Chapter 249 It’s Time for Ellington to Take Off
Yes, Frank has been wary again and again, suspecting that there is poison in the shit...ah! I suspected that Tang En was deceitful, but I didn't expect that he would be tricked in the end!
The policy is real, the technological innovation in Silver City is real, and the market shrinkage is real, but...
The luxury policy that has the most important impact on prices has been dismissed!
Although the market has shrunk, this alone can stabilize the chaotic magic crystal market price!
However, what Frank did not expect was the information revealed in an interview published by Tang En - it was this information that made Frank smell something unusual.
"Baron Tang En, the Tang Dynasty Chamber of Commerce was not well-known before, so what gave you the confidence to believe that you would succeed and decisively enter the Yalinks market?"
"This naturally stems from my confidence in our Datang Magic Energy Engineering Research Institute. Our Datang Chamber of Commerce has a professional research institution that is responsible for developing the latest and most convenient equipment. Our service tenet is customer first. We My credo is that magic can change lives!”
"Oh? We understand that customers come first, but what does the 'magic power' of magic that can change lives mean?"
"Magic energy, of course, refers to magical energy. In our current life, whether it is farming, transportation, mining, etc., we use human power. However, after painstaking research and painstaking research, our Magic Energy Engineering Research Institute finally developed A method of efficient utilization of magic energy has been discovered.”
"Oh? This sounds like good news. Can Baron Down explain it to us?"
"It's actually very simple. As we all know, the world we live in, Purandar, is rich in mineral deposits. The magic crystal mine is one of the treasures of our world. However, due to the requirements for the use of magic crystals, the use of magic crystals has always been Restricted to the circle of magicians."
"However, I am now honored to announce to everyone that our Datang Chamber of Commerce has solved the biggest difficulty in civilian use of magic crystal!"
"We have successfully used new ideas to produce magic air conditioners, magic water heaters, magic refrigerators and other magic furniture products. These are all driven by magic crystals. All friends who have used them should know that our products have How durable and stable.”
"Now, I want to announce a new news. In addition to the Magic Furniture Factory, we at Ellington have also established a Magic Machinery Factory. The latest product we have recently launched is the Magic Energy that can greatly increase harvesting efficiency. Combine!”
"Yes, perhaps some well-informed people have heard that our Datang Chamber of Commerce's combined harvest fleet is currently traveling across the country, providing farmland harvesting services."
"That huge mechanical structure is the magic combine harvester we produced - and it is also driven by magic crystal!"
"Now it takes a farmer more than ten days to harvest one hectare of farmland, but with a combine harvester, a farmer can easily harvest more than ten hectares of farmland in one day! This is an epoch-making improvement in harvesting efficiency. !”
"The improvement in harvesting efficiency means that for the same number of farmers, the land that can be cultivated will be greatly increased, the grain output will be greatly increased, the national population will be steadily growing, and the overall strength will be steadily improved... The significance is really too great. I don’t need to say more.”
"But this is only an improvement in harvesting efficiency. Farming still requires manual farming, which still limits our agricultural efficiency."
"It's my fault for this. I didn't finish what I just said. In fact, our Tang Dynasty Magic Machinery Factory has started to produce a full set of agricultural magic machinery. Not only combine harvesters, but also magic cultivators and magic sprinklers. Machines and so on - with the help of our magic machines, production efficiency will be improved dozens of times!"
"Is it really so amazing?"
"Of course! I can guarantee that our customers will never be able to do without them after using them once! If you are interested, if you have the intention to buy, please go to the dealers of Datang Chamber of Commerce in various places to place an order immediately. Now our orders have been scheduled for three months. If we are any slower, we will not be able to catch up with next year's spring harvest. If we fall behind others, we will fall behind step by step. Do you want to become rich? Now is the best opportunity!"
There was silence in the study, and only the rapid and dull breathing of Frank and Charles could be heard.
"finish watching?"
"finish watching."
"what idea?"
Charles clenched his fists: "Twain, you must die!"
"I didn't expect it... I really didn't expect it..."
Frank rubbed his brows. Although he knew that Victor and Tang En would have some back-up plan, he never expected that it would be such a decisive blow!
