Magic Industrial Age

The currency of the Habsburg Empire is based on the 'Thaler,' minted in gold, silver, and copper. The conversion rate between each metal is decimal.

That is, one gold Thaler is worth one hundred silver Thalers, or ten thousand copper Thalers.

Loy had Shen Lan measure it, and although the value varied depending on the 'measuring object,' it was basically concluded that one gold Thaler had the purchasing power of about 10,000 yuan from his previous life on Blue Star.

Two thousand one hundred gold Thalers is equivalent to a huge sum of 20 million yuan, definitely a great fortune.

Loy had already seen from the account books that this was because Oakland City was the Raymond family's fragrance distribution point in the Habsburg Empire, which accumulated so much wealth.

And this money, injected into the Champs Elysees Magic Textile Factory, will definitely solve its funding chain shortage.

However, there are many types of cooperation, such as acquisition, equity participation, how much to occupy, how to divide authority...

There are really too many details to discuss.

So, before it was just an intention, and now it involves substantive content, Loy asked Hoover to come forward first to explore the other party's bottom line.

As for Loy, he still maintained his original routine, going to and from school every day, a three-point line.

He focused on cultivation, supplemented by reading, and occasionally attended a 'basic meditation' class.

Even the bounty missions on Ang's side were stopped, temporarily unnecessary.

The only difference was the addition of Oliveira as a teacher. In addition to cultivation, someone was finally helping him spar.

As a third-tier Gale Swordsman, Oliveira's strength is beyond doubt, but even he was stunned by Loy's progress.

He knew exactly what Loy's condition was when he left Felo Town in June.

Compared to the current Loy who can exchange a few moves with him and dare to deliver a rapier, it's like two different people.

If it weren't for the same person, he would have thought he was hallucinating.

However, Loy was enjoying it. With him around, there were no more confusions about Swift Sword techniques.

Moreover, as someone who came out of the slums and gradually grew into a guard captain, he had more than just Swift Sword techniques.

It's just that Loy can only learn this now.

It is worth mentioning that with money and power in hand, Loy did not hesitate to withdraw twenty gold Thalers as pocket money.

He first spent five, carefully selecting and purchasing a fine-quality magic weapon.

Named: Silver Angel Rapier.

Legend has it that there is a Silver Angel under the seat of the God of Light, holding a divine-level rapier, cutting down all evil.

Of course, in the mortal world, it is a replica of the artifact.

But even so, those who dare to name it 'Silver Angel Rapier' are at least fine-quality weapons.

The one in Loy's hand is said to be the work of Master Lavinia. The main body is star iron, mixed with a lot of fine gold, which not only has excellent fighting spirit transmission effect, but also solidifies the three magics of 'sharpness,' 'magic breaking,' and 'firmness.'

Among them, 'sharpness' and 'magic breaking' are not mentioned, many magic weapons have them, the most important thing is this 'firmness' attribute.

There's no way, rapiers are too easy to break, especially when fighting against those exaggerated great swords and heavy swords.

In addition to this, Loy also picked a cane sword of decent quality in the cane shop, which cost him fifty silver Thalers.

With two weapons in hand, Loy's sense of security soared. If a war professional doesn't have a handy weapon, their combat power will be reduced by at least 30%.

In addition to this, Loy spent a full ten gold Thalers to order red and blue magic potions from the Guling Magic Tower.

As a large-volume consumable, red and blue magic potions are not always available. Oakland City does not have a Kentucky Magic Potion Company branch, so it can only rely on the magic pharmacists in the Guling Magic Tower to refine them one by one.

So, this time Loy took five copies first, and the rest will have to wait.

In fact, Loy's progress speed does not require so much, but with a large number of magic potions, the drug resistance of these red and blue magic potions is also constantly increasing.

So, Loy had to buy more.

With this batch of magic potions, Loy's cultivation has hardly been interrupted, and he is still progressing at an extremely high speed.

Even when approaching the limit, it becomes more and more difficult to fill the seeds of life, just like a bucket filled with water, adding even a trace more will take more effort and time.

But Loy can still feel his progress, visible to the naked eye.

The progress on Hoover's side is not going smoothly. Although that Maruna Marquez is eager, he is only willing to accept the equity participation method, and is only willing to give up 20% of the shares.

This is what Loy cannot accept. 20% of the shares means neither decision-making power nor management power.

Purely giving him money to solve the funding shortage of the Champs Elysees Magic Textile Factory?

In business, you seek profit and wealth, but you don't do things to help in the snow!

The funding shortage of Champs Elysees is already a certainty. The reason why it can support it until now is purely the brand effect,

And, the people below believe that the factory can overcome the difficulties.

