Act 237: Account Book, Source of Funds and College Students(1/2)
"This matter is related to an antiquity," Dottori explained, "I hope Mr. Ed keeps it secret. Not long ago, the Empire's archaeological regiment discovered a magic weapon from the age of the Seven Sages of the Heroes in an abandoned mining area on the border of the Nordspits. It looked like a magic furnace, but it had never been recorded in the Imperial Technology Yearbook. The alchemists of Mobius were studying it, but everyone was unable to make up their minds because this tower magic furnace was very different from the technical route we knew in the past, and even the masters of the Empire Workshop were arguing about it."
"The Oshu Craftsmen Association is calling on all alchemists who are familiar with tower magic furnaces to come to Ayinblock. Several masters have arrived at the mobile fortress before, but they can't give a positive answer to the tower magic furnace. I think Mr. Ed is also familiar with tower magic furnaces, maybe he can participate in it."
Before returning to the hall, Fang Yu thought about the other party’s words silently.
A magic furnace that has not been recorded in the Imperial Technology Yearbook. The Imperial Technology Yearbook is somewhat similar to the technical score of the Craftsmen Association, which records in detail the evolution and development of each technology since its establishment.
Of course, the world is full of strange inventions, and most useless things will not be recorded in the crystal of the Craftsman Association.
But there are always some technologies that have been unknown since their birth, but are not meaningless, and some of them can even be called epoch-making, but they disappear into the long river of history because of chance.
Fang Zhu has many such technologies at hand, including Hayn's Holy Crystal and Delan's Magic Recovery.
Dottori said this matter so seriously that the "Mobius" mobile fortress even summoned the masters of craftsmen to Ayinblock to study an antique, which all showed that the magic furnace found under the abandoned mining area was extraordinary.
The age of the Seven Sages of Heroes is actually about the birth of the self-Kaolin-Ishurien-Greythy Alchemist Brout-Ashket, and has gone through six great alchemists to the 142 years until Luo Zhen disappeared.
That was the last era of the heroic era after the arrogant alchemist Nick Lemay. Nick Lemay was born in 669 and died in 712. In other words, this magic furnace discovered in the border area of Nordspits was almost a product of this era.
It is about four hundred years ago.
In that era, new magic furnaces had appeared, and it was also the peak of tower magic furnaces. New technologies are still in their infancy, but the technology of the old era has completed its most glorious time.
The alternation between the old and the new begins quietly.
It is not surprising that a tower magic furnace was discovered in that era, but what is strange is that the attitude of the alchemists has, which aroused Fang Yu's curiosity. What magic does that ancient magic furnace have that can make the entire "Mobius" argue endlessly about this?
The first page on the Craftsman's Manual reads:
'Alchemists should be curious.'
In Aitalia, curiosity is the sail that prompts people to explore in the endless unknown sea of ether. When mortals take over the mantle from the hands of the Noumerlin elves and go further and further on the road of magical skills, they will realize and discover that have not been realized.
It also converts unknown into known.
Fang Yu did not intend to limit his curiosity. Besides, he originally planned to visit the "Mobius" mobile fortress. The Empire Workshop was located below, which was a legend in the hearts of all alchemists.
As for whether he could find anything from it, he had no hope.
Although his technology was inherited from Hayn, the tower magic furnace has evolved for nearly six centuries after that. Ayon Bullock issued a technical call, and no real master can see anything from it.
Then Fang Yu can only have cautious expectations for his good luck.
But no matter what, the Empire Workshop keeps the magic furnace confidential, and it is good that he can participate in it and have a long experience.
Besides, Dottori told him not to worry too much. This request itself has nothing to do with the Empire Morning Star and the Six-winged Angel. Whether it succeeds or not, it will not prevent him from taking away this legendary structure that originally belonged to the King of Gray.
After all, he has met the conditions himself, and business naturally belongs to business.
Of course, in this transaction, Dottori gave him a huge discount on behalf of the "Golden Magic Loft". The detailed price cannot be explained in detail, so he can only reveal that it is almost free.
