Chapter 404: Trial
Elmod.
Valoka Chamber of Commerce Branch.
"President, the Skoll Chamber of Commerce has offered to let us provide them with a batch of sonar, and they want to equip it on their merchant ships. ”
Lyle Renaud, the president of the Elmod branch of the Valloca Chamber of Commerce, felt a bit of a headache, and in order to promote sonar, he single-handedly planned the New Route incident, which was not bad, but now he has no goods to sell.
Sonar is a magic equipment in the true sense, unlike a pendulum clock, which can increase the production speed by adding ordinary workers, they want to hire more mages, but unfortunately they can't, there are not so many mages in Memphelbo, and the Valoka Chamber of Commerce is not very attractive to mages.
"What are the Skoll Chamber of Commerce doing here? Do they want to get a foot in the new route? But where am I going to get sonar now? ”
Because of Jiayi's relationship, Eunice and Skoll Chamber of Commerce have a relationship, and now when the two are running in, they can be regarded as partners, and Skoll is strong, Lenaud does not want to affect the relationship between the two families.
Although on the side of the academy, Eunice and Skoll are barely on an equal footing, but when it comes to a place far away from Queenie, the Valoka Chamber of Commerce will inevitably fall behind, after all, the difference in strength is too great.
However, fortunately, the goods of the Valoka Chamber of Commerce are relatively unique, there is less competition between the two companies, and there are some complementarities, but there is no friction.
Renaud wanted to meet the requirements of the Skoll Chamber of Commerce, but now he really didn't have the ability to make sonar, because of the new route, all the sonar has been sold.
He said to the maids who had come by, "Let me go and receive them myself, and explain it to them, lest they think that we have deliberately not sold them to them." ”
While walking on the road, Renaud was thinking about the new route, and now it has been almost half a month since Leif Eriksson returned to port, and the first round of information has been sold and bought by the city lord's mansion at any cost.
Originally, I thought that because I couldn't completely monopolize it, the price would be lower, but the competition between the City Lord's Mansion and Skoll was very fierce, and the price was speculated to tens of thousands of gold coins, even because of the sinking of a ship, Eriksson made a lot of money.
Even Leno, who is the mastermind behind the scenes, is very excited, although the price of sonar is expensive, but if you want to earn tens of thousands of gold coins, you have to sell hundreds of sonar to have this possibility.
Because of the stimulation of the gold coins, the enthusiasm for finding a new route was ignited on the island of Elmod, especially after Eriksson said that they relied on the sonar of the Valoka Chamber of Commerce to avoid the many underwater reefs, and the sonar in the Chamber of Commerce was sold out, and now there is no sonar left.
This can be regarded as the happy annoyance of Renoe, he asked the general meeting to increase the supply, but it takes time for the message to be transmitted, and it also takes time for the goods to be transported, and the production of the general meeting is limited, so it is impossible to say how many goods can come to the branch.
When he arrived at the meeting room, Renaud couldn't help frowning when he saw that the person who came was actually the mage apprentice on the dock that day, if he had known that at least one mage apprentice had come over from the other party, he wouldn't have come by himself.
Renaud glared at the maid who called him, and some blamed the other party for not making it clear who the other party was from.
The mage apprentice couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw Lerneu come out in person, and at the same time a little excited, thinking that his own chamber of commerce was really amazing, and the president of the other party immediately greeted him when he heard that the chamber of commerce was coming.
The apprentice hurriedly stood up, saluted Leno, and said with a little nervousness: "Our vice president asked me to come and inquire to see if there are any sonars for sale, and if so, our chamber of commerce wants to buy a few to load on our newly made merchant ships." I didn't expect to alarm you. ”
The apprentice's tone was very respectful, in fact, he did not come as a partner, but as an ordinary customer, but Renaud took it too seriously.
After understanding, Renoe's dissatisfaction also dissipated a lot, and said to the apprentice: "At present, we do have no sonar, after Eriksson sold the news to the city lord, our sonar was bought by the city lord, and the rest of the people knew the news, almost sold out, the sonar sold to Skoll last time, we have deliberately evened out, if you still want, we must wait for our cargo ship to be transported back from the headquarters, I'm afraid it won't work without a month." ”
The headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce is in Memphelbo, and the goods must be transported through the Bell River into the sea, and then transported by sea. When Jia Yi went to the imperial capital, he took the Bell River to reach the imperial capital, and it took him more than a month to reach the imperial capital because of the countercurrent and not in a hurry.
Fortunately, the estuary of the Bell River and the mouth of the Isuvi River are not far away, and it is not necessary to go far by sea to reach Elmod.
Renaud was also a little confused, this time the Skoll Chamber of Commerce was a little too concerned about the new route, not like the usual style.
......
......
Kaichi came to the classroom with a stack of blank papers.
He placed the white paper on the podium, and the distinctive color immediately attracted several sharp-eyed students.
"Guess what this is?" a student whispered to a classmate on the side.
"White, it's a big stack, it looks a bit like parchment, but shouldn't it?
In fact, the color of the paper brought over by Jia Yi is not so white, a little beige, but compared to the parchment, this one can indeed be regarded as snow white.
"Shouldn't it be the white dragon skin?" said a student with a big brain.
"What nonsense? How could it be a white dragon skin. "This speculation was immediately despised, the white dragon skin is not the leather of the white dragon, but a kind of leather paper made of the skin of a white wurm, although it is a wurm, but it is also very precious, these students have only heard of it, and they have not even seen it.
Jia Yi also heard the speculation below, shook his head, condensed a small spark and threw it around the group of muttering students and exploded violently, and said helplessly: "What do you think? I haven't even used the white dragon skin, and I have to go bankrupt if I bring such a big stack." ”
Jia Yi asked people to send down the white paper, only one per person, after the paper was unfolded, it was about the size of a test paper, and seeing his students unfolding the "test paper" one by one, Jia Yi had a sense of intimacy, and the students below were cold, as if they were stared at by something dangerous.
However, this time Jia Yi did not prepare for the exam.
"This is a new white paper developed by the college, there is no batch output for the time being, I found some to try it out for you, white paper is much cheaper than parchment, you can change it all to white paper to write homework to me in the future." However, white paper is much more fragile than parchment, you should be standardized when writing, if there is a typo, cross it out with a horizontal line, do not scrape it with a knife, so as not to accidentally scratch the paper. ”
Kaichi instructed his students.
These blank papers are the fourth batch of paper made by the Marches, although the production speed is not fast, but after the initial hecticism, it is now much faster, and the production process has also been slightly improved, and there are almost signs of making paper for different purposes.
Kaichi felt that it was almost time, and it was time for his students to enjoy this benefit.
