Chapter 80 (1/2)

If you simply sell these three bottles of new moon wine, you can only earn 30000 gold coins, but compared with the actual value, the gimmick of new moon wine is more important.

After all, this is a rare wine from the elves. Most nobles can't even buy it!

Its real value lies in rarity!

The way Donne said is very simple, that is to maximize the attraction of new moon wine to the nobility. One bottle sold at the auction is to improve the popularity of the chamber of Commerce, the other bottle is to win over the nobility and enter their circle, and the third bottle is placed in the shop as a long-term attraction, which can continuously bring customers to the shop.

In a simple way, the nobles' psychology of comparison is made full use of. What else can Fiona say in addition to admiration and worship?

”But what if the nobles, even the Lord of Bain, have to buy it?”

Fiona raised another sharp question.

Donne gave her a white look: ”I said I couldn't sell it casually. I didn't say I couldn't sell it.”

”But we only have three bottles...”

”Who said three bottles?”

Donne turned his hand and put a dozen new moon wine on the table with a bang. Fiona widened her eyes and couldn't speak.

”Tell them that our shop sells a bottle of new moon wine every month, mainly by auction. At that time, all the nobles of Bain will be invited to participate in the auction, and the one with the highest price will win.”

Donne smiled very insidiously: ”I believe that providing a bottle of ELF family new moon wine every month is enough to make our Datang chamber of Commerce famous in Beiyin.”

”Absolutely enough!”

Fiona said firmly: ”up to now, no chamber of Commerce has been able to provide the new moon wine of the elves! These new moon wine can make us develop stably in Beiyin city for at least one year. Even if we can't continue to provide new moon wine after one year, we have stood firm.”

At this time, Donne said, ”in addition to standing firm, I have to give the chamber of Commerce an important task.”

”Please.”

”People, we in Ellington need a large population, that is, labor. Of course, it would be better if we could attract apocalypses such as mages or soldiers.”

Donne painted Fiona a huge and magnificent future development plan, but if this development plan is to become a reality, it needs a lot of human and material resources.

”While Beiyin develops, the chamber of commerce must publicize the situation of Ellington and attract those bottom personnel to Ellington. Only when there is enough labor force can our development be accelerated.”

”I see.”

Donne sighed. There are still too few people available at Ellington, otherwise many things can go hand in hand and develop together, but now he has to slow down and do the same.

At this time, he suddenly thought of something and asked, ”by the way, have they prepared leaflets?”

The new store opened. In this world without TV network, Donne really couldn't think of any other means of publicity except handing out leaflets.

Fiona was stunned: ”leaflets? What's that?”

Donne was desperate. ”Are you serious?”

”Lord, are you kidding me? Seriously, it's not funny at all.”

Well, in a world without electronic media, there is no print media. How simple is the civilian life in this world!

Donne frowned and said, ”let Hilton and Thomas get ready today and start tomorrow. I'll prepare something for them.”

After writing down Donne's order, Fiona hurried away with the new moon wine. She believed Hilton and Thomas could do it well.

Seeing Fiona leave, Donne immediately drilled back into the room.

To mass produce leaflets, we must first solve two problems: a large number of cheap and durable paper and a printing press.

The printing press involves the problem of ink - well, let alone color printing, the problem of black-and-white printing ink is easy to solve, but how to obtain a large number of high-quality and cheap paper is still a big problem.

”Time is tight, so we can only get together first.”

Prandar's current paper is made of plant leaves, and the cost is very high, so most people still use animal skin paper, and only nobles can afford white paper.

But what Donne has to do now is get the printing press out first.

In fact, the principle of the printing press is not difficult. The difficulty lies in the controllable programming chip, but Donne does not need to realize such complex functions, so as long as the simplest movable type printing can meet his requirements.

Coincidentally, the current common Rune language in prandal is similar to the Chinese language, which is ideographic rather than Pinyin. Therefore, the printing function can be realized very quickly by sorting out the commonly used words.

Then use magic to realize the functions of automatic paper feeding, automatic cutting and automatic printing. A printing machine is barely formed.

After Dunn pondered for a few hours, a printing machine similar to a large printer came out. It looked very ugly, but after his trial, he was very satisfied.
