Due to the great resistance of the wand-making machine, the machine that used the soul power stored in the spirit coins to engrave the hell runes on items was named the "Shani Spirit Engraving Machine" by Shani. Fei Qi thought about it, this name secretly coincided with "zero technology", so he praised Xia Ni in a row, and the sycophants were earth-shattering. Soon Shani couldn't stand it anymore and told Feige to shut up.

In Feige's opinion, it is impossible to say that the idea of "Shani Engraving Machine" is very important. Using the energy of the spirit coin and the caster's active ability to print spell runes, at first glance, it looks like the steam coming out of a kettle always flying upwards after it is boiled, which is indeed unremarkable, but it contains great power.

The real industrial revolution always begins with the transformation of the factors that drive industrial development. It's energy, it's a tool of production, it's a laborer. The Shani Spirit Engraver is one such thing, using soul power as an energy source, changing the production tools of engraved runes, and removing the biggest constraints on the original creators of magical items. "Shani, this is the most important milestone of the first year of the Age of Magic. In the future, it will be said that Fitch St. Hall laid the foundation of the empire with his powerful magical power, and the Shani Engraving Machine became the pillar on top of the foundation, and together they started the era of magic. ”

"Stop! Why have you had new words for more than half an hour?" Xia Ni waved her hand weakly: "If you have nothing to do, I will paralyze you directly, at least you can get a trace of peace." ”

"Yes, you're right, don't move your mouth. Fei Qi smiled: "I'll start working now, and I'll make the spirit engraving machine while I'm in hell." ”

It was not until I got started that I realized that the imagination in my head is easy, but the actual operation is complicated. The wand, elongated in the shape of a cone, requires a spinning motion to carve on it, and this alone drains Feige's mental power.

Even if this obstacle is removed, there is still the problem of miniaturization of runes. If you can enter the "letterpress printing" in one step, then there is no need to use engraving, but the shrinking rune seals can be solved in advance by exquisite hand, but how can they be fixed on the opposite side of the conical material?

Interlaced like a mountain, he cracks the program and system is his job, and the production of magic items is also a master, and the flow chart is barely qualified to design the process, but how to arrange the production line and how the machine tool should be manufactured is another field. What's more, this is likely to turn into a multi-axis machine.

"No, you have to break your head and bleed like this. Feige stopped digging and decided to start over and see if there was another solution.

This time, Feige was in a longer period of thought and experimentation than before. He thought hard for a moment, then summoned the tools to make them. I tried and thought and tried again and again, and the cycle continued, and failed again and again but never produced useful results. He might have to continue with the devil's stamina, but Shani couldn't hold it anymore, and she finally — for the first time — stopped Feige.

"I'm so hungry, can you send me back first. You write down your ideas on a piece of paper and roll them back first, arrange things on the Empire side first, and then come back and continue experimenting. ”

"Hmm. Feige apologized to Shani and immediately led her towards the teleportation room. But on the way, Feiqi suddenly said "Huh?", looked at Xia Ni with two eyes, and then suddenly let out a strong "Hmm!"

Shani hurriedly asked what was wrong, but Feige just laughed without explaining. He didn't record the process of the experiment, but simply split the body of the contract demon, and then returned to the palace with a relaxed mood. In the next two days, Fei Qi didn't mention the matter of Shani's spirit carving machine at all, and concentrated on handling the daily affairs of the empire, supervising the construction of a special area for the workshop outside the city of Tawu Harbor. The only thing that has something to do with the "Xia Ni Spirit Engraving Machine" is that he asks for a large enough area in the special area of the workshop to be used for the construction of the "Royal Magic Carving Workshop".

Through careful observation, Shani was sure that Feige had come up with a solution, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy. She was curious about what this plan was, and he was sure that it would succeed without even experimenting. After a few more days, Feige declared herself to be in a magical retreat for a day or two, and she knew the answer was coming.

The solution is in that sentence, "write it down on a paper roll", it's as simple as that. Magic runes recorded on the scrolls do not affect their effectiveness, so the runes can withstand a certain amount of curl. When the rune itself is small enough, then the curl it can withstand is relatively larger. So as long as a rune array is prefabricated on a flat surface that is tough enough to be machined, and then rolled on a wand, plus a step to connect the two closely, then the cone becomes a flat print, which is a whole order of magnitude simpler.

