The flush toilet, known as the greatest invention in the history of human beings on the earth, solves the toilet problem that has plagued people for thousands of years, clean, convenient, clean, and makes the original smelly Europe return to the new era of the Qing Dynasty, which shows how important this invention is.

Before Don came to Plantal, he had never found the toilet so important that he had to keep the design and production of the toilet a priority.

And this project was a natural fit after he discovered the clay mine.

Before setting off for Alink, Don had already left Fiona a set of structural drawings of the fired ceramics and toilets that he had sorted out, and he had specially marked the more important places, especially the automatic pumping valve and the U-shaped pipe that drained the water underneath, and he hoped that Fiona and Brian could organize themselves to study it by hand.

To Tang's surprise, in just half a month, they have successfully produced a batch of flush toilets, urinals, and even those ceramic tableware.

"You're very efficient!"

Tang En touched the surface of the ceramic with great interest, the familiar feel was the smooth enamel, although the ceramic toilet they fired was incomparable to the craftsmanship on earth, but it already had a shape, and it could be used together and connected to the drainage system and water supply pipes.

Fiona pointed to a few gnomes not far away and smiled: "Although Brian is very interested, but he is still busy with the research work on the properties of new steel, and he doesn't have time to get these things, it just so happened that Mr. Cloto came to visit, and after seeing the drawings, he became interested, and then he led a team of gnomes to join the research work." The properties of this ceramic you mentioned gave him many new inspirations, and he praised the lord for his cleverness many times. ”

"That's an exaggeration."

Donn chuckled and shook his head. If it was Cloto, it would be understandable, he himself was an engineer, and he was still the most powerful master craftsman among the gnomes, and this kind of craft that had nothing to do with magical power was not difficult for him to get started with.

But as the leader of the gnomes, is it really okay for this guy to do nothing all day?

"So," Donn grinned, gesturing at several toilets that were noticeably smaller. "Is this what they prepared for themselves?"

"Mr. Cloto thinks your idea is very good, and he would be happy to try this flush toilet and say something else......"

Fiona stretched out her hands: "The water project you are talking about has long been popularized by Mr. Croto, and he is willing to help us speed up the construction of this project - in fact he has already sent many gnomes to help us build the territory." ”

"Popularized? All right. ”

Don was helpless, was it so difficult for him to order something from the earth?

The last time he was in Gear City, he was just a casual pass, and he really didn't know what the daily life of the gnomes was like.

But this is more normal, a race that studies science and engineering. Without the convenience of supernatural powers, one can only strive to develop industrially.

Moreover, the aristocracy in Alinks also has a convenient magic water supply system, and only the poor and white Ellington is here like a primitive society.

Poor Don thought at first that he had come to a "primitive society" and that everything he had at his fingertips could create a history, but what happened? Reality slapped him hard......

"Well, tell me, what does Mr. Cloto want?"

There is no love without a reason in this world, and there is no hate without a reason. Cloto was willing to help him, which is certainly a good thing. But Don will definitely have to pay some price too.

"Your lord, you're really smart."

Fiona gave Donne a small compliment, and then whispered, "He told me that he wanted you to provide me with the detailed idea of the internal combustion engine mentioned earlier, and he said that they have built several small models, but they seem to have some problems with ignition and combustion chamber materials......"

He said that if they got the idea in detail and decided to try it a few last times, if they couldn't solve the problem. They've started researching the combination of magic and engineering to solve power problems, and they're already adding researchers to magic crystals. Cloto also said that if you have time, it is best to go over and give you on-site guidance. ”

"Then he also let me tell you that your previous suggestion for the Gnome Metro they have taken. He welcomes you to try the Gnome Metro again, and is willing to help us build a railroad connecting the Dwarven Kingdom to Ellington - for the help of your suggestion for the Gnome Project, they will be very cheap. ”

"Other than that......"

Fiona said something she didn't even understand, paying attention to Don's expression, and when she realized that Don really seemed to understand these things, she was helpless again.

The surprises that the lord brought to her were really endless......

Don smiled bitterly: "Klotto, this guy is really ...... Okay, I know, I'll leave you a drawing of the internal combustion engine before I go back, you can give it to him if he comes back, he asks about the ignition, you just tell him the word 'timer', ordinary metals can't withstand the impact of the combustion chamber, let him try a few magic metals. ”

"Understood, what is the railroad he is talking about?"

