Chapter 15: Engraving

　　 After more than a year of contact, especially when compiling a dictionary together, Ace has confirmed that Peter is a kind person, and has a strong influence in the city-state cultural circle, and is the most suitable collaborator.
　　 "Please don't have craniotomy. It is my honor to cooperate with you, teacher."
　　The study room is full of pleasant atmosphere.
　　 Ace has been planning for a long time. He finally obtained the desired status, fame and citizenship right through the dictionary. Now he can do things he wanted to do but didn’t dare to do.
Using engraving and printing technology to promote the popularization of books step by step, he became the largest printer and publisher in the city-state and even in the entire Sarria Peninsula, and provided strong financial support for his research on extraordinary mysteries. He didn’t care who led the business, as long as he could get Enough points to achieve the line.
　　 He still does not have enough prestige and funds. Peter is the best collaborator. As for how he becomes bigger and stronger, he still has the confidence to follow up with papermaking and movable type printing.
　　 can be accompanied by the improvement of status and start to use other technologies in the previous life to expand the industry, but the industry is not the goal, his goal is not to become a trust in another world, but to be extraordinary.
　　 In this world, the absolute power of extraordinary creatures suppresses all dissatisfaction. Everything in the mortal world is at your fingertips. Most heroes never care about operating the industry. As long as they want, mortals will contribute everything. Industry is just a tool for pursuing the extraordinary road, not an end.
　　 Ace entrusted his father to find a familiar carpenter to prepare blank engravings, and then borrowed a few disciples from Peter, among them Morton, his teacher of text enlightenment.
　　 Morton was also very emotional. In just over a year, Ace went from a half-year-old who didn't know how to write to the youngest scholar in the city, and even organized them to engage in engraving and printing together.
"Mr. Morton, seniors, thank you for your help. We need half a month to write the contents of the dictionary in thick ink on parchment paper and quickly paste it on the blank engraving plate so that the carpenter can directly engrave the reverse. The written text is used for printing. This work is very cumbersome, and it is a big trouble for the seniors to fill in. This is a small remuneration, 50 silver talers per person, please don’t dislike it."
　　 was originally a somewhat unhappy person who was drawn to work as a coolie, and he could earn fifty silver talers in half a month, and he felt a little more relaxed.
　　 Studying with Teacher Peter, the cost is still very high. It costs fifty silver talers a month. The expenses of a family of three for half a year can be subsidized a little.
　　 The engraving work is progressing smoothly. After finishing the engraving, Ace entrusted Romon to take charge of the printing.
　　 He converted the original house in the 8th block into a ready-made room, and hired seven or eight men and women for the price of 40 copper talers a day to print and bind the Common Vocabulary Common Language Dictionary.
　　 Although there are slaves in the city-states, one has to sell 1-2 kintales, which is too expensive.
　　 And only nobles and citizens have the right to keep slaves. The law stipulates that nobles and citizens have the right to keep no more than 20 slaves in the city. After purchasing land outside the city, they have the right to keep no more than 3,000 slaves.
After the 300 copies were printed successfully, Romon brought the first batch of books to Peter’s servant Joan. He was the chief steward of Peter’s family and was responsible for the specific sales. He set a price of 50 silver talers and copied a book on the market. To give the book owner half to a quintal, this price is not expensive.
　　 But after removing the cost, a book has made nearly ten times the profit. If the output increases significantly, the cost will continue to be diluted, which is indeed a huge profit.
　　 As for the follow-up, if the response is good, Ace and Peter also plan to engrave and print books with a wide audience such as "Myth" and "Epic", and control the sales price and output. This is what Joan and Romon should consider.
　　 Ace is now completely obsessed with developing mental power and doesn't care about other things at all. After experimenting, he found several conditions for improving the effect of mental exercise:
　　 One is the environment, the quiet natural environment, the morning light in the morning, in places such as mountain tops, woods, waterfalls, etc., it is best to rotate, and the effect is wonderful;
　　 The second is the mood. It calms the mood before and after exercise, reduces mood swings and distracting thoughts, and the effect is very good;
　　 The third is objects. The use of lead products to exercise is the most difficult. Lead seems to be relatively inert to mental interference, and the exercise effect is also good;
　　 The fourth is intensity. Every time you exercise, you have to feel very tired, and you have the last bit of extra energy, which is just right;
　　 The fifth is a combination of work and rest. After exercising once a day, you need adequate rest and adequate nutrition.
　　 He combined these five conditions as the Five-Step Meditation. And in the nearest town of the city-state, the town of Buku bought a manor with a beautiful environment. The town of Buku is very close to the city-state and the transportation is convenient. Although there are a few low-level monsters infested, it is much better than the wilderness.
　　 Mother Marina was worried about him and followed. Romon also hired two veterans to protect their safety.
　　 Ace went to meditate quietly every morning, and then went home to sleep until noon, eat a big meal, and then practice martial arts with two veterans, and check the collection of miscellaneous books at night. It is very regular.
　　 After meditating with the five-step meditation idea for almost a month, Ace clearly felt that his martial arts was also improving rapidly, and all kinds of skills were readily available, with eyes, hands, and hearts.
　　 If he were older, he would be a very outstanding warrior among mortals. This is the benefit of extraordinary spiritual power.
　　 You can imagine the aristocracy that has inspired the potential of the bloodline, and what kind of transcendence is, and the hero with special power is an existence that mortals can't reach.
In a flash, the end of the year was reached, and Ace’s mental power was greatly enhanced. He used his spiritual power to lift one kilogram of silver products, and now he can lift a maximum of five kilograms. Silver products too. The maximum interference range is expanded from one meter in radius to three meters in radius.
　　 In addition, he slowly awakened his perception power, and his mental power was more keenly aware of the mental fluctuations of nearby creatures.
　　 He tried to drive iron swords, daggers and other weapons, but unfortunately the flying speed was too slow to hurt people at all, and the idea of ​​the sword was directly disillusioned.
　　 is to drive the needle, the speed will be much faster, but if you want to kill people directly, you need too high operation skills.
　　 He believes that the fundamental reason is that the mental power is not strong enough and needs more exercise.
Life in Buku Town is not unpredictable. I have encountered some troubles, but as long as the veterans take action, the ruffians will basically deliver food. As for some troubles in the town hall, Ace’s academic status will let them know what is. despair.
　　 Romon asked his servant to give him a letter, which wrote,
　　 "Dear Ace, Mr. Peter asked you to visit his villa soon. He has already talked to Tylos and introduced you to Tylos to study medicine. You are so smart and you will definitely become an excellent doctor.
Our family’s printing business is getting better and better. The "Myth" and "Epic" that we and Mr. Peter co-printed have received great acclaim, and the "Dictionary" has also been printed. The City Library also commissioned us to print the "Medimo". The three hundred volumes of "The Story of Sijian City" seem to be distributed to all the nobles for study.
　　 I also collected some fresh medical materials that you asked me to get. You can come to see how well the materials are. "
　　 It seems that my father got some low-level monsters with unique abilities, and he just went back to study them. After reading the letter, Ace lit a candle, called his mother Marina and the two veterans, and simply cleaned up, and left Buku Town in a carriage.
　　 (If you think it’s not bad, and hope to collect the book, vote for a few recommendations!)