This method can be used not only on wands, but also on other surfaces. Ever since Fei Qi invented the three-dimensional rune combination in the spatial direction, his mind was full of "three-dimensional rune arrays are more advanced and can carry more complex rune arrays". Theory is fine, but when it comes to the specific thing of a toy wand, the theory is a bit out of reality. The toy wand doesn't need a complex rune array, it doesn't need to be "advanced", but "basic". Flat runes plus curls are perfectly sufficient.

There will definitely be times when the process will need to be improved in the future, and the accumulation of time will sooner or later solve the processing problem - now for Feige, it is necessary to find a suitable material for the "curl" reel.

The paper was too strong, the leather wasn't stable enough, and most of the leather that could write rune arrays came from sorceral creatures, and breeding them was always a challenge. Feige shifted his gaze to the metal material, gold was malleable enough, and the affinity for mana (especially lightning) was good, but it was too expensive. Mithril is actually the best option, but it is more expensive than gold......

"If you really can't do it, it's silver, the spell performance is very good, and the price is barely affordable. Fitch scratched his head and suddenly thought of aluminum. On the earth, aluminum alloy is very cheap and can be used in many processing fields, but in the Yongli continent the situation is completely reversed. Most of the aluminum in the Yongli Continent was inadvertently created by the priest of the Goddess of Truth and Thunder when casting spells, and many of them were enshrined as proof of the power of powerful divine magic.

"Didn't Qianjing's White Flag grocery store say that as long as the resources with a similar level of technology can be sold? "I just don't know how friendly this thing is with its spells. Hmm, how can the resources on this list be arranged in such order?"

Any list is a manifestation of order, and there is always a pattern and order in it—unless it is deliberately broken up. This list from the White Flag grocery store starts with industrial clay and goes all the way up to biocomposite polymer reinforced fibers, which is roughly a row from cheap to expensive. Most of the things in it were as Fitch expected, but there were three things that stood out in the ordinary.

The first is gold, which is in a very low position, even according to its processing difficulty and reserves, it is too expensive, far beyond its important role in processing and manufacturing. Aside from the fact that the devil of hell also loves gold, making it the only hard currency other than spirit coins, Feige can't think of an explanation at all.

The second is Mithril, which is followed by silver on this list, which means that their prices are extremely close. And the third strange place is where the Adamantite is located, not far from Mithril, not far from the middle of the table. The price position of Mithril and Adamantite made Feige think about it, and a bold plan slowly took shape in his mind.

So, he chose Mithril as a material and used the engraving and curling method to make a toy wand. Having paid enough favor to Hell, he turned the wand into a permanently valid product and brought it back to the Eternal Continent.

"Mithril?" Charney's eyes widened at the sight of the wand, and then she shook her head frantically, "You use such an expensive thing to make a toy for fireworks, and you want to make money with it?"

"You just say it's pretty, right?"

"Of course it's beautiful!" Mithril has taken the appearance of the whole wand up a notch, but ......," said Shani, "I've used up all the Mithril I've been wearing in my sleeve for more than a hundred years, where are you going to find Mithril again?"

"This requires you to summon the Qian Mirror. Feige said with a smile.

Xia Ni sighed, took out the business card of the white flag grocery store, and pressed the white flag logo position on it three times. This was given to her by Qian Jing during the last meeting, and she was only allowed to use it, and the devil's call to the White Flag grocery store ignored it. After pressing it three times, the white flag, which had been stationary, began to flutter slightly, indicating that the grocery store employees were on their way.

An hour and a half later, far longer than the Styx voyage, Qian Mirror descended from the sky, holding a white domain flag, and arrived at the Iron Throne Hall under the watchful eye of the guards. He first paid homage to the towering throne, and then consciously saluted Queen Shani, who was sitting next to him.

