Chapter 276 Let's Call It ""
"Oh, that," Dunn gave a thumbs up, with a bright smile on his face, "That's called a combine harvester, I developed it specifically for harvesting crops...isn't it great?"
Grandia watched helplessly as a mechanical construct drove into the farmland, and then the newly matured wheat was swallowed by the construct, and large pieces of wheat just disappeared, and what was spit out from the back of the truck was directly Husks of wheat!
Grantia was shocked.
Grantia was dumbfounded.
Grantia shuddered.
"you you you--"
Grandia trembled her lips: "You tricked me!?"
In her original plan, she only needs to spend some time to ripen a piece of farmland every three to five times, and then she can easily let go of her hands and rest. After all, it takes time to harvest farmland. With the convenient teleportation array, she can take advantage of this It was too late to harass Aegwynn happily.
But she never expected that Tang En actually had such a thing as a combine harvester here!
"how come?"
Tang En looked innocent: "Where did I cheat you?"
"You, why don't you say what kind of combine harvester you have here?"
Grandia almost vomited blood angrily. She looked at the large piece of wheat in front of her, but it was harvested in just a few minutes. If the harvesting efficiency was based on this, she would not be able to keep up with the harvesting efficiency even if she was exhausted!
Tang En clearly wanted to squeeze her hard, making her unable to escape and find Egwen!
treacherous!
insidious!
cunning!
Grandia gasped and glared at Tang En. She had to admit that she underestimated this harmless guy!
"Oh, I see what you mean!"
Tang En clapped his hands suddenly: "Are you worried that I will make you ripen the crops continuously every day?"
Grandia didn't speak, but her expression had already answered Tang En's question.
"Don't worry, it won't happen."
Tang En comforted her and said, "Although the magic technique is very convenient, I still don't know if there are any restrictions..."
"Of course there is!"
Grandia said firmly: "The same land can only be ripened once in four months, otherwise the land will become a desert."
"Is it desertification caused by excessive nutrient consumption? This is understandable."
Tang En raised his eyebrows: "That's not what I'm worried about. In the case of insufficient food, it is very worthwhile to exchange land and time for food. What I am worried about is that the food ripened by magic is not nutritious and can only fill the stomach .”
"Insufficient nutrition?"
Fiona was startled: "What do you mean?"
"It's protein..."
Tang En was stunned, and said dejectedly: "Forget it, I can't explain it clearly. It's quite complicated. Anyway, it's more important to fill the stomach in a short time. Nutrition will be discussed later. All in all, it's up to Grandia to solve the food shortage for the winter." , as long as about 100 hectares of wheat are ripened before winter, it should be enough to survive the winter... Oh, I forgot to explain to you, the farmland just now is one hectare."
This is one hectare?
Grandia glanced at the farmland and said that he still needs to ripen one hundred hectares...
Her eyes went dark, and she had already seen a dark future.
"Oh, yes, Fiona."
"Um?"
"Remember to mark the batch of wheat harvested today, make a note, bag it separately, and then find someone to follow up and investigate. It is best to find someone to try it, try to see the texture and taste."
"OK."
Grandia said coldly: "No need, we've been eating it for so many years and it's fine."
Tang En shook his head: "You are elves, you cannot compare with humans."
The pen in Fiona's hand paused for a moment: "My lord, since you want to follow up, do you want to give this batch of wheat a separate name or code? It's more convenient."
"Oh, yes."
Tang En pondered for a moment: "Since it can only be ripened once every four months, let's call it Sanjimai."
"OK."
Fiona quickly memorized the name.
"Tonight, let's try the taste first, let Tina bake some bread."
Tang En looked at Grandia with a smile: "Great hero, eat more tonight, so that you can work hard tomorrow."
Grandia's lips trembled in anger. If she still didn't know that she was plotted against by Tang En, she would be stupid and hopeless.
That night, Tang En tasted the bread baked by Tina with three-season wheat. The taste was not much different from the usual ones. As for nutrition, Tang En knew neither biology nor chemistry, so of course he couldn't measure it— — To be honest, the alchemy he played had nothing to do with chemistry. Tang En felt that his alchemy was purely a convenient cheat given to him by the gods.
