Chapter 330: Living in Darkness, Looking Towards the Light (Monthly Ticket)

Grandia can't solve it by herself, but there are more elven druids in Emerald Corolla!

So the way Tang En thought of was to come to Emerald Corolla, find Isali, and convince her to ask the Druid priests in the temple for help. In a short period of time, only by asking for their help can this task be completed. Got it

"Is this what you came here for?"

Isalie looked at the embarrassed Tang En with a smile. She had amazing breasts and just sat there casually, making Tang En feel a suffocating pressure. There was nothing I could do about it. He almost died in the breast murder case last time. , it really left him fresh in his memory.

"Yes, with Grandia alone, even if she is exhausted to death, we cannot gather 71,000 tons of food in a short period of time."

Tang En held up the tea cup to block his sight. If he continued to look at it, he was afraid that he would not be able to continue to think calmly about the problem.

Isally tilted her head and looked at Tang En with interest: "Why don't you go to other cities of your species, or even other countries, to buy it?"

"In fact, we have considered the possibility of purchasing from other cities. The final conclusion is that it will take at least half a year to purchase 71,000 tons of grain, and it will also have to be imported."

Tang En's expression was a little helpless. Now it was only possible to gather such a huge amount of food in a short period of time by relying on the magical power of the Elf Druids in the Temple of the Earth Goddess.

Only after a thorough investigation will we understand how backward agriculture in Purandar is now. It is clear that applying the power of magic to agriculture only requires a small amount of power to greatly improve agricultural productivity, and the speed of population and even social development will be greatly reduced. Great increase, but it is a pity that they put the magic on the shelf.

The result of backward agricultural productivity is that there is a serious shortage of food reserves.

Even the Illrus royal family did not have much food reserves, and Victor was helpless with Tang En's difficulties.

Borrowing money is no problem, but borrowing food is no problem.

Tang En and the others calculated it. On average, the grain reserves of the towns he investigated were only about three months old. Taken together, after being governed by him, Ellington still held the most grain per capita. To him this was simply a ridiculous joke.

But Fiona and the others felt that this was a matter of course—Twain increased production, cut taxes, and sent a large number of bonuses, and then continued to purchase grain from outside to replenish the inventory. This resulted in such a result. It is abnormal if the quantity is not high.

"So in the end - ah, sister Egwen, you are here, please sit down."

After hearing what Isally said, Tang En, who was originally slouched, suddenly sat upright, looking full of energy, and even had an elegant smile on his face.

"I lied to you, Aegwen went to patrol the forest today and hasn't come back yet."

Isally smiled mischievously.

So the smile on Tang En's face froze.

Elf Queen, when did you learn to lie?

"Speaking of which, judging from your performance, you seem to really care about Aegwynn."

Isalie gently stroked the staff and looked at Tang En thoughtfully: "You obviously only met her once before, how could you like her so much? This is hard for me to understand."

“Is love at first sight difficult to understand?”

Isally shook her head: "Of course, that kind of thing only exists in the stories of bards. How could it exist in reality? The so-called love at first sight can only be instantly conquered by the other person's appearance, but I remember there are a few people around you. This girl should be considered very beautiful among humans, so she shouldn’t be easily conquered by Sister Aigwen’s appearance.”

Tang En was silent for a moment, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and said, "Perhaps this is a yearning for beautiful things. People in darkness often yearn for the light the most."

"What's the meaning?"

"It means that what you lack, the more you yearn for."

Tang En's eyes were full of self-deprecation: "Maybe it's because my heart is too dirty that I was attracted to Aegwen's simple beauty - can you imagine living in a world full of betrayals and deceptions? When a man in this world suddenly sees a woman who is as pure as crystal and has an impeccable appearance, how much will his heart be touched?"

Isalie thought for a moment and shook her head. She couldn't imagine that situation.

"I can tell you."

Tang En covered his chest with a warm smile on his face: "It was like a cold ice cave in the depths suddenly melted, or like being struck by lightning. A trembling sense of happiness—"

Looking at the confused Isally, Tang En continued: "—get her! From the moment I saw her, my heart kept telling me that I must get her, it's her! If I just If you can marry someone, that person must be her!"

"Sister Aegwen is an elf."

