Dragon, choose cultural victory to make money

Chapter 232: The Paralyzed Lord and the Tiefling Nanny
Drogo Group, headquarters.

A regular meeting is taking place in the largest conference room on the top floor.

Important figures from the Drogo Group, dragon creatures, and elf creatures were all present.

Normally there wouldn't be so many members at the regular meetings, but today was different because after the contact with the devil, there was a lot to do.

All ongoing projects should report on their progress before assigning new tasks.

Especially the two projects of spell language and magic energy machine. Once they are completed, the entire divine skeleton network and related accessories, as well as all production lines, will have to be iterated together. It is a huge project.

"The first version of the spell language has been basically completed," Saint El introduced first, "and handed it over to your illusionist to reconstruct the visual inscription workshop."

Strictly speaking, the elders of the Mages Guild are not employees of the Drogo Group, but rather they are partners, devoting themselves to noble causes in pursuit of higher magical ideals.

They are only responsible for the development of the spell language, and it is not certain whether subsequent updates will be carried out by them.

Out of respect for them and the spirit of the Internet, the spell language will be made an open source project in the future and everyone can use it for free.

More people using it means more people will improve it. Maybe in the future there will be things like Spell Language++, Spell Language#, etc.

"Flynn?" Drogo asked.

All the developers of the Visual Inscription Workshop are illusionists, so Fulin has always been the chief R&D engineer.

"The reconstruction work is expected to take another two months. After completion, priority will be given to the production of the operating system and general game engine." Fulin replied.

The universal game engine Drogo has been dreaming of this for a long time, completely decoupling game production from spellcasting ability, allowing everyone to become a game maker, so that a large number of illusionists can be liberated.

“Oh, by the way, remember to write usage documentation when refactoring.”

Documentation is the operating instruction manual. As long as you have the patience and read the documentation carefully, you can learn almost any software.

"of course I remember."

“Who wrote the document?”

"Me, who else could it be?" Fulin answered as a matter of course.

"Um, the guy who writes spell tutorials online, his name is Lori, right? Contact him." Drogo turned and instructed Elsa.

"The Inscription Workshop reconstructed Church Lori, and then he wrote the documents."

"What do you mean? Didn't I write a good enough document?"

"No, no, no, the document you wrote is too good. It is only suitable for excellent mages, but most mages are not that good, so we have to take care of this group of people."

The main purpose of the instruction document is to make people understand it. Drogo had no doubt that most people would want to understand the document written by Flynn, so a manual would be needed to accompany the document.

"Where is the magic energy machine?" Drogo asked Professor Moore.

This super black technology that converts mechanical energy into magical energy is destined to open the door to a new industrial revolution.

"The prototype has been manufactured and tested on the toy production line. We are now designing a plan for mass production, which should take another 40 to 50 days."

Professor Moore answered, flipping through his notebook.

Drogo nodded. "Dr. Fabric, how is the plan for building a magical city that we are working on with Drogo?"

Drogo's goal is simple. Once the magic energy machine is put into production, every household will be connected to magic energy, just like the power system.

This system will definitely need to undergo a lot of testing, and problems will arise during testing. It is likely that the system will be demolished and rebuilt, and rebuilt and demolished, which is not easy to implement in an already established city.

The best way is to build a brand new city from scratch and include the magic energy system in the planning, so as to experiment with a mature plan and then apply it to other cities.

It just so happens that now there is the Devil's Transit City, so it is even more necessary to build a city belonging to Drogo.

“There are several site selection options.”

Dr. Fabrice took out a map with several villages and towns highlighted on it.

Drogo's request was simple: it should be close to the North, where there was a raw material production base, making it convenient to transport the raw materials.

Compared to the north, it is further south and closer to the sea, so a port can be built and the port will not freeze in winter.

Sea transportation will sooner or later become the largest transportation channel. It is impossible to build a large commercial city without a port.

Dr. Fabrice selected the sites very carefully, and all the villages and towns he marked met this standard.

"Is there any difference between these places?" Drogo was having difficulty making a decision.

"There isn't much difference, actually," Dr. Fabrique replied. "The population is about the same, and the inhabitants are mostly humans. There are monsters nearby, but they shouldn't pose any trouble to us."

