Chapter 95 043: A sudden thought to seek the magic stone

Where should I start?

In fact, it is not difficult for apprentices to earn magic stones as long as they are willing to work hard. The castle also provides deliberate guidance and encouragement, and arranges multiple channels for apprentices to obtain magic stones.

You can receive rewards for accepting missions in the mission area, and the recycling department also purchases potions prepared by apprentices, scrolls made, magical tools, etc. Basically, as long as the apprentices want and work hard, they will never have to worry about not being able to earn magic stones.

“Boom boom boom!”

"Rosie! Nicole! Open the door!"

Just as I was thinking about how to make money, there was a knock on the door, followed by Alan's voice.

Although everyone was not living in the same room after entering the inner castle, they did not live far from each other, and Alan and the others would occasionally come to visit Luo Xi.

Nicole walked over and opened the door. Alan came in hurriedly, followed by Ina.

"Quick, my brother, help me!"

He walked all the way to Luo Xi and said anxiously.

Luo Xi gave him a big "?"

Ina followed behind and explained, "He has an appointment with Horn to practice magic duel next week, but his alchemical armor has a problem at this time, so he wants you to help take a look."

“Oh, I see.”

Luo Xi nodded: "Bring it in."

After saying that, he stood up and walked into the laboratory next door. Alan followed him, while Nicole and Ina stayed in the room to chat.

Coming to the operating table, Alan took out the alchemical armor from the space ring.

Ever since he first bought the alchemical armor base in the Fairy Street three years ago, Alan has been fascinated by this kind of magical craft. In the past three years, he has changed many sets of alchemical armor, and basically spent all the magic stone subsidies given by the castle on them.

Of course, this is also related to the magical path that Allen himself has taken.

He is a body-refining wizard who has extraordinary physical fitness by constantly strengthening his body. When fighting, he relies more on powerful strength and believes in breaking all laws with one force.

The attack methods of wizards in this route tend to be close combat, and in close combat they often need to advance under the opponent's firepower, so they rely more on defensive wizard tools. A good set of alchemical armor is basically a must for every physical wizard.

"I don't know what's going on. I can't activate the defensive spell above since yesterday. I'm almost at a loss. Can you help me take a look?"

In any course involving knowledge, Luo Xi is the undisputed number one among his peers, and alchemy is no exception. He has basically passed several assessments with full marks. Many apprentices of the same period would come to Luo Xi for help when they had problems with their wizard tools.

Soon, Luo Xi found out the problem. One of the runes was old and blurred, causing the overall elemental energy to fail to circulate, thus making the defensive spell ineffective.

"A rune is broken."

"Ah, is that a serious problem? How long will it take to fix it? Will I be able to make it in time for the duel next week?"

"I'm still planning on wearing him for his majestic appearance."

Alan fired off a barrage of remarks.

Luo Xi rolled his eyes and was about to say something to him, but when the words came to his lips, he seemed to suddenly think of something in his mind. He looked at the alchemical armor on the operating table, and then at Alan who was standing next to him.

A majestic appearance?

He suddenly thought of a good way to earn magic stones -

Selling witchcraft tools.

With his current level of knowledge, it would be no problem for him to make some ordinary wizard tools, and wizard tools have always been very profitable in the wizarding world.

Take the alchemical armor that Alan has here for example, the main material is black iron, which costs a few magic stones per pound. Even with other miscellaneous costs, the cost of making such an alchemical armor would not exceed 100 magic stones. However, Alan spent a full 300 magic stones to buy it!

This is just the non-mainstream alchemical armor. Other wands, cloaks, magic items, and equipment, any one of them can bring in amazing profits.

The only problem is that the market for some common, low-end wizard tools has been saturated, with major wizard families occupying the vast majority of sales. It is difficult for ordinary individual wizards to get in unless they have something particularly outstanding.

After all, if it's the same thing, a product without any quality assurance or a mature craft endorsed by a big family, anyone with a sound mind would only choose the latter, right? Lowering the price to make small profits but quick turnover is not very realistic. Maybe you can try it in the Black Witch Domain where there is no order and insufficient supply channels, but the market here is already very mature. Behind every witch tool shop and stall, there are more or less other forces involved. Going in and disrupting the market is no different from seeking death.

Others don't even need to play dirty. They can openly arrange for law enforcement agencies to give them some kind of inspection package according to the rules and order, or they can simply reduce prices and give discounts to hedge after their lives and property are at stake, and they can kill a small scum like themselves in minutes.

So this road is blocked?

Not entirely.

It was unrealistic to go to the big market and snatch food from the mouths of the major wizard families, but you could pay the apprentices in the castle? Don't doubt the purchasing power of the apprentices. Every apprentice who entered the inner castle would receive a subsidy of several hundred magic stones every month. In addition, many apprentices also signed agreements with some wizard families to receive funding from these wizard families. Without saying too much, a few thousand magic stones was not a big deal for any apprentice who entered the inner castle.

There were 53 apprentices who entered the inner fort during their period alone, and there were a total of 10 periods in the inner fort. The majority of them were still in the apprentice stage, totaling about 600 people.

Apart from this, those apprentices who did not enter the inner castle basically did not leave the castle. Most of them chose to accept the castle's arrangements and work hard in various positions. With their salaries, their purchasing power was no less than that of the inner castle apprentices.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Including this part, there are about 3,000 apprentices in the Elemental Castle. Not to mention all of them, even if only one-third or one-tenth can become his customers, it would be an industry worth more than 100,000 magic stones.

So, how can he get these apprentices to give up the mature craftsmanship of various wizard families and choose his three-no products? Luo Xi had never thought about it before, but now Alan's words have awakened him, that is -

Cool! Crazy cool! This world has not experienced the baptism of the Renaissance and the Internet era, so the production of weapons and equipment still remains at the basic concept of "strong and durable". There are some who pay attention to the appearance design of equipment, but most of them only work on relatively high-end equipment, and there are basically no apprentices.

Take Allen's alchemical armor for example. It looks like a set of heavy knight armor. The seams show traces of rivets and smelting, and it is so rough that it looks like it was sewn with needle and thread.

Isn’t this a gap in the market?

As long as he could make the weapons and equipment more beautiful and add some gorgeous designs, Luo Xi believed that there would be many apprentices who would buy into it.

So how to make weapons and equipment eye-catching? This is not a problem for Luo Xi.

In the world in my memory, there are many film and television works, games and animations with the background of magical times. Any weapon or equipment in them can easily beat the aesthetics here in terms of design.

Yes, that's it!

Daring to think and dare to do has always been Luo Xi's life creed. After thinking quickly and making sure that this project was worth a try, Luo Xi began to plan secretly.

On the other side, seeing that Luo Xi was reluctant to speak, Allen became anxious and asked quickly, "Is the problem very troublesome?"

Only then did Luo Xi pull back his thoughts that had run away.

He looked at Alan and suddenly thought of a good way to test his plan.

"No." He shook his head. "It's a small problem."

Alan breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to ask Luo Xi why he had such an expression if it was just a small problem, he heard Luo Xi say, "I will help you fix it, but before that you need to promise me one thing."

"A small matter."

I don't know why, but Alan felt that Luo Xi's expression was strange at this moment.

Just like those greedy goblins.
