Mage? Spell Engineer!

It wasn't until Rorschach left Würzburg that Bart met him once after getting married, reminding the culprit with dark circles under his eyes not to forget how the Wizard's Tower collapsed.

Rorschach also saw the plump-looking Amelia and wondered why she didn't have dark circles under her eyes. Regarding his friend's resentment, he could only promise to do him one last favor: "I was forced to demolish the tower because I blocked the knife for you! Okay, okay, before I return to the Holy Kingdom, I will come back again to help you design the mage tower. defensive array."

"It's a deal." Of course, Bart didn't ask Rorschach to pay, but just waited for this sentence. He had already seen Rorschach's ability to draw scrolls, and the [Blue Light Barrier] also left a deep impression on him.

Bart held Rorschach's hand in vain and said goodbye to him, and arranged for the trading company's carriage to take the boy to Landsht.

If he went directly to the Tower of Secrets, Rorschach could take a ride on the wizards and apprentices in the tower, but he didn't want to go back empty-handed this time, so naturally he couldn't go empty-handed, so he went to the Lanshit Factory to pick up the goods first.

What is there that a mage from the Tower of Secrets cannot refuse? This is what Rorschach thought about along the way.

At least we can prepare the chips we can provide first, such as more passivation transmutation dust. I don't know if the mages have thoroughly studied these small blue crystals.

When rushing to work for the wedding celebration, the "Fangda" factory imported and installed two steam engines, which not only greatly improved the filling efficiency, but were also used to generate electricity, convert them into ether, and then input them into the transmutation dust collector.

This secret crew is undertaken by apprentices from the R\u0026D department. Rorschach didn't mind stealing any secrets. The topological array was not something ordinary apprentices could understand, and the magic circuits were all recorded inside the machine. As long as the machine kept running, the apprentices couldn't peek inside.

The only headache for Rorschach was that because the Tower of Secrets despised alchemy, it was actually difficult to arrange for the people recruited to develop beverages.

"I can't write my own teaching materials to teach them 'three transmissions and one counterattack', right?" The chemical engineering dog in the previous life shivered just thinking about it, and his hair stood up. There was also a headache for him. He obviously just wanted to get the latest output of the collector, but he was entangled the first time he entered the factory.

"Master Rorschach, you have finally returned to the factory!" Pierre heard the guard's report and ran down from the office to greet him. Some of the masters were recruited by Rorschach himself. Hearing the voice, he also looked at these people. One of the "bosses" who is too young.

"Mr. Pierre, don't call me 'my lord'. Let's do this. In the factory, we address each other by the same title."

Rorschach always couldn't help laughing when he heard titles like "Master" and "Sir" being used on him, especially for a middle-aged uncle like Pierre, who used to use "Mage" and "Mr.". I don't know when. At first, I just called him "Sir".

"Okay, Lord Rorschach." Pierre Neussingen responded first, and then was silent for a while: "Well, what position do you want to take?"

Strictly speaking, if he wanted to hold a position where he could get paid without having to work, he should be an independent director of "Hercules", but as "Fonda" was part of the Mage Tower, Rorschach decided to have in-depth control from the beginning. "Let's discuss it with Mr. Hasay."

After Mr. Hasse unexpectedly brought big business from the Holy Kingdom, he was promoted by Bart's father to the senior partner of the Baldorum Chamber of Commerce, specifically responsible for the beverage sales network operated in joint venture with "Hercules". If Pierre When you return to the Holy Kingdom, he will be the temporary helmsman of "Fonda".

These days, there are not so many divisions as CEO, CIO, CFO, COC, and CR. The model is still dominated by family businesses plus partners. "Hercules" took the lead in becoming a multinational group, but the personnel structure is a bit chaotic.

Rorschach doesn't understand these things well and doesn't want to care about them. He believes that at least for now, Mr. Hasay is a trustworthy partner. He has just become the other party's savior, and his interests are consistent.

