Chapter 211 Return to Ellington
Although Tang En is very sinister and sinister, and likes to do evil things secretly, he is still just an upright and good citizen after all, and he is still a little less cunning than Ye Ge.
He probably never would have imagined that the person following him was actually a "clone".
As Ye Ge released the clone, the magic mark on the clone also disappeared. Of course Tang En could not find where the "Ye Ge" was.
"This little girl... can actually find the magic mark and erase it. I underestimate her..."
The corner of Tang En's mouth curled up, revealing a very dangerous smile.
"Lord Lord?"
Hilton looked at Tang En's smile and felt a little scared in his heart.
"Oh it's all right."
Tang En suppressed his smile and then said: "There may be some movement from the Business Alliance. You should remain unchanged to cope with the changes. If there is any emergency, use the teleportation array to notify me."
"I see."
Hilton immediately understood that Tang En had fallen out with the business alliance after all.
"Also, help me keep an eye on Ye Ge. If that girl appears... let me know immediately."
Hilton nodded, and then she came back to her senses. Ye Ge, who had gone to the dinner with Tang En, disappeared.
Thinking of the very dangerous smile of the lord just now...
Hilton had a sudden thought. Could Ye Ge have angered the lord?
Elsa and the others had already had dinner, and Tang En went to the kitchen to cook a few vegetables, and then went to the yard to drink by himself before venting his frustration at being plotted by Ye Ge.
The next day, Tang En originally wanted to walk around to see if he could catch Ye Ge and train him, but Fiona suddenly rushed over from Ellington and told Tang En an important news, so Tang En He had to terminate the plan, took Elsa and Illya on the carriage and left the city, and then secretly used the teleportation array to return directly to Ellington.
As soon as he came out of the teleportation array, Tang En was stunned for a moment: "When did a house be built here?"
Fiona said angrily: "This is a teleportation array! Although you are not afraid of being known by others, why don't you cover it up? Because I don't know what your plans are, I temporarily used a simple house to cover it up and waited. You plan later.”
"There's nothing to plan. Just build an open-air plaza. Even if it's beautiful, we'll have to worry about it later."
Tang En was too lazy to design so much. Although it would be very beautiful to design it on the scale of the airport and train station, it would be a waste of energy to build it like that. He didn't have so much time to waste on it now.
"Okay...oh, we'll talk about this later, let's go get down to business!"
Fiona seemed to be very excited, but she kept silent when Tang En asked her, only waiting for him to see it in person, so Tang En was also very curious and didn't know what happened.
"Elsa, you and Ilia go home first."
"Okay, Lord."
"Goodbye, big brother~"
Illya pursed her pink lips and kissed Tang En on the face, then reluctantly took Elsa's hand and left.
"Okay, let's go... Fiona?"
Tang En looked at Fiona a little strangely. Why did her eyes look so strange?
The lord's hobby is indeed... very special.
Fiona looked away and said silently: "Let's go."
The two of them hurried to Edgar's blacksmith shop. When they arrived, Brian and Edgar were drinking and celebrating with red faces, while the dwarf named Nokia was squatting next to them and staring at a pile of metal tools in a daze.
"What's wrong? Did you solve the combine harvester problem?"
Tang En is also very happy. If the production problem can be solved and mass production can be carried out immediately, it will be produced before the autumn harvest. This year's autumn harvest in the territory will save a lot of time. They can even form a convoy to go to other territories for harvesting. Make money, achieve multiple things with one stone.
"Ah? Big brother, you are back!"
Brian laughed loudly and said: "Master Cloto and us have already solved the problem of the combine harvester. We are missing a key part of the power problem, and we are just waiting for you to come back and make a decision."
"power?"
"Yes, Nokia joined our research after laying the water pipes. Later, Master Cloto came and helped us solve several key problems. But regarding the issue of power, Master Cloto thought that using dwarfs Steam engines are better, we think so, but Lord, did you say you would use an improved magic engine?"
Brian, Edgar, and Nokia are all guys who know nothing about magic, so they can easily understand the principles and effects of the dwarf steam engine. However, Tang En said before that he has solved the power problem and needs to use improvements. Magic engine, except for him to solve this kind of thing, they can only wait.
"Yes, of course we have to use the magic engine."
Tang En said matter-of-factly: "Although steam engines are good, they are noisy, have insufficient power output, and cause serious pollution. I will never use them."
