"What are you going to do with him? Do you want to help him get married to Sister Xingzhu?" Shao Dianluan smiled evilly.
"Your sister Xingzhu didn't help you give birth to the child. Is there any need to push her into the fire pit?" Ding Kui counterattacked lightly.
"Lu Chao is a well-established person, why did he become a pit of fire?"
When it came to giving birth to a child, Shao Dianluan felt a little guilty. After all, he had not discussed it with Ding Kui beforehand.
"Isn't such a brainless rookie a pit of fire? I can slap him to death, but he is still a forbidden person." Ding Kui was very disdainful.
Lu Chao was very wronged. It was not good for him to go against anyone, but he had to go against Ding Kui, who had understood a little bit of the law of the air element. He had a higher understanding of the air element than him, and he was also a knight holding a magic weapon. He panicked and said:
He was defeated in one round. If he fought again at a different time and place, he should be able to last a few more rounds.
Ruan Xingzhu was not found this time and suffered a big loss. He and his men were imprisoned. Because of his noble status, he was kept alone in a room similar to a guest room, so he was not tortured.
"I want to see Shaodian Luan! In the name of Prince Lu, I request to see the eldest princess of your country!" he kept shouting.
He never wanted to become someone else's prisoner. He had murderous intent to seal several important acupuncture points, making him unable to use magic. He felt very uncomfortable. He was used to living a good life and desperately longed for freedom.
But no one paid attention to him. It wasn't until the evening that someone came and dropped a plate of dry food and water, and changed the dung bucket. During this period, they didn't mean to talk to him at all.
Captured nobles receive special treatment, which can meet basic physiological requirements and provide a stable environment for rest. This is a common practice in the Shenyuan Continent. If you don't want to kill a noble captive, you'd better treat him well, otherwise the nobles across the continent will remember you.
Cruel, I will definitely not show mercy when I encounter you in the future.
"You caused that trouble and clamored to see me, what should I do?" Shao Dianluan threw the question to Ding Kui.
"Hey, aren't you pretending? I don't believe that people from Zhoucheng don't know whose territory this is, and the old god is actually asking the master to come out and answer. If it weren't for Master Gui's face, I would chop him with a knife
." This was what Ding Kui expected.
Lu Chao would definitely not talk to him, otherwise he would be asking for trouble.
Master Gui really did not want Lu Chao to die in Shaodian Kingdom like this.
"What? Ding Kui captured Lu Chao, haha, it's interesting. But we can't let Lu Chao die in our country, otherwise Fengshen Courtyard will have an excuse. Come, summon Rongci, and arrange for people to rush to Juyang City as soon as possible, and take him with you
Leave Lu Chao and return to Lu State safely." Gui Jing received a message from Ruan Xingzhu.
"Hey, that kid knew that I rejected this marriage, so he deliberately didn't notify me when he arrived in Zhenjing City, and went to Juyang City to make himself miserable. Ding Kui did a good job! He didn't make me look the wrong way, and indirectly helped me teach that kid a lesson.
Haha, with Zhu Bi's character, he should be able to deduce it once. Although he will not fall into the realm, he will not be able to run away with a slight injury. With Ding Kui supporting Xiao Zhu, there will be more room for growth, which is a good thing!" He smiled sinisterly.
In the evening of the next day, an old magician with a Chinese character face walked out of the Southern Magic branch, looked up at the sky, and murmured: "Am I fast enough? Hey, the teacher still calls me every time he runs errands.
I treat it like a child. Come on, let’s drive one more county road. No one will die after one night, right?"
With the help of Ruan Xingzhu and Qingyang Zi, Qianyou made the first luminous array disk. He looked at the milky white light excitedly, "It's done! This can be used for at least a year."
"Is the peach wood board too rough? How about adding a glass base and crystal cover, which will look much more noble." Qingyang Zi was not satisfied with the first test product.
"To make it so fancy, it will increase the cost a lot." Ruan Xingzhu didn't understand the craftsman's idea.
"Not much. It adds up to less than two gold coins. If I sell it, I should be able to sell it for this amount." Qingyang Zi stretched out a palm.
"Five gold coins?" Qianyou asked.
Qingyang Zi nodded, Ruan Xingzhu looked disbelieving.
"No, no, no!" Ding Kui came out of nowhere, "At least ten gold coins. This thing is not for common people, but for the rich to show off."
He pointed at Qian You: "How many can you make in a month? This is not a mass-produced thing. As long as I put a few at home, there will definitely be people on the market asking for it at a high price. It has to be so that no one can queue up to buy it."
"Yes, even if all the shells are made by disciples, the installation of the magic core and the activation of the formation disk must be completed by Lord Ganyou. It is an instrument that only a magician can make, and will be sought after by wealthy businessmen and nobles." Qingyang Zi is knowledgeable and can understand what Ding Kui means.
His products are all high-quality, and many people pay high prices to buy them. He is a master of hand-made luxury goods. The simplest thing can sell for ten or eight gold coins.
"You can't make much by selling ten gold coins. Can you make a thousand gold coins a month? Don't you think the price has dropped?" Ruan Xingzhu is no longer a girl from a poor ravine, and she doesn't care about tens of thousands of gold coins. .
