The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman

Chapter 2600 Shangri-La (Part 2)

It’s not that no one really lives like this. At least the places in the town that tourists can see have been restored to the old style, showing the southern Tibetan style as much as possible, especially the Sherpa culture.

Most people living in their own homes will not hang so many decorations on the door. At most, they will put them out for viewing during festivals, just like posting couplets during the Spring Festival. But tourists just like to see this, so the Cultural and Tourism Bureau requires the decoration to be perfect.

Activities such as hand-beating barley are also popular with tourists and are listed as experience projects. Then there is the Sherpa song and dance culture, which is generally danced during the slack season, but because there is proof of income from the tourism industry, it is basically slack season all year round, so they dance all the time.

Strange had a lot of fun and thought the town was in good condition, but he did not agree to tourists entering Shambhala for a visit. In addition to the fact that the three villages were too small to accommodate them, the high altitude of Shambhala was also a problem.

Shambhala is basically located halfway up Mount Everest, close to 6,000 meters above sea level. The oxygen content is less than half of that of ordinary land. Tourists will definitely come and go, and there is no room for tourism development at all.

Moreover, magic is not something that is very suitable for publicity. Strange knows that the attitude of the country under his feet towards magic is to tell the people the existence of magic in a realistic way, but not to encourage or suppress it. For the talented people who can do magic, the main policy is to recruit them, and they also have enough jobs to provide.

However, the magic that Kamar-Taj knows is completely different from the small fights among the people. Just being able to control the weather, immune to natural disasters, and keep crops in the best growth state forever will definitely cause a shock in the court in all dynasties.

There is a big difference between hearing about Shambhala in legends and confirming with your own eyes that there is such a place in the world. If the real existence of Shambhala is spread out and causes any impact on the society of this country, Kamar-Taj cannot bear the blame.

Fortunately, they finally reached an agreement on this issue. Shambhala only needs to undergo minimal transformation to meet the needs of modern daily life, and at the same time, a road will be built to serve as the most basic material transportation.

In addition, the county magistrate proposed to build a shuttle station in Kashambhala Taj so that students can take the shuttle to and from school, so as to avoid the average of three out of ten people making mistakes in teleportation, which would occupy the police and medical resources of the townspeople.

When Strange mentioned this, his face turned red. The ring was not that easy to use, but he decided to list it as a basic course, which led to various teleportation accidents not only in the town, but also in Kamar-Taj.

Strange himself didn't like to use it very much. He was a modern man. He just needed to sit on the shuttle. It was different from casting magic, which required concentration and consumed magic power. The longer the distance, the less accurate the landing point.

Strange agreed to this request and also proposed that he wanted to connect Kamar-Taj to the Internet.

Unexpectedly, this request was the most difficult for the other party. Strange did not see the technical difficulty, so he asked a question. As a result, the other party said that they could only connect to the intranet, but not the international network.

After some bargaining, the other party finally stated their purpose. They heard that Kamar-Taj did not have an official language for teaching. If Kamar-Taj agreed to use Chinese as one of the official teaching languages, then they could connect two lines to Kamar-Taj.

Strange did not have a particularly clear concept of this. He probably knew that the other party wanted to export culture, but in his opinion, language was not the core of magic. There were people from all countries in Kamar-Taj, so it didn't matter which language was used for teaching.

And finally, the other party made the most important request, Strange wanted to help the three villages make money.

Not to mention catching up with the town at the foot of the mountain, at least they couldn't be so poor. Strange wanted to argue that they were not poor, but when it came to GDP, Strange knew that the report would definitely be blank.

Then he understood that this was probably because the county magistrate and the mayor did not want to be dragged down to the average level.

Strange agreed quite readily, but it was a bit troublesome to implement. Fortunately, he heard that Loki had come just after returning to Kamar-Taj. The two of them got together to study for a long time and came up with a simple charter.

They felt that it was not realistic to let the three villages change their industries now, so it would be better to give full play to their original advantages.

What are their advantages? Of course, it is fame.

The legend of Shambhala is very famous, so famous that even Strange, a Westerner, has heard of it. Everyone knows that this is the purest and most sacred place on the snowy plateau. So it is normal that the things produced here are sold at a higher price, right?

Although tourists cannot come in to visit, it is still possible to take an oxygen tank and take a look from a distance. As long as they know what it is but don’t know why, they can achieve the goal of not being too exposed and being famous.

What to produce is also critical. It is not realistic for a village with an altitude of 6,000 to 7,000 meters to produce snacks and pendants. It is obvious that it is wholesale, so it is necessary to find something that can only appear here, that is, herbs.

Needless to say, Cordyceps sinensis is internationally renowned for its special properties. Tianshan Snow Lotus is more famous in the East, and so is Snow Region Ganoderma Lucidum.

