In the next few days, everyone in Ellington began a lively "Talk about civilization, establish a new style, and correct the three views" activity.
Everyone was educated by a simple conversation, telling them how important the next month was to Ellington, how the residents' performance would affect the future development, and how important their personal performance would be...
The result of the conversation was that every resident of Ellington was flattered — they really had a feeling that they were the masters of Ellington. If they did not perform well, not only would they lose face for Ellington, but they would also lose face for themselves.
Everyone seemed to be moved by this common sense of honor. After the heavy responsibility fell on their shoulders, they all understood a truth: the honor of the territory was not only the Lord's, but also everyone's. They needed to be protected by everyone.
Then, an extremely strong civilization storm swept through Ellington.
No one spat on the streets anymore. Everyone consciously threw their garbage into the trash can. Adults also taught children not to urinate and defecate everywhere. The tidiness of the streets coupled with the Elven-style greening measures made the whole of Ellington look brand new, turning it into a green fantasy city.
Of course, more importantly, a large number of residents worked hard to change themselves, creating a very good atmosphere. When outsiders entered this kind of atmosphere, they would be warned and reprimanded for some uncivilized behavior. Then, they would be unconsciously influenced, and over time, they would become civilized people.
This was a good habit that was contagious.
Tang En was happy to see this situation. It was very difficult to cultivate a good atmosphere. Not only did it require everyone to participate, but it also required long-term unremitting efforts.
Therefore, this kind of thing started when the population base was small, the effect would be more obvious and easier to do. Once the population base was large, the relationship between people would become complicated, and it would be very difficult to change the overall atmosphere.
Now, Tang En was using his experience and lessons on Earth to forcibly shape an ideal civilized country. Everything was moving forward according to the expected perfect trajectory, reasonably avoiding possible problems in the development. In this case, the development of the territory would be very smooth.
The construction of the apartment area was also very smooth. As long as the people who received the training arrived, they could arrange to live in — of course, there would be a fee.
As Fiona's deputy, Tina followed the construction process of the apartment area. The young girl gained a lot of experience and learned a lot of things in the process. She knew that she did not have the power. The reason why Tang En promoted her might just be to find someone to share the pressure with Fiona. However, for Tina, this was enough. This was an opportunity that many people would not have in their lifetime. She cherished it very much.
But as a great man said, the more you know, the more you will discover your ignorance. Now that the girl had a rare opportunity, she was like a sponge, absorbing all the knowledge hungrily.
Even Fiona was moved by her enthusiasm. She valued this little sister more and more and trained her as a real deputy. Recently, she had gradually given Tina more tasks, and her importance had slowly increased.
And Tina did not disappoint her.
"Tina's performance has been very good recently. I think she can really be my deputy."
After sending Tina to check the accounts of the Hailzorm mine, Tang En and Fiona sat in the study and drank hot tea, watching Nola lying on the table and eating tea and snacks. The leisurely time made her wings completely relaxed and drooped.
"Are you sure? Isn't it a little too rushed? "
Tang En was still a little surprised. How long has it been? If it was in the company on Earth, Tina might not even be through the internship period, and she could already take up the post?
"No, I have to admit that you have found a good seedling this time. Although there are still some basic knowledge that has not been mastered, she is not as clumsy as she looks. She is a very smart girl. "
Fiona put down the teacup, gently poked Nola's cheek, and said with a smile, "She is learning very actively. I think that with her enthusiasm, after putting her in a real position, she should learn faster under pressure."
Tang En also reached out to poke Nola's cheek, and then turned Nola over on the table. Ignoring her struggle, he massaged her belly with his fingers, and then he said, "It is not easy to cultivate a talent. Don't crush her. She is not like you. You have a good foundation, and now you have awakened your talent. She is just an ordinary person."
Fiona rolled her eyes, "Since you know that, why don't you help her awaken her talent?"
Tang En smiled slightly. Suddenly, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he subconsciously withdrew his hand. Nola hugged his finger and bit it fiercely. Tang En raised his eyebrows, bent his finger and flicked Nola's forehead, and said casually, "Fiona, I am afraid that you have to understand one thing. Sometimes, giving too much benefits and attention is not necessarily a good thing for others."
