Almighty Alchemist - v4 Chapter 13

Memory is a very strange thing.

Many memories are not clear at first, and just staying in your mind may bring you some strange feelings, but they may not be profound.

So when Xiuyi left Purgatory Island, he would not go looking for the Harden couple in particular, because for him, it was just a memory of others.

However, once the person in memory appears in front of the eyes, when the real person overlaps with the person in the memory, all the emotions will immediately redouble.

Even Xiu himself didn’t expect that at the moment when he saw the Harden couple, a ray of sunshine rose in his heart, and those memories that he once ignored had flowed into his mind, as the sun had spilled over the original Ruthless heart.

If it is said that the soul is divided into master and vice, then the strong emotion of the once-suppressed vice-soul prevails in an instant, Xiu Yi almost has the urge to scream.

Fortunately, the emotional outburst at this moment was only temporary, and he regained his initiative in an instant, but he also really understood what the original Hugh Iglell had to Harden’s family.

It’s like the children met their parents.

Even Xiu Yi felt very kind when he saw Baron Harden, who was always serious, Madame Harden with a kind mother smile, and the young men and women.

“Hey, Catherine, I hope you don’t get a headache from my uninvited. When I knew you were here in Warrington, I always wanted to visit you.” Raschel came to Xiuyi.

“I’m so glad to meet you, Chief Raschel. I assure you that I don’t know that you have returned to Warrington, otherwise I will definitely send you a post in person.” Xiuyi answered immediately.

Everyone is an excellent actor, and Xiu’s answer to Raschel is almost seamless.

Even if it did, Raschel wouldn’t reveal it.

“Introducing you, Baron William Harden, from South Wales. This is his wife, Pamela. These two are Julia and Tami, their children. Oh, yes, their age Almost as old as you, maybe you have two more friends. “

“Welcome your arrival, gentlemen and ladies, I hope that the enthusiasm of Wuyin Castle can drive away the fatigue caused by the distant journey, and I hope everyone can adapt to the weather here.” Xiuyi made the most elegant gesture to respond.

“Everything here is wonderful, it’s an honor to be in Hidden Castle,” the baron replied.

The lady and the children saluted together.

The meeting between Xiu Yi and Harden’s family began in this strange situation, and each person perfectly performed his role.

After a few words with everyone, Xiu Yi took time to leave.

He has too many guests to receive.

Looking at his back, Raschel asked Baron Harden: “How do you feel about the little master here?”

“Not bad, a boy who knows politely.”

“Speaking of etiquette.” Raschel suddenly remembered: “Do you think Catherd Daniel is well aware of etiquette?”

“Of course.” Baron Harden nodded refreshedly: “He did a great job, and he behaved very well. You know that I have been influenced by my family since childhood, and the prom is the most tested place. The more complicated and busy the occasion is The more you test one’s etiquette skills. It can be seen that the Master Sisada Danil has a very good education. He speaks very elegantly, and everything seems to be conducted in accordance with teaching. “

Raschel nodded. “I guess you can teach children the same, right?”

“That’s true,” the baron replied.

Raschel got the answer he wanted most and smiled very happily. He looked at Xiu Yi’s back, with a complex look in his eyes: “When a wolf is covered with sheepskin, no matter what kind of camouflage is exposed, the wolf tail is always exposed.”

For some reason, at the first sight of Xiu Yi, the baroness’s heart jumped wildly, and she felt as if she saw the blond boy who had been sent away a few years ago.

Although the boy’s hair was not golden and the colors of his eyes were different, the shape of his face, as well as some habitual characteristics revealed by his behavior, were so similar to that of Shuigler.

No matter how the outside world rumors, in the baroness’s heart, Xiu Yi is a well-behaved, sensible, innocent and cute boy.

Sometimes the Baroness once thought that if he could take out the forty Kimvits himself, it would never have been possible for Shuigler to become a wanted criminal of the empire.

The moment she saw Sisyedad Danil, she seemed to see Xiu standing in front of her eyes with an innocent smile.

“Mother, what are you looking at?” The son next to Tammy asked her.

The baroness quickly converged: “Oh, nothing.”

Tammy reached into his wife’s ears: “What do you think of Master Sisydardanil?”

