Chapter 119: The Troubles of the Pharmacy

Before the store is rented out, the proceeds will be automatically mailed to the owner of the store at 8 a.m. the next morning. Of course, the owner of the store can also go and pick it up in advance. And the store doesn't just sell things, it also buys things automatically, which is much easier than some merchants who want to make the difference, and they make much more money than those merchants. After all, a merchant has limited space in his backpack, and if he stores his goods in a warehouse, it will be a hassle to buy and sell. In comparison, the store's storage space is limited, but it's not an order of magnitude compared to backpacks.

Xiao Peng's three shops are located on the avenue from the teleportation array in the center of Starry Night City to the gate of Starry Night City, and the flow of people is the largest, and these three stalls are connected together, so they can meet each other, and the business will definitely be very good in the future.

When he returned to the hotel with Cahill, it was already past three o'clock in the afternoon, and according to his previous habits, Xiao Peng should have returned to his room at this time to concentrate on refining medicine. But today, he didn't.

"Where are I going to get the intermediate potion formula?" Xiao Peng sat at the dinner table, thinking about this question. Now that you have learned the sub-profession of alchemy, you must raise the level of this sub-profession. And if you have been using the primary potion formula, the efficiency of increasing the experience of the alchemist is too low, and after the player reaches level 20, the intermediate blood recovery potion and the intermediate blue recovery potion can be used, the effect is double that of the primary potion, and the price is only doubled, which is definitely the first choice for players. At that time, the price of primary medicine will definitely drop.

Xiao Peng is not greedy, his purpose is not the two conventional potions that are used in the most amount, as long as he casually gives him an intermediate potion formula, so that he can quickly improve his alchemist experience, he will be thankful.

"Wait, I remember the owner of the pharmacy once said that there was something wrong with their potions, right? Why don't you give it a try, what if you give it an intermediate potion formula? Speaking of potion formulas, Xiao Peng first thought of the pharmacy store, and then recalled the words that the owner of the pharmacy had said to him when he was working as a sub-profession of alchemist. At that time, Xiao Peng's mind was almost all on refining the two primary elixirs, and because of this, he didn't dig deep into this matter, but now...... You can give it a try.

"Cahill, follow me." As soon as he thought of it, Xiao Peng stood up and ran outside the hotel.

"Wait a minute..... Cahill just came back to his senses when he saw that Xiao Peng had run out of the hotel and hurriedly chased after him.

.......................

Entering the pharmacy again, because almost all the players have deleted their numbers, the pharmacy can be said to be very depressed. However, whether it is the boss or the job in the pharmacy, there is no sign of worry, and think about it, after the real mode is opened, the system mastermind must have instilled a certain concept about players in these NPCs.

"Yo, mage, are you here to stock again?" Xiao Peng is a frequent customer of the pharmacy store, and the owner of the pharmacy store is still familiar with him, but now when he comes in, he thinks that he wants to buy those two medicinal materials again.

"No, boss, didn't you say before that there was a shortage of medicinal herbs in your store, can you tell me why? Perhaps, I can help. Xiao Peng shook his head and said very simply the purpose of his coming here.

"Hey, this matter, I have to start with Cole, I don't know what the reason is, in the past year or so, it has often happened that the goods have been snatched away by those monsters in the wild, some low-level medicinal materials are fine, if they are lost, they can also be made up for with other items, but those high-grade medicinal materials have no choice. Mage, if you really want to help me, go to Cole and ask why. The owner of the pharmacy said with a bitter face.

System prompt: Do you want to claim the quest 'Troubles at the Pharmacy'?

There was no hesitation, Xiao Peng chose yes.

Mission: Troubles in the Apothecary

Difficulty: Grade B

Description: The apothecary store is in short supply due to the frequent monster looting incidents during this time, young elven mage, go investigate why this happened.

Rewards: Depends on the completion of the mission.

"Don't worry, I'll look into it." After receiving the task he wanted, Xiao Peng left the pharmacy with Cahill.

Don't look at Xiao Peng so simply receiving the hidden task and thinking that triggering the hidden task is a very simple thing, first of all, Xiao Peng has been very familiar with the pharmacy owner during this time, and then Xiao Peng knows the plight of the pharmacy owner. These two points are indispensable. If you only know the boss's predicament and ask him the reason, the pharmacy owner will probably just be vague and send him away.

..................

Not far from the city gate, Cole, the head of the Chamber of Commerce, was counting the goods. Xiao Peng and Cahill walked over and stood in front of Cole.

"Huh? Both, do you have anything to do with me? Cole raised his head, looked at Xiao Peng and the others, and asked suspiciously. He's kind of dealing with players a lot, because in Starry Night, no matter what kind of job change, you have to talk to Cole.

"Mr. Cole, it's like this, the owner of the pharmacy told me that there have been cases of goods being stolen by demons recently, which has caused his medicinal reserves to be very scarce, so please let me investigate what the hell is going on. Please let me know what happened. Xiao Peng still said to Cole politely.

"Of course, I am obliged." Cole put the ledger down and nodded at Xiao Peng. To be reasonable, Cole, as the head of the Chamber of Commerce, absolutely wanted this matter to be properly resolved, because not only the people in the pharmacy had complained to him, but also to the alchemy, the blacksmith, the grocery store, and the like. But there was nothing he could do, after all, the thinking of monsters was not something he could understand. And now, someone took the initiative to ask about this matter and said that they would solve it, and Cole certainly knew everything and said everything.

Cole spoke for more than ten minutes and told Xiao Peng everything he knew.

"That's all I know, and the rest is up to you. Come on, Mage. After Cole finished cheering Xiao Peng, he picked up the ledger and continued to count the goods. He still has a lot of work to do.

"Thank you, Mr. Cole, I think I know what the whole thing is all about." Xiao Peng thanked Cole, and then led Cahill to the outside of Starry Night City.
