Lord of Arcane

Chapter 113 Business Wizards?

Tower of Time, Arcane Gardens.

Under Xia Duo's exclusive apple tree, the five-person study group unbuttoned their robes and sat in a circle.

Except for Edric and Dean, because they were not used to the dense positive energy environment in the Arcane Garden when they first arrived, they were wiping their sweat and fanning the air with their hands.

Everyone else has already gotten used to the environment here, especially Xia Duo. From being unsuitable at the beginning to being at ease now, it only took a few months.

After Edric and Dean calmed down a little, Xia Duo took out the key points and the recommended book list that he had sorted out last night, and passed them on to the four of them.

"Here are some main points I have listed, and some recommended books. Please keep them in mind. We will study magic theory here in the morning and exchange ideas in the afternoon. If you need a demonstration, stay in the magic experiment." room."

The four nodded.

Xia Duo saw that they took out a pen and paper and began to transcribe the key points and recommended bibliography, and continued, "To answer other apprentices' questions to earn the fee for renting a spell laboratory, just save some time in the morning, start tomorrow, forget about today. "

"Xia Duo, you can't!" Dean suddenly put down the quill in his hand, "I just became a regular, and I don't know many questions myself! How can I answer them for others!"

Others have similar thoughts, and Edric even bluntly said that he has given up magic for more than a year, and he is not sure to answer others' questions.

Xia Duo sighed:

"Edrich, Dean, you have to be clear, it is those ordinary apprentices who are begging us, not us begging them. We spend much less on answering them than other people outside, even if the quality is poor temporarily, it doesn't matter. Just make progress slowly.

"I will allow all of them to attend and answer each question. I only charge 5 gold coins for each question. Among them, those who spend more will be given individual guidance at the end of the month. As long as there is the first apprentice who becomes a regular, the price will be increased later. You can't drive them away."

After finishing speaking, Xia Duo saw that the four of them looked at him with strange eyes, especially Edric's hesitating expression, which was particularly awkward.

"Edrich, what do you have to say?"

"Xia Duo, I think you are a natural born businessman!" Edric's face was complicated. In Savile Town, there are no so-called extra benefits for big customers, because most of the products are easy to sell.

Sammy and Devine have never seen such a method. Although their family is in business, they are just small businessmen, just earning a living.

"Don't say that, I'm a man who wants to become a grand arcanist!" Xia Duo immediately spoke righteously.

He is from the earth, and he has seen many routines of taking money from customers on weekdays. He hasn't mentioned membership cards, this drill and that coupon, for fear of scaring these natives.

Netheril seems to have been established for more than 800 years, but its social form is still similar to that of the Middle Ages in the west of the earth. Most of the commodity transactions are based on daily necessities, and commerce is very underdeveloped.

The so-called chamber of commerce here, in layman's terms, is actually a caravan, selling items from one place to another. The large chamber of commerce has multiple caravans, multiple trading routes, and even fixed bases.

Small chambers of commerce generally have very few caravans and trade routes, and the smallest ones are peddlers walking in the countryside, taking goods from large chambers of commerce and selling them to the countryside.

The business model is extremely simple and simple.

Xia Duo doesn't really think that he is some kind of business genius, he just has one more knowledge of the world than others, that's all.

……

When discussing how the study group would answer questions and solve problems for other apprentices, Eldridge and the others also copied the magic theory thread and recommended bibliography compiled by Xia Duo for them.

After that, Xia Duo will give them tutoring according to this teaching plan, until they meet Xia Duo's requirements and become real communicable objects.

About an hour before lunch, Xia Duo stopped teaching, walked out of the shade, and started physical training under the puzzled eyes of Edric and others.

After two magical dreams, Xia Duo's physical fitness has already surpassed that of ordinary people. There is no reason for such a good body to be left there to rust, it must be used well.

Xia Duo mainly trains endurance, agility, and coordination. He has never thought of cutting people with a knife. These attributes are very practical even for mages.

In particular, the productivity of mages is basically obtained from these aspects, such as manufacturing magic scrolls, because there is no scroll production machine, so they can only be made by hand.

If the hand and brain are not coordinated, how much material will be wasted!This is like the brain has learned, but the hands have not learned well, how miserable!

Sensitivity refers to the ability to respond and perceive. When encountering an enemy or a special situation, one can react quickly. Sometimes a little bit of quick reaction can mean the difference between life and death.

As for stamina, it is related to spellcasting ability. Although stamina is not equal to spellcasting ability, strong stamina means stronger spellcasting ability. When there is no alternative casting tool, it is good to be able to cast one more 0-ring spell.

Xia Duo was sweating profusely, and Sammy and Dewan couldn't sit still. Before the orc tide mission, they also had a period of physical training with Xia Duo.

During the mission, only Xia Duo behaved the most calmly, to a certain extent, he was not even inferior to those professional soldiers and adventurers.

Sami and Devine glanced at each other, unanimously took off their outer clothes, and followed Xia Duo to train.

The collective atmosphere is the most contagious. Immediately afterwards, Dean also took off his coat and joined in the physical training. Only Edric did not move.

He has neither participated in the orc tide mission, nor trained with Xia Duo before, the environment of the Arcane Garden itself is hot enough, and there are meaningless consumption actions.

This made it a little difficult for him to accept.

But seeing other people in the study group stepping out of the shade and sweating in the sun, Eldridge felt more and more awkward, as if he had been abandoned.

After hesitating for a while, he finally followed the example of others and took off his coat to join the training.

He clumsily imitated Xia Duo's movements, but couldn't figure it out. He scratched his head anxiously. Seeing this, Xia Duo quickly stopped his training and began to point out his movements.

Xia Duo suddenly discovered that he had inadvertently completed another assimilation of collective attributes, and he already had such influence before he knew it.

……

Soon, other team members except Xia Duo were too tired to move, only Xia Duo persisted for a whole hour under their admiring eyes.

Finally, Xia Duo stopped and went to the restaurant with them when the "work reminder" came from Ta Ling.
