My Magic Age

The second price war between the ‘Fire Gathering Technique’ and ‘Miniature Tornado’ rune plates has just begun, and almost all rune plate workshops in the imperial capital have suspended the business of these two rune plates. Even those junior inscriptionists who have mastered the magic pattern arrays of ‘Fire Gathering Technique’ and ‘Miniature Tornado’ have been forced to give up drawing these two rune plates and try to draw other magic rune plates.

Once the copper hot pot and exhaust fan of the magic pattern red copper rune plate came out, it made the days of the workshops producing these two rune plates in the imperial capital difficult.

Even if those rune plate workshops reduced the price of blank rune plates to the lowest and left all the profit margins to the junior inscriptionists, the cost of each traditional model ‘Fire Gathering Technique’ rune plate still could not be reduced to less than 70 silver coins.

However, this price is exactly the price of the new copper hot pot.

The price of a copper hot pot in the copperware store will not be less than fifteen silver coins, which means that the rune plate workshops must at least reduce the price of the traditional fire gathering rune plate to fifty-five silver coins per piece, so that the merchants in the magic store can make a profit.

At the beginning, the rune plate workshops and junior inscription masters in the imperial capital believed that someone must be disrupting the magic market behind the scenes, and the price reduction was also a malicious competition to drag down the opponent, so some rune plate workshops chose to persist even if they lost money.

But they didn't expect that they would persist until the spring of the following year at this price...

After the dwarf craftsmen installed a batch of high-precision gears and transmission shafts on the magic engraving machines in the Xinliu Valley blacksmith shop, the success rate of these magic engraving machines engraving magic patterns suddenly made a qualitative leap, and the "Fire Gathering" and "Miniature Tornado" magic rune plates had new breakthroughs. The reduction in the scrap rate not only greatly reduced the manufacturing cost, but also significantly increased the output of rune plates.

At the Rune Workshop, Murray recently recruited several assembly workers to barely assemble all the rune plates produced by Xin Liugu.

In the eyes of other rune workshop owners, copper hot pots and exhaust fans basically lose about ten silver coins for each unit sold, but for me, these Fire Gathering Rune Plates and Miniature Tornado Rune Plates are actually profitable, and the monthly income from these two rune plates alone is nearly five hundred magic crystals.

Therefore, there was the second price reduction after the Magic Seal Workshop's manufacturing technology innovation.

This time, I asked Murray to reduce the price of the copper hot pot to fifty silver coins per unit, and the price of each red copper magic pattern 'Fire Gathering' rune plate to thirty-five silver coins, and the 'Miniature Tornado' rune plate also made the same price adjustment. This price has just appeared in the magic store and announced, and the magic market in the entire imperial capital is boiling over it.

Those junior inscriptionists finally let go of their last pride and persistence. They chose to try to draw other types of magic rune boards. Although this familiarization process will be long and will cost these inscriptionists a high tuition fee, it is better than hanging on a tree.

…

In the past, the Magic Seal Workshop could only make a qualified giant crossbow with dual magic attributes for every 25 giant crossbow arrows it printed, and it also came with four or five giant crossbow arrows with single attributes.

But now, when the old dwarf craftsmen replaced those easily worn copper gears with high-precision fine steel gears, the success rate of printing giant crossbow arrows increased to one giant crossbow with dual magic attributes for every fifteen.

Not only that, the success rate of single-attribute magic crossbow arrows is basically the same as that of waste crossbow arrows, which means that at least half of the remaining fourteen giant crossbow arrows are single-attribute magic crossbow arrows that can operate freely.

In this way, the dual-attribute giant crossbow arrows made by the two magic seal machines in the magic seal workshop can not only meet the consumption of my own barbarian slave troops, but also be sold to the outside world. These dual-attribute giant crossbow arrows can immediately bring me huge profits.

At the same time, the single-attribute giant crossbow arrows produced by the magic seal workshop will replace the non-attribute giant crossbow arrows and become one of the main magic items sold to the outside world.

