Chapter 194 Old Sam's Blessing
That day outside the Boxue Tower, the sales manager of Runwanjia Lingqi Factory failed to buy the patent copyright of the portable lamp.

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 has to be prepared for it.

"Klei Linda, the director of the Observation Tower, is a third-ring arcane master; Aziguli, the director of the legal affairs department of the Boxue Tower, is also a third-ring arcane master... The arcane masters behind Runwanjia Spirit Tool Factory are mainly based on these two... …this 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 flaw.

"of course."

"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 Giant of Light 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 heavy.

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

He knocked on the door of the next office.

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

"Is Kiriya there? I have something to do with her."

"I'm here, I'll inform the lady right now." The area where Jisi was located was outside the office, so she had 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 by myself, the Giant of Light Spirit Tool Company, and these are my company's upcoming listings. The product, I'll give it to you to have a look."

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

"Busy around and 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. It is especially convenient for mine work.”

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

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

After hearing Duke's promotion, Kiriya reached out and brushed the wavy blond hair beside her ear, and said, "So you are here to sell products to me. I think these two lamps are very interesting, but I have never had any contact with the family business. Pass."

"Haha, it's okay, 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, in line with the principle of making one pole if there is no date.

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

As the newly promoted arcanist of the Raging Waves family, Kylia will come into contact with these businesses sooner or later, or the people in charge of the business.

With that said, 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. The built-in storage The spirit card can be recharged anytime, anywhere."

"It's really convenient." Kylia 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.

Kiriya 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 floated on his pretty face.

While admiring it, Duke explained: "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 at night or waking up at night, I believe it is better than the spirit light. use."

After a pause, Duke added: "It's daytime now, 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." Kylia said happily, "I will keep these lamps and try them out. recommend."

"Thank you, I'll treat you to dinner another day."

"You're too polite, it's a little effort."

Without too much conversation, Duke took his leave politely.

If it were him in his previous life, when Duke saw the beauty he liked, he would definitely talk about it cheekily.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, and saw Kiria fiddling with the headlamp when she came back, she couldn't help but said, "I really misjudged, thinking that Your Excellency Duke will focus on academic research just like Leadman's mentor Woolen cloth."

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

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

"Of course, the inventor's idea is very good. You see, after wearing this headlamp on the head, it completely liberates the hands." Kylia put the headlamp on her big wavy blonde hair, and her elegant image was captured by the head. The lamp was completely destroyed, but there was a bit more life.

"It's ugly to wear," said Jiss.

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

After taking off the headlamp, Kiriya 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." Ji Si praised.

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

"If it's your suggestion, miss, I'll buy it."

……

the other side.

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

Kylia is just a spare tire, and Duke doesn't really believe that a little girl from a big noble 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 Irving.

Only the Earth Arcane Master with the title of polymath can really see the value of lamps such as portable lamps and headlamps, and then he also has enough authority to facilitate the purchase of the Hibidi Spirit Mine Company.

"But then again, Erwin has a lot of things to do every day, can this small business be put in his eyes?"

"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, his secretary will help you convey the appointment request, and the time cannot be confirmed until Lord Erwin returns. "

"Then just wait." Duke nodded.

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

The products of the Light Giant Spirit Tool Company 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 if it's because of their blood, most of the female members have melon 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 by, and was thrown out by Duke.

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

Every day, Duke would 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.

When Duke saw the streets and alleys, there seemed to be a familiar figure.

"parking!"

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 the matter?" Mu Lali didn't understand.

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

The flying shuttle spewed out a stream of air and sped away 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 without the 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 good 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 brows and asked excitedly, "Dad, among the people you know, the only one who can drive a shuttle is Lord Duke, right?"

"Your father and I know too many important people!"

"Come on, you're always bragging about your son. You've been running a card repair shop in Sheshou Town for half your life. I'm afraid the arcane masters haven't seen many of them."

"Humph!"

"Just tell your son, is it Lord 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!" The son looked annoyed, "You don't want to ask you to find him. It's okay!"

