The reaction of the Prandal Chamber of Commerce was similar to Tang En's prediction. Although they knew that he might have ulterior motives, many Chamber of Commerce immediately went to inquire about the patent authorization under the temptation of the huge benefits.
What followed was naturally the development that Tang En was happy to see.
The industrialization of production originally took a very long time to develop, but Prandal had Tang En's imagination and the power of magic. In the absence of basic industry and technology, they directly achieved high precision in processing. After manually molding the first generation of various processing machines, they could slowly develop technical standards with higher precision in the future.
It was because of Tang En's help that Prandal could achieve exponential development speed. With the power of these Chamber of Commerce, he could help the whole world complete the industrial revolution, or the magic industrial revolution, in a very short time.
"Let everyone join the standards you set and expand the scale of the development of the whole industry. Is this what you want to achieve?"
Fiona pinched her eyebrows and secretly shook her head. She still did not understand why Tang En was so active in supporting other Chamber of Commerce to enter the industry.
"Yes," Tang En shook the teacup, and his eyes seemed to have lost focus. "Fiona, we have to admit that many things can't be done by one person. There's strength in numbers. This sentence is never wrong. A prosperous and healthy world is what I want to see, not a dead and decaying world."
Elsa next to him was confused. Why did the Lord say that the world was dead?
The natives living in this world certainly did not understand how strange their world was. This kind of strangeness could only be clearly observed by Tang En as a bystander.
Elijah's cheeks puffed up. She wanted to show her existence by being angry, but in the end, she could only lower her head in frustration. This was because Tang En and Fiona were discussing business and did not have time to tease her.
Fiona touched her head, tilted her head and asked, "But, what's in it for us? It will only increase the number of competitors. "
Tang En smiled, put down the cup, and said slowly, "Fiona, I have to tell you a truth, and you have to understand it."
"Please go ahead."
"In business activities, fourth-rate enterprises … uh, Chamber of Commerce, sell coolies, third-rate Chamber of Commerce sell products, second-rate Chamber of Commerce sell brands, and first-rate Chamber of Commerce sell standards." After saying these words with a smile, Tang En closed his mouth and quietly looked at Fiona, letting her understand first.
Fiona frowned and thought for a moment, and suddenly realized: "According to what you mean, many Chamber of Commerce in Irus are only third-rate or fourth-rate Chamber of Commerce, and there are no second-rate chambers of Commerce?"
"Of course there are.
Just as Fiona showed a suspicious expression, she saw Tang En pointing at her: "Our Datang Chamber of Commerce."
Fiona recalled the various measures that Tang En had arranged before, whether it was the logo on the Datang Chamber of Commerce's products, or the deliberately added lines of the Datang Chamber of Commerce in publicity, these things were all to serve the purpose of building a brand.
Although the Datang Chamber of Commerce had not become a so-called famous brand, it already had the meaning that it represented — novel and rare things.
That's right. Now, when the residents in Alinx, Bein, and even Kasparmi talked about the Datang Chamber of Commerce, their first impression was that it would sell some unexpected and novel things that were very useful.
Although some things in the Datang Chamber of Commerce were indeed very expensive, everyone could not deny that those things were really useful.
For example, the very convenient magical kettle completely changed people's habit of drinking hot water, and they no longer had to deliberately light a fire to boil water. There was also the magical hairdryer, which allowed people to dry their hair immediately after taking a shower …
What made the civilians envious the most was the combination of a water system and a water heater that Ellington had mentioned in the Datang Daily's publicity.
With water and a water heater, they could enjoy a clean water source without leaving their homes, and they could have hot water whenever they wanted, and they could take a shower whenever they wanted. It was simply incredible!
But it was useless to be envious, because only Ellington had a water system now, and it was said that it was modified with the help of dwarf engineers. In other cities, there were not even many ordinary dwarves, let alone dwarf engineers. Who would be so influential as to invite them to help?
So far, there was only Tang En!
"In fact, strictly speaking, we are not a second-rate chamber of commerce now, because our brand has not been completely formed yet."
Tang En waved his hand and explained, "A real brand is a new product that is launched. No matter what it is, customers will rush to buy it. The reason is only because the brand is strong enough, worshipped enough, and made people proud to own the brand's products."
Fiona and the others were stunned. Was there really a chamber of commerce in this world that could do this?
"It's incredible … If this is a second-rate chamber of commerce, then how terrifying would a first-rate chamber of commerce be …"
Fiona looked yearning. "Even in the heyday of the Rosa d 'Oro family, it was only between a second-rate and a third-rate chamber of commerce."
