After pouring the medicine formed in the beaker into the test tube, Byron walked out of the experimental table as he spoke. After several hours of continuous work, even he could not maintain his condition all the time. His face was obviously tired at this time.
On the experimental table, there are more than ten light blue [Magic Potions] neatly placed.
"Today's results are good. Out of thirteen rounds of potion preparation, only two failed, and the remaining eleven were successful."
Although his body was tired, Byron was in a good mood. He patted Enzo on the shoulder and said, "It seems that letting you be my experimental assistant is a right choice. You know, I usually prepare potions independently for up to ten times in a morning."
times, and there is a 30% failure rate!”
Enzo smiled modestly and remained silent, but he was thinking secretly in his heart.
"It takes half a day to complete 13 rounds of potion preparation, and the materials consumed are about 15 magic stones."
"Excluding two failures, a total of 11 [magic potions] were successfully refined, and each potion is worth 5 magic stones. If sold in a store, you can get at least 55 magic stones."
"The cost was 15 magic stones, but the profit was 55 magic stones. In just half a day, the profit was quadrupled!"
"However, this is only the most basic [magic potion]. If it is a more advanced potion, the profit will be higher. No wonder Byron can cooperate with Lilith's cabin. Refining the magic potion is indeed a huge profit!"
Enzo's eyes flickered, and his heart felt hot.
"I have recorded the entire experimental process just now with the chip, which can be viewed at any time. Moreover, the chip's analysis function can also find out the reasons for the two failures and obtain the most correct configuration process."
"It won't take long before I can master the [Magic Potion]!"
For Enzo, in addition to the salary of 5 magic stones per week, the biggest benefit of serving as Byron's experimental assistant is that in the process of cooperating with the experiment, he can acquire some magic potion knowledge that cannot be described in books.
"It's getting late, you should go back and rest first."
After putting away the eleven [magic potions] on the experimental table, Byron said to Enzo that he also needed to rest after working for several hours.
"Then I'll go back first, Senior Byron." Enzo nodded and left the laboratory.
"I'm really lucky to have such an excellent assistant." After Enzo left, Byron's eyes flashed and he murmured to himself, "Perhaps I should consider starting the research and development of new potions from scratch.
Already..."
...
Along the path paved with black stone slabs, Enzo headed towards the bedroom.
"While taking advantage of the opportunity to be Byron's assistant, I must master as much potion knowledge as possible."
While walking with his head down, Enzo thought silently in his heart.
"With the recording function of the chip, I can understand Byron's experimental process in detail. It should not take long before I can master the formulas and production methods of some basic potions."
"Hey, friend!" Enzo was walking with his head down when he suddenly heard a voice.
He raised his head and saw a bent-over apprentice in gray robe walking towards him.
He is short in stature, has the head of a deer, and has the eyes of a rat. The way he walks while rubbing his hands is a bit funny. If it weren't for the status medal he wears on his chest, he might be mistaken for a clown in the circus.
"Is something wrong?" Enzo asked confused, but he didn't know the other person.
"Hey, let me introduce myself first. My name is Bartucci. My friends all call me Mouse." Bartucci tried to straighten his back, rubbed his hands and said with a smile, "I see you just came out of Senior Byron's laboratory.
Could it be his assistant?"
"Yeah, what's the problem?" Enzo raised his eyebrows.
"Senior Byron has been looking for an assistant for two months." Bartucci's eyes flashed, and a chrysanthemum-like smile appeared on his face, but he looked a bit wretched, "Senior Byron has always been picky about assistants.
After passing his test, my friend must also be a potion genius!"
Enzo had no expression on his face, staring at Bartucci who was smiling.
"Hehe, that's it." Bartucci was a little embarrassed by being stared at, but he still said with a flattering smile: "I have admired Senior Byron for a long time. I heard that he is refining potions recently. I don't know if he has any plans to sell it.
, I promise to give you a satisfactory price!”
"Oh, you're thinking too much." Enzo rolled his eyes speechlessly.
Are you kidding? Byron is a potion genius. Once the potions he refines are sold, they will be robbed immediately. Lilith's cabin paid an unknown price to obtain the right to sell them.
"Uh, friend, please help me." Bartucci said with a shrewd look on his face, "As long as you can get the magic potion refined by Byron, even the most common [magic potion], I will
Everyone is willing to buy it at a high price!"
"I'll think about it." Enzo waved his hand perfunctorily.
"Okay then, please get this address." Bartucci didn't give up and forced a map to Enzo and said, "In the forest outside the college, there is a market. I have always been there. If you
If you can get the magic potion, you can come to me at any time."
Enzo opened the map and found an area marked on it, which seemed to be a black market similar to a camp.
"Then I won't disturb my friends. Goodbye." Bartucci waved his hand after handing the map to Enzo.
"Wait a minute." Enzo suddenly stopped him.
"What's wrong, friend?" Bartucci's eyes lit up and he quickly stopped.
"Since you are a businessman on the black market, is there any way to get a set of potion equipment?" Enzo's eyes flashed and he said, "It would be better if I could get some cheap potion materials."
"Potion equipment?" Bartucci lowered his head and thought for a moment, then hesitantly said, "I happen to have a set of potion equipment in my hand, but it's second-hand, and its functions are a bit backward."
"How much?" Enzo's eyes lit up.
Sooner or later, he will start refining the potion. The equipment problem must be solved as soon as possible, and the materials must be prepared in advance. If he can find a long-term supply channel, he can save a lot of things.
"That set of equipment has been in my hands for a while, and I have never sold it to anyone else." Bartucci's eyes dodge slightly, with a cunning look on his face, and said, "If you want it, then give me 18 magic coins."
A stone will do."
"18 magic stones? Are you sure!" Enzo said with a faint smile.
The potion equipment sold in the store is usually worth 20 magic stones per set. As for the second-hand equipment, the maximum is no more than 15 magic stones. Bartucci gave the price of 18 magic stones, obviously thinking that Enzo did not understand the market.
"Uh... Actually, 15 magic stones are fine." Bartucci smiled awkwardly, rubbed his hands and tried, "How about 12? If it doesn't work, 10 magic stones are fine."
Enzo shrugged, still shaking his head.
"Forget it, then you give me 5 magic stones." Bartucci seemed to feel a little pain in his body, gritted his teeth and said, "To be honest, that set of equipment is indeed a bit backward, otherwise it would have been sold long ago, so you give me 5
A magic stone, let’s just make friends.”
"Okay, when will the transaction be made?" Enzo nodded.
"Next week, I have to leave the academy to purchase a batch of materials." Bartucci thought for a while and said, "When I come back, I will send you the set of equipment."
"No problem." The deal was reached and the two separated.
