"Huh!" Karen jerked back in fright, but the next second his back was blocked by the sofa, and he could only watch the fireball smash into him.

And just when the fireball was less than ten centimeters away from him, the jewelry in Karen's hand burst into a bright light, and in an instant, a spell shield enveloped Cullen inside.

And the fireball also exploded after colliding with the shield, and a lot of sparks flew in all directions.

Claire beckoned, and all the sparks were gathered into his hand, and with Claire's palm, all the sparks on it dissipated.

Karen gasped for a few breaths before he realized that Claire was showing him the function of the jewelry again.

But it was so scary, it almost didn't scare him half to death.

"Master Claire, tell me about this kind of thing in the future." Cullen smiled wryly.

Claire also smiled embarrassedly, he was also improvised, but with his strength, there could be no accidents, and the other party should be very impressed now.

"Do you see the difference between this jewelry and other jewelry now?"

"Hmm." Cullen nodded, picked up the jewelry, and showed it, "Is Lord Claire planning to solidify some defensive spells on it?" ”

"That's right."

This is the result of the artisans in Naf, who create the jewelry, and the artisans in Naf, who solidify spells on it, or perform buffs like inscriptions.

Karen grimaced again, "Lord Claire, I have something to say. ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it, we don't have to worry about anything, we're just partners, and it's better to talk about it clearly."

"Okay, I'll just say it." Karen licked his tongue, it seems that this Lord Claire is not the kind of person who is difficult to communicate with, and it seems that there is really hope for his jewelry store.

"Some people have thought of this idea before, and they have also taken practical actions to make a batch of jewelry with magical effects, but the feedback from the market is not good, and very few jewelry is sold, and in the end it can only be sold as an ordinary magic object."

Cullen continued: "I've been in the jewelry business for so many years, and I've pretty much figured it out. ”

"To sum it up: the more expensive the material of the jewelry, the better, the higher the cost, the better, and the more useless the jewelry, the better."

"The latter sentence is particularly important."

Cullen said and suddenly laughed, "It's hard to understand, isn't it?" At first, I didn't understand why I spent so much money on useless things! ”

"After the jewelry business is more I know, jewelry and other practical objects are different, its attributes are luxury, customers spend money he does not want to buy a useful thing, but to buy things that need to show their identity, and the more expensive the thing, the more it can show that they are different from ordinary people, the more useless the more they can screen out some powerful people, don't look at the price, in fact, it is the difference in class identity."

"This is the meaning of luxury, and even more so of jewelry as a representative luxury product."

"In their view, jewelry is jewelry, and magical objects with defensive spells are magical objects, one is practical and the other has class attributes, and these two things are separate."

"I can't attach the above spell value to the jewelry, in the eyes of ordinary people, I spent so much money to buy a piece of jewelry and actually has a spell function on it, I made a lot of money!"

But in the eyes of the rich, what they compare is not how practical their jewelry is, but how expensive the materials I bought for 3,000 gold coins, how fine the workmanship is, and which master made it himself. I don't compare how much curing magic the jewelry has and how good it works. But if you say that the jewelry has defensive spells, it will be looked down upon by the rest of the people, and they will think, "You spent so much gold to buy a useful decoration?" Isn't the family down? ”

"It's hard to explain this mentality, but it's there, they feel that if they want to buy magical objects for defensive spells, they can buy them specifically, and they won't buy them to decorate their jewelry, the two are not interconnected."

"So if you get the two things together, it will become not up or down, nondescript, in their eyes, it is a magic object with a spell shield, it is nothing more than that the material is a little expensive, you want to sell it at a high price, it is impossible for them to classify this thing as jewelry, at most it is a magic shield with fine workmanship. And in the "

Claire listened to Cullen's words and kept nodding, "You know quite a lot." ”

Karen smiled modestly, "I've been engaged for a long time, so I naturally know a little more." ”

"What you say makes sense." Claire said and paused, "But there is one thing you didn't consider, if there is nothing different from other jewelry manufacturers, then how can our jewelry store rise in so many jewelry stores?" ”

"Take your time, with my experience give me a few years to get into the top 10 of jewelers again!" Cullen patted his chest and said confidently.

"How many years? What are the top 10? ”

Karen was silent for a moment, then gritted his teeth, "Give me five years, and give me another 10 million silver dragon coins, and I can achieve the fifth position!" If not, I'll leave it to you! ”

The competition in the Kingdom of Jersey is so fierce that if you were someone else, you wouldn't dare to say that the jewelry store you created can survive there for five years, let alone achieve the top five positions. Karen is also forcing himself to push forward!

"No need to say such things, I said that we are partners, and you don't need to make any military orders with me."

"Of course I believe in your strength."

"It's just...... Five years is too long, and I don't have the patience. ”

"How long do you want it to be, my lord?" Cullen asked.

"Two months."

Karen:???! Are you kidding? I can't do it if you kill me for two months!

Seeing Karen's reaction, Claire felt a little interesting, "It's okay, don't bother you, I'll order the plan, and you'll be responsible for executing it." ”

"So...... Or do you still use this kind of jewelry with magical properties? Cullen asked, somewhat uncertain.

Claire nodded, "That's right." ”

Karen: "......"

Before, he thought Claire was a good communicator, but now why did he suddenly become so persistent.

"Lord Claire, what ...... The market has proven that this method will not work, or we should find a new way, right? "Karen thinks he's going to die miserably if it's really on the shelves!

"Don't worry." Claire showed a confident smile, "It's not that the market doesn't accept it, it's just a matter of method." ”

"If I come, there will definitely be no problem."

Seeing Claire so hard-headed, Karen also decided not to persuade him anymore, otherwise it would be bad to cause disgust. I can only think about how I can control the loss at that time. And seeing that Claire is quite rich, if she fails once, she can come back later, and she won't be so iron-headed.

"That's it, I'll ask Reagan to give you the money, and you go back and settle the matter at the jewelry store first. Then find some masters who are good at design, and if you don't have enough money, then ask Reagan again. ”

"Understood, Master Claire."
