Almighty Alchemist

Chapter 6 Transactions (Part 1)

Before Xiuyi sold the potion, he borrowed five Gold Witts from Clarice, and bought himself a pretty good-looking outfit.

After putting on the new clothes, he looked like a noble boy. The investment made Clarice heartbroken.

The shop in front of me, in terms of interior decoration, is actually not much different from other shops. The cargo cabinets made of fragrant wood are scrubbed with clean water by the workers every day to keep them fragrant. There are various medicines in the medicine cabinet, and they will be marked with prices, functions, producers and precautions when using them, etc. The walls are covered with various swords and swords, some of which have been filled with magic, and some still retain the most basic functions. Rows of sharp halberds are planted beside the innermost wall, and there are seven or eight armors in a row at the door of the inner hall, each of which has a completely different style and charm.

There were not many people in the shop, there were two clerks, an old man, a middle-aged man dressed as an aristocrat, and a samurai. It seemed that they were guests who came to choose armor and weapons.

After entering the store, Xiu Yi saw a young man coming quickly in front of him.

He said to Huey and Clarice in a respectful tone: "Welcome to the shop, what service do you need?"

Xiu Yi said casually: "I just came to take a look. If there is any need, I will naturally tell you."

Clarice was a little surprised at Xiu Yi's attitude at the moment. Didn't he come in to sell medicine? But this woman is not stupid after all, she withdrew her surprised eyes, lowered her head and said nothing.

Xiu Yi strolled casually, and after observing the surrounding environment, he paid special attention to the pharmacy counter.

The prices of medicines on the counter are not consistent, some may need more than ten Gold Wittes to buy, and some only need a few Silver Wittes. Moreover, most of them are disposable medicines, and the whole bottle must be drunk to work.

In addition to the different reasons for cost, the most important reason is that their grades and functions are also different.

The potions in Fengming Continent are generally divided into five levels: low-grade, middle-grade, high-grade, high-quality and top-grade.

Most of the medicines sold in shops are in the low-grade to high-grade range, after all, ordinary people don't need high-end products. High-quality products are only sold in a few pharmacies.

As for the top grade, in fact, if you don't consider Purgatory Island, if you look at the entire continent, you can't find a few alchemists who can make it. If there are any in the shop, they are all put up as the treasure of the shop.

Even if Neil, who was killed by Xiu Yi, was only an apprentice on Purgatory Island, if he left this island, he would immediately become a top alchemist in medicine.

This is mainly because many alchemists have no chance to get in touch with those top-level materials, and how can they achieve anything if they have no theory and can't practice it?

Walking to a high-quality potion counter, Xiu Yi took out a bottle of Berserk potion, checked the color and gloss of the potion, and then uncorked the bottle and sniffed it.

The old man with gray beard and hair in the shop was slightly taken aback after seeing Xiu Yi's skillful movements.

The guy next to him came up and was about to introduce this bottle of medicine to Xiu Yi. Xiu Yi had already said: "It's a good medicine, it can last for at least half an hour after use, and the degree of weakness afterwards is not too strong, and the duration is relatively short."

The guy admired: "This customer is really amazing, this is exactly the characteristic of the potion made by our shop."

"But it's a pity that it doesn't perform better than other berserk potions in terms of increasing the power of berserk, right? The price is still too high for a hundred Goldwitts."

The guy was stunned and looked at the old man in the distance.

The old man came over.

He looked at Xiu Yi very carefully: "It seems that you are a guest with excellent eyesight. You are right. The rage potion we made here does not have a better performance in terms of amplification effect. But I can be sure that considering the time it can last and the degree of weakness it greatly reduces, this bottle of potion is definitely worthy of its high-quality evaluation. The price is absolutely reasonable."

"That's just your personal opinion." Huey replied.

The old man frowned in displeasure: "My guest, the rage potion achieves a short-term improvement effect by stimulating the potential in the human body. It has always been the pursuit of every rage potion maker to reduce its side effects as much as possible while maintaining the same improvement effect. As far as I know so far, there is basically no rage potion that is more effective than this bottle."

Xiu Yi raised his eyebrows, but said nothing. This action fell into the eyes of the old man, implying disdain.

Xiu Yi's speech is gentle and elegant, and his pronunciation is very clear, and the speed of speech is not fast, giving people a sense of stability. This is the standard behavior pattern of young noblemen, and judging from his behavior, this young man has a good etiquette upbringing. Although his tone is a bit loud, he is not annoying, so the old man bothered to explain.

His actions at this moment made the old man slightly unhappy, and suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and said: "Then, what advice do you have for this guest? I mean to listen to you, do you have a better potion than this?"

Maybe it was the boyish arrogance that played a role? The old man's provocative method produced obvious results, and the noble boy immediately said: "Oh, yes, I have a few bottles of medicine here, I think maybe you can take a look."

Clarice, who was on the sidelines, understood Xiu Yi's intentions.

Sure enough, the next moment Xiu Yi took out the potion for the old man, the old man's attention was immediately attracted by the three bottles of potion.

These three bottles of potions are "Rage Potion", "Immunity Potion" and "Healing Potion".

Judging from the clarity and transparency of the potions, it is obvious that these three bottles are top-quality potions. However, its medicinal properties cannot be completely determined from this aspect alone.

The old man said firmly: "I want to test."

