Chapter 15: Junior Magician
Flipping through the two pages of the improved version of the [Tranquilizing Elixir] formula in his hand, Store Manager Hall's body trembled slightly.
He couldn't stop muttering: "Can you still do this?"
"Wonderful, wonderful!"
"Genius, this is something that only a peerless genius can do. β
Store Manager Hall praised again and again, this improved version of the potion formula has completely conquered him.
In his eyes, Zhou Ming has become a super genius in the field of pharmacy with terrifying talents.
He said in his heart: Compared with this real genius, his granddaughter is really too far behind.
"Lei Lin, you take back all these 500 [Tranquilizing Elixirs], and don't mention the 50% licensing fee in the future, this improved version of your formula is worth far more than one million gold coins. β
Store manager Hall said that he didn't want to take advantage of this young man, the market demand for [Tranquilizer] was very large, and his original formula was already the most scientific, the most effective, and the most powerful formula among all the [Tranquilizer] formulas, and there was almost no room for improvement in one step.
Now this young man has saved it 65 steps, which makes the difficulty of preparing the [Tranquilizing Elixir] directly drop by one level.
In addition, the utilization rate of medicinal materials has increased by 20%, and the profit margin has also increased by 20%.
Combining the two aspects, the profit of the Gannis Pharmacy has increased by at least 30% for the [Tranquilizing Elixir].
How embarrassed is the store manager Hall to charge Zhou Ming another 50% of the "formula authorization" fee.
"That's not good, is it?"
Zhou Ming was a little embarrassed now, the store manager Hall gave him a lot of help, not only the formula, but also his study notes and rare books, all of which were lent to Zhou Ming for free, and the medicinal materials were also sold to him at cost price...... This support cannot be measured in monetary terms.
Zhou Ming also planned that he would suffer a little loss on the [Tranquilizing Elixir], and 50% of the income would be calculated for Store Manager Hall, and for other medicines in the future, he would have to talk about the proportion of this authorization fee and reduce it to 2,30%.
Now it seems that he is a bit of a villain, and he spends the belly of a gentleman.
Magicians are not businessmen after all, they do not have the calculating, calculating character of businessmen, they pursue the depth of knowledge, the eternal life of life, the strength of the individual, and other more meaningful things.
They will never be overly after money.
Like the store manager Hall, he takes such good care of Zhou Ming, a "good seedling", and provides a lot of help without asking for anything in return...... Zhou Ming felt a little embarrassed.
"Store manager Hall, these 500 soothing elixirs, please be sure to accept them! Otherwise, I feel very uneasy, in addition, I will have to research more potions in the future, and I also need your help from the store manager, I hope this cooperation can be a good start." β
Zhou Ming bowed and said, lowering his posture a lot.
"Okay! whatever potion recipes you need in the future, I'll use them all for you!"
Store Manager Hall nodded, he believed that the young man in front of him would definitely become a grandmaster-level pharmacist.
When he went back, Zhou Ming also formed a cooperation with President Hall:
In the future, Zhou Ming prepared potions such as [Tranquilizing Elixir], and the part he couldn't use up would be put into the Gannis Pharmacy for sale, as for the share, the Gannis Pharmacy got 4 percent, and Zhou Ming got 6 percent (he originally asked for fifty-fifty shares, but Store Manager Hall insisted that he take the lion's share).
Zhou Ming, who successfully established a cooperative relationship with Gannis Pharmacy, also has an additional way to get rich.
With Zhou Ming's terrifying potion preparation speed, the gold coins he earns in a day can reach more than 100,000.
In fact, in his heart, there is an even more creepy plan:
Industrialized preparation of magic potions.
Just like the industrial alchemy in the plane of "Lingyuan Continent", it is a pharmaceutical preparation industry, forming a large-scale and assembly line.
At that time, the magic potions produced will be like the beverage filling line, millions or tens of millions of them will be rolled off the assembly line every day...... The production capacity and efficiency are much higher than that of his personal busy robot, I don't know how much.
But......
I don't know how many years later.
β¦β¦
On the way back to Red Mopan Street.
As soon as he walked through an alley, Zhou Ming's ears moved, and he suddenly bent over and rolled.
"Huhu~"
A strong gust of wind rubbed his robes through the alley.
The dust was blown up, and the sand and gravel were filled.
β&@#οΏ₯#β¦β¦β
"Wind MagicβAcceleration!"
Zhou Ming recited a string of incantations from his mouth, added an acceleration technique to himself, and instantly lost most of his weight, and then turned into an afterimage, rushing out of the alley at a speed faster than the Olympic sprint champion, and disappeared around the corner of the street not far away.
"Damn it!"
Winnie, who was standing on the wall of the alley with her staff in hand, stomped her foot hard, and the fireball that had begun to form in her hand had to be canceled.
The royal capital is densely populated, and once the powerful magic is unleashed, it will definitely hurt the innocent.
Although the desire to kill someone was intense, Winnie had to keep her destructive power within a certain range.
Otherwise, Grandpa would definitely reprimand her.
"Don't be complacent, boy, if you fall into my hands, hum!"
Winnie gritted her teeth, her eyes full of murder.
Her dignity and pride have been trampled and insulted by that kid again and again, she can't hold back her anger, she must take revenge!
Even though she knows that she is hideous and ugly, don't do it in my hands, boy.
Our business is not over!
β¦β¦
Back home.
Zhou Ming looked at the torn corner of the robe, and smiled helplessly.
