Chapter 65 The Mid-Market
Colin and Hank left Baron Joyce's mansion soon, leaving only two subordinates to record the baron's description and appeal of the case.

Because he was quite shocked by what happened just now, Baron Joyce completed the "record" very cooperatively.

The female sheriff who Colin thought was "sexy in standard soft armor" professionally took out a charcoal pencil and asked the baron to sign. By the way, she asked Summer, who was beside her:

"Your Excellency Summer, do you have anything to explain or add?"

Summer snorted coldly: "If I have to say it, I suggest you check your own magic consultant. Shouldn't the magician who can use the magic pattern so proficiently be suspected?"

The female sheriff under Hank's name was Maya, she was stunned when she heard this, and then immediately smiled:

"Are you sure you want me to truthfully record your request?"

"Why not?" Summer said indifferently, "It's up to you whether to check anyway."

"I'm just responsible for recording your words."

Maya smiled: "But to be honest, with our position, we don't have the authority to investigate the consultant for the time being. I suggest that you express your doubts through the Magic Association. After all, that gentleman is also hired by us from the association." .”

"You think I don't dare?" Summer, who hadn't planned to quarrel too much with the Public Security Department, was put on the head by the female security officer in front of him. If he didn't say something, he wouldn't be able to get off the stage.

"Of course not." Maya didn't continue to entangle with him, turned her head to say goodbye to the baron, then called her colleagues and prepared to leave.

When she reached the stairs leading to the ground, she stopped, turned her head and said with a smile:

"By the way, Mr. Summer, our consultant's name is Colin Wayne, please remember clearly, don't find the wrong person."

After speaking, he walked up the stairs and left.

"Colin Wayne?"

The two people left behind silently recited the name, and then opened their eyes wide at the same time.

Summer felt dizzy and dizzy, and his legs felt weak.

……

After bidding farewell to Hank, Colin sent Bob to drive the carriage back to the Wizard Tower.

I entered the old city from the small road.

When he saw that the shop selling ice water was empty, he slapped his head and laughed to himself that his life was muddled—annie was still in college at this time.

He paced out of the old town again, and slowly came to the Canal District.

This time is a bit embarrassing, there is nothing to be done at the Gold Chamber of Commerce, and it is too early to return to the Mage Tower, thinking about whether I have had a rest, it is not bad to take a walk in this spare time.

The canal area is the busiest place in Thunder City. More than [-]% of the goods trade is gathered here, but as long as it is not on both sides of the canal, it will not be particularly noisy. On the contrary, the facades of various shops look lively and prosperous.

The shops here are not as high-end as the Garden District, nor are they as simple as the slums.

Thanks to the King's New Deal and the advantages of the capital, Thunder City has a large number of poor people, but relatively speaking, there are not a few middle-class civilians, which can support a large number of mid-end shops in the Canal District.

Colin walked a few steps, but didn't see anything particularly satisfying. Finally, he bought a piece of roasted sweet potato and ate it while walking.

Halfway through, he stopped suddenly.

In a shop with a wider facade than the neighboring ones, the business is obviously better than others.

Several boys and girls were chatting together and discussing something, and there was a burst of exclamation and laughter from time to time.

"I must marry a wife as beautiful as Miss Dinah in the future."

"Just you? I think you'd better make a living with your father's maid, Kali Murdo."

"Calimurdo has only one eye and is 35 years old... I'll fight you."

"Ha ha……"

"..."

Curiously, Ke Lin walked into the store and found a row of small and delicate photos on the showcase.

With a smile on his face, he immediately understood that this store belonged to the Youjin Chamber of Commerce, and these palm-sized photos were the cooperation between the camera and Dinah.

Strictly speaking, this belongs to the work of the second generation photo camera.

Under the same resolution, the smaller the size, the higher the technical requirements. In addition to being able to take smaller photos, the second-generation video camera also increased the shipment volume from the original one to 20.

But even so, in the case of huge market demand, Dinah still needs to take pictures non-stop for more than 8 hours a day.

This young dancer who was originally famous only in the upper class became popular among the common people in Thunder City in an instant.

After the photo size has shrunk significantly, the chamber of commerce has reason to lower the price.

An oil painting-sized portrait photo costs 10 gold lang, while a palm-sized photo only costs 5 silver shields.Of course, the chamber of commerce does not support small selfies for the time being, so the photos of this size on the market are all printed with Dinah alone. The current release is a set of dancing photos in long skirts, a total of twelve.

This price is still not cheap, and Ke Lin even felt that there would be no market for this. After all, it is not his own photo. Who would spend such a waste of money to buy someone else's photo—even if it is a beautiful woman.

But Colin still forgot one thing.

In this world where there is no TV, no movies, and it is difficult for middle-class civilians to see even inferior live performances, ordinary people can get a high-definition photo of a beautiful woman, which is already a considerable visual enjoyment.

The entertainment that most commoners look forward to most is to watch the song and dance performances organized by the city hall from a distance during the festivals. Few people can see the appearance of the actors on the stage.

After the layout of the high-end market, the Chamber of Commerce gradually spread the business of photo cameras to the mid-end market. Although the unit price profit is much lower, the sales volume far exceeds the former.

Many people have saved money for a few months just to buy a photo of Dinah, and those who are a little richer are already considering collecting twelve photos.

The noisy boys and girls in the shop reminded Ke Lin of those young people who were chasing stars in his previous life. The difference is that the cost of chasing stars in this world is too high. The parents of these teenagers are at least senior craftsmen or small businessmen.

From Ke Lin's point of view, the commercial planning of the photo camera has already come to an end at this stage.

Although the population of the old town accounts for half of the entire Thunder City, it is almost impossible to do business among these people.

Just think of Annie, she can't spend 500 bowls of ice water on a picture of a stranger.

And Annie is already considered a group of people among the poor who are quick-witted and live a good life. Many poor people may sell all their belongings and can't make up 5 silver shields; Pants, whoever goes out wears them.

This is still Thunder City, and in the entire land of the Tulun Kingdom, which occupies nearly half of the entire southern continent, such poor people abound.