The "penetration" effect giant crossbow arrows that used to cost thirty-five silver coins will be reduced to twenty silver coins, and the "sharp" effect giant crossbow arrows that cost twenty-five silver coins will be reduced to fifteen silver coins. In this way, the "sharp" attribute giant crossbow arrows are already very close to the ordinary giant crossbow arrows that cost four silver coins each. Moreover, the giant crossbow arrows on this bed crossbow can often be used repeatedly. Perhaps more lords will be willing to accept the price of single-attribute giant crossbow arrows.

…

The four old dwarves are busy making the third-generation new magic engraving machine at the Xinliu Valley Blacksmith Shop.

The production plan of the two magic rune plates, "Glimmer Illumination" and "Continuous Frost" designed by Yekis scholars, is included in the schedule. The former will be made into a magic wall lamp, and the latter will be used to make a freezer.

These two magic items are mainly for the nobles in the imperial capital. As long as they want to improve the quality of life, I believe that these magic items are indispensable in their lives.

In addition, in order to support the plane war, especially to improve the combat effectiveness of the five hundred barbarian slaves, I also want to further increase the power of the giant crossbow arrows. At present, the double-attribute giant crossbow arrows are indestructible, so this time I set my sights on the arrow shafts of the giant crossbow arrows. According to my initial idea, I want to inlay a "Primary Wind Control" magic rune plate on these arrow shafts made of indigo wood and hard oak wood, so that the range of the giant crossbow arrows can be increased by at least one-fourth.

And this time, a semicircular thin copper plate is embedded on the arrow shaft to create a ‘Primary Wind Control’ rune plate, so it will not be difficult to print this rune plate, and the price of this ‘Primary Wind Control’ magic rune plate will not be higher than thirty silver coins in the future.

The new giant crossbow will be promoted and used in my barbarian slave team.

Speaking of those barbarian slaves, they are currently under the leadership of Kalancuo and Justus, cooperating with the Yelo natives in the dense forest of Green Valley to fight against the spider warriors in the two major spider camps in the east and west. There are a total of six spider warlords stationed in these two spider camps. Even so, Kalancuo's wolf attack tactics still made the spider warriors suffer enough.

When encountering a Spider Commander, Kalancuo would let the Orc Construct Warriors ride warhorses to circle around him in the dense forest. Once the Spider Commander leaves the cover of the Spider Warriors and is left alone in the dense forest, he will be immediately led into an ambush circle. There will be not only nearly 400 barbarian slaves waiting for the Spider Commander, but also a large area of ​​fire walls. Even if the Spider Commander can rush out of this ambush circle, he will be entangled by the vines of the tree spirits in the dense forest.

The tree spirits in the dense forest of Green Valley have not only provided us with convenient forest passages and information about the Nibru spiders, they have joined the battle against the Nibru spiders. Although these tree spirits cannot move in the dense forest, they can use vines to entangle the Nibru spiders passing by them.

In the recent few times I have taken time to return to the Yero plane, I have only been in the Trum camp, rushing with a group of barbarian slaves and female orcs to transport the supplies in the underground warehouse of Xinliu Valley.

Since there are more than 3,000 workers working day and night in the Trum camp, a large amount of infrastructure materials are consumed every day recently. Although there are rich forest resources around the camp, other materials are transported from the underground warehouse of Xinliu Valley. In particular, a large amount of stone stored in the Xinliu Valley quarry is continuously transported to the underground warehouse by light rail mine cars and carried to the Trum camp by barbarian slaves.

Fortunately, enough barbarian slaves were captured in winter hunting. Although their rough nature has not been completely worn out in the quarry, it is still no problem to let them come to the underground warehouse to transport stones.

Especially when they saw the fifty barbarian slave warriors stationed at the Trum camp, wearing full-cover black iron armor and carrying huge heavy crossbows, they would always have delicious giant spider leg meat to eat when they moved around in the Trum camp. The meat aroma made these barbarian slaves carrying stones salivate, so they found that their future slave life was actually acceptable...

So these barbarian slaves became full of strength, carrying stones and striding between the portals.

During this period, Kalancuo asked the orc construct warriors to bring me a large amount of black magic crystals from the Green Valley Forest twice, including two high-level magic crystals. She and Justus actually led the barbarian slaves and orc warriors to hunt down two spider warlords in the Green Valley Forest.

This really surprised me.

I didn't expect that these powerful spider warlords who could overpower the second-turn warriors in battle would die at the hands of Kalancuo and Justus.

