Chapter 25

The news revealed in Donne's words is so attractive to the dwarves that you can see from Brian's reaction.

Although Donne didn't say anything specifically, the little things he inadvertently mentioned were enough to open the door to Brian's new world.

Brian, who had planned to leave tomorrow, suddenly changed his mind. He felt that he might as well stay in Ellington as travel elsewhere.

Maybe Donne will surprise him with other surprises!

"Stay and help me?"

Donne looked surprised, and then waved his hand again and again: "that's funny. No, no! You're a dwarf... Uh, um, dwarf! Ellington has a blacksmith. I can find him if I need anything. The same."

This cunning boy!

Brian scolded secretly in his heart. He sold well when he got a bargain!

"How could it be the same?"

Brian pointed to himself and said proudly, "I don't boast. Even among our dwarves, my forging technology is one of the best! As long as you can say anything, I can type it for you! And the quality is absolutely first-class!"

In fact, Brian really doesn't boast that a dwarf blacksmith is very popular wherever he is, so he is willing to stay in Ellington. Don actually made a lot of money.

But this guy just didn't take the bait. He didn't take the bait until Donne threw out some dry goods, which made Donne a little unhappy, so he deliberately fished his appetite.

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

So Donne is confident that he can keep Brian.

"Really?" Donne looked at Brian suspiciously.

Brian patted his chest: "of course it's true!"

"I hope you won't regret it then."

Donne accepted Brian with a strange expression.

Many of the things he conceived can't be made at all now, because the world lacks the most basic industrial system and everything has to start from scratch. Brian's forging ability and his alchemy technology are the root of all this.

He will set units and standards from scratch. Here, he will be the founder of everything.

Donne plans to completely rebuild the whole of Ellington - now Ellington's construction scale is not large, the reconstruction cost is low, and it is still acceptable.

Moreover, he is still the Lord. Everyone should obey his orders, and there is no need to worry about opposition.

Rebuilding Ellington can also inject vitality into the town and give everyone something to do.

In short, it is a good thing to kill more with one stone. [e2]

After quietly re planning Ellington, they had come to the edge of the farmland outside.

"The farmland area in Ellington is not small, but before, due to buck and others, most of the farmland was abandoned and there was no reclamation and planting. If we mobilize and reuse this part of farmland, we can catch up with the harvest."

Donne thought for a moment and said, "then mobilize and say what I say. For those who open up new farmland, the harvest tax of the new farmland will be exempted in that year and reduced by half the next year. I believe they will be happy to do it."

Fiona gave Donne a white look, and the guy waved the banner of tax reduction again, but since he had decided, Fiona could only write it down.

"Lord!"

When the farmers in the field saw Donne, they stopped their work and saluted him.

Donne nodded, his eyes fell on the farm tools beside them, and he could not help frowning: "Fiona, the farmers in the Empire use this kind of farm tools?"

The farm tools they use to take care of the farmland are actually made of wood.

"I think so. What's the matter?"

"Why not use iron?"

"Iron?"

Fiona widened her eyes: "iron is so important. Of course, it is used to build weapons and armor to defend the country. How can it be used to build agricultural tools?"

Donne looked up at the sky speechless. A moment later, youyou said, "Fiona, what do you say is the root of a country's stability?"

"The root of stability?"

Fiona obviously didn't think about it. After thinking about it, she said tentatively, "the combat effectiveness of the army?"

"I think you are a strong master?"

Elsa put forward different opinions: "if there are legendary experts in charge, the country will be much more stable."

"Yes, that's not right," Don shook his head. "You don't see through the root. Whether it's the army or legendary experts, they are the people."

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

"If the people of a country can't even eat enough, and the problem they worry about every day is what to do with the next meal, how can the country be strong? Can it not be chaotic? On the contrary, if everyone in a country can eat enough and don't have to worry about hunger, people will naturally think about other things after eating enough, such as making money, exercising war skills and magic, enhancing combat effectiveness, and strengthening the country Our strength will be strong. "

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

At this point, Donne suddenly asked, "where's Brian?"

"I arranged a house for him this morning. He said he would decorate it, at least like a blacksmith's workshop."

"Well."

At the beginning, Tang en didn't expect that an important reason for the low grain output here was that the tools didn't meet the standard. Isn't this a joke? Iron must be used! Go back and talk to Brian.

After a while, we'll explore the world and study the magic power. Maybe we can integrate the agricultural machinery such as scarifier, planter and combine harvester? [e3]

Donne rubbed his chin and smiled strangely.

At this time, Donne was stunned: "how can this place do this?"
