Chapter 218 Magic Energy Engineering Research Institute

After the wind magic array stamping machine was completed, coupled with the tilt of Ellington's various resources, the production efficiency of the combine harvester suddenly improved a lot. In just two or three days, a full hundred units were produced. .

At the same time, Tang En and Crotto also trained the first batch of drivers selected by the Datang Chamber of Commerce. They will then form three fleets and drive combine harvesters from Ellington to the north, east, and west. Set off in three directions in the southeast, while providing farmland harvesting services to the towns along the way, while collecting intelligence from various places for Tang En, and at the same time promoting Ellington.

They will become a sharp knife, cleaving the path forward for Ellington.

Watching the motorcade leave Ellington, the group of people standing at the intersection had extremely complicated emotions.

This time, Ellington took advantage of the good opportunity of the harvest to powerfully demonstrate his existence to the outside world for the first time.

Everyone hopes they can have a good round.

In fact, Tang En and Fiona were not worried.

As Fiona said before, many lords and nobles now own large tracts of land. However, due to the low population and low work efficiency, even if a lot of land is cultivated, it will be too late to harvest in the harvest moon, and it will be wet by the rain. Either due to the migration of wild beasts or the infestation of monsters, it is impossible to harvest in time, so a lot of land is in a state of waste.

After they see the power of the combine harvester, they will definitely be excited. This not only means an increase in actual arable land, but also an improvement in harvesting efficiency. More grain will enter the granary instead of being wasted.

Whether these grains are sold or used to make wine, they represent more gold coins and wealth. Even though the combine harvester is more expensive, it only takes a few years to make back the money, so of course they will not let it go. this opportunity.

"Brother, I suddenly thought of a question."

On the way back, Brian rubbed his beard and knitted his brows together.

"what is the problem?"

"You can build this kind of machine to harvest crops and improve efficiency..."

Brian looked at the busy combine harvester in the farmland in the distance, his eyes inexplicably excited: "What about mining? Can we come up with a machine that can help us improve mining efficiency?"

Tang En was startled: "Mining?"

"That's right!"

Brian clapped his hands: "I don't think this is a problem for you. We have been coveting the magician's 'fossils into mud' spell for a long time. Do you know that this spell is a magical skill when used in mines?" ?”

"Of course I do."

Tang En shrugged: "But unlike magicians, even if you are given a tool that can stabilize the 'fossils into mud' spell, you can't control it accurately. When the time comes, you will soften the ore together. After all, this spell has Ore works too.”

"this……"

Brian was dumbfounded. He had seen rune dwarves use the "fossils into mud" spell when they were mining. It was so cool. They didn't even need to bring a mining pickaxe. They dug wherever they pointed. Those normal dwarves had long been jealous, but Tang Tang After En said this, he realized that it was not simple inside.

"Lord, you'd better think of a way to solve this problem."

Fiona reminded Tang En: "The recent development has been too fast, and the metal mineral resources we have recently reserved have been almost exhausted...Other metal mines are not used much for the time being, so there are still stocks, but all the iron ore is used for refining. The production of steel, pig iron and cast iron is insufficient, but there are not many uses, so it is not a problem, but copper mines have laid out water pipe networks and also produced various faucets and other parts, so copper mines are already in serious shortage."

Tang En frowned: "Is the shortage already starting?"

"Yes, this is the result of us now starting to produce ceramic tableware and saving part of the iron and silver."

Fiona took out a notebook, flipped through it, and said with a straight face: "If we cannot obtain more mineral resources or improve transportation efficiency at our current development speed, it will take about another month at most. Ellington's development would come to a standstill."

"so serious?"

“No, in fact it could be worse – possibly even starting to go backwards given the hit to resident morale!”

Fiona sighed: "Territory development and business management are actually the same. Once development begins, there is no turning back."

Tang En sighed: "Sail against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat."

Fiona was startled and praised: "Lord, you are still good at condensing language and words, very incisive."

Nora and Elsa looked at each other, and neither of them felt that there was anything surprising about Tang En's words - this was the so-called illiterate in the examination room looking at the illiterate, looking at each other with tears in their eyes.

"But when you say that, you really need to think of a solution."

Tang En rubbed his chin and his eyes lit up: "Wait, there is a way!"

"So fast!?"

Fiona, Elsa, and Brian all had their eyes widened with astonishment on their faces.

Although I knew that Tang En was a very smart lord, I didn't expect that he would be able to think of a solution so quickly.

"Although you can't apply magic directly, if you improve it a little, it will still be fine."

