Chapter 86 Ice Blue Potion

In the following time, Verin prepared the materials needed for the potion workshop while paying attention to whether the businessman Hook from Nankul Chamber of Commerce showed any other abnormal behavior.

Three days later, the first bottle of potion was prepared.

Weilin held it in his hand, looked at the light blue liquid in the bottle, and shook it gently.

Hook, the businessman of the Nankul Chamber of Commerce, stood aside, listening to Moira's explanation while staring at the potion in Verin's hand. Although the greed in his eyes was well hidden, Verin was still aware of it. .

"The growth environment of this potion plant is extremely harsh. I named it Ice Blue Grass. The potion in Weilin's hand is made from Ice Blue Grass and is called Ice Blue Potion."

Moira stopped, took the ice blue potion from Verin, and explained to the two of them in detail: "Ice blue potion has a very good hemostatic effect and can be used to heal any wound. The most important thing is that it It has ice properties, and when used for treatment, it has a numbing feeling and can relieve pain, which is incomparable to diluted holy water of life."

"So, Hook, how much do you think this ice-blue potion is worth?" Weilin looked at Hook with a smile, looking forward to his answer.

After some thought, Hook stared at the ice blue potion in Moira's hand and said, "I am willing to pay three gold coins for this potion, and our merchant will come to pick up the goods. All the expenses on the journey will be borne by us." bear."

"I'll think about it again."

Weilin did not give an answer immediately, and planned to hang Hook up until some time later.

The next day, Verin stepped up his surveillance of Hook to prevent him from passing on information to the outside world and causing an unpredictable crisis.

……

Time passed quickly, and another year slowly turned over, arriving on January 9722, in the glorious calendar.

[Three hundred kilometers west of the Lake of Prayer for Stars, a legendary mage walking in the star world will stay for ten days, taking your most precious treasures to trade with him, and you will get a lot of treasures. 】

Weilin, who was supervising the work in the potion preparation workshop, was suddenly stunned when he heard the news.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Moira looked at Weilin who was standing there and asked in confusion.

"No, no, I just thought of something." Verin smiled at Moira, and then said, "Go on."

Moira was a little surprised, but did not ask further questions, and continued: "To prepare ice blue grass from raw materials to finished potion, it needs to go through twelve processes. Each process needs to carve four to five magic circles, which requires a lot of magic. Materials, such as magic pearls, purple gold sand, black green wood, etc., will cost about 18,000 gold coins."

"Second, the energy supply method, either you recruit a few mages, or build an element pool, once and for all."

Verin thought for a while and asked: "Sister Moira, what are needed to build the element pool?"

"According to the size of your workshop, you need one high-level magic crystal as the eye of the elemental array, six intermediate-level magic crystals as assistance, and thirty low-level magic crystals as fuel to communicate with the elemental world and form a miniature elemental pool for The entire potion workshop supplies energy to drive the magic circle."

"That's it!"

Listening to Moira's offer, Verin fell into deep thought.

One high-level magic crystal is worth 80,000 gold coins, six mid-level magic crystals are worth 30,000 gold coins, and thirty low-level magic crystals are worth 12,000 gold coins.

If he wanted to solve the energy supply problem of the potion workshop once and for all, he would need to spend the equivalent of 122,000 gold coins.

According to Hook's previous valuation of the experimental product, the purchase price for a bottle of ice blue potion is three gold coins, and one ice blue grass can prepare two bottles of ice blue potion.

The No. 1 potion plantation can produce 6,000 ice blue grass plants per year. Together with the other five potion plantations, it can harvest 12,000 plants per year. Excluding accidental losses, it can also harvest 10,000 plants, which is equivalent to two Ten thousand bottles of ice blue potion, worth 60,000 gold coins.

"You can get your money back in three years at most, and make a profit in the fourth year."

Weilin murmured to himself, and the more he recited this data, the more excited he became.

Money, sixty thousand gold coins a year, made his little heart unbearable.

"Weilin, if you are inclined to build an elemental pool, you can apply for a loan from the Nankul Chamber of Commerce, and I can be your guarantor."

"No, Sister Moira, I can get all these things." Weilin suppressed his inner excitement and said calmly, "I'll trouble you next."

"Wha...what, you can actually take it out."

Seeing Moira's shocked expression, Verin said calmly: "Sister Moira, everyone has secrets, right?"

"I took the liberty."

As far as she knew, high-grade magic crystals had a price but no market. Apart from being circulated among the upper echelons of the kingdom, they almost never appeared in the hands of the lower nobles.

Even though Weilin was the son of Angus, she didn't believe that he would provide such aid to her son.

As for the 80,000 gold coins for a high-grade magic crystal that is widely circulated in the market, it is just a unilateral price set by the kingdom. If it is actually exchanged for gold coins, it may be tripled.

In other words, it was extremely offensive for her to ask.

Seeing that the atmosphere had become awkward, Verin immediately changed the subject and said, "Sister Moira, how long will it take you to complete the construction of the potion workshop."

"It will take about half a month. After all, it takes time to carve the magic circle."

It doesn't take long and is acceptable.

"Sister Moira, I will ask Baird to deliver what you want as soon as possible. I have some things to deal with after that. If you need anything, just ask him."

"kindness."

Later, Verin took Kyle away from Potion Plantation No. 1 and returned to the castle.

After arriving at the castle, Verin directly ordered Kyle: "Go and notify Baird to come, and then prepare dry food for ten days, and accompany me out in the afternoon."

"Lord, do you need other personnel to follow?" Kyle asked.

"No, it's just the two of us. The fewer people who know about this, the better."

"My subordinate understands."

After handing the red phosphorus horse to Kyle, Verin entered the castle, came to the study, took out the things Moira needed from his private vault, and put them into wooden boxes.

"dong dong"

"Come in."

Outside the study, Baird heard Weilin's voice, pushed open the wooden door, came to Weilin, and saluted respectfully: "My lord, you are looking for me."

"These are the things Moira needs. Send them to her."

"Whatever her needs are after that, I'll do everything possible to satisfy her."

"In addition, inform Orlando that they will hold a one-year summary meeting on January 15th."

“Finally, how’s the cultivation of sweetgrass going?”

"The juice production rate is not good. Either find a druid to cultivate it or give up."

"Okay, I'll make a decision after I'm done. Let's go ahead with the original plan."

"Yes."

Baird picked up the wooden box and left the study. To be safe, he planned to send it there himself.
