Chapter 384 Poor thinking

Cross-border trade on the same planet often leads to disputes and even wars, so cross-planet and cross-world trade is more likely to have problems. A few decades of development is enough to create a generational gap of crushing levels, and different technological systems, separated and then developed separately – or ahead – for hundreds or thousands of years, will create an advantage that is difficult to comprehend similar miracles.

If we turn a blind eye to this difference in technology and productivity, and if there are no restrictions on trade across the world, then the result of the unlimited pursuit of profit is the destruction of all but one victor in the economy and production system. At this time, everyone looks at each other, the separation of technological systems makes it impossible for anyone to guarantee that they will win, and the huge span of space and time in the multiverse cannot guarantee that the current victory is the ultimate victory, so a common ground is formed. During a brief period of equilibrium of mutual deterrence, cross-world trade rules were created on the basis of common ground.

"Resources and general everyday consumer goods can, but all fresh and productive tools can't be sold to the low-tech world. Technical, humanistic, artistic, religious, belief, and worldview products and media are also subject to the embargo. Items of technical level and low level may be sold, but not dumped. That is, he can sell me bread, but not wheat seeds, clothes, but not looms, swords and crossbows, but not firearms. Fei Qi read and remembered it, treating it as if it were a contract, using the methods and experience of the contract demon to find loopholes in it.

There are very few things that the White Flag Grocery Store buys, or there are few products that can be taken out of the Yongli Continent. Fei Qi thought carefully about it in combination with his own memory, indeed, what the Yongli Continent could produce at present would be crushed by the earth in terms of quality and quantity, not to mention that the varieties were not complete. But what if you take into account things that haven't been produced yet?

"Toys," Feige looked at the two lists, and found a possible direction. "Xia Ni, you see, he sells toys, which refers to safe and harmless entertainment products that children aged six and under can handle, excluding the category of knowledge and worldview education. This category is very interesting, and it is perfectly possible to manipulate it and produce toys to sell to them. ”

"It's good to sell toys, it's a serious business, but what exactly are you selling?"

"The first must be safe, the second must be fun, and the third must be ...... It's very important that it's not easy to be copied, and I'm very aware of the ability to crack, learn, and copy that world (which Feige himself did), and even they can develop it further, even better than the original. The fourth is the consideration of cost and profit. Feige pondered for a moment, then snapped his fingers, "I have a plan!"

He bent down, placed his palms on the ground, then spread his wings and released an evil aura, using the properties of the seven layers of hell to exchange for items, and a slender branch appeared in the palm of his hand. Using his sharp nails as a carving knife, he expertly worked on the branches and engraved the magic runes on them. It took about half an hour for a wooden wand to be ready.

The wand was thirty centimeters long, with no sharp or sharp parts on its surface, and the thousands of runes used were densely arranged, just enough to prevent slipping when held between the fingers. Feige waved his wand slightly, drew a circle in the air and pointed forward, shooting out a small orange light from the tip of the wand, staggering and advancing three meters away, and exploded like a miniature firework in the sound of "whoosh~~~!" More than a dozen ribbons of colored light like chrysanthemum filaments bloomed and then drooped and fluttered, quickly disappearing. Xia Ni watched intently, still waiting for the next change, only to find that it was all there was to it.

"Toys. Fitch gave the wand to Shane in those two words to sum up its function. Xia Ni did the same, drawing a circle and pointing forward, and the wand would shoot out a fluorescent ball that was neither bright nor hot, powerless and non-threatening, and exploded with the sound of "whoosh~~pop!", the only feature is that each time it explodes, the color combination of the light strip is different.

"This ...... What's the fun about that?" Shani said, but she took the trouble to fire more than thirty fluorophores before returning the wand to Feige. She noticed the smile on Feiqi's face, and felt embarrassed, and squirmed to find a new excuse: "Looking at fluorescent balls, I get annoyed quickly." Isn't there such a thing over there?"

"Without it, it's going to be crazy, and there will be a lot of kids with this wand and playing with each other. Fei Qi thought about it and snapped his fingers again: "What's missing from selling like this......"

He looked at the relatively thick bottom of his wand and used his spell to dig out a groove. "Keep the battery here - it's a man-made version of the elemental gem in our magic gun, which can only provide a little lightning energy. A small electric light is attached to the wand, which is forced to light up when in use, so that it can explain how the emitted fluorescent balls are powered by it. ”

"Aren't all wands powered by soul power?"

