Chapter 739 Extraordinary Temptation

"With exercise, the speed of progress is about two to three times that of natural exercise, and it is easier to break through the bottleneck.

For you, you may be able to reach the threshold of the extraordinary knight within five years. If there is another letter of recommendation... becoming an extraordinary knight is not a dream.

The production will be expanded. Now we can find customers in a small range and use it ourselves.

The cost... is very low compared to its effect. According to the expected selling price, if one a day, it will cost about five gold coins a month."

Five gold coins are a family's income for half a year, but for such an extraordinary item, the price is indeed very low.

At least Richard thought it was too low. He pointed out directly: "Your Excellency the Earl, perhaps this price will be generally praised after large-scale sales, but now... it will only make your efforts seem very cheap.

All products are not the cheaper the better. Now... fifty gold coins, a hundred gold coins or even more gold coins a month are considered normal market prices."

Things are precious because they are rare. Blindly reducing prices will only lower the taste.

If necessary, Richard even suggested adding some ingredients that do not affect the efficacy of the drug, and then changing the packaging and subdividing it into different price levels.

Perhaps, it is acceptable to appropriately reduce the efficacy of the drug.

This is the normal practice of businessmen. They always rack their brains to squeeze every penny of profit.

Lister said that this idea was great, so he did not hesitate to add a burden to Richard: "This matter is handed over to you. Sell it, preferably overseas. I think they will be happy to offer a more competitive price."

Richard understood immediately that this was to make a fortune quietly, but it was right to think about it. If something that has not been mass-produced directly appears in the domestic market, it may cause some trouble.

You can make money in the same way, or even make more money, so why take risks?

"Don't worry, Earl, we already have a fixed partner, and it is easy to sell the drug." Richard seemed confident.

"When necessary, Sir Dust can help with transportation." Lister did not forget another general under his command.

Dust nodded to Richard after hearing this. The two knew each other and now they are also serving Lister.

But he finally asked Lister the most concerned question.

As an old aristocratic family, Dust obviously cares more about force than Richard.

So, he raised his hand and asked: "Mr. Earl, please allow me to ask once, if we reach the limit of mortals, do we have a chance to become extraordinary knights?"

If Lister had not said before that he would give them a letter of recommendation and there is a possibility of becoming extraordinary knights, he would not ask directly like this.

But this question is indeed very eye-catching.

In response, Lister chose to reply affirmatively: "Of course there is a chance. In addition to divine grace, the Extraordinary Research Institute is also studying extraordinary potions that break the limits of the human body. No matter which way, I am sure to get some places.

But... you have to show that you are worth my precious place for you, do you understand?"

Although this answer is a bit naked, it is not a problem for Dust and others.

Compared with no opportunity, difficulties are nothing.

Moreover, the exchange of interests is one of the foundations of maintaining the aristocratic system.

Now it's just that there is more extraordinary power.

The Jide family has existed since the founding of the Holy Cross Kingdom, and the viscount is not a very low title. They have been passed down from generation to generation and have accumulated enough experience.

They are old-fashioned, but they are also proficient in the rules of the game for nobles.

Dust immediately stood up and said very seriously: "My Lord, I understand what you said. There is no good thing in the world that can be obtained without hard work. I will ask you to take the initiative to give me a letter of recommendation, and then I will continue to serve you as an extraordinary knight."

The nobles are vassals of the emperor.

But the nobles have a certain degree of autonomy, and they can choose the objects of service.

This is the game rule of the nobles. It looks very pedantic and old-fashioned, but it maintains the stability of the social class very well.

The times may have changed, and the nobles will also make changes and change the rules of the game.

But in essence, it is just a change of name and a change of superficial rules.

There is no change in essence.

Whether it is a slave state, a feudal monarchy, a free system or even various strange systems of fantasy.

For the nobles, they just changed their names, capitalists, entrepreneurs, parliamentarians or representatives.

There is no difference. If you look through the legal provisions carefully, you will find that behind the cumbersome constraints, there is a naked cruel reality.

Whoever benefits is a noble.

On this point, Duster reacts faster than Richard and has a deeper understanding.

The latter still needs to study hard and accumulate experience for his offspring.

Liszt understood that there is actually a shortcut from civilians to nobles, that is, through the most primitive means-violence.

By plundering land, power and knowledge from other nobles, you can naturally accumulate.

Therefore, the Augusta family has never lacked these experiences and education.

He was able to taste the deep meaning behind Dust's words, so he smiled and replied: "I'm waiting to see your performance."

After leaving Liszt, the noble heirs chatted politely with each other for a few words, and then separated.

Seeing the opportunity coming, they must seize it.

Just as Dust was about to leave, Richard suddenly called him.

"Sir Dust, I would like to invite you to dinner." Richard knew that his invitation was a bit abrupt, so he explained: "The Earl asked us to cooperate well, I think we should talk first."

Dust looked back at him and saw that the son of the newly promoted noble was smiling, so he nodded: "It's a great honor, Sir."

Seriously speaking, Richard is a new noble. Although his family title is lower, he is definitely a direct descendant of the Emperor of Daxia, and he is also a northerner, which is another plus.

Dust is a remnant of the old era. Although he has retained his strength, he is not valued by the nobles.

In the past, the two families did not have much friendship. It can even be said that they belonged to different factions.

But nothing is absolute. The previous generation may not have friendship, but the next generation may not.

The past identity will gradually fade, and everyone is a noble of the empire after all.

Maybe they will gradually become familiar with each other in the future, and even marry.

For example, now, the heirs of the two families have intersected because of something, maybe this is a perfect start.

Richard used to look down on these surrendered nobles, this is the arrogance of the victor, he thinks his family will sooner or later surpass these remnants of the old times.

But after contacting, he felt that Dust had something, so he took the initiative to contact.

It is not shameful to correct mistakes when you know them.
