Chapter 664
In fact, the magic costume doll technology was not invented by the Waitrose Empire itself, but was introduced from the city of magic.

In layman's terms, a magic doll is a bit like a "robot" in the world where Zhou Ming's body lives.

The same mechanical device can also work quickly and accurately, and as long as the energy is sufficient, it can work endlessly and so on.

However, compared with robots, magic dolls still have some differences.

First of all, since the energy comes from the "soul meditation array", theoretically speaking, as long as the magic power is not exhausted, the magic doll can work all the time and never get tired.

And after the "meditation array" is engraved, there is no need to supplement other energy sources, which can be called a "perpetual motion machine".

Secondly, the magic dolls are quite intelligent and have a certain ability to think independently, because in each magic doll, a soul is encapsulated, most of which are human souls. According to how much soul information remains, some magic dolls Some have the intelligence of a three- or four-year-old child, and some have the intelligence of a teenager...or even higher.

Therefore, it can be said that the magic doll is equivalent to a unique device of "soul parasitism" and "mechanical life". Except that the body is different from human beings, the core soul is exactly the same as human beings.

Finally, the development of magic dolls is quite controversial in public opinion.

Because generally, after death, people hope that their souls can rest in peace, and they all hope that under the guidance of God, they will ascend to heaven and enjoy wealth and honor forever in heaven.

But there are always some people who don't want to go to heaven.

There are also some evil necromancers who collect the souls of the dead and do not allow them to ascend to heaven (magic costume dolls are invented by necromancers based on the principle of skeleton soldiers, and the source of technology is not correct).

More people are willing to become magical dolls and cold machines out of the fantasy of immortality and endless nostalgia for this world.

Of course, it is not ruled out that some souls are willing to become magic dolls because of their unfulfilled wishes, huge regrets, or unjustified grievances.

In short, for the magic doll with "human soul", some people regard it as a friend, some people regard it as a tool, and some people regard it as an ominous thing... Various views are quite complicated.

Even so, in the plane of Azeroia, the magic costume doll industry has still developed.

In the Waitrose Empire alone, there are at least tens of millions of magic dolls kept in various magic academies, mage towers, factories and other institutions.

Even some magic alarm clocks used by mage families and noble families have a magic doll inside, which will remind you to get up on time every day.

So what does Zhou Ming think of the magic doll industry, which obviously violates taboos and morals?

Zhou Ming shook his head.

His views are also more complicated.

Because magic dolls have the characteristics of tool, pet, emotion, cuteness and cuteness.

In addition, there are many magical dolls with bitter hatred and deep hatred, behind which there is a tragic story of torturing the soul.

Even in the Waitrose Empire, there are many legendary stories of "The Revenge of the Magic Puppet" and "Man and the Magic Puppet in Love", providing many excellent scripts that can be made into movies.

But Zhou Ming didn't want to explore so many back stories. Anyway, the 186 magical dolls who entered his "Second Pharmacy Production Factory" were basically magic dolls who longed for immortality, were very nostalgic for this wonderful world, and had no bitterness or hatred. Dress up as a doll.

Moreover, the work efficiency of the magic doll is really high, the learning ability is strong, the operation is precise, it can accept boring work with a high repetition rate, and it has high obedience. Driven by magic runes (similar to programming languages), it can accept any request from the owner Order.

Sometimes Zhou Ming even thinks that magic dolls are easier to use and more trustworthy than highly intelligent robots in the real world.

Considering that the magic dolls have "humanity", in order to motivate them, Zhou Ming paid them wages, provided them with accessories upgrade services, and benefits such as vacations, travel and family visits.

After hearing these benefits terms.

The magic dolls were stunned.

Then there was a cheer.

"I can send my salary to my family!"

"Can we still go home and visit relatives?"

"My wooden leg has been broken for hundreds of years, it should be replaced long ago!"

"Long live the boss!"

"Long live the boss!!"

Hearing these cheers, Zhou Ming's head sweated. Aren't these magic dolls just another form of human beings?
……

After the second pharmaceutical production plant was officially put into operation.

The first batch of 30 bottles of [Tranquilization Potion], because the price is only 280 gold coins per bottle, which is equivalent to a quarter of the price of a regular pharmacy, and the quality is good, once launched, it immediately sold out.

30 bottles of [Sedative Medicine], all sold out in two days!

Excluding the cost of 50 gold coins/bottle, Zhou Ming and the others made a net profit of 6900 million gold coins.

Close to 7000 million gold coins.

Some people may think that this number is a bit small. After all, in a magical world where a mage tower costs 1000 million, a space ring costs 7000 million, and a top-level staff costs tens of millions, [-] million gold coins do not seem to have much purchasing power.

But don't forget, these 7000 million gold coins are just two days' profit.

