter as to the ownership of 14 million gold coins.

"Shouldn't they consider repaying the money? It's only natural to pay back debts." Tang Mo said matter-of-factly.

Harry smiled and said to Tang Mo: "What you said is true, but...if we don't have warships lying in their outer waters, they probably won't consider paying back the money."

"They will definitely consider paying back the money. Even if we don't have warships, they will pay back the money, because if they don't pay back, I will arm the Pinewood Kingdom and let the Yangmu Kingdom see what despair means." Tang Mo also laughed. He stood up and made everyone in the meeting laugh with his words.

After everyone had laughed enough, Harry continued to introduce the business: "Dorn and Sussus, including some kingdoms further away, all hope to purchase wireless telegraph machines, and some people hope to purchase them on a large scale. Some cars...probably, 400."

 In fact, the sales volume of automobiles cannot increase, mainly due to the constraints of gasoline production. Currently, the gasoline produced in Longdao can basically only meet the gasoline consumption in Bunas and Longdao.

Leo Ao reported to Tang Mohui: "They are eager to obtain these new technologies, and many countries are interested in our wireless telegraphy technology."

"Not only the country, but also the feedback from the intelligence system shows that Cyric has developed their motor and copied the incandescent lamp... but the quality is simply appalling." As a production manager, Parker finally dared to do this kind of thing. The occasion spoke up.

People will always make progress. Two years ago, he was just a blacksmith, a worker who could drill out a gun barrel in about two days... But now, he manages Tang Mo's arms factory, with more than 25,000 workers!

"This is inevitable. After all, there is no patent law in this world to protect our patented inventions. So if the other party wants to copy our technology, there must be a way." Tang Mo is also a little bit concerned about this state of being copied casually. Speechless.

  After all, the technologies he has developed are all step-by-step and are not much more advanced than the technologies mastered in this era. Therefore, opponents always seem to be able to copy some of the products and follow Datang Group's lead in drinking soup or even eating meat.

"We can't stop the other party from copying our technology. We can only restrict their development in technology that the other party can't copy." So Tang Mo could only think of some ways to delay the opponent from chasing him as much as possible: "And , We need to set up barriers to technology monopoly and technology that they cannot copy in a short period of time, so that those who want to copy our technology can think clearly before cheating. "
