my magic industry

Chapter 2 Cleansing

"Xia Lin, why aren't you wearing the robe of a military mage?"

Satisfied for a while, Harper saw that Xia Lin was staring at a pair of dead fish eyes and didn't care about his attire at all. Dissatisfied, he knocked on the side and reminded him that he wanted him to boast about his new clothes.

Although the textile industry of the Sassen Empire was extremely developed, commoners could not always afford new clothes, let alone such blended mage robes.

"After all, they are new clothes. I plan to wear them when I go home in two days. Harper, are you going home now?"

Xia Lin didn't follow Harper's wishes. He lied casually and changed the topic back to his friend.

If possible, he would never want to wear the robe that symbolizes high-level cannon fodder in his life, but now is not the time to explain these things to his friends.

"Of course not! Drama and the others rented a carriage, and everyone pooled up some money to go to the tavern to celebrate together. I'm about to leave now, Xia Lin, are you coming?"

"No need, you know that I can't even take out a copper biss. By the way, Harper, I remember that your family runs a tailor shop, right? Where do you get your cloth? It's convenient to tell Me?"

The actions of these young people reminded Xia Lin of his graduation party in his previous life. Xia Lin smiled and declined his invitation.

Xia Lin knew that if Harper was allowed to continue this topic, his next sentence would probably be to help him pay for his expenses.

Although Xia Lin didn't have that kind of boring self-esteem, he had neither the time nor the mood right now, so he changed the topic to what he cared about most and blocked Harper's mouth.

Xia Lin is not familiar with the group of textile merchants in the capital, but his next plan needs this information, so when making the plan before, he put his idea on Harper's head.

"Why are you asking this? I remember Viscount Gregg's house, right?"

Harper asked suspiciously, but he still answered Xia Lin's question. After all, in his opinion, it's no big deal to tell his friends.

"Then have you heard about Viscount Greg? If you can, please tell me now, please Harper, these news are very important to me!"

Charlene was overjoyed when she heard Harper's answer, and hurriedly asked.

"This... is not impossible, I probably heard my father say something.

It seems that Viscount Greg is not in good health. At present, the business of the Greg Chamber of Commerce is managed by his eldest son, Ellen Greg. Ellen seems to be our classmate.

But they are not from the same world as us, Xia Lin, what do you want to do?If you are short of money, I still have some Silver Marr that I can lend you!You can pay me back when you get to the northern border. "

Harper hesitated for a while, and seeing Xia Lin's serious look, he opened his mouth in surprise and said the information he knew.

"No, I'm not short of money, don't worry! Harper, do you know where Viscount Gregg's Mansion is? I have something to ask Ellen Gregg."

Seeing that Harper was so confiding and considerate of himself, Xia Lin couldn't help but feel a little fond of him.

His way of doing things has always been to repay kindness with kindness, and to repay grievances with hatred.Seeing that Harper was full of childishness, and his eyes seemed to be full of hope for the future, Xia Lin silently made a decision.

If he succeeds in realizing his plan and has spare energy, he must give this innocent friend a hand.

"I don't know where the Viscount's Mansion is. I haven't been in the East District in my life! But I know where the Greg Chamber of Commerce is. You only need to walk around on Horsetail Avenue in the South District to see his house. Pearl Bird Badge."

After speaking, Harper looked at the sky, and put the brass key of the dormitory into Xia Lin's hand:

"Okay, it's getting late, I'm getting ready to go, and I probably won't be going back to the dormitory after that, Xia Lin, if you need anything in the dormitory, take it away! Remember to give the key to the professor for me when you leave .”

"Then I wish you a good time, and thank you!"

Xia Lin held the key in his hand and congratulated him sincerely.

Harper just nodded to him with some concern, and then hurried to the wooden stairs on the left.

Saying goodbye to Harper, Xia Lin didn't rush to search in her friend's room, but closed the heavy wooden door and went back to the room and sat down at the wooden table to continue drawing.

Time is limited, and he must seize every minute, in case Plan A fails and there is no time to implement a backup plan.

Early the next morning, after scrapping a few pieces of parchment, Xia Lin finally produced more than 20 drawings of the parts of the spinning jenny.

Although these drawings are limited by the factors of the drawing tools and do not fully comply with the drawing specifications, the lines can also be called clean and neat, and the dimensions are also extremely detailed. It can be said that there are everything that should be there.

Presumably in this era when the handicraft industry still relies on word of mouth and hands-on teaching, these drawings can definitely arouse some people's interest.

After carefully arranging the drawings according to the labels, and wrapping them up with string and stuffing them into the sleeve pockets of the robe, Xia Lin went to the bathroom at the end of the corridor to create a good image for herself to facilitate subsequent negotiations.

According to the knowledge he learned when he was a salesman, a person's first impression is very important. When it doesn't matter, it often determines whether the salesman can overcome obstacles such as guards and see the target side.

And in his spell list, there is a very useful zero-ring spell, the cleansing spell of the evocation system.

This spell can remove some dust and stains attached to furniture, floors, and the human body. When Xia Lin hadn't recovered the memory of his previous life, in order to save time for washing in the morning and study hard, he deliberately learned this spell.

Although it was not the first time to cast a spell, Xia Lin was still a little excited, probably because of the memory of the previous life, what is the essence of magic?What about spiritual power and magic power?All kinds of questions came to my mind.

If it was in college, maybe Xia Lin would be impatient to invest in various experiments and publish dozens of papers in various journals with possible results.

However, there are no journals in this world for Xia Lin to come to, and Xia Lin currently does not have the conditions to conduct experiments.

He stood in front of the tub and brewed for a while, controlling his mental power to form nodes in the air.

These nodes formed two simple runes, and then the runes absorbed the magic power in the air, forming a wind-like wave.

This wave followed Xia Lin's command from head to toe, as if a brush was gently brushing, removing all kinds of dirt on Xia Lin's body, and finally formed a piece of plaster in the stone basin things.

"It's amazing!"

Xia Lin's eyes widened, and she wondered, if there was such a convenient magic in the previous life, the shampoo and shower gel manufacturers might go bankrupt.

But now is not the time to be curious, Xia Lin combed her brown hair with a wooden comb, pinned a brand new ring of mage and jazz badges on her chest, and impatiently set off to find the noble person she might be destined for Sell ​​your drawings.

The imperial capital of the Sassen Empire, Helgana, is divided into five regions according to its orientation, east, west, north, south, and middle. The eastern region is located at the junction of rivers, with beautiful scenery and pleasant climate. It is also the location of the royal palace and noble residences.

Both the Central District and the West District are civilian areas, and the North and South Districts are located beside two tributaries. The wharf brought prosperous commerce and also served as the two main arteries of the heart of the empire where 60 people lived.

On the broad Seine River, countless ships transport all kinds of goods every day to meet the huge needs of the city.

Just from the scale of nearly [-] dockworkers union that Xia Lin's father joined, it can be seen how huge the supplies are in these two dock areas.

Xia Lin walked southward for more than half an hour from the junction of the Eastern District and the Central District, where the Imperial Academy of Magic is located, looking around and collecting information about the world.

The types of goods sold on the street, the fabrics, cutting and dyeing of pedestrians' clothes, the shape of buildings and roads, and the details that teenagers could not notice in the past are the best sources of information in Xia Lin's view.

From these things, he can deduce the technical level of the city, and then decide which things he should take out to obtain the greatest benefits.

If he has enough time, he will chat with those peddlers and shopkeepers to get some information about the price and origin of the product, but at present his only goal is to sell the spinning jenny he drew.
