Chapter 25: The First Pot of Gold (2-in-1)

Oh no.

That's too bad, isn't it?

Wood looked at the magic props here from beginning to end, and couldn't help but have a question in his heart, this strange store manager ...... How did you get to where you are today?

"Mr. Wood, let's have lunch first."

Wiz walked out of the back storeroom with two bowls, and placed one of the bowls in front of Wood.

Wood glanced at the pure white water, and the corners of his mouth moved slightly: "This is...... Rice? ”

"That's... After paying this month's rent......"

Wiz's pretty face suddenly turned red, and he muttered in a low voice: "There has been no income in the store, and everyone in the town gave me bean sprouts... I ate it all yesterday too. But the sugar water is very good, it can replenish energy and calories......"

In the end, under Wood's increasingly strange gaze, she couldn't say any more.

Indeed, the sugar in sugar water is one of the main sources of nutrition for the human body, and the consumption of the human body is maintained by the heat energy produced after the oxidation of the sugar, and about 70% of the energy required for human activities is supplied by sugar.

But after Wood lived for so long, it was the first time he had heard of sugar water for his food.

"I think ......"

Wood said very seriously: "It's still a brainless industry like an adventurer that only relies on hard work is more suitable for you." ”

"Nothing."

Wiz shook his head: "It's hard for adventurers to make money, but I signed a contract with a friend, so I have to earn a lot of money to help him build a dungeon." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Please, you're a little self-aware, okay?

Wood decisively ignored the product and continued to write the next sales plan in the notebook.

Now the top priority is to find a way to get rid of the pile of junk in the store first, and then think about how to make money.

Although he is just a part-time worker, the basic quality of a businessman makes Wood unable to sit back and watch the industry related to him continue to show losses......

A teleportation scroll with a purchase price of 100,000 yuan is easy to do, as long as it is sold to the Wangdu magic item shop at a price of a few thousand Eris cheaper, I think there should be a lot of demand for magic item shops.

But the rest of the strange goods have to be 'packaged'.

Wood picked up the sugar water next to him and took a sip, then stunned.

"What's going on with this sugar water?"

"Huh?"

Wiz, who was at the counter and didn't know what he was busy with, trotted over, looked at the sugar water, and couldn't help but change: "Ah, I'm really sorry, when I was just soaking in the water, I may have accidentally left my lich breath in the water, so I'll go and help you change a glass." ”

"Don't get me wrong."

Wood waved his hand, stopping Wiz's movements, "I don't blame you. Do you mean leaving the Lich's breath in the water will have this effect? ”

Just now, Wood clearly felt a cold feeling reaching his lungs, making the burning sensation of this summer day subside a little.

"Yes."

Wiz nodded, and said with some embarrassment: "I am the lich of the Immortal King, so I have a cold aura in myself, and this kind of thing will happen if you don't pay attention, or make the corpse that feels my breath turn into a zombie." ”

Good stuff.

Wood's eyes lit up and he asked, "Is there a problem with this ordinary person drinking?" ”

"Well, the elderly and children will have stomach problems when they drink it, and as for the adults...... If you are too weak, you may have a stomach problem, but it doesn't matter if you are an adventurer. ”

"If you were asked to make it, how long would it take to make a cup."

"Hmm... This can't be actively injected with breath, and it can only be continuously contaminated with the breath on my body, so it's a little difficult to make it. ”

"Continued contamination?"

Wood nodded, and then said, "You go find a brand, and you can make some money that can be used as a working capital first." ”

……

It's noon.

It's the hottest time of summer, and both stall owners and adventurers look for taverns and shades to brag and play cards, but at the mouth of the alley next to the main road there is a crowd of people.

"What's going on over there?"

"It seems that a poor shopkeeper has a new product in his shop."

"Then if there's anything to see, we can go and see the shopkeeper, there are not things we can afford."

"No, I heard that it's a new type of magic drink, and it costs only five thousand Eris for a bottle."

"Magic drink?"

Everyone was stunned, and they couldn't help but converge over there, if it was just an ordinary drink, the price would be too expensive, but once the word magic was brought in, it would be completely different.

When I came to the front, I saw a big sign standing at the mouth of the alley, which read:

"In the afternoon, the Wizz Magic Prop Shop will launch the latest magic drink made by our owner, the Mighty Drink, which can ward off the scorching heat and cold with just one bottle, and costs only five thousand Eris.