Magical machinery? Although I don't know what it is, from the information revealed by Tang En, it is of great significance.
A mechanical product that can be mass-produced, can replace manpower, far exceeds labor efficiency, and is driven by magic crystals. The overall cost is cheaper than using slaves, and it will never resist, betray, or escape...
Even for him, facing such superior conditions, even Frank's heart was moved, let alone other nobles.
The nobles, who mainly made their living by selling slaves, panicked because Tang En's combine harvester would greatly reduce the value of slaves.
The nobles who had to buy a large number of slaves to maintain their farms were happy. Cost savings meant an increase in profits. Of course, they were happy to use new technologies.
"damn it……"
Charles cursed: "No wonder they wanted to get the magic crystal mine at all costs. I didn't expect that Tang En would actually come up with such a thing!"
"Yeah...who would have thought?"
Frank murmured to himself, thinking of Victor's support for Tang En. Could it be that he supported him because he already knew that Tang En had this ability?
Frank felt the urge to vomit blood when he thought that Tang En and Victor had joined forces and forced him to sell the mine.
No one is a fool, the only difference lies in the length of vision.
Tang En had the upper hand, so he knew what he was doing, but Frank didn't know. He could only guess and infer, but the final result was that he failed and Tang En won.
What he promoted was a new era composed of magic crystals...
Frank didn't need to think too much to guess how important the magic crystal would be in the coming era. If he had promoted the emergence and development of magic machinery, he would probably monopolize all the magic crystals by any means necessary.
"Tang En..."
Frank clenched his fists. Now, Tang En had changed from a little-known little baron to an enemy who was no less important in his heart than Victor, Aubrey and Adrian.
"Father."
"I know...he will be a huge stumbling block for us."
Frank said quietly: "Twain, you must die."
Just when the Kadir family was in a frenzy and vomiting blood because of Tang En's piece of news, the outside market reaction was just as Tang En expected, and the price of magic crystals had picked up.
Although many people have not seen the magic machine yet, so they still have doubts about the credibility of the news, but businessmen are businessmen after all. They have experienced the price collapse before, and they will not let go of any good news now. So they almost spontaneously started to organize a bailout.
The price of magic crystals has been rising steadily. Although it has not returned to the previous normal price, it has at least given hope to many businessmen who were on the verge of ruining their families and allowed them to persevere.
This made Tang En dumbfounded.
Because many of those businessmen are members of the Illus Business Alliance.
They are blocking themselves, what is the result?
In the end, it was the news he released that saved them...
"Lord, according to your opinion, we are currently producing in three shifts. The production capacity of the combine harvester production line has reached saturation. However, we still have many orders. We cannot produce them before next spring harvest... These three Within months, it will be difficult to meet the needs of the Qadir family."
"Then increase the production line."
Tang En waved his hand: "Now that the news has been released and the mine has been obtained, it is time for our development to take off."
"what do you mean……"
"Not only combine harvesters, but other magic machines have also begun to be sold."
Twain said: "I want Ellington's name to spread to everyone's ears!"
Fiona smiled bitterly and said: "It's a great ambition, but... we don't have that many available manpower."
Ellington's population has exceeded 10,000, but this is far from enough, because most of the manpower is busy outside in construction and it is impossible to join the factory's production.
And what about the factory's production line? The production efficiency cannot be compared with that on Earth - because it is impossible for Tang En to create intelligent machinery.
It would be nice if I had a computer...
Without a computer, without a program, and in a place with no information base at all, how could he create the intelligent robotic arm on Earth to improve the efficiency of repetitive processing?
"Depend on!"
Tang En suddenly cursed himself: "Why are you getting into trouble again?"
Then Tang En excitedly said to Fiona: "There is no problem with manpower, I can solve this."
Fiona was startled: "How to solve it?"
Tang En grinned: "There are two ways. Do you think it would be more unique for our territory to have more elemental creatures, or more alchemy puppets to have more style?"
Elemental creatures?
Alchemy puppet?
Fiona was stunned for a moment, and suddenly her eyes widened with shock: "You mean, use them to replace workers!?"
Tang En snapped his fingers and smiled brightly: "Congratulations, you got the answer right."