Dottori agreed with Fang Ling to go to the Empire Workshop a week later.
The latter calculated the time and found that he was free, so he immediately agreed happily.
Before leaving, Fang Yu also entrusted the other party to purchase a batch of alchemy raw materials, which were fake and real. Most of them were to complete the orders once in the first quarter with the Oak Knights. After helping ‘R’ and Shana and others make that batch of equipment, he had no more inventory on hand.
But Fang Yu also mixed the materials he practiced in the next craftsman competition, and added some raw materials for long-term reserve as a trick.
So even if the Sacramental Guild people are still here, he is not worried about what the other party will analyze from it.
After all, I was not the primary school apprentice who had just left Capka. He really missed the carefree days he had been with Miss Scapai.
And now, he has also learned to guard against others.
Fang Zhun should not only guard against the people of the Sacrament Guild, but also guard against the "Gujin's Magic Loft".
Although both sides get along well.
But as mentioned earlier, business is business, and the other party may not sell him for the next business, and there is no friendship between him and the Empire Workshop.
But Dottori is worthy of being a professional manager and shows no emotion on his face.
The other party only took a note of the needs of the plucks below, checked the inventory in the warehouse, and then settled the accounts for him one by one - of course there were not many discounts in this regard.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! However, the big head spent is still the Knight-type annihilist and the throat-locking monster.
Although Fang Zhu fell in love with the Empire Morning Star and the Six-winged Angel at first glance, he also expressed great interest in these two new components.
First of all, he bought the Empire Morning Star and the Six-winged Angel here publicly, and there is no confidentiality. As long as the latter is used, outsiders can guess his identity. But the Knight-type Annihilation and the Throat Chalker are not the case. These two types of structures are visible to the naked eye and must be sold out. In the future, they may become the main structures of combat craftsmen at this stage.
In terms of low recognition, mass-produced configurations have unparalleled advantages over heterogeneous bodies.
Moreover, the Knight-type Annihilation and the Throat Chalker are also quite excellent. The former is the main assembly for frontal combat, and the latter is the assassination-type assembly. The two complement each other and fill the tactical gaps with each other.
Completely satisfied with the needs of square pluck for the main combat configuration.
Both are not cheap, but they both have 10% discounts - this is not a personal discount for Dottori, but a promotion strategy for new products that everyone can enjoy. The Knight-type Annihilation is more expensive, after all, it is a split-type construction, with a 94,000-lisel one. The throat-locking monster is much cheaper, only a little more than half of the former.
Fang Zhu purchased ten Knight-type Annihilists and six throat-locking monsters. Because they were paid with points from the Craftsman Association, they could still be discounted by 20%, which cost less than 9,000 points in total.
The exchange ratio between technical points and Rissel on the market is 1 to 116:1 (real-time floating), but when trading internally by the Alchemist, technical points are actually much more popular than Rissel. After all, points can be exchanged for things that Rissel cannot buy, or are difficult to buy within the Craftsman Association.
To be honest, Dottori couldn't help but look at Fang Zhu's attention when he could take such a large sum of points to buy things-
First of all, it is one thing to be able to get such a large amount of points, of course it is not particularly surprising, after all, the Dragon Alchemist is famous.
But it is another matter to take points to buy ordinary alchemy supplies. It means some suckers, or they don’t care about their own points at all. The former is fine, but the latter is a bit meaningful.
Of course, this manager may think it was the latter. It was just that Fang Yu knew his family's affairs - he was actually just simply not that much money.
The richest period of the Seven Seas Brigade was around the time when Tansnier built the Seven Seas Brigade. At that time, with the support of His Highness Istaniya, various resources were continuously transported to the shipyard, and there was no need to worry about the cut off funds.
Later, after they left Istaniya, His Highness the Great Princess added a sum of money to their accounts, about 1.2 million Risels.
Fang Ling sometimes feels that this great princess is really like the mother of Qihai Traveler.
Istaniya is almost half the hometown of the Seven Seas Brigade.
