God of Technology: Creating the Internet in Another World-Chapter 392: Really Hard to Decide

For the first time in his life, Viscount Roster felt he didn’t understand the noble class at all.

Over the years, he’d set up plenty of schemes targeting nobles. Even before the God of Technology appeared in this world, he hadn’t misunderstood the noble class in his reforms of his own territory.

But this time, he was disappointed.

Originally, he thought these awful people would start trying to engage with magic-tech industry. But he never expected their choice would be to elevate technology to become a state religion while having zero interest in magic-tech industry.

Viscount Roster could even imagine that in the remote areas these guys controlled, local people still wouldn’t know what magic conductors were, still wouldn’t know what magic-tech industry meant. Even the sales channels the Golden Merchant Guild cooperated with them to open mostly sold food, potions, ready-made clothes, fabric...

Their understanding of the Church of Technology would be no different from their understanding of other deities.

They would know nothing about the greatness of the Church of Technology.

Anything people hadn’t encountered was like legend to ordinary folks, no different from stories.

Viscount Roster’s mind raced, already starting to think about how to further influence these areas.

Industrialization had to spread to every person, to every corner. Only then would it truly succeed.

His mind racing, Viscount Roster didn’t know what to do for a moment!

But suddenly, Viscount Roster seemed to think of something and jumped up. "Right! Stocks! With such a huge thing happening, what’s the stock situation? Big gains or big losses?"

According to his vision, this event should definitely push stock prices up, benefiting everyone, benefiting every company.

But now, the situation had clearly deviated from his expectations.

He was starting to get uncertain too.

He quickly opened the stock market. The first thing he saw was Roster Territory Group Company.

Without a doubt.

Roster Territory Group Company’s stock instantly skyrocketed.

The price per share was now pushing close to thirty gold coins.

The Church of Technology had such powerful combat capability. As the weapons supplier for the Church of Technology, maybe weapons would make Roster Territory Group Company lose money, but what about other aspects?

After this battle, nobody in this world would dare mess with Roster territory. Looking across all races, probably only the dragon race could stand against them.

But who didn’t know Viscount Roster and the dragons were practically thick as thieves?

That being the case.

Then basically, it meant that from now on, whatever business Roster Territory Group Company did, it would go smoothly.

Compared to the benefits in this area, what did the investment in weapons even matter?

Just consider it Roster Territory Group Company having an ultra-strong security force.

Besides Roster Territory Group Company, Southern Development Corporation also rose slightly, as did Foster Mine Company.

But looking at other companies, almost every single one crashed.

Of course, they crashed, but how much they crashed varied.

The dragons’ two companies had always been steadily rising in a small range. This was the first time they’d dropped. Though it was less than one gold coin, proportionally speaking, it was still a crash.

What about the Wool Merchant Guild?

It dropped right back to four gold coins, directly becoming undervalued—also a crash.

And that was still a company from the Kingdom of Dawn. If it was companies from other places, the drop would be even scarier.

Viscount Roster let out a long breath. "Really don’t know when the confidence that crashed will recover."

Muttering, he opened some posts where people often discussed stocks.

"The Church of Technology’s strength is really too terrifying. Feels even scarier than the Church of War back then."

"Does this mean the Church of Technology can basically decide the world order now? Other than other gods being able to restrain the Church of Technology, there’s no other way?"

"Didn’t the God of Technology already wipe out the God of War before? I heard when people who believed in the God of War pray to the God of War, they see the God of Technology. Gradually, they started believing in the God of Technology too! If even the God of War could be taken out, what about other gods?"

"Really don’t know how the Church of Technology will decide their future direction. I’ve already sold off a lot of stocks. One decision from the Church of Technology could affect whether a company lives or dies."

"Newbie question, everyone: hasn’t the Church of Technology always existed? The Magic Net we use, the stock exchange we trade on, weren’t they all created by the Church of Technology? It seems like our stock trading happens under the Church of Technology’s influence too. Why is the Church of Technology getting stronger bearish news? Logically, shouldn’t it be bullish? Nobody can affect this tide anymore!"

"For the overall picture, naturally it’s bullish. But who knows if the Church of Technology might dislike some company or some country?"

"I heard a lot of countries still refuse the magic-tech industrial era. Will they start attacking from these countries? If so, wouldn’t Roster territory be able to rise even higher later?"

"Too bad Roster Territory Group Company’s stock price is already close to thirty gold coins per share now. I can’t afford it at all, can’t trade it."

At first, watching those messages, Viscount Roster just found it ridiculous. Why did they understand that after the Church of Technology became powerful, it wanted to make the whole world submit?

Why would it definitely target certain countries and forces?

Why did the Church of Technology’s display of power make them feel all companies were in danger?

But soon, Viscount Roster understood the key point...

He started thinking again about whether to announce the Tulip Kingdom situation.

If he could announce the Tulip Kingdom situation and announce the reason the Church of Technology was training troops, they definitely wouldn’t think so much. The market would stabilize again... Of course, unexpected situations could also occur.

The first loss of control made Viscount Roster less confident.

Maybe announcing the Tulip Kingdom situation would actually make a lot of people more desperate?

Logically, they should either panic briefly then ignore it, or unite against a common enemy and prepare to resist the external threat. But was these people’s thinking really still like that?

Viscount Roster couldn’t judge for the moment.

Kind of torn. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Was there any way to test this on a small scale and study the reaction?

Once announced, everyone would know.

Really hard to decide.

However, when he saw someone say they couldn’t afford Roster Territory Group Company stock anymore, his mind seemed to get hit by lightning.

Actually, just by slightly adjusting the strategy, his Roster territory could definitely raise more funds through the stock market!
