MTL - Things from Another World-Chapter 25 People-oriented

How attractive the news revealed in Down's words to the dwarf is, look at Brian's reaction before and after.

Although Tang En didn't say anything specifically, a few things he mentioned inadvertently were enough to open the door to Brian's new world.

Bryan, who had originally planned to flash people tomorrow, suddenly changed his mind. He felt that instead of traveling elsewhere, he would rather stay in Ellington.

Maybe Tang En will give him other surprises!

"Stay and help me?"

Tang En was surprised, then waved his hands again and again: "What a shame, no need, no more! You are a dwarf ... uh, uh, dwarf! Ellington has a blacksmith, I can find him if I need anything, like of."

This cunning kid!

Brian scolded in his heart, and got cheap and sold well!

"How could it be the same !?"

Brian pointed to himself and proudly said, "It's not that I boast. My forging skills are among the best among our dwarves! As long as you can say anything, I can make it for you! And the quality is absolutely first-rate! "

In fact, Brian really doesn't boast. A dwarf blacksmith is extremely popular no matter where he is, so he is willing to stay in Ellington. Tang En actually made a big profit.

It's just that this guy hasn't been hooked just now, but Tang En has to throw in some dry goods before he is willing to hook, which makes Tang En a little unhappy, so he deliberately catches his appetite.

For a race keen on forging, nothing is more attractive than a new, more durable material.

So Down is very confident that he can keep Brian.

"Really?" Down looked at Brian very suspiciously.

Brian patted his chest: "Of course it is true!"

"Hope you won't regret it."

Tang En's weird expression seemed to have accepted Brian.

Many of the things he conceived could not be manufactured at all now, because the world lacks the most basic industrial system, everything must be started from scratch, and Brian's forging ability, coupled with his alchemy technology, is the root of all this.

He will define units and standards from scratch, and here he will be the founder of everything.

The next day, Tang En got up and stood with a tangled face in front of the sink.

It's the third day to come to Prandall, and he hasn't brushed his teeth for two days ...

There is no toothbrush, no soap in this world, and washing your face is only a matter of washing your face with water. There is no difference between nobles and civilians, and there are some extravagant things that may soak some petals in the water.

Fortunately, the people of Prandall are not like the European Middle Ages on the planet. They do n’t bathe for a few months or even a lifetime. People here are still very clean, and there is a clear emerald river next to the town. The clear and sweet river water can be taken at any time, so the people here in Ellington do not have any bad smell.

"Trump out the toothbrush, toothpaste and soap in the past two days ... I remember that horsetail can be used as a toothbrush. Toothpaste can be mixed with gypsum, fat and salt. If you use soap, you can still remember to cook animal fat and plant ash ... Well, there is a general impression that you can get it out of trouble. "[E1]

After washing and washing his face, the maid took a bit of salt to gargle, and after finishing a little, Tang En went downstairs.

"Big brother!"

As soon as I came downstairs, I heard the crisp voice of Little Loli. Tang En froze and smiled: "Ilia is here."

Tang En's impression on Elijah is very deep. This little girl is a rare magic affinity body. If she trains carefully, she will definitely become a powerful mage in the future. This kind of talent Tang En will not let go .

"Lord Lord."

Elsa said apologetically, "Iliaf has come to thank you for saving her, didn't bother you to rest?"

"No no."

Tang En waved his hands, squatted down and picked up Elijah, and smiled: "Now the bad guys are gone, won't you be afraid anymore?"

"Ok!"

Elijah was very pleased to put a straw ring on her head: "Brother, I made it up. It smells so good. It's for you."

"Um ... this smell?"

Tang En froze, isn't this mint? Does Ellington also produce mint here?

"Ilia, don't mess around, how can Lord Lord wear that kind of thing!"

Elsa worried that Elijah would make Tang En upset and hurriedly stopped her.

"No, it doesn't matter, I'm happy."

Tang En smiled: "Ilia, where did you find this mint?"

"mint?"

Ilia was confused, and saw Tang En pointing at the ring of grass, and then she was surprised: "The grass is called mint, it's right by the river, a lot."

"Mint grass?"

Elsa was also stunned. She's seen this grass. The smell is unique, but it doesn't seem to have a name? It used to be a bold name for adventurers, but it was later forgotten.

