Chapter 36: The impact of taste

In fact, Tang En still underestimated the impact of mint on Fiona.
He felt it was just a small change, but for the locals of Prendall, it was an unprecedented innovation.
The sweet change of the sweetness of sugar and the cool refreshment of mint instantly conquered the girl.
Tang En asked, "Do you have any plans for this mint?"
"Can it be produced in large quantities?"
"It is not difficult to make. It depends on the supply of raw materials. Sugar is okay to say, but peppermint grass has not promoted the cultivation of a large number of people here. It is estimated that only one batch can be produced by the riverside.
After thinking about it, Fiona said, "If possible, we can start our own workshops to produce mints. For sales, I can contact the outer members of the previous Golden Rose family and reorganize a chamber of commerce."
Tang En raised an eyebrow: "The Jin Qiangwei family has been dissolved. Would you like to find them?"
Fiona is very confident about this: "As long as there is profit and prospects, I believe they will come."
"Okay, I'll leave it to you. You write to contact those people now, and then issue an announcement in my name to push the residents of Ellington to collect mint grass. It was purchased at the price of kilograms, but they are bound to protect the beaches and not to dig indiscriminately. "
Fiona's face wondered: "One kilo?"
Tang En patted his head: "I forgot to tell you, this is the unit of weight I developed ... Well, forget it, I'll get a set of standard tools and a new standard of weights and measures for you, you At the same time, it will be published together with the announcement, and various statistical standards in Ellington will follow this standard. "
"I see. Anything else?"
"temporarily unavailable."
"Okay ... I want to eat more! Give me more!"
Before Fiona got up and left, she stretched out her little white hand, just like a greedy girl. She just ate one and fell in love with the taste.
She felt refreshed after eating mints.
Tang En smiled: "Eat that polysaccharide, be careful of tooth decay."
"Tooth decay? What is tooth decay?"
"Just ... uh, forget it, let me make you a toothbrush."
As Tang En said, he made Fiona a toothbrush with the remaining ponytail hair. As for the toothbrush handle, poor world tree branches ...
"this is?"
"Toothbrush, used to clean teeth."
Tang En took out his toothbrush and demonstrated it. Fiona immediately understood the function of this thing, and her eyes lit up: "Good thing!"
Even if you don't know the benefits of brushing your teeth, but you also know how uncomfortable it is to stuff things in your teeth. With this toothbrush, brushing your teeth will make your mouth more comfortable.
"Sent you."
Tang En casually threw the toothbrush to Fiona.
Immediately after Fiona went out, Tang En used iron ingots to give her a set of standard tools, including a meter ruler, a set of weights and a simple balance, as well as the title of weights and measures and several simple calculation formulas.
With these things, in Ellington, for the time being, Tang En can be considered a headache for the unit.
After doing this, Tang En watched that there were still a lot of mints left. He thought of Elijah, before joking about asking her to eat lollipops, but now there are no lollipops, but mints.
Anyway, nothing happened, Tang En collected some mints, then packed the rest in a small bag, and planned to send it to Yilia.
As soon as I got downstairs, I saw Tina cleaning up there, and Tang En greeted him, "Well, Tina, I'm still busy."
"Lord Lord."
Tina turned around and gave Tang En a gift, although the girl's heart was still a little bit resentful, but now she also figured it out.
The matter is actually very simple, Lord Lord is a good person, seeing that she is exhausted, so she just wants her to take a rest, but she thinks too complicated ...
All these misunderstandings are actually she thought too much.
Lord Lord does n’t even know he ’s misunderstood ...
Tina gave a glance at Tang En, but found that Tang En was pulling in a bag.
"Reach out."
"what?"
Tina froze. There were already a dozen sugar in her hands.
"This is my mint. You can eat it."
Tang En waved his hand, and when Tina returned to God, he was already out.
Sugar balls?
Tina's face was bewildered, hesitated, and pinched one into her mouth.
then……
Lightning cuts through my mind! The irritating and cold smell spread out in the mouth, and for a moment, the maid burst into tears with this strange smell.
Is this poison? It must be poison!
Where am I doing badly? Why does Lord Lord poison me?
Tina actually thought about it, standing there stupidly motionless.
It took a long time for her to return to her senses.
"Hmm ... I'm not dead?"