Feiqi nodded: "That's right. However, the people of Earth do not understand magic, they are more familiar with the application of electricity - this design is a necessary cover-up. Shani, they can do more with electricity than you can imagine, and some of them can't even compare to my magic. ”

"Sounds like their world is also protected by the Goddess of Truth and Thunder!" "Shani always had a way of understanding Feiqi's words.

There really isn't a Truth Thunder Goddess on Earth, so won't that affect the wand's effectiveness? Feige looked at the toy wand again, and felt that it still had room for improvement. Magic runes work best in the Yongli Continent, and when they reach Hell, their power will be reduced a little, but the function can still be achieved. But the earth is another environment, can magic runes still be used?

If you want to guarantee results, then Hell Runes are a more secure option than Magic Runes. Otherwise, he couldn't be sure that the earth world and hell were indeed a little connected, otherwise Qian Jing wouldn't be able to do the business of hell. Well, it's true that the runes need to be changed, but that's not the whole improvement.

There is still a risk in using the power of the soul, and it is a major safety accident to faint suddenly when encountering Rogers' physique. Through the School of Magic's constant knowledge of Rogers, Feige does have a way to prevent stunning, but this requires a large number of rune circles to further ensure safety, which will seriously affect the cost, and is at odds with the need for miniaturization. Feige decides to think differently, he puts himself in the shoes of the earthlings, and then cracks the wand to see if there is a way to localize it.

It's a hack he's never used before: hacking something he knows best. "If this rune could be powered by electricity, not a soul...... Not a soul ......"

He was lost in thought, thinking "hard" all over his body. The spells of magic, the runes of hell, and the lightning magic spells of the goddess of truth and thunder all converged at this moment, constantly moving closer to the earth's electrical industry. Think of batteries as elemental gems, drawing energy, supplying it, and converting it into power to drive runes.

The spell that shoots out the phosphor ball doesn't just require electricity - in magical terms, it's the Seven Elemental Gems - this one is sufficient. It is a mixed application of the elements of fire, air, and earth. The soul has the power to change the world and is the best provider of this hybrid energy, which cannot be done by batteries alone. Installing Fire and Earth Elemental Gems in Advance Increases the Cost Again, and Maintains It Will Be Cumbersome.

The design of any product is produced in the process of continuous grinding and trade-offs, and the magic wand is no exception. Adding elemental gems is a lazy way, it is better to directly stuff the spirit coin into the wand and extract the soul power of the spirit coin, which is guaranteed to be "electrified" for 10,000 years.

He looked at the wand over again, and a thousand thoughts turned in his mind, and suddenly a thought came to him: Is there a material that can provide energy similar to the fire element and the earth element, and can be used as the basic material of the wand?

After throwing away the wood, the "composite, alloy, alchemy paint......" opened up his mind. Toys are consumables, and they will quickly break down when children play around. A real wand should be considered to be valid for a long time, ten years is just the beginning, if it is given to the elf, it will not be able to take out the wand without a hundred years of validity. But this is not a "magic wand", but a "toy", and a one-year life span will give the bear child enough face.

"It's not for nothing that you want to be long-lasting, use elemental gems, make collector's editions, commemorative editions, special editions, and then charge more. "It's the devil in Feige's head, the devil is the first merchant in the multiverse. "Using flint powder as the main material, alchemy transformation, plus the cooperation of some hell runes...... Well, you still have to add some elemental gems to it, and it is also in a powder state, and you only need a little bit of it. That's right, that's enough to simulate the fire and earth elements, and flint is flint......"

He designs and experiments at the same time. The best thing about the seventh layer of Hell is that it is convenient to do experiments, as long as the Hell is good enough, you can summon all kinds of materials. The amount of flint is large and cheap, and it is almost as much as you want. The alchemy material is a bit more complicated, but Feige knows how to prepare it, so it's not difficult. After many experiments, he found that the most suitable method was to use ceramic as the base and then connect the wooden rods to it. This is similar to the concept of an ivory cane, where the part that touches the hand is one material, and the one that sticks out is another. The composite stone feels rounded to the touch, and the battery trough that is not easy to deform can be dug out. The wood part is easier to carve hell runes, which greatly saves the labor cost of processing and manufacturing.

In this way, the 1.0 version of the toy light dance wand is finalized, and all that remains is to calculate the cost and then set a reasonable price. Feige simply summoned a scroll and began to write all the materials and crafting steps on it.

