16 Pull the lamp 3 - The love of my heart
"From today onwards, I can make at least twice as much money as before!"
Colleen's eyes narrowed into slits as she looked happily at Philip, who was sitting across from him.
All business establishments have prime time, and this time period is the time when the most customers and the most efficient way to make money.
After this period of time, it is not that there is no money to be made, but the cost of keeping the tavern brightly lit is too high, and once the lights are lowered, the atmosphere in the tavern is reduced, and people come to drink to make an atmosphere.
Just like on the earth, when people go to a restaurant to eat and see the store turn off the lights one by one, they will think that the store is closing, and those who still want to eat will hurriedly check out and leave. The same goes for the customers of the Mermaid Tavern, who saw that the atmosphere was not good, and those who wanted to continue drinking would leave.
"It's really Xiexie, if it weren't for your amazing lighting system, I wouldn't have made this money. ”
In the basement of the tavern, Colleen halved the pile of coins on the table for Philip, and a white plain hand took the man's palm and placed it on the pile.
All the magic lamps in the Mermaid Tavern are no longer the energy-intensive products that used to use magic circles to stimulate the energy of magic crystals.
Philip used his knowledge of electricity from his previous life to transform the magic lamp, no longer in the form of a magic lamp and a power source, but instead of putting an empty magic crystal in each lamp, and then leading the wires into the overall energy supply in the basement of the tavern.
Beside Philip, there was a wooden box, the magic crystal inside was emitting a faint light, and the two ends of the wooden box were two pale red copper sheets, and two thick demonic beast tendons were connected to it.
Philip used to always follow the knowledge of electricity when he was on the earth, and the energy can only be transmitted to metal, but later after being reminded by Franklin, he remembered that on this shijie, the magic energy of the Warcraft is completed through its own meridians, that is, the tendons on the Warcraft can also be transmitted to the magic energy, and as a result, Shiyan took a look and found that the resistance of this way of transmission is less, the heat is less, and the loss of magic energy is less.
At the same time, after the use of centralized energy supply, the magic loss is greatly reduced compared with the original lighting system, for example, the original 100 magic crystals as light bulbs can only be used for 10 days, but now 100 magic crystals to form an energy supply system will be able to meet the use of 100 empty magic crystals for more than 30 days.
Philip carefully withdrew Coleen's hand, divided a large portion of the coin in front of him and put it back into Colleen's share, and gathered the rest together in another cloth bag.
The gold, silver, and copper coins made a pleasant tinkling sound, but the city lord's face still had a faint smile: "Colleen, Xiexie, you asked me to be the first place to show to the outside world here, I should have given you this money as a reward, but it cost a lot of money to buy various materials, so I will take back the money I paid for the materials, please don't be surprised." ”
Colleen had a pretty face, "Are you the one who is weird, why do you divide it so clearly, don't you treat me as a friend if you calculate it so clearly?"
Colleen once again distributed some of the money and put it in front of Philip, "If you don't accept this money today, you won't come to the Mermaid Tavern again in the future, and I will naturally ask someone to send it to your house every month for the liquor money." ”
Philip smiled awkwardly, and reluctantly opened his purse and filled it with the coin.
Colleen nodded with satisfaction, looking at Philip's eyes and becoming infinitely gentle, "It's five o'clock in the morning, or you can rest here with me......"
This is what Philip fears the most, the most difficult to accept the grace of beauty.
Colleen is sexy enough and very gentle with Philip, but Philip never gets past the hurdle in his heart, and Katrina's image always comes to his mind from time to time.
Immediately, the man hurriedly stood up and hurriedly said, "That, it's okay, I'll go back first......" and then fled.
As a nobleman, especially the son of a great nobleman, Philip received all kinds of education since he was a child, in the words of the ancient Celestial Empire, qin, chess, calligraphy and painting.
The piano is vocal music, and Philip is incomplete in five tones and gives up;
Chess is an intellectual game, Philip, like most well-educated people, can do it, and in his previous life, he passed the registered electrical engineer exam with a pass rate of one percent, and his intelligence is relatively developed, and he also plays all kinds of intellectual games well;
Books, that is, writing, are barely handy, and they are definitely not good-looking, and they are the same as most of the undergraduate migrant workers on the planet who use typing instead of writing;
Painting is Philip's greatest pride, because Philip is very good at painting, and the characters he paints are lifelike, not that he is very skilled in painting, but that he puts his heart and soul into each of his paintings, making them look lifelike, as if they have life.
Philip will only draw one person, Katrina, the goddess of hope, Katrina, his former wife, his current wife, his future wife, Katrina!
"My dear, I dreamed of you again, do you remember that pond we used to go to when we were kids? I dreamed that we were lying on the grass by the pond for picnics. ”
Philip held the pen and gently painted on the canvas, Katrina's peerless face jumped on the paper, "I dreamed that you are still so beautiful, you have to smile so sweet, we love each other, hug each other, and look at the blue sky and white clouds together." ”
The expression on Katrina's face was painted by Philip, as he said, sweet and beautiful, compared to the dignified and serious goddess in the church, Philip's painting of Katrina looks more like a girl next door.
"Bang dang!"
The window of the studio was suddenly blown open by a gust of wind, which blew the paper on the shelf to roll up, and Philip quickly clamped the paper with a clip, closed the window, and sat back down.
"Honey, I know your resentment against me hasn't been cleared yet, but, you should also see my efforts, Colleen is a good girl......"
"Boom!"
A copper kettle on the cabinet fell to the ground, and Philip did not get up to clean it up this time, but continued: "But, as you can see, although she has affection for me, I can avoid it, and I am not attracted to her. My heart is still with you, I have always wanted to get back together with you, you can rest assured, in the remaining eight years, I will not fall in love with another woman, I will fulfill our agreement wholeheartedly, please wait for me, and be my wife again. ”
Philip finished saying this in a row, and nothing strange happened in the room again, Philip looked at the beautiful girl in the painting and smiled, and was about to say something else, when he heard a knock on the door outside.
"My lord, the leader of the Bloodline, Grace, is coming for you. ”
Philip sighed, put down the brush in his hand, and turned to walk out. In the studio, Katrina, the girl-next-door goddess of hope, smiled like a beautiful joke, as if watching Philip leave, and the moment the man walked out of the doorway, the easel fell apart, and all the wood that had been put together disintegrated and fell to the ground with the beautiful painting.