Madam’s heart beat: “Very good, what’s wrong?”

“I look familiar to his back.”

The lady immediately became nervous: “No bullshit, remember what your father said? On any occasion, don’t mention the name.”

“Yes, mother.” The boy immediately bowed his head.

Hugh Glair, the name has now become a taboo for the Harden family.

As the head of the family and the former owner of Hugh Glair, Baron Harden did everything he could to avoid the influence that the name brought to his family.

Taking a deep look at Xiuyi, the baroness said to her son, “Don’t think about it any more. Look there, there are many girls about the same size as you. of.”

“Okay,” Tammy replied.

For the baroness and baroness, being able to attend such a big ball was already very fortunate.

If their son can meet a noble girl here, this will undoubtedly be very good for the future of Harden’s family.

In the eyes of every parent, their son is always the best, and they believe that Tammy will surely make many girls happy.

In fact, some interested people can easily find that most of the guests of the Dardanelle family are accompanied by their daughters.

These girls are generally young, and under the leadership of their parents were invited to participate in the dance, becoming a beautiful scenery in the foggy castle.

Many girls are fashionable and fashionable, they come together to form a small community, while enjoying the food in the castle, talking nonchalantly. Occasionally, we will compare each other to see who is wearing the most popular fashion this summer and bought the most beautiful jewelry.

The Hardens hope that their son will find a confidant who belongs to him here, but they ignore their daughter’s mood.

Julia is probably the simplest dress among all the noble ladies at the ball.

A slightly faded dress, the style is old, except for one of the most common bracelets, no other accessories.

The ladies of the luxuries cast their eyes on her and gave her a disdainful look, then quickly left, apparently disdain to be with her.

It made her feel a little embarrassed.

Sometimes she also wondered why her parents had to travel thousands of miles to Winrington. Although living in his hometown is hard, at least he is free and happy.

There are too many giants in Warrington to tolerate a small rundown aristocracy.

At home, at least she has dignity.

However, at that moment, a servant came to her and stood by: “Is this Miss Julia?”

“Yes it’s me.”

The servant whispered, “Master Master Seser asked me to come, and he hopes that each of his guests will have a good mood here. So he has some small gifts for you … if you don’t mind.”

“Gift?” Julia’s eyes widened in surprise. She couldn’t figure out why the young master of Dardanelle’s family wanted to give her a gift.

Following the footsteps of the servants, she left the main hall, and she saw a large number of exquisitely crafted court dance dresses brought by several maids. They were brightly colored and exquisite in style. On each garment, various crystal shoes were placed.

“You can pick slowly until you pick your favorite one.”

At that moment, she exclaimed, covering her mouth.

When Julia returned to the hall again, she wore a gorgeous long dress made of blue velvet, a string of pearl gemstone necklaces hanging around her white neck, small crescent-shaped earrings on her ears, and a pair on her feet. Red dance shoes.

She walked as lightly as an angel, attracting the attention of countless guests.

Kristin came to Xiuyi with a goblet and whispered, “She likes your gift.”

Xiu Yi twisted a smile.

Not far away, Julia sent him a grateful look. Although she didn’t understand why the young master wanted to help herself so much, this undoubtedly greatly improved her affection for Xiuyi.

To help Julia solve the clothing problem, it was just a hand for Xiuyi. At this moment, his main energy is still on the discussion with several big business figures.

“I remember that Master Dardanelle just had a new plan to launch? You know, as a businessman, we are always interested in plans that make money.” This is Jean of San Marino; Brett is asking Xiuyi .

“Oh, speaking, this is indeed a profitable plan.” The topic interrupted by the guests returned to everyone’s conversation, and Xiu Yi was in awe: “Soon after I came to Warrington, I went with my My uncle had a discussion about investment plans. We plan to buy a piece of land in Winrington and build a large-scale alchemy plant. “

“Alchemy factory?” Several business bosses looked at each other.

