Chapter 580: Reopening the Source of Wealth

The bell that rang at the end of class at the right time completely calmed the mood of a certain eldest sister. She flashed straight away and disappeared from the classroom, leaving someone to clean up the aftermath.

Lin, who came out to play the round, breathed a sigh of relief and packed up the things he brought today, especially the samples taken from his body to be recovered. But the microscope didn't touch it. Instead, after patting it, he said to the old magician next to him whose eyes were shining: "Your Excellency Kabanbai, this microscope is our gift to the academy. ”

"Gifts? Why is that? "For magicians, a trade is an equivalent exchange, and it is fair to think of a 'gift' as an unequal exchange. Even the gift also has its purpose, so it is more reassuring to ask clearly.

Of course, Lin knew the origin of the old magician's worries, and he said bluntly: "In the future lessons, I will also use this microscope." It's a hassle to move around, and it's also cumbersome to install it after moving. So after discussing with Fen, it would be better to donate one to the academy, so that the effort of moving and loading it would be saved, and the responsibility for keeping it would also be on the academy's side. Besides, people will want to use it, at least when I was researching it. Leaving a common one can also allow the college to arrange the use of this microscope in their spare time, so that they can only be greedy and can't do anything. That's a nice gift, isn't it? ”

The part that someone didn't say, of course, was to put a prototype in the academy, what a good advertisement. People who want to use it come to touch it, and if they touch it, they want to take one home and touch it slowly, which is human nature. Don't ask if the pie is useful, even if it really can't be used, for some masters, having one at home is also a good baby.

It's the same mentality as aristocrats putting art in their homes. Since in the Holy City, the Masters will seek academic status, and what better way to say how knowledgeable the owner of the house is than this kind of professional machine.

For the great magician Kabanbai, knowing the other party's reason is actually around one word, 'lazy'. Although I haven't known these two for a few days, their personalities are really easy to figure out. Kabambai could only smile at the gift, and at the same time felt the burning gaze behind him. It is conceivable that there will be a lot of old friends and new friends vying for the right to use the microscope.

But he has another problem. "Lord Tripwood, do you want to sell this microscope publicly?"

This is what someone thinks in their hearts, otherwise they don't know how to open this mouth. "Oh, somebody wants to buy it, of course that's fine. This was made by the silverbearded dwarves who traveled with me, and the internal program was carefully designed by Fen, in addition to the function of micro-magnification, it also has the functions of photography, scanning, analysis, and recording. Not only can the specimen be viewed through the eyepiece, but it can also be connected to a hydroscope screen. If you want, the price is MM Kiel (2000 gold), and a special custom service is also available. That is, for special needs, corresponding designs can be made. The production period, as long as the materials are not delayed, can be completed in about seven to fourteen days. Unless there are very special requirements. The documentation is recorded directly in the microscope's operating system, and can be consulted directly if necessary. ”

Someone has already thought about the sales microscope. Considering that this kind of thing can't be played to the extent that everyone has one hand like a forum. It is a research device in its own right, and there are very few people who need it exactly. Instead of taking the route of affordable price and small profits but quick turnover, it is better to take the high-end and high-price customized route with complete functions and convenient use. If you sell him one, you have to earn him one.

On the other hand, it is also to open up a source of wealth for the silverbeard dwarves.

Considering the four rebellious children who ran away from home, they now rely on someone for food and clothing. Admittedly, they also helped a lot during the journey. However, many of the projects that have recently begun to repair the peace armed forces are research and development activities that require financial support.

For this part, Lin wanted to help without an upper limit, including the part of the funds. Even if you don't have enough in front of you, you can still make it up if you find a way to squeeze it. But perhaps it was the means of seizing the airship Sid that made a few dwarves wary. So they prefer to find their own way to make money, to master as much as possible everything about the peaceful armed forces, and not to let someone interfere too much in the dominance.

Lin didn't have much to say about this. The idea of this set of power armor was originally a casual fate. The attitude of the silverbeard dwarf made him feel that it was a lot easier.

Originally, they hoped to find a way to make money in the Holy City with their skills, so as to support the improvement and research of the peace armed forces. But these simple young men from the countryside are not suitable for living in human cities. Let them go out on their own, and in only three days, they almost sold themselves......

So after discussing with the four of them, it was decided to maintain the current relationship. It's still someone who arranges their work, and the proceeds from selling their products depend on the situation. Part of the proceeds goes to the Peace Armed Forces research funding, and food and lodging are still supported by someone. After all, this was the condition for taking them away in the first place to exchange their craft.

