Chapter 16: Savage Growth
It's not magical!
Zhang Tong wanted to shout this.
But the old mage said confidently, "Although there is no such thing as a philosopher's stone on earth. But we have the national grid! This is a continuous supply of energy, so since we have the national grid, why should we go to the trouble of finding the Philosopher's Stone, or make the so-called energy crystal ourselves. That will increase the production cost of the magic circle and prevent it from entering thousands of households. ”
"In this case, our magician has actually studied it for a long time. The greatest achievement of the Wizards' Federation is the creation of an energy transfer circle that directly supplies electricity to the magic array. So in fact, in addition to the magic array of constant temperature and humidity, we also have a magic array for the restaurant industry. ”
The old mage, who looked like Dumbledore, pulled out a stack of pamphlets from the Hongxing Erke backpack behind him: "Boss, look. We also have the Furnace Magic Circle. The fire can be adjusted, only heat is used without open flames, and the working principle of the induction cooker is different, which is closer to the real stove. But there is no open flame, so it is safer. ”
"There is also this smoke adsorption magic array, opening a restaurant, the most important thing is the problem of oil smoke treatment. Traditional restaurant fumes are slapped directly into the sewer pipe. Because it is too greasy, if the sewer pipe is not drained well, it is easy to cause blockage and backwater, etc. Our kind of magic array is great, it can directly recover the oil smoke, as long as this magic circle is built on the ceiling, it can automatically absorb the oil smoke. Moreover, it can automatically separate the oil fume, and finally directly clean out the fuel consumption. It can be handed over to the refinery recovery station for oil refining and becoming industrial oil. "The old mage is very knowledgeable.
He knows that the main reason why the gutter oil industry is getting smaller and smaller is because the price of oil is now high, and the cost of recycling waste oil into industrial oil in restaurants has become lower. Therefore, as long as the city has opened a waste oil recycling and processing station, there will be less and less market for waste oil. After all, turning into industrial oil is more profitable than turning into gutter oil, and it is still legal.
"On top of that, we, the United Society of Wizards, are also working on a new ordering system. Boss: If you want to eat in some big restaurants in Huaihai, you will know that many restaurants have launched a self-service à la carte system. Put a QR code on the table, or the waiter gives a pad and let the customers order themselves. We are currently working on a practical magic circle to pass the dishes a la carte. ”
"Establish a short-distance conveyor array between the kitchen and the table, so that the chef can automatically transfer the dish to the customer's table as long as it is placed in the conveyor array, which can effectively reduce the workload of waiters. "The old mage has diligently promoted the products of their Wizards' Guild.
"And they're all powered by electricity. There is no need to worry about energy supply. As long as the national grid does not go down, our magic array can be used forever! Of course, you need to pay your electricity bill on time. ”
After listening to the old master's words, Zhang Tong was actually a little moved.
But his intellect told him that he still had a few questions to ask: "Wait, old mage. Although what you say is very tempting. But there's a small problem. If all of your magic circles are electric, why don't I use appliances like air conditioners and induction cookers?"
"Because those things are not as useful as the magic array!" said the old mage as a matter of course, "There is such a thing as an air conditioner, although it can regulate the temperature." But in a space, some places are too cold and some are too hot. The temperature it provides to the space is not uniform. Some people are freezing cold, but others feel hot. And as long as our magic array is built, it can ensure that the temperature is the same in the space of a modern 100-square-meter house. From left to right, the maximum temperature difference from top to bottom will not exceed 0.5 degrees. ”
"Hmm. "It's kind of tempting. If the air conditioner is a group of people together, it is not easy to adjust many times, and it will indeed appear in the same situation as the old master said.
"And we can adjust the size of the magic circle on a more user-like scale. The largest single magic array can regulate the air temperature and humidity within 10,000 square meters. There are even bigger ones, and we can also provide air quality purification arrays for the entire mall. There are also various compound magic arrays, which provide lighting and so on. ”
"Boss, you don't know. The days when our magicians come back to Earth are hard!" The old mage said as he suddenly burst into tears: "In the other world, mages are nobles, and many things are only known to mages. All kinds of handy magic and offensive magic. And after returning to the earth, what do we mages do? Fighting? The destructive power is not as good as that of the Dongfeng militia Topol, not to mention these three, it is a shot of the main battle tank, and it is also a super fireball strength. ”
"There are many more weapons, and they don't have to be inferior to the mage's magic in terms of destructive power. And the magician still has d time to rub a fireball. "The old mage is not wrong about that.
