Chapter 196 The Sluggish Idiot
Due to the different basic principles, the machines created by Donn in Plandal are very simple. As long as he is healthy, his limbs and his brain are normal, he can easily start work after simple training. This is a huge leap forward for the increase in production capacity and the decrease in costs.
Unfortunately, even such simple conditions are not available, because driven by Donn's promise to increase his income, all the residents of Ellington have been mobilized, and everyone is doing what they can and there are no idle people at all.
And for granted, the income they received in the first month proved that Tang En said it was true, so they were more motivated to take the initiative to seek job opportunities this month.
“So, population is still a big problem.”
Fiona curled her lips: "It has always been, never changed."
"Well, I get it. I've already advertised for Ellington in Yarinks. As for whether someone will come over, I'm not sure yet."
Tang En sighed: "But now the second production line must be launched, otherwise the production capacity will not keep up with the demand there. Even if it is marketing, you must be prepared to replenish the goods when the market explodes."
Speaking of this, Tang En patted Fiona on the shoulder again and said earnestly: "I know this task is difficult, but no matter how difficult it is, you have to find a way to get the employees of the second production line."
Fiona lightly bit her lower lip, looking embarrassed.
Although Tang En's trust made him very happy, it really gave her a big problem.
Fiona gritted her teeth and said, "If this is the case, if you want to increase the number of employees, you can only break the rules you set before."
Tang En looked puzzled: "What rules?"
"You have said before that people under the age of eighteen and over fifty are not recruited."
"Wait, what I'm talking about is serving in the mines."
Tang En was extremely surprised: "Working here doesn't require physical strength. Working here is so easy. Teenagers and middle-aged people in their fifties can do it."
He is not pedantic. Although child labor is not allowed on earth, it is different in Plandal. Compulsory education is not popular here. Children from ordinary families are basically free-range before they become adults. They can do whatever they want, and most of them will help their families do something.
Although there were public schools after Ellington re-planning, before that, both parties were happy to let the children do something within their ability to make some money. Why not do it?
Fiona was embarrassed: "I thought you were asking all industries to comply with it."
"Okay, I didn't make it clear. If the standards are relaxed, will anyone be able to use it?"
"That's right."
"Okay, I'll prepare the second production line right away, and you're going to recruit people for training."
After saying that, Tang En took action with Fiona.
With previous experience, Tang En "pinched" the second air conditioning production line and sent it to the air conditioning workshop after only one afternoon.
"Brother, when will you come back?"
At this moment, I suddenly met Brian. The guy ran over hurriedly: "You are back just the right time. We are thinking about the combine harvester you mentioned. We have studied the drawings you drew for us, but we still don't understand it."
Tang En looked at Brian with contempt: "If you don't understand, just use your brain. If you ask me what you want for you, what is the use of me?"
"Bad bastard, you know we dwarves are not good at this kind of mechanical thing."
"Then discuss with Cloto to find a few dwarf friends to help."
"Yes, there is a hard shell named Nokia who has brought a few dwarfs, but they are busy laying the water pipes."
That guy on the subway at that time
"Don't waste the talent of the Groka Rune Dwarf"
"I have recently arranged for Groca to learn the principles of the magic array design of the lathe. Although the rune dwarf has magical talent, he has not learned much systematically before, so he needs to re-study the Lord Lord. If you have time, it is best to teach Groca yourself."
"Then wait and say it, I'll give you a task now."
"ah"
"This is the second air conditioning production line. You are ready to take over the training of newcomers, and be sure to get them started as soon as possible. Start production."
"Article 2"
Brian exclaimed: "The sales in Yarinks are so good."
"Of course." Tang En laughed, "If nothing unexpected happens, the salary and bonus this year will be enough for you dwarf brothers to have a good time."
“That’s amazing”
Brian, who was reluctant to drink, immediately smiled as soon as he heard that he could drink it, and said, "Get me some barley wine back then. I will greed for that bastard Durant to death."
"Don't worry, it's enough, and now it's called the Tang Hero Wine."
After thinking for a while, Tang En said, "After training the newcomers, you will take some time to gather those dwarf technicians in the past two days. I will tell you about the general idea of the combine harvester."
Now it is the month of harvest. The busy farming period is coming soon. At that time, there will probably be fewer people using it because of the busy farming. In order to keep Ellington's rapid development, combine harvesters, a big killer that liberates labor, must be done as soon as possible in the next few days.
