My Magic Age

After the onset of winter, the daily magic items such as exhaust fans, air conditioners, and refrigerators in the rune board workshop entered the off-season. Orders for refrigerators finally no longer required the forty-five-day supply cycle as before, and air conditioners With some inventory of exhaust fans, Murray merged the air conditioning assembly line and exhaust fan assembly line into one production line. The rune board workshop began to mass-produce copper hot pots, new ovens, and energy-saving magic without any technical content. Table lamps and simple magic table lamps.

The number of woodshops and coppersmiths that have cooperated with the rune plate workshop has increased to more than two dozen. The North Duisburg blacksmith shop is still our main supplier of rune plate blanks. Of course, as the orders gradually increase, My order has become one of the largest buyers of the blacksmith shop in North Duisburg. After seeing this big cake, other blacksmith shops in the imperial capital also approached Murray to get in.

For this reason, Count Robert, the boss of North Duisburg, even made a special trip to visit my home and signed a purchase plan with me for next year’s rune plate blanks.

After His Majesty Charles confirmed that I am a Neflandian, the Royal Family of Angel Bould recognized my relationship with Ying Li. I occasionally attend dances held by the upper-class nobles of the imperial capital. It is impossible to be a person in such social situations. Simply dancing and tasting food, many nobles also have their own industries in the imperial capital. Some noble lords here control mines, farms, pastures, and forest farms in a certain plane. They not only occupy certain upstream industries, but even own Complete industrial chain.

Of course, there are also aristocratic lords like Marquis Ludwig who have a monopoly in a certain industry. Marquis Ludwig controls the largest magic crossbow workshop in the imperial capital.

There are other nobles who control large-scale magic industries such as magic caravans, magic airships, magic cannons, and magic catapults. Some nobles came into contact with me and suggested to me that I should not just focus on making low-level magic rune boards, but should be appropriately exposed to high-end magic rune boards. Magic rune industry, such as the runes on the chassis of the magic caravan For magic circle seal engraving processing, such as the processing of the floating device on the magic airship, etc., they can provide me with the corresponding rune plate drawings. Of course, magic weapons such as the magic cannon and the magic catapult, which are high-level secrets of the Green Empire, are not available yet. People are willing to share the craft drawings of this kind of magic pattern array with others.

However, I also admit that I can only make the lowest-end magic rune boards at the moment. Even if it is the main magic device on the magic caravan and the magic airship, I currently have no way to take orders for production. However, regarding the weight reduction device of the magic caravan , the water collection devices used for drinking water and daily bathing on caravans and airships can still be customized. The price of such magic items is only half the price of similar products currently on the market.

The rune board workshop in the seventh block is now more like an assembly and distribution center. All prepared parts are transported from the warehouse in the imperial capital to the rune board workshop. Murray usually formulates the processing plan one day in advance. The order will be delivered to Betty in the evening. Betty will prepare the relevant parts that night and arrange a truck to be delivered to the Rune Board Workshop early the next morning. All areas of the Rune Board Workshop are work areas. The assembled daily magic items were moved directly to the truck waiting in line at the door.

At present, these life-like magic items in the rune board workshop alone allow me to earn about two thousand gold coins a day. The giant crossbow arrows and holy silver crossbow arrows are basically retained because of the dual attribute arrows. I sell those alone. The daily production volume of attribute magic arrows is about 5,000. After deducting the cost, the daily income on the book is even less than 500 gold coins. However, in this case, more than a thousand dual attribute magic crossbow arrows can be stocked every day.

In other words, now that the Rune Board Workshop is in full operation, it has brought me an income of 500 magic crystals every day. In addition, there is also the income from the magic pattern spider silk ingots produced by the silk reeling workshop in Xinliu Valley. , the income from the magic herbs in the Xinliu Valley Round Valley Herbal Garden and the Nameless Island Magic Herb Plantation, and the daily transaction volume of Qige Trading Company has also been rising recently.

Since magic engraving eliminates the cost of hiring inscription masters to inscribe manually, for me there is a huge profit margin for these primary rune boards. However, I am worried that the Imperial City Magic Guild will intervene and dare not lower the price of the rune boards. The selling price must at least show that it is a competitor on the surface with other rune board workshops, showing the attitude of a market monopoly that would rather burn money to ensure market share.

