Chapter 812: Break

Even me, except for Ricardo, who seems to be normal, the rest of the people who come to this hall are non-humans, including elves, and most people can actually hear this.

However, this is the territory of the Human Mage Alliance after all, and there can be no conflict.

Besides, given that the clergy didn't even notice that Ricardo's scabbard was a lich lifebox, I didn't want to bother with these guys.

Ricardo put away his head and did not rush to take on the next task, but returned to Santas's shop.

Halfway through, I put Kariga's head into the Sumeru bracelet and joined it with the corpse.

When I arrived at the Santas store, Jack was still gone, but I met Borg who wanted to avoid me.

He was struggling with reckoning.

"Angelica, the First Sage, has never cared about this, and has recently suddenly had to check the accounts," said Borg, "as if it had only occurred after investing in you." ”

I looked at him with a smile.

Borg was a little strange and seemed a little annoyed, "Why are you looking at me like this?" Do you doubt me...... Hmph, I'm also a member of the core organization, how could I do such a thing, it's just that there are a lot of accounts, and it will take a little longer, so I don't have time to raise money for you for the time being......"

"Coincidentally," I said with a smile, "aren't you interested in my new system of units?" I also have a tool here that is convenient for calculations, and it is even more convenient to use! ”

"Really?" Borg tried to look interested, but his face was full of anxiety and impatience.

Leo said, "I originally wanted to squeeze a little invention patent fee from him, but let's think about it......"

I said, "You too, you changed so fast, and I wanted to cheat more money from the goblin a few days ago......"

"What do you mean by scamming money?" Leo said, "I'm speeding up their money!" ”

Next, I made an abacus using very simple materials from the store.

This kind of magical and practical calculation tool is the invention of the ancient Chinese people, although Leo felt that modern electronic devices are faster to calculate, but I think that in the current situation of no need to make transistor semiconductors and other precision instruments, the effect of the abacus is no longer comparable to that of mechanical clocks and printing presses.

Borg was also very interested in the abacus, and after understanding the usage, he said, "Oh, you have a good idea, the Human Business Alliance also has similar tools, but you use one bead in the sidebar to represent the five beads below, and you don't need two beads on the side!" The reasonable approach should be one for each string and four for the bottom, you are too wasteful......"

I was asked.

"Hey," Leo smirked, "you see, you just did what I said, and you didn't ask why, which means you didn't think about it yourself." ”

"Say," I was a little impatient, "I invented it anyway, and you might as well say I made up a reason." ”

"Okay, it seems that your psychological quality has also improved," Leo said, "in fact, it is very simple, because in ancient times, in addition to the decimal system, there was also a hexadecimal system, and at that time, a catty was sixteen taels, and the extra two beads were used in the hexadecimal system!" ”

I had to say, "Well, that's right, it's a bit redundant, but the extra one can be used as a backup, isn't it, and there's no replacement when it breaks down...... You see, didn't the carriage also have spare wheels? ”

Don't say it, I've fooled it.

Borg said, "It seems so, but this bead is so easy to break, we can replace it with an iron bead?" ”

I continued to lie even more easily, "That's your business, I'll give you this idea, you can continue to improve, after all, there are still a lot of places to settle accounts, and you can sell this thing to more places......"

"So, give it a name?" "You've invented another useful thing," Borg said. ”

"Calculator," I blurted out, "simple and straightforward." ”

Leo said, "If it weren't for the alphabet that your language also belongs to, I'd love to name it......"

"You don't have to fight over this little thing," I said, "and see how many names you've taken?" How many can surprise people? ”

Borg nodded, "It's really straightforward, then, I'll call the craftsmen to make some and spread it." ”

I said "the cost of learning can be a bit ......"

Borg shook his head, "For us goblins, bookkeeping is instinct, even if it is a calculation tool on the human side, we can quickly master it, you don't have to worry about this." ”

"All right," I said, "I'll have to go back and recuperate, and tell Jack if it's settled, let me know as soon as it's settled." ”

Borg said, "Okay, but I think if you have a new business plan, it's more cost-effective to work with us......

