Chapter 221 220 Transian Handicraft Industry Upgrade Plan! (Fog)
Chapter 221 220. Transian handicraft upgrade plan! (Mist)
While Happy Stick and Broken Blade Master were bargaining, in another tent in the forward camp, three craftsmen with tailoring skills who escaped from Cadman City were undergoing "assessment".
But it was not from Professor Malcolm, who was currently in charge of the camp's various production plans. The adjutant of Archon Miriam was standing next to him, and his assistant was holding a notebook and recording everything that happened in front of him.
Mrs. Shui, a new player with the specialty of "Master Tailor", sat on a chair and carefully examined the three pieces of leather that had been preliminarily tanned in her hand.
She looked very carefully, and she had tailoring tools on hand to test the toughness of the leather from time to time, while the three tailors in front of her were uneasy, just like students taking an exam.
The inspection of the finished product did not take long. After a few minutes, Madam Shui raised her head and smiled as she brushed her hair. She said:
"You did a good job. It seems that you have mastered the new crafts I taught you. We can move on to the next stage."
Hearing this comment, the three tailors in front of them breathed a sigh of relief.
They were no longer young and had been tailors in Cadman City for many years. They were supposed to be proud of being craftsmen, but at this time they could not control their own airs in front of Madam Shui.
The man in front of them was a real master tailor. On the first day of arriving at Scarlet Castle, he used his vast professional knowledge to refute their proud works and made them worthless.
Not only that, Madam Shui also personally demonstrated to them how to make higher-level clothes with the same materials.
The competition between craftsmen is always simple and rough, because the craftsmanship and works will not lie.
The gray suit-style work ceremonial suit on Professor Malcolm next to him was made by Madam Shui. Its craftsmanship and design style made the professor who had lived in Port Shardo for many years and was well-informed praise it.
Since the craftsmanship is not as good as others, it is not embarrassing to learn from them.
Especially in Transia, a region with tough folk customs, you have to admit that you are not as good as others, and stand at attention when you are beaten, otherwise you will soon be beaten hard by reality.
"Today we will learn about the improvement and production of half-body inner armor."
Mrs. Shui picked up the leather at hand and took out the previously drawn pattern, greeted the three professional tailors, and then explained to them in detail this "improved" production method.
This is not her original leather making process, but her professionalism as a designer and tailor allows her to easily find the production method of this classical leather armor in another world, and she can take it to the game to teach it to the NPC after a little processing.
Mrs. Shui is teaching the "Molek" leather making technique originated from the modern Middle East. It has an ancient origin, but after countless craftsmen have improved it, it has become a masterpiece in this field. The finished product is several levels higher than the craftsmanship circulated in Transia in terms of beauty and practicality.
This world has only been advanced to the present 1111 years since the BC, which is not comparable to the thousands of years of history accumulated in the world of small players.
In fact, it is not just leather making and tailoring. The Broken Blade Master and the Hundred Forging Horse can get the blacksmith leader in the camp and bring many apprentices. It is also due to the accumulation of craftsmanship brought by this history.
The wide variety of forging techniques and the use of special methods to remove impurities in the forging process are enough to be called "secret arts", and the blacksmiths in the camp have been convinced. There are crafts on this continent that can rival these "other world techniques", but they are often in the hands of special people.
For example, the dwarves' forging skills are the best in the continent, and the quality and craftsmanship of their finished products are not inferior to those of other world techniques.
For example, the elves' leatherworkers also have a very powerful leather making secret, but the problem is that these groups with special techniques will not easily pass on their own technology.
Just as the leader Da Ge complained when learning alchemy, this medieval world is still in a state of "technological blockade" and "self-cherishing", and there is no channel for various academics to communicate with each other.
The "NPCs" in the eyes of players rarely meet masters who have skills and are willing to teach them. For example, the three tailors in front of them were extremely serious when listening to Mrs. Shui's explanation, and they also wrote down various key points in a small notebook.
This explanation and teaching did not last long. Mrs. Shui's "course" was divided into six classes. On the one hand, she was a combat professional player, and there were friends waiting to go out and play together.
On the other hand, Mrs. Shui, who is a master in the industry, knew very well that talking too much at a time was not conducive to learning. After she finished speaking, she answered a few questions of her "students" and announced the end of today's teaching.
When she stood up and moved her exaggerated body, Professor Malcolm also stepped forward in time and said to Mrs. Shui in a gentle tone:
"Thank you for your help to the craftsmen in the camp, Master Shui, this is your teaching allowance."
His assistant handed over a small purse.
Mrs. Shui did not refuse and took it with a smile.
While other players were still struggling to make money by completing tasks, Mrs. Shui had already started to get money from NPCs. Before, Archon Miriam invited her to teach tailors, and it was agreed that she would give 50 gold coins for each class, and this was promoted in the form of manufacturing tasks. Mrs. Shui naturally regarded it as a reward she deserved.
