Chapter 3075: Cultivating the Soil for Transformation

Regarding the cooperation proposed by Xia Duo, Aosi did not flatly refuse; instead, he showed an expression of interest, so Xia Duo then proposed a more specific, further plan.

For example, one could start with the self-production and self-marketing of Computing Pool Connector Magic Artifacts, then gradually expand production capacity to sell outside of Ailan, and subsequently rely on the Computing Power Pool project to deeply cultivate related Magic Artifacts.

One could also open up new Magic Artifacts in other domains, either competing with other countries or creating entirely new categories; although Ailan's population is small, that is only relative to the total numbers of other countries.

If Ailan were developed into a super workshop, then the entire population could be counted as Magic Technicians, which would far exceed the scale of other countries.

At the same time, because Ailan is currently in a state where it cannot even be self-sufficient in food, the wages for Magic Technicians do not need to meet the standards of other countries at all.

Of course, this is not to say that in order to maintain the low-wage status of Ailan's Magic Technicians, one must constantly restrict the food within Ailan's borders.

Rather, due to Ailan's own special state, even if it returns to normal, the wage level of Magic Technicians will still be lower than in other countries, not to mention that once it develops into a super workshop with a workforce of technicians, it will be even more of a reason to suppress prices.

If you don't do it, there are plenty of other technicians who will.

Once it starts like this, perhaps other countries will also scramble to cultivate Magic Technicians; however, no matter how low-level the Magic Technicians are, they are still proper Spellcasters. As long as the base number increases, a large group of geniuses will always emerge to complete a true transformation.

Currently, we are actually cultivating the soil for transformation.

But all of that has not yet spread; if Fuyikang were attracted by the immense benefits of what Fuyikang calls a super project, perhaps he would actively accelerate this process.

On the surface, the significantly increased service life of Gateway Magic Tools is beneficial for the Tower of Time's shipments, but this is very unfavorable for the stable operation of the Computing Power Pool, and thus unfavorable for the Ailan Network Research Center, and unfavorable for Xia Duo and all related stakeholders.

"Is this meeting related to the abnormal wear and tear of the Gateway Magic Tools?"

Xia Duo considered it for a moment and decided to temporarily suspend food transport; mainly because a lot had already been transported in the last few days. After all, transport via the Void Warehouse is far more efficient than traditional methods, and there is no need to continue provoking Fuyikang at this juncture.

"Of course, during this period, I still represent Aosi in hoping that you will temporarily abandon transporting food to Lingsi in a private capacity. As for Lingsi, you need not worry; Aosi guarantees that not a single Lingsi Elf will die of famine."

Even if Aosi opposes or suppresses it, the significance is actually not great. Evereska is also gradually relaxing restrictions on the popularization of Magic; although it is only a small opening, it will eventually continue to expand.

"Yes."

He could smell something unusual from Xia Duo's narrative, but he could not figure out the deeper layers for the time being; however, he was not in a hurry to express his stance, and he himself had no authority to do so.

"Most of them are here, and a small portion has been taken by Researchers for inspection and study."

Recycling scrapped Magic Artifacts is an extra income for various countries; of course, for the Ailan Network Research Center, it is an effective way to reduce costs.

The level of these research personnel is far inferior to that of the Time-Related Magic Research Laboratory. The most obvious point is that, as of now, not a single high-level Mage is willing to join, while that side already has double digits!

"That is acceptable."

Currently, the person in charge of the Tower of Time externally is Xia Duo, and the Ailan Network Research Center certainly dares not question Xia Duo, but this is not a reason for Xia Duo to mess around.

"There is still a portion that hasn't been recovered in time. I have already sent new personnel to check; there should be news very soon. However, it seems that various countries have privately withheld a portion of the scrapped Magic Artifacts. How should this be handled?"

Under this, there are Level 1 Researchers and Assistant Researchers. The former can enter the Laboratory and also have the Permission Level to operate the Computing Power Pool under the temporary authorization of a Level 2 Researcher, while the latter are purely there to make up the numbers, mostly doing miscellaneous chores.

Although no one has raised any questions yet, those parties who are profiting from the Computing Power Pool must have already kept a tally in their hearts, just waiting for such mistakes to accumulate so they can pull Xia Duo down in one fell swoop!

After seeing off Yierlantusi, Xia Duo sat in his office for a while, finished processing all the pending Documents, and then sent a Sending to Charles to ask how the collection of scrapped Gateway Magic Tools from various countries was going.

After pondering for a moment, he told Xia Duo, "This matter is of great importance. I need to report it to my country, but please rest assured, Consultant Xia Duo, I will definitely give you a formal reply in a short time."

Xia Duo certainly would not call all the Level 2 Researchers to a meeting just because of one Gateway Magic Tool. Currently, the personnel configuration of the Ailan Network Research Center is still very backward; Level 2 Researchers are already the top tier, basically composed of Elite Mages and a few senior Mages.

"Then I look forward to the reply from the Aosi side."

That is the most critical point.

When Xia Duo proposed building Lingsi into a super workshop and put forward a series of specific implementation plans, Yierlantusi could no longer hide the extremely serious expression on his face.

"Are all the recovered ones in the Ku Fang?"

Most of these recycled scrapped Magic Artifacts do not go through the Research Center but are directly handed over to related cooperative chambers of commerce for collection and processing, used to offset part of the payments for new orders.

Finally, Xia Duo is in charge of both the Ailan Network Research Center and the Tower of Time. In this incident, the interests are highly consistent, and there is no talk of abusing public office for private gain.

And because the Tower of Time is the only supplier of Gateway Magic Tools, there is inevitably a delay when dealing with it. If it were other chambers of commerce, I am afraid the relevant person in charge would have long been ordered to the Alliance Headquarters to accept an Inquiry.

Not to mention that Xia Duo's Great Xia Territory has long since begun comprehensive popularization of Magic education. If Aosi cannot keep up with this, perhaps the status of an old-fashioned power will end here.

For example, entering the Laboratory to retrieve or place materials and equipment under authorization, helping official Researchers find information, cleaning, and so on.

"It is related, but it is not the main point. You sit for a while first; when the others arrive, I will explain it all at once."

"Understood. Notify all Level 2 Researchers to come to the large conference room for a meeting."

Therefore, Xia Duo must resolve this matter as soon as possible. On the other hand, from the perspective of the Tower of Time, if the abnormal wear and tear of the Gateway Magic Tools is not investigated and properly resolved as soon as possible, it will lead to a loss of credibility.

The money the Tower of Time earns cannot compensate for the latter's losses at all.

In the conference room, Xia Duo arrived early and was calculating in his heart the content he would speak about later. Before long, Hewaisita came to the seat next to him and sat down, subconsciously looking around before asking in a low voice:

"The Sub-network is on their territory; if they want to withhold it, they will. Just set a recovery deadline in the future; anything past the deadline will not be accepted." Xia Duo responded very decisively.

It is just that there was an accident this time, and the Gateway Magic Tools were scrapped before reaching the expected service life. The Research Center that received the relevant news must, of course, deal with it.

In fact, whether it is the Gateway Magic Tools or the Computing Pool Connector, it is all paid for by the Alliance; specifically, it goes through the accounts of the Ailan Network Research Center.