"Um, how about I just pick one at random?" Drogo thought it was a bit hasty to just pick one at random.

"If I have to choose, I don't recommend Shenshui Village."

"why?"

"This village is the poorest here. The crops grown on the nearby land do not produce good harvests, and most villagers make a living by fishing."

"Then there are good plots of land in the other villages?"

"Yes."

"Then it's Waterdeep." Drogo took out a pen and drew a circle on the edge of the North.

There is no way. It is a waste to use good land to build houses. Although the output value of agriculture is low, its importance ranks first.

I can tolerate not having access to the internet, but I would really die if I don’t have food to eat.

Waterdeep, the future largest city in the north of Sutton, the settlement with the largest number of devils and tieflings on the continent, and the forefront of technological and magical research, was chosen in this way.

The transformation of a poor fishing village.

All I can say is that things are unpredictable.

"Yuno, do you have an idea for our magic device integration plan? It's okay if you don't have one. I know it's difficult."

As the Drogo Group launches more and more magical products, the entire Drogo family bucket can fill an entire bedroom.

However, when added together, they still do not yet have the functionality of a computer.

Social networking, games, music, and some production functions, such as tuning, editing, etc., one function corresponds to a magic device.

Drogo really wanted to put them together, but the current technical means were completely up to standard, and the Drogo Group could not produce magic chips of a few nanometers.

So Yuno was given the task to see if there was any solution that was more in line with the local characteristics of Feilin.

"No," Yuno replied awkwardly, "There is absolutely no feasible solution so far. The only thing I can think of is to put a storage space in a magic device, and send out a certain magic accessory when a certain function is used."

"But that would be too expensive." Drogo stated why this plan was not feasible.

"Yes, and there aren't that many stable planes of space that can be used for storage."

"What about using an unstable plane?" Drogo asked.

He doesn't have stable ones, but he has plenty of unstable ones, which he bought in bulk from the Mage Guild.

Now it is only used to transmit magic vision signals, and there is still a huge amount of space that has not been used.

"No, it won't work. First of all, the magic device cannot store magic energy in an unstable plane. Secondly, it will be worn out and naturally damaged." Yuno pointed out the problem.

"Oh……"

Drogo leaned back in his chair, unhappy. It seemed that he could only wait until the technology tree was added bit by bit. "But, can't the magic device not store magic energy? Aren't we going to build a magic energy system and connect it when we need it?" Elsa said weakly.

Drogo and Yuno both looked at her.

"Don't look at me like that. I'm not a professional. I just said it casually. If it's not okay, then it's not okay."

"No, it's what you said that seems to make sense."

Drogo suddenly realized that a desktop computer also needs to be plugged into power, so why can't the Felin console be used if it is plugged in?

"Is it possible to power and operate at the same time?" Drogo asked Yuno.

"It's theoretically feasible, and the difference between it and the magic stone is not much."

"The magic energy produced by the magic energy machine is no different from that of the magic energy stone." Professor Moore said affirmatively.

"That's feasible," Drogo immediately showed interest. "How long will it take for an unstable plane to be damaged if stored there?"

“Usually it’s about five years.”

"That's enough. What else can you expect from a console that can last for five years? Five years is enough time for two generations of hardware to be upgraded."

Drogo was very satisfied with the result. "Yuno, you will be in charge of this project. Codename: Yali."

Drogo used the method of asking gods to name him.

"Do we have to use this code name?"

"Yali host, such a cute name, doesn't it sound like you want to buy it?"

All the living things in the conference room shook their heads.

"I don't care. This is the name anyway, Yuno. I look forward to your results."

It was a regular meeting that lasted nearly two hours, during which all the important projects currently underway were reported on.

“Nothing is missing?” Drogo asked Elsa.

"No."

"Very good, then I will say a few words."

Drogo said as he turned on the large screen at the front of the conference room and a slideshow appeared.

"A project to help tieflings return to social welfare." Fulin read out the title of the slide show word by word.

Then he covered his mouth with an expression that said, "We are professionals and we normally don't laugh," and he was about to give up.

Elsa next to her was even pinching her thigh.

If there weren't so many people in the conference room, she would definitely start laughing.

