Chateau had a sincere tone and was a senior arcanist. Even though Charles Harlan still had doubts in his heart, he would not show it to his face. Instead, he followed Chateau's words and asked him about the details of the foundry:

　　 "Then I don't know how many demon killing charms the Tower of Time can provide before the end of June? What is the yield rate? How much does the foundry cost?"

　　 For this question, Xia Duo did not directly answer, but said: "Lord Harlan does not have to doubt the strength of the Tower of Time, you can produce as many times as you need the Tower of Time!"

　　 Of course, there are elements of swollen face and fat, but Xia Duo also has his own considerations.

　　 Based on his past understanding of Haranling, even if the other party sells assets to raise funds, but the Demon Slayer Talisman needs to use at least second-class high-grade mithril, which is not something that the other party can buy casually.

　　 After all, the Sevinton Council has only opened up the standard mithril refining technology, but there is no high-grade mithril.

　　Of course, as a war order, Danzo or the elves will definitely provide some high-quality mithril for Netheril, but there are so many Netheril, why should we give priority to Lord Haran?

　　 If Lord Haran really has any great backing, then there is no need to fall to the point where it is desperate to sell assets!

　　 In addition, although Lord Haran has chosen to throw all his bets, it is unlikely that he will put all the bets on the Tower of Time.

　　 In other words, the OEM orders that the other party can provide are actually relatively limited, and Xia Duo also anticipated this.

　　...

　　 On the other side, Charles Harlan was overjoyed when he heard Chateau said that there could be as many OEMs as possible, but then he became more suspicious.

　　 This is really an exaggeration. Looking at the entire Netheril, there are only about twenty companies with this kind of strength.

　　 Except for the Wizard Tower organization where the Great Arcanist is located, other small organizations are basically unlikely.

　　 And the Tower of Time? Charles remembers clearly that it was only in the past few years that his reputation suddenly increased, and the key element was Lord Chateau himself!

　　 "His wife is a student of the princess, does she have to take the path of Giles Tower, or through his teacher, through some channels of the Austrian French Federation?"

　　 Charles seriously thought about the various possibilities that existed in this. If it was in normal times, Lord Chateau said that, he was willing to hand over all the OEM orders to the other party.

　　 After all, there is a contractual guarantee. As long as the amount of breach of contract compensation is agreed in advance, he will never lose.

　　 But now, in case the delivery date is delayed, the trouble will be big, and it doesn't make any sense to him to lose money.

　　 Based on the risk considerations, after careful consideration, Charles Harlan gave a more conservative number: "100 pieces of the talisman of the slaughter, is such a foundry order for Lord Chateau willing to accept it?"

　　 Hearing such a number, Xia Duo couldn't help laughing. He thought how much it could be! I didn't expect it to be so!

　　 is only 100 pieces. Even if all of these are done by himself, he can do them all in one month. If you include the magic mechanics of the Tower of Time, there is no problem with doubling this number.

　　 Of course, if you change to another senior arcanist or archmage, unless you are skilled in making magic items, it is unlikely to be completed on time.

　　 Xia Duo has not dealt with Lord Charles before, and now the two sides are still in the stage of trust establishment, and the other party can provide this amount of orders is actually quite good.

　　 "100 pieces of course will be accepted, as for the foundry fee and yield -"

　　 Speaking of this, Xia Duo paused on purpose, and then reported two figures that had been considered for a long time: "The OEM fee is calculated at 1,000 gold coins per piece, and the yield rate is 70%!"

　　 This price is slightly lower than the labor cost of the general high-end amulet on the market. A magic amulet starts at least 2000 in the market, and the premium inside is quite high.

　　 The high-level amulet, that is, the tiny magic item that contains 5 or more protective spells, has a starting price of at least 5,000 gold coins.

　　 Of course, the cost is also different. The low-level amulet or the simple amulet, the cost price is sometimes pitiful, it may just be the labor cost of the caster, just like the simple spiritual amulet given to Evans by Chateau before.

　　The material is a gold coin. It's just that he, a senior arcanist, can cast a spell to have an extra premium. In fact, a high-level wizard can also make such a simple talisman, but the prices of the two are obviously different.

　　 As for the advanced amulet, if it is a magic constant type, it can only be made by the archmage or senior arcanist. The material cost is basically negligible, but the constant spell itself is a high threshold and extremely energy-intensive work.

　　 How many archmages or senior arcanists are willing to work hard like this? The price is conceivable. Generally, only a few turnovers will be made when there is no money on hand.

And if it’s a Mithril component type, the production threshold is low enough that a high-level wizard can make it, but the material cost of a high-level amulet is at least 1,000 gold coins, and the yield must be considered. In the past, it was impossible to refine Mithril. , The cost of materials should basically be doubled.

　　 As for the labor cost of the caster, it is calculated on an individual basis. The asking price may be extremely high or it may be low, but in the end it is not less than 1,000 gold coins. This is already the most basic tacit understanding between the casters.

　　 Xia Duo charges 1,000 gold coins per piece of foundry fees, which is completely within the normal range in the eyes of ordinary people, and it is quite sincere.

However, for Xia Duo and the Tower of Time, the OEM fee of 1,000 gold coins will be broken down into the wages of magic mechanics of different levels. In fact, the labor costs of low-level mages are used to replace the labor of high-level mages. fee. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

　　 The high-level mage does less work and takes less money, which is in line with general intuition.

These 1000 gold coins, in fact, Xia Duo has to pay the tower of time mage, at most 5,600, even if he does it all by himself, he will also break down the process and make the last step by himself, instead of alone. All inclusive from start to finish.

　　 As for the yield rate of 70%, it is even more tricky.

When the Tower of Time’s Magic Engineering Department mass-produces communication artifacts, the initial production can achieve a pass rate of 60%. Now even if it is producing high-level amulet, the pass rate will not be bad if there is overproduction experience. too much.

　　 is actually a high-level mage who does the last step. Because they have no mass production experience, they may be a little uncomfortable at the beginning, but as long as they do a few more, standardization can make them become skilled workers as quickly as possible!

　　 Not to mention Xia Duo's bottom, the scrapped Mithril material can be completely re-refined, said to be a 70% yield, in fact, it can be regarded as 100%.

　　 That 30% of the materials with a market price of more than 40,000 are considered as additional OEM fees.

　　 This single 100 pieces of Demon Slayer Talisman was OEM, and the Tower of Time could almost make a small one hundred thousand. Perhaps Lord Harlan sold these to Danzo for less than one hundred thousand.

　　 What's more, the balance payment has to be temporarily deducted, waiting for the war to stabilize before it can be issued.

　　 Foundry is indeed a good business that makes a profit without losing money!

　　 Even if Xia Duo repeatedly refines the Mithril in the 30% of the materials, turns it into first-class products, and sells them into fine-quality magic items, the profit will be even higher.
