Chapter 403 Goblins Are All Arms Dealers
"Stop expansion temporarily? Why?"
Fiona looked confused: "With the current development speed, we will soon be able to include Ladia Hills within the scope of the new city. There is no need to slow down."
"The pace of development is very fast, but haven't you noticed that the population in the new urban area is very sparse? It is almost turning into a ghost town."
Tang En spread his hands: "Our development speed is much faster than other cities. The population diversion and growth rate cannot keep up with the development speed. Next, it is time to consolidate the internal construction."
After the urban expansion is completed, the internal facilities will become much more important. After all, these internal facilities are truly related to the happiness of the people living here.
Green spaces, public toilets, direct drinking water, parks, convenience stores, public bicycle rental points...
Tang En completely planned the entire new Ellington in the style of a modern city. Of course, the modern planning style was blended with the architectural style of the magical world, and the style of painting was a bit weird. But besides Tang En, who else would Do you know this?
"In short, in the past few days, you should re-arrange the focus of human resources allocation and the work arrangements of those people."
After Tang En finished speaking, he stood up: "I will go back to Shahela after I prepare the things. I will come back after getting the magic elimination stone. The focus of the next step of the work will be tilted, but I will wait until I come back. arrange."
Fiona nodded, sat on the chair again, and relaxed the tense nerves of the past few days. Tina next to her had always had red eyes since she returned to Ellington. She thought she would die there before. What about the underworld?
"Lord Lord!"
At this time, Marlene, who was staying at the Lord's Mansion, hurried over and stopped Tang En who was about to leave: "I, I, I have something very important to report!"
"You take a breath first before you talk..."
Tang En stopped and waited for Marlene to take a few breaths before he asked, "What's so urgent?"
"Yes, it's like this... A few days after you took people to the underground world, the manager of Star Diamond Bank came. The goblin manager named Galion Bakugan has been looking for you these days. ."
Gallian Blast? That goblin manager who welcomed him at the Yalinks Star Diamond Bank branch? Why did he come to Ellington?
Tang En was stunned, suddenly thought of something, and was overjoyed: "Where is he now?"
"Staying at the Heart of Oak Tavern."
Tang En immediately rushed to the Heart of Oak Tavern.
Old Tom and Aunt Fanny were surprised when they saw Tang En, and immediately came over to salute: "Lord!"
"Which room is Galion Bakugan in?"
"I will lead the Lord there."
Old Tom immediately and diligently led the way. Thanks to Tang En's drastic reforms and the promotion of various welfare policies, the living standards of Ellington residents are rising day by day. Coupled with the improvement of Ellington's overall productivity, it has attracted a large number of people. Foreigners settled here.
The increase in fixed residents has also attracted a lot of floating population, and adventurers passing nearby will no longer choose to take long detours, but come to Ellington for supplies.
Therefore, the Heart of Oak Tavern, which has been influenced by many aspects, is now Ellington's most popular tavern and resting place - no way, Ellington only has one tavern and hotel, and monopoly business is so profitable.
After sending Tang En to the door of Gallian's room, Old Tom withdrew, and Tang En knocked on the door.
"Please come in."
Sure enough it was him.
Tang En smiled slightly and pushed the door open.
"Well... what an exquisite design... it's simply the work of a god..."
As soon as he entered the door, Tang En saw Galian lying next to the table studying magic appliances. Several poor magic appliances had been dismantled to pieces.
"If you damage the property of the tavern, you will be charged triple compensation."
"I'm not broken, I can assemble it - Oh! Dunn! My friend! You are finally back!"
Gallian suddenly came to his senses, turned around and rushed towards Tang En with a loud laugh. His sharp voice startled Tang En.
Why is this guy so excited?
"Manager Gallian, I didn't expect you to come to Ellington. I hope my people have not caused you any injustice."
"Wronged? No! Of course not!"
Gallian shook his head with a sharp voice: "It's unexpectedly good here! Really! I never expected to see humans, dwarves and those stupid dwarves living together - oh! I even saw elemental creatures Working here! It’s incredible!”
The corner of Tang En's mouth twitched, and while praising Ellington, he did not forget to belittle the dwarf. As expected, these two races have been at odds since the big explosion in ancient times.
"Thanks for the compliment, I feel honored."
Tang En paused, and just as he was about to speak, Galian laughed and said, "——Besides, I am no longer the manager."
"oh?"
Tang En smiled slightly and knew what he was thinking: "I guess, maybe... the branch manager?"