When the production capacity of the second pharmaceutical production plant increases, the profit will be even more!
In addition, after a large number of cheap magic potions are introduced to the market, the promotion effect on magic power is undoubtedly huge.

So after learning about the specific situation, the high-level executives of the Magic Association, who attached great importance to it, distributed the rewards after some discussion.

A total of 10 contribution points were rewarded!

A full 10 million points!

This amount can be said to be quite astonishing.

You must know that according to the reward system of the Magic Association, some tasks with a higher amount of rewards only reward a few thousand contribution points.

For example, in a kingdom with a population of about 5000 million, establish a branch of the Magic Association and reward 2000 contribution points.

For example, build a magic school, so that the number of students in the school reaches 500, rewarding 3000 contribution points, and rewarding 500 points every year.

Another example is to build a space teleportation array that connects two large empires, rewarding 15000 contribution points... This is the only mission that rewards more than [-].

After Zhou Ming's pharmaceutical production factory was established, he was awarded 10 points at once.

It can be seen that the senior members of the Magic Association believe that the value and significance of the pharmaceutical production plant is no less than six teleportation arrays.

Now the magic circle in the entire Nirata City is a sensation.

Huge sensation.

So Zhou Ming was not very happy, because within half a month, 136 pharmaceutical production plants had sprung up like mushrooms after rain.

Because the Magic Association released a new task: for every potion production plant with a monthly output of more than 30 bottles of magic potion, 20000 contribution points will be rewarded.

Now countless magicians have gone crazy, and countless pharmaceutical production factories have been established.

Zhou Ming is not worried about competition. These pharmaceutical production factories without any technology, except for wasting medicinal materials, more than 99% of them will end up going bankrupt.

But he saw the ambition and determination of the Magic Association.

The ambition to cabbage the magic potion.

"A bottle of [Tranquilizing Potion] with 280 gold coins, don't you think it's too expensive? How much cabbage will you be satisfied with?"

Zhou Ming shook his head. What the Magic Association did was to cut off his money, to prevent him from getting rich.

However, he also faintly realized why the Magic Association is so urgent?

Because in the past three years (small years), only in the area under the jurisdiction of the Waitrose Empire, within a radius of 1000 million kilometers, among the 500 million small and medium-sized kingdoms, there are actually more than 1 kingdoms. , became the "Holy Kingdom of Light".

And after laying down more than 1 bases, the situation in the holy country stabilized a little bit, and these "bright holy kingdoms" began to expand abroad. Since they liberated the poor people, they were overwhelming. Almost every two or three years, Destroy a small neighboring country.

If this trend continues, within a few years, these "holy kingdoms of light" will continue to expand and spread like cancer cells, and eventually spread to the entire human world.

At that time, what kind of terrifying scene will be presented in front of the Magic Association?

According to Zhou Ming's calculations, the time left for the Magic Association is only 30 to [-] years at most.

Of course, the time left for Zhou Ming seems to be only 30 to [-] years.

From this point of view, Zhou Ming and the Magic Association are tied to the same rope.

So for Zhou Ming, he had to hurry up.

So, after the 10 contribution points were obtained.

Among them, Zhou Ming distributed 3 to his partner Reynolds.

According to the agreement, the royal family does not share contribution points.

For the remaining 7 contribution points, Zhou Ming got 4 for himself and gave 3 to Mr. Searles (as a partner, Ms. Searles will go to the Magic City with him in the future).

Only got 4 contribution points.

Zhou Ming needs at least 10 points.

There is still a difference of 6 in the middle.

He has to find a way to get more contribution points.

Of course it didn't bother him.

Not long after the second potion production plant was completed and put into operation, he joined hands with Elder Reynolds to launch an epoch-making magic potion.

This kind of potion has the general meaning of "the arrival of a lucky star" for those senior magicians, great magicians and even legendary magicians whose strength is stuck in a bottleneck and has to rely on "Manlo pollen" for a long time to achieve breakthroughs.

The name of this potion is called [Extreme Ice Super Magic Potion] (abbreviated as [Extreme Ice Potion]).

Its effect is at least ten times that of [Super Magic Potion], and it is effective for legendary mages and forbidden spell mages, and unlike Manlo pollen, it is highly addictive and less harmful to the human brain and body .

What's more, its active ingredients are synthesized with common chemicals at an astonishingly low cost.

Zhou Ming and the others believed that once [Extreme Ice Potion] was released to the market, not only would they be able to make a fortune, but they could even get more than 10 contribution points from the Magic Association!
And 【Extreme Ice Potion】is just the second big move he prepared.

He has cooperated with the Mainland Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and has reached the end of the project, and is about to release the third big move. I believe the effect will be even more sensational!
However, in order of priority, he first released [Extreme Ice Potion].

　Early release!
