Chapter 105: It's just cheating
The free trading area of the Academic Tower was quiet, and Charles waited for half a while without a single customer coming to his door, so he calmed down and carefully read through the two books that he needed to master the most.
Through the "Guide to Potion Trading" presented by the Society for the Study of the Occult, Charles analyzed a lot of the current state of the trading market.
Most of the pharmacists here only make endurance potions, burst potions, and other auxiliary potions, and basically no one is stupid enough to come to them to make awakening potions. Only formal pharmacists are capable of undertaking that kind of "big business", and this kind of business is regulated by the association.
After becoming a full-fledged pharmacist, you can apply for a part of the tube pharmacy in the name of "academic research", of course, this application opportunity is not unlimited, and it is only once every three months.
Shire's goal is to become a pharmacist in three months or less, and then apply for a document to prepare the one that is most needed.
Of course, in this process, the cost of learning must be strictly controlled, although the family's current financial situation has improved somewhat, but it has not yet gotten rid of the predicament of debt, and it is impossible to give him a large amount of money experience, which is also one of the important reasons why Charles chose to join the Occult Research Association to practice stalls.
As long as you have points, you can upgrade and make money!
Charles felt that he was definitely participating. He had analyzed the spiritual power induction potion rewarded by the Knight Academy, although the spiritual power vision could not observe the subtleties in the potion, but he could clearly perceive the fluctuations of the spiritual power molecules in it, which was his greatest reliance and advantage.
Charles once again opened the "Detailed Explanation of the Basics of the Apothecary" presented by Kopal, pondered and selected a few first-level spiritual power potions that he thought were the most sought-after, familiarized himself with their formulas, and planned to buy some unregulated ordinary spiritual power materials to practice his hands later.
"Huh, the new ......"
A figure suddenly walked up to Charles' stall, and Charles closed his book and looked up at his first guest.
Very trendy tuxedo, white shirt with bow tie, well-trimmed beard is very mature and masculine, and two slightly narrow eyes reveal shrewdness.
Charles was looking at him, and he was looking at Charles, and when he saw Charles with his face covered, he was visibly stunned.
"Is there anything you need?"
After all, it was the first guest, and Charles was the first to talk very kindly.
The other party asked with some hesitation, "Is there a high-quality tabby orchid powder?"
"Uh......"
Charles was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect his first business to be like this.
"This needs to wait a while, no Sakura today"
The visitor was obviously disappointed, and continued to ask, "So is there any juice from horse itch grass?"
Charles was even more embarrassed, this is the same type of item as the tabby orchid powder, but the applicable groups are a little different, "Not for the time being, but guests can make reservations." ”
The visitor obviously had already thought about it, but he still asked, "How much is the tabby orchid powder, and how much is the juice of the horse itch grass?"
Charles had just flipped through the book "The South of the Pharmacy Trade" and remembered the guide prices of these two luxury items very clearly.
"The powder of the tabby orchid is ten gold louis, and the juice of the horse itch grass is twelve gold louis. ”
The tuxedo-clad man had wide-eyed eyes and a look of disbelief on his face, and only laughed after a few moments, the kind of mockery that looks at a fool.
"Did you set the price based on the South of the Pharmacy Trade?"
Charles guessed that there was something wrong with his offer, but he still said calmly: "That's the price I have here." ”
"Huh...... Hehe, interesting!" The tuxedo man turned his head and walked away, still smiling softly as he walked far away.
Charles sat down indifferently and continued to read, he was not very interested in this kind of spiritual power item for **, the first purpose of his coming here was to practice potion preparation techniques, and making money was just incidental.
However, Charles had just read the book for a while, familiarized himself with the formulations of several combat auxiliary potions such as "Endurance Elixir", "Burst Potion", "Anti-Poison Potion" and "Healing Recovery Potion", and was about to apply for the purchase of materials, but there were customers coming to the door one after another.
"Is there any tabby powder? Preferably this autumn's ......"
