Things from Another World

Fiona's question has been raised by many people on the earth before.

We already have a carriage, why would we want a car?

We already have a car, why would we want a train?

We already have a train, why do we need a plane?

We already have ...

However, from her perspective, it is also normal to ask this question. In the case of only dirt roads in the country, the performance of hardened roads such as rock roads is already very superior. What about the road.

However, Tang En didn't think so.

It took him a lot of effort to make Fiona understand the important role of road bearing capacity, water permeability, durability, corrosion resistance and friction. Although these data are not visible for the time being, Tang En is not of that kind. Kung Fu has been staring, so he can never go in two steps if he can do it in one step!

By the time Fiona understood the meaning of these indicators, Tang En had already climbed onto the paver and loaded a bucket of asphalt into the bucket.

Fiona hurriedly followed.

The asphalt was isolated and heated by the fire magic array, and it soon melted. After adding the waste **** from the steel plant and mixing it evenly, the paver began to lay the asphalt pavement forward.

"What a pungent smell!"

Fiona pinched her nose. Although her image was very unsightly, she couldn't care less.

"Oh."

Tang En nodded, and a gentle whirlwind immediately wrapped around Fiona, and she was relieved immediately.

"Lord Lord, I just discovered a problem. If these children accidentally run in while these machines are on the road, it is very dangerous ..."

"So that's another thing to do next."

Tang En casually said: "Before the construction starts, the construction section must be announced in advance in the newspaper, and traffic safety rules must be trained to warn children not to run wild."

"Traffic safety rules?"

"Well, that's more involved. Let me tell you, what do you think I did for this asphalt road?"

"Of course it is improving transportation efficiency."

"... Without this, what do you have to say to point to the ultimate answer ..."

"Well, then please answer my dear Lord Lord."

"my honor."

Tang En smiled slightly: "The flat asphalt road is naturally not only used for horse-drawn carriages. That is too wasteful. In addition to horse-drawn carriages, magic energy vehicles and magic energy vehicles can better display the superior performance of this road."

"Magic car? ... Ah! I see!"

Fiona's eyes lit up: "I've heard from Croto and Bryan before, they said that you had proposed this concept, but they didn't know what it meant. Do they have to match this? Is it okay? "

"On the one hand."

Tang En smiled, stopped the paver, and got out of the car. Tang En said while looking at the paved asphalt pavement, "In addition to this flat, friction-resistant asphalt road, there is still a lack of comparison The important material, then the problem of that material is to be solved. "

"Oh……"

Fiona seemed to understand, she glanced at the road, and reached out curiously, "Is that all right?"

Tang En was startled and grabbed her hand: "Are you stupid? You dare touch it with the heat, don't want your hand?"

Fiona's face was reddish. "I forgot."

"It's almost there. Now it is compacted with a roller and then cooled naturally."

Finally, I tried the roller again. After confirming that the roller can also work normally, the overall road repair plan has basically been formed.

Fiona calculated the cost and almost got crazy: "I was too conservative before! The cost of one square meter is not even a gold coin, and at least 50 silver coins will be added!"

"what?"

"These machines are more expensive than combine harvesters, and they all need to use standard magic crystals! The larger the amount of work, the faster it will be consumed. The road repair costs I calculated before did not include these costs!"

Fiona wailed: "In addition to these costs, only the main roads in the old and new urban areas need nearly 200,000 gold coins!"

"Well ... it's actually less."

"how is this possible!"

"Relax, it will be less."

Tang En said with a smile: "With the increase in the amount of mining, the mining process will continue to improve and the efficiency will continue to increase. The cost of the asphalt lake is continuing to decline. Before long, we will export to the Dwarf Kingdom. With the improvement of their mining efficiency, when the ore hoards too much, they will definitely need to increase their exports. As their only partner, the gnome kingdom and us Ellington are the only ones they export ore select."

"In this way, we can get cheap ore, but the magic rig produced is a high-priced export, which can not only be exchanged for the money for mining asphalt ore, but also metal ore."

"That is to say, we just maintain the leading technology, invest a little productivity, and consume nothing, and we have gained economic and industrial development in the territory."

Fiona was stunned after listening: "Master Lord."

"Ok?"

"Is this what you planned from the beginning? You have already determined from the beginning that you can associate with dwarves, and dwarves will accept you, and you already knew that dwarves would look at the magic rig, so Come up with this technology in front of Brian, because you already know that they are willing to use ore in exchange, everything is planned by you, isn't it? "

"..."

