“This one? Is it too… simple?” Sui Xiong asked . Looking at the gray-white box, Sui Xiong frowned .
Arcaian said, sighing, “In a month, this one is the most reliable one among the submitted ideas . ”
Sui Xiong gently pressed the box with his tentacles . The box opened, and there was no cold air inside . It was just at a normal temperature . This surprised Sui Xiong a little, so he asked, “Shouldn’t it use a cryogenic refrigeration method?”
“It’s difficult to use a cryogenic refrigeration method on a large scale, and the storage time and storage costs are much higher,” Arcaian answered . At the same time, he took out a delicate silver-white box . “This is a refrigerated box that is used to store high-end foods . It is worth about 500 gold coins . Even people with high incomes are generally only willing to rent one . It can save food for about two days . However, in fact, after a day, the taste of the food will obviously go worse . ”
Sui Xiong nodded . The silver-white box was very delicate, but it had a simple construction . It consisted of the outer shell, the insulation layer, and the ice trays inside . After the food was put in, the food was equivalent to being stored in an ice house, so the food could naturally be preserved for a long time .
“There are also some high-end refrigerated boxes . They use spells to lower the temperature inside the boxes . At the lowest temperature, ice can stay frozen for a long time,” Arcaian said, “but the cost is even higher . The cheapest ones are worth thousands of gold coins . Moreover, magic crystals inside work as an energy source . They need to be replaced regularly . It was a real luxury . Anyway, I have lived for so long, but I only saw it in person recently because of the investigation . ”
Sui Xiong nodded gently . He understood the actual situation of the “refrigeration” technology in this world .
In terms of technology, the level was quite high . As for a promotion, it was sh*t .
“In contrast, this new idea of a preservation box is completely different . It uses spells to sterilize the food, and it can kill all bacteria or fungi that can rot and degrade food . Moreover, it can keep food fresh for a longer period of time without lowering the temperature,” Arcaian said . “I never thought about it . My research can be used in this area!”
This kind of preservation box was invented by an assistant of Arcaian before Arcaian became a god . That mid-level mage was very curious about Arcaian’s research, so he had been learning from Arcaian . However, unlike Arcaian, his main research direction was “how to eliminate bacteria and fungi” and what happened if they were eliminated .
Over the years, he had been quietly studying this and enjoying himself in the research . If Sui Xiong didn’t issue the oracle this time, he might continue to study like that and never consider an actual application .

“Is he a theoretical scholar?” Sui Xiong asked after reading the inventor’s information . He couldn’t help but smile . “Roller . This name is quite familiar . ”
“What’s wrong with this name? It’s very common . Have you heard of any big man who owns the same name?” Arcaian asked curiously .
Sui Xiong shook his head . He couldn’t tell Arcaian that he had read a set of science fiction books when he had been a child, and Roller was the name of the author .
But at this time, he couldn’t help but come up with an idea .
By the way, in this world, there are only fantasy novels, but there are no science fiction novels . Why don’t I write a few science fiction novels?
It was no doubt that Time Travel, the famous bard who never appeared in public, would publish new work .
As a friend of Arcaian, Roller changed his faith and became Arcaian’s believer after Arcaian became a god . As one of the few high-level believers of the God of Medicine, he had been contacted by Arcaian . Arcaian had talked with him about “collecting magical ideas that would improve people’s living standards . ” Roller had thought for a while and had made this preservation box .
After listening to the introduction, Sui Xiong asked wonderingly, “So easy?”
“Almost,” Arcaian said happily . “He has accumulated enough, so it’s natural that he can gain an achievement . He just didn’t think about turning his research results into practical things before . ”
Sui Xiong nodded and then studied the preservation box carefully .
The box didn’t pursue a strong insulation effect, so its production cost was not high . Every time people wanted to save something, they just needed to ask a low-level mage to charge the magic array . After the charge, people could put food inside and activate the magic array; then the process was done . After that, as long as they didn’t open the preservation box, the food could be preserved for ten days to half a month .
Although it was not cheap to ask a low-level mage to cast spells to charge it, it was at least much cheaper than the previous refrigeration box .
However, there was also a problem with this preservation box . Most of the food could be well preserved, but the taste of a very small amount of foods would slightly change after being put in the box . After people took out the food, the taste was almost the same at first bite . However, when people carefully tasted and chewed it, they would feel that the food lacked a sense of delicacy and transformation .