"I know……"

Tang En could not explain to this upright elf queen what slips of the tongue and idioms were.

"Besides, I remember that among humans, there is no rule of monogamy."

Isally shook her ears subconsciously and looked at Tang En strangely: "So this is why you didn't want to be my husband last time?"

Tang En opened his mouth, but after thinking about it, he found that he was speechless.

"This issue is very complicated. You can think that I am concerned about Egwin's feelings."

Tang En sighed. After all, Aigwen is an elf who is loyal to monogamy. While saying that he loves her, he wants to open a harem. Then he has become a **** and wants to build a memorial arch. Even he feels uncomfortable. It's a bit shameless.

What kind of love is this kind of love from him?

Rather than talking about love, it is better to say that a man with a dirty heart is innately possessive of perfect things.

If you just admit that you are a dirty, dirty man, why do you have to pretend to be pure and kind?

"You are such a good person. The goddess has her reasons for choosing you as her envoy."

Tang En smiled bitterly and shook his head. Sometimes after acting for a long time, he got so involved in the drama that he probably even forgot what it was like.

Angel? I guess the goddess who wants to kill me the most right now is Nisclaire, right?

After all, I gave her consciousness as soon as they met...

"Okay, let's stop talking about this. I'll talk to you later when I have time. I don't have time now."

Tang En saw that Isalie seemed to have a desire to gossip, so he quickly brought the topic back: "The most important thing now is food! It is to solve the food problem!"

"In other words, you are here to ask me for help?"

Isally's green-white fingers gently slid across Tang En's cheek, then brushed past his ear, revealing a charming smile: "In this case, don't you think if you make me angry, the consequences will be very bad?"

Tang En's whole body trembled, and an electric current rushed from his tailbone to his mind. Damn it, why is this Isally so good at teasing people?

Is she still the Elf Queen?

"I didn't mean to make you angry...but you should give me an answer."

Tang En swallowed hard. She said that she had asked the other elders to leave from the very beginning of their meeting. Could it be that she was... trying to make unspoken rules for herself again?

"Grain... seventy-one thousand tons - is that what the new unit you formulated said?"

After seeing Tang En nod, Isalie continued: "This is a lot of food. Even Jade Corolla can't get so much food together, especially since most of our food is fresh fruits and vegetables. Even if you gather them all, you won't be able to save them."

Tang En thought for a moment and said, "Leave the preservation issue to me. Whether it's grain, fruits, etc., just give me 71,000 tons!"

"Do you have a way to preserve fruits and vegetables without spoiling?"

Isally was very surprised: "Besides using the power of magic and magic, there seems to be no good way, right? And the consumption of these methods is far greater than the profit of preserving fruits and vegetables, so no one is willing to use them."

"Not the power of divine magic and magic."

Tang En smiled: "Don't underestimate the wisdom of mortals... Without extraordinary power, mortals still have various ways to solve problems."

The reason why Purandar's lower-level civilization is so backward is that the top-level civilization has mastered the power to solve problems and has given the people at the bottom a hope and direction. They no longer think about ways to solve problems with their own strength. Instead, they will They all chose to practice combat skills and magic.

However, they have forgotten that although there are many people in this world who have mastered powerful power, there are still a larger number of people, who are probably ordinary people who will never be able to awaken their talents and have no power.

When facing the invasion of the Chaos army, these ordinary people are a burden.

The gods summoned Tang En into this world so that Tang En could increase the power of these ordinary people as much as possible. Even ordinary people who would die in one attack may have an impact on the entire battle situation if they are raised to death in two attacks. Immeasurable change.

And how to improve the combat effectiveness of ordinary people... Haha, the humans in Purandar actually know it all, and that is to use various equipment.

It's just that in this regard, the people on earth know better and are more ruthless.

Just like now, when it comes to preservation, fruits and vegetables, Isally will directly think of using the power of magic and magic, and let ordinary people in Purandal answer, and they will only think of this answer.

But what about Tang En?

There are too many ways.

Whether it is extracting nitrogen for vacuum nitrogen sealing and preservation, making candied dried fruit, or making juice, or even processing it into cans, etc...

These can extend the service life of fruits and vegetables as much as possible.

Especially after it is canned, it is not a problem to seal and store it for three to five years.
