Studying Science in the Alternate World Chapter 194

  Chapter 194 Old Sam's Blessing

   Outside the Boxue Tower that day, the sales manager of Runwanjia Lingqi Factory failed to buy the patent copyright of the portable light.

  Although he rejected the other party, and the other party did not pester him again, Duke did not hesitate to speculate on others with the greatest malice.

  In case Wanjia Spirit Tool Factory is run, it is really necessary to start a business war.

  He had to be prepared for it.

   "Kleinda, the director of the Observation Tower, is a 3-ring arcane mage; Aziguli, the director of the legal affairs department of the Boxue Tower, is also a 3-ring arcane mage...these two are the main arcane mages behind the Runwanjia Spirit Tool Factory...the scale is not small."

  Basically, the scale of Runwanjia Spirit Tool Factory is at the same level as Shenjiao City Hotel.

  Facing a company of this size, Duke must challenge within the rules and be cautious in words and deeds, otherwise it will be quite troublesome if the other party finds a loophole.

"certainly."

   "Now that the giant of light is still a baby, the other party may not really care about it. Maybe it will only attract the attention of the other party when the giant of light grows to a certain size."

   On the second day, the R&D Department of the Light Giant Spirit Tool Company sent two sets of sample products of headlamps, miner's lamps and portable lamps.

  All are old craftsmen with exquisite skills, purely handmade, and the texture is quite thick.

   "Practice makes perfect, this polishing skill is much better than mine." Duke sighed, then picked up one of the sets of headlights and miner's lamps, and walked out of the office.

   knocked on the door of the office next door.

   "Your Excellency Duke." Kiria's assistant Jiss opened the door, "Come in, what do you want?"

   "Is Kiria there, I have something to do with her."

   "I'm here, I'll inform the lady right away." The area where Jisi is located is outside the office, so she has to go through a door to see Kylia.

   Soon Kiriya invited Duke into the office inside: "It's rare to see you here, Duke, would you like coffee or tea?"

   "No need, I just had a full stomach." Duke didn't ink, and directly put the things in his hands on the table, "I opened a company myself, the Light Giant Spirit Tool Company, these are the products of my company that will be launched soon, I will give it to you to have a look."

   "Are you still starting your own company?" Kylia was a little surprised. In her eyes, Duke is an image of being devoted to academics and not caring about world affairs.

   "Business around, to earn some living expenses." Duke smiled, and took out the headlamp and miner's lamp to demonstrate, "This is the main lamp of our company. The headlamp is mainly worn on the head, so that you can free your hands when working at night, and it is especially convenient to work in the mine."

  The miner's lamp is similar, except that there are more ways to fix the miner's lamp, which can be carried, carried, hung, or worn.

   "These two lamps are absolutely necessary to go down the mine. Maybe you can consider them in the mines of Hippidil Mine Company in this area."

  Kilia listened to Duke's promotion, reached out and brushed the wavy blond hair beside her ear, and said, "So you came to sell me products. I think these two lamps are very interesting, but I have never come into contact with the family business."

   "Haha, it doesn't matter, I just gave it to you to try. If you think it's good, you can meet the management staff of Hebedi someday, just mention it casually."

  Duke gave Ji Liya lamps and lanterns, based on the principle of making one pole if there is no date.

  After all, the Nutao family is the largest shareholder of Hebbidi Ling Mining Company. At the same time, the Nutao family owns many minerals in this area, and they can use headlamps and miner's lamps.

  As the newly promoted Arcane Mage of the Rage Family, Kiriya will come into contact with these businesses sooner or later, or the people in charge of the business.

   As he spoke, Duke introduced the portable light again.

   This portable lamp is built-in, small and exquisite, and looks cool: "If headlamps and miner's lamps are required for work, then this portable lamp, I think you will need it even if you are Kyriya. It has a built-in storage card and can be charged anytime, anywhere."

   "It's really convenient." Kiriya took a portable lamp and looked around, "It's much easier than carrying a spiritual lamp."

   "You turn the lamp head, yes, that's the position." Duke said.

  Kiliya turned the head of the lamp, and suddenly found that the beam of light from the portable lamp was no longer a straight line, but spread out.

  A surprised expression appeared on her pretty face.

  Duke appreciated it while explaining: "The aperture can be adjusted, so that the portable light can take into account both long-distance lighting and short-distance lighting, and adjust it according to the needs. Whether it is walking or waking up at night, I believe it is more useful than the spirit light."

