"It's not difficult to restart the potion business, we have the method of refining the elven plants, the recipe for the potion is in our own hands, as long as we find some experienced pharmacists, we can start processing the potion immediately, but the sale of the potion is a problem. ”

Kevin said.

"Didn't anyone buy our potions?"

Alan asked strangely, although he had been the owner of a bar and a shop, he had never been involved in sales over the years, and it was all handed over to Steven and Kevin, so he didn't know anything about sales.

"Someone buys. There are a lot of adventurers and middlemen in the ancient city of Aogu, but you know that we are making high-end potions, especially the batch of medicinal materials extracted from the trees of the Elven Forest, which are worth a thousand gold, if we only sell them to some adventurers, they will either reduce the price, or they will not be enough to support our sales. So the medicine had to be sold to the south, to the rich and noble. ”

"Is the old smuggling channel still there?"

"All the while, Steven has been maintaining a relationship with Robert and General Ford. But even if our medicines could be shipped to Higg, and even further south, it would be difficult to sell them without local distributors, and our people would have to set up roadside stalls and shout for drinks. ”

"You mean no one wants to work with us?"

Hearing Kevin's words, Allen's mind conjured up the scene of a strong man shirtless with a belt on the side of the street shouting and selling strong pills that cure all diseases, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

"Yes. The drug business in the south has always been monopolized by the Hepburn family, and we used to find partners in Higg, but this year the situation is particularly bad, the Hepburn family's power in Hig is expanding rapidly, and the small local distributors do not dare to do anything against them, even if we double their profit margins. ”

"I see. ”

Hearing Kevin say this, Alan finally understood the reason, the Holy See has now completely controlled Higg, and when the Higg conservative forces were still there, they dared to do something against the Hepburn family, but after the Gracys funeral incident, Higg's conservatives were almost uprooted, and even some remnants did not dare to stand up against the Hepburn family with the support of the Holy See at this time, which led to the previous smooth drug smuggling business becoming difficult to move forward.

"Allen, now we have two choices, either give the drug agents in the south higher profits and let them risk offending the Hepburn family for the gold coin choice, or sell it on the spot, but the price must be reduced by half. ”

Kevin picked up the rum that the servant had poured for him, took a sip, put down the glass and said helplessly.

"If the price is reduced, the price will be reduced!"

Since an expert in business like Kevin has nothing to do, Alan is of course helpless, but fortunately, even if the price is reduced by half, the pharmacy business is still very profitable, but just when he made an accurate decision, his heart suddenly moved: "Wait! Maybe we have another choice." ”

Alan suddenly remembered that Reinhardt, who had just left, had said that one of his important jobs in the ancient city of Augu was trade, and if he was willing to help, this matter might be solved.

"What choice?"

"Ask Yuss for help. ”

"Will Yuss help us?"

Kevin was well aware of the relationship between Yuss and Ogu, so he didn't think that the Yuss Empire would take this risk for the sake of the potion business.

"I'm not sure, but I can try, you wait a few days and I'll get back to you. ”

"Good!"

Kevin's furrowed brow relaxed a lot, he had always had confidence in Allen, and he knew that he must have a lot of confidence in saying this.

"Kevin, don't always be sad, I called you here today and have good news for you. I'm ready to restart my magic weapons business. ”

Restarting magic weapons was an impromptu decision for Allen, who realized that he might need not only a lot of potions, but also a lot of gold.

"Really, you're so busy right now..."

Both Kevin and Steven were thrilled to hear the news for the first time. They made their fortune from alchemy, but then Alan took the initiative to stop this most profitable business, and they knew the inside story very well, because alchemy's dependence on Alan was too great, and he couldn't go on without Allen, and Alan was thinking about preparing for retirement at that time, so they had to give up their dependence on the alchemy business. Although Alan is back now, but he has the dual position of chief archmage and mercenary group leader, not to mention the chief archmage, he has the obligation of alchemy, but the mercenary team leader's work is very busy, and it is impossible to spend time on boring and long alchemy, so they all thought that Allen's housekeeping skills would no longer be used to make money.

"Of course, after all, I'm a magician, and I'll leave the mercenary group to Bloom. ”

Allen's tone was very affirmative.

"Brother-in-law. This time you're going to craft a magic weapon or something else, such as an air-conditioning magic circle. ”

Steven asked curiously.

"The latter. But this time it can't go through the hands of the Hepburn family again. ”

Compared with magic weapons, the air-conditioned magic array only needs to be repeated to depict the same magic array, which is obviously more time-saving for Allen, and the role of the air-conditioned magic array is to improve the user's living conditions, which is much less burdensome than the magic weapon used for killing, otherwise who knows which day Allen's team will encounter an army using the magic weapon he made.

"The biggest user of the air-conditioned magic array is in the south, and with the current power of the Hepburn family in the south, if it is not through them, I am afraid it will be difficult to sell the magic array to the south. ”

Steven said. Compared with the north, the air-conditioned magic array is obviously more valuable to the southern family, so the price of the sale is also more expensive, but the logo of this thing is too clear, almost with the seal made by Allen, so in the case that the Hepburn family already has the right to act as an agent before, I am afraid that no one from the other agents will rush to intervene.

"Don't worry about that. We may be able to repeat the old trick, just like the original auction of magic weapons, auction the air conditioning magic array, directly skip the middleman's link, and sell the magic array to the nobles in the south, and the highest price will win. The Hepburn family could prevent merchants from making profits from agents, but it was impossible to prevent all the nobles and wealthy from personally sending people to purchase magic arrays. ”

Kevin pondered for a moment, and immediately came up with a feasible plan.

"Kevin's method is very good, you immediately prepare according to this, the first auction is scheduled for half a year later, and the specific amount will wait for me to inform you at that time. I'm going to meet with Oku-sama in the next two days and get some magic materials. ”

To build a magic array, you must have enough magic materials, but since Alan gave up the alchemy business, the store has stopped buying magic materials, and although Steven still has some inventory in his basement, the quantity is not large and not complete. There are two dragon corpses in Allen's hands that can be used as excellent materials, but that one is too wasteful to use to make an air-conditioned magic array, so Allen is ready to go directly to Holancest, he, the chief archmage, must always have some privileges and benefits, of course, he will not use these materials in vain, a certain percentage of profit sharing will definitely satisfy Holancest.
