In the alchemy workshop, workers from the **** family of Vest are continuously transporting a large number of medicinal herbs and raw materials, which is enough to meet the amount of 50,000 bottles of healing potions. Don't look at 50,000 bottles, it seems to be a lot, usually the free city alone consumes seven or eight thousand bottles of healing potions every day, and this is still a relatively stable situation, once there is a war, the consumption of various potions will instantly soar several times, not to mention that even if there is no war, some mercenary groups and the kingdom army will buy healing potions and reserve them as emergency supplies.

Know that the price of healing potions in peacetime is the same as the price in wartime!

In addition, in addition to healing potions, in the future, you can also introduce such things as detoxification, physical strengthening, mana recovery, Magic resistance and many other kinds of potions, healing potions should be regarded as the most basic products of potions, the potion market on the entire continent has always been hungry and thirsty and has not been saturated, not to mention the various eternal potions that can completely strengthen the body at one time, that kind of potion is already a priceless thing, as long as a pharmacist can mix a bottle, even the lowest purity of the wealth sold is enough for him to live comfortably for a lifetime.

As for the resurrection potion and life-prolonging potion, it is no longer something that wealth can describe, and sometimes I am afraid that it will have to resort to war.

Lelouch looked at the report given by the Frost Snow Elf Elf Apothecary Tangier and pondered, the monthly output of seven hundred bottles is not the highest output in the current workshop when the purity is all maintained at 80%, and when the sixteen elf apothecaries are further familiar with the workshop, it may not be a problem to exceed a thousand bottles per month. Not to mention that the workshop is large enough for fifty pharmacists to work at the same time.

"How do antidotes and other kinds of potions compare to healing potions?"

"Theoretically, the antidote and other kinds of pharmaceutical ingredients are more complicated, especially the antidote, although it is a universal type, but in the process of blending how to neutralize different toxins, the more you want to neutralize more and more powerful toxins, the more difficult and troublesome it is. Tangier replied professionally.

Lelouch also inquired about the market of pharmaceutical machines, and generally speaking, the use of therapeutic agents is undoubtedly the largest. Secondly, the market for antidotes is also very large, especially for some hunters, mercenaries and adventurers, who need to use antidotes once they encounter poisonous insects, poisonous snakes and some poisonous monsters during their travels. The rest of the potions will also involve specific users, for example, most of the people who use mana recovery potions are mages, although the amount of use is certainly not comparable to the healing potions, but the price of mana recovery potions is at least ten times more than that of healing potions. And as far as the consumer group is concerned, they will definitely not be stingy with that little money.

"I have to say that the pharmacy industry is really profitable. "Looking at the sales of the first batch of potions on the report and the estimated profits after the promotion of the second batch of 700 bottles of potions, even Lelouch, who is not very sensitive to money, has to sigh that the profits of this industry are simply terrible.

To be able to vacate such a large market for themselves to occupy is also to be grateful for the backwardness of the education system in this different world, there is no systematic training among pharmacists, many formulas are not passed on to pharmacists except for those that have been disclosed, and the lack of efficient assembly mode has not been able to rise in output, and pharmacists are blindly hoping to mix more advanced drugs and ignore the middle and lower markets, so the result is that the pharmaceutical market is now in a state of extreme hunger.

Beside Lelouxiu, wearing his trademark black trench coat, Sephiroth was holding a concocted bottle of healing potion. Through the bright red potion like blood, Sephiroth shook his head with a smile, put it down, and picked up another bottle of potion.

"What's the matter~ Are these potions problematic again?" asked Lelouch as he looked at Sephiroth's strange behavior.

"Hmph~ It's nothing┉┉"

Sephiroth looked at the potion and said without replying: "I'm just a little curious about this kind of thing, some of the techniques in my original world are somewhat similar but not exactly the same." ”

"If you've been thinking in a 'scientific' way, it's really unscientific. ”

"Unscientific!?ha~ Humans in ancient times still thought that rain and wind were unbelievable, but many unscientific things would become very scientific when they understood the principle. ”

"And what about the so-called 'gods' of this world?"

When he heard the word God, the corners of Sephiroth's mouth were slightly hooked and he replied with confidence: "It's just a higher-level life form, maybe one day I will become a member of 'God' in this world." ”

"Shall I praise you for your self-confidence?"

"I don't need it, I don't care what others say┉┉"

In Lelouch's eyes, Sephiroth is a rebellious man with courage and perseverance, as well as extreme self-confidence. But deep down, that self-confidence and strong will, once reversed, will make him the most formidable enemy.

After checking on the Finisher's condition, Lelouch and Sephiroth began to return to the Chamber of Commerce in a horse-drawn carriage, while Gus and Kenjiro were left behind. The fact that the workshop is ostensibly disguised as a warehouse doesn't mean you can rest easy, if the elven apothecary Tangier is in charge of running the entire workshop, Kenjiro and Gus are in charge of the safety of the workshop to avoid infiltration and sabotage, and now the two are also responsible for training the newly recruited guards.

