Chapter 24 Magic is on the left, technology is on the right, I'm in the middle
In the restaurant, there are so many wines.
"Big brother, it's really thanks to you this time!"
Brian laughed and raised his glass: "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know how long it would take to drink! For precious freedom and delicious ale, we'll toast!"
Tang En twitched the corner of his mouth and clinked the glass with him. Before he could drink it, he saw Brian gurgling and drank all the ale in the glass. Then he picked up the barrel next to him and filled it with another glass, raised the glass and clinked it with Tang En again.
"Oh my big brother, do you know that from the first sight of you, I thought we were particularly destined to be together. I knew you were definitely not an ordinary human being when I saw you. Look at you, you are actually a lord! - For the lord, for Ellington! I'll have another drink!"
Brian looked up and went down with another glass of wine.
...He definitely did it on purpose.
Donne felt that Brian said so much was nonsense, and drinking so much was his real purpose.
"Oh, big brother, you don't know, because our food production is average, some small tribes are sometimes hungry, so there is not much grain used to make wine..."
"Then you won't make wine."
"How can I not make wine!"
Brian suddenly widened his eyes: "I would rather be hungry for a day than drink without alcohol for a day!"
"Then how did you survive without alcohol these days when you were arrested?"
Tang En gave him a blank look. Simply put, these dwarves are still not hungry. Then again, since they are the people created by the goddess of earth, when they are too hungry, the goddess will probably take action, right?
It's great to have a golden thigh to hold it...
While drinking with Brian, Donn thought about it. To be honest, Ellington's grain production is not high now, and there is not much to use for making wine. However, after Hogg's influence gradually disappears, Ellington's situation will gradually get better.
In fact, Tang En felt very strange because the magic in this world was not popularized by civilians, but was basically isolated from ordinary people, just like military technology in his previous life.
If magic can be used civilized, it will definitely liberate productivity a lot, and the world will be more energetic!
In Tang En's view, magic is a very special force, which can easily achieve many phenomena that cannot be achieved on earth. The most important thing is that magic can be used as a clean and pollution-free source of power!
On Earth, the principle of an internal combustion engine is to intermittently ignite atomized gasoline in a sealed combustion chamber, thereby causing a small explosion to expand the air and further push the piston to drive the engine to run. It looks very complicated? In fact, it can be explained in one sentence that the heating of combustion causes the air to expand and perform mechanical work.
And can this principle be realized with magic? It is absolutely possible!
It can even be done better!
Because magic can achieve zero pollution!
This is also what Tang En was most excited about. What kind of amazing charm will many things that have been in the past life be born after they are combined with magic?
He didn't know, but he wanted to know.
So he has begun to plan how to combine Earth technology with Plandal's magic. If magic can be used to replace electricity and internal combustion engines as power, many machinery on the earth can be transplanted here.
At that time, a storm will surely set off a storm and completely liberate agricultural productivity.
How important is liberating agricultural productivity to the development and progress of society? Just look at the history of various countries on the earth.
However, if you want to get those things out, Tang En also faces a very serious problem.
Materials and processing technology are not up to date.
There are many special magic metals in this world, and all kinds of properties are very superior, but they are very precious and rare, so I'd better forget to use magic metal to forge the product.
What is really feasible is to use ordinary metal to refine various alloys, or add a small amount of magic metal.
Thinking of this, Tang En's eyes fell on Brian who was drinking fine wine. If he wanted to make all kinds of alloys, he would probably be better than looking for dwarves than anyone else.
Tang En suddenly had a bright smile on his face: "Come on, keep drinking, and eat these meat chops as much as you like. After you go back, you may not be able to eat such good things. By the way, do you want me to ask the cook to bring you some food on the way?"
Donn did not directly talk to Brian about staying. The best situation was that Brian was nostalgic for life here and stayed voluntarily.
Brian was overjoyed when he heard this: "Of course! Oh my brother, you are really too enthusiastic. If it weren't for the conditions in your territory that were too difficult, I would have wanted to stay for a while!"
“…”
Tang En's mouth twitched. This guy's mouth really deserves a beating...
"The conditions are difficult, so there are challenges," Fiona said as if nothing had happened. "What's more, as long as it doesn't take long, Ellington will become prosperous and rich under the leadership of Lord Tangen. At that time, merchants from all over the world gather here, and all kinds of delicacies will appear here, and Ellington's living conditions will naturally improve."
