Calen's work efficiency is very high. After returning home, he quickly found some professionals related to jewelry design. Claire gave them better treatment than outside and arranged them to Mermaid Port.

After receiving the relevant design drawings, the craftsmen on Nakin Town also began to get busy and produced the jewelry on the drawings.

After the jewelry was made, it was also transported to Nafu City. The blacksmiths with stronger forging skills in Blacksmith Street performed magic enchantments and inscriptions. The whole process was very smooth, Claire also asked High Mage, the two of Magic School, who are good at inscriptions and enchantments, to go to Blacksmith Street every day to teach them relevant knowledge, so that the blacksmiths' abilities can be improved again.

This is the benefit of a complete and sound system. No matter what needs you have, you can quickly meet them.

Things went very smoothly. In almost a week, there were already thousands of pieces of jewelry. Claire also spent nearly tens of millions of gold coins on it. The money was burned at such a speed that even the person in charge, Reagan, felt distressed. However, he still believed that since his young master did this, he would definitely be able to earn more money!

"Master, the jeweler from Kingdom of Zesilia is here."

"Huh? Tell him to wait. I'll go there after breakfast." Claire was a little surprised. Logically speaking, things shouldn't be progressing that fast. I'm afraid there might be something hindering me from coming here now.

But nothing can delay my breakfast.

Still in the living room, after Claire opened the door and came in, Calen stood up again.

Claire glanced at the other party briefly, but Calen no longer looked as downcast as before. The cheap clothes he was wearing had also been replaced by a set of low-key and luxurious clothes, making him look like a successful person. It seems that the money from Claire gave him a lot of confidence to come back.

"Lord Claire." Calen said hello respectfully.

"Yeah." Claire nodded, walked to the main seat and sat down.

"Did something happen?" Claire asked directly after sitting down.

A look of surprise flashed across Calen's face, and he was a little surprised how Claire knew.

"Well, some problems have arisen and I need to come over and discuss it with you."

"Please tell me."

"Didn't I tell you about the style of jewelers before? The difference and grade between a jeweler and other jewelers is determined by the style of the jewellery. It is not accurate to say that it is style. It should be called the brand characteristics of a jewellery."

Claire nodded and motioned for the other party to continue.

"The style of a jewelry brand generally requires a master in the industry to establish it. After I went back this time, I couldn't find a famous master to support us..." Kai stopped after he said it. He knew that Claire knew what he meant.

A master in the industry can not only play a role in establishing style, but is also very important for their re-emerging brand. With the endorsement of masters in the industry, your own brand can also use the fame of those masters to quickly spread its reputation and attract more customers.

Masters are different from ordinary jewelry designers. They are more like a weather vane, which is especially crucial for a jewelry dealer. The jewelry designers Calen sent to Claire a few days ago can be said to have designed according to the framework set by those masters. They can only be said to be workers. The ones who really play a decisive role must be the masters in the industry.

"Why?" Claire asked.

"There are many reasons. For example, many masters have already reached cooperative relationships with some famous jewelers in Mary Port and will not cooperate with other jewelers. Others can open their own studios and cooperate with various jewelers. The strength of the masters Even more powerful, but these masters look down on our brand..." Calen said with emotion, his own Mina Jewelry Shop used to be a top jeweler, but now he has been reduced to being looked down upon by others.

"There are also some masters who are not very powerful. They either look down on us or think that the risk of working with me is very high. Reputation in this industry is very important. If the jewelry he designs after cooperating with us does not sell at a corresponding price and sales volume, then his status in this industry will become lower and affect his subsequent income. Therefore, they are more willing to cooperate with those big-name jewelry merchants for stability."

Claire nodded, "I understand, but the money is just not enough?"

Calen was stunned. What Lord Claire said was really close to the essence, but I have to say that this sentence does make sense. He is a businessman, and his most espoused saying is that there is no such thing as a bad deal, only a bad price.

However, Calen still reminded, "Lord Claire, the fees of those masters are also very high. If we want to make a profit, it is impossible to give them too much money."

"I don't need the money from the jewelry store, I pay for it myself." Claire said. He didn't earn the money from the jewelry store, but the money from the export side, so in his opinion, this expenditure is not a big cost. As long as the reputation of Nafu City's jewelry is made, the money paid is just a small amount.

"Who is the most famous master over there? I happen to be free these days, so I will go visit him with you."

Calen blinked, Lord Claire actually wanted to go on a business trip with him?

After a moment of confusion, Calen quickly replied, "Master Ona! He is recognized as the number one jewelry design master here, and he has not yet reached exclusive cooperation with other jewelry merchants."

"Master Ona?" Claire repeated, and suddenly said, "Shaquai Port's?"

Calen was even more surprised, "How did you know!"

Claire smiled slightly. That was what he heard from the waiter in the jewelry store when Hill City bought jewelry for Yana. The mage's mental attributes are terrifyingly high, and his memory is naturally not weak. Now that Claire felt that it sounded familiar, he thought of it after just a little thought.

Then Claire stood up and patted Calen on the shoulder, "You came here early in the morning and haven't eaten yet. Let the maid take you to the kitchen to have breakfast first. After eating, we will set off."

"Huh? Oh, okay, I happen to be a little hungry." Calen also stood up.

Shaquai Port is located on a small island, not far from Mary Port, the first port city of Jersey, and can be reached in less than an hour by boat.

Shaquai Port is different from other cities. It is not far from Mary Port, and it is an independent island with a developed economy, so it has become a residential area for nobles and wealthy people. All the buildings and services inside are for the wealthy and nobles living here.

And the Master Ona that Claire is looking for lives here. Besides him, there are also many masters in other art fields living here. As just said, there are many rich people living here. These masters who are top in their own industries are naturally rich people.

"Ta!"

At the dock of Shaquai Port, Claire and Calen landed from the air. After Calen landed with his feet on the ground, he patted his chest with lingering fear. He thought that what Claire said to him was that he wanted to come by boat with him.

He never thought that Claire was actually a mage. After he had breakfast, he took him flying in the air. The distance of more than 800 kilometers from Nafu City to here took less than an hour. If he didn't take him with him, the speed would probably be faster.

And it seems that they are not ordinary mages. After entering the territory of Kingdom of Zesilia, two mages appeared to inquire. They should be the national forces sent by the kingdom to protect Mary Port. The main reason is that the two mages were quite respectful towards him. After asking about the purpose of their visit, they also wished Claire a happy game.

Claire glanced at Calen who was in a daze and asked, "Where is Master Ona?"

"Follow me." Calen's tone became more respectful.