"No problem." Xiu Yi said indifferently.

Of course, the test at the pharmacy can't be like an alchemist who can drink a bottle after refining it. If that's the case, the pharmacy doesn't have to do business anymore, and they can open a coffee shop instead.

The guy quickly took out a few test stones, and dropped a drop of potion from each of the three bottles on the white stones. The test stone will emit a special color and brightness according to the corresponding medicinal effect.

Just as Xiuyi expected, the three test stones shone brightly at this moment, which shocked everyone at once, even the nobleman and warrior who were choosing weapons and armor beside them were also attracted.

Even the most idiotic and unprofessional people can see the extraordinaryness of these three bottles of potions from this dazzling degree.

"Yes...it's the top grade..." the man said dumbfounded, his hands were shaking and he almost dropped the bottle of potion in his hand.

The old man looked at Xiu Yi in disbelief, and then looked at the medicines. He thought for a while and said, "I want to retest!"

For top-level pharmaceuticals, pharmacies will use various methods to conduct tests to re-determine their value, which is a normal behavior.

Xiuyi waved her hands indifferently, letting them toss about, and she was leisurely looking at the nearby products. I took out bottle after bottle of medicine casually to appreciate, analyze their medicinal properties, and make comparisons.

The results of the re-examination only further confirmed that the value of these medicines is indeed very expensive. After the old man had used all the testing methods, he finally confirmed: "These are indeed three bottles of top-notch potions. Compared with our potion, the side effects of your berserk potion are lower, but the berserk effect is more obvious... My guest, I am sorry for what I said earlier, your potion is much better than ours."

From this sentence, we can clearly see the demeanor and demeanor of an old-fashioned businessman. They did not deliberately slander the other party for their own reputation, but recognized the value of the other party's medicine.

In fact, none of the people who can possess the top-level potions are ordinary people, and the old man's obedience is completely deserved.

Xiu Yi said indifferently: "Then how much do you think my potion is worth?"

The old man replied immediately: "This bottle of berserk potion can be used twice and is worth 700 gold-witts. This bottle of magic immunity potion can only be used once and is worth 400 gold-witts. As for this bottle of healing potion, it can be used ten times and is worth 1,000 gold-witts."

An exclamation sounded in the pharmacy.

Clarice covered her lips with her little hand, and looked at Xiu Yi with disbelieving eyes.

Although after seeing Xiu Yi's previous performance, she was fully aware of what a stupid mistake she had made, but she still didn't expect that these three bottles of potions could be sold for 2,100 Goldwitts.

This is really unimaginable.

Clarice felt so regretful that she wanted to commit suicide. Damn, since when did I get so stupid?

Seeing her mournful expression, Xiu Yi just wanted to laugh, and the joy when the plot of revenge came to fruition rose in her heart.

—————————————

When Xiu Yi took back the three bottles of medicine, he clearly saw the corner of the old man's mouth twitching slightly.

Obviously, it is not so easy to come across a top-level potion. If you can have it, it will undoubtedly add more luster to your store. It's just that the old man was very hesitant, because he also noticed that the names of the producers on the three bottles of medicine had been torn off.

This means that the boy in front of him does not intend to announce who the producer is.

There is no way to know who made the potion, which is extremely detrimental to the shop. Because this is likely to mean that the source of the medicine is improper. Of course, for this kind of potion, shops are not absolutely unable to buy it, but they will keep the price extremely low. But for top-level pharmaceuticals, lowering the purchase price is undoubtedly tantamount to driving people away.

Huey didn't seem to care what the old man thought.

After turning around the pharmacy counter, he came to the wall of the shop again, and carefully watched the magic swords.

Armor with magical swords has always been the favorite of warriors.

They can lighten heavy armor and make ordinary longswords razor-sharp. However, enchanting weapons has always been a major problem for alchemists.

This problem is mainly reflected in the aspect of cost control.

Warriors are different from magicians. They are always on the front line. While striking the enemy, they also bear the fate of being attacked by the enemy. Whether it is a weapon or armor, it is extremely easy to be damaged in battle.

An enchanted weapon is not a symbol of invincibility, it just has an absolute advantage against ordinary weapons, but in the face of similar products, the effects of both sides will be offset. Therefore, a piece of enchanted armor made with great efforts and high cost is likely to be chopped up by the enemy in a single battle, and the damage caused will be extremely huge.

Even if the damage is not taken into consideration, this kind of weapon has a great advantage in terms of enchantment production.

Metal is inherently resistant to magic. Using armor made of fine metal, even if it is enchanted with the most precise magic circle, it is difficult to exert its full effect. And this kind of magic circle is extremely easy to be destroyed by external attacks. It is very likely that an ordinary attack will cause the enchantment to fail.

Therefore, the use of magic weapons is a love-hate attitude for the entire Fengming Continent.

A samurai without magic weapons will definitely suffer a big loss from a samurai with magic weapons, but if everyone uses such weapons, the result is likely to be a loss for both sides. Unless they are people with really more money than they can spend, warriors always choose as carefully as possible when choosing magic weapons.

The noble middle-aged man and the warrior in front of them obviously hesitated in this regard.

They had been standing here for a long time, until Xiu Yi came over, picked up one of the heavy swords and looked at it carefully.

When he saw Xiu Yi casually picking up the epee, the warrior next to him looked incomparably surprised.