Tina blinked and froze again.
The taste in the mouth has been softened from the initial stimulus to a very strange but fascinating taste.
"Mint candy ...?"
Tina found out that she liked this thing in a blink of an eye. She carefully held the mints, found good sisters, and distributed them to share.
"Oh my God!" Marin exclaimed, covering her head, "I feel like lightning flashes in my head!"
"I seem to be frozen all over! Cool!"
"Magic, this must be some magic!"
"Curious and charming! Tina, this thing is really made by Lord Lord !?"
"Yes," Tina nodded hard. "Lord Lord said it's called mint."
"Are there any? I want to bring one back to my brother."
"My sister wants it too!"
"And I!"
Tina didn't expect that everyone would be so enthusiastic and caught off guard. The big handful of mints that Tang En grabbed her were completely divided in a blink of an eye.
"Here, this is what the Lord Lord gave me ... I, I also want to stay and eat slowly ..."
Tina wanted to cry without tears, but she saw everyone's happy smile, she sighed, and quickly let go. She discussed with everyone happily.
Everyone was talking about mints, Lord Lord, Lord Lord's kindness, Lord Lord's wise, Lord Lord's gossip ...
Of course Tang En didn't know he was being discussed by the maids, he walked out of the Lord's House all the way, and then he was dumbfounded.
He doesn't know yet where Elijah lives.
"By the way, ask Edgar."
Tang En clapped and ran to Edgar's Blacksmith.
As soon as I entered the door, I heard Brian shouting there: "You're too slow! Work hard! Otherwise, you can't finish it the other day! Human beings are really too troublesome!"
"You get the mold there and give me all the work, of course it's slow!"
Edgar was full of grievances, but he didn't dare to send a message to Brian. He suddenly saw Tang En and stunned: "Master, why are you here again? Rest assured, the task will be completed."
Tang En took a look at the semi-finished products on the ground. In just one hour, he had made more than a hundred, and estimated that the time was still sufficient, so he laughed: "I know, there is still enough time, don't be too tired."
Edgar brightened his muscles and laughed, "Thank you Lord Lord for your concern, I'm fine."
"Well, do you know where Elijah lives?"
"Ilia? That little orphan girl?"
"orphan?"
"Yeah, I don't know who her parents are. When the people in the town saw her, they were in the woods west of the town."
Edgar scratched her head. "After bringing her back to the town, because strange things always happened around her, everyone gradually alienated her over time, and her character became very lonely."
"strange things?"
"Yeah, weird light, weird whisper, and someone was injured because of this, so some people think she is an ominous incarnation, and want to expel her." With that, Edgar jumped at his heart and added in a hurry. "But it's all a thing of the past. Since the Abbots adopted her, with Elsa's company, she's a lot more active now."
"So it is ..."
Tang En pondered for a moment and asked, "Where is Elsa's house?"
Edgar stretched out his hand: "Go out and walk about 200 steps along this road, right hand side."
Tang En nodded, then turned and went out.
Elijah was an orphan, and she had been treated unfairly as a child. Her character was lonely and normal. It would be better to say that she can now be adjusted to a lively little girl by Elsa.
However, the anomalies mentioned by Edgar are probably due to Elijah's magic affinity body. The elements next to him are too rich and do not know how to manipulate and guide. Anomalies will occur. If there is any When the mage saw it, she must have taken her back as a close disciple, but unfortunately there were fewer adventurers here in Ellington, not to mention the magician, and Ilia was naturally regarded as a monster.
This poor little guy ...
Tang En shook his head and came outside Elsa's house.
"Well? Big brother !?"
Before knocking on the door, I heard Yilia's surprise, Tang En turned around and saw the cute little girl sitting in the yard with a basin of water to wash clothes.
The residents of Prendall are generally precocious, but it's too cruel to let a girl as small as Eliya do the laundry?
Tang En frowned slightly.
"Oh ... Ilia, who's here?"
There was a female voice in the room.
Ilia said crisply, "It's the elder brother-the elder brother."
"Master Lord?"
The woman was a little surprised, and then said, "I'm very sorry, Lord Lord. I'm Elsa's mother, Clara.
That's it! Because she was uncomfortable, Elijah took the initiative to help.
Tang En suddenly realized, and touched Elijah's head, the little girl was very sensible!