“Yes.” Xiuyi replied with certainty: “It is not a laboratory, but a factory, which is directly engaged in the production of large-scale refined gold products. We need to recruit some workers, train them, and then make some machines to Mass production of mastered alchemy. “

Several business bosses laughed at the same time: “This is impossible, Heather. Alchemy is a patent of a few people, and no worker can make alchemy products. Most alchemists don’t want their alchemy to leak out, They are the foundation on which to live. However, the most important thing is that alchemy is limited by materials and does not have the ability to mass produce at all. Perhaps the last material has kept you busy for a while and made you mistakenly think that you will You can still get so many materials, but Master Dardanelle, don’t forget that 60% of the materials in Royo City are concentrated in your hands. “

Xiu Yizheng replied: “I have long considered these issues. In fact, the so-called raw material issue is not necessarily a problem. The reason why the material shortage of alchemy is entirely because people always aim at the needs of high-end technology. , But some popular alchemy products do not necessarily need to use those rare materials. On the contrary, some simple and easily cultivated materials are enough to solve many problems. “

“The problem is that the alchemy products produced under the condition of lack of materials have limited profits.” Businessmen have become accustomed to the huge profits brought by alchemy products, so that it is difficult to adapt to the concept of large-scale production of ordinary alchemical products proposed by Xiu Yi for a while .

Xiu Yi smiled and shook his head: “Are you sure about this? Gentlemen. In the Empire, some high-end exquisite decorations may make a huge profit, such as the carpet under our feet and the chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. They are so Beautiful and exquisite workmanship, each one is very profitable. However, due to the existence of production methods and raw material problems, these exquisite high-end products have greatly limited their output. They also face a few nobles, not the general public. I It is difficult to imagine that when the main customer of a commodity is the domestic target of 5% of the population, even if the profit is even higher, how much value can it generate. Compared with them, wheat, rice, wool, etc. Simple daily necessities, their value is not high, but because everyone needs it in the country, there is a huge demand, so the consequence is a huge transaction volume and the most important industry pillar of the empire. “

“In contrast, no matter how the alchemy of the empire develops, it cannot be a pillar industry of the empire because of its distance from the people, and therefore the profits it brings are actually relatively small.”

The people in charge of the commercial bank looked at each other, and they were somewhat surprised by the young man’s argument.

Mr. Dodge cleared his throat before whispering, “Master Dardanelle, do you want to make the alchemy industry a pillar industry like food? This may not be easy.”

“It’s not easy, but we might as well consider it from another perspective. The alchemy industry is an important industry involving many other related industries. When it develops to a certain degree, it can even affect the development of many other industries. For example, alchemy The production of the puppets in China requires a lot of ore and energy spar, which has driven the ore mining industry, and the production of pharmaceuticals requires a lot of magic planting Warcraft, which has stimulated the plantation and breeding industry; the scope of alchemy is so wide, But few people really do it as an industry. The reason is very simple. Alchemy belongs to the ability of a few people. But if we have a certain method, we can reduce costs through mass production, and what we produce is not It is the kind of finished product that requires rare materials to make, and in addition, the products we make have great help to daily life, then the effects it brings will be unprecedentedly huge. “

“You mean you can do that?” Xiuyi’s words surprised everyone.

This is incredible. Alchemy is done as an industry. Even the most ordinary workers can participate in it, and they can continuously produce a certain alchemical product on a large scale … So far, no one has heard of it. Such an alchemy product.

“Yes.” Xiu Yi gave the other party a very positive answer: “This is the experiment that I have invested my energy into. I found that there are many alchemy products that can be popularized with only a little improvement. Yes, the word popularization, it It will bring us far more profit than you can see now! “

Said, Xiuyi refers to a magic board in the hall: “Like the lamp, the nobles used magic lights to light, and the civilians used oil lamps. We all know that magic lights are far more effective than ordinary lights. The oil lamp is much better, and because it uses b> 13 看 网 / b> 网 手机 站 16 ^ energy spar, as long as such a small piece, it can maintain a long time lighting without worrying about wind blowing Rain. These magic lights are also made by alchemists, but if we can have some way to reduce the cost of making such lights to a low enough level, and increase the production speed to a sufficient scale, make magic lights The price is about the same as the ordinary oil lamp, even if it is slightly higher, the result must be … “

“Everyone will use magic lamps instead of ordinary oil lamps, and a large number of sales will make up for the lack of profits and bring us rich profits.” Viscount Radour immediately interfaced. No one is a fool in this regard, and everyone is aware of what it means.

