Chapter 242: Alchemy Luxury
Stanley didn't say his ultimate purpose in the end, only that after he helped Su Mu and the others raise enough funds, he also needed to borrow a large amount of money from it for temporary use.
Regarding this point, since Stanley's premise is to complete Su Mu's needs, Su Mu naturally no longer asks.
So for the rest of the day, it seems that everything is back on track.
Although the alchemy workshop that has been established or the alchemy laboratory that is about to be established will undoubtedly be "touted" by major journals again.
But in fact, after handing over the management to Stanley, everyone returned to their own duties.
Lu Xi returned to the academy to start the course, and it became one of the most popular courses at the moment.
Su Tong continued to run her afternoon tea party, and indeed turned the tea party into a fashion in the upper echelons of the Federation, and even vaguely, even ordinary residents knew the influence of the tea party.
As for Su Mu himself, although in terms of his current status, it was almost an extravagant fantasy to go to the academy to enjoy regular magic teaching.
However, Su Mu didn't particularly care about this.
On the one hand, Su Mu also has a tutor like Lu Xi, who can fully enjoy one-on-one teaching.
Secondly, compared with the education of others to Su Mu, in fact, Su Mu needs more ...... But it is to organize the books in my mind as soon as possible, and then plan the future growth route.
So for a while, except for Teyiao, who was the messenger of the dark bard, and he had personally gone to the alchemy workshop that had been built, the rest of the people did not pay any more attention.
It seems that both the trust in Stanley and the laissez-faire of Teyao are so taken for granted.
So that in such a situation, in fact, even what their own workshop produces, Su Mu and the others are actually completely blinded...... I don't know anything!
......
Time always seems to pass faster than one might think.
When the tea party in the princess's mansion completely became the norm of socializing, and the academy tutor Lu Xi became more and more famous, even Su Mu went back and forth to the broken world twice.
The day of harvest finally came as scheduled.
It is still the office on the top floor of the Mysteries Society, and it is still all the members of Su Mu's family, and it is still such a peaceful afternoon.
But in the face of Stanley's call, everyone knew what was coming.
"So, what do we need to do now?"
The first to speak, naturally, was Su Mu, who had faintly become the core of everyone.
And as soon as Su Mu opened his mouth, he also asked very bluntly and directly, what kind of cooperation would Stanley need everyone to make.
Undoubtedly, in Stanley's shrewdness, he would never have summoned the "bosses" in a senseless manner.
And since he will gather all the people, there must be a need for renewal.
Regarding Su Mu's sharp point, Stanley was also unequivocal:
"The first batch of alchemy techniques you gave me have already transformed and produced a large number of finished products in the workshop, and now all we need to do is to spread these finished products. ”
"Therefore, I now need to ask all the bosses to bring different levels of alchemy products to the circles that you can influence, and use this to expand the influence of many affiliated workshops of the Mystic Society. ”
Stanley's request was not strange at all.
However, regarding the "transformation" that Stanley specifically mentioned, both Su Mu and Lu Xi were slightly surprised that Stanley was able to strengthen the mature alchemy technology.
After all, Su Mu and the others, who are alchemists themselves, are actually very clear:
"It is difficult for any mature alchemy to change its core magical logic, and there are few precedents for it to continue to strengthen it. ”
Therefore, when Stanley said this, together with Su Mu, who was an alchemist, they finally began to look forward to the finished products produced in the workshop.
......
But the outcome of the facts is obviously contrary to the expectations of Su Mu and others.
When Stanley was extremely mysterious, he finally unveiled the few samples that had been placed in his office a long time ago.
Not to mention alchemists like Su Mu and Lu Xi, they could see the simplicity of the structure of these alchemists at a glance, and even Su Tong, the imperial princess who was an ordinary person, seemed to understand Stanley's plan as well.
At this time, the three samples placed in front of Su Mu and the others were the simplest and most traditional Qi energy crystal lamp, a slightly more complex small Qi power fountain, and an alchemy hair instrument with the highest difficulty in making.
And in addition to their own characteristics, there is no doubt that the three also have very obvious common characteristics.
I saw whether it was the luxurious gold-plated appearance of the Qi Neng crystal lamp, or the elaborate design of the small Qi Power Fountain, or even the beautiful cherry wood keyboard of the alchemy transmitter.
Everything is completely stacked towards gorgeousness, rather than the pursuit of performance.
Even when Su Mu was very serious and looked at the magic language engraved on these alchemy vessels, he really confirmed the guess in his heart:
The so-called transformation in Stanley's mouth is not only not to strengthen the core of the alchemy, but to accommodate the splendor of the appearance, weakening the basic function of the alchemy.
"Are you going to sell these inferior products for a higher price than their peers?"
The first to question it was naturally Avina who had long been unaccustomed to Stanley's behavior.
As a qualified mage, even though Avina was indeed born into a wealthy federal family, she obviously still values practicality most when it comes to the examination of alchemy.
However, for her questioning, Su Mu had already guessed the ending.
Because there is no doubt that people like Avina or Lu Xi who can see through the advantages and disadvantages of alchemy at a glance are actually not the majority of the federated relatives.
The most of the children of the upper echelons of the federation are ordinary people who are not very good at vision.
"Don't get excited, bosses, you don't understand the structure, but it's just because you're not the target customer at all. You are now looking at your own needs, and you are falling into a misunderstanding. ”
Stanley was not at all ashamed or annoyed by Avina's questioning.
Instead, he calmly explained:
"For you, alchemy is a utility, so you will inevitably seek to maximize performance. But in fact, for more family members, this is just a symbolic thing. Not only do they not have much need for performance, but they don't even need its real functionality. ”
So how to create the thing that can best show their superiority with the simplest technical difficulty is the problem that a qualified businessman should consider. ”
When Stanley said this, the cunning in his eyes was already clear.
"And most importantly, even if they don't think it's really luxurious. But as long as you are now, you are all champions, intentionally or unintentionally, of these products. Even if it is just to imitate your behavior, or to try to get a self-deception comparable to yours, they will still buy it aggressively. ”
"So the pricing of these three items, they are also ...... A gold-plated crystal lantern, 800 gold coins, a small Qi power fountain, 2,000 coins, and a customized alchemy hair detector, 10,000 gold coins!"