The two beautiful annihilation battles commanded by Kalancuo also made the dwarf Bernd see the fact that dwarves are not suitable for commanding battles in the Green Valley Forest. So Bernd returned to the Trum Camp from the indigenous tribe in the Green Valley Forest, and he also brought back a large number of magic herbs.

Since I made the first magic herb transaction with Elder Singer, Elder Singer found that these magic herbs in the tribe were so valuable. Not only can they be exchanged for a large number of delicious wheat cakes for the indigenous people, but they can also be exchanged for some weapons and equipment, which are exactly what the indigenous people in the tribe are most short of.

In particular, the Nibru spiders destroyed the ecological balance in the dense forest. The giant spiders hunted prey in the dense forest, and the prey in the forest decreased sharply, which actually affected the survival of these indigenous tribes.

The natives usually rely on gathering and hunting in the forest for a living. The appearance of giant spiders makes it almost impossible for the natives to find other prey in the forest. The natives gradually find that they can't fill their stomachs by just gathering wild fruits. It happened that I appeared in the sight of the natives with some wheat cakes at this time. Elder Singer realized that the magic herbs stored in the tribe's warehouse could be exchanged for a large number of wheat cakes, so he gathered all the magic herbs in the tribe together and prepared to trade with me for the second time.

After learning that the dwarf Bernd decided to return to the Trum camp from the native tribe, Elder Singer asked Bernd to bring these magic herbs back to the Trum camp.

For this reason, he also sent a group of Yelo natives to help Bernd transport this batch of magic herbs.

When the dwarf Bernd returned to the Trum camp with a group of Yelo natives carrying heavy herbs behind them, the residents of Tanton City in the camp were stunned.

Many of them have lived in the city of Tanton for almost half of their lives. In the city of Tanton, Yero indigenous slaves are very common, but no one has ever dealt with these Yale indigenous people.

In the eyes of the residents of Tanton City, the Yero natives are the most primitive and uncivilized savages. They live a primitive life of eating raw meat and drinking blood, and are born as slaves. However, they have never thought that the Yero natives have already had their own civilization in the Black Forest, and they are blessed by the forest kings, the ancient war trees.

The Yero natives have the strength to carry the magic herbs from the dense forest of Green Valley, but they can't carry the wheat flour they exchanged back from the Trum camp, because there is a huge gap between the two materials. The wheat flour they exchanged is almost fifty times the weight of the magic herbs, or even more.

Even if there are another 500 natives, they can't carry all the wheat flour they exchanged back to the tribe.

In order to help the Yero natives transport the wheat flour they exchanged to the tribe in the Green Valley Forest, Catalina found Cassandra and asked her to help transport the grain back to the native tribe for these Yero natives. This was the first time Cassandra took on the business of the natives. Although she was a little hesitant, she still agreed after weighing the pros and cons.

According to her later description: She was also very nervous at the time. After all, she had never dealt with the natives before, and the most important point was that her previous adventure group had also hunted the natives in the Black Forest. She had a certain prejudice against these natives. She was worried that the natives had the same idea as her, but under Catalina's persuasion, she agreed to give it a try.

In this way, the transportation route of Cassandra's carriage transport team extended from the initial round trip between Tanton City and Trum Camp to the area between Tanton City, Trum Camp, and the native tribes in the Green Valley Forest.

Cassandra was initially forced to contact the Yero natives because of Catalina's request, but later she realized that the Yero natives also had a lot of precious resources.

She slowly tried to make some deals with the Yero natives, and now she has frequent exchanges with them.

Standing on the highest north wall of the Trum Camp, I felt the rapid changes in the Trum Camp.

Now the wall of the Trum Camp has taken shape. On top of the original 13-meter-high wall, I asked the workers to increase the wall by 5 meters. For this reason, I had to add an auxiliary wall every 25 meters on the inner side of the wall. These auxiliary walls look like steep stairs from inside the town of Trum.

Every 100 meters, a 50-meter-high arrow tower will be built on the wall.

However, these arrow towers have just built a circular base of more than 30 meters high, and the wooden frames and springboards around the base are still splicing upwards. From a distance, tall buildings wrapped in countless wooden strips stand in front of us...