𝗌𝗍𝗈𝟧𝟧.𝖼𝗈𝗆

In fact, Shambhala does not produce these things at all. The herbs they produce have nothing to do with the magical medicines in the eyes of ordinary people. Most of them work because of the magical properties of the herbs.

But Strange doesn't dare to give magic herbs to ordinary people, so he has to really research some elixirs that fit the public's stereotypes.

The problem is that neither Strange nor Loki know anything about this. They are not Orientals at all, and they don't know what kind of gimmicks are the most attractive.

Later, there was a shortage of doctors in New York, and Strange returned urgently to provide support. Schiller also became a physician in the psychology department, and the matter was temporarily dropped.

After a period of time, the shortage of medical resources was basically alleviated. Schiller's graduate students and students brought out by psychologists attracted by Nick's interstellar psychology began to train one after another, and the shortage of psychologists was alleviated. , Strange finally had the opportunity to ask Schiller.

"So you want me to find someone?" Schiller blew the tea and said, "Then help you think about what kind of industry can we create to lead the village of Kamateki out of poverty and become rich?"

"Absolutely." Strange maintained his surgeon's indifference, but still sighed and said: "To tell you the truth, I am good at scamming, and the same goes for Loki, but if I really want to do something real, I have to create something real. Come……"

Schiller saw an emotion called anxiousness on Strange's face, and guessed that some of his experiments were not going well. He asked, "Did the magic herbs grow poorly?"

"The ones that are effective are not famous, and the ones that are famous are ineffective." Strange said concisely and concisely: "There is no difference between Cordyceps Sinensis and wild ones. Tianshan Snow Lotus does not have any medicinal value. Snowy Ganoderma lucidum is just an ordinary woody tissue. I don't know. Who said they were magical medicines?"

"Do you have to stick to these kinds of things?"

"These are the best-selling ones. I've done some research." Strange said: "Tourists in the town below ask everyone if they have cordyceps. Oh, by the way, there is also saffron, which is rare and not affected by magic. Plant, we tried it for half a day but couldn’t make it stronger.”

"Can't we not strengthen it? These things are already very scarce, as long as they can be grown."

"The problem is that you can't grow it." Strange said: "According to the analysis of the archmages, only wild medicinal materials have certain unique ingredients, and those we have produced in the laboratory do not. In other words, not only are they effective Without strengthening, it is useless at all.”

"If you just want to make money, you can just sell it. But Shambhala is an isolated island and you can't start a company by yourself. If you want to sell it, you have to borrow someone else's hand. If you are found out, not only the incense will be destroyed. Barra’s signature.”

Schiller nodded to express his understanding. In his opinion, what the mayor and the county magistrate actually meant was that since you can do magic, don't be stingy and produce some results as quickly as possible. Everything will be easy to discuss in the future.

Considering that sooner or later, this country would have to build a skyway over their heads, Strange felt that he should cooperate, and it would be good to improve the Internet speed among other things.

Since this is the case, we must not sell fake products. Not to mention that the efficacy of the medicine is dozens of times that of the original, but at least it must be stronger than the original, and the output must be higher than the original, in order to be competitive.

Schiller thinks this is also a troublesome thing. China in the Marvel universe is very powerful. The Mandarin with the Ten Rings can be chased like a lost dog. It can be seen that the famous Supreme Mage and Iron Fist are both from China.

Rather than saying that the Marvel editorial department prefers the threat theory, it is better to say that they need a mysterious and powerful oriental background, and if someone who was once particularly strong cannot write it, they can only BB demolish it.

Schiller completely understood that Karma Taj was unwilling to have a head-on conflict with the big guy next to him. After all, he was already occupying other people's land and clinging to his network, so he should do something.

Or it could be said that Gu Yi didn't do anything because he was originally one of his own, and the family did not speak the same language. But after all, Strange was an American, and he started building large-scale construction projects in the Himalayas not long after he arrived. Naturally, he wanted to come over to find out what was going on.

Schiller gloated and smiled and said: "I never thought that our Mr. Hand of God, who was going smoothly, would scratch his head in the exam room when he didn't review for exams. Forget it, this is a Yankee."

"Can you stop making sarcastic remarks?" Strange was quite dissatisfied. He stood up and said, "I know it's useless to come to you. Aren't you a Yankee too?"

"I'm mixed race."

"Aren't you from the Soviet Union?"

As soon as he said this, Strange wanted to slap himself. If the Soviet Union and the United States were mixed together, wouldn't they still be white? Wait, is Schiller of American descent?

Strange showed an inquiring expression, and Schiller stood up and said: "It doesn't matter which country I went to. The key is to do business. You have to find professionals."

"Aren't you a professional?"

"I'm a psychiatrist, not a businessman. You have to go to Tony Stark about this."

Marvel is still a daily thing