   After a pause, Duke added: "It's daytime now, and the effect is not obvious yet. You can try again at night."

   "I can already feel the benefits of it. This is indeed a great invention." Kiria said happily, "I will keep all these lamps for a try. If I have the opportunity, I will help you recommend it to your family."

   "Thank you, I will treat you to dinner another day."

   "You are too polite, it's easy to do."

   Without much conversation, Duke took his leave politely.

  Replacing it with the same self in his previous life, when Duke sees the beauty he likes, he will definitely talk about it with a cheeky face. But this is not the interest in this life. Compared with studying spiritual mysteries and doing business to make money, beauty can only be ranked third.

   Jiss sent Duke out of the office door, and when she came back, she saw Kylia fiddling with the headlamp, and she couldn't help but said, "I really misjudged, thinking that Your Excellency Duke will devote himself to academic research like Leadman's mentor."

   "It's normal, Duke is an arcane mage from the bottom, and he has more urgent needs to improve his life."

   "Miss, do you think anyone will buy this kind of lamp?"

   "Sure, the inventor's idea is very good. You see, after wearing this headlamp on the head, it completely frees your hands." Kylia put the headlamp on her big wavy blonde hair. The elegant image was completely destroyed by the headlamp, but it gave a little more life.

   "It's ugly to wear," Jiss said.

   "Ordinary people may not mind, but if I had to choose, I would choose to wear it when I work at night."

  Take off the headlight, Kiria continued: "Aunt Jiss, please put it away for me, and I will give it to my father later."

   "Miss, you are so friendly to your colleagues, and you are willing to help them sell products." Jisi praised.

   "But it's really convenient, isn't it? I think it can really improve the efficiency of work." Kiria said realistically, "And look at this portable lamp, it can really replace the spirit lamp. When it comes to the market, I suggest that Aunt Jiss buy one too."

   "If it is your suggestion, Miss, I will buy it."

the other side.

  Duke, who played a shot in the spirit of whether he has a date or not, asked Mu Lali to go to the Erwin Tower and make an appointment to visit Erwin.

  Kilia is just a spare tire. Duke doesn't really believe that a little girl from a big aristocratic family can dictate the family business. You must know that the Earl of Raging Waves family has been divided into many branches, and the blood between each branch has long been weak.

   Duke's real hope is Erwin.

  This earth mage who has the title of a true polymath can really see the value of portable lamps and headlights, and he also has enough authority to facilitate the purchase of Hebbit Spirit Mine Company.

   "But then again, Erwin has a lot to do every day, can this small business be considered by him?"

   "It doesn't matter, as long as you can win him a compliment, it's worth it."

   In the afternoon, Mu Lali returned from the Learning Tower and brought an appointment message: "Master Erwin is not in the Learning Tower, and his secretary will help you communicate the appointment request. You need to wait until Lord Erwin returns to confirm the time."

   "Then just wait." Duke nodded.

   Then he said: "Let your aunt go to Sheshou Town later, and talk to your father about the purchase needs of Sheshou Town."

  Light Giant Spirit Tool Company's products already have big customers before they go on the market.

  At least Sheshou Town under the rule of the Black Snake family will provide orders immediately, and Youshi Clothing Company will also purchase a batch of lamps.

   "My mother sent a letter, saying that my father has been contacted, and the family will support the giant of light as much as possible."

   "The Black Snake family is my close comrade-in-arms."

  Duke squeezed Mu Lali's face with some emotion, and then felt that the touch seemed not as good as before.

  The Black Snake family doesn't know whether because of their blood, most of the female members have oval faces.

  Beautiful is beautiful, but not enough meat.

   "I don't know what it feels like to pinch Kylia Nutao's slightly baby-fat face." The thought flashed, and Duke threw it out.

   After getting off work, the shuttle shuttles through the streets and alleys.

  Every day, Duke will let the driver Royce drive along different streets to browse the cultural scenery of the entire Shenjiao City, instead of following a fixed route and repeating the same scenery countless times.

  Suddenly.

  Duke saw a familiar figure in the streets and alleys.

   "Stop!"

  The shuttle stopped at the sound, and Duke looked out through the car window, but there were no familiar figures in the streets or alleys.

   "Sir, what's wrong?" Mu Lali didn't know why.

   "Nothing." Duke shook his head and rolled up the window again, thinking that his eyes might be blurred and he didn't care.

