That's right, Frank had been vigilant, suspecting that there was poison in the feces ….. Ah pei! He suspected that Tang En was cheating, but he never thought that he would be tricked in the end!
The policies were real, the City of Silver's technological innovation was real, and the shrinking of the market was real, but …..
The luxury goods policy that had the most impact on prices had been rejected!
Although the market had shrunk, just this alone was enough to stabilize the chaotic Magic Crystal market price!
However, what Frank did not expect was the information revealed in the interview that Twain released. It was this information that made Frank smell a trace of something unusual.
"Baron Tang En, the Datang Chamber of Commerce's reputation wasn't that high before, so what gave you the confidence that you would succeed and decisively enter the Alinx market?"
"This naturally came from my confidence in our Great Tang Magic Engineering Research Institute. Our Datang Chamber of Commerce has a professional research institute that specializes in developing the newest and most convenient equipment. Our service philosophy is customer first and our belief is that magic can change lives!"
"Oh? We can understand that customer first, but what does' magic can change lives' mean? "
"Magic, of course it's referring to magic energy. In our current lives, whether it is farming, transportation, mining, or anything else, we all use manpower. But our Magic Engineering Research Institute has been focused on research and painstakingly researched, finally developing a method to efficiently use magic energy. "
"Oh? This sounds like good news, can Baron Tang En explain it to us? "
"It's actually very simple. As everyone knows, the world we live in, Prandal, is rich in mineral resources. The Magic Crystal mine is one of the treasures of our world, but because of the requirements of using the Magic Crystal, the use of the Magic Crystal has always been limited to the circle of magicians."
"But I am very honoured to announce to everyone that our Datang Chamber of Commerce has solved the biggest problem of the Magic Crystal for civilian use!"
"We have already successfully used our new concept to produce Magic Air Conditioners, Magic Water Heaters, Magic Refrigerators, and other Magic Furniture products. These are all powered by Magic Crystals, so all the friends who have used them should know how durable and stable our products are."
"Now, I also want to announce another piece of news. Other than the Magic Furniture Factory, our Ellington has also built a Magic Machine Factory. Our newest product is the Magic Combine Harvester that can greatly increase the efficiency of harvesting!"
"That's right, perhaps some people with good information have already heard that our Datang Chamber of Commerce's Magic Combine Harvester is currently touring the entire country, providing farm harvesting services."
"That giant mechanical construct is the Magic Energy Combine Harvester that we made. It is also powered by Magic Crystals!"
"A farmer needs several days to harvest a single hectare of a farmer's farm, but with this Combine Magic Combine Harvester, a farmer can easily harvest several hectares of farmland in a single day! This is an epoch-making increase in harvesting efficiency! "
"An increase in harvesting efficiency means that for the same number of farmers, the amount of land they can farm will greatly increase. The grain yield will greatly increase, the nation's population will steadily increase, and the overall strength will steadily increase ….. The significance of this is just too great, so I don't need to say anything else."
"But this is only an increase in harvesting efficiency. Farming still needs to be done manually, so this still limits our agricultural efficiency."
"This is my fault, I didn't finish. Actually, our Great Tang Magic Machine Factory has already begun producing a full set of agricultural magic machines. Not only are there Combine Harvesters, we are also producing Magic Cultivators, Magic Sprinklers, and etc. With the help of our magic machines, our productivity will increase by several dozen times!"
"Is it really that amazing?"
"Of course! I dare guarantee that after our customers use it once, they definitely won't be able to live without it! If you are tempted, if you have the intention to buy, please immediately go to the Datang Chamber of Commerce and place your order. Now, our orders are already scheduled for three months later. If we are any slower, we won't be able to make it in time for next year's spring harvest. If we are one step behind others, we will fall behind. Do you want to become rich? Now is the best opportunity! "
The study was silent. Only the rapid and heavy breathing of Frank and Charles could be heard.
"Finished reading?"
"Finished reading."
"What thoughts?" "Yes."
Charles clenched his fist. "Tang En must die!"
"I didn't expect this ….. I really didn't expect this ….."
Frank rubbed his eyebrows. Although he knew that Victor and Tang En would definitely have something up their sleeves, he didn't expect it to be such a fatal blow!