"And then all kinds of convenience magic, there are already a lot of convenience tools in modern society. You said air conditioning, but also washing machines, dishwashers, blenders, sweepers, etc. Now even stir-fry has an automatic stir-fry machine. In addition, in many cities outside, we don't have the opportunity to practice magic for magicians. So, we're having a hard time. ”
"The Wizards' Federation unites magicians in order to create some employment opportunities for magicians. These are our primary products, and we will research more and better products to give back to the society in the future. ”
The old mage said sincerely: "Boss, you seem to be a returnee too." For the sake of fellow returnees, let's give us a hand! Many mages can't open the pot in their homes!"
"Then how much does your magic array cost?" Zhang Tong was a little tempted.
"Your shop. As soon as the old mage saw that the business had come to the door, he immediately began to calculate the size of Zhang Tong's shop. Sixty square meters, well, if you calculate the cost of materials and labor, as well as profits and the subsequent three-year warranty.
"Ten thousand. The old mage quoted a price that he didn't think was high.
"It's so expensive!" Xiao Xiao said: "This store can ensure cooling and heating by buying two or three horsepower air conditioners, and two three-horse air conditioners are only 10,000 yuan if they are expensive, and they may be cheaper." Your magic array costs thirteen thousand!"
"The little girl is different. Things are different, our magic array won't get air conditioning sickness. And in summer, the door can be opened directly, because the temperature within the range is directly controlled, and there is no air conditioner or anything. In this way, you can open the windows and open the door for ventilation, and the air quality is much better than that of the air conditioner!" the old master introduced very seriously.
Zhang Tong looked at his small shop, and then suddenly thought of something about the Jiang family's hot pot restaurant.
"Old mage, I suddenly had an idea. ”
You say. ”
"I'm thinking about opening a magic-themed hot pot restaurant. ”
"Huh?"
"Come, I'll show you. From here to here, and this second floor is my storefront. A total of 450 square meters. The decoration has not been decided yet, but it has been decided to look at the hot pot restaurant. I'm thinking that what you're saying is interesting, what would you like if you could help me create a magic-themed hot pot restaurant? ”
"Yes, yes!" the old mage found out that it was a big business: "In this case, we can get a good price!"
"No, you probably don't understand what I mean. It's not just a matter of whether you're on a good offer or not. I want to build a magic-themed hot pot restaurant, and it just so happens that my hot pot restaurant is from Shuangqing, a 3D magical three-dimensional city. We have many stores in Shuangqing, and this is our first branch in the Greater Huaihai area. I believe this is the first, but not the last. And we will invest a lot of publicity, including on self-media and various soft waterlogs. And my own store is also the No. 1 Internet celebrity store in Huaihai. Therefore, it has a very large-scale publicity effect. ”
The old mage was a little reminiscing: "You mean ......"
"I mean collaboration. Zhang Tong showed a sincere smile.
The corners of the old mage's mouth trembled slightly.
The old mage was gone, refreshed when he walked in, and his legs trembled slightly when he walked out. I don't know if this collaboration is good or bad, but I can always give it a try, right? What the boss said made sense. Thinking that there are hundreds of fellow mages in the federation who are unemployed, the old mage has a strong spirit, and he must be refreshed!
The old mage had just walked on the front foot, and on the back foot, a man wearing a gorgeous Taoist robe, and his whole body was shining with golden light, just like the big guy of the krypton gold road vip13 level boss in the Xianxia online game, and walked in: "Hello boss, I am from the Returnee Immortal Cultivation Federation, and our association has some products ......"
The ability of returnees has been suppressed for too long, and many people are depressed under the one-size-fits-all policy. But now that they have entered the loose Hive City, they have instantly burst out with strong vitality and begun a savage and crazy growth.