As for this, Roller didn’t know why . Arcaian certainly didn’t know why, either .
There were too few samples available for research . Why would the taste of these foods become less delicate, but other foods wouldn’t change with the same spells in the same environment?
Roller had already taken this problem as one of his own research topics . After completing his current research, he would study this topic carefully .

Sui Xiong also pondered it for a long time, and he didn’t understand where the problem lay . However, he was sure that with this small flaw, this invention could still be regarded as an important achievement .
Not only that, but Roller also proposed a special spell model . It could be used to eliminate various bacteria, fungi, and any other living things in food without any difference .
This spell sounded very ferocious, but in fact, it had a narrow range of applications . It could only be used to help preserve food . After Roller’s experiment, Roller proved that after using this spell, as long as the seal was confirmed and the air was isolated, the storage time of the food could be greatly prolonged .
His preservation box was actually designed based on this spell . The main difficulty was not the casting, but the sealing .
It had really bothered him for a while . Therefore, it had taken him more than half a month to make a material object because he couldn’t find a proper sealing method . In the end, after discussing with a few food businessmen, he had found a better idea and had completed the design and manufacture of the preservation box .
The next day, Sui Xiong personally met Roller . After understanding the cause and effect of the entire invention in detail, Sui Xiong greatly praised Roller . Sui Xiong said that he would specifically calculate the legendary road for him, and would escort him when he was going to break into the Legendary Realm .
Of course, Roller was very happy . However, at the same time, he didn’t forget to emphasize the help of those businessmen and their credit for the entire invention . Therefore, those businessmen were fortunate enough to see the supreme Void Mask, the great designer, and builder of Void City .
“I have already given Roller what he wants . What do you want?” Sui Xiong asked with interest .
The businessmen looked at each other . After a while, a brave one answered, “Your Majesty, you have given us what we want . ”
“What?” Sui Xiong was stunned . After thinking carefully for a long time, he was sure that he had never seen those people before, let alone gave them something .
“In the Republic of Northwest, we businessmen can do business at ease . We don’t need to worry that some evil forces will seize our properties, and we don’t need to worry that some aristocrats will have jealous eyes . This is what we have been pursuing . You have given us a place to live, so we always want to do something to repay you . We are very happy that we can make some contributions to you,” the businessman said, laughing . “Really, this is enough . ”
Sui Xiong was stunned . He pondered for a long time and finally laughed .
“I never thought that what I did could get such a high evaluation,” Sui Xiong said . “In fact, I just do what I want to do, building a satisfactory social order that I love . I am very happy that you approve of it . ”
Then the atmosphere became harmonious and friendly . Finally, Sui Xiong invited those businessmen to have dinner in his God’s Kingdom . He also gave every one of them a bottle of specially-made wine . The taste was naturally good . The most important thing was that this wine had the effect of life extension .
In fact, it was invented based on the potion that could prolong one’s lifespan . The wine was designed for Kalisa Riley by Sui Xiong .
The First Beauty on the East Coast was now over 50 years old, but she was still young and beautiful . She was no different from a 22-year-old girl . Her own strength was not very powerful, and the key to maintaining youth and beauty was this amazing divine wine .
As for her own effort, well, it also made some contributions .
The businessmen liked this wine very much . When they left, they were really thankful . Sui Xiong was also very happy . In the past few years, his mood had never been as good as it was now .
A few days later, Roller was called out from the lab . He built a workshop with those businessmen to produce preservation boxes . The spell model he designed was also widely spread . Any interested mages could learn this model after paying a little tuition fee through the Association of Mages or some other organizations .
As for whether they could master this spell smoothly and whether they could cast it well after mastering it, that was their own business .
Seventy percent of the tuition fees would be possessed by the organizations that preserved and taught the spell model, and the remaining thirty percent was possessed by Roller . This was also the practice . The inventors of every practical spell, as long as they were willing to spread their spells, would get a lot of wealth . They could then continue to research and get new results . It was a virtuous circle .
“The author can only take 30% . Really stingy!” Sui Xiong muttered . After learning about that, he was somewhat dissatisfied . “I used to draw comics for others, and I can get half of the subscription incomes . ”
Therefore, he ran to negotiate with Ymirjar Le-Peyroux, the God of Spellcaster . Eventually, he changed the proportion .
Roller was the first mage to benefit from the new proportion, so this new proportion was called the Roller Proportion .