The wind array alone can bring her stable income. Ding Kui's railway bureau has her shares, which can earn her at least several thousand gold coins a month.
"I will not participate in this transaction. The two of them will discuss it. What I want is not money, but magic items to enter ordinary people's homes." Ding Kui knew that he had been misunderstood.
There is nothing that can be done about it. His ability to make money is quite outstanding, and he will be associated with making money if he does anything new.
"Is this matter that important? Don't fool me." Ruan Xingzhu looked at Ding Kui warily.
"The tide of elemental energy is on the rise, low-level magic cores will flood the market, and the Magic Club will have more and more inventory. I will try to use some to help the Magic Club make money."
Part of what was said was the content of the negotiation between Ding Kui and Kuai Lian, but those present could not hear it.
"Then how much can this consume?" Qian You didn't understand. He consumes up to several hundred a year.
"If you can do it, others can do it. How many magicians are there in the kingdom? The results of my research will be shared with the Magic Association for free."
Ruan Xingzhu heard some clues and asked: "Is this related to the General Assembly's declaration of neutrality?"
"Ahem, cough, cough," Ding Kui pretended to cough to cover up his embarrassment, "Well, I can't influence the decision of the Magic Association." He answered vaguely.
"Tch." Ruan Xingzhu rolled his eyes.
Qianyou and Qingyangzi looked at each other with knowing eyes.
The three of them all have an inseparable relationship with Ding Kui, and these things are tacitly understood.
"Teacher, using magic core in this way is still a bit wasteful. You have to find another way to gain the recognition of craftsmen across the country." Qingyang Zi hopes that Ding Kui can surpass the achievements of craftsmen across the country.
"I have another idea, which is not very mature yet. I will share it with you this time. I hope we can discuss it together."
As the saying goes, the three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang, and Ding Kui came to find the cobblers.
Several people were very interested and calmed down to listen to what Ding Kui said.
"We know that the magic clock has a very complicated structure. The principle is to use magic power exhaustion to calculate time, so that the magic guild can maintain it. It cannot appear in ordinary people's homes.
The royal family has enshrinements and can use a magic clock, but ordinary people, even grand dukes, don’t have one at home, so they can only use simple timekeeping tools instead, and go to the Magic Guild for calibration within a period of time.”
Having said this, Ding Kui took out a drawing and some small circles.
"These are gears. You can use them to build a clock. All you need is a constant source of power to push the gears and make the clock on this drawing rotate on time."
Qing Yangzi asked for the drawings, but no one argued with him, and the remaining two couldn't understand them either.
"Oh, it's not complicated, but these gears are not easy to make. They need to be very precise to ensure the accuracy of the clock. Even if there is a mold, it will take a lot of work to polish." It didn't take him long to understand the drawings. He is indeed a master craftsman.
"Is the magic core used as the source of power?" Ruan Xingzhu grasped an important point.
"Wind drives the gear? It's too difficult!" Qian You shook his head.
"Of course not using wind power. I have two plans. One is vibration, which requires earth magic; the second is rotation, which requires water magic." Ding Kui raised two fingers.
"You know more about magic than I do." Qian You looked at Ding Kui in surprise.
"I told him." Ruan Xingzhu came to Ding Kui's rescue.
"Oh, no wonder." Qian You's tone was meaningful.
"The rotation is relatively stable and suitable for driving the gear set." Qingyangzi doesn't know magic and can only judge it from mechanical movement.
"Well, you can create an annular water flow device, fill it with heavy water and flow it inside, and then use the principle of a water wheel to bring it to the gear set. The disadvantage of this solution is that it is too large, and the advantage is that it consumes less energy." Ding Kui glanced at Ruan Xingzhu. .
"A bigger one is acceptable!" Qingyang Zi calculated the approximate size. "It's less than half the size of a wardrobe. People who can afford a clock will have room to put it."
"The magic that promotes the flow of heavy water is very simple. It should be simpler than my wind array." Ruan Xingzhu doesn't understand water magic, but he can calculate it based on the air magic.
"Well, push the gear set to drive the pendulum, and then use the pendulum to drive another gear set." Ding Kui explained to Qingyang Zi, who nodded frequently.
He probably knew the principle of the pendulum clock, but he was unable to copy it. He could only tell it to Qingyang Zi and let the master copy it.
Qingyang Zi couldn't imagine a pendulum clock out of thin air. It was different if someone gave him guidance. With the help of real gears, he could immediately build a complex gear set in his mind, and new ideas kept emerging.
"Does the clock work?" Qianyou asked weakly.
The Magic Guild will ring a big copper bell at seven o'clock every morning and evening, allowing people who hear the bell to adjust the time. Ordinary people do not need to be too precise.
The other three people responded at the same time: "It works!"
Qian You shrank his neck and stopped worrying about this issue.
"Hmph, are you helping your new sister-in-law make money?" Ruan Xingzhu couldn't help but think of Li Fei.
"If my family can do it, haha, why not let my family earn it? The key is to use the magic core energy efficiently. Whichever type of magic is the most economical will be used. I didn't set anyone to do it in advance."
