Chapter 1427 Labor Depreciation
"Three-Bow Bed Crossbow and City Defense Crossbow..."
After Zhou Xu's reply, Peter's eyes lit up.
According to Zhou Xu's statement, they failed to bid this time, and the individual crossbows were out of stock in a short period of time. However, considering that they did have several pleasant transactions and had a certain friendship, if they wanted, he could make an exception to sell them a batch of three-bow bed crossbows and city defense crossbows.
According to the current situation, just fighting against the size of the crossbow soldiers, he would definitely not be able to compete with the Smith Party headed by Fisher.
This also shows in disguise that once the two troops confront each other head-on, their Rakshasa Republican troops are likely to be no opponent of the other.
Peter's original idea was to expand the scale of the crossbow troops under his command, thereby enhancing their deterrence, making Fisher dare not act rashly.
But once they take action, their chances of winning are still 30% in the current form, with the Rakshasa Republican Party accounting for 30%, and the Smith Party led by Fisher account for 70%.
After all, unlike the situation at that time, Fisher had to worry about the external trouble of Green Skin.
Now, the green skin has been completely wiped out, and the royal city has been put back into the control of Fisher.
This is also the fundamental reason why when he discussed with Gilter before, Gilter directly started the topic based on the premise of defensive battles.
If they want to compete for the 30% chance of winning, they have to rely on defensive battles to stabilize their position, and then see if they can find a chance to turn defeat into victory.
Not to mention the three-bow crossbow, the city defense crossbow undoubtedly attracted Peter's attention at the first time.
According to the brief introduction attached to Zhou Xu in the letter, this city defense crossbow can be said to be quite in line with their next tactical needs.
During the period, Gilter arrived soon. Peter handed the letter directly to Gilter and asked him about his opinion on the city crossbow.
"I think it's okay. The military strength of the Great Zhou Dynasty does not need to be doubted. The individual crossbows sold to us before are also of high quality."
At this point, Gilt paused.
"And we can now reach a long-term trading cooperation with Dazhou. As long as we can maintain this relationship well, Dazhou can obtain stable labor and resources from us."
"From this point, Dazhou does not need to trick us into things."
Enjoy Gilt's simple analysis, Peter nodded and agreed.
"At the same time, unlike individual equipment such as single-handed crossbows, the city defense crossbow and the three-bow bed crossbow are both large-scale weapons and strategic equipment. According to the Zhou Emperor's intention, these were originally not within the scope of the transaction. Now if you have the chance, please buy them first!"
"Everything is needed for the city defense crossbows?"
"Enough!"
Gilt nodded firmly. They are not the time to be stingy with resources now.
Faced with threats that may come from the Smith Party at any time, the first thing they need to ensure is that the Rakshasa Republican Party can stand firm in the Smith Republic for a long time.
If they can't even do this, there's no need for them to think about anything else.
"There are more city defense crossbows, improve our city defense ability and ensure that the Smith Party troops cannot break through our city. Once we seize the opportunity in the future, we can turn defense into offense and use the three-bow bed crossbow to launch a counterattack!"
The three-bow bed crossbow and the city defense crossbow have one attack and one defense. When introducing the product, Zhou Xu had already made it clear.
At this moment, compared to Gilter with a firm face, a trace of flesh pain flashed in Peter's eyes. Fisher's bastard's move directly led to the depreciation of the labor force.
If he wants to continue to use labor as his main trading chip, then in the next transaction, 20,000 labor will probably not be able to cover the 20,000 labor force in one transaction, and at least 30,000 to 40,000.
This was undoubtedly Zhou Xu was intentional.
Fisher's move caused the labor force to depreciate, and there is another very important reason, that is, they have absorbed tens of thousands of immigrants in the past two years of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
At present, it is still within their tolerance, but in the next few years, if they absorb immigrants at a high frequency and on a large scale, it may have an impact on their original people in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
For their Dazhou, although the labor force is more and more, the foreign labor force still needs to be properly controlled. At this time, no matter how you look at it, you should slow down for a few years and digest it carefully before talking about it.
But if he directly said that he would not accept more labor, it would inevitably expose the situation within the Great Zhou to a certain extent.
To avoid this, the easiest way now is to put it bluntly to raise the price.
Tell them directly that there is no value for labor. If you want to use labor as a bargaining chip, the number will have to double.
Through this method, the other party gradually cannot accept the price, and the other party still wants to continue to purchase equipment from him, so he can only change the payment content.

Their Rakshasa Republicans do have a lot of labor, but they can't stand such devaluation.
At the same time, Zhou Xu has also made it clear that they will continue to use labor to pay, and the labor will continue to depreciate and become less valuable.
This forced Peter to hold off on his labor spending and instead put his target on the resources at hand.
It is impossible to deny that if there is any hard currency between countries, it still has to be these resources.
Take the relatively common copper and iron as an example, they are all non-renewable resources. No country thinks that these resources are too many, and only thinks that more is the better.
After receiving a reply from Peter, Zhou Xu has been addicted to foreign trade recently and cannot extricate himself. Who can understand the joy of making money?
In this process, diplomatic teams from various countries also arrived one after another.
The first one to arrive was undoubtedly the female warriors. According to the content determined in the United Nations before, the team arranged at most thirty people, while the female warriors were ordered at random and they came over.
In fact, the diplomatic teams sent by the Great Zhou Dynasty to the female warriors were similar, and both sides were basically following the process.
The second one to arrive was Tonglu Fort, after all, it was the neighbor next door. He was ready to set off in the morning. He entered the plains fortress before dark and successfully boarded the train.
I took the train all the way, passed through the New South and New Taipei Districts, and then transferred to the ship. The journey was undoubtedly an eye-opener for the dwarves.
The development of the Great Zhou Dynasty can be said to be completely beyond their imagination.
In this process, the leader of the Tonglubao diplomatic team surprised Zhou Xu, because it was not someone else, but their old acquaintance of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Wojin Tonglu!
When Zhou Xu learned of this news, his expression on his face couldn't help but feel a little meaningful.
The second prince of the Tongluo Castle, oh no, after the old king passed away and Baron ascended the throne, Wojin could no longer be called a prince. In terms of identity, as the king's younger brother, can this be a prince?
"Send a prince to be a diplomat? What does this King Baron want to do?"