A few days later, other elves came to Ellington. For this reason, Dunn even spared no expense to hold a welcome party. The radio station in the lobby broadcasted the grand event, so that everyone could get a close look at the situation of the elves. It not only eliminates those people's curiosity about the elves, but also allows the elves to integrate into Ellington faster.
After being squeezed by Tang En for a few days, Grandia already wanted to leave here immediately. Now that she saw the sisters of the same clan stepping into this magic cave, she really wanted to muster up the courage to rush up and tell them, and persuade them to turn around and go back. To that peaceful and serene forest.
However, when thinking of the smiling Tang En's unknown and terrifying methods, Grandia couldn't help but tremble all over, and the courage she had finally summoned dissipated again.
"How are you going to arrange these elves?"
Watching those elves enter the grove, Fiona couldn't help but ask, "I'm afraid it's not easy for them to arrange?"
"Who said that?"
Tang En grinned, his confident smile made Fiona dizzy.
"Believe me, I have already made arrangements for them."
Of course, Tang En had already made arrangements for the elves. In this batch of twenty elves, some were good at art design, some were good at writing poems, some were good at painting, some were good at composing music... Speaking of which, elves are simply synonymous with versatility. Their lives have given them too many opportunities to learn, even if they learn a little today and a little next month according to their interests, they can master all fields better than most humans.
Of course, due to the way of life, their vision is also limited, so all kinds of creations are unavoidably petty, but this can all be changed. If there is no Tang En, their talents will only be kept in the elves for their own appreciation , as long as they are slowly trained by Tang En, they will be able to understand their true value.
Tang En showed a satisfied smile.
"My lord? What are you laughing at? I always feel cold."
"It's nothing, you are overthinking."
Tang En rubbed his chin and began to think about how to train these elves.
The promise to Isalie must be put on the agenda as soon as possible, and let her see tangible results, otherwise it will take a long time, and it will be troublesome to recruit more elves.
And regarding cultural transactions, we have to use these elves to get something out as soon as possible, at least change to some Kamla (natural latex plants). Natural latex is very useful and will be used in many industries, so it must be done as soon as possible. You just need to get it. In comparison, the Wisdom Fruit is not so urgent.
Cultural products are easier said than done.
Don't look at the paper, the pen, the writing and painting, but if you want to have a wonderful story, you have to be able to eat between the elves and humans, which is a big problem.
Why do humans have to be able to eat well?
Is there even a question? Since you want to do cultural transactions with the elves, you must print in batches. Since you have to print in batches, how can you give up such a big market in the human world?
The lives of ordinary people in this world of Prandal are very boring. They hardly have any means of entertainment, except sex... Huh? Is this entertainment?
If Tang En released novels and comics at this time, he could seize this blank market and have the right to speak in this regard.
Of course, novels and comics are spiritual entertainment, and their consumption does not improve the overall combat capability and level of this world...
but! yes!
Tang En can completely popularize all kinds of basic knowledge in these cultural works!
Whether it's instilling combat awareness, subtly influencing the entire world, or even hacking the Chaos army directly to make all intelligent creatures more vigilant, these are excellent means!
Only when people start to actively demand new things and want to actively obtain information will their speed of absorbing information increase, and the speed of operation of the entire society will increase.
But what kind of story to tell?
The fairy tales and world classics that Twain is familiar with are obviously not suitable for Prandal. In this high-magic world, many unbelievable stories on Earth are normal, so the range of choices is very small. Magic stories, or... sci-fi stories about Earth they've never seen.
Thinking of this, Dunn smiled.
Yeah, what could be more fascinating than a real world?
He doesn't even need to make too many descriptions, as long as he shows another world vividly, it will have an immeasurable impact on Prandal.
Of course, the creatures here in Prandal have never heard of the various scientific and technological products on the earth—except for those gods—Twain can be true or false, for example, a fictional earth hero who masters the power of science, and then his Enemy villains are all kinds of enemies born in chaos, and in this way tell a real world story in confrontation.
This is totally doable!
Tang En immediately made a decision, and it was so decided. Tomorrow, he will start giving training courses to the elves. The first job for them is to become the original cartoonist and novelist of Prandal!
As for the name of the story...
Tang En smiled slightly, since it was something from another world, let's call it "Things from Another World".
