Chapter 147: [Bonus chapter] CHAPTER 146
Andrew calmly explained to the excited Carolina why the projection orb was not a profitable business at the moment. The first thing was that the projection orb was something bought from the system and it wasn't cheap either, so it wasn't profitable to spend points to get money.
The second reason is just as critical since it refers to the content. Currently, the content is also purchased in the system, so the same situation was presented as before, spending points to obtain money, that is not profitable.
When Carolina heard the two reasons why that business was not profitable, she could only sigh in disappointment. Andrew had the idea of studying these two elements so that they could be created in masse later, but he couldn't do that at the moment.
However, while he had that thought, Fluffy mentally said, "That's not necessary master. Just buy the manufacturing blueprints, and with the synthesis skill you can produce them like rejuvenating creams and other products."
Andrew was surprised to hear the solution that Fluffy had given him, but before getting too excited, Fluffy spoke again, "However, you have several things to consider."
Before Andrew could ask, Fluffy continued, "First, the blueprint for the projection orb isn't cheap, and second, any projection orbs created by purchasing the blueprint will not support purchased disks on the system."
"What do you mean?" Andrew immediately asked wanting Fluffy to clarify and Fluffy didn't take long, "System-purchased discs like the ones with the videos you showed everyone only work on a system-purchased projection orb. The projection orbs created by the suggestion I told you before can't play those discs."
"So how can I use them? If I can't put disks on them, those manufactured orbs are no different than paperweights", Andrew said a little anxious and Fluffy answered him, "Master, just as there are blueprints for projection orbs, there are also blueprints for cameras".
Fluffy didn't have to clarify anything this time, as Andrew understood immediately, only a fool wouldn't understand what those words implied. However, a doubt assailed him.
"Fluffy, why are there planes of projection orbs and cameras in the system?" Although Andrew had an idea of the reason, he wanted to make sure, and Fuffy confirmed, "Master, though those items have many functions and belong to different specialization fields, its existence allows the creation of many industries focused on sex and eroticism".
Although elaborate, Fluffy's response confirmed Andrew's speculation. While it is true that the projector and the camera have nothing to do with sex or eroticism, it is undeniable that with the two of them, the pornographic industry that Andrew enjoyed so much in his previous life would born.
Confirming that fact, Andrew immediately envisioned creating the world's largest porn empire. He was also clear that those two objects weren't just for making porn, but since he was a candidate for the god Eros, that alone caught his attention, but he was soon taken out of his fantasy world when Carolina patted his face.
Carolina and Helena knew that when Andrew was silent for a long time it was because he was talking to Fluffy, so they didn't interrupt him, but when they saw that Andrew showed a strange expression on his face, they had to wake him up, because they knew he was fantasizing about something strange.
Returning to reality, Andrew saw how his wives looked at him strangely and embarrassed, he coughed twice to hide his embarrassment and said, "Sorry, I was consulting with Fluffy and it seems that these orbs can be created, but there are several restrictions."
Carolina's eyes shone like stars upon hearing that projection orbs could be created. She didn't even hear that there were restrictions because she knew that the profits from selling those items exceeded any restrictions.
Although not as enthusiastic, Helena was also curious about this information and she too urged Andrew to talk about what Fluffy had told him.
They were both excited, but when Andrew told them about the cameras and what could be done with them, the two girls were flabbergasted, as smart women quickly grasped how big the business was.
"How many points do you need for those plans?" Carolina asked instantly. Yes, the girls knew about the points, because Andrew told them.
He certainly didn't have his wives for the points, but for some reason, he felt he was doing something wrong by not telling them, so he had told them, in fact, that was one of the reasons for Carolina and Helena's insecurity before because they didn't know if he only wanted them to earn points. ժ*і#∫ҫө+√ƹ@г$-∫т%σ+гίе∫-+
Hearing the question, Andrew replied, "2 million for the projection orb blueprints and 5 million for the camera blueprints." Andrew hadn't finished speaking when Carolina asked again, "How many points do you have?", to which Andrew replied with a wry smile, "223,000".
Carolina was speechless when she heard the small number. If it was a few months ago Andrew would be jumping on one leg for having that many points, but nowadays, all the skills, items, blueprints, recipes, and other things in the system that he wanted to obtain always exceeded a million points, so he understood how his wife felt.
Carolina wanted to ask Andrew how to get points faster, but she held back because they had already had that conversation and Andrew told them that he didn't really know the exact number of points he would earn, but he did know that the more variety of activities he did, the more points he would earn, but he didn't want his wives to know that.
Although hiding that from them prevented him from earning points more easily, Andrew stuck to that decision, as he didn't want his wives to do crazy things just to help him earn points.
He wanted to do crazy things with his wives, but because it would be fun and exciting, not for points, and even though it seemed like a stupid thought if you looked at it logically, the Eros gods weren't logical, so Andrew's thought really wasn't that strange that was the personalities of the majority of Eros gods.
Despite the cough, Andrew noticed what Carolina wanted to ask, and stroking his head he said, "Don't be impatient, we can take our time with this business, we haven't opened the dance room yet."
Carolina understood that she was rushing too much, so she took a deep breath and calmed down. Andrew, noticing that Carolina had calmed down, smiled at her and said, "Well, let's put that aside, now we have to worry about the dance room."
Carolina and Helena nodded at Andrew's statement, then he went on to say, "Although the girls can learn from the video, Helena I need you to supervise them. Don't let them overexert themselves, they should only train in the morning, if you see them failing to comply, you have to punish them".
Helena smiled at Andrew's words, as they were not the words of a person from this industry. In her years of experience, she knew that most pleasure house owners didn't care about courtesans, they were just tools to generate money.
For that reason, a person like Andrew who cared about the well-being of his courtesans is quite rare and although this could lead to various problems, Helena preferred this more humane attitude.
She nodded her head, implying that she would do what was necessary so that the courtesans did not overexert themselves. Then Andrew looked at Carolina and said, "The influx of customers is going to increase, so coordinate the purchase of food and liquor, as well as the maintenance of the establishment."
Just as Helena, Carolina nodded her head showing her understanding, to which Andrew smiled and spoke again, "Aki", and from the shadows the little assassin appeared.
Although the master-slave contract was gone, with the wife seal, Andrew could feel his wives both in distance and status, although it was a somewhat ambiguous feeling, it was more powerful than the master-slave contract, so that's why he knew that Aki had gotten up and was nearby.
Andrew looked at Aki appraisingly and said, "Why the mask?" to which Aki replied, "I'm working." Andrew narrowed his eyes suspiciously and said again, "Oliver asked you to stay with me, he didn't say anything about going in the shadows and wearing a mask."
Andrew thought he would catch the little girl with that comment, but Aki was prepared, "I specialize in stealth, if I'm in plain sight I won't be able to do anything." Hearing the conversation they were having, Carolina and Helena couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Their laughter interrupted the conversation, but Andrew wasn't going to continue arguing, but still, he told Aki, "I'll take care of your attitude tonight". Although no one could see it through the mask, Aki was flushed with an expectant expression at Andrew's threat.
The other two girls didn't listen to Andrew, because they were still laughing, and when they finally calmed down Andrew spoke again, "Aki, tell Oliver to come over, I think it's time to define the subject of Nadila."
Aki gave a slight nod and disappeared into the shadows. Andrew couldn't help but think that this ability to move in the shadows was amazing, unfortunately, he couldn't use it.
