"All the materials are out of me, with additional processing fees! Isn't that enough? ”

Obviously, Rick doesn't want to give up the best equipment making machine in front of him. Although Rick has made some weapons and armor as rewards in the past few years, as a blacksmith, he can only take care of some warrior professionals, and it is difficult for Rick to take care of legal professionals and other aspects such as administrative, medical, military, etc.

If he allows Drew to accept some equipment commissions during this negotiation, it will undoubtedly be a very good lubricant for the operation of the entire academy, so Rick dares to put forward such exaggerated conditions. Once Drew agrees to his terms, Rick can make Drew produce some legal equipment or life-saving equipment and hang it on the reward list, so that the students of other departments will also have a lot of motivation. Besides, the cost of inviting a craftsman is not expensive, and since Rick has already thought about inviting Drew to make some equipment for him, these conditions must have been thought of a long time ago.

It's a pity that this big gift Drew really can't eat it. If Drew didn't have access to the materials, Rick's offer was very good, but Hank's big businessman, Drew, who had been supplying him with magic materials for a long time, didn't have too many scruples in this regard. Moreover, in terms of the quality of the materials, Rick can't compare to a dwarven merchant with a dwarven royal family standing behind him, and the saying that dwarven ore and jewel-like magic materials are the best in the continent of Ella is still a maxim, unless humans really have the kind of smelting or cutting technology that can make all dwarves bow down, it is just a joke that Rick wants to provide Drew with enough materials.

Besides, Drew was exiled here by a group of old gods of his own family, and he came to make soy sauce for a few years in the name of publicly-funded tourism, but he didn't come here to become an equipment manufacturing machine. At present, Rick's hole cards are only Drew's identity, and if he forces Drew, it's a big deal that Drew takes off that vest and returns to the City of Life for hundreds of years.

"The level of equipment can be lower, other conditions remain the same! Is it okay this time? I don't want some Tears of Light level equipment, just some equipment that children can use, so there's no need to say it so dead, right? To be honest, I just want to use some moldy magic materials in the warehouse to provide a better environment for my students, as a saint-level powerhouse, can't you even agree to such a request from an old man? ”

It seems that Rick is also a little angry when two conditions in a row are rejected. Originally, he called Drew over to get some magic equipment in the name of settling accounts, so that the academy's reward system could be further improved, and if he couldn't get anything from Drew, then Rick really didn't mind adding some threats or something to the negotiating table. And now that Drew is found to be hard, Rick has played an emotional card.

Looking at Rick, whose tone cooled a little and revealed his sincere feelings, Drew was also in a dilemma. Truth be told, Drew didn't want to make equipment for someone like Rick who was just impressed. But not to mention the fact that people's fists are there, so far they have very politely entertained Drew, who is known as the Grim Reaper, and have not shaken out Drew's identity, especially some information that Rick has deliberately concealed in the past 100 years, so that Drew and the elves have lived a relatively comfortable time. So at this point, it was a little difficult for Drew, who owed Rick a favor, to refuse Rick's request, and Rick's words reminded Drew of those selfless teachers in his previous life.

"Magical equipment is a very rare item, and according to you, I may have to ask my fiancé to make a lot of equipment with specific attributes. The fees for this kind of directional delegation have always been very high. While we thank you for hiding a lot of things for us over the years, this only allows us to accept some of your demands, not to be a price tag for you to threaten Drew. ”

While Drew was hesitating, Rick stared at Drew waiting for an answer, but Jamilia, who had been treated as non-existent by the two of them, interjected.

From the moment she entered the door, Jemelia struggled to keep up with the duo. Although Jamelia is extremely intelligent, although she has already guessed that Drew's identity is not simple, but even so, she did not expect her fiancé to have so many scary identities! After entering the door, Rick's name of the Ice Moon Grim Reaper was enough for her to digest for a while, and the two of them reported their names in front of him. The name is nothing, the problem is that Drew actually reported a holy word! It was not easy to put the events together and conclude that Drew was the Ice Moon Sage, and as a result, another unglorious reward immediately came. Coupled with the Tears of Light on the left and right, this set of serial punches completely blinded Jamelia.

Even though Jamelia had received the highest aristocratic education from the elves, she was still a half-grown child after all. This information alone was enough for her to study for a while. It wasn't until Drew was forced into a dilemma by Rick that Jamilia reluctantly suppressed the emotions that rose in her heart and came back to her senses. When she came back to her senses and saw that Drew was still there, she sorted out Rick's words just now, and then broke out loudly, interrupting the subtle atmosphere between the two foxes.

Jamilia's interruption made Drew, who was temporarily stuck in a dead end, breathe a sigh of relief, and Rick, who found that his pressing method had been broken, frowned slightly. The timing of Jamilia's interruption was very good, and if it had been too late, Drew might have agreed to Rick's request to make some equipment.

