Chapter 513: Luxury
As the city lord, once Rocky became willful, no one could stop him, so under his order, the technicians of Thunder Eagle City had to act, and the result was really in response to the old saying, the leader moved his mouth, and his subordinates broke their legs.
Rocky ordered his technicians to put down their work and work hard to design the purse, which sounded easy, but it really made it difficult for them to fall on the technicians.
Although these people are all professional technicians, each of them is very skilled in terms of design ability and manual ability, but they have only made leather armor or leather goods before, and it is really difficult for them to design and make a leather bag.
But fortunately, Rocky was quite concerned about this matter, he did not leave it alone after giving the order, but started to design with the technicians after arranging the things at hand, because he really felt that if this industry could be developed, it would definitely allow Thunder Eagle City to make a lot of profits, so it was no wonder that he was so concerned about this matter.
Once he was involved in the design, Lodge discovered that the technicians faced a dilemma, which was that they had no idea what they were asking for.
Rocky asked them to design for themselves a devil's leather handbag for women, the kind of handbag that women often wear when attending balls or banquets, which looks small and exquisite, and is a typical luxury, which is not only used by ordinary people, but also rarely used by nobles.
However, his request was too difficult for the technicians, because everyone didn't know what the bag Rocky wanted was like, and in order to solve this problem, Rocky had to go out himself.
On the one hand, he personally went into battle and told the technicians as much as possible about his memories of the bag, and on the other hand, he asked Erin to contact the Ruby Chamber of Commerce, and then asked the Ruby Chamber of Commerce to conduct a big sweep in the Nightless God City, sweeping all the ladies with their bags.
Although in Rocky's opinion, all the bags in this world are too ordinary, and even if there are some 'high-end' goods specially created for the aristocracy, they are far from the luxury goods in his impression in terms of style, texture, and even price, but these things can inspire technicians, at least allow them to find inspiration for design.
In this way, there are not only Lodge's explanations, but also physical objects to refer to, and the technicians will quickly make progress, and various design plans will be released one after another.
After having these design schemes, Rocky took the trouble to find all the women around him, including Lilia, Erin, Athena, Tussaud, etc., and asked them to choose these designs together and choose the one they liked.
"My lord, what is this?"
Holding a blueprint and looking at it again and again, Tussaud looked at Rocky with a question mark on his face, puzzled.
"You're ...... the other way around"
Seeing Tussaud holding a design and looking upside down, Rocky was also helpless, so she had to straighten up the drawing in her hand while talking: "This is called a handbag, it will be very beautiful after it is made, and Tussaud will definitely become the focus when she takes it to banquets and balls in the future." ”
"Really?"
Blinking his big eyes and looking at the design, Tussaud shook his head: "Why didn't I see what was good......
"Nonsense, there must be something good-looking, you look for it. ”
Patting Tussaud's little head, Rocky turned to Lilia.
"How's that, do you have a favorite?"
When he came to Lilia's side, Rocky asked with a smug face, but it turned out to be a big roll of the eyes of Lilia.
Until now, Lilia still didn't agree with his approach, and always felt that it was more appropriate to use it as armor than to use precious demon skins as a so-called luxury, so when Rocky had made up his mind, and no one else dared to talk more about this matter, only Lilia still didn't support it, and she was the only one in the entire Thunderhawk City who dared to do this against Rocky.
However, Rocky's reaction to Lilia was not surprising at all, he knew Lilia too well, and it would be strange if Lilia directly agreed, but it didn't matter if she objected, as long as the matter was finally done, Lilia would finally understand.
"Don't mess with me, you have to choose one you like, you have to. ”
So after smiling at Lilia, Rocky said it like a joke, and then walked over to Erin.
"My lord, this kind of bag ...... How much are you going to buy?"
With Tussaud's innocence and Lilia's worries, Erin neither supports nor opposes Rocky's idea, she is more concerned about whether Rocky will make a profit by doing so.
You must know that if you use demon skin to make a bag, if you can't sell it, it will lose a lot, and even if you buy it cheaply, you will lose money, so her mind is not at all on whether these designs look good or not, but on whether she can make money.
"How much do you think is the right amount to buy?"
As for Erin's question, Rocky answered by a rhetorical question.
"Well...... 1000 gold?"
Taking the blueprint in her hand and looking at it, Erin thought about it and said.
Considering the size of the handbag, even if it is made of demon skin, it won't take much, so she first gave a price rationally, but then she shook her head before Rocky could speak: "No, 1000 gold coins is too cheap, after all, it is made of demon skin, how can it be considered a luxury if it takes 5000 gold coins." ”
Since Erin is a treasurer herself, when Lodge explains what luxury is, she understands it the fastest, so she quickly re-estimates a price through the definition of luxury.
5,000 gold coins, this price is already astronomical in her opinion, this is just a handbag after all! After all, even if the devil skin is very precious, a good demon skin on the market is only five or six thousand gold coins, and if a small handbag buys 5,000 gold coins, it is equivalent to a complete demon skin, so she thinks that this price is still more appropriate, and it also echoes the positioning of luxury.
But when she said the price to the best of her imagination, Rocky shook his head, and then said simply, "Ten times more." ”
"Ten, ten?!"
"Your Excellency...... W-You're going to sell this thing for 50,000 gold coins?!"
Hearing this price, Erin immediately opened her little mouth, the whole person was stupid, the price of 5000 gold coins was already a crazy price in her opinion, she never expected Rocky to be even crazier than her!
However, Rocky didn't explain much about her surprise, and after smiling, he walked over to Athena.
When he came to Athena's side, he found that Athena was looking at the design drawings carefully, and divided the design drawings he had seen into two groups, one with more and the other with less, and when Rocky stood up, he said without waiting for her to speak: "These two look pretty good, and the others are too ordinary." ”
Unlike everyone else, Athena was most interested in Rocky's idea, although she was opposed at first, but when Rocky made a decision, she not only did not persuade her, but also became interested in Rocky's idea, so this time when Rocky asked her to choose the design, Athena was the most serious.
Her reaction naturally made Rocky very satisfied, so she immediately picked up the design she was satisfied with and looked at it, not to mention, it was really good, Athena was a person who had seen a big scene after all, and her vision was different, and the two design schemes she chose even Rocky thought looked good.
In this way, the morning passed quickly, and finally under Rocky's personal supervision, Lilia, Irene, Athena, and Tussaud chose six satisfactory designs from many design proposals.
After selecting these six works, Lodge immediately sent these six design proposals to the manufacturing factory, so that the technicians could immediately start working to make these six works.