Magic machines? Although he didn't understand what it was, just based on the information that Tang En revealed, it had an extraordinary meaning.
A machine that could be mass produced, could replace human labor, and far surpassed human labor. At the same time, it was powered by Magic Crystals. Its cost was cheaper than slaves, and it wouldn't resist or betray anyone …..
Even for him, faced with such superior conditions, even Frank's heart skipped a beat. There was no need to mention the other nobles.
The nobles who mainly sold slaves for a living were panicking because Tang En's combined harvester would greatly reduce the value of slaves.
The nobles who had to buy large amounts of slaves to maintain their farms were happy. Saving costs meant increasing profits, so of course they were happy to use this new technology.
"Damn … …"
Charles cursed, "No wonder they didn't hesitate to take the Magic Crystal mine. I never thought that Tang En would actually make this kind of thing!"
"That's right ….. Who would have thought?"
Frank muttered to himself. He thought of Victor's support for Tang En. Could it be that he already knew that Tang En had this kind of ability, so he supported him?
Thinking of Tang En and Victor working together and forcing him to sell the mine, Frank had the urge to spit out blood.
No one was a fool, the only difference was the length of their vision.
Tang En had the initiative, so he knew what he was doing. But Frank didn't know, so he could only guess and infer. But in the end, he failed and Tang En won.
What he pushed forward was a new era of Magic Crystals …..
Frank didn't need to think too much to guess just how important the Magic Crystals would be in this era. If he was the one who promoted the development of magic machines, he would use all kinds of methods to monopolize all the Magic Crystals in his hands.
"Tang En … …"
Frank clenched his fists. Now, Tang En had gone from an unknown little baron to an enemy that was no less important than Victor, Aubry, and Adrian.
"Lord father."
"I know ….. He will be a huge stumbling block for us."
Frank quietly said, "Tang En must die."
Just as the Cadier Family was in a state of chaos because of Tang En's piece of news, the market's reaction was just as Tang En had expected. The price of Magic Crystals had recovered.
Although many people had yet to see the magical machines, they were still doubtful of the credibility of the news. However, merchants were merchants after all. After experiencing the price collapse, they would not let go of any good news. Therefore, they spontaneously began to organize a rescue operation.
The price of Magic Crystals steadily rose. Although it hadn't returned to its normal price, it at least gave many merchants who were on the verge of bankruptcy some hope, so they worked hard to hold on.
Tang En didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Because many of those merchants were members of the Irus Trade Union.
They were trying to ban him, but in the end?
In the end, it was the news he released that saved them … …
"My Lord, according to your suggestion, we'll rotate three shifts into production. The production capacity of the combine harvester production line has reached saturation, but we still have a lot of orders. We won't be able to produce them before next year's spring harvest … … In these three months, it'll be very difficult to meet the needs of the Cadier Family."
"Then increase the production line."
Tang En waved his hand. "Since the news has been released and the mine is in our hands, it's time for our development to take off."
"You mean … …"
"Not only the combine harvester, but the other magic machines will also be sold."
Tang En said, "I want the name of Ellington to spread to everyone's ears!"
Fiona said with a bitter smile, "That's a great ambition, but … … we don't have that many people available."
The population of Ellington had exceeded ten thousand, but it was far from enough because most of the people were busy with construction outside. It was impossible for them to join the production of the factory.
What about the production line of the factory? The production efficiency couldn't be compared to that of Earth because Tang En couldn't create intelligent machines.
If only there was a computer … …
Without a computer, without programs, in a place where there was no information foundation, how could he create intelligent mechanical arms like those on Earth to increase the repetitive processing efficiency?
"Damn!"
Tang En suddenly scolded himself. "Why am I wasting my time on an insignificant problem again!"
Then, Tang En excitedly said to Fiona, "There's no problem with manpower. I can solve this."
Fiona was startled. "How?"
Tang En grinned. "There are two ways. Do you think having more elemental creatures in our territory will give us more personality, or more alchemy puppets will give us more style?"
Elemental creatures?
Alchemy puppets?
Fiona was stunned for a moment. Suddenly, her eyes widened and her face was full of shock. "You mean, use them to replace the workers!?"
Tang En snapped his fingers and smiled brightly. "Congratulations, you got it right."