"Take me to see it?"

After seeing peppermint, Tang En's mind came to a lot of thoughts. The effect of peppermint is very big, not only can be used as a spice additive, but also edible and medicinal. Toothpaste and soap he wants to make can also add some mint Essence, more fragrant.

Elijah nodded without hesitation.

Elsa and Ilia had already had breakfast, and when Tang En had breakfast and was about to go out, Fiona appeared in front of him.

"You going out?"

Fiona frowned: "A lot of things are waiting for you in the Lord's Mansion. What are you going to do?"

Tang En righteously said, "Of course, for the future of Ellington, if my own territory is not even clear to me, what other developments are we talking about?"

"That makes sense."

Fiona nodded: "I'll go with you, too, and just go out to see the farmland in Ellington."

So Fiona joined the team.

After telling the maid to let her collect some ponytail hairs, they walked out the door and walked directly out of the town. Tang En kept looking around, shaking his head while sighing.

Although he has not studied urban planning, he also knows that Ellington's layout is really bad, the building has no rules, there is no unified planning, and there are no underground drainage works and public lighting facilities.

Down is planning to completely rebuild the entire Ellington-now the building size of Ellington is not large, the cost of rebuilding is also low, and it is still within the acceptable range.

And he is still the lord, and he said that everyone's orders should be obeyed without fear of objection.

Rebuilding Ellington's words can also invigorate the town and let everyone do things.

All in all, it's a good thing to do multiple things. [e2]

After silently re-planning Ellington in their hearts, their group has reached the edge of the farmland outside.

"Ellington's farmland area is not small, but because of Buck and others, a large part of the farmland has been abandoned and there has been no wasteland cultivation at all. If you mobilize, you can reuse this part of the farmland. It will catch up. "

Tang En thought for a while, and said, "Then mobilize, and say my words. For those who open up new farmland, the harvest tax of the new farmland will be waived and the next year will be reduced by half. I believe they will be happy to go.

Fiona gave Tang En a white look, and the guy raised the banner of tax cuts, but since he had already decided, Fiona could only write it down.

"Master Lord!"

After the farmers in the field saw Tang En, they all stopped working to salute him.

Tang En nodded, his eyes fell on the farm tools next to them, and he frowned: "Fiona, are all the empire farmers using this kind of farm tools?"

The agricultural tools they use to manage the farmland are actually wooden.

"It seems like everything, what's wrong?"

"Why not use iron?"

"Ironware?"

Fiona's eyes widened: "Iron is so important. Of course, it is used to build weapons and armors to defend the country. How can it be used to create agricultural tools?"

Tang En silently looked at the sky. After a moment, he said quietly, "O Fiona, what do you say is the stability of a country?"

"The root of stability?"

Fiona obviously hadn't thought about it, thought about it, and tentatively said, "The combat effectiveness of the army?"

"I think it's a powerful master?"

Elsa offered a different opinion: "If there are legendary masters sitting, the country will be much more stable."

"Yes, it's not right," Tang En shook his head. "You haven't seen through at all. Whether it's the army or the legendary master, they are all people."

"The country is people-oriented and people are food-oriented. The issue of food is not only the most basic need for human survival, but also always the eternal theme of national stability and social development."

"If the people in a country ca n’t even eat enough food, and what they worry about every day is what to do with the next meal, how can this country be strong? Can it be chaotic? On the other hand, if everyone in a country can eat If you are full, do n’t worry about being hungry. Naturally, when you are full, you will think about other things, such as making money, training in combat skills and magic, and increasing combat effectiveness, and your country ’s strength will be stronger.

"So, a strong agricultural foundation is the foundation of a country's stability."

Having said that, Tang En suddenly asked, "Where is Brian?"

"I arranged a house for him in the morning, and he said it would be furnished, at least like a blacksmith's workshop."

"Well."

At the beginning, Tang En didn't expect that one of the important reasons for the low food production here was that the tools were not up to standard. Is this a joke? You must use iron! Go back and talk to Brian.

Wait a while to explore the world and study the magic power. Maybe you can integrate agricultural machinery such as scarifiers, seeders, and combine harvesters? [e3]

Tang Enmo rubbed his chin with a weird smile.

At this time, Tang En stunned: "Why does this place do this?"
