Almighty Alchemist

In front of a small stall not far from the material market, a middle-aged man with the appearance of a butler, with a wisp of mustache, was engaged in a fierce bargaining with the skinny vendor owner.

"Three Kingwitters per plant, it can't be any cheaper, Mr. Gary." Xiao Tan said with a smile, his eyes narrowed into a small slit.

"Kiddy, I'm your regular customer now. I'll collect all these blue pearl grasses, two golden welts per plant." The middle-aged man with the appearance of a housekeeper said to the small vendor. It seemed that he was very familiar with the market here, and his tone of bidding was very firm.

"Oh, this is an impossible price, do you want me to go back and be whipped by my wife?"

"Come on, Kiddy, every time you get beaten by your wife, it's because you secretly took money to find your girlfriend. But don't try to take advantage of me to satisfy your lower body." The butler's tone was very disdainful. He knew all too well what these rat-like dealers were thinking. He must be planning to sell it for a higher price than his wife asked, so that he can spend his days and drinks.

The peddler saw that no one was paying attention, and sneaked over: "If you want, I can give you ten silver Wittes, how about it? After you go back, you can still give three gold Wittes, how about it?"

"No, no, you're bribing, Kiddy."

"Oh, Gary, you're just a housekeeper, there's no need to be so conscientious."

"That's why I was able to become a steward from a servant. Well, two kinwittes to a plant, I won't give you another one."

The thin and small vendor shook his head with a bitter face: "I know you don't believe it, Mr. Gary, but I really can't sell it at this price. You must know that the anti-aging potion is very popular now, and those noble ladies are buying it like crazy. Blue pearl grass is an essential material for making this potion. Even if you don't buy it, I don't have to worry that no one will buy it."

The housekeeper wanted to grab the bastard and beat him up.

In many cases, keeping the bottom line price of the other party does not mean success. Occasionally, the hot sales in the market will turn the buyer's market into a seller's market. Some material dealers are not worried that their products will not be sold, and they can wait for the price.

But buying materials at such a price means that the cost price of the medicine produced is already close to the sales price.

The problem is that he came late today, and the blue pearl grass is running out, and the vendors in other places also pay the same price. Damn Kitty, he's got money in his eyes, don't think about me taking care of his business in the future.

When he was in distress, a young voice suddenly sounded beside him:

"As far as I know, blue pearl grass is not a necessary material for making beauty-retaining potions."

Butler Gary turned his head abruptly, and he saw a well-dressed young man standing behind him.

On both sides of him, there are two beautiful and pleasant little girls by his side.

The peddler named Kidi was a little dissatisfied: "Hey, kid, don't make trouble here if you don't buy something."

The boy shrugged his shoulders and smiled at Gary: "It seems that someone doesn't want me to talk."

The housekeeper glanced at the peddler with disdain, and said to the boy: "It can be seen that you are a young man from a well-educated family. You are just a low-class person. You don't need to pay attention to him. I am very interested in what you just said. I think you are saying that there is something that can replace the blue pearl grass to make the beauty medicine?"

The other party made an elegant bow: "Many water-attribute magic plants of the same type can be replaced."

The peddler Kiddy on the side shouted in a sharp voice: "Mr. Gary, I don't think you told him that the Carmel family never produces medicines below the top grade."

The butler named Gary looked at Xiu Yi with a smile: "I'm sorry, sir, I can't adopt your suggestion."

Xiu Yi looked at the two beauties beside her, and still smiled brightly: "Take the essence of the middle part of a red ling tree, add two drops of Aruba lizard liquid to blend, and use it to replace the blue pearl grass, and you can make a high-quality beauty-level potion."

The housekeeper and the peddler looked at each other at the same time.

Gary looked at Xiu Yi in disbelief, thought for a while, and said, "Although I am not an alchemist, I have learned something about potion refining through my long-term procurement. It's strange that I have never heard of this method."

Xiu Yi spread his hands: "Alchemy pursues the laws of the operation of things, and the connections between all things are so complex, how could human beings be able to explore them? It must be the great alchemist Electra, and I dare not say that he has mastered the laws of operation of all things in this world. The ocean of knowledge is endless, and new discoveries are born every day. It is not uncommon for you not to have heard of it, but what is strange is that you don't even have the courage to try it... The combined price of these two things is less than 1 Gold Witte , it is much cheaper than blue pearl grass."

The butler held his chin with his right hand and thought for a while, then nodded and said, "You are right, sir, I am sorry for the suspicion I had just now. You must know that very few alchemists are willing to hand over their exclusive formula."