There was a smile in Tang En's eyes, and he smiled, "How is that possible, I am not a prophet."

Fiona breathed a sigh of relief: "... also, if everything was planned by you, it would be terrible. Even the dwarves are unknowingly pitted by you, then we ... ah, nothing."

"Well, that's it. Just put these three machines here, and then let the guards come on duty to be on guard. I will start using them as prototype training tomorrow. When I go back, I will make the design drawings and give the body to Brian. , And then related parts processing is let Nokia arrange. "

With that said, Tang En frowned, "If we start to produce these machines, our factory must expand."

"Did you find out?"

Fiona said with a finger, "Now in the mechanical processing factory, air conditioners, refrigerators, water heaters, washing machines, and hair dryers are produced. A while ago, I concentrated on the production of combine harvesters. Now I haven't slowed down. Still struggling to put into production the magic rig, if you do this again ... it is estimated that the workers in the factory will collapse. "

"Uh ... well, this month they will pay ten gold coins each."

"Ten gold coins !?"

Fiona immediately blew her hair: "You are crazy! Do you know that you have tens of thousands of gold coins in your mouth and went out!"

Tang En opened his mouth wide. "No, right? We have hired so many people?"

"What do you think!?"

Fiona was about to collapse: "Now the Aborigines of Ellington are working for you, my lord! Almost all the adults of Ellington have become employees of the Datang Chamber of Commerce! Adult children are also doing things for us. Whether they sell newspapers or grow herbs, in the final analysis, they belong to your employees. "

"Oh no?"

Tang En suddenly said: "Do we need so many people?"

"How much is that?"

Fiona hated iron and steel: "At that time, the caravans sent by the Golden Rose family to various places added up to tens of thousands. How much are you? Even the towns within the Illus Empire did not clear up, and the large chambers of commerce also No, that ’s too much? ”

"Ok……"

"And I heard that you are planning to put into production standard armors recently? Do you think we can keep up with our current productivity?"

"..."

Tang En sighed, pondered for a moment, and said, "I was negligent before. In this case, in order to avoid confusion in the future, now Ellington's business needs to be rectified and reorganized in advance, you remember."

Fiona immediately took out her pen and paper: "Please."

"From now on, Ellington Machinery Processing Factory is split and reorganized into Datang Magic Energy Factory, Datang Magic Energy Factory, Datang Army Factory, and Datang Military Magic Energy Factory-"

"Wait! Lord Lord! What is the Heavy Magic Energy Machinery Factory? And the Datang Army Factory !?"

"Listen to me."

Tang En patted her head: "In the future, Datang Maneng Furniture Factory will mainly produce civilian energy furniture for daily use, magic energy air conditioners, magic energy refrigerators, magic energy kettles, magic energy water heaters, magic energy washing machines, and magic energy hair dryers. It belongs to Maneng Furniture. In the future, all the Maneng furniture developed will be handed over to Maneng Furniture Factory. The employees here have a general level of confidentiality. "

"The Datang Maneng Machinery Factory will mainly produce agricultural and household light machinery, combine harvesters, maneng rigs, road levelers, pavers, rollers, and maneng cars and maneng automatic cars that will be developed in the future. In this category, the employees here have higher technical requirements and higher levels of confidentiality. "

"In the future, the main production target of the Datang Military Factory will be armaments. Standard swords, standard armor, bows, arrows, and crossbows, and all upgraded equipment will be produced here. Of course, the level of security will be higher."

"Don't register with Datang Military Magic Energy Machinery Factory first, it belongs to the secret level for the time being, of course, the level of confidentiality here is the highest."

After a pause, Tang En continued: "In addition, the current Ellington processing plant will also be reorganized into Datang Department Store, with food processing plants, daily necessities processing plants, pottery processing plants and paper mills."

"Food processing plants are responsible for the processing and production of mints and subsequent food products, daily necessities processing plants are responsible for the processing of daily necessities such as soap and pure dew, ceramics processing plants are responsible for the processing of bathrooms, kitchenware and ceramic molds, and paper mills only need to be responsible for production All kinds of paper will do. "

"After the reorganization of the processing plant, the professional system of employees is implemented. The employees in the current position are only responsible for the current position and will no longer be temporarily transferred. At the same time, the recruitment scale will continue to expand. During the internship period, live and pay, no salary, hired when qualified. "