Perhaps the Silverbearded Dwarves can be classified as less creative than Earth's technological advances, but the technology for crafting delicate objects is unspeakable, unlike their dwarven relatives. Although the dwarves have the skills, they don't like to make such delicate items, so naturally there is a gap between them and the royal family among these dwarves.

So for the fact that he can still master the skills of the silverbeard dwarf, someone still says the same thing: no objection.

The first product that the Silverbeard Dwarf launched was this integrated microscope. The price is 2,000 gold, of course, it is a lion's big mouth. But this is a unique business and product, and people who need it will definitely not be the kind of poor ghost who can't even eat, so someone can feel at ease.

It's just that two thousand gold is not a small amount of money for a wealthy magician. The association's offer for forbidden spells is about the same amount. So it can be seen that when someone's offer comes out, there are many old magicians with embarrassed faces.

But someone would like to say that forbidden spells still have to be learned and pondered, and they may not be able to use them once in a lifetime. The microscope is fully functional, and you can use it when you buy it. What to consider!

But those words are too warpy, and it's easy for people to get down the stairs. So Lin took out the plan and said: "Of course, whether the thing is suitable or not, it is better for everyone to evaluate and evaluate again, and don't make a decision too early." If you need it for the time being, you can borrow this set from the academy and familiarize yourself with how to use it. Otherwise, you can try to make your own. ”

Kabanbai asked, "Make it yourself?" What do you mean? ”

"The blueprints and magic formations that are the centerpiece of the microscope, the magic device that I call the 'Microscopic Eye', have been handed over to the Guild some time ago. The price I set is C Kiel (100 gold), and as long as the association approves it, everyone can get it from the association. Then you can make your own device that suits your habits. Because I am also a person with quirks, I know that some things are not made by myself, and it is inevitable that there will be some unease. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, several old magicians couldn't sit still and wanted to run to Tower I. It is the headquarters of the Wizards' Guild, a place dedicated to the sale of magical knowledge from the Society's collection. However, as soon as the old and serious Kabanbai spoke, the others couldn't leave. "Lord Tripwood, what is the difference between the microscopic eye you mentioned and this microscope?"

Lin thought for a moment and said seriously: "The microscopic eye is the most core part, but the operation is very simple. In the past, everyone used to operate the Arcane Eye, and the Microscopic Eye was a similar method. Many of the additional functions were made by Fen in his later research, and he felt that he could use them. Therefore, the whole microscope device can be said to be part of her hard work and achievements. The ease of operation is even more difficult to compare. ”

After Lin finished speaking, at the end, he added: "Some of the small magic I created during this time, which is quite convenient to use, I have also handed it over to the association." Including whiteboard pen those. ”

Everything that should be said has been said, everything that should have been known is known, the people in the classroom exchanged a few words, and several old magicians, including Priest Batu, confessed and left in a hurry.

Lin also wants to use the flashing technique to leave, but it will be his own math lesson later. Although the flashing technique is very convenient, running back and forth is not a solution, the main reason is that the mentality cannot be changed, so I simply stayed and walked towards the large classroom of the math class, accompanied by the great magician Kabanbai. This old man was so polite, frankly, it made someone a little panicked.

But considering that one of the founders of the academy he left behind, and a good friend of Kabambai, the great magician Bijan, was now surrounded by the remaining mages in the classroom, 'discussing' the right to use the only microscope of the Lost Ground Edition. Someone thinks that the old magician around him has thrown the mess to others......

It's no wonder that when the old man knew that someone was going to go to the math classroom, he was so conscientious that he had to give someone a trip himself. It's not enough to refuse.

Although there is a difference in age, Kabambai's respect is unpretentious, and it is the same before and after people. Lin couldn't help but admire such a performance. If you are yourself, can you face a person younger than yourself so freely?

But the old man, in addition to learning, also loves some gossip. On the way to the math classroom, the Grand Magician Kabanbay asked, "Your Excellency, in the class of life just now, Her Excellency Fen Ni seemed to be very dissatisfied with her past subordinates, do you know the reason for this?" ”

This is a private matter of the lich, and according to the division, someone should not open this mouth. But the subversive truth of Finn's past is known to people in today's world...... It doesn't seem to be anything, but it helps to ease the misunderstanding of her. So Lin thought about it seriously, and decided to talk about the history that he learned from Fen's mouth that was different from what the world knew.
