Ellington was a remote and poor place.
This was the consensus of almost everyone who knew about Ellington, not to mention that there were even more people who didn't know about Ellington in Irus.
So who would care about Lord Ellington's invitation?
Even the poor stone city of Preston to the southeast looked down on Ellington. At least Preston had all kinds of specialty stones for export.
Tang En shook his head with a sigh, "As expected ….. No one cares about the poor in the city and the rich have relatives in the deep mountains ….."
"Sir Lord's analysis really is insightful!"
Fiona deeply agreed, "Before the changes in Ellington spread, we were just poor country bumpkins in the eyes of others, so of course no one was willing to come here. But as the number of people gradually increases, I believe that our fame will become bigger and bigger."
"I hope it's like this."
"But why did you send the invitation?"
"Of course it's to maximize the value of the combine harvester."
Tang En gave a shrug and teased Nola who was playing on the table in boredom, "Because of the Magic Crystal requirement for the combine harvester, we can't sell it to normal people. We can only sell it to those rich nobles and City Lords who control large amounts of farmland. Their purchasing power is enough to maintain the consumption of the combine harvester and I'm certain that the combine harvester is attractive to them, so this is a good chance to earn a large amount of money."
"So it's like this … …"
Fiona was silent for a bit before quickly understanding Tang En's intentions.
"Sir Lord."
Fiona looked up and suddenly revealed a smile, "I have a better idea, do you want to hear it?"
Tang En's eyes lit up, "A better idea? Of course I want to hear it! "
"Then ….. Then I have a condition … …"
Fiona's cheeks were a bit red as she played with her fingers a bit shyly.
When she said this, even she couldn't believe how she had suddenly mustered up the courage to say it.
"What condition? Speak. "
Tang En laughed and said, "As long as your method is really effective, you will definitely be rewarded. Do you want gold coins? Or magic equipment? Or … Oh! I understand now! "
The smiling Tang En clapped his hands, and Fiona's heart immediately thumped wildly.
He understood?
He understood!?
He, he, what would he do?
Would, would, would he kiss her?
What, what should I do?
Fiona was so nervous that her mind went blank. She didn't know what to do at all. She could only subconsciously tiptoe closer to Tang En. She pursed her lips slightly, closed her eyes, and waited for the moment to come …
"Wait a minute."
What are you waiting for?
Fiona was embarrassed and anxious. Didn't he know that this position was very embarrassing?
How hateful of a man are you to make a girl wait in such a position!
How could I fall for you!?
Hateful, hateful, hateful!
Fiona, who thought that she was being played with by Tang En, didn't notice what Tang En was doing.
After a while, Tang En took out a magic book and said with a laugh, "It's my negligence. After you awakened your talent, I haven't had the time to formally teach you magic. You must want to learn magic, right? I don't have time to teach you, so … Here, this is the magic book I copied for Elijah. It's a guide to learning tier-0 magic and tier-1 practical magic. Take a look … Fiona? "
A strange smile that was difficult to detect flashed through Tang En's eyes. He looked at her with a surprised expression and asked, "What are you doing?"
Hearing Tang En's words, Fiona finally understood how big the difference between a man's and a woman's thinking was …
At this moment, Fiona's heart was filled with shame, anger, and grief. She grabbed the magic book and had the urge to paste the book on Tang En's face.
It was such a good atmosphere, such a good opportunity, but he cared about magic?
Magic, magic! To hell with magic!
Why didn't he become a mage his whole life!
— — Even if it's to learn magic, what's the meaning of giving me a magic book that Elijah used before?!
Don't you know to give me a new one?!
Even giving me a secondhand book … How much is he looking down on me?!
To think that I thought that he had finally been enlightened. Now, it seems that he is a complete idiot from head to toe!
After scolding Tang En for tens of thousands of words in her heart, Fiona squeezed out a smile on her face and said, "It's nothing, thank you for your magic book, Sir Lord."
"You're welcome, this is what I should do."
Tang En said with a laugh, "Since I helped you awaken your talent as a mage, then I should be responsible for you to the end."
It's good to be responsible, but I don't want this kind of responsibility …
Fiona wanted to cry but had no tears. At this moment, she couldn't muster up the courage no matter what.
"Can you tell me your method now?"
Tang En got up and made a cup of tea for Fiona.
Even though Fiona was full of complaints, her excellent professionalism immediately got her into the mood and began to explain.