“Yes. It is interesting that the production of magic lights is not difficult. The lampshade is exactly the same as the ordinary oil lamp. Although the energy spar is expensive, it can be used for a long time. There is no difference between the price and the oil consumption. The use of energy spar wick is the only technical key, but for alchemists, it is not much. If we have the intention to change it, we can easily complete its large-scale production with some small changes. Behavior, thereby reducing costs and consumption. “

Xiuyi saw a deeply confused expression on everyone’s faces, and it was clear that they were shocked at the moment by what Xiuyi said.

Even some observers who did not understand alchemy were impressed by the beautiful future outlined by Xiu Yi.

Imagine that when alchemy products spread throughout the land, people ’s lives will be richer and better, the national industry will be thriving, and they can get a lot of huge profits themselves. No doubt, public and private, this is a prospect Great big deal.

The only question is whether Xiuyi can ensure this.

However, it seems that the young family heir has absolute control over the industrialization of alchemy.

“I guess the alchemists won’t like this result. If it can be done, it will greatly impact the position of the alchemists.” Mr Dodge muttered.

“No, the industrialization of alchemy is a long and arduous process. We cannot do all of our alchemical products. There are many cutting-edge alchemies that will not be devalued because they are subject to materials and Technology. Alchemy will therefore be divided into two fields, one is the civilian field, and the other is the high-end field. Real alchemists will still be engaged in alchemy research, but they will no longer engage in alchemy in those civilian fields, but will directly engage in high-end Part of the alchemy study. “

“That’s true. Except for the magic lamp, Master Sitherda Danil, in your plan, how many alchemy products can be industrialized by the hands of craftsmen? The daily output is again how many?”

This is a very important issue. If an industry does not have enough product types to support it, it is obviously impossible to form.

Xiu Yi smiled confidently: “Not many, but it is enough. In my research, there are currently twelve types of alchemy products that can be produced on a large scale. There are about seven types of alchemy products that can appropriately increase output. In addition, there are about seven types. I’m still researching some new products. It is possible to add three to five more in the next six months. This includes reconnaissance bees. If all goes well, the least one can produce three to five hundred per day and the most one. It can be thousands. The highest selling price of each product for civilian products will not exceed ten Jinweit. The scout bee mainly faces the military and can sell three to fifty Jinweit. Such a price is for most people. They are all affordable, and our profit is half. “

The heads of several firms that are good at calculations quickly settled an account.

Then they got a tempting number.

If everything is as Xiu Yi said, then the profits of these alchemy products are huge enough for everyone to be impressed.

“Oh my god, that means at least tens of thousands of King Witt’s incomes every day.” Gene; Brett’s voice shuddered.

“It’s at least tens of thousands of Kingwitts, and the output I have calculated is only a preliminary construction plan. In fact, if the Dardanelle family has more sufficient funds for infrastructure construction, I can completely increase the output .We all know that once the price of these alchemy products is reduced to a certain level, the sales volume will far exceed our imagination. We do not have to worry about sales at all. Empire has hundreds of millions of people. Products will be in short supply. “Xiu Yi said with a confident smile.

“If you can come up with specific alchemy products and mass production methods, San Marino is willing to invest in your business.” Jean; Brett immediately said.

“Dodge is also willing to invest.”

“I can represent the Bavarian family and make investments of less than half a million King Witt.” Viscount Radour also quickly stated.

The trust brought about by the good cooperation and the good prospects outlined by Xiu Yi have made them show great interest in this business.

This makes Xiu Yi extremely proud.

Xiuyi did not lie about the industrialization of alchemy.

But he did so not for the purpose of making alchemy deeper into the people, but for two other reasons.

One is to better tie these big families and large businesses to the Dardanelle family warships.

Another reason, and the most important reason, is that only in this way can he completely solve the problem of mass production of the puppet.

One day, people will find that those factories that produce ordinary alchemy props in large quantities will eventually become the production bases that he used to produce a large number of diamond cormorants, and eventually form the puppet army he has long dreamed of. !! ~!
