Chapter 31 School-Enterprise Cooperation
"Your Excellency Dean, I would like to reach a cooperation with the Royal Academy of Magic in the name of Carl's Laboratory!"

Finally arrived at the most critical part of the negotiation, Xia Lin said solemnly.

"Ha! Partnership? Your Excellency Xia Lin, do you know what you are talking about?"

It was the first time that Dean Manan saw a sorcerer come to his door whimsically to cooperate with the academy. After a brief surprise, he laughed dumbly and said:

"The Royal Academy of Magic has been passed on for more than a hundred years. During this period, the academy has trained countless mages, and some of those mages even became the court archmage of the sixth ring.

Now, you, a little one-ring mage, actually want to cooperate with the academy without shame? "

"No, Dean Manan, I am not cooperating with the academy as a first-ring mage, but as the founder of a magic laboratory.

In addition, the long history does not explain any problems. As long as cooperation is beneficial to both parties, no matter whether they are young or old, both parties have a basis for cooperation.

The cooperative relationship between Karl's laboratory and the Royal Academy of Magic is established on the basis of mutual benefit.

In this cooperation, the laboratory and the college communicate with each other, and exchange talents, resources, and magic research results in all aspects.

For example, I am willing to share with the academy my research results on mental power meters and magic power meters.

In return, the academy should also open the library to our Karl laboratory, and at the same time allow us to hire students from the academy for the purpose of magic research, and to consult the professors of the magic academy on various magic research issues.

Of course, this is based on the condition that it does not affect the normal teaching order of the college. At the same time, we will pay employment fees and consulting fees. "

Xia Lin paused for a while, letting Dean Manan digest what he just said before throwing down the most important bargaining chip:

"The most important thing is that, as the inventor of papermaking technology, I am willing to donate 20% of the shares of the paper mill to be established soon to the college, and at the same time provide a batch of paper to the college at cost price.

After the college holds the 20% shares for one year, it will obtain the free transfer of the papermaking technology of the paper mill. "

"What? You are willing to hand over the papermaking technology to the academy?!"

Dean Ma Nan remained silent and didn't respond to Xia Lin's previous remarks, but when he heard Xia Lin's last words, Dean Ma Nan immediately showed shock, stood up and clapped his hands on the table .

That is papermaking technology. Although the illiteracy rate in this world remains high, the consumption power of mages and nobles is enough to provide a huge market for paper!

Immediately after realizing his gaffe, Dean Manan frowned again, and began to pace the room, as if weighing the pros and cons of cooperating with Karl's laboratory.

It took a long time before Dean Ma Nan stopped pacing. His eyes were fixed on the paper for a long time, but finally he shook his head helplessly:

"If this is the case, as the dean of the college, I am personally very willing to cooperate with Carl's laboratory. I believe that if the paper is really as cheap as you said, the benefits will definitely be huge.

But the Academy of Magic has had a rule since its establishment, that is, unless the royal family allows, no one except the professors of the academy can enter the library, and even the dean has no power to change this rule. "

Behind the Royal Academy of Magic is the royal family, and Manan Amos is just the dean appointed by the royal family, and it is impossible to violate the will of the royal family for some benefits.

After all, the key to the existence of the Royal Academy of Magic is the large amount of funding and various magical resources provided by the royal family every year. Without these resources, it is impossible for a mage to waste his research time as a professor.

"Royal?"

When Xia Lin heard the dean's words, he first showed a look of disappointment that could not be concealed, and then thought of the possible invitation of the princess, his mind suddenly moved, and he felt that things might not turn around, so he pondered for a moment and asked:

"Then if I can get permission from the royal family, can I enter the library?"

"That's natural. Although the royal family has a lot of funding, you know that researching magic always costs a lot of money.

I don't think anyone in the Academy would object if it was possible to get a profit on the paper.

Moreover, after the popularization of paper, the research cost of mages will be reduced by a considerable amount. Even I will be very grateful to the person who invented the new paper.

Well, kid, it's getting late, I still have an appointment with Professor Maltz, please forgive me for not continuing to chat with you! "

Dean Ma Nan sighed, got up and saw the guests off.

"Wait, sir, you don't have to be so anxious.

Although the academy's library needs to wait for the royal family's permission to enter, we can start other cooperation first, and the 20% of the paper mill shares will be handed over to the Royal Academy of Magic after the paper mill is established.

For example, Karl's laboratory is currently studying a subject of mathematical modeling of the spiritual power nodes in runes. ring mage.

Therefore, I would like to borrow more than a dozen sergeant students from the Royal Academy of Magic and Magic to help us complete this project. Every ten days, our Karl laboratory will pay them 4 silver mal.

When I was a sergeant student, although I had a subsidy from the school, my life was still very difficult. It took more than ten days for a sergeant student from a poor family to earn an income. room is good. "

"Any other cooperation?"

Manan did not expect that the open library, the most critical part of the cooperation conditions in his opinion, would be hopeless. This child would still be willing to cooperate with the academy, and said with some surprise:

"Since you are still willing, then I can establish a cooperative relationship with Karl's laboratory on behalf of the college."

Dean Manan then went on to add:

"However, the third-year students in the college have just started the practical training class, and they are busy getting familiar with spells and becoming first-ring mages.

The first-year students have just entered school and can't even release their mental power, so just pick the candidates you need from the second-year students!

The specific time will be set in seven days. When you come to the academy again on June 29th, I will arrange students for you to choose from, but you must remember your promise not to disturb the teaching order of the academy! "

"Of course! I will pay attention, but there is one thing I need to accommodate, Your Excellency the Dean.

Although the paper mill has not yet been established, can we sign the contract now and give us the powers in the terms of the cooperation of Carl's laboratory in advance? "

Xia Lin could afford to wait for seven days, so he agreed without hesitation, but after hesitating for a moment, he made a new request.

"No problem, but after the paper mill starts producing paper, our college needs 2 sheets of paper of this specification every month, and it is provided at a cost price of [-] copper coins."

Dean Manan hadn't planned to wait until the paper mill was established before signing the contract. He nodded immediately and also made a request.

"Very good, sir, let's draw up the contract now! Confirm that the conditions in the contract are all right, then we can sign it!"

For this small request, Xia Lin had no intention of haggling at all, and readily agreed.

Anyway, even in the previous small workshop production of paper, a round of production cycle can produce 16 sheets of 16 paper. If a larger paper factory is established, I am afraid that [-] sheets of [-] paper will only take four to five days. Yield only.

And Xia Lin didn't tell Dean Ma Nan that the cost of paper may be reduced after the paper mill is established.

Of course, Xia Lin would not be so stupid as to play tricks on this kind of thing. The biggest benefit to him from cooperating with the academy was not money, but name and powerful mage group assistance.

Therefore, Xia Lin plans to explain this point at that time, and believes that he should still be able to earn a good opinion of the academy.

The two sides wrote a contract based on the conditions just now. Carl's laboratory can recruit second-year sergeant students to assist in research in the college on the premise that it will not affect the normal operation of the college, or come to the college to consult professors on various magic issues.

The Royal Academy of Magic of the Imperial Capital obtained 20% of the shares in the paper mill under the name of Karl's laboratory, and the academy can purchase the paper produced by the paper mill at cost price. The tentative quantity is 16 sheets of [-]K standard paper per month.

After the two parties confirmed that there was no problem with the terms of the contract, they signed the contract. Xia Lin, who had successfully achieved the purpose of the trip, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

With this contract, his Karl laboratory can pull a tiger's skin and erect a banner to deter those who are about to make a move. I believe his industrial park plan will be implemented smoothly.
