Chapter 226 A Confusing Layout

Kasparmi Castle, Lord's Palace.

"Lord, the patrolling guards discovered a strange 'car' convoy."

After hearing the steward's order, Lawrence Kadir, the new lord of Castle Casparmi, who was having a headache about how to arrange the farmers' autumn harvest, said impatiently: "Convoy? Which chamber of commerce is it from? Let it go after collecting the city entry tax. Where is it now?" Take care of them when you have time.”

The housekeeper whispered: "It's from the Tang Dynasty Chamber of Commerce..."

"Datang Chamber of Commerce? Is there such a chamber of commerce?...Wait!"

Lawrence suddenly realized: "That Datang Chamber of Commerce in Ellington?"

"That's right."

"They already have a Chamber of Commerce base in Fort Kaspami, right? There's no need to make a fuss about their convoy."

Lawrence was very dissatisfied. The family had issued an order. He had also arranged for people to monitor the Datang Chamber of Commerce all the time, and had already implemented the business alliance's task of blocking the Datang Chamber of Commerce. What else was worth reporting to him?

"But Lord, this convoy is not the previous carriage convoy."

The steward said very carefully: "This is a... very strange convoy of mechanical structures. There is no carriage. People from the Datang Chamber of Commerce are driving those mechanical structures. They claim to be the 'First Union of the Datang Chamber of Commerce'" Harvest convoy', as long as the lord is willing to pay gold coins, they can solve the autumn harvest problem in the territory for the lord within two days."

"Ha! How dare the Datang Chamber of Commerce come to me to do business? Is that Tang En out of his mind?"

Lawrence couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Or does he think that because he killed Duvier, he can ignore me?... Wait! Did you just say, within two days!?"

"Yes, Lord, within two days."

"This is impossible!"

Lawrence was very surprised: "Although the territory of Fort Casparmi is not as large as Ellington, the cultivated area here is more than twice that of Ellington. Even if I include the workers in the mines and the slaves, Even if we all mobilize, it will take half a month to harvest, so why can they do it in two days?"

"Lord, they seem very confident, why don't they meet and talk to their captain? If it is true, it is naturally a good thing. Paying some gold coins can save a lot of time and manpower. If not, then We can definitely file a complaint in the imperial capital and settle the score with Tang En later."

Lawrence pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "Indeed, time is very tight now. The harvest month is already halfway through, and there will most likely be a heavy rain at the end of the month. If the harvest cannot be harvested in time, the food in the fields will probably suffer, and the loss will be even greater. Now, contact their captain, I’d like to see how they convince me.”

"As commanded."

Lawrence soon met with the captain and easily convinced Lawrence to accept the deal.

How to convince him?

The captain used the simplest method that Tang En taught them - let Lawrence see them harvest a piece of farmland with his own eyes.

When Lawrence saw pieces of mature crops being swallowed by the huge mechanical structure, and what was sprayed out of the truck behind was directly shelled grain, and the people behind could even start bagging directly, he was shocked. .

When he saw that the farmland had been harvested in just a short tea time, Lawrence shuddered.

How efficient is this?

He can't describe it!

All he knew was that the Datang Chamber of Commerce had created a monster this time!

A monster that could change the agricultural structure of the world!

After negotiating with the captain about the rewards for harvesting the farmland, Lawrence didn't even have time to supervise their work. He hurried back to the Lord's Mansion, took out the expensive magic letter, pondered for a moment and then started writing.

This kind of magic letter from the City of Silver is a one-time consumable. They are expensive. They are sold in pairs for a set of 10,000 gold coins. The effect is very simple. After writing on one letter, another one will appear. The same text will be displayed immediately on the letter, and the holder will be reminded to check the magic letter. There is no limit on the distance of use, and it can be used to convey very important information at critical moments.

At this moment, Lawrence obviously believed that the value of this news warranted the use of magic letters to deliver it.

Yalinx, Kadir family.

"Datang Chamber of Commerce's first combined harvest team? Does being first mean there are second, third, etc.? Combine harvesters? Interesting stuff..."

The patriarch Frank looked at the magic letter on the table, his face still smiling. The eldest son Charles and the second son Molton stood silently beside them.

"What do you think?"

"Father, this is probably the reason why His Majesty Victor values ​​Tang En so much. I think we need to analyze this information carefully. It is best to get this combine harvester in our hands and study it carefully."

"I also agree with my brother. Maybe we can get some important information from it."

"Analysis..."

Frank, who was smiling, paused: "Then tell me, what have you analyzed from that magic air conditioner in the past half month?"