"The flint and gypsum are ground and mixed in proportion to weight, the clay and other ingredients are pressed, molded and then calcined. Wood also needs to be machined and cut, but only the runes and the parts connected to the ceramics need to be determined, and the rest of the natural development ...... "From the design function to the design process, this is the most important step before entering actual production." "After the two sides are nested, they must be clamped and pressed with a piece of iron, so that the two parts of the rune array can be connected. Fortunately, after the soul is not needed, the runes are reduced by sixty percent, which saves a lot of trouble. Is it okay to just press the Hell Rune on the wand?"

At the time of the experiment, Feige could do it by hand, but he had to think about how to make it in a large-scale factory. Engrave runes on objects is a skill that every magic user must master, and the Spell Scroll is based on this skill, but this method of relying on human power is not destined to be effective. The magic item crafting techniques that Feige learned from the fire dwarves and other mages have improved through repeated practice, and he can barely be considered a "master". He can't ask every maker to be a master and then still make toy wands for him.

"No, no, no, relying on human hands, one by one, this is too slow, and there is no benefit at all. Consuming the mage's own mana to engrave runes will not take long to cause a headache. And this kind of manual craftsmanship is also a bottomless pit in quality control...... "Feige stopped his movements again and re-entered the state of thought. The market generates demand, and demand forces reform, which is essentially "thinking about change when you are poor".

Xia Ni watched Feiqi who was contemplating from the sidelines, and even though he was now a deep purgatory, he still had a strong charm that attracted her deeply. She also watched intently as Feige was busy over there, guessing his thoughts, trying to keep up with his train of thought. The continuous efforts made her can't help but say at this time: "How about using spirit coins at this time?"

Feige slapped his palm, rushed over and hugged Xia Ni, and kissed him hard. "You're so clever! How did you come up with this brilliant idea? I'm sure I could have come up with it, but this time it's slower than yours. Shani, you're amazing!"

"I also thought of it suddenly, don't praise me so much. ”

"I should praise you, because of your words, the face of the entire magic manufacturing industry will change. Feige was so excited that his mind was completely open, and he connected the creation of magical objects to the industrial manufacturing he had known in his previous life at some point.

"The mana consumed by a mage is essentially an application of soul power. Relying only on one's own mana and soul power, this is the level of the craftsman, and using spirit coins, this is the practice of the factory level. The process of changing the runes that represent the rules from patterns to spells that can withstand mana is called enchantment, and the soul power in the spirit coin can also be enchanted under the guidance of a specific rune array......"

Thinking of this, Fei Qi had already completed the corresponding rune array in his mind. The difference between handicraft and industry is the use of large-scale machines, where a large number of repetitive tasks are given to a particular machine, and the process of manufacturing is done by the human being through the machine rather than by fingers and physical strength. The magic rune array has also changed from serving "products" to serving "manufacturing tools". The importance of this level of leapfrogging cannot be overstated. Shani couldn't understand it yet, but Feige definitely knew it.

Soon, he completed the design of the entire "Spirit Coin - Enchantment" rune array. "Haha, as I thought, you can't complete the enchantment with spirit coins alone, you have to be involved in it. That's right! My theory has stood the test!"

If Spirit Coins, Rune Arrays, and Machines can create magical items, then the "Soul Change World" will be impacted. Spirit coins are just a thing that stores soul energy, without the slightest initiative. For the Devil, Spirit Coins are things like sugar and Snickers, which can provide energy consumed and can be used to advance (transform), but cannot be used to create invokers and bad demons.

The devil often says, "Spirit coins are dead, but people are alive," referring to this truth. Energy and the will and ability to change the world are two different things, and it is necessary for someone who knows magic to manipulate the machine in order to complete the enchantment. "This time, even if you still need people, you won't consume mana! The manipulator is just a medium, just a catalyst, and the consumption is borne by spirit coins! Hahaha, this can be mass-produced! Xia Ni, this idea of yours is revolutionary, subversive, and foundational! This wand-making device should be named after you! It's called Xia Ni Wand Making Machine!"

"If you dare to call that name, I'll kill you!" "Ignoring the strength of the Deep Hell Purgatory, Xia Ni jumped up and grabbed Feiqi's neck. Feige coughed vigorously, and barely managed to squeeze out a sentence: "Uh...... Let go...... I'll just give you a name......"
