The bell that rang at the right time for the end of get out of class completely calmed down a certain elder sister. She flashed out of sight and disappeared from the classroom, leaving someone behind to deal with the aftermath.
Lin, who came out to smooth things over, breathed a sigh of relief and packed up the things he brought today, especially the samples taken from himself to be recycled. But the microscope that was set up was not touched. Instead, after patting it, he said to the old magician whose eyes were shining next to him: "Your Excellency Kabamba, this microscope is our gift to the college."
"Gift? Why is this?" To a magician, a transaction is an exchange of equal value. For the time being, 'gift' can be regarded as an unequal exchange. Even gifts have their own purposes, so asking them clearly is more reassuring.
Of course Lin knew the reason for the old magician's worries. He said directly: "I will also use this microscope in the following courses. It is very troublesome to move it around, and it is also very troublesome to install it after moving it. So I and I After Fen discussed it, it was better to donate one to the college. In this way, the effort of moving and installing would be saved, and the responsibility for safekeeping would also be on the college. Not to mention that everyone would want to use it, at least when I was researching it. Yes. Keeping one for public use can also allow the college to arrange the use of this microscope in their spare time, instead of just being greedy and unable to do anything. Such a gift is not bad. "
What someone didn't say was, of course, putting a prototype in the academy. What a great advertisement. Everyone who wants to use it comes and touches it, and those who feel it want to take one home and touch it slowly. This is human nature. Don't ask if the pie is useful. Even if it is not needed, for some masters, having one at home is still a good treasure to show off.
It’s the same mentality as placing art in a noble’s home. Since in the Holy City, the masters will pursue academic status, what better way to show how knowledgeable the owner of the house is than this kind of professional machine.
For the great magician Kabanbai, knowing the other party's reasons actually revolves around one word, 'lazy'. Although I have only known these two for a few days, it is really easy to figure out their personalities. Kabamba could only accept the gift with a smile, while feeling the burning gaze behind him. It is conceivable that there will be many old friends and new friends vying for the right to use the microscope.
But he had another problem. "Sir Tripwood, are you willing to sell this microscope to the public?"
This is exactly what someone was thinking, otherwise he wouldn't know how to say this. "Oh, someone is willing to buy it, of course there is no problem. This was made by the silver-bearded dwarf who asked me to travel with me. The internal program was carefully designed by Fen. In addition to the micro-magnification function, it also comes with It has photography, scanning, analysis, recording and other functions. Not only can the sample be observed through the eyepiece, but it can also be connected to the hydroscope screen for use. If you want, the price is MM Kir (2000 gold), and special customization services are also provided . That is to say, corresponding designs can be made for special needs. The production period, as long as the materials are not delayed, can be completed in about seven to fourteen days. Unless there are any very special requirements. The description documents are directly recorded on the microscope. In the operating system, you can check it directly if necessary."
Someone has already thought about selling microscopes. Considering that this kind of thing cannot be played to the extent that everyone has one, like a forum. It is a research device in itself, and only a very small number of people have the exact need. Rather than taking the low-price, small-profit-but-quick-turnover route, it is better to take the high-end, high-priced, customized route that is fully functional and easy to use. If you sell him one, you have to earn him one.
On the other hand, it also opens up a source of wealth for the silver-bearded dwarves.
Considering that the four rebellious children who ran away from home now depend on someone for food and clothing. It is true that they also helped a lot during the journey. However, in the work of restoring peaceful armed forces that has recently started, many projects are research and development operations that require financial support.
In this part, Lin would like to help without any limit, including the financial part. Even if you don't have enough at the moment, you can still make it up if you try to squeeze it in. But perhaps the method of seizing the airship Sid made several dwarves wary. Therefore, they would rather find a way to make money on their own and master everything about peaceful armed forces as much as possible without letting someone interfere too much in the leadership.
Lin didn't have much opinion on this either. The idea for this set of power armor was originally random. The attitude of the silver-bearded dwarf made him feel that it was a lot easier.
Originally, they hoped to find a way to make money with their skills in the Holy City, so as to support the improvement and research of peaceful armed forces. But these simple young men from the countryside are not used to living in human cities. Let them go out on their own and almost sell themselves out in just three days...
So after discussing with the four of them, we decided to maintain the current relationship. It is still up to someone to arrange their work, and the income from selling their products is divided according to the situation. Part of their profits will be used as research funds for the peaceful armed forces, and their food and accommodation will still be supported by someone. After all, this was the condition for taking them away in the first place in exchange for their skills.
