Chapter 1188: Keeping a house, making money, meeting bulletins

"No, although the Tower of Time has earned a lot now, it costs more. Soon there will be a large number of apprentices promoted to official mages, and the maintenance cost of the Tower of Time will be greatly increased.
"In addition, there is also the cost of purchasing magic materials from the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce. In case the sales of the magic items of the Tower are not good, the tens of thousands of gold coins may be the last straw!"
After finishing speaking, Niya questioned the number of murlocs about the financial situation of the Tower of Time itself, "only two murlocs have been discovered now!
"Even if there are more fish that have slipped through the net, at present, it will not have much impact on the territory. There is no need to mobilize so much. It will not be too late to wait until they are more in number."
Niya's remarks are well-founded, but Xia Duo still insists on her own opinion. If we don't start controlling when the number of murlocs is small, and when the number of murlocs increases, the cost of governance at that time will be many times what it is now.
And we must also consider the variables that may exist during this period, such as the "goodwill" of the elves again. Will they come to liberate the murlocs after liberating the gnomes?
Xia Duo listened to Niya with these thoughts, and Niya's attitude was relaxed, so Xia Duo changed directions and continued to persuade:
"Do you know how much the development plan currently led by Savile will cost each month?"
"How many?" Niya asked directly.
She could have inquired about relevant information through Taring, but since Xia Duo deliberately mentioned it, she was also willing to listen to Xia Duo's explanation.
"At least 15,000 gold coins every month!"
"Ah! So many?!"
Niya was very surprised by such a number. If she remembered correctly, the territory only gave 5 silver coins a day to the leaders who volunteered to participate in the development. Why did you need so many gold coins in a month?
Niya roughly calculated, based on the monthly expenditure of 15,000 gold coins, then at least one thousand people will work for 30 days each month.
This number does not conform to her intuition, nor does it conform to the pioneering facts she has learned.
So Niya couldn't help but looked at Xia Duo suspiciously, "Couldn't you make up this number casually? Just to persuade me to send someone to clean up the murloc?"
"how come?"
Xia Duo shook his head. Since he was able to parse subconscious information, he no longer lied easily. Even if he wanted to lie, he would lie for the sake of lying. It was a selective strategy and would not lie for other purposes. This violated him. The heart.
It can be said that he has basically achieved the unity of knowledge and action, especially after becoming a senior arcanist, what existence is worthy of lying and deceiving against his heart?
"Niya, you neglected the extra expenditure of the territory guard during the development period, as well as the consumption of food and tools, and even the cost of compensation for casualties. In addition, some senior adventurers are also worth a higher salary. 15,000 gold coins a month , This number is actually not that much."
After listening to Niya thoughtfully, "Unconsciously, the stall of the Tower of Time has been spread so big!"
"You shouldn't underestimate the potential of the Tower of Time. The problem you just mentioned about the increase in maintenance costs of the Tower of Time caused by the mass promotion of apprentices is not a problem. They themselves can bring a lot of benefits. In addition, when I come back from Leyson , I will make a batch of high-quality spiritual amulet-well, it can be regarded as a supplement for the family!
In fact, if Xia Duo really wants to make money, there are a lot of options.
Apart from anything else, as long as he speaks out and is willing to serve as a mage consultant for a certain chamber of commerce, even if he doesn't do any work, he just puts on his name and can collect at least a few thousand gold coins every month.
Doing a little work, there is an extra salary, even higher than the nominal consultant fee, working hard, you can earn a common mage tower in five or six years.
This kind of speed of making money is equivalent to making 200 million in five or six years on the earth, an average of more than 30 million a year, which is not too exaggerated.
If you do more private work and extra money, then you can make money faster.
Basically, a mage, as long as it reaches the stage of a high-level mage, if there is no grand goal to achieve, only one person can live very well.
Not to mention the senior arcanist, even now, with a territory and a mage tower dragged by, Xia Duo has never worried about money.
Compared with when he had just crossed here, he had to worry about even a copper coin. At this time, his view of money had changed drastically.
"That's the case. The murloc problem can't be delayed. When I get it back from Leyson, I will find a way to make some money. I will definitely not let the Tower of Time and Savile lead the bankruptcy!"
"Well, I believe you!"
In the end, Niya was persuaded. In fact, she had agreed to the moment when she knew that the development plan of the Savile leader to connect with the Daxia leader to the south would cost at least 15,000 gold coins a month.
However, after spending another 10,000 gold coins a month, after the mentality is flat, even if it doubles again, I don't feel much pressure anymore.
"At that time, let me go to the magic mechanic's office to help!" Niya said suddenly.
Xia Duo immediately became happy. In fact, with the production method of the Magic Mechanic Office, one more Niya wouldn't get much improvement.
It’s not that Niya, who is a high-level mage and arcanist, is useless at all, but that the products produced by the current magic mechanics only come with some low-level spells, and the production process has been completely broken down. .
In this case, the effect that Niya can actually play is not essentially different from that of a low-level mage.
It is the production line that limits Niya's play!
Only when the high-end production line is opened in the future, will it be time for the high-ranking mages to completely liberate their own productivity!
However, Niya has this heart, and Xia Duo will not attack her. Recently, Niya has been busy researching communication fan locks, and the progress is not satisfactory. It may be a good thing to change jobs temporarily and adjust her mood.
"Then I wish the magic mechanic Niya will make a lot of money soon!"
"Huh, that's for sure!"
Niya raised her head and said quite proudly.
…
Time flies, and five days have passed.
Xia Duo, who had just returned from Sevinton a few days ago, set off again, but this time he did not go to Sevinton, although he could indeed do it, and even should do it to a certain extent.
But he still gave up.
The invitation of the Great Arcanist Joint Meeting, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com, he has already refused. The discussion on the study of the Demon Summoning, if not surprising, this time should have been rejected.
The Sevinton Parliament's explanation on the liberation of the dwarf had already been transmitted to the southern border through the Austrian Law Federation the day before yesterday.
Unsurprisingly, it was indeed Komanso's request for Netheril to join the Northland Alliance in conjunction with the rest of the Northland countries.
Of course, correspondingly, Comanso and other countries also agreed to many conditions of Netheril, and solved many historical problems.
For example, in the past, Komanzo often drove the orcs into Netheril, and the eastern lands were overwhelmed, but helpless.
It should be known that most of the eastern leaders have inextricably linked relationships with Jannick Tower, and many of them are directly in the Jannick Tower camp.
This is helpless, showing the extent of the problem.
For another example, in the past, the Komanzo elves often entered the territory of Netheril without permission, and various disputes occurred from time to time.
In most cases, it is humans who ultimately suffer.