However, this drink is forbidden for the elderly and children, and it is also forbidden for individual adult men with empty bodies.

As the name suggests, it's a magic drink that only the physically strong can drink, and the only really strong men can bear.

I, Wizz, the owner of Wizz's magic prop shop, once again solemnly persuade everyone that only men who can make women happy and can make women feel a sense of security are qualified to drink this drink, and those who are weak do not try it at will, otherwise they will bear the consequences.

Due to the scarcity of materials, this drink is only available this afternoon. ”

There is a row of typography written on the sign, and in the lower right corner of the sign there is a horizontal line, and the back of the sign reads 'Real men only drink strong drinks, and the more you drink, the more men are'.

I looked at the font on the sign from beginning to end, and the eyes of all the men present shone with an inexplicable color.

……

"It's all there, it's all there, it's very sufficient, don't worry!"

Wood was collecting money while maintaining order, and there was a large crowd of people in the store, or rather, not only in the store, but also outside, and even people in the distance were constantly converging here.

Although the method is a bit old-fashioned, the effect is far beyond Wood's expectations.

However......

For the men of this town, Wood is becoming more and more desperate.

Because Wood could have guessed with his ass that the clichΓ© advertising slogan would have this effect simply because the 'hungry ghosts' wanted Wiz to see his manly side.

However, thanks to the charm of their own shopkeepers, hundreds of bottles were sold in just half an hour, because some people bought more than a dozen bottles in order to show how manly they were, and then began to drink them outside the store.

This is what is happening today.

"Is this magic drink really that good?"

"Of course, I just drank a bottle, it tasted sweet and delicious, and it felt cold to the bone."

"The one on the notice... Weakness or something...... Really? ”

"Really! You didn't even see it just now, but the thin man who sold fruit on the front street was still squatting in the toilet after taking a sip. Originally, I thought there was something wrong with the magic drink, but it turned out that Lawless, who specializes in slaughtering large creatures in the back street, couldn't even drink a few bottles. ”

"So amazing?"

"yes, the women here at the time were all flattering at Lawless, and I thought I could drink another hundred and eighty bottles with my body. What is like Wallace...... A few of them are like that, they can't drink two bottles, they don't know themselves at all, and they run here to be embarrassed. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Similar chatters rang out throughout the alley.

Wood handed over the last bottle of 'Strong Drink' on the counter, and then smiled slightly: "Please wait a minute, I'll go to the back and ask Boss Wizz how it is made, because it is made on site, so we are all selling while making it." ”

"Hurry up, hurry up, there are so many people waiting in the back."

"What's urging, didn't you hear what the new clerk said? This is all a magic drink made by the owner of Wiz, you think your daughter-in-law's footwashing water, say there is one. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Wood smiled slightly, opened the door to the storeroom, and walked inside.

In the deepest part of the storeroom, Wiz, who was sitting in a chair, raised his head and asked curiously, "Mr. Wood, is something going on outside?" I've been thinking it's noisy since I was just now. ”

As she spoke, she didn't stop moving, pouring water into the basin with the water magic of her subordinates with one hand, and picking up the empty bottle next to her with the other, filling it in the basin where her feet were soaking and placing it on the other side.

"Nothing."

With a one-handed move, Blood's ability to seal the box of 'drinks' with the cork was sealed, and then he took a box of empty bottles and placed them beside Wiz: "You can continue to wash your feet and fill water here." ”

"Hmm."

Wiz nodded.

"Hey, hey, hey~~"

Wood picked up the drink, and couldn't help but show a cheap smile on his face, and when he pushed the door open, the cheap smile on his face was all subdued.

"It's coming, it's coming, the latest magic drink made by the owner of Wiz."

"Materials are limited, so it's only available this afternoon, so pre-order as soon as possible! It's a blessing to be able to drink it! ”

……

After selling the last batch of 'strong drinks' and dispersing the rest of the crowd, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.

Originally, the drink was sold for the summer, but in the end it became a contest between men, and Wood didn't know the specifics, but the public toilets in Axel were already full, and there were many remote corners and clusters.

This made Wood regret a little, he had bought some toilet paper when he knew about it, and now he was cheaper in other stores.

"That's a lot of money?"