Perhaps compared with the technological progress of the earth, the Silverbeard dwarves can be classified as less creative, but the technology of making precision items is nothing to say, unlike their dwarf relatives. Although the confused dwarves are skilled, they don't like making such sophisticated items. Naturally, there is a technical gap between them and the royal family among these dwarves.
So as for the fact that he can still master the skills of the silver-bearded dwarves, someone still said the same thing: he has no objection.
The first product launched by Silverbeard Dwarf is this integrated microscope. The price is two thousand gold, so of course the lion will open his mouth. But this is Midi's only business and product, and the people in need are definitely not the kind of poor people who can't even put food on the table, so someone can feel at ease in being cheated.
But two thousand gold is not a small sum of money for a magician with a rich wealth. The association's asking price for the forbidden spell is almost the same amount. So it can be seen that when someone's quotation comes out, many old magicians look embarrassed.
But someone really wants to say that forbidden spells have to be learned and pondered, and they may not be used once in a lifetime. The microscope is fully functional and can be used as soon as you buy it. What to consider!
However, those words are too pretentious and can easily make people unable to step down. So Lin took out the plan and said: "Of course, it is better for everyone to evaluate whether the things are suitable for use and not to make a decision too early. If you need it temporarily, just come to the academy to borrow this set and use it, and you can also get familiar with how to use it. Otherwise, you can try making it yourself.”
Kabamba asked: "Make it yourself? What do you mean?"
"As the core of the microscope, it is the magic device modified from the Arcane Eye. I call it the 'Microscopic Eye'. I have handed over the design drawings and magic arrays to the association some time ago. I have decided The price is C Kil (100 gold). As long as the association passes the review, everyone can get it from the association. At that time, you can make your own device that suits your own usage habits. Because I am also a person with quirks, and I know that some If you don’t make things by yourself, you will inevitably feel a little uneasy.”
As soon as they finished speaking, several old magicians couldn't sit still and wanted to run to Tower I. There is the headquarters of the Magician Association, which specializes in selling the magic knowledge collected by the association. But as soon as the mature and steady Kabamba opened his mouth, the others couldn't leave. "Sir Tripwood, what is the difference between the microscope eye you mentioned and this microscope?"
Lin thought for a while and said seriously: "Yes, the microscopic eye is the core part, but the operation is very crude. In the past, how everyone used the arcane eye was the same as the microscopic eye. There are many additional functions. Fen made it after she felt it was useful in subsequent research. Therefore, the entire microscope device can be said to be part of her hard work and achievements. The convenience of operation is even more difficult to compare."
After Lin finished speaking, he added at the end: "I also handed over some of the little magic tricks that I created during this period that are quite convenient to use to the association. Including the whiteboard writing skills."
Everything that needs to be said has been said, and everything that needs to be known is known. People in the classroom exchanged a few words, and several old magicians, including Priest Batu, apologized and left in a hurry.
Lin also wanted to use the flash technique to leave, but he would have his own math class later. Although the flash technique is very convenient, running back and forth is not an option. The main reason is that the mentality cannot be changed, so I simply stay and walk towards the large classroom of the mathematics course, accompanied by the great magician Kabanbai. The old man was so polite. Frankly speaking, it made someone a little panicked.
But considering that one of the founders of the academy who was left by him, and also a good friend of Kabamba, the Great Magician Bijan, is now surrounded by the magicians who are still in the classroom, 'discussing' the only one The right to use the Taimi version of the microscope. Someone feels that the old magician next to him has left the mess to others...
No wonder, when this old man knew that someone was going to the math classroom, he was so eager to see someone off in person. I can't refuse even if I want to.
Although there is a slight age difference, Kabamba's respect is absolutely genuine, and it is the same for everyone in front of him and behind him. Lin couldn't help but admire this performance. If it were me, would I be so free and easy facing someone younger than myself?
But as an old man, in addition to knowledge, he also loves some gossip. On the way to the math classroom, the great magician Kabanbai asked: "Sir, in the life class just now, Your Excellency Fen Ni seemed to be very dissatisfied with her former subordinates. Do you know the reason for this?"
This is considered a private matter of the lich. According to the rules, someone should not speak this way. But the subversive truth about Fen's past is known to people in today's world...it doesn't seem to matter, but it helps alleviate misunderstandings about her. So Lin thought about it seriously and decided to talk about the history that he learned from Fen, which was different from what the world knew.