Charles and Molton looked at each other. Molton took a step forward under Charles's cold gaze and said bravely: "Father, my craftsmen have dismantled the magic air conditioner. The information we now know is this magic energy." The structure of the air conditioner is very simple, but the processing technology of the casing is not simple. The craftsmen under me were shocked. Most of the complex structures seemed to be integrally formed using molds, but the processing accuracy was not that of hand molds at all. What can be achieved shows that Tang En has very high-level craftsmen in his hands."

"In addition, the core structure inside the magic air conditioner is a modified and simplified magic array, which is double superimposed through an ingenious structure and shares a magic crystal for energy."

"Double stack?"

Frank said with a smile: "It seems that the level of the magicians you have is not very good."

Molton said helplessly: "The City of Silver's supervision of magicians is becoming more and more strict, and the control of magic books is also very strict. It is becoming more and more difficult to recruit wild mages."

Frank said calmly: "Then let me tell you, that magic circle is not a double superposition, but a triple superposition."

"Three stacks!?"

Charles and Moulton were shocked: "How is that possible!?"

Even if they don't understand magic, they also know how difficult it is to use the superposition of magic circles. Double superposition is already indescribably complicated. If you are not careful, it will cause magic disorder and the entire magic circle to completely collapse. And now, my father actually said That’s three stacks! ?

"That's what it is."

Frank's mind recalled the scene when he saw Tang En that day, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter: "It seems that all of us were deceived by that Tang En, wild mage? Is there any wild mage with such advanced magic circle cultivation? "

Charles was shocked: "Father, what do you mean-"

Molton looked in disbelief: "Is this Tang En from the City of Silver? Is he sent by Jean Lord of Stars and Moon? Isn't he adhering to permanent neutrality, only supervising the Gate of Chaos and not participating in politics? ?"

Frank said meaningfully: "People will change..."

"Then what should we do?"

"Reply to the letter and tell Lawrence to contact Ellington and propose a purchase intention if possible to see if the Datang Chamber of Commerce is willing to sell the combine harvester. At the same time, tell him that the Datang Chamber of Commerce has any new trends or new things. There is no need to ask again. You can directly purchase it first and then send it back to the family, and part of the expenses will be borne by the family finance."

Frank knocked on the table, pondered for a moment and then continued: "But you can buy more combine harvesters this time. How many towns and farmland our family members have, let's make statistics and see how many combine harvesters we need to buy. And leave it to him.”

"Father, wouldn't this make that Tang En earn a lot of money?"

Charles frowned slightly: "If we help him, won't it make him grow up faster? Then it will be a big trouble for us."

"My son, you have to remember that if he is really a magician from the City of Silver and represents Jean's attitude, then even without our gold coins, he will still grow up and make us happy. The plan completely failed. If he was not from the City of Silver, then even with our gold coins, he would not be able to make much of a splash, but after we get the combine harvester, we can free up a lot of manpower."

Charles and Molton said solemnly: "I have learned a lesson."

"Therefore, until we find out Tang En's true identity, our next plan will be put on hold. Until we have more detailed information, our probing work will also be suspended. It's not time to turn the tables yet."

Frank waved his hand: "I'm tired, please step back."

"Okay, Father, please rest."

Charles and Moulton bowed and retreated.

At the door, the two fell silent again, and Charles looked very ugly.

Molton's heart moved: "Did you take action?"

Charles said coldly: "It's you, can you swallow that breath?"

"Of course not."

Charles said solemnly: "I sent death warriors to assassinate Tang En, but it turned out that there was no trace of him at 77 Queen Street. He left Alexis without anyone knowing."

Molton frowned: "Did he feel the danger, so he escaped overnight?"

"It's possible. After all, he is a magician and may be quite sensitive. Counting the time, the people I sent out should be catching up with Ellington soon. They don't have any magic letters with them."

"In other words, even if you want to cancel the order now, it's too late?"

"But they brought demon-breaking weapons."

Charles said calmly: "Each person prepared ten magic-breaking arrows worth one thousand gold coins each, and twenty explosive arrows worth five hundred gold coins each. The leader was the Poison Sickle. He is holding an excellent dagger worth 100,000 gold coins, and the dagger is also enchanted with the magic-breaking effect... Even a master-level mage will die tragically on the spot if he is not careful under their assassination!"

Molton took a breath: "You sent out all the poison sickles!?"

Charles sneered: "Why else would we raise him?"

After another moment of silence, Charles said: "We will soon know how strong that Tang En is. If he is dead, then I did it. If he is not dead, then we have never sent him." Do these people know?"

What a "me" and "we"!

Molton nodded silently.