“........”
"Is there any juice from horse itch grass? It's best to mix it in the near two, I'm in a hurry to use it, the price can be higher......
“.......”
I'll make it for you on the spot!
"I'm sorry, not yet!"
Charles was very irritable, but he still politely sent the person away, but after the people left, he opened the "Detailed Explanation of the Pharmacist's Basics" again, carefully read the formulas of the spiritual power potions used by these two flavors** several times, and added tabby orchid and itch grass to the list of applications for purchase.
Charles is no longer at mental age, and he has long known what "true fragrance" means.
Half an hour later, Charles's money bag deflated, and all the gold and silver coins in it were replaced with "Leaves of the Olive Horn Tree, Solid Spirit Sand, Fire Dragon Root, Sturgeon Bladder Bladder, Warm Sunflower, Tabby Orchid, and Horse Itch Grass", of which the latter two spiritual power materials took up most of the funds.
It was already noon when Charles walked aimlessly down the street, and after making sure that no one was following, he bought a baguette from a bakery on the side of the road, and waited for another half to get the public carriage back to the right bank of the Naser River.
Huddled in the narrow seats of the public carriage, nibbling on hard bread one bite at a time, Charles seemed to return to his time in the Great Dynasty, sandwiching buns and subways, counting the money in his pocket every penny.
The money in the money bag is only enough for the two round-trip cars from home to the academic tower, if these spiritual materials can't be made into potions, or if they can't be made into potions and can't be sold, Charles will have to ask Olive for money again, and Olive and the others don't know that they are setting up a stall in the academic tower to sell tabby orchid powder!
Charles had ridden around, walked, changed his clothes, and when he got home at four o'clock in the afternoon, he locked himself in the studio he had prepared yesterday and began to try his potion preparation next door.
The first is to make the spiritual liquid and the solid spiritual liquid, which are the basic auxiliary liquids for the preparation of two spiritual power potions, one is to activate the spiritual power from the spiritual power material, and the other is to solidify and stabilize the activated spiritual power.
Squeeze out the juice from the leaves of the olive horn tree and dilute it with pure water, which is the spiritual liquid used to activate spiritual power.
The solid spirit sand is crushed and ground, and then the powder is diluted with pure salt water, and the solid spirit liquid for solidifying spiritual power is formed after concealment.
Charles had done a lot of chemical experiments in junior high and high school, and he knew the principles of dilution and over-tracking, and he was now an extraordinary person, several times faster than ordinary people, and he was able to mix these two necessities smoothly.
Then it was time for the potion to be dispensed, and Charles took out a palm-sized tabby orchid and put it into the glassware along with the spiritual liquid
"Zi"
After a very slight sound, Charles sensed a faint fluctuation of spiritual power, and faint red spiritual power molecules also appeared in the spiritual power vision.
The tiger stripes on the tabby orchid page quickly dissipated, and more and more spiritual power molecules were activated from it, and gradually dissipated into the air.
Charles was suddenly a little nervous, a tabby orchid was worth ten suckers, that is, half a gold louis, and if he didn't grasp it well, it would turn into a mass of waste in a few seconds.
The preparation process of tabby powder, which is very simple, first use the spiritual liquid to analyze the spiritual power, and then choose the right time to solidify the spiritual power molecules with the curing solution, but this best time is the most unpredictable, and it is also the key factor affecting the efficacy of the medicine.
Charles had a full spiritual power vision, and when the spiritual power molecules were at their strongest, he poured the spiritual liquid in his hand into it.
"Zi"
A whole tabby orchid suddenly shattered and turned into a dot of powder, each bit of powder was crystal and very beautiful.
"Perfect!"
Charles snapped his fingers, a slight smug feeling in his heart.
But if anyone knew that a transcendent person would have such a reverse endowment as spiritual vision, and also use this endowment to prepare tabby powder, I don't know how helpless it would be.
It's nothing short of cheating.
