What is it like to be a teacher as a magister?

Chapter 24 The Magic Loom

After breakfast, Phinea and Tessa walked in arm in arm, followed by Colin, looking around, like a child following an adult out to play.

The further he walked in, the more Colin felt like a factory.

It's just that this factory seems to do everything, greenhouse planting, poultry breeding, metal processing, woodworking, and some large-scale equipment that doesn't know its function.

Although the scale is large, it is almost unplanned.

He didn't know what other "factories" looked like, so he didn't dare to express his opinions casually.

Feniya walked along the way and introduced the business projects of the chamber of commerce to the two of them.

"Your Majesty wants to replace a batch of furniture in the palace. I'm afraid our current 45 carpenters are not enough. We plan to recruit some more."

"These broad-feathered golden pheasants are a variety that has just been shipped from the Western Continent. Not only are the meat delicious, but their feathers are also loved by noble ladies and wives. We plan to expand the scope of breeding in the future."

"Oh, gardener, by the way, we are in urgent need of a gardener. If Earl Rudolph's garden cannot be repaired before he returns from vacation, the chamber of commerce may lose a generous customer."

"In addition, a new batch of Antashan tobacco leaves is already on the way, and I will personally send it to Master Luoman when the time comes."

"..."

For Ke Lin, what he saw in the Gold Chamber of Commerce was refreshing. The old, rigid, and magical world in his consciousness seemed to be injected into a modern landscape, although it was still very primitive.

"There is another piece of good news."

Feniya said to Tessa with a look of asking for credit: "The two veil flowers brought back from the Principality of Nazland have been successfully transplanted, and I believe they can be planted on a large scale next year."

"Really? That's great." Tessa showed surprise, and said with a little eagerness: "Can I go and have a look?"

"of course."

Several people quickened their pace and walked inward.

When I turned around the corridor and passed a courtyard, I found a group of people discussing something around a strange looking machine, including two middle-aged men in black magic robes.

"What are they doing?" Tessa stopped and asked curiously even though she was anxious to see the flowers.

Phinea explained: "Thanks to Master Roman, the Chamber of Commerce received an order for golden weave cloth from the royal family this year. For this purpose, it purchased a magic loom from the Duchy of Gilman, but it is said that because it uses the latest technology, often Damaged, we have contacted the seller, but the other party charged a sky-high repair fee, which is beyond our budget.”

Tessa frowned and said, "Aren't they afraid of losing customers if they do business like this?"

Phineya said helplessly: "There is no way, the Principality of Gilman is already far ahead in the field of engineering equipment, and the loom has absolute core technology. Our magicians in Tulum value personal strength too much, and rarely Willing to use magic in business, people are sure about this, so they dare to ask for prices."

"Then these people are...?" Tessa looked at the group of people around the loom.

"We invited many magicians to see it before, but there was nothing we could do. We hired two middle-level magicians who are good at this field from the association, and the others are technicians from the chamber of commerce."

"Can it be resolved?"

"I haven't found the key yet. If it doesn't work, I can only continue to use the existing old-fashioned looms, but the efficiency and quality will decline, which may affect next year's orders."

Colin, who was listening, also had mixed feelings.

Such things as technical barriers are difficult everywhere.

He knew very well that it was not that Phineya did not want to seek help from the Mage Tower, but first, it would be a big deal to bother Roman Sagan with such a trivial matter. Or because of his strong personal strength and prestige, the technology in a certain professional field may not be as strong as a low-level magician who has been immersed in it for many years.

This is like asking a Nobel Prize-winning physicist to repair a refrigerator with a screwdriver. It is not impossible, but it will definitely take time to study, and the efficiency is far less than that of a skilled repairman.

Tessa nodded slightly, but didn't have any good ideas at the moment.

The few people continued to walk, and finally came to a nursery. In a specially sealed room, two flowers somewhat similar to tulips were planted in huge and exquisite flower pots.

The most special thing is that the temperature inside the room is significantly lower than outside, and in the hot summer, it seems that the air conditioner is on.

Phineya explained: "The veil flower likes the cold climate like the Principality of Nazland, so we specially let the magician regularly cool down the room, and when the sunshine and temperature problems are solved next year, we can build a flower garden and carry out large-scale cultivation. planting on a large scale."

"This way, the cost must not be small." Tessa leaned down slightly, carefully observing the petals of the Veil Flower.

"The cost is high, but the benefits are also high. Ms. Tessa knows how effective the cosmetic lipstick made from veil petals is."

"Indeed." Tessa nodded with a smile.

After hearing this, Colin asked, "Are these flowers used to make cosmetics?"

"Yes."

Phineya smiled and said: "Mr. Wayne doesn't know that the ladies of Thunder City are never lenient in spending on clothing, especially if you add the words 'popular in the Western Continent', it will be even more attractive. "

Because they were less affected by the war, the countries in the Western Continent have always been able to lead the trend in academics, art, fashion, etc., from ceremonial dress to meals and entertainment, and have always been sought after by the upper class of the Tulum Kingdom. Proud of the continental Brighton area dialect.

Colin showed a dazed expression.

Tessa kept her eyes on the two flowers and said:

"The petals of the veil flower are soaked in a special agent, air-dried, and ground, and then mixed with the honey of the sword-winged bee and amber powder, you can make a top-grade lipstick with a crystal clear color and a pleasant fragrance."

"Does senior sister understand this too?" Ke Lin was curious.

Tessa showed a little pride on her face, and said with a smile: "The potion for soaking the petals was originally an undisclosed secret of the Principality of Nazland. I asked the teacher for help to decipher it together."

"Amazing."

Ke Lin couldn't imagine the teacher being forced to study cosmetics, so he asked:

"But senior sister is so naturally beautiful, does she need makeup?"

"Young brother speaks really nicely." Tessa smiled with her eyes narrowed.

After that, the two women quickly developed a topic of beauty, gradually entering the field that Colin knew nothing about.

He gradually felt bored, and felt that the air-conditioning in the greenhouse was threatening, so he retreated alone.

After waiting for a while, seeing that the senior sister and Ms. Finiya still had no intention of ending, they wandered around.

Not long after, he actually came to the magic loom.

The group of people were still surrounding the machine, discussing and arguing about something intensely.
