I, a mercenary, became a beautiful silver-haired boy

Chapter 474

Cost has almost become an eternal problem, especially in the industry of making magic props. This is something that must be faced.

After all, not all alchemists are rich. Purchasing materials can be a considerable expense. If you don't pay attention, you don't know when you will have to eat dirt.

But there are really few people like Elena who still want to reduce the cost so that ordinary people can afford it. After all, in the eyes of most people, magic props are luxury goods. Whether they are made or bought, they are definitely convenient props for rich people.

Even the grassroots alchemist who made a magic prop like a refrigerator, his works are now five gold coins or more.

Let's not talk about reducing the price. Even because of his reputation, his things are much more expensive than before. It's not strange to get rid of twice the cost price.

The other party probably doesn't care now. If he is famous and makes money, then he is successful. Why should he think so much?

Even if he intends to reduce the price, it is not as simple as marking the magic props cheaper. The production and acquisition of materials need to be solved.

It is unrealistic to expect adventurers to go out every day to collect materials and sell them. This is not only inefficient, but also requires paying adventurers extra prices.

To achieve mass production and evaluation in the true sense, materials may have to be cultivated artificially, so that the output and price can be suppressed.

But if this is really done, it will involve another huge industry. It is a headache to want to cultivate a large number of monsters in this alien world.

Thinking of this, Elena felt that it would be more convenient to use electricity. At least the most basic things can be supplied by electricity. It’s just that only people from the alien world who are proficient in this aspect can bring the sophisticated mechanical technology here, but Elena doesn’t have this ability.

No wonder after so many years and so many time travelers, this world is still like this, without any decent staged development.

In addition to the limitation of some special powers, more of it is that there is no breakthrough in the magic props. People who are used to magic will not focus on the mechanical side. Even if they want to popularize it, it may be quite difficult.

"Hmm? The short teacher of Freya Academy, why are you here?"

Just when Elaina was thinking about it, a not very polite voice came from behind.

Elaina turned her head and found that the person who called her with such a rude name was Emily, the captain of the team of Tyr Academy.

Elaina had an impression of this strong girl. She was quite outstanding in character and temperament, and she could even quarrel with Bart, the crazy teacher of Tyr Academy.

"Who is the short teacher? I have a name, don't tell me you forgot it, classmate Emily."

Such a name would make anyone feel uncomfortable, and Elaina was not a short person at all, and her body shape was even similar to Emily.

But compared with tough guys like Bart, Elaina was indeed a little too petite. Most people in this world were handsome men and beautiful women, and their bodies were relatively tall. Elaina really couldn't compare with these people.

But it was not Emily's turn to say it!

"I remember, of course I remember, Elaina, your name has spread to us. Even if we put aside the exchange meeting, you are quite famous."

Emily's tone was very casual, and she had no awareness of being a "hostile" academy.

What she said was also very interesting. Although it was not obvious, the other party probably knew that Elaina had gone to the principality and successfully slayed the dragon. After all, this was the only event that could spread Elaina's name.

The other party seemed to be out shopping, holding a lot of things in his arms, but they were not the magic props that can be seen everywhere, but some of the most basic materials needed for alchemy.

"Don't be so alert, I'm the only one here. The crazy Bart isn't here, and my friends aren't here either, they've already gone to Hades Academy.

I came here because I have some personal matters to attend to, and I'll probably be on the same magic train with you guys, so don't worry about anything happening, I can't beat so many of you by myself."

Seeing that Elaina and Vivi looked a little nervous, Emily explained lightly that if she didn't express her goodwill first, she probably wouldn't be able to start a conversation.

Emily glanced at Vivi while she was talking, and although it wasn't very obvious, her eyes revealed disdain and contempt.

It was obvious that she didn't like the weak Vivi, after all, a strong person like her would probably be proud of self-reliance.

After the last sparring, she was always trembling behind the team.Weiwei was very dissatisfied. Compared with Shirley, who was also very weak in character but also raised her shield to the front for the team, Weiwei's posture was indeed disappointing.

Sensing Emily's slightly hostile eyes, Elena took the initiative to block in front of Weiwei. He would not watch his sister being bullied.

"I didn't expect that the youngest practical teacher in Freya Academy would be interested in magic. Oh, by the way, you seem to be a student of Sally, the famous alchemist. It's a pity that you can continue to learn from such a person."

Feeling Elena's wary eyes, Emily retracted her contemptuous eyes and returned to her indifferent expression.

Her words made Elena frown in surprise. Although it was not a secret, few people knew that he was learning alchemy under Sally.

Not to mention that Emily is a student from another academy, but she knows everything about the Alchemy Department of Freya Academy. If she doesn't know about alchemy, she probably can't do it. After all, if she doesn't know, there is no way to get these gossips.

"Although Teacher Sally is a little... strange, she is still a good teacher... right?"

As a student, Elaina had to help her teacher when someone said that. But when she recalled how she was doing odd jobs in the office every day, the other party just threw a few books and didn't bother to explain in person.

Elaina was a little shaken as she spoke. Can Sally really be considered a good teacher?

"Ha, it seems that you know much more than me."

Emily was amused. She just listened to other people's description of Sally, but now she saw that the other party's students couldn't say good things about their teacher. She really couldn't hold it.

"At least she won't refuse when I ask her to explain things, and she explains things in great detail. That alone is enough."

Closing her eyes with a complicated expression on her face, Elena thought for a long time and could only squeeze out these words to save face for her teacher.
