Chapter 102: Bliss in Life

As early as when Blue Star was still in the period of rolling on the ground, there was a saying in a large eastern country that said that the bliss of life should be: sleep until you wake up naturally, count the money and count the menstruation.

Regarding the matter of natural awakening, whether it is the big man of the imperial capital, or the high-ranking priest, or even just an ordinary high-level professional, they don't have much hope. After all, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, wake up to the power of the world, everything in the world has to be judged by you, you just feel that the time is not enough, how can you have the opportunity to get drunk on the knees of the beauty. As for those high-level professionals who are not in power, if they can sleep until they wake up naturally, they will naturally not be able to achieve their current achievements.

As for counting the money and drawing the scriptures, I'm afraid that only a few of them have this opportunity. As a bigwig of the imperial court, he bribed the dead, befriended colleagues, rewarded fellow parties, and bribed political enemies, where he didn't want money, although there was a lot of opportunity to collect money every year, but the money was passed through in his hands and flowed out again. On the contrary, there are some people who are not angry and are younger brothers, anyway, there is the boss in front of them, and they can collect money with peace of mind, and they will inevitably be slaughtered by the court as pigs in the end.

The emperor was rich all over the world, but there were many places to ask for money, both to raise soldiers and herdsmen, today there is a disaster, tomorrow there is a disaster, no matter how much tax was collected in the previous year, he is always in a state of lack of money.

Originally, the high-level professionals who were most likely to become extremely wealthy only needed to support their own family, and there were a lot of people to work and win over, as long as they were a little famous, it was not a dream to gather a lot of wealth out of thin air. However, the equipment, medicines, experimental equipment and experimental materials needed by high-level professionals are expensive one by one, and many so-called high-level professionals have been in a cycle of saving money-saving-spending-saving-saving-spending.

As a promising high-ranking magician of the magic cannon department, this is almost a portrayal of Qin Shouzhuo's future, if Qin Shouzhuo is not a traverser.

Since the production of the mana recovery medicine, in order to minimize the impact on the original pharmacist's survival system, Qin Shouzhuo set the retail price to be the same as the market price of the old-fashioned medicine, and everyone competed at one price. Despite this, the ex-factory price set by Qin Shouzhuo was not high, and a large amount of profits were ceded to dealers.

In the imperial capital, just under Qin Shouchuang's nose, and under the strict supervision of the headquarters of the Pharmacists Association, the implementation of this policy is relatively good, but outside the imperial capital where the Pharmacists Association lacks strength, such a large amount of supply, in the face of a not too large market, price reduction and dumping has become a common choice for everyone.

In just three months, the standard price of low-grade magic recovery potions has actually dropped from 10 silver to 5 silver per bottle, and it is still falling. Even if it is the imperial capital, while maintaining the price of 10 silver on the surface, the hot underground transactions have been repeatedly banned, because of the close distance and low storage and transportation costs, the transaction price has even bottomed out for 3 silver.

Qin Shouzhuo expressed helplessness in this regard, we have set a sales guide price, but unfortunately the dealers at the bottom do not follow the rules, what can I do. What? Raising the ex-factory price? Raising the ex-factory price is not high, isn't this a pit for the common people, and I am not a profiteer.

Such a factory with an annual output of 20,000 tons of magic recovery potions, the shareholders cover the entire Lawrence Empire, military, political, and religious bigwigs, and even the royal family has shares. When the pharmacists who couldn't do business quarreled with the Pharmacists Association and asked the association to deal with it, Qin Shouzhuo just held a shareholders' meeting in advance, divided the dividends of the previous months, and submitted the material orders for the second half of the year to the suppliers. Boxes of silver coins were divided, and even the Pharmacists Association did not dare to provoke the anger of the public, not to mention that he himself was not clean.

How many big guys have felt the feeling of counting money and drawing menstrual prayers for the first time in their lives, which is amazing!

Qin Shou is also cool, he was not a poor person before the crossing, but the money at that time was just a number on the bank account, and he lacked intuitive feelings. And this time there are so many pieces of silver piled up in front of me, it's really refreshing!

"Guard, this money has to pay the arrears of the previous construction of the Babia Industrial City and the Potions Factory, as well as the misappropriated development funds of the Food for the Sky Chamber of Commerce, in addition to the next quarter's Chamber of Commerce procurement budget, the Barony of Babia procurement budget, and the next stage of the Babia Steel City construction advance...... Bala Bala Bala ...... So, there's so much more you can use. ”

As she spoke, Sophia gathered all the silver coins and packed them into boxes, then grabbed a handful from inside, ignoring Qin Shouzhuo's tearful and pleading eyes, took out two more from it, and then put the rest in front of Qin Shouzhuo. Beckoning a few servants, carrying boxes of silver coins, he left the large conference room without looking back. After going out, he glanced back at Qin Shouzhuo, who was heartbroken and staring at a handful of silver coins in front of him, and couldn't help but smile, and suddenly the cold steel jungle also revealed a sense of spring.