…

Shirley Newman was wearing a plain suspender nightgown and wooden slippers. She sat on a small chair by the fireplace, holding her chin with one hand, boiling water and making lemon tea for us.

Vernon and I were sitting in Noah's dormitory. It was only today that I found out that Noah and Shirley Newman were actually living together in the dormitory, and the dormitory administrator also had a tacit attitude.

The three of us gathered in front of Noah's desk. The things on the desk were arranged neatly. The magic notebooks spread out were all Shirley Newman's notes. Under the expectant eyes of the two of them, I read from the magic notebook. He took out a white money bag from his pocket and placed it on the desk, and opened the mouth of the bag to reveal yellow and orange gold coins inside.

Senior Vernon couldn't help but reach out and pour out all the gold coins in the bag. The gold coins collided with each other and slipped out of the bag, making a crisp sound of 'ding, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong.

More than six hundred gold coins were piled up like a hill on the table. Senior Vernon was a little dumbfounded. He had probably forgotten how sad he felt when he saw Senior Erica at the door of the bar. He couldn't help but ask me: " These are just the dividends from the 'Lava Surge' Magic Oven between me and Noah in the past two months. Isn't it because you gave all the income from the oven to me and Noah?"

I shook my head and said calmly to Senior Vernon and Noah: "It's really so much. In addition, regarding the actual income of the magic oven, I hope you can keep it secret for me. I don't want these data to be disclosed by the Magic Guild and Inscriptions." The union people know.”

Senior Vernon scratched his hair hard and said to Noah with a ferocious expression: "Is the magic rune board business really so profitable? Noah, why don't we just get rid of Jijia and do it ourselves, and he will share it with us?" We have so much money with 10% bonus, I think if we open a magic rune board workshop in the imperial capital, we will definitely be more comfortable than you going to Galapagos City to be a consul. "

Seeing Senior Vernon's eyes red, Noah said angrily: "You'd better help me think about how to apply the mixed magic I designed to life. I think it's like inventing the 'Lava Surge' oven. Likewise, it would be good to invent more magic items related to daily life and get bonuses like this. Open a rune board workshop. Don’t you think Ivan and Diego have fallen hard enough?”

When Senior Vernon heard what Noah said, he immediately woke up. He found a water glass from the desk, poured himself a glass of cold water and poured it into his stomach. After shivering all over, he said to Noah: "Then Let’s find some time to introduce the automatic garden irrigation system we designed to Jijia?”

Nuoyan waved his hand and said to Senior Vernon: "Forget it, Jijia doesn't like this kind of magic design for nobles. He likes magic design for common people."

I sat aside and said with a smile: "You don't want to modify the watering system of the rooftop garden of Emerald Bay Trading Company, do you? How much money did Louis give you, but Noah is right, I only focus on civilian life Magic items."

The kettle on the fireplace was emitting white steam. Shirley Newman took the kettle out of the fire and made us tea while wearing anti-scald gloves.

"Well, it seems that Noah understands you." Senior Vernon said.

"But having said that, is there any news about Louis recently?" I asked Noah.

Noah helped Shirley Newman get the cup, turned around to the cabinet on the wall and replied: "When they first arrived in the multi-dimensional Ahn'Qiraj, their army suffered some hardships. Louis wrote a few days ago that he relied on bed crossbows. and terrain advantages, the current situation has stabilized, and the Mo Army and Qiyan City's The commanders of the Kes Army have exerted their efforts and won several small battles in succession. His Royal Highness Crown Prince Charles's Royal Constructed Knights and the remaining forces of the Babington family in Ahn'Qiraj are gathering. At the end of this month, many Ahn'Qiraj soldiers All the legions on the surface will fight a big battle with those Naqma people."

"Okay, if you haven't replied to Louis yet, then tell him in the letter that there is anything else I need to do in terms of logistics. Just let him ask. If there is anything missing before the big battle, I will prepare it as soon as possible!" I said to him. Noah said, Louis gave me a lot of help when I first arrived in the imperial capital.

Noah held the wall cabinet with one hand and said to me with emotion: "Hey, Jijia, your brother is much more qualified than me."

