Chapter 443: Overtaken!

A metal disc, two spike-shaped pointers, twelve points, evenly divided in the middle, the two pointers kept moving, the short one moved slowly, the long one moved quickly.

There was nothing on the dial, but one could feel the elemental fluctuations leaked from the operation of the alchemy magic circle inside.

The corners of Witt's mouth twitched.

Isn't this a watch for timing!

Not long ago, he was preparing to make one, and now a dragon put the finished product in front of him.

Of course, it may have other uses, but the possibility is very small.

"This is..."

"Timer, used to measure time!"

"..."

Witt was silent, and didn't know what to say for a while.

This can be preempted by a dragon!

Seeing that Witt didn't say anything, Candice thought he was just thinking about the principle of the timer, so she took the initiative to explain: "In the past, when I was conducting alchemical experiments, I always couldn't feel the passage of time.

Every time I finished the experiment, I only had a rather vague guess about the time, and only after asking Scott could I know how long it had passed.

It was nothing, after all, I had gotten used to it for so many years.

However, in alchemical experiments, sometimes you need to strictly control the time. If you keep staring at it, it will not only be tiring, but also not particularly accurate.

I wondered if I could make an alchemical item that shows the progress of time.

What is time?

It's too profound for me to understand. I only know that the sunset and sunrise are called a day!

So, how long is a day?

I thought of counting regularly, and then I began to calculate how long a day is in this way.

I even forgot how many times I tried it.

Finally, a number was determined, 86,400, which I counted again and again. Finally, the number that can best show how long a day is.

But this number is a bit large, and it is too complicated to make a counter.

I began to think about how to reduce this number, so I referred to a concept known to dragons, that is, there are twenty-four magic hours in a day!

After calculation, this number can be evenly divided by twenty-four magic hours.

But the number is still too large, so I started to try again, and finally, I found a number that is easiest to remember and understand, sixty!

One magic hour is sixty minutes, and one minute is sixty numbers.

So, how to put these numbers on the timer became the next problem, and then the twelve streets of the sky city gave me inspiration.

The sky city is roughly circular, with twelve main streets evenly distributed. If three points are divided between each street, there will be exactly sixty points.

Finally, this timer is presented. I have tested it for twenty years, and it is still accurate! "

Witt looked at Candice blankly.

He has the common sense of another world left to him by his father, and he has the time rune himself, so he dared to make a table.

But Candice actually developed a timer without these. Compared to alchemy, this guy's brain is the best.

But...

"You didn't study this thing for fifty years!"

Candice shook his head.

"Of course not, I studied it for seventy years. In fact, the finished product was produced fifty years ago, but I used twenty-four points for that finished product.

After testing for thirty years, I always felt something was strange, so I made a twelve-point timer based on the twelve main streets of the Sky City and tested it for another twenty years.

Now that the test is completed, I think my alchemical work is enough to bring the concept of time to the entire Sky City!"

After a pause, Candice looked at Witt.

"The item for cooperation is this timer. As for the way of cooperation, my idea is that each block will select one or more alchemists for cooperation.

I only provide the production method. The profit from the sale needs to be divided into 20% and collected once a year!

Are you interested?"

Witt thought about it and looked at Candice with some doubts: "Are you sure your business can go on?

Let alone, just listening to your explanation, I am confident that I can replicate an identical timer, and other alchemists think it is similar.

In addition, the material of the timer is also a problem.

If you choose good materials, a timer can be used for hundreds of years without any problems. Although the price will definitely be high, it is similar to a one-time deal.

If you choose inferior materials, it can also be used for a hundred or eighty years , the time interval between the second purchase is too long.

If the material is worse, it is a quality problem.

In addition, you also need to consider some channels hidden in the dark. For example, I rejected you openly, but I know the principle of your timer.

I can make it myself and then provide goods to some vendors standing in the gray area.

This channel will inevitably impact your open sales.

Are you sure you have considered these? "

After a pause, Witt continued: "In addition, you run a store yourself, so let me ask you, will you record the cost and selling price of a product in detail?

If you don't record these, then how can you collect the 20% profit?

I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. "

As he said, Witt patted the counter.

"I don't know how many empty coins are inside, I just need to know that there are more and more!"

Hearing this, Candice smiled confidently.

"I have already considered what you said. As long as you agree to cooperate, you will naturally know how I solve these problems. I am not a three-year-old baby dragon, so how could I not consider these things!"

Witte looked at Candice curiously and asked, "Who were you originally planning to work with in Block 6?"

"Antasha, Ilaya, Redeker, and you, I just found Redeke, and you were the second one, even though you were originally the last one.

After all, your store only sells magic circles and potions, not alchemy items. "

Werther nodded, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Okay, I agree, but you can go and try Antasha's place, but you don't have to go to Ilaya's place, she's not here."

Seeing that Witte agreed, Candice had a smile on her face.

"Well, happy working together!

The follow-up thing is that Scott talked to you and there is something that will be sent over after I finish it. At that time, the cooperation will officially begin.

In addition, this timer stays with you.

Whether you make subsequent improvements or changes in appearance, it is your freedom. After all, the aesthetics of dragons and dragons are different. "

With that said, Candice turned to look at Scott.

"Don't you have something to discuss with Werther? I'll go to the other side to discuss business, and you can go there by yourself later."

After saying that, Candice nodded towards Witt, then turned and left.

Chiara, who never spoke, just nodded and followed Candice away...