Wiz looked at the bags of gold coins piled up next to the counter, his eyes began to glow, and he said in amazement, "How did you do that?" ”

Wood ignored her and counted her earnings for the day.

A bottle of 5,000 Eris actually sold for 50 million, which means ...... A whole 10,000 bottles. Although before the sale, Wood thought that Axel's population base was extremely large and he should make a lot of money, so he bought 10,000 empty bottles with the idea that he would rather have more than be enough.

"I would have bought more if I had known."

After all, this is just a one-time deal, as long as someone mentions it tomorrow, Wiz will definitely understand what his bottle of footwash has been used for, no matter how stupid he is......

When Wiz found out, it was absolutely impossible to do it again.

"Remove a million and send it to the women who throw flattery at them; There is also an empty bottle of one hundred Eris, and this million is the money I paid for the empty bottle, and you can collect the rest of the money. Wood didn't answer Wiz's question and decisively changed the subject.

A woman who throws flattering eyes?

Wiz was a little puzzled, but then she left her behind, and said: "How can it be, this money is earned by you, Mr. Wood, how can you take so little......"

"Alright."

Wood waved his hand: "This money is the working capital we must use next, and I plan to pay off the rest of the arrears within this month." ”

"That's ......"

Wiz was about to nod, but then he was stunned: "Huh!! Pay it off in this month? ”

"Hmm."

Wood replied without raising his head, but his eyes were still on the purchase list: "How much are you going to sell this 'enhanced mire magic' scroll?" How much is in stock? ”

"Well, because of its own flaws, the purchase price is only 10,000 Eris, which can be said to be the cheapest in the magic scroll. So when I opened the store, I used the money I had saved as an adventurer to get 500 sheets. ”

Wiz said, a look of loss flashed across his face: "But except for the first dozen or so, no one has bought them since." ”

Know that there is a defect and you still buy it? If you want to take advantage of it, it will give me a little brain.

Wood really wanted to open this brain's brain to see if it was as rotten as a zombie.

"It seems that it is a bit difficult to sell all at once."

Wood really didn't want to talk nonsense with this thing, so he clicked on the purchase list with a pen and asked, "If I'm not mistaken, is there a rope magic in the low-level magic?" ”

"Well, there is indeed this magic."

Wiz nodded, the magic on his body rising, and he pointed forward with one hand.

"rope"

With a burst of light, a rope burst out of her cuff, tied up the table next to her, and said: "It's just that few people waste points on this, because the strength of this rope is not high, not to mention adventurers, even ordinary people with more strength can tear it." ”

Wood nodded, although the mages in this world are much weaker than the melee profession, but because of the relationship between the various values that can be increased by leveling, the mages are not the kind of helpless chickens in the world.

Take Megumi and Yoyo as examples, their strength is two or three times that of an ordinary adult strong man.

That's why Wiz said that there is no permanent place for adventurers.

But it also depends on where it's used.

"How much does a rope magic scroll cost?"

"Nobody sells this."

Wiz shook his head: "The price of a blank scroll is as high as eight thousand Eris, and if you want to fix a magic in the scroll, whether it is high-level magic or low-level magic, you need to inject the same amount of magic, so no one will do this kind of thankless task." ”

Wood frowned, this is a problem.

"Still, if it's just low-level magic, I can do it." Wiz thought for a moment.

"Can you do it?"

Wood looked at Wiz in surprise, making magic scrolls is very profitable, how could this thing be mixed up like this?

Wiz said with some embarrassment: "Because I think making magic scrolls is very profitable, I also studied for a while, but because my magic power is too large to accurately control the magic power, the failure rate of making scrolls is extremely high, so I gave up." But if it's just low-level magic, it's not a problem. ”

"That's fine!"

Wood nodded: "Tomorrow you go buy five hundred blank scrolls, and in the morning you just need to make the scrolls of the 'rope'." I have other classes to study in the morning, and then I go on assignments, and I come here about 1 p.m. ”

"Yes, Mr. Wood."

Wiez nodded convincingly, and then asked with a glint in his eyes: "But five hundred blank scrolls are only four million, anyway, they have to be restocked, why don't you use the remaining money to buy something else, I have been looking for a product that will definitely sell well for a long time......"

"If you dare to buy anything other than a blank scroll, I'll kill you!!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€