But this was not over yet, Professor Malcolm said:
"I have had discussions with Archon Miriam. We feel that we should order special ceremonial uniforms for the administrators in the territory to distinguish them from the civilians. This is an attempt. Perhaps in the future, according to the responsibilities of the territory, Depending on the work, more ceremonial clothes will be produced.
The Archon hopes that you will take the lead in completing the design and production of new ceremonial uniforms.
Of course, we will give you the compensation you deserve. "
"Ding"
The computing orb on Mrs. Shui's wrist rang, indicating another new manufacturing task:
[Manufacturing Task·‘New City, New Weather’ has been triggered!
Mission objective: The Archon of Scarlet Castle and her lieutenant hope that you can use your outstanding professional knowledge to design administrator's overalls for the Scarlet Castle, which is in desperate need of revitalization.
You can complete this quest alone, or guide your three current apprentices in completing it.
Basic mission reward: 300 gold coins.
Advanced mission rewards: Additional rewards will be given depending on whether your finished product can be approved by His Excellency Count Cadman.
Mission time limit: 72 hours. 】
"Didn't other people complain on the forum that it's difficult to earn gold coins in this game? Why have I already earned nearly 500 gold coins in just three days after entering the game? Is this the way other people play the game is wrong? "
Mrs. Shui accepted the task and complained a little in her heart.
She chatted with the knowledgeable Professor Malcolm for a few words, and after collecting various elements required for the design, Mrs. Water, who was in a good mood, hummed a song and left the tent holding her thorn staff.
The young apprentices of the NPC tailors who were busy around them all stopped their work and paid tribute to the tailor master with a monster figure.
Mrs. Shui waved her hand to indicate that these hard-working children did not need to be so polite, and also stepped forward to correct the incorrect techniques of several apprentices when tanning leather.
After doing all this, she hummed a song and left. Her four companions were already waiting for her not far away.
"Now, all my salary for today will be handed over to the team accountant."
Mrs. Shui smiled and threw the money bag to Sister Pomegranate, who took it with a blank expression. Mrs. Shui's gaming career in the past few days has completely subverted Sister Pomegranate's perception of "Real Alien World".
If other players were playing in normal mode, then the lady in front of them was definitely playing in the VIP channel.
As soon as she entered the game and passed the professional skills assessment, she was personally summoned by the territorial governor, and was then given the professional task of teaching apprentices. She could receive wages in return without spending a penny. The most buggy thing was that Mrs. Shui was not in the administrative profession. Next, the Scarlet Archon specially appointed two female witch hunter veterans who are proficient in covert operations as bodyguards for "personal protection."
The reason given is also very simple.
Lady Water, a rare master tailor, is an "important asset" of Scarlet Castle. Neither she nor Lord Murphy can allow such a master of manufacturing to encounter danger during his adventure.
This treatment.
Just tell me who is not jealous after seeing it?
Obviously everyone is playing the game together, so why is your starting point already higher than the end point that we old players have struggled to reach now!
"That's not fair!"
Sitting on the edge of the carriage, little Ashina chewed a fruit-flavored lollipop and complained:
"It's okay for you to be raised as a noble lady by your rich husband in reality. How come there are NPCs actively raising you in the game? You big-breasted seductress."
"Maybe it's because I can make clothes and I'm kind-hearted?"
Mrs. Shui laughed, bent down and poked Xiaowei Ming's face, then put her hands on her hips and asked:
"So, my dears, where are we going to adventure today? I have to log off early today. In addition to making dinner for my husband and baby, I also need to spend some time collecting costume designs that fit the background of the game here.
I just accepted a task to design ceremonial clothes for the officials of the territory. The basic reward alone is 300 gold coins.
Although I don’t know what the advanced rewards are, I am rarely full of motivation. "
She looked back at the busy people in the camp behind her and said:
“I started to like this virtual world. The people here are very simple and eager to learn. They respect skills and pursue knowledge. The most important thing is that they are made very real.
I always feel like I'm in a real other world.
In a land waiting for recovery, I will impart my knowledge to more people in need.
Wow, this feels really good.
It’s like going back to when I was still working. If I hadn’t met my husband, I might be a professor in the design department now, right? Alas, even though I have not worked for many years, I still have a heart for teaching and educating people.
But speaking of it, I am really not an expert in leather making. Helping them improve the production of leather armor is the limit.
If you want to achieve a real breakthrough at the technological level, you have to find professionals.
I think I still have the contact information of several colleagues.”
"What? Are you going to drag people into the trap too?"
Lumina, who was wiping her favorite musical instrument on the carriage, grinned and said:
"Who was full of doubts about this game before? They also said that we dragged you into the pit of fire. In the end, you yourself started to enjoy your career as a master in the game."
