Chapter 589: Ask the blacksmith to help improve the equipment
"Improving the inventions of our predecessors?"
Icarus was indeed the most unreliable disciple of the blacksmith. After being taught a lesson several times, Icarus still cared about food rather than beatings. He subconsciously sneered and tried to refute, but was glared back by the blacksmith.
"You continue." The blacksmith pretended to be listening, which frightened all the disciples around him.
The teacher has always been arrogant in the manufacturing industry and has never bothered to do so-called improvements. Why did he take this opinion seriously when a stranger came by and raised it this time?
"It stands to reason that the craftsmanship of the blacksmith shop is absolutely top-notch in the outer city. If word of this kind of thing discovered by the reformers is spread, it will only tarnish the reputation of the blacksmith shop." Li Zheng first praised the vanity of everyone in the blacksmith shop, and then slowly calmed down.
Talking about his thoughts, "But are the things invented and created by predecessors really perfect? Are they really without any flaws?
For example, even if you have never come into contact with intermediate culture medium, you must have heard of it, right?
A few days ago, I used an intermediate culture medium and combined it with the special products of the Vineyard Clan to create a product with an effect between the intermediate culture liquid and the high-level culture liquid. Not only is the cost lower than that of the high-level culture liquid, but the effect is one step higher than that of the intermediate culture liquid.
"Come on, isn't it necessary for this enhanced intermediate culture medium to exist?"
"I would like to ask, if the intermediate culture medium costs one thousand white crystal coins, and the advanced culture medium costs five thousand white crystal coins, but the enhanced version of the intermediate culture medium only costs three thousand white crystal coins, the cost is almost the same as the intermediate culture medium.
Which one would you choose as businessmen?"
In fact, Li Zheng changed the concept here, because the specialty products of the Wengluo tribe he got at that time did not cost any money, so he said here that the cost is almost the same.
It's actually a bit higher.
"I've been talking for a long time but I still haven't gotten to the point..." Icarus muttered in a low voice. They must understand this truth, but improving this kind of thing will hardly help promote the reputation of the store. In the end, they will probably make wedding dresses for others.
ah.
"Don't worry, the main event is next." Li Zheng did not blame Icarus for talking too much, and moistened his throat and continued: "If you are worried about word of mouth, then there is no need to worry.
Granted, the person who invented something in the first place certainly has the right to authorize it, but..."
Having said this, he pretended to smile mysteriously: "Who said we have to improve other people's things? There are so many inventions in our blacksmith shop, can't we continue to improve them? For example, the 'spirit' props made by the blacksmith before are as good as
Why can't a short-range communication equipment continue to be improved into a long-distance communication equipment?
and this."
He took off the 'overweight' necklace from his neck and showed it around: "This necklace is also made by a blacksmith. I know that there is a gravity research institute in the outer city that specializes in developing gravity-related equipment, but who has ever stopped others from doing similar research and development?
Yet?
This necklace can only be used by a single person now, so can it be improved into a second-generation product that can be used by multiple people?
Or it can be directly made into a range of gravity equipment, which can not only be used for daily training, but also can suddenly spread the gravity field during battle, catching the opponent by surprise.
Aren’t these all ideas and business opportunities?
Why do we have to abandon the basics and think about inventing and creating something completely new?”
Li Zheng kept chattering and made a lot of opinions.
At first, his statement was scoffed by the blacksmith's disciples, but when he said those words that could continue to improve the blacksmith's own products, everyone's eyes and breath changed.
Icarus glanced at Pazmiao with evil intentions, thinking that if he improved the other person's favorite product better, wouldn't it be equivalent to slapping him in the face?
Coincidentally, Paz Miao also thought so.
In other words, it's not just the two of them, in fact everyone has similar thoughts.
Especially the mature and prudent senior brother, the bearded crane said thoughtfully: "There is some truth. I used to worry about being in the same class for fear of damaging the relationship between the brothers. Even if some things have obvious flaws, I
I didn’t feel embarrassed to bring it up either.
Now I finally have a legitimate reason to touch their invention."
He thought his voice was low enough when he said this, but he didn't notice that the others all gave him dangerous looks after he muttered.
"Okay!" The blacksmith pondered for a long time, his face changed several times, and finally he praised angrily: "Originally, I haven't determined the questions for today's test. This... what is your name?"
"Teacher, I just introduced him, his name is Li Zheng." Zishu reminded in a low voice with a face turning purple from holding back.
"Oh? Have you introduced me?" The blacksmith looked puzzled, as if he really didn't remember that Zishu introduced him just now: "That would be rude of me."
He nodded apologetically to Li Zheng: "Li Zheng's words inspired me. Today's test question is to randomly choose a product signed by the shop and make improvements on the original basis. Only those who pass this test can continue to stay.
In the blacksmith shop, everyone who failed the test will get out of here!
In addition, let me emphasize again, what I want is improvement, not upgrade!
have you understood?"
Disciples: "I understand!"
"Then, the test begins now!" the blacksmith immediately ordered, and then added: "You have five days to select, plan, and produce. Anything that is not completed within the time limit will be considered failed!"
"is teacher!"
All the disciples dispersed in response and ran to various products to choose from, eager to show off their skills.
Seeing the eight figures jumping around among the many products, the blacksmith nodded with satisfaction. Then he remembered that Li Zheng himself was a customer who came to their blacksmith shop: "You didn't come to our store just to catch up with Zishu, right?"
"Well, since we have met, of course we can talk about the current situation." Li Zheng replied: "But the most important thing is that I want to ask the blacksmith master to help me improve something."
"Oh?" the blacksmith's expression changed. No wonder this guy was so excited just now and suggested that improvement is a way of development. It turned out that he came up with the idea based on his own needs. "What do you want to improve? Take it out and let me see if it's not difficult.
, I will help you do it myself."
Li Zheng was overjoyed when he heard this: "I can't get what I asked for!"
As he spoke, he materialized the lamp holder integrated into the back of his hand and handed it to the blacksmith: "This is it."
"Lamp holder!?" The blacksmith seemed to know about this prop and looked at Li Zheng in surprise: "Why is this thing here with you?"
"I feel ashamed to say that this thing does not belong to me. I got it from someone else." Li Zheng was embarrassed to say that he had robbed it, and the person who originally held the lantern was also killed by him.
"wait."
The blacksmith did not answer the lantern. Instead, he turned around and fetched something like a camera from a counter, and pressed the switch on Li Zheng.
Suddenly, a green light lit up on the top of the thing.
Seeing the green light turn on, the blacksmith was even more surprised: "You have a lamp holder, but you can resist the temptation and not take the initiative to kill people?!"
