Negotiation with the vampires is a systematic project, not an item-by-item transaction.
Now that the two sides have just reached an intention of joint operations, the details have not yet been worked out. If Gretel wants to get money, how can he get it?
He thought for a moment, took off his badge, and handed it to Grete:
"Short of money? Do you want me to lend you a little first? One thousand or two thousand, you name a number, I can still get it!"
Grete shook his head quickly.
If he really wants to borrow it, he can borrow it from all the great mages he knows, and it’s probably not difficult to contribute 10,000 or 20,000 points. However, you can’t rely on borrowing for research funds!
Research on this matter is a bottomless pit. Ten thousand contribution points can only amount to 1,000 chips and 1,000 pieces of data. Who is sure that this subject can be calculated with 1,000 pieces of data?
"Otherwise, please help me estimate the price." Gretel thought for a while and proposed another plan:
"Estimate a rough price. I'll use this magic to get a mortgage loan from the council. I remember, the White Tower has related loan business?"
This is not impossible. The problem is that with mortgage loans, the transaction price can only be underestimated, not overestimated. Otherwise, it will not only damage the wallet, but also the reputation of the appraiser.
Elder Grom discussed with his colleagues and only gave an estimate of 2,000 contribution points. Gretel collected the money with his left hand and immediately spent it with his right hand, turning it into 200 data crystal cards.
However, the blood transfusion method was used to exchange for 200 tickets, and I spent my own savings to buy 200 tickets. Four to five hundred pieces of information were entered into SS's database, and I couldn't even afford a splash...
"Otherwise, how about just spending the money from the mage tower?"
Linn advised him. Grete looked at the account of the mage tower and saw less than four digits of silver deposits, and silently shook his head.
"Shall I borrow some from the teacher?"
Aurora asked tentatively. Gretel shook his head faster: As long as he can borrow it, the Lord of Thunder will lend it to him. If the teacher refuses to borrow it, asking other people to ask for it, won't he cause others to scold him?
"Then..." Cerela rolled up her sleeves and looked around:
"I remember the trading price of the White Tower. The dragon's blood is 1,000 contribution points per drop? Hey, do you have a bottle here to hold it?"
"Don't be ridiculous!"
Gretel was startled and drank quickly. It was one thing to have an occasional exchange between friends, but it was another thing to ask Miss Silver Dragon to sell her blood. Even if he was killed, he would not do such a thing that harmed others and was not beneficial to oneself!
Cerira pouted her lips and shrank back. Grete rubbed his brows in annoyance:
What else is there to sell? If there is nothing to sell, you have to write a project report and apply for project funding from the council.
The rabies question hasn't been completed yet. I'm opening a new one. I don't know if I can pass it...
As he was thinking about it, the clouds outside the window moved, and a ray of sunshine hit the corner of his eyes. Gretel suddenly thought:
By the way, sunscreen!
Last time I told Viscount Sebesh that I wanted to help him improve his sun protection magic!
Where did it get stuck last time? Sunscreen materials? Chemical sunscreen doesn’t work, so what about physical sunscreen? In the previous life, what were the raw materials of sunscreen for the physical sunscreen route?
Gretel closed his eyes and concentrated, rummaging through his memory, and remembered it in a moment. There are two main ingredients for physical sunscreen, one is zinc oxide powder, and the other is titanium dioxide powder.
It seems like it's not hard to find?
Grete placed an order casually, and before evening, Baita delivered the goods. Grete took a spoonful from the bottle on the left and a spoonful from the bottle on the right, mixed them evenly, and called Master Lin En:
"Brother Lin En, help me try this magic?"
Master Lin En summoned the lowest skeleton soldier. When the thing saw the sun, black smoke emitted from its body, staggered and fell down. Gretel quickly shook the powder in his hand and released the magic.
The small amount of mixed powder rose up from the air and turned into a cloud, covering the skeleton soldier. The cloud was so thin that it was almost invisible to the naked eye. However, as soon as it was covered, the black smoke on the skeleton soldier stopped immediately.
"This thing is not bad!" Linn was surprised. The two stood side by side and watched for ten minutes. The skeleton soldier showed no signs of weakness. He looked at Gretel, who spread his hands:
"I don't know either. They said it was invented by a grand duke of the Vampire clan. They didn't tell me the strength or duration. I only know that it was originally made of silver powder."
"The Vampires use silver powder..." Linn was amused. He asked for the casting materials from Gretel, casually threw in an identification spell, and immediately frowned:
"Are you going to sell it to the vampires?"
"Um."
"That won't work." Linn replied decisively. Seeing Grete's confusion, he pointed to the remaining powder:
"The identification technique comes out. You have to make it a little more complicated, otherwise you won't be able to sell it at a high price."
Grete deeply believed that. Those who are not of my race must have different thoughts. Even if everyone joins forces to fight against the Glory Holy See, who knows whether they will fight to the death in the future?
The things to be sold to the Vampires had better be so complicated that the Vampires can't make them on their own. Only in this way can humans sell them at high prices if they want, and cut off the supply if they want!
He cheered up and mixed the two powders with lime powder, baking soda, chalk, gypsum, and seven or eight similar powders. He adjusted the proportions and the formula, but no matter how much he mixed it, under the identification skills, nothing could be evaded.
Grete gritted his teeth and simply found another way. Didn't you use silver powder as the casting material? Silver powder is OK, but silver ions are not? Solids are OK, but liquids are OK?
"Mr. Norwood! Mr. Norwood, do me a favor!"
Master Norwood responded.
He took two apprentices with him, and during this period of time he was tinkering with all kinds of rubber, which was quite fruitful. He was only one step away from Gretel's requirements.
At this moment, the boss called, and he quickly followed the instructions, opening various bottles and cans, cutting, pounding, boiling and boiling.
Not long after, a bottle of silver nitrate solution was completed first. By now, the sun had set, and Gretel had his own way. He asked Linn to summon the skeleton soldiers, and he pressed it on the wall, and there was a crisp sound.
The mercury arc rectifier emits a faint blue light. In Grete's hand, a stream of water rises from the brown vial and turns into clouds, blocking the ultraviolet rays emitted by the rectifier.
Lin En stood side by side with him, felt the state of the skeleton soldiers, nodded, and shook his head:
"It works, but it can still be seen with the identification technique. Is there any other way?"
"Of course!"
Grete raised a smile at him. Silver nitrate is okay, which means that silver halide is okay; silver halide is okay, so you might as well play something more complicated!
"Mr. Norwood, let's come on! Bring out concentrated hydrochloric acid, concentrated sulfuric acid, concentrated nitric acid, silver powder, iodine, and all kinds of things!"
Make something that doesn't exist in the world, and let me see how you identify it!
