Getting Ionians to accept Hex technology is not an easy task.

Even after experiencing the war, the Ionians are not so easy to accept new things from the outside world.

In this country that pays attention to the unity of nature and man, and the principle of balance, Hex Technology, which represents an absolute external force... is not so easy to swallow.

Therefore, in order to allow the Ionians to better accept this technology and absorb its essence, Yasuo's promotion chose a special area as the first stop.

This area is Kashuli.

……………………

Kashuli is the second largest city in the Ionian province of Ziva, after Zivania.

This is the "industrial center" of Ionia. Before the Ionian War, it had the largest number of craftsmen in Ionia.

Of course, according to the custom of Ionia at that time, although these craftsmen could do anything, they were generally in a state of master and apprentice, father and son passing on skills. The ecological environment dominated by small workshops was relatively closed.

As for tradition, there is no big innovation, but it can always meet existing needs.

However, with the advent of the war, things began to change.

Kashuli, located in Zhiyun, did not become the front line of the war. As Ionia united and resisted aggression, it soon became a unified logistics center for the volunteers from all over the country.

The quality of the weapons and equipment produced in Kashuli is quite reliable, but because of the small workshop, the production capacity has been unable to keep up...

In order to expand production capacity, Yasuo also made a special trip to Kashuli and proactively proposed assembly line production.

The emergence of the assembly line has greatly improved Kashuli's original efficiency level, and also destroyed Kashuli's original production order to a certain extent. Although the products coming off the assembly line cannot match the quality of skilled workers, they are still inferior in price and quantity.

With the advantage, the ancient small handicraft workshop was still defeated step by step.

In this case, with the end of the war, the big craftsmen who mastered the technology wisely stood together and established the Kashuli United Factory before they were completely eliminated.

This workshop took advantage of its technical and production advantages to almost completely monopolize the entire handicraft industry in Ionia. The other handicraft workshops in various places were once reduced to repair shops.

For the same sickle, even if shipping costs are included, the price of the same sickle produced in Kashuli is lower than that of the local masters. This terrible competitiveness is almost a dimensionality reduction blow to the handicraft production in various places.

While uniting together, Kashuli's joint factory also issued recruitment notices to the entire Ionia, welcoming craftsmen from all over to join it. Therefore, when the last Ionian Congress was held, Kashuli

The representatives are almost completely monopolized by craftsmen.

Because of moral concerns, the Kashuli factory has not resorted to monopoly to increase prices (at least so far, the price advantage is still an important advantage of the Kashuli factory). In order to obtain higher profits, in Bilgewater

After the Tide of Fire, the Kashuli Factory developed a business that no one could have imagined.

arms trade.

Weapons produced in Kashuli were shipped to Bilgewater in large quantities. These cheap, easy-to-use, solid and reliable scimitars quickly overwhelmed Bilgewater's stagnant forging industry and brought a large amount of gold coins to Kashuli.

The great craftsmen of Kashuli took advantage of this opportunity and became the first arms dealers in Ionia. Although their products were not as good as the rune steel products of Demacia and Noxus in terms of quality.

The black iron suit, Piltover's Hex device, and Shurima's ancient magic items, but because of their huge price advantage, they still successfully squeezed out Bilgewater's market.

Through the transfer in Bilgewater, these products gradually began to spread to other areas of Runeterra, rapidly expanding their territory in the low-end weapons market.

It is precisely because of this kind of pioneering that at the last Preidian Congress, all the people representing Kashuli were arms dealers...

To other people in Ionia, perhaps Piltover's Hex Technology is just a fancy gadget, but to the arms dealers in Kashuli, Hex Technology is a gateway to high-end arms business.

After mastering Hex Technology, the products produced by Kashuli will not only be low-end and high-volume goods, but may also become the leading product of Runeland's international trade like Demacia's rune steel!

Therefore, when Yasuo came to Kashuli with representatives from Piltover, he was immediately warmly welcomed by the locals.

The Piltover representative who discovered this quickly sent an envoy back to Piltover to report immediately.

"Ionia already has a large-scale factory?!"

Camille was stunned when she got the news.

Although she had heard about the waist knives and spears produced in Ionia, she had never heard about the Ionia factory before. Now she suddenly knew that there was a large factory in Ionia, which undoubtedly made the Gray Lady

Startled.

But thinking about it carefully, Camille was not too worried.

Although the Hex Trade Association sold Hex technology by the way, at least the Hex crystal was still firmly in Piltover's hands...

As long as they hold on to the energy, even if the Ionians can crack the principles of some Hex products through prevention, reverse reasoning, etc., it will be difficult for them to turn around and compete with Piltover - and even Piltover can improve it by improving

The price of Hex Crystal indirectly controls the Ionian market!

Then, just after Camille felt relieved a little, she received the latest news.

Zaun and Ionia also reached an agreement, and they exchanged Hex Crystal technology for some of the technologies previously blocked by Piltover...

The people of Camille were a little dumbfounded.

Co-author, what you said before about "serious pollution" and "unacceptable" are all nonsense. Did you deliberately set a trap on me from the beginning?!

This trick of playing hard to get directly dispelled my guard against the Ionians. I thought you wanted technology to prevent the monopoly of the one-sided seller's market, but I didn't expect that this was to dig up our roots!

The energy of the Hex Crystal can no longer lock the Ionians?

If Ionia relies on its advantages of large local population and cheap labor to increase the production of Hex products...will Ionia's products push Pi City back in the future?

This is unacceptable under any circumstances!

Realizing the seriousness of the problem, Camille immediately held a meeting and quickly blocked all exports of Hex ore.
Chapter completed!