But simply relying on cost-cutting to solve the problem is simply a dream.

Furthermore, the Marquis behind Champs Elysees is not doing well. If it weren't for the Raymond family's influence, how could he be so active?

In summary, if you're not in a hurry, I'm not in a hurry, let's wait and see who can't help it first!

Commercial negotiations are like this, you come and go, each relying on their own means!

In addition to this, Loy also made several arrangements.

For example, let Hoover start contacting other magic factories, mainly in the textile industry, but not limited to metallurgy, mining, transportation, etc.

You can take a look and chat!

Furthermore, the 'Oakland Multinational Convention' has been reached. Whether it's good or bad, it's extremely useful to Loy.

The Norman Duchy line, it's better to do it yourself than let others do it.

There is also the large order signed by the Champs Elysees Magic Textile Factory, even certified in the Woking Temple.

Loy also asked Hoover to use the Raymond family's channels to try to trace the source.

In this way, the negotiations come slowly, while cultivation is a race against time.

Time flies, and another half month has passed.

In an instant, it is already mid-November of the New God Era 310, and he has finally pushed the breathing method to the limit of LV3 (99/100).

But here, he is stuck!

……

19 Lombard Street, first floor.

The walls have been removed, and the two bedrooms have been opened up. The space of more than 100 square meters is naturally very empty.

Besides a few weapon racks and some body refining equipment, there is nothing else.

And the ground has also been specially treated, covered with a layer of cork, which is very elastic to step on and not easily damaged.

At this moment, Loy is practicing here.

The latest novel is first published in 6 9 books!

He put on a one-armed handstand posture, with his legs crossed in mid-air, and the other hand stretched back as far as possible.

This action is not something ordinary people can do. It is extremely challenging to the core strength of the waist and abdomen and arm strength.

But Loy is still relatively relaxed. Even with specific breathing, his muscles are pulsating as if they were alive.

One bulge and one contraction, the muscles are like steel bars twisted together. Between the ups and downs, many parts of the body begin to turn red and swell.

However, every time it comes to the end, it is always a little bit short.

Loy had to change his posture again, and once again tried to mobilize the power gushing between the muscles.

Visibly, on his naked skin, large patches of crimson appeared, the blood was full, and the muscles, bones, skin and flesh were tempered.

But what he seeks, the combination of the heart and the seed of life, is always a little bit short.

After trying several times, all ended in failure, and Loy couldn't hold on anymore.

His strength leaked out, and the whole person collapsed on the ground. A large amount of sweat poured out, even forming a wave of heat that spread outward.

Loy glanced at his attribute panel.

[Name: Loy Royfitz]

[Race: Human]

[Occupation: Swift Swordsman (Tier 1 LV5)]

[Strength: 9 (10/100)]

[Agility: 10 (99/100)]

[Constitution: 10 (99/100)]

[Perception: 7 (60/100)]

[Intelligence: 9 (0/0)]

[Skills: Old Continent Common Sense LV3, Swift Sword Skills LV4 (99/100), Cheetah Breathing Method LV3 (99/100), Herbal Identification LV2 (25/100)]

This data can already show that Loy has not been lazy at all. [Constitution] has been maxed out, and the current human limit of 10 points is maintained at its peak.

Moreover, [Strength] has also reached 9 points, which is no worse than those strongmen.

And his main liver's Cheetah Breathing Method is directly pulled to the limit of the current stage, but the problem is, Loy's panel is just a panel, and it can't let him add points at will to break the human limit.

So, he is now stuck at [Cheetah Breathing Method LV3 (99/100)], just one step away from reaching a new level.

But the problem is, this step is like a chasm!

It was also at this time that Teacher Oliveira came over. He handed over the cup, which contained cooled salt water.

Loy took it and took a few sips, and finally asked: "Teacher Oliveira, what's my situation? Why can't I break through?"

Oliveira was silent for a moment before saying: "Loy, you are cultivating too fast, you should stop appropriately!"

Loy shook his head: "Teacher, this is an excuse for mediocrity, not mine.

I can guarantee that although my cultivation speed is fast, every step is extremely solid and the foundation is extremely solid."

"So, the reason why I failed to break through should be because I didn't find the key point?"

Loy got up and said seriously: "Teacher Oliveira, can you give me some guidance?"

Oliveira paused again for a moment, and finally opened his mouth: "You need a kind of throbbing.

The throbbing of the heart can make the heartbeat like a drum, so that the seeds of life can be better activated."

"The best way is?"

"Battle, a battle on the line of life and death!"

The new book is launched, should I be more patient...