Fiona had just picked up the teacup, and was stunned for a moment. She put the teacup down again, and said thoughtfully, "You mean … the alienation of friends?"
"As expected of Fiona, you are so smart."
Tang En praised her. While playing with Nola's fingers, he explained, "Perhaps you have not noticed that because of our promotion and cultivation, she has become estranged from her friends."
"The first time I promoted her to the head of maids, her friends only envied her, and even gave her beautiful blessings. Because everyone was equal before, and they still retained the pure kindness between each other."
"Then I let her be in charge of my living room. Her friends were still envious, but they did not give her any blessings." After a pause, Tang En subconsciously whispered, "Then, I casually let her become your adjutant, and Marlene took over her position as the head of maids. But this time, they did not even envy her. Her friends have begun to feel jealous."
Fiona interrupted, "We used to be the same maid. Why can she be the adjutant, and I can only wash clothes in the backyard? She must have climbed into the Feudal Lord's bed. Is it because of this kind of unbalanced mentality? "
"That's right."
Tang En shook his head, "But you can't blame them. Everyone has this kind of mentality. The difference is that some people can control it, and some can't. Most importantly, if we continue to give her preferential treatment, it will further widen the gap between her and her friends. Although her friends already feel that they are not in the same circle as her, for Tina, she still values those friends very much."
"After all, she is a very kind child …"
"Can you say that the other maids are not kind?"
Tang En asked rhetorically. Fiona was speechless.
"I can only say that Tina is luckier. I saw her silly persistence and touched me, so I gave her hope. But who can say that the other maids are not persistent and hardworking enough?"
Tang En spread his hands and said very innocently, "No one. So we can't judge a person casually before we thoroughly understand them."
"Well, then what do you want to say?"
"Help Tina awaken her talent."
Tang En said, "This kind of thing is certainly not difficult for me, but here is the problem. If we continue to give Tina special treatment, it will widen the gap between her and her friends. When she wants to find her friends to chat and play one day, how will she feel when she finds that she has been abandoned by her friends?"
Fiona imagined that she was Tina, and then she would be mocked and completely alienated by her former friends. Then she nodded silently.
"Then, why don't we help her and her friends all awaken their talents?"
"Fiona, for a territory, do you think that the Feudal Lord's maids are more important, or those warriors who may have to risk their lives to protect their home?"
"This …"
If it was someone else, Fiona would hesitate for a moment. But since it was Tang En, there was no need to hesitate, "Of course it's the warriors."
"That's right."
Tang En nodded, "Then, do you think it's appropriate to give the treatment that the warriors have gone through hard training, blood, and sweat to get to the maids so easily?"
Fiona was silent again and shook her head.
She also knew that it was not appropriate.
This was not a question of whether it was difficult or not, but a complicated question of the human heart.
"Doing so will certainly please those maids, but it will make those warriors bitterly disappointed. The reward that they have to sweat and train to get, can some maids get it just by showing off? Who will feel balanced in their heart? This imbalance will not cause any problems in the short term, but in the long run, it will become a hidden danger. "
Tang En poked Nola and shook his head, "Maybe in the end, I will be scolded as a muddle-headed and lecherous Feudal Lord and be overthrown because of this."
Fiona was silent. This possibility was not impossible.
Nola was a little angry after being poked by Tang En. She could not help but scold, "You are a lecherous pervert to begin with! Why are you still quibbling! Stop it! "
"Huh? When I saw you jumping around, I thought you were having a good time. "
"Damn you, Tang En! Just you wait! I will definitely teach you a lesson! "
Nola was furious and decided to stuff a few terrible worms into Tang En's mouth when he was sleeping at night to teach this stinky guy a good lesson!
At this time, the pale-faced Elsa rushed into the study and shouted in panic, "My Lord! Something big has happened! "
Seeing that Elsa was so flustered, Tang En and Fiona suddenly got up, "What's the matter? An accident happened during the guard's training? Or your parents? — Could it be Elijah!? "
Elsa shook her head repeatedly. After Tang En's mouth was covered by Fiona, she said with difficulty, "Just now, a few miners appeared from the transmission array, and they sent news … The Haier Zorm mine suddenly collapsed!"
