Chapter 6: The Economics of the Ideal Township
Charlie didn't see the shiny gold coin, which means that the war of public opinion will not stop.
Last week, the goblins splashed ink with their pens.
It seems to have used up all the brain cells in their cerebellum.
Or, they poured all the dirty water they could think of on the Wizards' Guild.
Otherwise, those who would not be angry, civilians who had only read the newspaper for a week, ran to set fire to the association overnight.
Charlie signed his name on the documents sent by the city officials.
While listening to Harpy and his subordinates, chattering and complaining to her.
To sum it up, it is probably 'baldness', 'inspiration is exhausted', 'dirty water is spilled'.
It is conceivable that these 'little cuties' have blackened the magicians into virtues.
Charlie put down the quill, leaned back in the comfortable seat, picked up the mug she had conjured, and took a sip of sweet tea.
This sweet and sour black tea developed by Anne is not bad.
"So, you think the Friday newspaper didn't write it?"
The goblins nodded frantically.
Charlie put down his delicate teacup and stood up from his seat.
There is a 'small whiteboard' in the study.
Charlie picked up the charcoal strip placed next to the whiteboard and began to 'teach' the goblins.
"I'll teach you again."
The little black dragon on her shoulder opened its mouth slightly.
He wanted to speak, but held back.
The goblins are now very 'scary', please don't increase their 'danger level'!
However, Charlie's small class has already begun.
"First of all, it is wrong for you to have this kind of thinking that you are going to the limit!"
"People...... Ahem, what are the advantages of the intelligent race? ”
A goblin hesitantly raised his hand and replied tentatively, "...... Wisdom? ”
"Wrong. It's the ability to push your limits! ”
The goblins suddenly realized, 'Dried this bowl of poisonous chicken soup,' and recorded it in unison.
The corners of the black dragon's mouth twitched slightly.
They are already against the sky enough, how do they want to break through?
Now a large number of legends on the mainland, led by the legendary thief Koroy, are said to have suffered a cerebral hemorrhage when they see the green skin.
There is no why.
In their words, 'Green skin is original sin'!
The black dragon's claws raised silently, and slowly covered his eyes.
He didn't dare to think about it anymore......
"So, this matter is easy to solve." "First of all, you have to go and blend in with the people. ”
"Uh, what are you going to do?" A goblin asked inexplicably.
Charlie taught them at the beginning: keep an eye on the big guys, and the big guys will be paid attention to, and some people will want to know their dynamics!
Clearly, the new narrative is in conflict with previous teaching.
Charlie wrote the word 'big shot' in charcoal strips.
"Obviously, it's the big guys who have 'traffic', and it's the people who want to follow them and want to know what they're talking about.
So, why do they want to know about the big guys? ”
A goblin raised his hand, "For, for bragging to people when I go to the tavern at night." ”
"Yes, because only big people have topicality."
Charlie drew an arrow with a black charcoal strip after 'The Big Man'.
The arrow is followed by 'Little People'.
"What are the main sources of your newspaper subscriptions?
It's these little people.
Why do they buy your newspapers?
In order to talk to people about the mountains.
To satisfy the vanity of the heart.
So, what would they say in a bar?
He reads the newspapers, but don't the people who listen to his bragabout not read them?
Everyone looks, I also have long eyes, why listen to your nonsense?
Because they also have to add their own opinions, opinions. ”
The goblins are dumbfounded.
Charlie drew an arrow after the little figure and wrote 'Goblin'.
"So, go back to the 'multitude.' Record what they say at night. ”
"Then, according to the 'material' they have 'processed', go and write your manuscript.
Are you still worried about your thinking? ”
Finally, Charlie extends an arrow over the goblin word, pointing back to 'Big Man'.
A perfect cycle.
May the gods of heaven bless the big people who will be targeted by the goblins in the future!
The gods are above!
Greenskins flocked out.
Charlie silently closed the door.
"Go all the way...... Lords of the Wizards' Guild!
For the sake of the media industry in another world, dedicate your 'flesh and blood'! ”
The black dragon's scales stood up slightly.
If you want to describe his state of mind at the moment, it is - blown up.
Don't ask why.
Because the one who wiped the goblins' butts was a certain prince.
……
Charlie's words are supported by the facts.
Limits are meant to be broken.
Originally, the goblins themselves thought that the sales of the three issues had reached their peak, and it would be difficult to reach a new high.
And it turns out.
The release of the "Friday Special Issue" has made the sales chart more brilliant.
There are not enough ladders, what should I do?
Then redraw the drawings!
Originally, the horizontal axis was drawn in units of 10,000 gold coins.
But now, it has been changed to 100,000 gold coins.
Even so, the sales curve is skyrocketing.
……
In the bar, a burly man climbed onto the table on a stool.
The boss of the bar, who was covered in meat, raised his finger and pointed at him, "Hey, you bastard for Lao Tzu to come down!" ”
The adventurer standing on the wine table tossed a silver coin directly.