When Sophia walked away, Qin Shouzhuo could still see the decadent appearance before, leaning on the back of the chair with his eyes closed, kicking the table and shaking, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, holding a silver coin in his right hand and constantly bouncing into the air, and then catching it, whispering something in his mouth.

Looking back and smiling, the six palaces have no color. ”

........................

With the cash input of the magic potion factory, the construction of Babia Steel City was restarted, and the heavy-duty airships brought a steady stream of rare raw materials, and the workers who had gradually become familiar with this new job, under the leadership of Qin Shouzhuo, continued to deepen the steel processing system and develop new iron products.

However, it is clear that this agrarian society did not need many kinds of steel, and most of the output of the Babia Iron and Steel Works, in addition to supplying military production, was used by Qin Shouzhuo's urban construction. After the completion of the second phase of expanded reproduction, Lawrence alone can no longer absorb such a huge steel production and processing capacity.

The annual output of steel totals 2 million tons, which in Qin Shouzhuo's opinion is a small factory that needs to be shut down, but in this other world, this is already an out-and-out astronomical figure. Although Qin Shouzhuo tried his best to keep a low profile, His Majesty the Emperor still interviewed Qin Shouzhuo as an elder, the output of steel in Babia has far exceeded the sum of the rest of the entire southern diocese combined, and if the imperial family no longer pays attention to such a huge output, then they will not be able to sit on the throne for a long time.

Just after Sophia also found Qin Shouzhuo and put forward a warning about market saturation, Qin Shouzhuo finally calmed down, it is not uncommon for companies to overexpand and eventually die, and Qin Shouzhuo does not want to be the next one. An order suspended the second and third phases of the expansion of the Babia steel plant and instead focused on the development of new products.

Not to mention Qin Shouzhuo's never-ending development matters, the magic apprentices of this era felt the warmth of spring.

Magic is a thing that is meant to be used for a lot of things. The more you use it, the more proficient you will be, and the more familiar you will be with the corresponding elements, the magic will respond quickly, the element density will be greater, and the magic will be more powerful. There is a contradiction in the middle, with great power and a wide range of magic, the magic power consumption is naturally greater. Even if it is usually practiced, few people will throw a burst fireball every day, at most throw a fire dragon dance to exercise magic control, most of the time it is still a fireball + a beaded fireball.

Magic is simply the combination of spiritual power and elements, the fusion process must rely on the resonance of the soul and the elements to complete, magicians need to adjust their soul fluctuations, so that it fits the fluctuations of a certain element to form a resonance, the spiritual power and elements together condensed, will form a great burden on the soul, so the new mage usually does not meditate for a long time, after the meditation is completed, it usually takes a period of time to recuperate the soul in order to reach their peak state.

If the recovery of mana is done through meditation, it will put a great burden on the soul, and even lead to a temporary decrease in strength, while the natural recovery is very slow. The lack of magic is often the reason why magicians rarely use big magic to exercise. Of course, there are always people who are not bad for money and can take drugs to level up. With the help of potions, it will not bring too much burden to the soul and at the same time, it will quickly recover the magic power, so it is not impossible to keep practicing ** magic.

For an apprentice from an ordinary family, a bottle of low-level mana recovery potion of 10 silver coins is also a considerable amount of money to drink constantly, and there are not many that can afford it. And even the children of rich families who can afford it are quite cautious about the practice of big magic - taking drugs is not a pleasant feeling, and the taste is similar to eating, don't ask me why I know, I don't want to say.

Since the opening of the Lawrence Pharmacy Factory, it has been clear that things have changed. Sweet and sour fruity taste, not to mention magic potions, even in ordinary drinks, only freshly squeezed juices have this taste. It's obviously unrealistic to take a juicer with you wherever you go, and it takes time to squeeze it quickly, which is like a magic potion, you can pour it into your mouth when you pull out the stopper, cool!

Since the beginning of summer, not only magicians, but also samurai, and even wealthy ordinary people have begun to drink it. After all, this thing quenches thirst, there are no side effects (in fact, it has not been found yet), it is easy to carry, and the price is not expensive, and the price of each bottle has fallen to about 3 silver and 70 copper.

They are all fruit-flavored, almost expensive drinks, and the magic potion is obviously even higher, and it has inadvertently invaded the soft drink market and defeated the traditional flavored juice series.

The most intuitive change brought about by the popularity of magic potions is that graduates from magic colleges and universities in Lawrence after 4828 have almost made a qualitative leap in their spell-casting ability, speed, magic power, and especially the control of large-scale magic compared to the previous students.
