Chapter 418: The Wind Rises

Skoll Chamber of Commerce.

Early in the morning, the morning mist had not yet lifted, and the door of the Skoll Chamber of Commerce was still closed, and there were already many people queuing at the entrance of the Chamber of Commerce.

If Jia Yi saw it, he would be surprised, and thought it was a new fruit machine.

"What's going on? What are so many people doing here?"

Some people on the side of the road were also puzzled, could it be that the Skoll Chamber of Commerce had some powerful magic items or some magic books for sale?

Although there are academies, magazines, and various communication channels, some specific powerful spells are still secret, and if you want to obtain them, you need to exchange them or join various organizations, and of course, you can also use Arcane Points to exchange them from the High Council.

Therefore, if there is really any powerful magic book appearing, it will also cause people to rush after it, and it is generally sold separately, and there will be no copies.

However, these things are generally auctioned, and there is rarely a queue.

It can't be a queue to buy tickets.

The man walked to the end of the line and asked the last person, "What are you lining up here so early for? What is the Skoll Chamber of Commerce selling?"

The person at the end of the line turned his head to look at each other and hesitated: "I, I don't know?"

"Huh?" the questioner was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to continue.

"I just saw so many people queuing, so I followed the queue, no matter what it was, it shouldn't be wrong to be so popular. ”

Passers-by looked at the queue at the end in surprise, this queue is still lively, it's just...

He walked forward for a while, and came to the front of the line, and it was impossible for the people here to line up so early to join in the fun.

asked the other party, and sure enough, the other party didn't come to make up the numbers, and the other party replied: "Do you know that a kind of blank paper has been popular here in the academy recently?"

"Blank paper?"

Seeing the other party's inexplicable face, it didn't seem to be clear, and the other party explained: "This is a newly developed paper from the academy, used to replace parchment, more light and cheaper, and the writing effect is good, but it has not officially started to sell yet, only the Skoll Chamber of Commerce can buy a small amount for trial, in order to be able to grab the white paper, I came to line up early." ”

"Well, why wait in line, there's nothing wrong with parchment. Passers-by were a little surprised, it was just writing paper, and it wasn't some high-end magic leather, so they didn't need to be so careful.

However, some people don't care, but some people flock to it, and just as passers-by are about to leave, they see a large group of magic apprentices rushing in front of them, and they are about to come and line up.

When the passer-by who had just asked the person saw it, the ghost made a stride, and quickly inserted it to the end in front of this group of mage apprentices, making the group of mage apprentices who were one step slower roll their eyes in unison.

As soon as he lined up in the line, the person in front of him turned around and smiled at him: "You see you went out and asked around, and it's not the same to come and line up, don't care what it is, just follow the line." ”

The passer-by said that his face was dark, and he was about to leave the team, but when he saw that there were already 7 or 8 people lined up behind him, he was a little reluctant, so he could only stand behind the other party with a black face.

After waiting for a while, almost past 8 o'clock, the door of the Chamber of Commerce finally opened.

After the door of the Chamber of Commerce was opened, no one rushed inside, and everyone was in order, not because everyone was of high quality, but because the Chamber of Commerce had warned long ago that if someone did not follow the order, they would be blacklisted and no longer do their business.

A large chamber of commerce like Skoll is so tough.

......

......

Kaichi came to Gwen's office again, and Gwen introduced a person to Kaichi.

"This is Yanel, the dean has chosen to be responsible for the preparation of the newspaper, you can discuss anything yourself, and Yanel will be in charge of the newspaper in the future. ”

Yanel greeted Jia Yi: "I have long heard of Master Jia Yi, the most prominent students of the academy in recent years, the bell tower of the academy and the elf rice are inseparable from Master Jia Yi. ”

Jia Yi was a little surprised, the other party actually knew about the elf rice, although this is not very secret, but the academy intentionally or unintentionally hid Jia Yi, not everyone can know.

Jia Yi looked at the other party carefully, he didn't have any impression, the number of mages in the academy is not much, there are only hundreds of people in total, of course he won't know all of them, but even if he doesn't know them, he should be a little familiar, for Yanel, Jia Yi didn't have any impression at all.

Jia Yi seems to have vaguely heard that the academy has its own armed forces, which are under the direct jurisdiction of the dean of the academy, but Jia Yi has never seen it. He now had some suspicions that this Yanel was the secret armed force belonging to the Academy.

Coming out of Gwenna, Yanel led Kaichi to the academy's bell tower, and he led Kai into a small house next to the bell tower, where the copier that Kaichi had returned was arranged by the wall, near the side of the bell tower.

Yanel said, "Master Jiayi, I don't have any idea about newspapers, you can tell me what you need to do. ”

Seeing that Jia Yi was very interested in the duplicator parked on the side, Yanel introduced: "This is a duplicator, which is connected to the element pool of the bell tower, so you don't have to worry about energy problems, and you can copy without interruption." ”

Jiayi also didn't expect that he would connect the duplicator to the element pool, so that there was indeed no need for another energy supply, but it was not clear whether it was a cost saving.

Although the energy of the element pool is endless, the total power is limited, and it may be better to use the energy supplied to the duplicator for other uses, but the energy supply of the element pool is continuous, and sometimes a lot of people will waste a lot if they use less. It's like a power station, you don't have enough electricity at peak times and waste it at low times.

Although he was researching movable type printing, he didn't mind using a copy machine to distribute newspapers, but he had not yet decided what he wanted to issue.

Jia Yi said to Yanel: "The newspaper thing still needs to be prepared, the newsprint on March's side has not accumulated much, you had better pay a deposit first, order a batch of paper, and I hope to find a few students to publish a questionnaire to see what people like to read now, which will be more conducive to the sales of our newspaper." It's up to you to deal with all of this. ”

Yanel nodded, but he didn't quite understand what this so-called questionnaire was all about.

......

Passers-by came out of the Skoll Chamber of Commerce with a pile of so-called white paper in their hands, not much, the size of an ordinary parchment roll, that is, the slightly larger A4. A pile of 12 sheets, the same size as the parchment paper, in addition to selling by the sheet, there is a pile of 12 sheets, and a large pile of 36 sheets of specifications.

The price of this pile of white paper is less than one-tenth of the parchment, and the size of each piece of paper is about two parchments, which is still the price that the Skoll Chamber of Commerce sells at a markup, and the cost is much lower.

He looked at the "white paper" in his hand, stretched out his nose and smelled it, there was no smell of leather, but it was snow-white and delicate, and it was very smooth to the touch.

Parchment paper and leather are different, parchment paper in order to keep smooth and smooth, the treatment process is different, so it will always retain some fishy smell, unlike leather, leather after tanning and other processes, more soft.

He hurried home, abandoning the things he had to do early in the morning, as if he had bought a new toy and couldn't wait to try it out.

He pulled out an introduction to the basics of magic, this book was relatively old, and the knowledge was a little old, he hadn't read this book for a long time.

He spread out the blank paper, drew out his pen, dipped a little ink in the inkwell, and began to copy the preface of the introduction on the white paper.

It wasn't until I wrote a full page that I nodded with satisfaction: "It seems that I still need to queue up again tomorrow and buy a little more blank paper." ”