"As expected of my friend! You are so smart! You should be a goblin!"
Tang En was speechless. These guys really liked to put money on their faces.
"I am honored to inform you of the news, my friend, that the application I submitted has finally received a reply from the headquarters!"
Galian screamed and cheered: "After discussions and field observations, the headquarters finally approved the application to build a branch in Ellington, and I will be honored to be the first branch president!"
In Star Diamond Bank, promotion from manager to branch president is not as simple as employee promotion. It requires multiple performance appraisals, which is why Galian is so excited.
"Congratulations...wait! Field observation? When?"
Tang En was stunned. He had never received an observer from Star Diamond Bank before.
"A month ago."
After Galian thought for a moment, he said: "Observers generally don't reveal their identities. Dragons always like to change their identities and travel around the world. It's normal if you don't know."
"You mean, the observer is a giant dragon? And he's wandering around my territory?"
Tang En took a breath of air, and a giant dragon circled around Ellington, but he didn't know it. Fortunately, the other party didn't plan to do anything, otherwise Ellington would have been destroyed instantly!
"That's right, the observers of Star Diamond Bank are all dragons, and they will be stationed in the branches permanently in the future. There will be a dragon observer in each branch to supervise, of course, and more importantly, for daily auditing."
Gallian complained: "Otherwise, do you think it's easy to do business with those big guys? They are so careful that they don't look like giant creatures - they can figure out which day there is a gold coin missing from the account. !”
"And it is always very difficult for customers to withdraw money. You should also know how difficult it is for them to spit out the gold coins that have entered the dragon's treasure house. But the circulation of gold coins is to earn more gold coins. They clearly understand this. Yes, they are too stingy!?"
Tang En's views were refreshed once again. This was the first time he heard a goblin scold a giant dragon for being stingy...
Isn’t this a miser scolding an iron rooster?
But no matter what, Star Diamond Bank is opening to Ellington, which is a good thing after all.
When Tang En saw that Galian was still unfinished, he hurriedly said: "Manager Galian..."
Noticing Galian's expression, Tang En paused, then hurriedly changed his words: "President Galian."
Galian then beamed.
"Actually, I have an important urgent matter that I need your help with."
"Oh? It doesn't matter, just tell me!"
Galian waved his hand heartily: "With the relationship between us, the loan amount is easy to negotiate!"
"Uh, not a loan."
Tang En wiped his cold sweat. Who can afford the loans provided by the Goblin and Dragon Banks...
"Actually, it's like this. I heard my chief craftsman Nokia mention the goblin technology a long time ago. I admire your innovative technological strength very much -"
Gallian immediately said proudly: "That's inevitable! Time is money! Explosion is art! Those idiots of the dwarfs can only mess around. If they hadn't held them back, our ancestors would have sailed into the sea of stars! If an egg hatched If there is a duck, it must be the fault of the dwarf technology!"
Damn it! ? The goblin's journey was to the stars and the sea! ?
Damn it! ? Durandon was indeed right about what he said!
Tang En wiped his cold sweat again and said: "Although I know that you are the president of the bank, you are the only familiar goblin friend I have now, so I can only ask you for this unkind invitation... I want to buy it. A batch of high-explosive bombs."
As soon as he heard Tang En's request, Galian's eyes flashed with golden light. Tang En only felt a whirlwind blowing by, and then Galian in front of him changed into another outfit at lightning speed, which was different from the previous elegant outfit. In contrast, at this moment, Galian was dressed in pitch black, with fake scars on his green skin. He was holding a thick cigar in his mouth and puffing away smoke.
"Dear customer, what type of goods do you need? - Oh, don't mind, these cigars are harmless decorative props."
Gallian pressed the brim of his hat: "We have micro-engineering explosives specifically for mining, special weakened versions of fireworks for performances, trigger mines specially used for battlefield traps and ambushes, and enhanced super kamikaze explosives... Oh, by the way, if you need landmines, I would especially recommend the newly developed magic iron mines to you. The magicized shell will produce an amazing power bonus in the explosion - of course, the price is also more expensive..."
Tang En looked at the transformed Galian and was stunned: "Aren't you the president of Star Diamond Bank? Why are you still in the arms business?"
From a gentle bank president to an arms dealer, the contrast was so great that Tang En couldn't accept it.
"Tsk, tsk, my guest, your views are outdated...Who said bank presidents can't do arms business?"
Galian blew out a smoke ring and smiled proudly: "Because I am the president of a bank, I can do the arms business like a fish in water!"
