Chapter 606: Chapter 171: Hiss! Such Terror _1
The completion of a new technology requires a period of time.
Link’s successful reimplantation of the four disembodied physical talents back onto Lokan does not mean that the concept of “constructions” is entirely realized.
His so-called success is that he has gone through the four crucial steps to realize the “constructions” concept: carrier pre-fabrication, talent/witchcraft-like ability bearing, linking/etching, fusion. These steps have eliminated the major obstacles to realizing the concept.
The subsequent stages will require a considerable number of experiments, data collection, and process optimization before the final implementation and massive promotion could be done.
Then, depending on the promotion and outcomes, will decide whether “construction wizards” qualifies as a brand-new wizard sect.
Alternatively, a step back, whether “constructions” can be considered a major and prioritized choice to enhance the combat ability of lower level wizards with less potential for upward mobility.
In turn, opening up a new profession resembling those of pharmacists and alchemists, namely constructors.
Sage Serene fully understands this, and therefore, after watching Lokan’s demonstration, she found Link and proposed, “How about you leading the teaching and research team and the Palo Sage army for a collaboration on an ’empowerment’ potion project? You can use this opportunity to conduct some experiments, collect some data, and perfect the plan.”
“Sure, thank you, Serene Wizard.”
Without hesitating, Link immediately agreed.
This was a good thing and the very opportunity he needed to improve the “construction” concept.
“Okay. Renee will speak to you about the specifics. From now on, she’ll be responsible for liaising with the Palo Sage Army.”
The sage of Selene finished speaking and left the underground third floor and headed towards the top floor office.
That day, under Renee’s persuasion, she agreed to visit the fairy world. After returning, she was informed about what happened to Lokan.
Sage Selene’s mood was extremely complex, and she needed some solitude for serenity.
Since, due to Sharia’s status, power, and rank, her coordinate position did not correspond with that of the Palo Sage army, the duties instead fell on to Renee to liaise with the Palo Sage army.
In that case, let the now-busy Renee have an in-depth discussion with Link.
“Let’s go to your office and have a chat.”
Renee said, with the wheels in her mind spinning much like Assad’s. After finishing her discussions, she wanted to sneak a box of high-quality tea on the way out.
“Sure.”
Link didn’t mind Renee’s scheming. In fact, he welcomed it warmly and agreed readily.
Ever since the “small world” continuously advanced in the post-disaster reconstruction under Franda’s efforts, the ecological environment had greatly improved, allowing for the cultivation of more and better tea trees.
Link had been releasing more and better tea to the outside world in various ways.
This was also considered efficient resource utilization.
It not only helped in expanding his network but also promoted tea.
Fashion trends have always trickled down from the top.
As more and more high-level wizards began to drink tea, particularly after Dean Frist entertained his honorable guests multiple times with the finest tea given by Link, tea drinking had become a sensation in the entire Ravensmouth Special Area.
It could satisfy one’s cravings all the while retaining the benefits of many potions.
If both cost magic stones, why suffer unnecessarily?
Tea-drinking series have even become the most significant source of income for the Grande Potion Shop!
The created current of magic stone income was more substantial than several high-level potions calculated on the basis of second-level magic stones.
Every day, the quantity of tea and tea drinks flowing from the Grande Potion Shop to the Southern District and West District was so large that, if the packaging boxes were aligned, they would circle Ravensmouth city several times.
There were even people in the West District engaged in smuggling tea and tea drinks, acquiring at cost or below cost, then transporting them to the neighboring Shadow City Zone and Mesopotamia Prefecture, to earn a profit margin.
Jasmine was already planning to open a new shop specializing in tea in the East District and a Grande Potion Shop branch selling mainly tea drinks.
Then, the distribution rights in the South District would be auctioned off or a few franchisees would be recruited, primarily selling low-end tea products and supplementarily a few kinds of hot-selling mid-end tea products.
She also planned to find a few strong groups in the Black Gloves Organization in the West District and supply them with goods for smuggling.
The aim was not for profit, but to rapidly occupy the market and form brand power.
After all, several families and organizations were already trying to emulate the tea and tea drinks of the Grande Potion Shop.
Also, perhaps this could alleviate the hostility caused by “Everything goes as you wish” in the West District recently.
Busy markets, with benefits coming in and going out, don’t just work with fighting and killing.
Most importantly, and also Jasmine’s most cautious plan, was to open a high-end club in the North District, mainly meant for making friends over tea.
The plan to open a high-end club was not to be officially launched in the near future, but Assad would continue to prepare for it.
This matter must be taken slowly and cannot be rushed.
In Link’s words, one shouldn’t take too large steps; otherwise, there’s a risk of straining oneself.
The two arrived at Link’s office, where Jasmine happened to be boiling water for tea.
“Oh, what a coincidence.”
Renee’s attitude toward Jasmine had always been somewhat cynical, due to her sister Elise.
“What coincidence, I’m waiting on purpose.”
Jasmine responded directly to the bizarre attitude with honesty and did not spoil Renee, “I thought you’d come to talk to Link when you got back, so I prepared in advance. I also thought I’d listen in, so a certain someone couldn’t bad-mouth me behind my back.”
“Cough… Let’s get to the point.”
Link cleared his throat and interrupted the spell.
Otherwise, these two could squabble all day.