"Indeed, the reason why I am willing to tell you is because it is nothing in my opinion." Xiu Yi acted confidently.

He looks amazing with his confident face.

If Clarice was here, she would firmly believe that Xiu Yi was playing his trick again, but it was Daisy and Randy who were here at this moment.

Sometimes we have to admit that pretending to be cool in front of women is indeed a very effective behavior to attract hearts. Although Xiu Yi's purpose is not here, he did succeed in making the eyes of the two little girls show red hearts.

The butler named Gary thought for a while, nodded and said, "I will try to buy some and ask the alchemist in the family to try it."

Then he hurried away, ignoring the peddler's shouts.

The peddler Kiddy stared at Xiu Yi with vicious eyes: "Hey, boy, you ruined my business."

Lanti was about to retort, but was stopped by Xiuyi.

He casually threw a King Witt to Kiddy, then took out a pen and paper, wrote a few words on it and handed it to Kiddy, saying, "Don't worry, I can guarantee that he will come back to you to buy blue pearl grass. This note has my name and address on it. If you can disclose this information to the housekeeper in a more cryptic way, I will give you another King Witt. What do you think?"

The peddler Kiddy looked at Xiuyi in some confusion, then picked up the King Witt and shook it, nodded and said, "No problem, you troublemaker. If you don't give me that King Witt, I'll tell the housekeeper everything you've told me now. I'll tell him that you lied to him."

"Deal." Xiu Yi said calmly.

——————————————————————

"I thought the method you told him was correct." On the way back, Randy almost cried out.

"That is indeed the correct configuration method." Huey replied.

"Then why did the housekeeper come back to buy blue pearl grass?" Daisy asked in confusion.

"Because I only told him how to replace the blue pearl grass with other materials, but didn't tell him what method to use for post-processing. So he was doomed to fail."

"Oh! Fink, you're so bad!" the two girls cried out, covering their mouths at the same time.

"But I don't understand why you did this. Is it good for you to offend a family?" Daisy was a little worried for Xiuyi.

"Also, how do you know how to refine medicine?" Randy couldn't understand how Xiu Yi knew so much.

The two girls kept asking me every sentence.

Xiu Yi sighed and stopped. He looked at the two little girls and said softly: "Daisy, Randy, you are all good girls. But I can't stay in the song and dance troupe all the time. I have my own things to do, I mean... everyone should have something to pursue, right?"

Daisy looked at Xiu Yi in surprise: "You said you were leaving?"

Randy simply grabbed Xiu Yi: "No, Fink, you can't just leave like this."

Xiu Yi patted Randy's little hand: "Don't be nervous, I didn't say I was going to leave. I just want to get some things, but these things are not easy to get, and I need someone to help me."

The two girls breathed a sigh of relief.

Daisy asked: "Did you say you need help from nobles?"

"Yes."

"The butler Gary?"

"Yes."

The girl was completely confused: "But you just tricked him just now. If you told him the right way, he might come to thank you, but now..."

Xiuyi impatiently stopped the culture of the two of them: "Believe me, Daisy, and Lanti, this world is very complicated, not that simple. The big housekeeper of a family will not repay a passerby just because he kindly guides him with a few words. They are not gentlemen who will repay each favor. Although they are always well-educated and gentle in appearance, that doesn't mean anything. Satisfied, it's unrealistic."

"But you..."

"So if you want to attract the attention of a person or a family, sometimes it is much faster and easier to attract hatred than to attract gratitude."

The girls covered their mouths at the same time, their eyes widened: "Oh, my God, you mean..."

"Yes, if they don't prepare it in the correct way, then the beauty-preserving potion is not just a failure. The potion in the crucible will rush out like a roaring ocean wave..." Speaking of this, Xiu Yi grinned: "I know that most potion alchemists have bad habits. They always like to pile up all the materials they need to use, just for the convenience of holding them. When the potion in the crucible rushes out, I believe it will destroy a lot of materials, which will far exceed their expected loss."

"Oh no! Fink! That Butler Gary is going to kill you!" Ranty almost screamed.

She never thought that Xiu Yi's method of walking over confidently to teach others would turn out to be a method of harming others.

"Yes, if I can't tell them how to use these materials correctly, they might do that." Huey replied with a smile, and he gently put his arms around the two girls: "But don't worry, I won't die that easily. I just want to make sure that Gary butler will come to my door. After all, revenge is always easier and more motivated than revenge. Of course, his purpose is definitely not to express gratitude, but what does it matter? The important thing is that he will definitely come to me, and that's enough for me."

The two girls almost passed out.
