What needed to be solved by Ellington was naturally the training of the personnel.
After selling so many patent authorizations this time, it was obvious that Ellington would welcome a large influx of foreign personnel. This was because these patented technologies could only be fully trained in Ellington so far.
"I understand. I will make a budget analysis of the accommodation and food in advance and prepare according to the highest quality. Those people will definitely be stunned when they come to Ellington and feel at home."
Seeing so many gold coins in her pocket, Fiona was in high spirits and didn't care about spending such a small amount of money at all.
"Don't treat everyone equally."
"Ah?"
"Don't forget our purpose."
Tang En smiled faintly. "We need to instruct Brian and the others in advance to dig out the hidden experience and skills of those people during the training process. If possible, we need to poach them as well. Those who intend to stay in Ellington will be able to enjoy better treatment. As for those who do not wish to stay, they can enjoy it, but they will have to pay for it themselves. As for the price, this is a long-term business after all. For the sake of a long-term profit, we can't set it too expensive. Let's set the standard of living at one gold coin per day during the training."
Fiona and Vanilla were dumbfounded. "They bought the patent authorizations and then sent people to learn, but we are poaching people behind their backs. Is it really good to be so insidious?"
"This is not called insidious."
Tang En shook his finger and corrected them seriously. "Water flows downwards, and people walk upwards. If we can give them a better development future, why don't they come to us? I am openly recruiting talents! "
This is called recruiting talents?
Fiona's mouth twitched. She dared to guarantee that if they really did that, Ellington's Datang Chamber of Commerce would probably become the target of all the other chambers of commerce.
"Of course, we can't go overboard. If we poach all the people who come to Ellington, probably no one will dare to buy our patent authorizations in the future."
Tang En smiled and said, "Therefore, we only poach the elites of the elites. Only the real talents will receive our offer."
"What is Opher?"
"It was a slip of the tongue. Don't mind it."
After the patent authorization auction ended, Tang En went to Victor and told him about the results of the first day's auction and the income of the Copyright Department. After seeing the real income, Victor happily invited Tang En to stay for afternoon tea. Then, the two of them secretly discussed some things. It was just the two of them. This time, even Princess Aurelia could not sneak in by acting coquettishly.
Tang En did not leave the castle until the evening. As for what he and Victor had discussed, no one knew.
Then, Tang En and Fiona returned to Ellington together.
It would take at least 3-4 days for those chambers of commerce who had purchased the patent authorization to arrange for the trainees to be trained. It would take at least 15 days to travel from Alinx to Ellington by carriage. Even if they traveled through the night, they could only shorten the time by 5 days. That was to say, Ellington had at least 15 days to prepare.
"Everyone, do you understand? In this half a month, you must increase your efficiency and complete the construction of the apartment area as soon as possible. "
"Understood!"
"The infrastructure team must complete the sewer project in the entire area within a week. If there is a shortage of manpower, you can ask for the assistance of the Earth Elementals from Sir Dichaoris."
"We promise to complete the task!"
"Greening team, I will give you three days to complete the green belt and park near the apartments according to Miss Ellie's design. Any questions?"
Several delicate elven beauties nodded in unison. "No."
"Supporting facilities team, reconfirm the completion of your work, especially the supporting facilities of the apartment area. Trash cans every 100 meters, street signs every 500 meters, public toilets every 1,000 meters … If there is any part of the supporting facilities that is not fully covered, remember to report it immediately. Do not let these missing facilities affect the overall image of Ellington!"
"Understood! We will check it carefully! "
"Inspecting team, check the progress of the project every day and give me a summary report in the evening. Whoever slacks off will have their bonus deducted. I am informing you in advance that this month's bonus is quite generous!"
"No problem!"
The person in charge of the inspecting team, the former leader of the Cross Roses Mercenary Group, Locke patted his chest and promised. Then he rubbed his hands and laughed. "Miss Fiona, can you tell us in advance how much this month's bonus will be?"
Fiona glanced at Locke and said expressionlessly, "Of course — not."
Locke's face fell.
"In any case, you will not be disappointed. Work hard and the count will not mistreat you."
Fiona clapped her hands and said loudly, "With the return of the joint harvest convoy, they have brought with them a large number of outsiders. These people are not only unstable factors, but also the foundation of Ellington's development. As long as we properly reform them, we will have a large number of usable manpower. So, please be careful. Do not give the outsiders too much pressure, but also do not let them look down on us!"