"Pretending to be forced is really too much, and it's not good to offend anyone, but it offends women. β
"It's still a beautiful woman to offend. β
"It's a bit of a problem, it's a bit of a problem now. β
You must know that women can use a lot of resources, especially beautiful women, and I don't know how many people are willing to stand up for her.
What to do?
What should I do?
It's unlikely that you'll be forced back to put it out, so you have to be careful.
In addition, his own strength must also be accelerated to achieve sufficient self-protection, so that he can withstand the joint attack of the forces that have been slapped in the face from all sides.
"Sir, your clothes are torn, I'll fix them for you. β
Lina, who was cleaning, saw a conspicuous opening on Zhou Ming's robe, she stopped what she was doing and said to Zhou Ming.
"Okay, thank you. β
Looking at Lina, who was dressed in maid clothes and her appearance and temperament were becoming more and more eye-catching, Zhou Ming nodded appreciatively, took off her robe, and handed it to her.
Lina went to her room to fetch needlework and thread, sat on the sofa in the living room, and sewed it for him with a focused face.
More than half an hour later.
The sewn robe was handed to Zhou Ming's hand.
Zhou Ming looked at the sewing and found that if he didn't look closely, he could hardly see the traces of the sewing.
And the eye of the needle is neat, the thread is straight, and it is arranged at equal distances, as handled by a sewing machine.
Lina's sewing skills, Zhou Ming really can't find the slightest fault, only constantly praise.
"Sir, you're overblowing, that's an exaggeration. β
Lina, who was not too embarrassed to be praised, smiled with two dimples on her face.
Seeing her smile full of healing energy, Zhou Ming's heart moved, and he suddenly asked, "Lina, do you want to make more money?"
"Huh?"
Lina was stunned by the question, and said with a strange expression: "Why did Mr. say that?"
In fact, as a servant in the apartment, Zhou Ming gave her a salary - 10 gold coins a month.
This salary income makes Lina's salary level exceed 80% of the working class in the entire royal capital.
Lina was already quite content.
In addition, in the magic cake shop, Zhou Ming would take her to the cake shop every morning for half a day, teaching the apprentices to make burgers that were popular with customers, and participating in the research of many new products.
Because of her outstanding ability, she was unanimously recognized by everyone, and the magic cake shop not only gave her a monthly salary of 100 gold coins, which was low last month, but also gave her a bonus of 500 gold coins.
The total is 600 gold.
Lina had never made that much money in her life.
Holding the money, she didn't sleep well for several nights and cried a few times.
Perhaps seeing her troubles, Zhou Ming said to her:
"There is no harm in making more money and putting it on his body, your brother Henry is very talented, he has recently successfully sensed the magic element, and it is very likely that he will become a magician, but I don't have much time to teach him, you can save some money, I will help him find a way, if he successfully awakens, I will arrange him to enter the Brno School of Magic and Magic, and receive formal magic learning." β
In this way, it is not a delay in his talent. β
Henry was only 14 years old, and the age range for admission to the Brno School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was 12 to 30 years old, and civilians were not excluded from admission...... As long as you can afford to pay the tuition fees.
Hearing Zhou Ming's words, Lina nodded again and again, knowing that the little money in her hand was far from enough.
For the sake of my brother's future, I have to save more!
Today, I suddenly heard Zhou Ming ask her if she wanted to make more money, although she was a little surprised, Lina still nodded: "Yes!"
"Okay! After a while, I plan to enter the aristocratic clothing industry, you follow me first, and strive to learn most of the techniques, if you have outstanding ability, I will hand over all the aristocratic clothing to you in the future, and give you a certain share. β
"Lina, believe me, this piece of aristocratic clothing is a supermarket that reaches tens of millions, hundreds of millions of gold coins, as long as you take this market, even if I share 1% of your shares, you can earn hundreds of thousands, millions of gold coins every year. β
"When the time comes, Henry wants to become a powerful magician, and you don't have to worry about money at all. β
Zhou Ming has the intention of cultivating Lina, and is ready to be handed over to her to take care of the work of aristocratic clothing.
Lina was excited when she heard this, her eyes shot with semen, and she nodded again and again and said, "Sir, I will definitely do a good job." β
At this moment, she exudes the aura of a strong woman.
Zhou Ming nodded.
β¦β¦
This evening.
After the meditation that lasted six hours.
"Boom~" sounded.
The soul trembled.
A large amount of magic power, from the surrounding air, merged into Zhou Ming's body.
He let out a sigh of relief, feeling like his body was crystal clear.
Broke through.
His cultivation has broken through from a trainee magician to a junior magician.
Open the system panel in your mind and view your personal cultivation data:
Rank: Junior Magician
Mana: 26.017 (100 next level)
Sensing range: 65cm (200 in the next level)
Soul Frequency: 1.10 (1.20 next)
Energy: 0 (Lack of mental power, unable to continue meditating)
Among these four values, the magic value and the perception range are two, in fact, Zhou Ming has already reached the breakthrough standard a few days ago, but he was held back by the soul frequency.
Fortunately, as long as you continue to meditate, your soul frequency will slowly increase.
And what does soul frequency mean?
The number of magic departments that can be learned.
After being promoted to a junior magician, the magic that Zhou Ming could master expanded from a single wind system to two types: wind and fire.
In other words, he can change from a single wind mage to a dual wind and fire mage.
It's a big leap.
