"You have a very economical idea that you want to sell to me?"
Old Sam pushed up the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose. His face had just been shaved, and his blue-grey skin had wrinkles. He looked at Duke with a half-smile.
Duke showed just the right amount of nervousness and pride: "Yes, boss."
Old Sam is the owner of Little Sam's card repair shop. He has opened this card repair shop since he was still called Little Sam. After decades of operation, he has become Old Sam.
"Tell me what the idea is."
"An idea that can save you a lot of packaging boxes." Duke introduced it in the same tone as his predecessor, "I have calculated that a packaging box with 1 silver dragon can seal twenty spiritual cards. Every day in the store
You need to use two or three batter boxes, and in a month, you may end up with dozens of silver dragons or even one gold dragon. But my idea can save you at least half of the silver dragons."
"Haha, how about saving so many silver dragons? What's your idea?" Old Sam said funny. He didn't think a fifteen-year-old apprentice could have any good ideas.
Duke also laughed: "This idea requires payment, boss."
Old Sam is a good boss. He has been running Little Sam's card repair shop for decades. He has a good reputation in business and as a person. This is the reason why Duke chose to sell to the other party.
"How much do you think it should be sold for?" Old Sam asked casually.
"How about five golden dragons?" Duke reported a number.
"Five golden dragons!" Old Sam stared.
"It's not expensive. Using my idea, I can save you fifty silver dragons a month, and you can earn back the knowledge of five golden dragons in a year." Duke analyzed seriously, "And
, you can also sell it to other card repair shops, or even go to Boxue Tower to register a patent, which will bring you more wealth!"
"Listen, little Duke, I'm very busy..."
"Are you sure you don't want to listen to my ideas before making a decision? Just listen and you won't lose anything. Whether you are willing to pay five golden dragons or not, the choice is still in your hands."
Seeing that what Duke said made sense, Old Sam couldn't help but stop: "Okay, let's talk about it."
"Then you must first promise that after listening to my idea and recognizing its value, you will pay 5 gold dragons."
"Well, if it's worth that price."
"certainly!"
Duke was sure.
Old Sam nodded seriously and replied: "Then, based on Old Sam's reputation, I guarantee that your idea is really good, and I will give you 5 gold dragons to buy it."
"This idea is a technology, I call it continuous coating technology..." Duke said enthusiastically.
At first, Old Sam was a little disapproving, but after Duke explained the technical principles, Old Sam's eyes quickly lit up. After he outlined it in his mind, he was sure that this technology was feasible.
And the technical difficulty is almost non-existent.
All that is needed is to connect a disposable patting box to a pipe, and connect the other end to a larger patting storage tank, so that the patting can be continuously provided without contact with air.
There is no need to go into the sealing machine and frequently change the wrapping boxes.
"What a genius idea!" Old Sam admired from the bottom of his heart, then looked around cautiously, and pulled Duke to the warehouse to talk, "This is a great idea, little Duke, I haven't thought of it yet.
How great is the prospect? But, there is no doubt that it is definitely worth five golden dragons... No, I will give you ten golden dragons!"
Ten golden dragons?
It exceeded Duke's psychological expectations.
He deliberately showed excitement. After all, he was just a fifteen-year-old kid: "Thank you, thank you boss!"
"This is what you deserve. In addition, little Duke, if you are willing, I plan to turn you into a regular worker. You can follow me and learn skills." Old Sam suddenly reached out and touched Duke's head.
, said with emotion, "I know you are eager to make money and want to open up the Three Seas, but talent is never elusive."
Duke looked puzzled.
Old Sam continued: "Even if you can't open the Three Seas, I still believe that you are an extraordinary child. Perhaps you can use your own wisdom to embark on the path of a scholar as an ordinary person."
"Thank you for your encouragement, but I want to try to open the spiritual sea first." Duke smiled.
"Then you go and give it a try first."
"Um...ten golden dragons haven't been given to me yet."
…
Old Sam was an honest and trustworthy boss, and ten golden dragons was not a small sum, but he quickly collected it and handed it over to Duke, officially buying the continuous coating technology.
A contract was also made, in duplicate.
Duke signed his name on it and pressed his thumbprint.
"I see you can't wait any longer. Go ahead and I'll give you three days' leave. When you come back, you'll be given full wages." Old Sam put away the contract and smiled brightly.
This idea could make him a lot of money.
"I'll be back soon."
Duke walked out of Little Sam Shoka Shop with ten golden dragons in his arms.
Looking back at the shop sign, he also had a lot of emotions in his heart. As Old Sam said, even if he cannot open the Three Seas, he may still be able to embark on the path of a scholar.
The continuous supply and coating technology is the best proof.
"However, I still want to be an arcane mage more than a scholar!" After withdrawing his thoughts, Duke walked onto the street without looking back and went straight to the pharmacy in the town.
When he returned to his rented bungalow and closed the doors and windows, he couldn't wait to sit cross-legged on the bed and took several deep breaths to calm down his excitement.
The sharpness in his eyes flashed.
He raised his head and drank the medicine in the glass tube in one gulp. Then he poured the water he had prepared into the glass tube and rinsed it. He also drank it cleanly, making sure not a drop of medicine residue was left.
While waiting for the medicine to take effect.
He opened a well-thumbed book on his bedside, "Unlocking the Spiritual Arcana", which was a popular science book that mainly explained the spiritual arcane system.
There are records on how to open the sea of qi, sea of blood and sea of spirit.
The probability of opening the Spirit Sea is the lowest. As for the methods, the book introduces two methods.
One is a genius method of opening. Through daily meditation, emptying the mind, and following spiritual guidance, one can spontaneously open the spiritual sea. It is usually easiest to open between the ages of ten and fifteen.
If you are over fifteen years old, you must rely on the second method to open it. Use the awakening potion to forcibly increase the degree of compatibility with spirituality, and then use meditation to find the spiritual sea and break into it.
The probability of success with this method is not high.
In fact, whether it is a sea of qi, a sea of blood or a sea of spirit, you need to use potions to open it. The success rate is very low, and the future achievements are far less than opening it by yourself.
"I have a golden finger, I can definitely open the spiritual sea!"
Holding the belief that he would succeed, Duke felt a cool breath rising in his abdomen. He decisively put down the book in his hand, adjusted his posture and began to meditate.
Empty your mind and tame your soul.
You can receive spiritual guidance.
This is also the reason why people name extraordinary power spirituality. This mysterious power has unparalleled spirituality, just like a small beast, a small flower, or a small river. It can guide the growth of all things, and can also be tamed and grown by all things.
"null!"
"null!"
"null!"
The cool breath of the Awakening Potion makes it easier for Duke to clear his mind of distracting thoughts, and then he can relax without any distractions.
When all distracting thoughts were cleared, he could no longer feel his own thoughts, and time seemed to fade away, and there was no longer any concept of up, down, and four directions.
At this moment.
A little light bloomed in the void, followed by a sky full of stars, as if it had fallen into an ocean of starlight.
boom!
Thinking returned to its original state, Duke "saw" his own spiritual sea.
