Chapter 473
Half an hour later, Elena led Vivi downstairs for breakfast.
Vivi changed her clothes. After all, she was just going out for a walk, so there was no need to wear such practical equipment.
And it was not good to irritate Elena so early. She had finally improved her mood, and now was not the time for the two sisters to quarrel.
It was just surprising that Elena and the others seemed to have left first. After all, Elena and Vivi had dragged on for too long, and they probably assumed that the two would not go out. It was not surprising that they went out first.
Kodorev stayed in the hall, enjoying the elf food prepared by the special chef and drinking tea made from top-grade tea leaves. He looked quite comfortable.
"Yo, good morning."
Seeing the arrival of Elena and Vivi, Kodorev greeted them casually. He was always so casual and unpretentious when he was with Elena.
"Well, morning."
"Dean, good morning."
Elena's response was also very simple, but Vivi seemed a little nervous.
After all, she had only joined Freya Academy not long ago and was not familiar with the dean. The noble high elves gave people the feeling that it was indeed difficult for people to get close to them, so it was not surprising that Weiwei felt nervous.
They found a seat and sat down side by side. Soon the waiter came over with the food. The exquisite nutrition was scientifically matched, and the taste and appearance were also top-notch. The main feature of the luxury hotel was a meticulous service.
The waiter seemed to want to serve further, but was rejected by Elena with a wave of his hand.
People like him and Weiwei who were not nobles could not accept this level of enthusiasm.
After breakfast, Elena and Weiwei said goodbye to Kodorev and walked onto the street. Facing the alchemists who kept hawking, Elena's eyes shone with excitement.
He couldn't help it when he was in the carriage yesterday. Now he could finally go around. He immediately took Weiwei to the nearest stall to check.
The shop owner is an old alchemist who looks to be in his 40s or 50s. He has a lot of magic tools in his hands, which are so densely packed on the ground that it is dazzling.
However, there are very few customers. It seems that most people who come here have no interest in these alchemists who set up stalls. They all go to famous shops supported by certain chambers of commerce to buy.
Elaina doesn't like those crowded shops. On the contrary, he prefers this kind of stalls. After all, there is a feeling of picking up bargains.
When he was still a mercenary, Elaina often went to the underground black market and often found some unexpected good goods.
It just tests people's eyesight and ability to turn waste into treasure. After all, it is difficult to buy intact things in the black market, and it is normal to have any problems.
In front of the stall, Elaina picked up something that looked like a fan and played with it in his hand. Seeing this, the alchemist immediately explained enthusiastically.
"You have good taste, sir. This is the magic whirlwind I developed. It is the best helper in the hot summer. As long as you turn on this prop, it will continuously deliver cool breeze to relieve your heat!"
After finally getting a guest, the old alchemist can be said to have tried his best to promote it, and explained the purpose of the prop with great enthusiasm.
Listening to the other party's introduction, Elaina raised her eyebrows. It really sounded no different from an ordinary fan. It is indeed a very convenient thing for some ordinary families who can't use magic.
After all, we can't expect everyone to use wind magic or ice magic to cool down. If it is done well, this thing can improve the lives of many people.
Fiddling with the prop in his hand to find a switch, but after observing for a long time, Elaina didn't find anything like a switch, only a modified magic core that stored magic power and had extremely low conversion efficiency.
Elaina injected magic power into it and found that it was very difficult to make the fan turn. The consumption of this magic power is simply not something that ordinary people can bear.
"No, no, guest, you can't drive it directly with magic power. You have to inject the magic power of the wind element into it. Only by using the wind element to drive the fan blades can you drive this prop more easily."
Seeing Elena doing this, the old alchemist hurriedly corrected her, took another similar magic prop, injected it with wind magic, and only used one-tenth of Elena's magic power to drive the fan blades. The wind was quite strong and cool.
"You need to use the wind element to drive it?"
"Yes."
"Then why don't I just use the wind element to blow directly at my face? Why bother?"
"Ah... this..."
Elena immediately pointed out the fatal flaw of this magic prop. Since the wind element can be used, there is no need to find such a magic prop that needs to be driven by the wind element.Enjoy the cool?
Even if you change to a modified magic core with a higher conversion rate, it is definitely not as comfortable as blowing wind magic directly on your face.
"What about this lighter?"
Elena set his sights on another magic item, which was very similar to the lighter in his impression in terms of shape and structure.
"Lighter? Are you talking about this magic flamethrower? This is also a good thing. As long as you inject fire magic, this lighter can spray out a flame that can be adjusted freely. Whether it is used for heating or when you need to make fire when you go out, it is a very convenient item."
As expected, it is still a lighter that needs fire magic to drive. Elena is a little speechless. How can the other party make so many similar items with such obvious defects?
It is no wonder that no one comes to this stall. They sell useless garbage. Who would come to this unreliable stall to buy goods after encountering so many such things?
"Then have you ever considered that people who can use fire elemental magic can directly use magic to keep warm and make fire?"
Elena said speechlessly, and the other party immediately shifted his gaze after hearing this. Obviously, the other party had also considered this matter.
The reason why they still put it out for sale is nothing more than wanting to find a sucker to sell it to. After all, if they don't sell something to make up for their losses, low-level alchemists like them will not be able to eat.
"Have you ever considered installing some engravings that can store magic power and transform magic power attributes? Targeting users are those who have no magic power or have a single type of magic power and low magic power. With your products centered around the concept of convenience, you should be able to sell some of them more or less."
"Are you kidding? How rare and expensive do you think the magic core that can store magic power is? And how can someone like me learn such a difficult thing as the engraving that transforms magic elements? Even if I can make it, the cost of the props can't be reduced.
For the two props you are looking at, each one has to be sold for more than ten silver coins. If I really change it according to your suggestion, I am afraid that I can only make a profit by selling it for one gold coin. Such expensive things are not valued by rich people at all, and ordinary people can't afford them at all, right?!"
The old alchemist said angrily. It's not that he didn't consider what Elena said. The reason why he didn't do it was naturally because he couldn't do it.