"Lord Tang En! You are insulting our scientific and technological achievements!"
Nokia came to its senses and shouted in a high voice: "The dwarf steam engine is one of our greatest inventions! It has brought us great development by leaps and bounds!"
"But the age of steam is outdated."
Tang En smiled slightly: "Even Master Clotho must admit this fact. If you cannot solve the power problem of the power source, dwarf technology will stop here."
Nokia was speechless.
"In fact, I have already told Master Clotto the next development direction. You are also experimenting, aren't you?"
Nokia is a very valuable foreign aid engineer. Of course, Tang En cannot hit him too hard, so he said with a smile: "Whether it is an internal combustion engine or further exploring the value of magic crystal, they are all good directions. They are better than steam engines." It’s effective. Before that, I think it’s better to use my method.”
"Well, this is your territory anyway."
Nokia's face looked much better.
"Then let me see your results."
"Well, big brother..."
Brian scratched his head: "This is not why we asked you to come back."
Tang En was stunned for a moment: "Isn't it because of this? What is that for?"
"is that one."
Fiona pointed to the pile of metal utensils of various colors in front of Nokia, and Nokia immediately handed over one of the bright silver metal daggers.
"What's this?"
Tang En was stunned. This metal dagger didn't look like iron or steel, nor was it a magic metal like magic iron or fine gold. It was also surprisingly light in weight. It was as light as a piece of wood in his hand.
Brian spread his hands: "We don't know either."
"have no idea?"
Edgar scratched his head: "Yes, Lord, this was done accidentally... According to you, this should be an alloy, right?"
"Alloy? New alloy?"
Tang En's eyes widened: "How did you do it?"
Edgar pointed to a test stone made of scrap metal next to him and said, "We will talk about this later. Lord, please try this dagger first."
Tang En stepped forward and made a light stroke. The dagger easily left a deep mark on the test stone, but the blade of the dagger itself did not suffer any damage.
"Awesome, right? Right!?"
Brian laughed wildly: "We were absolutely shocked when we found out!"
Tang En's eyes shone: "It's more than amazing! It's incredible! Tell me how you made this alloy!? Can it still be restored!?"
"Of course!"
Brian smiled proudly: "In order to restore this alloy, we worked continuously for a full week without sleep - no, for a full half a month!"
Nonsense...
Tang En laughed secretly in his heart, half a month? He had just left Ellington half a month ago, and he hadn't heard of it when he came back last time. It was obvious that Brian was taking credit.
"Okay, don't talk nonsense. If you are a good wine steward, you will get a big bounty!"
Tang En blocked Brian's mouth with one sentence, and Edgar also showed a bright smile.
"Sure enough, following the big brother is the right choice!"
Brian grinned and began to explain to Tang En how this alloy was discovered.
At first, Brian and Edgar were just tinkering with the steel that Tang En had made in their spare time, wanting to test the various extreme properties of the steel. The steel that was damaged in the experiment was melted back into a furnace by them. Melt.
Then an apprentice recruited by Edgar came back from collecting herbs in the forest. Before he could go home, he brought the herbs to the blacksmith shop to get busy. As a result, his bag of herbs accidentally fell into the molten steel.
The apprentice immediately used an adamantine stirring spoon to fish it out, but unfortunately it was too late. The herbal bag disappeared the moment it entered.
Later, when the molten furnace was cooled and formed again, Brian and Edgar were surprised to find that the originally silver-white steel had a blue sheen - very similar to the color of fine gold, but not the same color. Fine gold.
Later, after testing, it was found that the performance of this metal was even more superior than that of steel!
High strength and toughness!
Brian and the others thought it was because of the herbs, so they found the apprentice and asked what herbs were in the bag.
Gray thistle and silverweed.
So they started experimenting.
And then fail, fail, keep failing...
At first they thought there was a problem with the proportions, and then they confirmed the quantity of herbs and started testing again, but it still failed.
Until later, they accidentally used the fine gold stirring spoon to stir once, and then they were pleasantly surprised to find that they succeeded!
Brian then weighed it. After stirring with the fine gold stirring spoon, the weight decreased a bit, as if it had been assimilated by the molten liquid - but due to the properties of fine gold, it is impossible for it to melt at this temperature!
Then, after many experiments, Brian and Edgar finally determined how to make this new alloy.
Molten steel, add gray thistle, add silver thread flower, and then add a small amount of magic metal, and it's done!