"I understand, brother, if you explain it yourself, it must be much better than if we explore it ourselves."
Brian breathed a sigh of relief. He had been thinking about the combine harvester these days, but the few of them got together and drank a lot, but only developed a superficial one.
Sure enough, it's better for the big brother to explain this kind of thing personally
After arranging these things, not long after Tang En returned to the Lord's Mansion, he saw Fiona with a smile on his face back.
“It looks like it’s in a good situation”
"Um"
Fiona nodded heavily: "I didn't expect that they are so motivated to work now. I went to Carl and asked him to publish a recruitment notice for me. But he directly handed me a list, all of whom went to Datang Daily to seek jobs. They were suppressed because of age restrictions."
"That's good. Leave these people directly to Brian, he will handle them."
Tang En glanced at the time and said, "I'll go back if there's nothing else."
“So fast”
Fiona was stunned for a moment: "Don't you stay for dinner?"
It has been more than 20 days since I had eaten together, and Fiona really doesn't want to admit that she actually missed this dull fool.
"No, the Grand Duke of Bolet, Elsa's grandfather, invites us to visit at night. It's almost time for Yarinks to go back."
The time difference between Ellington and Yarinks is one hour, of course this is what Donn himself estimates. The natives of Plandal do not have such careful time calculation methods.
In addition to estimating the gap in a time zone, Tang En also calculated some interesting data.
They took a carriage from Ellington to Yalinx. The average speed of the carriage is about 20 kilometers per hour, and they can run about 200 kilometers a day. In addition to resting at night, they run about ten hours a day. They ran for a total of fifteen days, and then deducted the middle and spent five days of detours. In other words, the straight-line distance between Ellington and Yalinx is about 2,000 kilometers.
It is the midsummer month, and the temperatures in Ellington and Alects are around 38 degrees at this moment, which means that the two cities are in similar dimensions. According to the vegetation, it should be the subtropical climate north of the Tropic of Cancer. In addition, the residents of Ellington said that there will be snow in winter, so it should be around 3035 degrees north latitude.
The reason for the north latitude rather than the south latitude is that the temperature decreases northward.
The span of a time zone on the Earth's equator is 1,666 kilometers. The distance of a time zone north of 30 degrees north latitude here is more than 2,000 kilometers. From this, it can be inferred that the size of the planet Pland is probably more than twice that of the Earth, and the gravity here should be more than twice that of the Earth.
Of course there are errors in these data. After all, he is not physical, but the difference in gravity should be very obvious. But what is interesting is that when he travels here, he does not feel the abnormality in gravity. His body seems to have been used to the gravity of this world, and even he himself did not notice the difference in gravity at the beginning.
But these are not important, so I skip it and come back to the story.
Seeing that Tang En was so confused, Fiona was too lazy to talk nonsense to him anymore. She rolled her eyes and muttered to leave.
After Donn greeted Tina, he hurried back to the teleportation array. A flash of light came back to Yalinx.
At this moment, Ellington was still dusk, but Yalinx was already at night. Elsa, Eliya and others were bored, so when the shop closed, they left Hilton first.
After Tang En checked the shop's defensive magic array, he also staggered into the carriage and went back.
After returning to the Foel Family Manor, I saw Obery and Elsa sitting in the back garden chatting.
Judging from their smiles, Aubury, who seemed to be having a happy chat, was probably very happy.
"Hey, I'm back"
After seeing Tang En, Obery laughed and patted his shoulder: "Good guy, I heard that you sold your things short just after opening the door today. It is said that the entire Yarinks is discussing your Tang Chamber of Commerce. If nothing unexpected happens, the topic that those guys will discuss tonight will be you."
Tang En smiled slightly: "I just hope they won't discuss how to kill me."
"It's also possible. After all, you took out millions of gold coins from their pockets today. Everyone can see that. Although they are so painful, they still have to smile. Can you not curse you in private?"
"As the so-called noble, it's so normal to be fat when you slapped the swollen face, Elsa, Iriya."
Tang En suddenly came to his senses and waved at them: "It's almost time, let's go."
Aubury was stunned: "Eat soon, where are you going?"
Donn pulled Elsa and Iriya, then jumped over the fence in the back garden and said casually: "Mr. Adrien invites us to come here to visit in the evening."
"Adrien, this bastard"
Obery was so angry that he stomped his feet. He had thought of showing his granddaughter a good skill to barbecue at night, but he was stabbed by him to continue.