"That is."
Mrs. Shui didn't care about her companions' teasing.
She climbed onto the carriage and sat next to Ashina. As the carriage started, she sighed and said:
"Although I am very satisfied with my life. I have a husband who loves me and a pair of lovely babies, but the knowledge I learned in the first half of my life is obviously not useful in the housewife profession. I don't care about that. The knowledge has been stored in my mind, but now I have the opportunity to teach it to those who need it.
Even if it’s just a group of NPCs
Even if it's just a playtest, it's nice to relive the past, and they have a lot of stuff here that I'm really interested in.
For example, the unique aesthetic style of the vampires, and the exotic customs formed by the unique culture of the Kingdom of Nordtof. These are different from the designs on earth. I find it hard to believe how the development team created such a variety of aesthetics. feature.
Rather than borrowing and reorganizing, they seemed to have designed a complete set of social humanities and customs from scratch.
Frankly speaking, I don’t think this is possible through pure technological means.”
At this point, she paused.
Lanhua, who was driving in front, grinned and said to Mrs. Shui in a private chat:
"So, what exactly are you trying to say?"
Mrs. Shui glanced at Orchid, and she also replied privately:
“Character modeling can be realistic, game play can be constantly updated, and even the language system can be produced through special methods, but details such as folk culture and social humanities cannot be completely based on virtuality.
No matter how advanced their technology is, they cannot do this.
This is equivalent to creating a world from scratch, and no one can do it.
Because we humans cannot imagine colors we have never seen before, it is naturally impossible to create a different world that has never existed out of thin air.
So, Orchid, do you think there is a possibility?
I mean, are we really in a completely real alternate world now? "
"clever!"
Orchid shrugged and said privately:
"But I can return to reality when I close my eyes, and there is also a player interface, a mission system, and even a gamified upgrade system."
"You have overlooked a very important point. Your thinking has entered a misunderstanding. Does what you see must be true? You must know that the current mission system is based on the calculation orb.
I specifically asked Lumina that they didn’t have any of this when their first testers came into the game.
I guess you were deceived."
A glimmer of wisdom flashed through Mrs. Shui's big eyes under her gentle smile. She stroked the calculation orb on her wrist and replied to Orchid's private message:
"I suspect this is a conspiracy. Someone has specially made up a virtual world for us! Of course, it is also possible that their technical level is really high, so high that the fake can be confused with the real one."
"Yes, we currently lack all kinds of evidence, so we can only speculate."
Orchid sighed and said:
"Has Sister Cement looked for you offline? She warned me yesterday to stay away from this thing."
"I found it."
Mrs. Shui snorted and said:
"But I'm too lazy to pay attention to her. She just shows off her wisdom every day. It's boring to death. If my daughter grows up like her in the future, I will really collapse. I also heard that she found someone in the group to help her find out the truth. That guy is hiding in the forum now.
But to be honest, this game is really good for entertainment, so you don’t plan to AFK it, right? "
"I'm leaving, what will happen to the three of them?"
Orchid replied helplessly:
"Especially Xiao Weiming, you also know her situation. It is impossible for her to leave here. Therefore, I suggest that the two of us just pretend that we have discovered nothing and bury our suspicions in our hearts until more evidence comes out, okay? ?”
"Can."
Mrs. Shui brushed her hair and said to Lanhua:
"But you have to find something for me."
"What?"
"dictionary!
This is the dictionary used by children in this world to learn writing. I want to take some time to learn the writing here. I guess if we can understand the history of this world without relying on arithmetic orbs, we can communicate with the indigenous people of this world. , we will surely find more evidence we need. "
——
"Oh, letting smart people into the game is indeed risky."
In the Blood Vulture Corridor, Murphy, who had just finished swordfighting with the "Evil Master", spied the complete conversation between Mrs. Water and Lan Huahua from the core orb, which made him realize that these two smart ladies had begun to doubt the "Reality" The authenticity of "Alien World".
He could kick them offline now and block their access permanently.
But Murphy ultimately did not do so.
"I can't hide it."
He stretched out his hand to hold the necessary evil floating beside him, played a swordplay in the darkness of the corridor, and whispered to himself:
"One day, all the truth will be revealed. I have never doubted the wisdom of my compatriots in this regard, let alone such elite human women. However, discovering the truth is one thing, and understanding the facts is another.
Concealment is just a means, cooperation can lead to win-win results.
I am also looking forward to the reaction of these super intelligences after learning the truth. Will they panic and escape from the real world?
Or will you happily embark on a real, unique adventure?
Well, I'm looking forward to it.
Before discovering the truth and making a decision, lend me your strength and wisdom! I need you, this land needs you, and the world needs you. "