"oh!?"

Brian was overjoyed: "What can I do? Tell me quickly!"

"It's very simple. Just reduce the range of the spell."

Tang En said with a smile: "Using spells on a large scale will make you unable to control it, but narrowing the scope and increasing the possibility of manual control will be enough."

What he had in mind was a small one-man auger drill on Earth.

"How to add manual control?"

Brian was puzzled: "Ordinary dwarves...ordinary mine workers cannot use magic."

"It literally means 'manual' control."

Tang En laughed loudly and said, "Let's go, I'll make a prototype for you soon when we get back."

After the group returned, they soon separated.

Fiona continued to go back and work on Ellington's various laws at night, sort out the information fed back by the Datang Chamber of Commerce, and conduct integrated management of human resources. She is now almost the busiest person.

After Elsa came back, she once again took back the training responsibilities of the Guard. After relaxing for more than half a month, her father, Alberton, faced his daughter's questioning and condemning eyes, and climbed into the Ambris Mountains in despair.

I'm afraid he also knows that he betrayed his daughter, so his face doesn't look good...

Clara didn't have anything to say about this. Elsa's decision was her decision. Besides, after so many years, she had already become accustomed to the life here.

But hearing the news about her father made her miss him very much.

After Tang En heard what Elsa said about this, he was thinking about granting permission to Clara and Alberton so that they could use the teleportation array to go back to Alexis to visit relatives or something. Unfortunately, they were too busy. , without even giving him this chance, Abadon got into the mountains.

Isn't this guy afraid of becoming a savage?

What does it mean to have such a beautiful wife at home and go to the mountains every day?

Could it be that he prefers beasts to beauties?

Of course, no one could answer Tang En's doubts. Even Elsa didn't know why Abaddon liked to go into the mountains so much.

Brian, Edgar, and Nokia followed Tang En back to Edgar's blacksmith shop. Looking at the messy yard, Tang En sighed: "Edgar, I won't even leave your blacksmith shop." .”

"ah!?"

Edgar was shocked: "Lord Lord!?"

"Your place has almost become our laboratory... Well, let's do this. From now on, your blacksmith shop will cease operations and will no longer be open to the public. You will be my employee from now on. The Lord's Mansion will give you funds to renovate it. From now on, your blacksmith shop will This is the Demon Energy Engineering Research Institute of our Datang Chamber of Commerce, and you are the vice president! The basic salary is one hundred gold coins per month!"

"Magic...Engineering...Academy?"

Although he understood every word, when they were connected together, Edgar couldn't understand it at all. However... as long as something is connected with magic, it must be super powerful!

So Edgar became excited - the lord was going to promote him!

"Understood! Lord Lord, but... who is the dean?"

Brian smiled. Speaking of the dean, of course he was the one who made the biggest contribution. He had made great contributions from the very beginning. Of course, he had to take the dean's seat.

This little Nokia guy actually has the nerve to laugh? Doesn't he know that I am a great hero?

Huh, let him know later, who is more important in the big brother's heart!

Nokia also smiled. When it comes to engineering, who is more professional than the dwarf? Although he is not Master Cloteau, he is a member of Master Cloteau's chief assistant team, and he is also the most professional engineering master in Ellington at present!

Although this institute has the word "magic" in it, the focus is on the "Engineering Research Institute" at the back. Of course, this dean belongs to him!

He even said that there was no one more suitable besides him!

Brian's bearded man actually has the nerve to laugh. Doesn't he know that he is a layman in both magic and engineering?

What are you laughing laughing?

Is it possible that he still wants to be the dean?

It makes people laugh out loud...

"Dean?"

Tang En said matter-of-factly: "Of course it's me!"

Edgar: "What?"

Nokia: "What!?"

Brian: "Brother, are you kidding me!?"

"Who's in the mood to tease you?"

Tang En rolled his eyes: "Tell me, who else here is more suitable to be the dean than me?"

"Me! Me! Of course it's me!"

Nokia pointed at himself and said with great effort: "According to probability calculations, if I become the dean, I can increase Ellington's development speed by 95.27%!"

"Me! Of course it's me!"

Brian's eyes widened and he pointed at himself and said, "Brother, don't forget who worked so hard to start your business with you, who spent the cold nights with you one after another, who -"

"Damn it, you dirty demon king, shut up now!"

Tang En pushed the curious Nora back: "You two are deputy deans!"

Brian gritted his teeth: "It's really despicable to actually decide on yourself!"

Nokia snorted: "I have never seen such a shameless person!"
