Chapter 402 Goblins Are Arms Dealers
"Stop expansion for the time being? Why?"
Fiona looked puzzled: "At the current development speed, we will soon be able to include the Lady Hills within the new urban area, and there is no need to slow down."
"The development speed is very fast, but haven't you found that the population of Xincheng District is very sparse? It's almost turned into a ghost town."
Tang En spread his hands: "We are developing much faster than other cities, and the population drainage and growth rate cannot keep up with the development speed. Next, it is time to consolidate internal construction."
After the urban expansion is completed, internal facilities will be much more important. After all, these internal facilities are truly related to the happiness of the people living here.
Green space, public toilets, direct drinking water, parks, convenience stores, public travel bicycle rental points...
Tang En planned the entire new Ellington completely in the style of a modern city. Of course, the modern planning style and the architectural style of the magic world are a bit weird, but who else would know this except Tang En?
"Anyway, in the past few days, you will first re-arrange the focus of human resources allocation and the work arrangements of those people."
After saying that, Tang En stood up: "I will go back to Sharkhara after I prepare the things later. After getting the magic-removing stone, I will come back. The focus of the next step of work must be tilted, but I will make arrangements after I come back."
Fiona nodded and sat back on the chair, relaxing her tense nerves these days. Tina next to her has been red since she returned to Ellington. She had thought she would die in the underground world before.
"Lord!"
At this time, Marin, who was left in the lord's mansion, hurried over and stopped Tang En who was about to leave: "I, I, I have something important to report!"
"You can take a breath first..."
Tang En stopped and waited for Marlin to take a few breaths before he asked, "What's so urgent?"
"Yes, that's it... A few days after you took people to the Underworld, the manager of Star Diamond Bank came. The goblin manager named Garyan Burning the Crown has been looking for you these days."
Garyan Burst? The goblin manager who received his own at Yarinks Star Diamond Bank Branch? Why did he come to Ellington?
Tang En was stunned, suddenly thought of something, and was overjoyed: "Where is he now?"
"Just live in Oak Heart Tavern."
Donne rushed to Oak Heart Tavern immediately.
Old Tom and Aunt Fanny looked surprised when they saw Tang En, and immediately came over to salute: "Lord!"
"Which room is Garyan's bomber?"
"I will lead the Lord."
Old Tom immediately led the way with diligent guidance. Thanks to Tangen's drastic reforms and the promotion of various welfare policies, the living standards of Ellington residents are increasing. In addition, the overall productivity of Ellington has increased, attracting a large number of outsiders to settle here.
The increase in fixed residents has also attracted many migrant populations, and adventurers who pass by nearby routes no longer choose to detour, but come to Ellington for replenishment.
Therefore, the Oak Heart Tavern, which has been influenced by many aspects, is now the most popular tavern and rest place in Ellington. There is no way, Ellington has only one tavern and hotel, and it is so easy to make a profit in monopoly business.
After sending Done outside Garian's door, Old Tom stepped down and Done knocked on the door.
"Please come in."
It was indeed him.
Tang En smiled slightly and pushed the door open.
"Well...What a exquisite design... it's simply a masterpiece of a god..."
As soon as he entered the door, Tang En saw Garian lying next to the table to study magic appliances. Several poor magic appliances were dismantled.
"Damage to the property of the tavern requires three times the compensation."
"I'm not damaged, I'll assemble it-oh! Don! My friend! You're finally back!"
Garian suddenly woke up, turned around and thrust at Tang En, laughing, and his sharp voice scared Tang En.
Why is this guy so excited?
"Manager Garian, I didn't expect you to come to Ellington, and I hope my people don't let you suffer any grievances."
"Aggrieved? No! Of course not!"
Garian shook his head with a sharp throat: "It's amazing here! Really! I never thought I would see humans, dwarves and those stupid dwarfs living together-oh! I even saw elemental creatures working here! It's incredible!"
Tang En's mouth twitched, and when he praised Ellington, he did not forget to belittle the dwarfs. Sure enough, these two races have become popular since the big explosion in ancient times.
"Thank you for your compliment, I feel very honored."
Donn paused for a moment, and as soon as he was about to speak, Garian laughed and said, "——In addition, I am no longer a manager."
"oh?"
Tang En smiled slightly and knew it in his heart: "I guess, maybe it's... the branch president?"
"You are worthy of being my friend! You are so smart! You should be a goblin!"