  The shuttle spewed out a stream of air, and it sped up again.

  When the shuttle disappeared without a trace, two people, one old and one young, walked out of the shop in the alley, and stood fixedly at the entrance of the alley, looking at the street where there was no shuttle.

   "Grandpa, why are you hiding?"

   "Because grandpa met an acquaintance, but he was embarrassed to see him." The old man shook his head, and pulled his grandson back to his community quickly.

  The community has a nice view, and they are all townhouses.

  The grandson yelled when he got home: "Grandpa met an acquaintance today who was riding a shuttle! The shuttle is so cool, can our family afford it?"

   "Riding a shuttle?" The old man's son raised his eyebrows and asked excitedly, "Dad, the only person you know who can fly a shuttle is Lord Duke, right?"

   "Your dad and I know a lot of great people!"

   "Come on, you are always bragging about your son. You have been running a card repair shop in Sheshou Town for half your life. I am afraid that the arcanist has never seen many of them."

"snort!"

   "Just tell your son, isn't it Master Duke?"

  The old man was the original owner of Little Sam's repair card shop, Old Sam. Hearing this, he sighed and answered after a while: “It's Duke.”

   "Hey, why didn't you say hello to him? What's wrong with meeting him and saying hello? That's Master Arcane Master!" The son looked annoyed, "You don't want to let you go to him, you can always meet him on the road!"

   "What do you know!" Old Sam snapped.

   "I don't understand why, didn't you just earn a fortune from him for the patent, he is the master of the arcanist, and you still care about this?"

   "Show face, you, I feel guilty for Duke. Back then, I even sold 1,500 gold dragons for the patina technique before I got this big house like a townhouse." Old Sam shook his head, "I gave him ten gold dragons, and sent him away."

   "I know that... But what happened to 10 gold dragons? Didn't you say that he only needed 5 gold dragons at that time? You doubled it for him, but it wasn't enough. It's up to you to make more money. Didn't you even give it to the card repair shop?"

   "I earned my skills, but I owed my conscience."

  Old Sam ignored his son, and said to himself: "I couldn't wait to buy a big house in Shenjiao City when I got the money, and I bought a house for your sister, and then used the money to do business with you. I didn't think about Duke at all, and I was even afraid that he would come to pester me, so I didn't even tell him the address."

  He looked at his son with a solemn tone: "If Duke stays in Snakeshou Town all his life, nothing will happen, but he is now a master of arcane masters... Tell me, I used 10 golden dragons to take his patent, what would he think?"

  The son muttered, "Isn't that what he wanted to sell?"

   "He was willing to buy it, and he didn't look for me again after he was promoted to an arcane mage, but if I really saw him, would I have to take out the money?" Old Sam looked full of hatred, "How dare you earn the money of an arcane mage? You are not greedy enough!"

  The son shrank his head and said with a sneer: "That's not enough, right? Our family's money is all spent, how can we get it out..."

   "So, just do your small business honestly, don't always think about clinging to the powerful, what is your status, and what is my status, can you be qualified to cling to the powerful!"

   "Oh, but Dad, this is the only chance for our family!"

   "Stop shouting at chance, what you and I have to do now is to wish Duke to go higher and higher, to a height where we can't see his back, and then completely forget me, the old guy who made money from him, so that our family's money can be kept."

  After Old Sam finished speaking, he lay on the sofa a little tired.

  The voice was low and sighed: "How could I know that Duke was really promoted to the Arcane Master. At the beginning, he boasted that he had the talent of a polymath, but it was really true for me..."

  Duke had forgotten about old Sam.

  Although he has always been grateful to old Sam in his heart.

   But old Sam didn't leave him the address in the city, so he understood what the other party meant.

  So when Fei Shuo passed by the alley, he saw a figure that looked like Old Sam. He just stopped to take a look, and didn't get out of the car to look for it.

   But this also gave him an idea.

   When he successfully made an appointment with Erwin Earth Arcane Mage, when he went to the Tower of Learning, he asked the exclusive guide to check for himself. "Continuous slurry supply technology...Okay, I will help you find similar patented technologies."

   Immediately Duke entered Erwin's office.

  Erwin has his own Mage Tower, but as the chief director of the Learning Tower, he basically stays in the Learning Tower all year round.

   "Lord Erwin."

   "Sit." Erwin still looked like a kind old man, "Why do you want to meet me? Are you planning to come to Boxue Tower to work?"