…

It has always been Scholar Francis from the Imperial Academy of Magic who has provided me with red copper magic solution and thorium solution. However, the demand for these metal solutions has been too high recently, which has seriously affected Scholar Francis’s research on magic. If it weren’t for my hands, I have mastered the formula for refining the No. 5 Crazy Potion and has enough demon blood. I am afraid that Scholar Francis would have kicked me away.

Scholar Francis has always wanted to sell me the cosolvent formula directly in exchange for Qige’s No. 5 Crazy Potion. As Qige told me before leaving, I must not pass on the formula of No. 5 Crazy Potion, so I have never agreed to Scholar Francis. , and finally Scholar Francis and I finally agreed on a condition, that is, if I still supply him with three bottles of No. 5 Crazy Potion every month, then he is willing to sell me the metal solution formula.

Scholar Francis is a great alchemist. I got his metal solution formula and I can't refine the metal solution immediately. I need to hire another alchemist or learn alchemy myself and then refine these metal solutions myself. But I But I don’t have this time. I heard from Noah that Senior Vernon is very interested in alchemy. When Erica first entered school, Senior Erica happened to be the vice-president of the Potions Club, so Senior Vernon resolutely gave up his preferred alchemy and studied magical herbalism at the Royal Academy of Magic for two years. After his sister graduated, he left the Magic Potion Club of the Royal Academy of Magic and spent all day doing nothing.

Shirley Newman was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes, hanging on Noah like a sloth. I suggested we talk tomorrow if we have anything to say, but Senior Vernon seemed to be distracted by Senior Erica and Hailibu at night. The excitement was great, the conversation was lively, and Noah seemed energetic and refused to sleep.

"Senior Vernon, have you ever thought about taking the alchemist qualification exam?" I think Senior Vernon asked.

Senior Vernon has become very close to Noah recently, and he has successfully joined our small circle. Senior Vernon is a top student in magic who came from a civilian family.

Senior Vernon smiled shyly at me and said, "I have obtained the junior alchemist qualification certificate a long time ago, but I have never gone to the Alchemy Guild to hang out. You suggest that I join the Alchemy Guild after graduating from the Royal Academy of Magic. Become a professional alchemist?”

Noah opened his mouth wide, stared at Senior Vernon, and asked him: "Uh... you are actually an alchemist? Then when we transformed elemental water a few days ago, why didn't you say you were an alchemist?"

Faced with Noah's questioning, Senior Vernon smiled and said in defense: "You didn't ask me. Besides, I'm not very skilled in the highly professional operation of transforming elemental water. The failure rate is ridiculously high. It's better to ask professionals to do it than to transform it myself."

"You're just lazy!" Noah finally defined Senior Vernon like this.

"Hehe." Senior Vernon smiled and acquiesced.

After they finished laughing, I asked Senior Vernon solemnly: "I have two alchemy formulas for magic metals. I'm thinking of asking someone to help me refine some magic metals. Do you want to try it?"

Senior Vernon asked me in surprise: "Aren't you afraid that I will mess up all your magic metals?"

I shook my head and said: "I need a lot of it. It doesn't matter if I fail. If I fail, it's my fault."

"It's good that you're not afraid of failure. I'll take over this matter." Senior Vernon agreed readily when he saw me say this.

I put my hands on the table, with two magic parchments under my palms. I stared at Senior Vernon's eyes and said seriously: "I have two points to make in advance. These two alchemical formulas cannot be passed on. We need to sign a magic contract for this. In addition, you may be very busy in the future, but before I find a new suitable alchemist, you must help me hold on."

"That's no problem. These two parchments are the alchemical formulas?" Senior Vernon looked at the two parchments curiously and asked.

I nodded and let go of my hand.

He picked up the two alchemical formulas from the table, took a look at them, and stood up from the chair in a whirl. He suppressed his excitement and whispered to me: "The formula for refining red copper metal solution... My God, are you really going to let me learn this? Do you know that countless alchemists in the magic market are now looking for this magic formula everywhere? This formula has been offered at a sky-high price. I didn't expect it to be in your hands. Yes, I should have thought that this formula is yours..."

"You want me to refine magic metal solution?" He asked.

I nodded...