"What do you know!" Old Sam snapped.

"I don't understand why, you just made a fortune from him for the patent. He is the master of the arcane master, so he still cares about this?"

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

"I know... 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, and it wasn't enough. It's up to you to earn more or less. Did the store give it to him?"

"I made money, 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 I used the money to do business with you. I didn't think about it at all. I didn’t even tell him the address because I was afraid that he would come and pester me.”

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 the master of the arcanist...you say, I used 10 gold dragons to win his patent , what would he think?"

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

"He was willing to buy it, and he didn't look for me again after he was promoted to an arcane master, but if I really saw him, would I have to take out the money?" Old Sam said with a look of hatred on his face, "The money of the arcanist master , you dare to make money? 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 identity, and what is my identity, can you be qualified to cling to the powerful!"

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

"Stop shouting by 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 You can keep your money.”

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

With a low voice, he sighed: "How could I know that Duke was really promoted to an arcane mage. At the beginning, I praised him for being a polymath, but it really came true..."

……

Duke had long 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 the car to take a look, and didn't get out of the car to look for it.

But it 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 pulp 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 Erudite 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 can I ask for?"

"The lamps I invented." Duke took out a few samples such as portable lamps and headlamps. One or two blessings?"

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 tied up 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 carefully, and gave his Conclusion, "There's something big going on."

Duke happily said, "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."

"That's a good thing."

"So, if you think these lamps are good, my lord, maybe the Hibidi Ling Mine Company can purchase a batch and send a signal, which will also facilitate the rapid promotion of this lamp to the bottom of the society." Duke continued to benefit The banner of 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 lighthouse of natural history in Heijiaohe. 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.

He didn't 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 talk to Hebe. Purchasing says hello."

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

"You are a promising young man. You must continue to work hard in the field of natural history. After graduation, there will be a place for you in the Learning Tower."

"I will."

With 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 told 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 and give it to I."

"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.

"Xiao Yi, 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, as a nine-ring level arcane weapon, it has great potential, but it is limited by the fact that Duke's hardware can't 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 opened three spirit dragon cards by himself.

A personal spirit card is carried with him, storing most of his personal property; a public account spirit card is kept by Mu Lali, who is responsible for various expenses when going out; a family spirit card is kept by Morris, who is in charge of the villa. One should be spent.

Swipe each other's Linglong cards.

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

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

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

The Feishuo was bought by installments, and the payment has not yet been paid.

The little 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 Arcanists were all crazily overdrafting his Spirit Dragon Card.

"If it weren't for getting 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 is maintained by the 2400 Golden Dragons invested by the three companies. After expanding the production scale, I may have to invest a sum of money in it."

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 using the postman owl.

The letter asked Zina to collect the 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 other card maker.

For some badly damaged 3-ring cards, the card maker himself may be at a loss what to do.

But after Xiaoyi's calculations, there may still be a glimmer of hope for recovery, 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. hunting."

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

"Maybe you think that if you 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, "A mercenary is the tip of a sword." In the business of licking blood, no one wants to sit back and eat."

"I see."

"After I got your letter, I went around the various mercenary regiments and successfully received seven damaged three-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, and continue to collect cards after returning. You can also accept expensive 3-ring arcane cards, but don’t accept the ones that are too cheap.”

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

Duke can afford to let go of his worth, 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. After I go back, I will increase the intensity of card collection." Zina said happily.

Collecting cards, repairing cards, and selling cards is the 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 basically belongs to our broken sword. Before the end of the Cuihai Valley pioneering war, this industry will have a big impact." profit."

"Don't worry about making money... I'm a little tight right now. I just opened 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.

Then he 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, it will affect me. Research."

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

"I'll send it when I need it."

Lyuzina 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 silly big man, is like a family member 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.

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

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

"Of course, it's fun."

"Ok!"

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 Vivian, the captain of the guard knights: "Vivian, I also know "Imperial Dragon Cavalry Lance", let me practice together with the guards, and have a good time in the bushes in the suburbs, Let go of the shackles and gallop!"