It doesn't mean that you have to give face to the boss when there are many people. It's mainly that if you laugh at the boss when there are many people, more money will be deducted, and it's not easy to get a salary increase.

"No, what's with that expression on your face? Is it hard to believe that I'm doing charity work?"

"Tell me, at what point are you going to start cheating people out of money?" Fulin said bluntly, "Are you going to sell tea this time?"

"Of course not. Besides, what's wrong with the last advertisement selling tea? Drinking some tea is good for your health."

Drogo said seriously, "Because Tieflings are a race that suffers from prejudice. If we don't provide them with help, they will have no chance of improvement."

Social prejudice will only gradually deepen until it becomes an indelible stigma, and it is difficult to change it by one's own efforts.

"Besides, due to the incident of the magic vision machine, many more tieflings have been converted, and their living conditions are not very optimistic."

Yuno nodded when he heard this. He knew that even in the Research Institute and Repin Academy, which represented progress, classes for students who were transformed into Tieflings were temporarily suspended because it was difficult to guarantee safety in school.

It's not that they suspect the Tiefling students will cause trouble, but they are worried that they will be attacked.

This kind of thing has happened quite a lot recently. When the guards patrol the streets in the early morning, they always find dead tieflings in remote corners.

Some were murdered, but more were suicides.

After the emergence of the Drogo Group and the popularity of superhero culture, it is rare to find people dead on the streets.

"So, my idea is to change the public's bad impression of tieflings through academic content and literary works, and to provide jobs for tieflings so that they can survive without committing crimes."

"But we don't have many job vacancies right now," said Aisha.

"I know, but there are production lines for the Magic Energy Machine and the Yali Host. There will definitely be a large number of vacancies by then."

Drogo's idea is to let the tieflings cooperate with the inferior demons that will arrive later. Compared with humans, tieflings are much less resistant to demons.

There are already many Tieflings in Hell. In order to avoid prejudice, they enter the "Pure Land" Hell in their hearts.

However, most of the tieflings who arrived in hell regretted their lives. As for the living conditions in hell, although there was no prejudice, there was no place better than the mainland.

"Besides, we are not going to accept all the tieflings. We are just setting an example."

There are people learning everything the Zhuoge Group does now, including production methods, organizational structure, and recruitment processes. No matter whether it is right or not, they just learn it first.

There must be a reason why he can make so much money.

"In addition to the production line, the construction work in Waterdeep will also require a large number of workers. There will be many demons there in the future anyway, so why not just recruit the tiefling refugees to do the work?"

Elsa nodded and took note of Drogo's request.

"Of course, we can't just provide jobs. Most tieflings have no choice but to work in the gray industry, but there are also many who are breaking the law and committing crimes. We can't correct them. We must strike hard against them.

"After providing jobs for the tieflings, we will offer a bounty at the Adventurer's Guild. If they still insist on doing bad things, you will get money if you catch them."

Originally Drogo thought of just killing him, but after careful consideration he decided that this was not a good idea, as in that case someone should borrow the tiefling's head and use it.

The Adventurer's Guild is also a mixed bag.

"As for the academic and cultural aspects, we need scholars to conduct research and prove that tieflings are not inherently evil."

Drogo believed that if the devils, who were often considered to be synonymous with evil, were not that evil, then there was no reason why the tieflings, who only inherited half of the bloodline, would be hopeless from birth.

"Then, Grandpa Carina, I need the Drama Guild to create a series of works to gradually introduce tiefling characters. Don't be too radical. Write them as both good and evil at the beginning. Once the audience accepts and adapts to them, then gradually introduce positive characters."

"Okay." Grandpa Carina responded.

He actually didn't have much prejudice against tieflings because he had hardly come into contact with many of them. To be more precise, he had hardly come into contact with rich people.

"Sir Godot." Drogo suddenly mentioned Godot who was in a daze in the corner.

"Yes."

"How's the show going now?"

"It has resumed broadcasting, and the next few episodes have already started recording."

"Where is your assistant?" Drogo noticed that the personal assistant who had always been with Sir Godot was not there.

"I was injured before and I'm still recovering."

"It just so happens that I have a script here about finding you a new life assistant. Are you interested?"

Drogo said mysteriously.