   "I haven't made up my mind yet. I'm calling on you today because I'm a newcomer. I want to ask you, a veteran of natural history."

   "Oh, what to ask?"

   "The lamps I invented." Duke took out a few samples such as portable lamps and headlamps. "From your perspective, can you tell me whether these lamps have market value, and can they sink to the bottom of the people and seek one or two benefits for the common people?"

  The purpose of the Erudition Tower is to spread the achievements in the field of spiritual mysteries to the bottom of society.

  Duke is putting a layer of skin on the lamps so that they can be **** from a moral perspective.

   "I have seen your patent, combined with the lamps you brought, I can see that it has a certain value, and it should be able to sink to the bottom of the folk." Erwin played with the lamps seriously, and came to his conclusion, "It's a big trick."

  Duke rejoiced: "I opened a company, the Light Giant Spirit Tool Company, which specializes in the production of various lamps to bring light to the people at the bottom."

   "This is a good thing."

   "So, if you think these lamps are good, maybe Heibideling Mine Company can purchase a batch and send a signal, and it will be convenient to quickly promote this lamp to the bottom of society." Duke continued to hold the banner of benefiting the people.

  Erwin smiled without saying a word, narrowed his eyes after a while, and said: "You little doll, you have a very flexible mind, and your idea is all on me."

   "My lord, you are the beacon of Heijiaohe natural history. I am interested in making a career in natural history, so I naturally want to get your guidance."

  Erwin has long been immune to this level of flattery.

   Did not answer directly, but said with a smile: "As long as the lamps are really valuable, I believe ordinary people will make the right choice. I have lived in the tower for too long...Of course, I will say hello to the purchasing department of Hebedi."

  Hearing the last sentence, Duke knew he was stable: "Thank you, my lord!"

   "You are a promising young man. You must make persistent efforts in the field of natural history. After graduation, there will be a place for you in the Learning Tower."

"I will."

   Having got a satisfactory result, Duke didn't delay Irwin's time any longer, and quickly got up to say goodbye and left the Tower of Learning.

  After getting on the speeding car, he ordered his entourage Andre: "Go back to the Giant of Light and tell the people in the Propaganda Department that Lord Erwin is full of praise for the portable light series products, and ask them to summarize a publicity plan for me."

   "Yes, sir." Andre replied.

   Returning to the Penrose Master Tower, Duke inspected the experimental progress of the research group, and then returned to his office to continue to study the spiritual magnetic wave and the slide card.

   At the same time, take the time to practice making a 1-ring Arcane Card-Arcane Shield.

   "Xiaoyi, the progress is getting faster and faster. I can already draw two-thirds of the part. If we work harder, we will try to win it within two weeks."

   "Xiao Yi has been working hard, please master and work hard with Xiao Yi, success is not far from us."

   "The way you speak is becoming more and more like a normal person."

   "There is still a lot of room for improvement." Xiaoyi responded that as a nine-ring-level arcane weapon, it has great potential, but it is limited by the fact that Duke's hardware cannot keep up.

  After Duke was promoted to an arcanist, Xiaoyi's computing power and human-computer interaction capabilities are rapidly improving.

   Busy to get off work.

  After returning to the villa, the butler Morris came over and said, "Master, the balance on the Family Spirit Dragon Card is no longer enough for this month's expenses."

   "Are you out of money? I'll transfer it to you." Duke took out his personal Spirit Dragon Card.

   He activated three Spirit Dragon cards by himself.

  A private spirit card is kept with him, storing most of his personal property; a public account spirit card is kept by Mu Lali, responsible for various expenses when going out; a family spirit card is kept by Morris, responsible for all expenses of the villa.

   Swipe each other's Linglong cards.

  Duke transferred 200 gold dragons to use for these two months' expenses.

  However, when I took back the private spirit dragon card, I glanced at the balance on it, and there was only less than 100 gold dragons left.

   "The balance on the public account Linglong card is not much...the expenses are too big these days." Duke's mood became a little depressed.

  Flying Shuttle was purchased in installments, and the payment has not yet been paid.

  Chicken clamored to eat spirit crystals every day, and a piece of spirit crystals would get 25 gold dragons.

  The expenses of the Knight Guards, the Broken Sword Mercenary Group, the expenses of the entourage, and the entertainment expenses between the Arcane Masters are all crazily overdrafting his Spirit Dragon Card.

   "If I can't get some experimental consumables from the Penrose Mage Tower, I'm too poor to even do the experiment now!"