On the way back to the Chamber of Commerce, Lelouch was still looking at the report, and the numbers outlined on it made Lelouch very satisfied. The profit of the potion is very large, no wonder Alisa will be the first to recommend herself to try to get a piece of the pie for her family's chamber of commerce, and now the workshop has not reached the level of full capacity, and the profits generated are already extraordinary, so in the future, it can really be described as making money every day.

"Do you make a lot of money?" asked Sephiroth, who was idle and bored.

Lu Luxiu put down the report and replied in a good mood: "More than I imagined, if the expected profit is achieved, then when it comes to expanding the Chamber of Commerce, we will not be worried about the lack of funds, but the shortage of manpower." ”

"Wealth always drives people crazy. But we didn't come to this city to make money, did we?"

"Yes, making money is for the purpose of establishing a base for transferring risk, if you really want to┉┉"

Halfway through his words, Lelouch was silent for a moment, because the carriage that was still moving suddenly stopped, according to the distance between the Silver Wing Chamber of Commerce and the workshop. The speed of the carriage has not yet returned to the Chamber of Commerce.

At this moment there was a gentle knocking sound in the carriage, and the coachman who opened the partition said in a frightened voice: "Your Excellency Lelouch, there are two carriages in front of us blocking our way. ”

Lelouch nodded: "Ah~ I know!"

The spiritual power of the giant dragon was not only the two carriages, but even the person who was ambushed on the side, Lu Luxiu, could sense it clearly, and the total number was more than twenty people.

After learning of the situation, Sephiroth grasped his sword: "It seems that it is my turn." ”

"Wait~ Let's take a look at the situation first, the other party just stopped us and didn't seem to have any intention of doing it. ”

"Waste of time. Intercepting halfway is not a sign of friendliness. ”

Sephiroth was a little disdainful, if he could, he would have a good fight, the small fight in the food club before couldn't be on the table at all, and his love knife hadn't seen blood in the real sense until now.

However, Lelouch was not interested in what Sephiroth was thinking, he got out of the carriage and looked at the sky Lelouch realized that he was indeed too late, and now it was almost late at night, and he set his eyes on the person who stopped him, and now only five people appeared in black dresses of uniform style and looked polite, if it weren't for the impolite behavior of intercepting in the middle of the night and in a secluded place. They are a bit like waiters who invite guests to a dinner party.

"Your Excellency Lelouch Lampeluki! We have a deal that we would like to talk to you about. ”

"If you really want to talk to me, you should have someone send me a letter, or send someone to inform me, instead of stopping my carriage in such a rude manner on the street. Lelouch said with a gentle smile unmoved by the situation in front of him.

The Black Rite attendant also said tepidly: "I'm sorry for today's behavior, but Your Excellency Lelouch, please, don't waste too much of our time!"

Looking at the other party's behavior, Lu Luxiu couldn't help but sneer: "Didn't your mother teach you one thing? Don't follow strangers at will, and you are also a dangerous person at first sight." ”

"I told Your Excellency Lelouch, don't waste too much of us┉┉"

"What can you do if I refuse? Kill me, or kidnap me? While there are places in Free City where lawlessness is true, this is the upper zone. It's a good idea to think about the consequences of doing such a thing. ”

The regulations of the upper districts of the free city are very strict, in order to maintain pressure on the lower districts. The conflicts between the merchants of the upper districts are rarely violent, which has prevented the upper districts from losing their binding force on the lower classes in the disorderly self-cannibalism, and usually the merchants of the upper districts will generally use commercial means to suppress each other, even if they really want to use some shady means, they will choose to do it outside the free city.

And now the opponent actually made a move directly in the upper area, which is already a foul in some ways.

Seeing that Lu Lu Xiu had a fearless attitude, the face of the black attendant became slightly gloomy: "It seems that Your Excellency Lu Lu Xiu knows a lot, but I also want to give you a word of advice." Never underestimate the essence of the city┉┉The law is always dead and the people are alive. ”

"Do you know what I read out of your words?"

Lelouxiu's gaze became extremely disdainful: "That's a bluff! The foundation of this city is strong, and it is also the city's, not yours, even the top three giants are separated from each other, and no one dares to say that this city has the final say!"

"Pay attention to your tone, Your Excellency Lelouch, we know that you are now a celebrity in the merchant circle, but don't be too presumptuous, many times there will be some unexpected situations. I don't think you want to see any accidents happen to your peerlessly beautiful sister, do you?"

Lelouxiu's face became a little ugly, because the other party had actually threatened him with his sister, although the 'sister' was not his real sister, but he still annoyed himself: "You are wasting my time, go back and tell your master, if you want to talk to me about things, follow normal etiquette." ”

After that, Lelouch didn't want to talk nonsense with them, but began to board the carriage.

"You will regret your choice today~ Your Excellency Lelouch!"

"I don't think so, but I think it's still necessary to show your strength in order to avoid more trouble in the future, Sephiroth can you stay with them for a while?"

Sephiroth, who had been talking for a long time, sneered: "I'm so happy! )