I smiled and shook my head, "There are many ways to make money, you can't take them all by yourself, isn't it good to share them at all?" Anyway, it's all for the development of Santas, and besides, my plan is to earn money from the Human Mage Alliance, and at this point, Jack's human identity is more appropriate. ”

Borg was a little speechless, and finally shook his head and said, "Well, although our goblins have smooth business activities in the human realm, it is indeed not so easy to ...... among magicians"

When I returned to Santas, it was already five or six o'clock in the morning, and Ricardo and I didn't rest, but the Tyrannosaurus rex slept soundly, and Ricardo had prepared some spare parts for himself after repairing it.

I asked him to give Carriga's scabbard life box a makeover to make it more inconspicuous, and it also gave Leo a stronger stealth effect. But from then on, Ricardo would always be greedy with a long sword.

As for the planned plan to use gold as the body of the sword, inlaid with rare gems, and arouse people's greed, Leo did not give up, and immediately hit the tail of the sword hilt with a gem of considerable value.

I'm writing a plan to move the model of the luxurious otherworldly food house to the trading market to gain a foothold, and when the new hybrid varieties of grain and sugar crops and the raw materials of strange dew are cultivated in the future, more food varieties will be available.

In Leo's words, "On the earth, there are three kinds of people who make the best money, that is, the elderly, children and women, but this is only suitable for the general public, in other words, it is the retired elderly, white-collar petty bourgeoisie and students, and the magician, is a combination of white-collar petty bourgeoisie and college students Some characteristics, so, first start with the petty bourgeois diet, let them enjoy the food that even the secular aristocracy can't enjoy, and then, as the production of the goblins is stable, start from the aspect of the elderly, children and women, what health care, beauty and entertainment, together!" ”

I said, "You want the magicians to indulge in enjoyment?" Honestly, this trick is more effective than gambling or something...... Earthlings are also extremely gifted in enjoying this. ”

"Actually, you should go to the human realm of the main plane," Leo said, "this is the nature of human beings, and other races are not much different, perhaps, you will be more impressed when you go back and see how the nobles of Animo City play in private." ”

"Forget it," I said, "I'm okay with humans, I'm afraid I can't bear it psychologically when I see orcs." ”

"Isn't that all there is to it?" Leo said, "Take a break, have an early meal, and get back to work." ”

It was about seven o'clock when Vincent, Camfer, and Trist got up and started exercising, and I made a breakfast with them.

Vincent was the most tired one, and his appetite was opened quite a bit.

"It's said that exercising muscles like a warrior is not good for magical practice, why do I feel that the effect is actually getting better and better now?" Vincent gulped down the barbecue made by the Tyrannosaurus Rex and said with his mouth full of oil.

"Actually, you can't exercise as much as a regular fighter now," Trist said, "and the fighters are pushing the limits of their bodies in overloaded physical training, and you're not even as good as the lowest-level fighters now." ”

"Like you, one is an orc, the other is an elven archer, and both have a stronger physique than me," Vincent waved his hand, "and I'm just a pure magician." ”

"Don't worry," I said, "isn't there an alchemical potion suitable for a warrior to improve his physique?" It's also possible to modify it a little, right? ”

"That's not good," Vincent shook his head, "I'd better practice it myself, potions or something, it's easy to form dependence." ”

"That's up to you." I say.

"How's it going over there?" Kamver asked me.

"I've earned less than two thousand, and I'd like to save up a little more to buy a dozen or twenty Star Fragments at a time," I said, "and I'll find maybe more." ”

"According to the theory of probability, it can't," Leo said, "it's like a game lottery, but there are more items in another world than in games, and some obviously worthless things are just not developed in the right way......

The three of them nodded, "Yes, you try it every time you come back from an adventure, it's better to concentrate on it." ”

"That's the wrong intuition," said Leo, "and forget it, you certainly haven't read the probability that the book has." ”

"This kind of knowledge is really contrary to common sense," I said, "and it doesn't matter." ”

At this time, Taling suddenly said, "The people of Elf Street are willing to rent you a piece of half-plane." ”

"Really?" I said, "What about the conditions?" ”

"The rent is 10,000 gold a year," said Taling, "a plane that is very suitable for plant growth, and it is indeed very good that the elven mages have stumbled upon it." ”

I said, "Honestly, it's a bit expensive for me now, can I owe it?" ”

Taling was silent for a moment, then said, "They said no, but you can connect the dimensional entrance directly to your residence, and I will be stationed to help manage it." ”

"Want to monitor our half-plane?" Leo sneered, "No way! ”
