In the end, Stanley did not state his ultimate goal, only that after he helped Su Mu and others raise enough funds, he also needed to borrow a large sum of money for temporary use.
Regarding this, since Stanley's premise is to fulfill Su Mu's needs, Su Mu naturally stopped asking.
Therefore, in the following period of time, everything seems to be back on track.
Although the alchemy workshop that has been established, or the alchemy laboratory to be established soon, will undoubtedly be "touted" again by major journals.
But in fact, after the management rights were completely handed over to Stanley, everyone returned to their own duties.
Lu Xi once again returned to the college to start the course, and it has become one of the most popular courses currently.
Su Tong continued to run her afternoon tea party, and indeed turned the tea party into a fashion of the upper class of the Federation, even vaguely, even ordinary residents knew the influence of the tea party.
As for Su Mu himself, although in his current status, going to the academy to enjoy regular magic teaching is almost an extravagant fantasy.
However, Su Mu didn't really care about this.
For one thing, Su Mu also has a tutor like Lu Xi, who can fully enjoy one-to-one teaching.
Secondly, compared to the education of Su Mu by others, what Su Mu needs today is actually... to sort out the books in his mind as soon as possible, and then plan the future growth path of the office.
So for a while, except for Teyao, who was the messenger of the dark bard, who had personally visited the alchemy workshop that had been built in the past, none of the others had paid any more attention.
It seems that both the trust in Stanley and the laissez-faire to Teyao are so natural.
So in such a situation, even Su Mu and the others are completely blackened at what their own workshop actually produces... They don't know anything!
…
The passage of time always seems to be faster than people think.
When the tea party in the princess mansion had completely become a social norm, and the academy tutor Lu Xi became more and more famous, even after Su Mu went back and forth to the Broken World twice again.
The day of reaping the fruits finally came as expected.
It was still the top office of the Mystery Society, it was still all the members of Su Mu's family, and it was still such a peaceful afternoon.
But facing the call from Stanley, everyone knew what was about to happen.
"So, what do we need to do now?"
The first one to speak was naturally Su Mu, who had become the core of the crowd.
And as soon as Su Mu spoke, he asked directly and bluntly what kind of cooperation Stanley would need from everyone.
Undoubtedly, with Stanley's shrewdness, he would never summon all "bosses" meaninglessly.
And since he will gather everyone, there is bound to be a need for renewal.
Stanley is also unambiguous about Su Mu’s hitting the nail on the head:
"The first batch of alchemy technology you provided to me has been transformed in the workshop and produced a large number of finished products, but what we need to do now is actually to publicize these finished products."
"So, I now need to ask the bosses to bring different levels of alchemy products to the circle you can influence, and to expand the influence of the affiliated workshops of the Arcanum."
Su Mu was not surprised at Stanley's request.
However, regarding the "transformation" Stanley specifically mentioned, both Su Mu and Lu Xi were slightly surprised that Stanley was able to strengthen mature alchemy techniques.
After all, Su and Mu, both of whom are alchemists, are actually very clear:
"Any mature alchemy can hardly change its core magic logic, and there are few precedents that can continue to strengthen it."
So when Stanley said this, he and Su and Mu, who are alchemists, finally began to look forward to the finished products produced in the workshop.
…
But the outcome of the facts is obviously quite different from what Su Mu and others expected.
When Stanley was so mysterious, he finally lifted the veil of the samples that had been placed in the office a long time ago.
Not to mention alchemists like Su Mu and Lu Xi, they can see the simplicity of these alchemy structures at a glance; even the imperial princess Su Tong, as an ordinary person, seems to understand Stanley's plan.
At this time, the three samples placed in front of Su Mu and others are the simplest and traditional crystal lamp, a small-scale Qi-powered fountain that is a little bit complicated, and the most difficult alchemy instrument .
In addition to their respective characteristics, the three undoubtedly also have extremely obvious common characteristics.
I saw whether it was the luxurious gold-plated appearance of the Chineng crystal lamp, the well-designed appearance of the small Chin-powered fountain, or even the beautiful cherry wood keyboard of the golden horn.
Everything is completely stacked towards gorgeousness, rather than pursuing performance.
Even when Su Mu was very serious and looked at the magic language engraved on these alchemy tools, he really confirmed his guess:
Stanley's so-called transformation is not to strengthen the core of the alchemy, but to accommodate the splendor of the appearance, and weaken the basic function of the alchemy in the opposite direction.
"Are you going to sell these inferior products at a higher price than similar products?"
The first one to question was naturally Aviana, who could not understand Stanley's behavior for a long time.
As a qualified mage, even if Aviana was born from a wealthy federation, she obviously still values practicality the most when it comes to the scrutiny of alchemy.
But for her question, Su Mu had already guessed the ending.
Because there is no doubt that, like Aviana or Lu Xi, who can see through the advantages and disadvantages of alchemy at a glance, they are not the majority of the federation's relatives.
Among the upper-class children of the Federation, the most are ordinary people with not so outstanding vision.
"Boss, don't get excited, you can't understand this structure, but it's just because you are not the target customer at all. At this moment, you are investigating based on your own needs, you are in a misunderstanding.
Stanley was not ashamed of Aviana's doubts.
Instead, he explained calmly:
"For you, alchemy is a practical product, so you will inevitably pursue the ultimate in performance. But in fact, for more family children, this is just a symbol of identity. They are not only concerned about performance. There is not much demand, or even its real functions."
"So how to use the simplest technical difficulty to create something that can best show their superiority? This is a question that a qualified businessman should consider."
When Stanley said this, the cunning in his eyes was already unobstructed.
"And most importantly, even if they don't think these things are really luxurious. But as long as you are now, you all intentionally or unintentionally become supporters of these products. Then even if it is just to imitate your behavior, or to try They get a piece of self-deception comparable to yours, and they will still rush to buy it."
"So the prices of these three items are also... a gold-plated crystal lamp, 800 gold coins for one; a small power fountain with two thousand coins; as for the customized version of the alchemy newspaper, one for 10,000 gold coins!" ()
