Chapter 283: Elven Designer
When Fiona hurried back with the news, Don was sitting leisurely in the courtyard drinking tea, and not far away, Elia was riding a bicycle with training wheels and shouting happily, and the maids were standing beside her with low eyebrows, looking quiet and peaceful.
Then Fiona furrowed her brow and ran to Don in a hurry.
"What's the situation?"
"Nothing."
Tang En spread his hands: "I guess who is not happy with me, so send someone to assassinate me." β
Fiona stomped her foot angrily: "Someone wants to assassinate you, and you are still so calm!?" β
"How else? Trying to make a face all day long and saying that I was assassinated? β
"So I just can't stand your calm attitude!"
Fiona, who was holding back her anger, grabbed Donn's teacup and took a few sips, and put it on the table heavily: "I know I'm worried about you, but you don't care at all, which makes me feel like a fool!" β
Tang En teased: "Don't you know my strength, what are you afraid of." β
Even if you know your strength, it's easy to mess up because you care too much!
Fiona opened her mouth, just about to take advantage of the momentum to speak, and then Grantia's voice sounded from behind: "What's wrong?" It feels like all the magic around here is out of order. β
This guy!
Fiona swallowed her words, glanced at Grantia resentfully, and then said angrily, "Let him explain." β
"It's nothing, it's just assassinated. But something seems to have happened. β
Tang En said casually: "The inside of the room has been completely razed, the bed, the cabinet. The ornaments and everything were crushed to pieces by the magic of chaos, and there was nothing left but the walls and floors reinforced by the magic array. β
After a pause, Don continued, "But there is a strong smell of blood in the room, so I suspect it...... The guy who assassinated me was probably unlucky, and he probably accidentally set off a goblin bomb in his room and killed himself. β
"It's a shameβ"
Fiona looked at her suspiciously. Grandia's face froze, and she changed her words casually, "-Oh, I mean." It's a shame that there are no clues. β
"Well, that's right."
Tang En nodded: "But don't worry too much, I didn't pay attention to this kind of assassination anyway." β
That's right, after learning from Nice Claire that she was Purandal's hope. He knew that he was a child of destiny.
Since he is protected by the gods of this world. How could he die on the side of the road so casually, it's not Gu Long's novel world, he is possessed by the aura of the protagonist in the real sense.
"Can you be sure who sent it?"
"Who else but the Kadir family?"
Don joked: "I put it on the slam hard, I definitely can't swallow this breath." β
"And what are you going to do?"
"Let's hang it first, I don't have time to play with them now."
Don waved his hand indifferently and looked at Grandia with interest: "How are you feeling these two days?" β
"Very bad."
Grantia sat down unceremoniously across from him and looked at Don with disdain: "You are really bad at squeezing the labor of a girl's family like this." β
"You're a girl, too?"
Tang En pouted: "How is the grain reserve for the winter?" β
"The gap has almost been filled."
Speaking of which. The expression on Fiona's face softened a little: "But because of the policy of attracting displaced people to settle down, there is also the effect of the influence that spread out early on. Recently, more and more people have been recruited, and the number of outsiders per day has increased from a few to dozens. β
"Oh, it seems to be working well, do a good job of their resettlement, the homeless are an unstable factor, but if you deal with it, you will have a strong sense of belonging to us, and you will spontaneously protect Ellington."
"Of course I do."
Fiona said angrily, "If I wait for you to speak, Ellington doesn't know what the mess will be." β
Don touched his nose a little embarrassed: "Isn't this you...... Oh, by the way, how's the arrangement going over there? β
"You mean the design department?"
Fiona opened the book and took a look, and said, "The progress is okay, those elf ladies have already come up with a few new design plans, and now they are waiting for you to see them." β
"I hope it won't be the same design style that doesn't ...... the same way"
Don smiled wryly and stood up, and followed Fiona to the design team.
Remember saying before, what did Donn like about the elves?
Aside from the druid's life magic, it's their art style.
The elves live in harmony with nature in the Emerald Forest, and although their social form is primitive, their art has far surpassed that of humans, especially their harmonious, natural crafts - because they produce very little, they have become a luxury ornament sought after by the human aristocracy.