"Sir Lord, you sent these invitations to the lords and nobles with the intention of letting them see the powerful function of the combine harvester, understand the great significance it represents, and then have the idea of buying the combine harvester, right?"
"That's right."
"But you didn't consider the time it would take for them to come here from their own territory."
Tang En was startled and nodded. It was indeed an oversight.
This wasn't Earth. Ordinary people couldn't take a car or a plane to another place, let alone enjoy the benefits of teleportation magic.
"Even if we ignore the time difference, it's another question whether or not we can invite them. We may not be able to see a single person in the end … After all, this is Ellington."
Tang En and Fiona sighed together. Nola glanced at them and felt bored. She curled her lips and went to sleep in the drawer.
"So, the best way is to take the initiative."
"Take the initiative …"
Tang En pondered, and a hazy idea gradually surfaced in his mind.
"That's right."
Fiona's eyes glowed and said excitedly, "Now that we have such a powerful mechanical tool as the combine harvester, we can use it to make Ellington famous!"
"We can use the combine harvester to form a caravan of the Datang Chamber of Commerce and set off from Ellington. Along the way, we can provide the services of harvesting farmland for the nobles and lords to make money. At the same time, we can also promote Ellington. In this way, the places we go will know that Ellington is not what it used to be!"
"As for the cost of harvesting farmland, I can assure you, my lord. Once the nobles and lords who have large areas of abandoned farmland see the power of the combine harvester, they will definitely not be stingy to spend some gold coins in exchange for higher efficiency. They will liberate their farmers and let them play a greater role."
"At the same time, after they see the efficiency of the combine harvester, they will definitely be tempted and will propose to buy it. At that time, we can tell them to come to Ellington if they want to buy it. I think Ellington will definitely welcome a peak period of visitors."
Tang En clapped his hands. "The combine harvester caravan!"
What caravan? Wasn't Fiona's idea to form a combine harvester caravan?
Tang En was also confused. He only cared about the imitation … Hmm! Invention, it was an invention, but he forgot about it.
Should I say that she was worthy of being the last descendant of the Rosa d 'Oro family? As soon as she saw the combine harvester, she thought of the business opportunity in it … Her business sense had crushed many people.
"This method is absolutely feasible!"
Tang En immediately made the decision. "Let's do it!"
Of course, Tang En was not worried about the feasibility of the business model that had been proven on Earth. Such a service business model was probably the first to appear in Prandal.
Seeing that her method was approved, Fiona showed a happy smile. "I will draft the relevant plan tomorrow. Next, the production of the combine harvester and the driver's training."
"Don't worry about the production. We have already mobilized people. These days, the focus has been shifted to the production of the combine harvester. It won't be a problem to produce dozens of units in two days."
"As for the training, you don't have to worry about it. As long as you have a normal IQ, you can operate it after simple instructions."
Tang En was not worried about the driver's problem. After all, the combine harvester was not fast. Because there was no rubber, it could not produce tires. Therefore, it used a caterpillar design. There was no doubt about the stability, and it was much more convenient to drive.
"In that case, I am relieved."
After Fiona finished speaking, the room suddenly fell into silence.
The awkward silence made her restless. Her eyes frequently drifted to Tang En's face. But what about this guy? It seemed that he did not feel awkward at all. He did not intend to break the silence at all. He just sat there and drank tea leisurely …
"I'm going to sleep!"
Fiona stood up angrily, slammed the door and left after throwing down the words.
"So angry …"
Tang En had a baffled look on his face. Of course, whether he was truly baffled or not, only he could guess it clearly.
Nola poked her head out of the drawer. "What do you think?"
"How would I know?"
"He, he."
Nola curled her lips. Even she couldn't keep looking at Tang En like this.
He was clearly acting like a lovestruck fool in front of Aiguin, but now his EQ was in the negative?
Who would believe that … …
It was very clear that Nola thought that Tang En was deliberately acting dumb. Although she didn't know why he was doing this, he definitely wasn't as kind and pure as he seemed. Hidden under that "slow" face, it was very likely that there was another face … …
"Forget it, this isn't important ….. Go to sleep, I'm going to work overtime."
Tang En waved his hand and piles of materials appeared in the room.
He wanted to make the Magic Array Press for the Magic Engine tonight and then the Magic Engine could be mass produced.
After this matter was taken care of, the next step was for Tang En to prepare for his trip to the Emerald Forest with Brian.
This was what he was looking forward to the most.