"Of course, hehe. If they dare to look down on us, we will let them know the power of Ellington!"
Fiona smiled and said, "Everyone should have noticed that the count's plan has succeeded. The extensive publicity of the joint harvest convoy has brought us a large number of people, but this is only the beginning!"
"During the Glorious Festival, the count's event in Alinx was an unprecedented success. The Tang Daily's Alinx branch has also become famous thanks to Karl's efforts. Now, Ellington — no, to be precise, the Datang Chamber of Commerce — has become the star chamber of commerce in Alinx."
"The patent auction this time was very successful. This proves that the count has always led Ellington in the development of technology. It is a technology that all merchants are envious of, and it also proves that the count has always been on the right path. Therefore, as long as we remain united by the count's side and follow his lead, Ellington will definitely walk towards prosperity and glory!"
"Follow the count's lead!"
"Obey the count's orders!"
"Walk towards prosperity!"
"Walk towards glory!"
After a pause, Fiona continued, "In the coming month, it will be the most crucial month in the history of Ellington. We will welcome a large number of people from the outside world. Among them will be the elites sent by the major chambers of commerce in Alinx to learn. There will also be traveling merchants who have heard the news and are looking for business opportunities. There will even be curious adventurers and tourists."
"Therefore, I will once again make a serious request. In the coming month, no, from now on, the overall quality of the citizens of Ellington must be improved!"
"We must let the people outside know that the Ellington of today is no longer the Ellington of the past. Now, we are living a life that is not inferior to theirs. Some of the things that we have are even envied by them!"
"Look at the miracle that we have created! This town called Ellington was just a dilapidated and backward town a few months ago. Now, look at the neat streets, the smooth roads, and the beautiful houses. These are all built with our efforts! "
Fiona pointed at the new city outside the window and said loudly, "Isn't this something that we should be proud of?"
"If we want to win the respect of others, we must first respect ourselves!"
"The people of Ellington have knelt for too long. Now, it is time for us to stand up!"
"Tell everyone to straighten their backs!"
"There is no need to be nervous, no need to feel inferior, no need to be nervous!"
"Believe in ourselves. Under the leadership of the count, we have achieved something that we should be proud of!"
"This is a miracle, and this miracle will continue. Our Ellington will be praised by all races in the entire Prandal along with the count's name and deeds!"
Tina was very nervous as she recorded Fiona's speech. These were all things that she needed to learn. Compared to Fiona, who had received a good education when she was young, she was still far behind, so she needed to work harder.
She looked forward to that figure. One day, she believed that she could also become a very important person by his side.
Tang En, who was standing at the door, heard Fiona's impassioned speech and touched his nose subconsciously. Being praised like this behind his back seemed to be a little … excited.
However, what Tang En was not used to was that Fiona had obviously used brainwashing methods in her speech.
At a specific time and under a specific target, using the method of personal worship could increase the effect of cohesion and action. However, to be honest, Tang En, who came from Earth, was very disgusted by personal worship.
In the end, any personal worship would lead to extreme expansion of selfish desires and private power, which would cause some difficult problems to deal with. For example, some fanatical fans would indiscriminately attack those rational people who didn't worship them. And because the target of their worship was kidnapped by public opinion to be a saint, they couldn't punish those fanatical fans. Over time, strong conflicts would arise.
The most terrible thing was that once one was immersed in that kind of power and could not extricate themselves, after a long time, whether it was those followers or the target of worship, they would be blinded by the power and even do some terrible things.
Tang En was a human, not a god. Therefore, he also had seven emotions and six desires. It was easy for him to be affected by flattery and be blinded. Although he had been trying to maintain his original heart, after a long time, how could he be sure that he would not be affected by his selfish desires and cause him to become a terrifying devil king dictator?
After waiting for those fanatical people to leave, Tang En walked into the study. After greeting Tina who was blushing, he shook his head and said to Fiona, "You incited them too much. Although personal worship is very useful at a specific time, the subsequent impact is actually very bad … If I become a terrifying devil king, then you'll definitely be credited with great merit."
"If you become a devil king," Fiona looked into Tang En's eyes and said seriously, "Then I'll become a witch."
Tang En was stunned.
Although this was not a confession, it was more touching than a * * * confession!
But Fiona …
The devil king and the witch seemed to have nothing to do with each other …