The boss picked up the silver coins and left with a curse.
The adventurer pulled out a large stack of newspapers, and it seemed that he had 'contracted' at least a hundred.
The adventurer unbundled the newspaper and raised it, "Last week, I said that I was bullshit and scraps, get out of here!" Look! Look! I was right! ”
"The Magicians' Guild has taken refuge behind their backs, Her Majesty the Evil Dragon God Queen! Look! Friday Special proved me right! ”
There was a commotion in the bar, and the people gathered here were talking.
……
The same thing happens in a lot of different towns.
The goblins 'cast a wide net' and collected a lot of 'whimsical' from the people who eat melons.
They counted them and wrote down some of the most widely circulated statements.
No, it works wonderfully.
Many adventurers who had been talking nonsense before didn't expect that they had been plagiarized by goblins.
They're buying these 'from their ideas'.
In order to distribute it to those who have heard themselves brag.
to promote and prove their foresight.
These people, for the sake of inexplicable vanity, buy a hundred, two hundred copies, and give them to everyone they know.
Every time a newspaper is issued, these people will never tire of boasting about their 'wisdom' again.
Then, listen contentedly to acquaintances touting them.
……
The customers were greatly 'satisfied', and the goblins were given enough gold.
Come to think of it, even a small city like Kappa City has an adventurer's tavern.
The Holy Platinum Empire has thousands of territories in one country.
On average, there are about 3~4 small towns in each territory.
Each tavern will have an adventurer who 'won the lottery'.
And on the human side alone, there are enough three great empires!
Not to mention the wide range of goblins.
This sales volume ......
No wonder the goblins are redrawing the sales map!
Although, this time, Charlie did not ask for a 'consultant fee'.
But the goblins still sent several large boxes of gold coins very well.
No one dislikes having a lot of money.
You must know that as McGonagall grows up, every time he asks Charlie for his 'reward', it grows in the way of 'dragon geometry'.
There are also many people who reacted to Charlie and euphemistically expressed whether McGonagall's behavior of 'clearly marking the price' is not very good.
Charlie directly blocked it back.
She had to pay for it herself.
The people of the territory want to use the dragon without paying?
Impossible, honestly spit out the gold coins, and don't bother the dragon if you don't have gold coins.
The dragon didn't sell her for it.
After Charlie put the gold coins in the warehouse, he grabbed a handful and handed it to the black dragon on his shoulder.
The black dragon turned his head in disdain.
Well, this 'ugly rejection' pose is pretty standard.
She didn't know what the black dragon thought, otherwise she would probably be able to beat the dragon on the spot.
"Heh~ McGonagall's salary for the next few months." Charlie smiled.
Speaking of McGonagall......
Because the ideal township has 'landed'.
McGonagall was able to guard his favorite beach again.
Enjoy the happy life of a bronze dragon with good wine, sharks, and the ability to count gold coins.
It's a pity that the last time the two dragons fought here, the little sharks in the shallow sea are all gone.
Longwei still remains.
Neither crab could be found in the shallow waters.
To eat sharks now, McGonagall has to fly out of shallow waters to find them.
The stockpiles of shark meat among the people of the city have long since bottomed out.
In order to delve into the taste of the soul, the inhabitants of the city of Beira began to study shipbuilding.
Because of the hidden danger of sharks in the shallow sea, it was solved in such a blessing in disguise.
Fish and seafood are the specialties of their tables.
These villagers have become 'freaks' who don't eat shark meat for a day.
They even frantically sell Bella's special shark meat to 'outsiders'.
If you don't eat shark meat, you are not an authentic ideal villager.
The devil knows how many 'MMP' words were cursed in their hearts by those alien races who pinched their noses and ate urine-smelling shark meat.
McGonagall took the gold coins the villagers had given him, and used the dragon's claws on the stone slab on the ground to write words that only he could understand.
"Oh, your name is John Boone. You have five sharks. Okay, 10 gold coins a shark, thank you for your patronage. ”
"What? Are you too expensive?
Come, come, I'll tell you about it.
Can you buy a cow for ten gold coins?
Can't buy it!
Can you buy a sheep?
Can't buy it either!
But with me, you can buy a delicious shark!
Do you know how big sharks are in the open sea?
It's much bigger than those little things in the shallow sea!
A shark the size of a lamb!
Knowing such a shark, how long can you eat it when marinated?
Half a month!
Let me ask you again, do you think the food expenses of ten gold coins for half a month are expensive?
If it's expensive, you can still sell shark meat, right? 5 gold coins a pound, look at it, you can still earn a lot! ”
……
McGonagall's Dragon Economics lesson is over.
The villager, John, left with a look of confusion and handed over fifty gold coins.
The order has been collected.
McGonagall stood up, took the space ring she had purchased from the Arcanist in the city, shook her body, and prepared to set off to 'stock'!
At sea, a modified elven sailing ship is quietly approaching the coastline of Beira......