"oh oh!"
Brian exclaimed: "Fiosa, you really believe in the big brother!"
"My name is Fiona!"
Fiona resisted the urge to hit someone and corrected Brian's name with a stern face: "I believe in Lord Tangen, and my own strength!"
“It’s fun, it’s really fun.”
Brian said as he poured himself a glass of wine and started drinking.
Seeing that Brian was not taking the bait, Don was a little itchy. Seeing this, Fiona racked her brains and suddenly asked: "It is said that it is difficult to be an enemy of the people of the earth, and it is even more difficult to be friends. Is this true?"
"Of course!"
Hearing Fiona called him the people of the earth, Brian's eyes were curled into a line: "It's not me to blow, why is it difficult to be our enemy? Because all the enemies were killed by us! Why is it even harder to be our friends? Because we can't drink us!"
Blow! Keep blowing! Blow hard!
Tang En looked contempt and the idea of getting high-alcohol liquor was even stronger. At that time, we must let this guy know what wine is!
"But you call Lord Tang En, Brother, does this mean you regard Lord Tang En as a friend?"
"Of course, my eldest brother and I fell in love with each other when we saw each other, not to mention that the eldest brother saved me, right? Come and have one of them!"
Deep, deep!?
Fiona looked at them with a terrifying look on her face, and Don clinked at the wine glass with a blank expression.
Probably a misunderstanding...
"So," said Fiona, "you have not yet repay Lord Tang's life-saving grace."
However, Brian slapped the table very generously: "Haha, Feisha, what are you saying? Since you are a friend, why do you say that you will repay your kindness or not? I know that the eldest brother definitely doesn't care, right? Besides, I, a dwarf who is so poor, can't come up with anything to repay your kindness?"
This guy has an invincible face!
Tang En was amazed in his heart. If it weren't for discovering the special feature of the treasure-handed warhammer, Tang En would have been deceived by his acting skills.
Fiona said with a slight smile: "My name is Fiona. In addition, if you want to repay your kindness, you don't have to take out something. Ellington is short of talents. Aren't dwarves good at forging? You can stay and help Lord Lord."
"This," Brian burped, his seemingly honest face full of cunning, "I am too eye-catching as an alien in a human town, so forget it."
Seeing what else Fiona wanted to say, Don Eun waved his hand gently to stop her, and then smiled and said, "Fiona, don't be rude. Brian is a guest, we can't repay kindness."
Fiona turned her face angrily and kicked Done directly under the table.
I was clearly helping him! How could he do this!
Donn picked up his wine glass very gracefully and started chatting with Brian. The topic was accidentally brought to the iron and forging.
"Big brother, it's not me. If we talk about the skills of smelting and forging, no one dares to be the first! But I have never heard of such a metal! It's light in weight, high strength, wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and no rust... How is that possible! If it's pure gold or Aojin, it may have this kind of nature, but... pure gold and Aojin are not light!"
Brian widened his eyes, with a look of "I read too much and you can't deceive me."
Tang En picked up the wine glass very calmly and said, "I haven't heard of it because you have little knowledge... The metal you just mentioned is an alloy."
"alloy?"
Hearing this strange word, Brian became interested: "What is an alloy?"
Tang En curled his lips and said, "Do you know about composite materials?"
“Composite?”
Brian looked confused.
"The artificial materials produced are composite materials by combining the advantages of two or more materials."
"Oh! I know this. Sometimes we add a small amount of pure gold and Aojin to the weapon materials to enhance the enchantment effect. Composite materials? Alloys? It sounds like a very appropriate statement. Big brother really has you!"
Tang En smiled and bent his fingers and knocked on the table: "Think about it, what impact will a material be reliable, durable, light and easy to carry after making armor?"
Reliable and durable, light and easy to carry?
Brian thought for a moment and his breathing suddenly became much faster. What is the impact?
It's simply turned upside down!
The armor has become lighter and the marching speed has increased significantly. It can last longer with the military food and grass, and can support longer combat, which means that the combat range that the army can actually control is wider.
"Oh, by the way, Fiona, I almost forgot," Don clapped his hands, "Hey, help me contact the blacksmith in Ellington tomorrow. I have some ideas to communicate with him... Huh? Brian? Why are you looking at me? Drinking, you can't drink so much when you go back."