   "I didn't pay the cost of the Giant of Light. It was maintained by the 2,400 Golden Dragons invested by the three companies. In the future, we may need to invest a sum of money to expand the production scale."

at last.

  He scratched the hair on his sideburns: "I need to make some quick money!"

   However, there were not many places where he could make quick money, so he quickly sent a letter to Commander Zina of the Broken Sword Mercenary Corps with the postman owl.

  The letter asked Zina to collect a damaged 3-ring spirit card in Snake Town.

   "Return to the old business, repairing cards!" This is Duke's decision, with Xiaoyi assisting in the card repairing plan, he is better at repairing cards than any card maker.

   Some 3-ring cards are seriously damaged, and the card maker himself may be helpless.

  But after Xiaoyi's calculations, there may still be a glimmer of hope for restoration, and this hope is the guarantee for him to make money.

  Zina's response was quick.

  On the third day, she came to Shenjiao City in person and met Duke: "My lord, your letter is really timely. Recently, the number of spirit beasts around Cuihai Valley has increased sharply. The major mercenary groups can't bear it anymore and started hunting in the direction of Cuihai Valley again."

   "Aren't you afraid of the Black Jade Horseshoe Dragon?"

   "Maybe I think that if I don't provoke the Black Jade Scorpion, the Black Jade Horseshoe Dragon will not show up. After all, the Black Jade Horseshoe Dragon has never appeared in the past one or two years." Zina shook her head, "Mercenary is a business that licks blood on the tip of a knife. No one wants to sit and eat."

"I see."

   "After I got your letter, I went around the various mercenary regiments and successfully received seven damaged 3-ring arcane cards."

  Zina took out seven arcane cards.

  Duke held it in his hand, did a little inspection, and then through Xiaoyi's quick calculation, it was determined that four of them had been completely destroyed.

   "These four spirit cards can't be repaired, and I'll try the remaining three." Duke ordered, "I'll go back after eating here at noon. After returning, I will continue to collect cards. I will continue to collect 3-ring arcane cards. I can also accept some expensive 2-ring arcane cards. If they are too cheap, don't accept them."

  As a card maker, almost no one is willing to continue to do card repair business.

  Duke can afford to let go of his social status, but an ordinary 2-ring arcane card is only worth tens of hundreds of gold dragons, and repairing the card is estimated to only make a fraction of the money, which is a waste of time for him.

   "I understand, I will increase the intensity of card collection after I go back." Zina said happily.

  Collecting, repairing, and selling cards is a money-making plan she planned a long time ago, but after Duke was promoted to an arcanist, he didn't have much time to repair cards.

  She went on to say: "You repair high-end cards, and Little Sam's card repair shop repairs low-end cards. The card repair industry is basically in our hands. Before the end of the Cuihai Valley development war, this industry will have great profits."

   "Don't be in a hurry to make money... I'm a little bit tight right now. I just started a spiritual tool company with a relatively large investment. After a year or so, I can achieve financial freedom."

  Duke explained why he repaired the card.

   Immediately said: "You continue to develop Broken Sword, and when the company gets on the right track, money is not a problem. There are a lot of spiritual materials in Cuihai Valley, which are urgently needed for my next research. It is best not to delay, as this will affect my research."

   "My lord, please send me the list of materials, and we will look for them for you at any time."

   "I will send it when there is a need."

  Liuzina had lunch at the dacha.

  In the afternoon, Duke took advantage of the weekend to ride the spirit horse he bought, and took Levin to the Duke-James farm.

   "Levin, you are walking around the farm with a small bag and white gloves." Duke patted Levin on the shoulder.

  Levin, a big, silly man, is like family in his mind.

  Usually Levine is always bored at home. Whenever there is a chance, Duke will take Levin out with him to let him relax.

   "Sir, can I untie the collar of the white gloves?" Levin asked.

  White Glove is a four-eared hound, the only one among the four-eared hounds raised in the countryside that was brought into the city.

   "Of course, it's fun."

"Um!"

  Levin unfastened the collar of his white gloves and ran to the farm. Xiaodou had also known Levin a long time ago and ran into the farm together.

  Duke rode a spirit horse and joined Vivienne, the captain of the guard knights: "Vivienne, I also know "Imperial Dragon Cavalry Lance". Let me practice together with the guards, so that we can let go of the restraints and gallop in the bushes in the outskirts!"

   Looking for tickets~
