Summer year, January 1st, the weather is fine.

The first day of school.

At the registration window of the Brno School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, after paying the tuition fee of 1,000 gold coins, the body occupied by Zhou Ming began the third year of his study career.

Anyway, how many years can he study at the Brno School of Witchcraft and Wizardry?

When will you graduate?

It depends on the age and magical cultivation of the student.

The age limit for the Brno School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is 12 to 30 years old, and students in this age group can only enter this school if they have a certain magical talent and are from the Kingdom of Addud...... Of course, you must also be able to afford the annual tuition fee of 1,000 gold coins.

There are a total of 5 classes in the school, which are divided by age.

Class 1 is an adult class with students between the ages of 18 and 30.

Class 2 is an adult class with students between the ages of 16 and 18.

Class 3 is a junior class with students between the ages of 14 and 16.

Classes 4 and 5 are all basic classes and students are between the ages of 12 and 14.

As the age of the students increases, the class will also change, and Zhou Ming's body occupied by the previous year in Class 3, and was later promoted to Class 2.

In two years, he will turn 18 and may enter the adult class.

However, Zhou Ming thought that he was almost seventeen years old, and he would stay in this magic school for two years at most, and when he was about 19 years old, he would leave this school.

Because the graduation standard of Brno School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is that the magic cultivation can reach the intermediate magician, as long as Zhou Ming's strength reaches the intermediate magician level, he can apply for graduation from the school and get the graduation badge issued by the school.

Generally speaking, in the Brno School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, there are few people who have not graduated at the age of 25, and intermediate magicians are not so difficult to achieve, so Zhou Ming is sure that at the age of 18, he will break through to the intermediate magician.

Only when this level is reached, there is nothing to be nostalgic for in this school, and if you want to improve, you can only go to the outside world to wander.

After the start of the school year, the number of students in Class 2 was originally 36, but 10 students were promoted to Class 1, and 14 students were transferred from Class 3 to Class 2.

In the end, the number of students in Class 2 was fixed at 40, and a small half of the blood was replaced.

This is good news for Zhou Ming, because among the male classmates in the class, there are a few Martin's friends who used to bully him.

came in a group of old classmates who had a good relationship with Zhou Ming.

Such as the fat man Baum, the handsome guy Connie, the big man Wolfe...... These three people are quite familiar with the previous Zhou Ming.

After learning that Martin had named himself to teach himself a good lesson, Zhou Ming of course launched an action, recruited a group of classmates, and formed his own gang.

Zhou Ming took two moves.

One trick is to invite guests to dinner and emotional wooing.

Let's start with the fat Baum, Connie, and Wolf.

Less than a week after the start of school, Zhou Ming invited the three classmates to dinner five times, and almost every day after school, he took them to a high-end restaurant and served them with delicious magic cakes.

These three classmates are not fools, of course they all understand what Zhou Ming meant.

But......

On Saturday, after school, Zhou Ming grabbed the three classmates again, saying that they were on vacation on Sunday and wanted to invite them out to play together, and asked them if they were interested.

The fat man Baum glanced around and said to him: "Leylin, it's not that I don't want to help you, but Martin has warned us and told us not to interfere, whoever dares to interfere, Martin will teach him a lesson, I ......"

Baum looked embarrassed: "I can't afford to offend Martin." ”

Connie on the side said to Zhou Ming: "Lei Lin, you won't come to school next week, Martin said, next week, you will definitely not be able to run away." ”

The big man Wolf also shrugged helplessly: "Leylin, I really want to help you, but my father is just a small baron, and he is still a vassal of the Hewlett family (the family behind Martin), and I can't go against Martin no matter what." ”

The three students meant to express concern and sympathy, but none of them could help or dared not help.

Zhou Ming did not feel disappointed or angry, but expressed understanding.

And told them that whether they helped or not, this weekend, he wanted to treat the three of them to a meal, because they were friends, no matter what, and he didn't want to lose these good friends worth making because of some difficulties.

These words made the fat man Baum blush, and he said without shame, and he said: "Leylin, the three of us will invite you to a meal, why are you embarrassed to keep letting you have a treat." ”

"Yes, we'll have you, Raylin!" Connie said.

The big man Wolf sighed and muttered in a low voice, "What kind of friends are we?"

……

Sunday.

In a high-end restaurant, the four of them got together again and ordered a lot of good food and wine.

At the dinner table, the atmosphere was relatively dull, the dishes were not moved much, Wolf drank the sullen wine cup after glass, and the fat Baum and Connie kept persuading Zhou Ming: Don't go to school next week, it's too dangerous.

Zhou Ming smiled slightly, didn't pay much attention to it, but took out two things from his pocket, put them in front of them and shook them.

A badge.

and a bottle of potions.

Fat Baum: They were puzzled and asked what it was?

Zhou Ming told them to take it over and take a closer look.

"This badge has a medicine bottle mark on it, it seems to be a pharmacist badge issued by the Magic Association, and the material is made of black iron, which means ...... Intermediate Pharmacist. ”

"Isn't this potion [tranquilizer]? In order to perceive the magic element, my family bought me a few bottles, and I heard that it costs thousands of gold coins for a bottle, and the effect of this potion is really good, but my family still owes a lot of money to others. ”

Connie, whose father was a viscount, had a little insight and recognized this as a [tranquilizer].

The big man Wolf stopped drinking, looked at Zhou Ming, and asked with some surprise: "Lei Lin, who are these two things?"

"It's mine. ”

Zhou Ming nodded and said, "These two things are mine." ”

What the?

Fat Baum and the others were taken aback, this ......

