Studying Science in the Alternate World

  Chapter 14 Old Sam leaves

   "Little Duke has no money, but I am optimistic about his future, so I don't want to transfer the money to him. Is there any problem with that, Best?" Old Sam made a pretense.

  The patent of the continuous pulp supply system has been sold to others by him.

   This kind of patent sold in private is bound by the contract, and even the title of the technical inventor is transferred, so both he and Duke Jr. have to remain silent.

   "Are you crazy, or is Little Duke your illegitimate son?" Best cried.

  Old Sam put on a straight face: "Best, what does this have to do with you? You are your external card maker, and the card repair shop pays you on time every month. You don't need to take care of the rest...From now on, Little Duke is the owner of this little Sam's card repair shop, and nothing else has changed."

  The news is too sudden.

  Everyone couldn’t come to their senses, especially Bob, the regular worker. He was the veteran of Little Sam’s Card Shop.

  However, the store belongs to Old Sam, and Old Sam can transfer it to whoever he wants.

  He had to stand up and say, "Boss, it's really... sad that you're leaving, but I also believe that little... Duke will be a good boss."

   "You're right, Bob." Old Sam laughed.

  Duke said: "Bob, after I take over the card repair shop, your job and treatment will not change. There are three card repair masters, and your treatment is the same, and the same is true for the three apprentices. In short, everything is the same as when old Sam was here, even the name of the shop will always be Little Sam Repair Card Shop."

   The two card repairers, Diranko and Sane, have no objections.

  Apprentice Bobby has already figured it out after Bob's slap education, besides, he, Thomas, and another newly recruited apprentice, Levin, have no right to speak at all.

  Old Sam looked at Best.

  Best snorted: "What can I say, old Sam, this is your shop, and it's your freedom to transfer it to whoever you want, I just work with money."

   "Then, it's settled." Old Sam said, "I'll take little Duke to go through the formalities in the next few days, officially transfer the store, and then explain the purchase channel. Bobbi will take care of the store more."

   "Okay, both bosses." Bob changed his words quickly.

  Old Sam immediately took Duke to go through the formalities. After he made a lot of money by reselling the patents, he no longer wanted to stay in Sheshou Town, and only wanted to go to Shenjiao City to reunite with his family as soon as possible.

  Wait until the two leave.

  Best immediately complained: "Old Sam is really confused, and he didn't ask us why he transferred the shop to Little Duke. That kid is clumsy as an apprentice. I'm afraid he will close down the card repair shop soon."

   "Best, don't be so pessimistic, Little Duke has opened the spiritual sea after all."

   "So what, neither of you and I have opened the spiritual sea. Are there few people in our town who have opened the spiritual sea? You also saw the public class in the morning, hundreds of spiritual apprentices who took drugs!"

   "At least it is more reliable than ordinary people taking over."

   "Hehe, I don't think so."

  Best complained a few words, and when he saw that others didn't agree with him, he gradually died down. With a trace of anger, Shuka scolded the new apprentice Levin from time to time.

  …

   "The store has four facades, with a large yard in the middle and a large warehouse in the backyard. You can live in it after changing it, saving you even renting a house." Old Sam said as he walked.

  Duke bared his teeth: "If you said it earlier, I would have saved a lot of money."

  He just rented a new house, and the landlord who quit the rent immediately may not be willing to refund the rent unless he can find someone to sublet immediately.

   "It's just a small amount of money. The monthly income of the card repair shop, after deducting all the wages and expenses, will be at least one gold dragon." Old Sam said indifferently, "And I paid this year's business tax ahead of time, and you will make a net profit in the next few months... Anyway, work hard, and I expect you to become a polymath."

  Following old Sam, he went to several institutions in the town, spent three days before and after, and finally ran through all the formalities.

   There are also various purchase channels, and Old Sam also handed them all over to Duke.

   So far.

  Little Sam Shuka shop has truly become Duke's industry.

   On the night of the third day, Duke was the host and called everyone in the store to hold a farewell banquet for old Sam in a big restaurant in the town.

   In one meal, I ate fourteen silver dragons.

   is placed before Duke, which is an unimaginable number for Duke.

  Wait until the next morning, old Sam left Snakehead Town with big bags and small bags. Duke sent him to the black beetle car, watched the black beetle car leave before turning back.

   "Huh!"

   "Old Sam is gone, and little Sam gave it to me at the repair card shop."

   "In Snake Town, in this world, I finally have my own property to settle down in. The next step is to practice with peace of mind and earnestly repair the card!"

  Duke walked briskly all the way back to Little Sam's Shuka shop.

   "Boss!" Bob greeted warmly.

  Duke glanced at the repair area and asked casually, "Master Best, didn't you come to work today?"

   "Yes, but Master Best Xiuka explained last night that he might not come today because of something."

"I see."

  Duke didn't say anything. The external card repairer has some privileges, and he can't be as strict as formal workers and apprentices.

  He went straight to the No. 4 station. Originally, this spare station was mainly used by Old Sam, but now it became his exclusive station. There was a lot of waste cards piled up on the table, and he basically spent all his free time on the maintenance and learning of waste cards, trying to practice the skills of repairing spirit cards as soon as possible.

   When encountering some difficulties, I went to ask the two card repairers Dilanco and Sane for advice.

   One day passed like this.

  Duke stayed in the store alone after Bob got off work. He planned to change the warehouse behind the store to create a living room of his own, and he would live in the store from now on.

  Busy until midnight, he closed the door and went back.

   "Xiao Yi, how is my cultivation going?"

   "The master has now condensed one hundred and thirty-four drops of spirit liquid, and the speed of condensation has dropped significantly compared to before, but there is still a long way to go before the condensate becomes a line."

  The symbol of a one-star spiritual apprentice is gas-gathering liquid, and the symbol of a two-star spiritual apprentice is condensed liquid into a line.

  The two are a relationship between quantitative change and qualitative change.

  The spiritual sea seems to be boundless, but the amount of spiritual fluid that can be stored is actually limited. Different people have different constitutions, and the amount of spiritual fluid that can be stored is also different, ranging from a hundred drops to a thousand drops.

  Low amount of ectoplasmic fluid does not mean poor talent; a lot of ectoplasmic fluid does not count as extraordinary talent.

  Because after the condensate forms a line, it is the energy line that can determine the strength of the spiritual power, and the energy line has already surpassed the level of relying on the accumulation of numbers.

   What determines the strength of a spiritual apprentice is the energy circuit that can be constructed by the energy line—the ring!

certainly.

  For Duke, the more spiritual fluid he condenses now, at least the time he uses a ring of Sand Eagle and the number of times he shoots will increase accordingly, and his life-saving ability will be stronger.
