Chapter 92: Open up business opportunities
The arduous practice of spells has imposed a great burden on Joan’s spirit and body. Mental fatigue can still be alleviated by meditation and sleep. Long-term lack of physical exercise will seriously damage health, resulting in weaker and weaker bodies. It is easy to contract diseases when the season changes.
Joan lost five pounds after studying a week of sleep and forgetting the spell. His thin body was thinner, he could be blown down by a strong wind, and his skin color became morbid pale due to long-term lack of light. Past experience tells Joan that if he continues to live this way of life, he may fall ill. It is necessary to temporarily put down the book and do some work that is more dependent on physical strength-not the brain-to regulate diet and work and exercise well. The stage of study builds a healthy foundation.
When Joan usually needed to exercise, he took Jamie to go to the back mountain to hunt. Now I can see that the forest hunting work has Grey to take the lead. I can’t use it much by myself. I would rather try some more technical work, such as Create a magic device.
There are so many magic items in the world of Vales. When people evaluate the quality of a magic guide, they often use two conventional standards. The first is to see that the magic level applied by this magic guide at the time of manufacture is a few rings, and the second is to see that the manufacturing cost of the magic guide is converted into a money price geometry, the two complement each other, and the higher the magic level of the applied magic guide, Its cost is often higher.
According to the above two unwritten standards, the magic weapon of the world of Vales can be divided into five grades: secondary, intermediate, advanced, legendary and artifact. The spell level of the secondary magic guide is not more than 3 rings, and the cost is generally not more than 5000 gold coins; the spell level of the intermediate magic guide is not more than 6 rings, the cost is generally not more than 50000 gold coins, and the spell of the advanced magic guide is The level is not more than 9 rings, and the cost is usually not higher than 500,000 gold coins; legendary magic guides and artifacts are very rare, and they are rarely sold on the magic guide market. The average person has no way of knowing how the legendary magic guides and artifacts are made Of course, there is of course no cost-making cost for reference. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a "priceless treasure".
Joan is just a 2nd-level mage, and the enchantment funds available to him are pitifully small. Regardless of the standard of spell-casting ability or financial resources, he can only try to manufacture the lowest-level products in the "secondary magic guide". For example, "Human Shield"...
Poverty makes people sensible, Qiao An has no spare money and free feelings to make "human face shield" and other works that are not considered marketable and are purely self-entertainment. His ideal works must first be practical and secondly have commercial value that can be quickly realized. .
After careful consideration, Joan finally set his target on one of the local souvenirs in Delin Town-"leather goods".
...
Two days later, Qiao An, with a letter written in advance, pushed the door of the leather shop in Delin with a sense of suffering.
There were no other guests in the leather goods store in the early morning. Mr. Longfellow had just had breakfast and was whistling to clean. Seeing Joan walk in, he greeted him warmly and sat down to drink tea, and cast a curious look on his face.
Joan guessed that Mr. Longfellow was observing his right eye covered by a blindfold. He was secretly calculating how to explain the matter, but the other party actively asked him about fighting with Soul Stealer. After some questions and answers, Joan learned that the owner of the leather goods store had heard about his experience from Aunt Barbara.
Enthusiastic aunt Barbara has a big mouth that can never be idle, but whenever you hear something new, you will always be able to wait and tell the neighbors and the neighbors. News of fighting with the evil goblin that blinded his right eye has spread throughout Delin.
It's not a pleasant experience to be the topic of someone's tea after dinner. Joan used to be known as a lonely and eccentric town, coupled with the mystery brought by the mage profession, he was regarded as alien by the townspeople. Now he wears an eye mask and his image has become commensurate with his character, becoming a real one in people’s eyes. "monster". When walking on the road, people often stop and watch, and look at him with sympathy or disgust. When the children see him from afar, they turn their heads to avoid it.
Joan doesn't care about people's strange eyes. He is regarded as a "monster" but brings him more cleanliness. He doesn't have to waste time for social entertainment, and can devote all his energy to what he likes. Of course, no one can achieve absolute surviving independence. Joan occasionally communicates with others and even asks for help. Just like today, he has to walk out of his little world and come to visit Mr. Longfellow.
Longfellow saw Joan enter the door and thought he was going to sell prey fur. When Joan offered to carry out "in-depth cooperation" with him, he raised his eyebrows in surprise, and asked with half joking and half curiosity: "Mr. Master, how should I At your service?"
"Mr. Longfellow, I have heard you say that cleaning fur coats and wool fabrics is a very troublesome thing?" Joan asked quietly.
"It is true, if fur products are contaminated with oil sludge, it is difficult to clean with cold water, and it cannot be soaked with hot water. It is not only troublesome to clean, but also uses detergents such as soap. As far as I know, Yalfheim Regions and even the entire New World cannot produce detergents specifically for cleaning high-end furs. They can only be imported from the Far East. A pack of imported detergents is included in the tariffs. The price even exceeds a good leather hat, which is basically the burden of ordinary people. I can’t afford such an expensive cleaning fee, so we have such a saying in the leather goods trading circle-Affordable, can’t afford to wash!” Longfellow smiled bitterly, “It’s because high-grade fur is not easy to clean, only those rich people I’m willing to buy. We don’t have many gangsters like Delin Town. It’s hard to open the market for high-end fur. You can see that the high-end white fox fur cloak in our store can’t be sold on the shelf for a whole year. Facade."
"If there is a way to make the fur clean automatically, it must help to open the market." Qiao An said carefully.
"That's for sure!" Longfellow's eyes suddenly lighted up, "Oh, I guessed it! You want to partner with me to open a leather cleaning shop and use magic to clean fur products, right? This is a good idea, how much worse are you? capital?"
"It's not a laundry, it's too much trouble for me." Joan pulled the envelope out of his arms and handed it to the owner of the leather goods store. "I wrote down all the ideas. You'll understand after reading it."
"Huh? Isn't it possible to chat in person? You still have to write a letter. Is it necessary to be so serious..."
The owner of the leather goods shop didn't understand Joan's quirks, shaking his head and complaining in a low voice, pulling out the stationery and browsing it again, the confusion in his eyes was quickly replaced by shock.