Tang En was speechless. These guys really like to gild their faces.
"I am honored to inform you of this news. My friend, the application I submitted has finally received a reply from the headquarters!"
Garian screamed and cheered: "After discussing and on-site observation, I finally agreed to the application for the Ellington Construction Branch, and I will be fortunate to become the first branch president!"
In Star Diamond Bank, the promotion from manager to branch president is not as simple as the promotion of staff. It requires multiple performance appraisals, so Garian is so excited.
"Congratulations...wait! Observation on the spot? When?"
Tang En was stunned. He had never received an observer from Star Diamond Bank.
"A month ago."
After thinking for a while, Garian said, "Observers generally do not reveal their identities. Dragons have always liked to change their identities and wander around the world. It is normal for you to not know."
"You mean, the observer is a dragon? And he's swaying around my territory?"
Tang En took a breath of air conditioning, and a giant dragon walked around Ellington, but he was unaware of it. Fortunately, the other party did not intend to take action, otherwise Ellington would probably be destroyed instantly!
"That's right, the observers of Star Diamond Bank are all giant dragons, and they will be stationed in branches in the future. There will be a giant dragon observer in each branch to supervise it. Of course, it is more important to check the accounts every day."
Garian complained: "Or do you think it's easy to do business with those big guys? They are so careful that they don't look like giant creatures - they can calculate one less gold coin on the account one day!"
"And it is always very difficult for customers to withdraw money. You should also know how difficult it is for them to spit out the gold coins that have entered the Dragon Treasure House. But the circulation of gold coins is to earn more gold coins. They clearly understand this principle, so they are too stingy!?"
Tang En's three views were refreshed again, and this was the first time he heard the goblin scold the dragon for being stingy...
Isn’t this a stingy guy scolding a rooster?
But no matter what, Star Diamond Bank is about to open to Ellington, which is a good thing after all.
Seeing that Garian was still unsatisfied, Tang En hurriedly said, "Manager Garian..."
Noting Garyan's expression, Donn paused for a moment, then quickly changed his words: "Governor Garyan."
Garian smiled.
"In fact, I have an important urgent matter now that I need help with."
"Oh? It's okay, just say it!"
Garian waved his hand with a hearty look: "Based on our relationship, the loan amount is easy to say!"
“Uh, not a loan.”
Tang En wiped his cold sweat. Who can afford the loan from the goblin and the dragon to open a bank?
"Actually, it's true. I heard my chief craftsman Nokia mention it a long time ago. I admire your technological strength that is brave enough to innovate-"
Garian immediately said proudly: "That's inevitable! Time is money! Explosion is art! Dwarf idiots can only do whatever they want. If they hadn't dragged their backs, our ancestors would have already sailed into the sea of stars! If an egg hatched a duck, it must be the fault of Dwarf technology!"
Damn!? The goblin's journey was the sea of stars!?
Damn!?Durandon's words were indeed right!
Tang En wiped his cold sweat again and said, "Although I know you are the president of the bank, I am the only one of you, a familiar goblin friend, so this unhappy request can only be found for you...I want to buy a batch of high-explosive bombs."
As soon as he heard Tang En's request, golden light flashed in Garian's eyes. Tang En felt a whirlwind blowing, and then Garian in front of him changed into another outfit with lightning speed. Compared with the elegant outfit before, Garian was pitch black at this moment, with fake scars on his green skin, and a thick cigar in his mouth, sucking in his fog.
"Dear customer, what type of goods do you need? - Oh, don't mind, this cigar is a harmless decorative prop."
Garian pressed the brim: "We have micro-engineering explosives for mining, specialized weakened fireworks for performances, trigger mines specially used for battlefield traps and ambushing, and super kamikaze explosives with enhanced power... Oh, by the way, if you need mines, I would like to recommend you the latest magic iron mines. The magic-treated shell will produce an amazing power bonus in the explosion - of course the price is also more expensive..."
Tang En looked at Garyan who had transformed himself and was stunned: "Aren't you the president of Star Diamond Bank? Why are you still doing arms business?"
From a gentle bank president to an arms dealer, the contrast between the two was too big, and Tang En couldn't accept it.
"Tsk tsk, this guest, your view is outdated... Who said that the bank president can't do arms business?"
Garian spitted a smoke ring and smiled proudly: "It is precisely because he is the president of the bank that he is so ok to do arms business!"
