Chapter 3: Start a small business
"But my father said that I can only participate in the industrial management of the territory after I am over the age of fourteen," Initially Galen's financial advice made Jiawen's eyes light up, but it soon dimmed, as a child, what can I do?
"You have to do this kind of thing yourself, if you want to rely on the master for everything, then your fate will always be in his hands. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info" said Galen, pulling out a small cloth bag from his pocket and shaking it in front of Gavin. "This is my income since I became a scholar for you, and I have only spent a small part of it, and the rest is stored here. ”
"Two silver coins?" Jia Wen took the cloth bag in Galen's hand and opened it, and was taken aback, why did a little scholar have so much money?
"If you're ambitious, I'm willing to take a stake in it and work with you. Galen felt himself speak with horns on his head and a small, pointed tail sticking out of the end of his spine.
"But what are we going to do?" Galen's real money gave Gavin confidence, but when he thought about it, he still didn't know what he should do.
"We can process some potions for sale," Galen said confidently, "Lord Arugao is the head of the Royal Apothecary Society here, and we, as his disciples, will definitely be able to meet the standards of the Association's acquisition." ”
Although he had some doubts about this question, as a child, Jiawen basically didn't think too deeply, so he was moved at once.
"Okay, so what do you say, Galen?" asked Gavin, already thinking about how much pocket money he had in his hand to invest.
"We didn't have much to invest in, first we went to the Pharmacists Association to buy their standard containers, and then we bought some herbs. As soon as Gavin asked about himself, Galen crossed his fingers and made arrangements. "As for the process of making potions, I think we can directly use the laboratory prepared for us by the master, so that we can save a lot of equipment costs, and we don't have to invest too much money. ”
Children are like this, once they talk about it, they can't stop, although they agree to Galen's request not to go to class, but Gavin still forcibly pulls him to help him count his wealth.
"Oh my God, Jiawen, you actually have a gold coin and sixty-four silver coins?" Jiawen's things were not very neatly arranged, especially after his mother died. So the two of them rummaged around in Jiawen's bedroom to find these piles of coins scattered under the table and in the corner.
"It's unfortunate, I remember that I have fifteen silver coins for my pocket money every month, and I have been ...... since I was three years old," Jia Wen stumbled at this point, and counted his fingers for a while before he came up with the answer, "There must be ten gold coins and eighty silver coins, but that's all there is left." ”
The value of the empire's currency is extremely simple in the decimal system, that is, one hundred copper is equivalent to one silver coin, and one hundred silver coins are equivalent to one gold coin.
"But this is good," said Galen, picking up a small necklace, although it was not a large size, but the chain was of sterling silver, and the cross of the necklace was sterling silver and gold, and there was a small ruby on it.
"This was given to me by my dad, and I've forgotten it there for a long time. After seeing the necklace of the cross, Gavin simply sat down and explained, obviously not taking him to heart.
"Then let's take this necklace as one," the money is not enough, and the jewelry is worth it. Galen already knew that he was Jazz's illegitimate son, but he didn't get any benefits, and naturally he didn't care about the inheritance of the Jazz family.
The loser Jiawen did not take the jewel seriously, and readily agreed to Galen's idea, and the two brothers went to the pawnshop in the town and gave the necklace twenty-five gold coins. Then they went to the reception of the Royal Apothecary Society without rest and bought ten sets of fifty coarse glass bottles, in addition to large bundles of swift grass, silver leaf grass and tranquil flowers.
This transaction was as much as eight gold coins, which was also a big deal for the entire Jazz Territory, so the traders were very concerned about whether these two young children were purchasing on behalf of the adults in the family.
"Children, you came out to buy so many things by yourself, can the adults at home rest assured?" A bunch of things filled two large backpacks, and it was not easy for Galen and Jiawen to carry them, so the sales staff of the association was very concerned and wanted to ask them if they wanted to provide delivery services.
"Hey, don't look down on people! I'm a ......" Jiawen was very dissatisfied with the contempt of the staff of the Pharmacists Association for him, so when he saw them asking, he immediately retorted dissatisfiedly without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, but Galen covered his mouth and dragged him out.
"Galen, why didn't you let me speak?" asked Gavin reproachfully after being dragged out of the Pharmacists' Association.
"Don't report your house at this time, wait until we have made something, and then let them know that there is someone behind us. With that, Galen pulled Gavin on his way home.
"Well, you're right, I'll be scared to death when the time comes. "Gavin is a silly boy-like existence, Galen fooled him twice, and he was immediately brainwashed successfully.
After returning home, the two brothers immediately started to operate, but as a scumbag who wrote the homework on behalf of the student, Jiawen was not able to solve these problems, and everything was led by Galen.
"Galen, I remember that's not what Mr. Arugao taught, right?" watched as Galen put the mortar into a large basin and poured water mixed with ice cubes into the basin. Rao is extremely scumbag, and he also knows that Arugao has not taught this matter, so he can't help but be suspicious of Galen's approach.
"During the grinding process, high temperatures are generated at the contact points of force, which causes the effective part of the drug to volatilize and reduce the efficacy of the drug. Galen said as he put the Tranquility Flower into the mortar and explained to Jiawen, "So I'm going to use ice water to lower the temperature around me, which will also ensure the preservation of the medicinal ingredients." ”
"Did Mr. Arugor talk about these things?" Listening to Galen's tirade, Jiawen instantly felt a sense of incomprehension. "Why am I not impressed?"
"Shall I tell you to read reference books when you do your homework?" said Galen, glancing at Garvin, angrily. Although his own practice is derived from his own knowledge of organic chemistry, Jiawen is too unlearned, has he really learned knowledge?