Most of the people on the boat think so, especially the ones who are lying flat-
But His Highness the Great Princess cannot give them money at all times. After all, His Highness the Princess and Alef are still responsible for their people. On the other hand, the Kingdom of Kaolin is becoming more and more pressing—
So after leaving Istaña, the funding source of the Seven Seas Brigade was officially exhausted.
The remaining regular transactions with the Oak Knights are basically equivalent to regular investments by Yugudora and Zifeiyu in the Seven Seas Brigade, but after the incident in Tapolis, the source of this funding was basically intermittent.
Although the Oak Knights have been rebuilt, they are no longer as they did in the past. They have to spend money in all aspects, so it is naturally impossible to invest too much in them. In fact, the Qihai Brigade itself has to pay some money to enter the transactions between Fang Zhu and Hongye in the next quarter.
But Fang Yushi didn't mind either.
After all, the two sides established friendship in Dorifin, and the Oak Knights handed over elite players like Jita and Luo Yu to the hands of the Seven Seas Brigade, and also brought a precious magic book. Now the Seven Seas Brigade is not a brigade under the Knights.
But it's even better than an allies.
Fang Ling was not the kind of person who was in trouble. Yugudora and Zifeiyu gave them great help when the Seven Seas Brigade was first established, and even indulged in it. Of course, although there was a factor of internal division within the Knights at that time, he did not forget this kind of kindness at all.
Now that the Oak Knights are rebuilt, he has taken a lot of investments from Hongye, and it is understandable to choose a return.
Fang Ling sometimes thought that perhaps this was exactly what Yugudora and Zifeiyu wanted to achieve when they met him at Golander.
Everyone said that the "Silver Dragon" never did business that suffered losses. When he completed the transaction with the Knights, he felt that it was a bit exaggerated. Unexpectedly, when he looked back today, he turned out to be the case.
And Fang Yu thought about it carefully and found that he had no reluctance to say it.
That's a great decision maker.
He thought to himself.
But even in the hands of Yugudora and Zifeiyu, the Oak Knights are still gradually splitting. Where is the problem?
Fang Yu thought about it but couldn't figure out the reason for the problem. He was not a person who was keen on fighting for power and did not like to deal with the great guild, so he temporarily put this problem behind his mind and returned to the present.
Since the Battle of the North, the Qihai Traveler completed maintenance and overhaul, and purchased supplies, the money was spent like water. It was then that he had a clear understanding of what it means to maintain a floating ship.
So in this understanding, the Qihai Brigade must have ushered in the first wave of slaughter.
Fortunately, the deal with ‘R’ and Shana saved them again.
However, the more than one million Risel earned at that time has been spent today, and nearly one-fifth of it.
Of course, the remaining money is enough to complete the transaction, but he is not the only one in the Qihai Brigade. Even if he is the captain and the main force in the regiment, he cannot spend more than one million on himself.
The raw materials for alchemy can be used on the books of the Qihai Brigade, about 200,000 Risels. After checking out, Fang Zhushi estimated the remaining funds in the group, but there was only less than one million left.
This is the real spending money like flowing water...
The maintenance of Qihai Traveler, daily procurement of supplies, personnel funds of the Second Regiment, Mr. Limestone and his platform maintenance costs, and his own alchemy, now we have to support the reconstruction of the Oak Knights.
Fang Zhutou once felt the pressure that Tianlan and Miss Aitela felt in daily life.
When he returned to the hall, he couldn't help but mention this to his shipmaster, "I have to think of a way to make some money first."
Although Silweid was not in charge of the finances on the ship, he obviously nodded slightly about this matter after hearing this.
But she had no good idea about this. Although she had experienced a lot along the way since Sir Mawei disappeared, she had never lacked any money.
Sir Mawei's old friend and an ally of the Albert family would always try to take care of her, the "old friend". The noble daughter never worried about making money.
She had never experienced much difficulties in life, and even before she met the purse, her situation was much better than that of the purse.
After hearing Fang Yu's words, Silvede thought for a moment, "Why would I help the captain introduce my father's friends, and maybe someone would want to fund the Qihai Traveler."
But Fang Zhu shook his head.
