Later, Claire tricked Shane into opening another hotel. However, it was very likely that the business was a loss-making business in the previous few years. Although the people of Nafu City were gradually getting richer, most of them would still be reluctant to part with high consumption if they were suddenly asked to do so.

Nafu City is currently mainly developing the secondary industry, that is, the metallurgical city. As for the service industry, it is still a little early, but it still has to be there. People from other places cannot come to Nafu City to discuss business, and they can't even find places to consume. As for the money Shane lost, I would subsidize him again if I had the opportunity.

In the end, before Shane left, he left a small person in charge who was in charge of the pub and hotel.

A week or two passed like this, and the establishment of the hotel and tavern in the West District was almost completed. There was also a slight flow of people in the tavern, but not a lot.

The Trade Points accumulated by Claire was also used to become friends with that Wizard World Martin. He also spent two points of Trade Points and one point of Trade Points submitted a friend application to the first transaction object: the trader who sold Great Strength Pill, and the other point Trade Points used to submit a friend application to the little girl who sold himself Black Seed.

There are two Trade Points left at the end, and when there were five Trade Points before, there was no upgrade prompt from the system. It should be that the further you go, the more Trade Points you need to upgrade.

So Claire used another Trade Points to start the transaction...

The next day, Claire found Academy of Sciences where Isaac was located.

As soon as he entered, he saw Isaac who was very excited and rushed out. He stopped after seeing clearly that the person in front of him was Claire.

Claire asked first, "Where are you going?"

Isaac said excitedly, "My airship is finally ready, I'm going to test it out!"

"Wait a minute!" Claire stretched out his hand to stop him, "Don't worry, I'll show you something first, and then you can leave after you finish it."

Isaac looked over doubtfully, "What is it?"

Claire With a touch of Spatial Ring, a half-human-sized pink crystal clear crystal appeared between the two of them. It also exuded a strange wave that seemed to be able to affect people's minds.

Isaac looked at Claire and asked, "Can I touch it?"

"It's okay, I tried it and it's not dangerous."

Isaac tapped on it with his fingers for a while, then closed his eyes and felt the fluctuations on it, and finally looked at Claire with a puzzled look on his face.

"Can you show me what this thing is? I don't see anything special about it?"

"Get out of the way." Claire said softly, then slightly bent his middle finger and suddenly flicked it onto the pink crystal.

"Poof!"

The crystal that was half a person tall suddenly became fragmented and scattered to the ground. It was very beautiful for a while.

"Ah? This just proves that he is relatively fragile. What's so special about it?" Isaac still doesn't understand what Claire is doing. There are many magic materials that are more fragile than this. Some materials will be broken directly as long as the breath comes into contact, so this is nothing special.

"Don't worry, keep reading." Claire said, taking out a second-level Monster Core from his arms and throwing it into the pile of pink crystals.

When the crystal core came into contact with the crystal pile, the magic power inside seemed to be pulled away by something in an instant, and all of it poured into the crystal pile. However, the broken crystal pile grew rapidly and returned to its original height of half a person. If there were not some scattered pink crystals on the ground, Isaac suspected that it had not been broken at all.

"What's going on?" Isaac asked in surprise.

"Feel it carefully..." Claire pointed at the restored crystal.

Isaac closed his eyes and felt it with his heart. After a few seconds, he opened it suddenly and said, "It seems to have had a slight impact on me. It's not negative. It seems to have amplified some of my emotions. I was very excited about the airship test flight just now, and I became even more excited after being affected by it."

"Yes." Claire nodded, "If you use higher quality magic power, its impact will be greater. And its characteristics are more than that. No matter how it is smashed, as long as you find the largest piece and inject magic power into it, it can be restored to its original shape."

Isaac asked, "Where are the other fragments?"

Claire shook his head slightly, "No, only the largest piece can be restored to its original state. Isn't it interesting?"

This is a very strange phenomenon. If there is any principle behind it that can be understood, does it mean that the Magic Ore that was mined out before can also be restored in this way? In this way, one's own mineral resources will not be exhausted.

"It's indeed interesting. But..." Isaac changed the topic, "But I'm going to do a test flight now! I can't wait any longer. You have to bring this matter to me now. Let's study this thing after I finish the test flight, okay?"

Isaac was impatient. After working on it for several weeks, he finally figured out his ideal. At this time, let alone Claire, even his father could not stop him.

After hearing what Isaac said, Claire couldn't help but smile, and replied, "Go ahead, there's no rush, we'll talk about it after you finish."

"Understood, understood!" Isaac spoke quickly, then waved his hand and the ten mages behind him all used Levitation Spell to carry a lot of things out.

"By the way, there is a branch mountain range of the Sunset Mountains over there. Don't drift over there, there are quite a few Flying Magical Beast there." Claire reminded.

"Understood!" Isaac quickly followed the pace of the ten mages. I don't know if he listened to Claire's words.

After walking for most of the way, Isaac remembered something and turned around and asked, "Would you like to come with me to see it? This is the first test flight! There won't be such exciting scenes in the future!"

Claire shook his head. He had been on a lot of planes in his previous life. Airships, similar to hot air balloons, were not as exciting to him as the first time he used Flying Spell.

"I'm not going." Claire took out a book from his arms and shook it, "I'm going to give lectures to the children in school."

After everything was done, Claire felt completely at ease. Only then did he remember that he still had the position of school principal, and then he put together the Grimm's fairy tales, Andersen's fairy tales and some Chinese fables from his previous life. When he had nothing to do, he went to tell stories to the children in the school.

"Well, you will lose an important moment to witness history." Isaac shrugged, and then followed the mages and continued to rush out of the city carrying large objects.

"Okay students, today we will tell the story of Cinderella..." Claire said standing on the podium in the classroom.

The children below also sat down neatly, raising their heads and looking at Claire attentively.

"A long time ago, there was a beautiful girl named Cinderella. She had a stepmother..."

"..."

"Then she got on Pumpkin Carriage and arrived at the prince's ball, and danced with the prince. The last time was almost up, Cinderella was afraid that the magic would disappear and she would turn back to her dirty look, so she ran away from the ball, but she lost a pair of Crystal Slipper at the ball..."

"In order to find the owner of Crystal Slipper, the prince searched almost all over the kingdom, and finally found the owner of the shoes in a farmhouse in the suburbs..."

"The prince was very excited and said: So you are the owner of Crystal Slipper that day..."

"Cinderella also replied: Your Highness the Prince! I am the Cinderella who danced with you that day!"

"At the end of the story, the prince finally returned the lost Crystal Slipper to Cinderella, and after finding the owner of Crystal Slipper, he could finally go home with peace of mind." Claire closed the storybook, looked at the children below and asked, "Classmates, what did we learn from this story?"

The children below said in unison, "If you pick something up, you must return it to the owner!"

Claire nodded with satisfaction, yes, it is in line with the core values of socialism.