"A fixed-route rapid transportation mode that can transport a large number of goods and people, which is very useful for improving efficiency, originally I wanted to slowly develop and then lay the railway, but I didn't expect him to say that he would help us build the railway......"

Don couldn't laugh or cry, this is very similar to the foreigners who came to build the railway at the end of the 19th century......

Fiona was excited when she heard that it would improve transportation efficiency: "What do you mean?" ”

"The railway must be repaired, but this can be put aside for a while, and there is no need to worry, because the cost of building a railway is very high, and we can't afford it now."

Fiona breathed a sigh of relief, "I see, I thought you didn't know."

"What do I know?"

"We don't have any money."

"Huh?"

Don was dumbfounded: "How come?" Isn't there still more than 200,000 gold coins!? ”

Fiona was stunned for a moment, then shouted angrily, "You don't know!? ”

"You've always been in charge of the accounts!"

"That's right! But do you think that the gold in the vault will always increase!? ”

Fiona waved her finger and began to settle accounts for Donne: "You took 50,000 gold coins with you when you went out, and this is only 150,000 left, and it cost a lot to buy copper ingots with Durandon, right?" The various welfare policies and salary increase plans you have promulgated in your territory will cost tens of thousands of gold coins every month! And then the construction of these factories and all kinds of infrastructure construction, these are not a small amount! ”

Fiona said urgently: "I thought you had a plan for a long time, so many projects were not paid to them, but because they are all newcomers, they are very motivated to work, and they are not urging to pay for the accounts - in fact, it is all your fault!" Wouldn't it be nice not to promise a salary in the first place? You can save a lot of money! ”

Fiona is still haunted by Donn's promise that those who join the reconstruction project will be paid, as she said, Donn is the lord, and if he wants to rebuild the territory, then the people must obey unconditionally and give their strength, and if they do not obey the order, it will be a crime and can be sentenced to death!

Don was so kind to them, so kind that Fiona felt like he was a saint on earth, the Son of God had come!

"So, we're out of money!"

Fiona said helplessly: "If you can't find a way to make money as soon as possible, I'm afraid you will face a very serious crisis of trust, and our current construction scene in Ellington will collapse immediately." ”

"Okay, okay, I was negligent......"

Don knocked on the ceramic toilet bowl and said thoughtfully, "It seems that I will stay in Alinks for a few more days this time......"

"What are your plans?"

"Hmm...... If nothing else, you should be able to earn a sum of gold coins before the end of the month to alleviate it, and whether you can make a lot of money depends on whether our products are powerful enough. ”

Donne's eyes narrowed slightly, and now if he wanted to solve the problem of the economic crisis immediately, he could only find a way on the side of Alink.

Fiona immediately understood what Don meant, "You want to quickly recoup your money in the first few days of opening through that store in Alinks?" It's impossible, it's really impossible, no matter how popular our products are, it's impossible to make much profit by selling them. ”

"It depends on how you sell it."

Don En smiled very strangely: "Have you ever heard that many guys who claim to be nobles have a cheap problem? ”

"Huh?"

"Buy only the expensive ones, not the right ones."

Isn't that nonsense? But she thought about it carefully, and then she was stunned, because what Don said turned out to be the truth!

"The top nobles don't care about anyone's eyes, they can live their own life as they want, what they enjoy is the top life, and the top nobles will imitate the top nobles, and if they can't find the same thing, they will look for a substitute, only in this way will they get more praise and admiration among the same kind of people."

"In the same way, second-rate aristocrats will imitate the life of first-class nobles, and many descendants of declining nobles will even wear bright clothes at all costs, and maintain a bright appearance, because only in this way will they be integrated into the circle."

"Therefore, in order to chase the trend of the upper circles, those first-class second-rate aristocrats will spare no expense......"

"So now the question is, what will those guys do if they find out that the most famous Archduke of Ferel and Archduke Bolaite in the house of Illus are all provided by the Tang Chamber of Commerce, and those things are not only novel and interesting, but also really convenient and useful?"

“……”

Fiona looked at Don with a look of horror: "You plan to use the two dukes to make money!?" ”

"No, no, no!"

Don corrected Fiona very seriously: "Please pay attention to the words, this is just cooperation!" (To be continued.) )

PS: So here's the problem...... Do you have a ticket?
