“How much cotton can these spinning wheels spin every day?”
Relying on his appearance and sincerity, Annan approached the female workers who had not yet started work in the early morning.
The shy young girl did not dare to talk to him, while the women talked non-stop around Annan.
"Why don't you start working yet!" The factory boss came in at this time, and the female workers returned to their positions one after another, revealing Annan. "Uh... Sir Annan?"
He quickly restrained his arrogant attitude.
"You know me?"
"Mr. Andrew Luna said you are staying here temporarily." The factory owner answered Annan's doubts, "Don't you know yet? This house belongs to him."
No wonder Andrew Luna put himself here.
"I'm a little curious about these machines, how are they made?"
"Goblin Workshop. Those goblins are lazy and ugly, but they are good at building these machines."
Annan looked at the spinning wheel in action: "Do they have better machines?"
"Well... because Mr. Andrew Luna's rent is too high, we can't afford a very good spinning wheel..."
The efficiency of the spinning wheel is similar to what Annan investigated in the past two days.
"Can I take a look here?"
"sure!"
The factory owner also hopes that Annan can intercede for him. Anyway, there are no secrets that can be stolen here. "Do you need me to accompany you to visit?"
"No, thank you."
"You are too kind..."
The boss left in a good mood. Occasionally, he could hear repeated "thank you" coming from his mouth.
Annan first got close to the spinning wheels of the young girls. As a result, they became clumsy due to nervousness and could not spin the yarn well, so he had to watch the women again.
The spinning jenny gradually formed an outline in my mind.
Once you have an idea, you should implement it. But Annan can't do it. He needs to find a suitable candidate.
He came to the Morrowind Tavern next door and knocked on the office at the end of the corridor on the second floor. The clerk passing by said that the boss was downstairs, so Annan came to the lobby again.
Some eyes fell on him, vaguely scanning the mage's robe and leaving part of it. After Andrew Luna waved to him, another part also disappeared.
Annan saw that Michael and the female dwarf were also there. As he walked down the stairs, a guest's outdated joke came from the table next to him:
"A warrior wants to avenge the death of his brother. The elf says, my bow and arrows will help you. The druid says, this forest will help you. The bard says, my song is with you. The necromancer says,
And your brother."
With bursts of low laughter to drive away the dullness of the tavern during the day, Annan came to Soruman Bronzebeard and the others.
"We were just about to go to your place, what's the matter?"
Soruman Bronzebeard knew that Annan would not come over for no reason.
"I'm looking for Michael." Annan looked at the magician who put down his wine glass after hearing this, "Can you borrow a magic item that can release defensive spells?"
"borrow?"
"You know, the special characteristics of warlocks..." Annan felt helpless, "I don't know if I can learn defensive spells."
Just summoning the blue dragon is not enough, it cannot stay by Annan's side all the time. Spellcasters who do not know how to defend against spells are no different from civilians and are extremely fragile.
"I'll bring it to you in the next few days," Michael said.
Annan talked about another thing: "Where are the goblins in Breeze City? I want to find them to make something."
"Why do you want to find them?" Andrew Luna thought of bad things. "They are greedy and cunning, and they are definitely not good partners..."
"I want to try to make a machine."
"A machine? A spinning wheel kind of thing?" Andrew Luna recalled the special structure. "Goblins do like these machines. But don't just find a bunch of goblins. They will just eat up your ideas and make you owe them a debt."
Ass money.”
"Then I'd better find a carpenter."
"Don't you have a suitable candidate?" Soruman Bronzebeard said suddenly, "The goblin reading on the crossroads, he looks much smarter."
"Do gnomes in the wild also make spinning wheels?"
"I don't know, it's just a suggestion."
"If the goblin you are talking about is very smart, it will have no trouble making a spinning wheel." Michael picked up the wine glass, "The goblin's talent for machines is like a warlock. Just think about it and you can get the desired results."
Annan felt that Michael was belittling the warlocks as a mage, but he might also be overthinking it.
"You are a warlock, and you have been involved in the whirlpool...Leave it to me. I will ask the mage apprentice to take the trip for you." Michael shook the wine glass and watched the wine form a whirlpool. "Tell the goblin the address."
I."
"The four-way forest fork from Pinglin Town to Breeze City." Annan thought for a while and said, "If he is not there, you can find him from the goblin lair in the Lost Forest to the west from the fork."
"knew."
Michael quickly arranged for the mage apprentice to set off in the afternoon, and also brought Annan two protective spell scrolls and a detection spell scroll, namely shield spell, iron armor spell and malicious detection.
There are also enough magic materials to maintain the meditation ritual for a week.
Annan also told him three pieces of bad news very efficiently: he couldn't learn any of these spells.
"It's like the 'favor of the goddess of misfortune'..." Michael described Annan's strange power, "Don't be discouraged, you can still use magic props."
Things worn by the mage such as mage robes, rings, and wands can be engraved with defensive or offensive spells.
Some are like magic scrolls, which can only be used once. Others limit the number of times they can be used per day. The price of the former is only one-third of that of a magic scroll with the same spell, while the price of the latter increases to five to twenty times in an instant.
For example, a magic ring engraved with a one-time arcane missile costs about 50 gold coins, but a magic ring that can use arcane missiles once a day costs no less than 700 gold coins.
The good news is that after getting Jenny's loom, Annan may not be able to afford the magic ring.
Michael was helping him with the invitation to the goblins, and Andrew Luna would have the waiter deliver the daily food every day. So Annan didn't go out all day today, staying in the attic to meditate. After reaching the limit of daily meditation, he started to think about what to do.
Spinning Jenny sold.
Reproducing the spinning Jenny does not mean that a lot of gold coins will fall into your pocket. There is no patent in this world, and the spinning machine is really simple. As long as Annan sells the finished product, within a month, the same spinning machine will be all over Breeze City.
Spinning mill.
Therefore, it is best to cooperate with nobles who will make merchants fearful.
The only nobles Annan knew and could trust were the Winchet family.
It has nothing to do with Ms. Wine...at least not much - Ms. Wine's niece is Lindy, Lindy is Mr. Victor's apprentice, and Annan believes in Victor.
Annan ran down to the attic and found Soruman Bronzebeard in the tavern.