"No, it's the opposite."
Tang En shook his head. "First-rate chambers of commerce are more low-key. They generally don't sell anything publicly, and they rarely advertise their presence. But no one can ignore their importance, because they set the standards of the industry, which is the rules of the industry."
Fiona suddenly squeezed the hand holding the cup and said excitedly, "Setting the rules of the game means becoming the controller, the emperor of the industry — is that what you mean?"
"That's right."
Tang En nodded with a smile. "This metaphor is very appropriate. Once you become the one who sets the rules of the game, then all the participants who want to enter this industry to make money will need your approval and authorization. The huge market and profits will make everyone crazy, and these people and chambers of commerce who want to make money will be the target of the first-rate chamber of commerce."
"So you want to promote this intellectual property protection law? And authorize others to use your patent? "
Grandia curled her lips. "It sounds great, but it's for yourself in the end."
The smile on Tang En's face paused for a moment, and then became even more brilliant. "Every man for himself …"
After that, Tang En turned to Fiona and said, "I think we still don't have enough food for winter. How about we open up another hundred and eighty hectares of farmland?"
Grandia immediately became anxious. "What do you mean! You said it's enough! "
"It's not me."
Tang En said righteously. "Besides, don't you know how many people are pouring into Ellington every day? How many merchants have heard that this wheat is grown by the elves and have gone crazy to stock it up? Because of their crazy purchases, we're going to turn from food importers to food exporters! "
"It's just food, is it necessary to be so exaggerated?"
"It's not food, it's food grown by the 'elves'!"
Tang En emphasized the word 'elves'. To the current humans, anything related to elves meant romance and beauty. It was especially high and mighty. In addition, the food was indeed grown by Grandia. In order to store it, she even made a special report. With this report signed by Grandia, even if the food was grown by a bumpkin, those black-hearted merchants would say that it was grown by a beautiful elven beauty.
"Hmph! You just want to bully me! "
Grandia snorted coldly. "When I see Lady Aiguin and Her Majesty the Queen, I'll definitely report to them!"
"Up to you … Oh, we have a guest."
Tang En spread his hands, and then looked at the window with a smile. "Next time you come in, remember to use the main door. Otherwise, if I have a whim and set a few traps here, you'll return to Gerrit's embrace."
A silver light suddenly flashed in front of the window, and Night Song, who had disappeared for several days, appeared out of thin air.
Looking at the current Night Song, Tang En's mood was very strange. He clearly knew that she was Princess Aurelia, but this mysterious outfit filled her with a different kind of charm.
The black close-fitting leather jacket and shorts clung to her body perfectly without any extra material. The leather that was tanned with special methods could reduce friction and impact, protecting her body very well. At the bottom of the leather boots, the layer of soft and durable beast fur could absorb a lot of sound, allowing her to quietly approach the target.
This set of equipment that could be used by thieves and assassins was worth at least ten thousand gold coins.
Of course, compared to the strange dagger on her body, it was not worth mentioning at all. If she met someone who needed that dagger that could instantly teleport 30 metres away, it would not be an exaggeration to say how much it could be sold for.
"You lost."
Night Song had no intention of being polite with Tang En at all. She was tossing up and down in her hand, the badge of the Datang Chamber of Commerce that she had stolen from Tang En a few days ago.
"That's … impossible!"
Tang En was' shocked '. He touched his pocket with a look of disbelief, and then looked at Night Song with a' shocked expression '. "I've always been on guard against you. When did you do it!?"
Seeing Tang En's expression, Night Song, who had been sullen for a long time, finally had an inexplicable sense of pleasure. She sneered and said, "Guess it yourself. I'll never tell you."
After saying that, Night Song threw the badge to Tang En, and then raised her head high like a proud little swan. "You said such harsh words, but in the end, you're just like this! Now I've won, so in the future, you can't expose my secret, and you can't interfere with my actions, and you can't affect my work. If necessary, you have to cooperate with me! "
Tang En laughed in his heart, but his expression was flustered and exasperated. "I can't cooperate with a thief!"
"Oh?"
Night Song stared at Tang En's face, and her eyes were full of ridicule. "Don't tell me that the president of the Datang Chamber of Commerce, the lord of Ellington, Count Tang En, is actually a guy who doesn't keep his word?"
This idiot …
The news of my promotion to count hasn't been made public yet …
Tang En sighed in his heart, and after pretending to be annoyed for a while, he gritted his teeth and said unwillingly, "Fine! This time, I've lost! "
Night Song revealed a victorious smile and extended her right hand to Tang En.