Their own force is also a guarantee. It is impossible for Pierre and Hasay not to understand that the benefits of maintaining good cooperation with Rorschach are far greater than the benefits of "kicking Rorschach away and at least hiring an archmage as a bodyguard to ensure safety."

So it was decided that Rorschach would be assigned the next position, and this was also the meeting where Rorschach decided on the future direction of the company. Rorschach was hired as a consultant for the "Fonda" company, and in the future, in addition to dividends, he would also receive an additional long-term income.

Fully respecting Rorschach's desire to get money with just his words.

When you become a consultant, you have to do the work of a consultant. Rorschach announced the company's next goals: "First, in the short term, we will develop other lower-cost flavors based on purple soda, which do not necessarily have a refreshing effect. It’s for the sake of good drink.”

Hasay, who is familiar with the products of his hometown, analyzed: "Bain's grape production has basically been absorbed by the brewing guild. Apples and thick-skinned citrus are now mainly eaten fresh, and they can be purchased and made into drinks."

Pierre, a veteran liquor and pharmacy merchant, immediately answered: "Can we buy apples to make Cedar wine?" Valois and its southern regions use pears or apples to brew sparkling fruit wine, which is called "Cider" in Arabic. Cedar".

"No, no alcohol, we don't need to stimulate the brewing guild anymore." Rorschach shook his head: "You can squeeze the juice to get new soda. It's best to add coloring so that others can immediately think of the fruit flavor, and at the same time, we can use the power of our glass bottles Advantage."

This is just a short-term goal. What Rorschach said next is the key point: "And the project that needs to be focused on development will be food."

"Food?" The two businessmen did not realize Rorschach's intention. The bulk commodities handled by the logistics club would only have the concept of "grain".

Processed food is not yet deeply rooted in people's hearts. There are only bakeries all over Valouana. Even candies that are easy to transport and store and made into products must be bought in teahouses and pastry shops. Valouana, which consumes the most sugar, has no specialized bakeries. Candy factory.

"We need to develop standardized food that can be stored and transported for a long time." Canned food and instant food are both technologies that are easy to point out. Perhaps the "Pasteur experiment" in the previous life has been discovered by a natural mage in this world, but Luo Xia observed that the mages’ understanding of microorganisms was not applied to production.

Rorschach took the two of them to the R\u0026D department and talked about the principles of the "Pasteur experiment" with the apprentices. However, even if they "know why", it still requires continuous design and accumulation to transform it into a mature process and produce products stably. of.

"We have enough glass production capacity. After the soda production line is stabilized, we can develop canned food." Just put the boiled food into the glass jar, then seal it with cork and wax, and the original can is ready. .

The craft of tin cans can be discussed later. Currently, only the alchemy technology of Istani and the Northern Dwarves is far ahead. The cost of metal cans in Bain is still too high.

"Even if it is really developed, who will buy it?" The tricky-mouthed Valois businessman Pierre has already foreseen that this thing will not taste too delicious. People who can accept the taste cannot afford it, and those who can afford it will only go there. When eating in restaurants, even if there is a market, it is expected that customers are just looking for something new.

At this time, the gap in martial ethics between the Holy Kingdom and the Empire became apparent. In addition, Hasay was a logistics businessman. He just imagined in his mind and immediately thought of Rorschach's real target customer: "the army!"

"Yes, in order to maintain combat effectiveness, the army must eat a certain amount of meat, eggs, milk and even fruits and vegetables." Rorschach was very satisfied that Mr. Hasay could keep up with him.

Smart people in this world have vaguely understood the relationship between sepsis and other symptoms and diet. Countries also know that in addition to weapons and training, food and clothing are also necessary to maintain combat effectiveness.

Rorschach continued to explain: "This type of supply is easy to spoil during transportation, so as long as our products have a long shelf life, the military is happy to accept the slightly higher cost."

But Mr Hasse looked worried.