"Let my plenipotentiary, Fitch St. Hall, speak to you. Xia Ni hooked her finger at Fei Qi, and His Majesty the Emperor obediently ran down and sat down on the steps at Xia Ni's feet. Fei Qi expressed his understanding and support for this act of covering his ears and stealing the bell, but Qian Jing was helpless. If you want not to violate the rules of the white flag, you can only go around like this, and on the other hand, as long as you go around and around without violating the rules of the white flag, then Qian Jing must also accept it, and he has no right to refuse for the white flag grocery store.

"I need a lot of materials to develop the industry, let's list the prices of these resources. Feiqi handed a list to Xia Ni, who skimmed through it and then handed it to Qian Jing. This is also the rule: the devil can speak on his behalf, but the matter must not be deceived by the main object, that is, Xia Ni. Fei Qi strictly followed the rules, so even if he saw Qian Jing's embarrassed expression, he himself had to look serious and not show the slightest smugness.

"Write the real price and don't try to lie to me. Feige snorted and pointed to his head, "I remember very well what the world was like before. ”

"The price across the world is not what you remember. Qian Jing sighed and took out the pen. "What are you going to pay with, I can use it as a standard to write the price. ”

"Gold or spirit coins. Fei Qi said: "The Yongli Continent is too small, and it is easier to measure by the standards of hell." ”

"Tsk, it's a cunning way indeed. However, the price of the spirit coin recently, uh...... "Qian Jing suddenly remembered that Fei Qi had already told him about the collapse of the spirit coin, and it was he who strongly denied the speculative project, which made Fei Qi lose huge profits in vain. "Gold is still very stable, I use it as a standard, and the spirit coin can only be used as a reference for real-time prices. ”

"Why is gold so stable, is it because the devil uses it?"

"Yes. The devil seduces souls with gold, which makes gold associated with the soul and becomes a measure of 'depravity' and 'change in the soul'. Qian Jing explained while marking the price: "And the performance of gold is stable, especially in the face of spells. ”

"Got it, the rest is either because of the function, or because of the quantity, or because of the stability. ”

"You're too smart. Qian Jing reluctantly complimented, and then finished writing the price list. Feige took it and looked at it, and slowly shook his head: "I'll give you another chance, write more accurately." I want your sale price, not what they're worth with me. ”

"How much it's worth to you is its price. Qian Jing smiled, but Feige could see that he was struggling.

"Although I can't go to Earth, there are quite a few people on Earth who want to do business with the devil. As a Hell Lord, I can use such channels. But as a person who came out there, I didn't want the devil to cause trouble. Feige decided to give Qian Jing a fatal blow: "Adamantite, Mithril, Aluminum!"

"You ......" Qian Jing stared at Fei Qi for a long time, and then said, "The price of the resource is not set by me, but the conclusion reached by the White Flag Grocery Store after scanning your Yongli Continent. It's true that the price I'm giving you is different from what the grocery store calculates, but it's also to avoid huge upheaval and protect your price system. ”

"If you can protect the Yongli Continent from being destroyed, then it doesn't hurt that the entire price system is given to you. But......" Feige shook his head, "If you can't protect it, then don't protect it for me." ”

"I could have left you in this business at all, as long as I don't think the profit and value in it is so appropriate. ”

"Don't use this method to put pressure, no matter how great your influence is, can you compare to the devil on earth? I haven't heard of you before, but I've heard a lot about the devil and the devil's spokesman, and I believe it's not groundless. When it comes to extreme pressure, the devil seems to have a bigger limit than you. Fei Qi now put down the ugly words, then turned around a little, and said: "Seeking common ground while reserving differences, the matter of price is just a business, to put it bluntly. You give a real price, I give you a real profit. And, I also have things that are perfect for selling on Earth. It's a project that's good for both of us. ”

He took out his toy wand, gestured it to Qian Jing, and then handed it to him through Xia Ni's hand. Qian Jing also flicked his wand, releasing fluorescent balls and small fireworks, and then flipped over and over to check.

"This is the archetype, with elemental gems. The wand that is really going to be sold is with batteries, and I don't have batteries here. ”

"Funny, really funny. Qian Jing stared at the wand for a while, put it down a little reluctantly, then lifted the pen, made a few hard strokes on the price list, and then bit his tongue to fill in the new price on it.

Feige knew it was almost done.