After taking a few deep breaths, Drew found that he did not blame himself for the interruption, but looked at her with encouraging eyes, and Jamilia immediately stabilized her mind. In an instant, Jamilia's mind floated through the various negotiation skills she had learned in her aristocratic education, and also the scene of her father negotiating with other nobles. After briefly sorting out the current situation, with Drew's acquiescence, Jamelia took over the negotiating power from Drew.

"Actually, the two of you were just talking about equipment at first, right? Let me give you two a good analysis of the current situation. Mr. Rick, you're trying to get Drew to make some magical equipment at the cost of concealing Drew's identity, right? And the material is provided by you and you will pay a part of the processing cost. Right? ”

"Yes."

Rick affirms Jamilia's answer, but at the same time he chuckles in his heart. When facing Drew, Rick found that this kid was a real novice who didn't know much negotiation skills at all, so Rick gave in step by step and put Drew in a situation where he had to agree to his request. It's a pity that Jemilia made his plan completely ruined, not to mention, and began to grasp the initiative. It's a pity that Rick, who pretended to be angry once, was not cheeky enough to immediately change his face in the face of a little girl like Jemilia, so he had to muffle his affirmation.

(This girl is not simple!) ）

"As far as I know, every craftsman usually makes something to practice his craft to consolidate his craft, but after all, it is just a practice. If there is a formal request, they will be very careful about whether to accept it, and even if they do, it will take a long time to prepare. And you should also understand that a craftsman's work often lasts for a long time, and in our current status, Drew simply doesn't have that much time to work on. I guess that's why Drew didn't agree to your request. ”

When Jamelia said this, Drew's heart was already full of joy. Although he rejected Rick because he didn't want to be a machine, the taste had completely changed when Jamilia said this! To be honest, whether it is in his previous life or now, Drew's negotiation skills are at the bottom, and only when he is "blackmailed" will he become a "ghost-level" powerhouse. Jamilia Drew, who had just faced a decisive move to ease the atmosphere of negotiation, didn't even think about throwing away the negotiation power, but what he didn't expect was that this fiancée, who grew up with an aristocratic education, was so capable at the negotiation table!

(It's over, the initiative is completely gone!) Hey, forget it, I don't really play with a little girl. Let's see if we can get something about it. ）

Seeing that the great advantage was being let out, Rick just smiled bitterly. Although he could have reversed the situation again with his ability, he did not do it out of a faint appreciation for Gemilia, and chose a different approach.

"To be honest, no one in our academy can teach a saint-rank powerhouse such a thing, little lady Demilia, this is like your uncle at that time. Maybe you didn't know that your fiancé came to our academy to be a librarian! If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have wanted to ask him to make gear. It doesn't hurt to tell you, I'm a Holy Blacksmith myself, and I can get some of the equipment of some warrior imps myself. But as you can see, there are not only students in the Warrior Department in this Academy, but also students in other departments who are very eager to be rewarded by the Academy for their efforts. It's a pity that I don't have that many friends with strong subclasses, and I don't have that many suitable equipment for them, so I have to ask your fiancé. ”

When he said this, Rick still had some acting elements in front of him, but when he said it, his true feelings were completely revealed. The equipment on the reward list has been a pain in his heart for so many years. According to his idea, even if it is difficult for the students to get those equipment by hanging it high, it will make these students feel a lot of enthusiasm. It's a pity that Rick, who is the guardian of the human race, has a lot of high-level equipment in his hands, but it is not for this group of students.

"That's not going to work, Drew, what level of equipment can you make now? Who is it suitable for? ”

"Theoretically, I can craft any level of equipment, but it takes a lot of time and a lot of effort to have someone provide me with magic, and there is also a success rate. But if it's a Silver Gold tier equipment, I can make it myself if I have enough materials and time, and I will attach one or two attributes. As for the level of equipment I used to wear, I didn't even think about it for a year or two. ”

In the face of Jamilia's question, Drew only slightly concealed the number of attributes he could attach and the processing time he needed.

"In that case, I suggest the old headmaster, can you post the opportunity to craft equipment as a reward on the reward list? By doing so, Drew won't have to worry about crafting so much gear, and you won't have to worry about the reward board. Isn't it? ”

When Jamelia said this, both Drew and Rick secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Drew, who has a lazy bug attack at any time, doesn't want to be led by some equipment at all, and for Rick, this is actually the best outcome he can imagine. But in the face of this result, Rick still fought for it a little, as a lesson for Gemilia, who was not right and had some talent but still lacked some practical experience.

"Then I'll add one more condition! During all these years of living in our college, Drew Kid had to be our college's jewelry processing teacher, not a mixed librarian! ”
