Chapter 243 Design Drawing (Seeking Monthly Pass Recommendation Ticket)
This has also caused Anduin to feel a little worried recently. He obviously has a lot of wealth in his hands, but he still feels short of money.
Faced with this situation, it is impossible to reduce expenditure. It seems that he has to think about ways to increase income. He originally planned to consider starting a business after graduation, so he had to plan ahead.
One month after Anduin returned to his home at No. 277 Diagon Alley, he came to his alchemy laboratory as a routine, sat down in front of the workbench, and casually opened a large piece of parchment, on which was a depiction of Half of the alchemy equipment, and then he looked at the blueprint in front of him, apparently in thought.
He is seriously thinking about the direction of his next work.
Since he was in business, his first choice was of course the alchemy products he was most familiar with, and it couldn't be wasted in a commercial location like Diagon Alley.
Just like the joke with Ms. Purnell, he plans to open a company here to sell alchemy products.
Since he wanted to do business, he had to consider the relationship between supply and demand. Compared to retailing and selling some daily alchemy products, he was more inclined to do business directly with the Ministry of Magic.
If you can become a stable supplier of the Ministry of Magic, it is no better than selling life props one by one.
The Ministry of Magic would not refuse to sell some products that are highly practical, consume a lot of energy, and can significantly improve work efficiency.
And he had already laid the groundwork before. After communicating with Aurors like Moody, he found that his tactical equipment was still very marketable.
Moreover, when doing business with an organization like the Ministry of Magic, you need to consider the column of relationship. It is unrealistic to expect others to come to buy your products because your products are of good quality.
Anduin also helped the Minister of Magic a lot before, and Minister Budnor must be easy to talk about. The new Director of Law Enforcement is Professor Burns' sister, and he is also half of himself. The head of the Auror Command Not to mention Moody, the relationship between the two of them is almost guaranteed now.
Once there is a market, then there is a specific idea, and now we have to consider the product issue.
First of all, the protective amulets, flash amulets, and sonic boom amulets he showed to Moody before can all be used as the main products of normalization. These standard props are all consumables that need to be replenished frequently.
Moreover, after mass production, he can cut corners a little and reduce their duration, so that even if a single amulet is not used, it can only last for three months, and it must be replaced after the time passes. Click on the price, so that you can guarantee continuous sales and cash flow.
Anyway, he is the one who made it, and no one knows the real duration of these props.
And higher-quality tactical equipment, such as anti-magic handcuffs, phase shoes, tactical vests, etc., I believe it will be of great help to those Aurors and strikers who are fighting on the front line, so whether it is the unified equipment of the Ministry of Magic, Whether he came to buy it privately could bring him enough financial resources.
At the same time, he plans to develop some attractive equipment for these field personnel of the Ministry of Magic.
Regarding this point, he actually had an idea for a long time ago. Anduin and Moody had had in-depth exchanges on the problems that the frontline troops often encountered before. He planned to start from these places and get some targeted equipment.
However, what he is considering now is not the issue of products, but the issue of production capacity.
He put his hand on the parchment and fumbled earnestly, thinking about using this instrument under development to solve the problem of production capacity.
To make a stable alchemy item, three elements are needed: materials, runes, and magic power.
In terms of materials, the magic performance and magic power storage capacity should be considered. The stronger the magic performance of the material, the closer the engraved runes will be to the original strength of magic. Therefore, for the same alchemy props, good materials are worse than materials. high strength.
The magic power storage capacity can determine the upper limit of the inscribed rune and the duration of the rune. The so-called upper limit of the rune is similar to casting the fire spell that requires at least 30 ticks of magic power. If you don't use this kind of material, you can't make props that can cast Lihuo.
What needs to be considered in the rune is the accuracy of the inscription, which is not as simple as imagined, because the shape of many finished alchemy props is not a flat piece, and it is a test of effort to inscribe on the material of the curved surface and the broken line. Continuous and stable input of magic power, otherwise it will be difficult to complete.
The last piece of magic power is naturally the energy that drives the entire magic item, but unless excellent materials are used, the magic power on many alchemy items will dissipate over time, and there are many alchemy items in use Sometimes you need to enter magic power into it to activate, such as those throwing amulets made by Anduin.
Of course, the alchemy props used by Anduin all have a rechargeable function. If the mana is not enough, just refill it, which greatly prolongs the service life.
Not enough. If it was a mass-produced alchemy product, he wouldn't be so considerate. After all, there is a loss before it can be replenished.
So making an alchemy prop is not as simple as imagined. Cutting the material, shaping the shape, and maintaining the magic power for inscription, even for a skilled hand like Anduin, such a process would take a lot of time.
If the products sold in business are handmade one by one like this, it would be a waste of time, which is why the number of props produced by many alchemy workshops is not particularly large.
To solve such a problem, we must either make high-end products and make one piece for a year, or we must recruit people and ask employees to assist in the process.
What Anduin wanted to sell was consumable equipment commonly used by Aurors, and the quantity would definitely not be small, but hiring someone would increase the cost.
Selling too cheap will result in less profit, and selling too expensive will result in less sales.
So in order to solve the problem of production capacity, he decided to get the equipment on the drawing in front of him first.
And the blueprint he is designing is a magic lathe that can process alchemy props independently.
In his vision, as long as materials are added to this magic lathe, it will be able to cut, shape, and accurately complete the engraving work on its own.
It is equivalent to setting up an automated production line in his underground laboratory to seamlessly produce those standardized props 24 hours a day.
Among them, the material is very simple. Anyway, he would not use high-hardness materials such as Ulim steel for this kind of standard equipment, and use the power of the machine to divide and suppress semi-finished products with a fixed shape.
Moreover, compared with hand-made, the finished product shaped by the machine may be more accurate and more consistent in specifications.