Zhou Ming explained to them that he had discovered his talent to become a pharmacist by chance, so during the school holidays, he followed Mr. Hall, the owner of Gannis's pharmacy, to learn pharmacy knowledge for a period of time, and recently successfully obtained the rank of "intermediate pharmacist".

As for the bottle of [Tranquilizing Elixir], it was a work he had prepared himself, and the medicinal effect was the same as the [Calming Elixir] sold in the pharmacy.

"I don't believe you can all drink a bottle and try the effect. ”

Zhou Ming took out two bottles of [Tranquilizing Elixir] from his pocket and handed them to them.

Fat Baum and the others couldn't close their mouths in surprise.

Their classmate Lei Lin was actually an intermediate pharmacist who was a hundred times rarer than a magician?

In the following chat, in the face of the excited interrogation of the three classmates, Zhou Ming revealed two key information:

One, the [Tranquilizing Elixir] he concocted, costs about 100 gold coins per bottle.

Two, at his current level, can prepare up to 10 bottles of [Tranquilizing Elixir] a day.

After learning these two key pieces of information, the brains of the three students began to run at a high speed.

How could they not know the importance of [Tranquilizing Elixir], the reason why those rich local tyrant classmates were able to open a significant gap with them in cultivation was that they often took [Tranquilizing Elixir], and their cultivation speed was twice as fast as theirs.

It's just that the high price of the tranquilizer is a little unaffordable for the children of the Earl family, and it is estimated that only about 20 families in the Kingdom of Adedud have such conditions.

In the Brno School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, there are no more than 10 students who can drink tranquilizers all year round.

These few people naturally became the best in the school.

And what about Fat Baum?

They are also from noble backgrounds, but they belong to the middle and lower class nobles, poor nobles, and they don't have that condition, so they use the money that can train hundreds or thousands of elite knights to train a magician.

Now, Zhou Ming said that he was a rare pharmacist who could prepare [Tranquilizing Elixir] in batches at a cost of about 100 gold coins.

For a while, the three classmates all had the same thoughts.

But I don't know how to speak.

Zhou Ming seemed to understand what they were thinking, and said sincerely:

"Baum, Connie, Wolfe, you're all good friends of mine, and as friends, I'm willing to share my stuff with you. ”

"The [Tranquilizing Elixir] I have refined can be sold to you at the cost price of 100 gold coins per bottle, and each person can buy one bottle per day. ”

"It's just that I'm a magician, I need to study in school, and I can't stay at home all day. ”

"But Martin they want to deal with me, and I don't know how much I offended him there, and he hates me so much. ”

He said helplessly: "If I was caught by Martin that day and injured or disabled by him, I am afraid that I will not be able to provide you with the [tranquilizing elixir] here." ”

As soon as the words fell, three voices sounded almost simultaneously:

"Thunderlin, I'll help you!"

The fat man Baum, Connie, and Wolf abandoned all their worries and immediately decided to join Zhou Ming's camp.

Why?

Calming elixir.

One bottle of tranquilizer per day.

The price is only 100 gold coins per bottle.

What does this mean?

Double the cultivation speed, as well as a considerable income.

You must know that the effect of a bottle of [Tranquilizing Elixir] is three days, and Fat Baum and others can take one bottle by themselves, and the other two bottles can be sold to other students.

It doesn't matter if Baum sells 200 or 300 gold coins or 500 or 800 gold coins, as long as the price is cheaper than that of regular pharmacies, they will not be able to sell it.

Even if they increase the price to 200 gold, multiply it by two, and subtract the cost of 300 gold, they can earn 100 gold every three days!

This is an interest that cannot be ignored!

Enough to dispel all previous concerns.

And Zhou Ming also told Baum that he hoped that they would help develop a group of "customers", and select the more high-quality parts from these customers to develop into "core customers".

These core customers also enjoy the right to purchase [tranquilizers] at cost price.

However, there are only 10 places available...... Zhou Ming's production is limited, and he can't prepare too many tranquilizing elixirs.

After Zhou Ming finished speaking, the fat man Baum and the others all looked at him with admiration, and sighed in their hearts: This classmate is really ......

served.

They're convinced.

……

A few days later.

Friday, afternoon after school.

In the past, as soon as school was over, Zhou Ming, who added an "acceleration technique" to himself and ran desperately in the direction of home, did not do so today.

Instead, he walked slowly towards the grove north of the school.

And he couldn't run if he wanted to run today, Martin, a classmate who vowed to take him down, mobilized more than 50 classmates in a record-breaking way, laid a net, and arranged more than 10 people around Zhou Ming in the last class before school, so as not to give him a chance to escape.

In the entire Brno School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, there are only about 180 students, and more than one-third of the girls are removed, and there are 110 boys in total.

Martin gathered nearly half of the people to come over.

"This mobilization and organization ability is also so strong that no one else. ”

Deep in the grove.

An open field.

Zhou Ming, who was held by two strong men on the left and right, saw his classmate Martin, who had been waiting here for a long time.

"Boss Martin, the soft rice man brought it over. The younger brother said.

Martin, who was whistling, turned his head and looked at Zhou Ming with a bright smile, crossed his hands on his waist, twisted his neck, and was in a good mood.

"Martin-san, you... What do you want to do?"

Seeing this formation, Zhou Ming seemed to be very scared.

"What for?"

Martin laughed, his face became extremely hideous, and he clenched his fists and walked over and said: "Soft rice man, you have eaten too much soft rice, have you forgotten how many meals you owe me? Today, I will let you call back all the beatings you owe me!"