Of course, Don didn't seek them out to be craftsmen, but to make them the first artistic designers of Purandal.
What are the disadvantages of Ellington's magic furniture?
The inhabitants of Ellington may not be able to see it, but the nobles know very well that whether it is a large appliance such as a magic air conditioner or refrigerator, or a small appliance such as a kettle or hair dryer, it lacks beauty!
Yes!
Donn, who came to Purendal in the era of the information explosion, designed magical furniture that was not beautiful in the eyes of these nobles.
The function is indeed very powerful, very novel, and very easy to use, but after a long time, it will feel like something is missing when it is placed there.
What is lacking is the decoration attached to household appliances.
This is Donn's own shortcoming, so he has to admit that not only him, but also the people who designed the plan together, whether it is Brian or Edgar, are both big and rough, and they are better at crafting weapons and armor, so adhering to the principle that rough is beautiful, of course, the things designed will not look good.
That's why Don thought of the elves.
Now, the elven girls who came to Ellington have a clear division of labor, and Daintrian and Sanye took eight other elf girls to form the Tang Publishing House, who are responsible for writing novels and drawing comics according to the outline and concepts given by Tang, and then printing them for the sale of the Tang Chamber of Commerce.
In addition to Grandia's special task, the other ten elf girls formed the Datang Product Design Department under the command of Tang En, which was responsible for designing the appearance of the product.
After all, good-looking things are always more popular, right?
"Donn."
A beautiful elf, well, a fairy is always pretty, so there is no need to stress this point in particular, and the elf Ariri stood up and happily showed Don their new results: "This is the result of the revision according to your opinion. β
Alyselle is the head of the Elf Girls who leads the Product Design Department.
Don took it and glanced at it, his tense face finally relaxed.
"Yes, you've finally been able to combine art with practicality."
Don complimented them, and Arily and the others immediately laughed happily.
It's not that it's perfunctory, but it's really progressive, and the shapes they designed before were either too simple - simple to achieve the production process at all, or too complex, and complex can multiply the production cost several times......
If it is not required to meet the requirements of the production process, Ai Lili and their design brain hole can be so big that it is boundless, after Tang En painstakingly explained to them the relationship between the appearance design and the internal structure of the product and the production process, they have finally mastered the know-how, and the designed plan has finally been practical.
The first design drawing is the current flagship product of the Datang Chamber of Commerce, the design drawing of the magic energy air conditioner, which is the mainstream model, the wall-mounted dual-mode air conditioner, Tang En's original design plan is very simple, it is a flat cuboid, the air outlet is in front, to be honest, and the aesthetics are really not touched.
In the design plan of Arili, the volume of the air conditioner has been reduced by one-third again, and the shape has become more rounded, simple and elegant like a green leaf spreading.
Tang En nodded while looking at it, in addition to the air conditioner, the other products Ai Lili and they also came up with the corresponding new appearance design, which is not much better than the original Tang En's design plan.
Fiona was looking at it with a serious face, but after looking at it for a while, she couldn't help but start laughing.
Before Arili's design plan, those magic furniture actually looked pretty good, but after seeing the new design, and thinking back to the current shape, Fiona finally understood a sentence: people have to die more than people, and goods have to be thrown away......
"Yes, yes!"
After reading it, Don was very satisfied: "Elves are all artists, this sentence is really true." β
The results of their design were recognized, and Elili and the others were very happy.
"Immediately print a few more copies of the new design drawings and give them to Brian and Edgar so they can start making the corresponding molds."
Don immediately instructed Fiona: "In addition, inform the factory that the production speed should be as soon as possible, and the new generation of products must be fully stocked in advance and ready to deal with the next orders." β
"We need to get the next generation of products ready before the glorious festival."
Fiona paused and raised her head in surprise: "Glorious Festival? My lord, are you planning to go to the Imperial Capital for a festival? β
"That's right."
Tang En showed a bright smile: "Such a grand event, how can we be without our Datang Chamber of Commerce?" This is a great time for us to engage in event promotions and brush up on our presence. (To be continued.) )
PS: I learned a lot from the class yesterday...... Niche ...... T.T
Anyway, the long-awaited reinforcement push is finally coming tomorrow, dry daddy!
