"Hu..." The fat man kept smiling and watching Alice open the door and leave before he let out a secret breath.
He glanced at Lei Wen and quickly withdrew his gaze, and opened a very thick book on his own and looked very serious.
The hall became quiet for a moment.
"Hello, my name is Lei Wen, yes..."
"Yeah, I heard it just now. Are you a waiter who comes to learn alchemy?
My name is Allen, the vice president of the Future Association, and the intermediate alchemist.
Just now, I will ask you if you don’t know how to ask me. You are lucky. Follow me in the future and you will be a formal alchemist apprentice within a year." When Allen said this, he put his hands on his hips, looking very powerful, completely different from what he had just now.
To be honest, he is also a very genius alchemist, but he just met a monster.
"Uh..." Lei Wen looked at him speechlessly. It turns out that there is no tiger in the mountains, and monkeys can dominate the king...
"But it's so deserted here, why don't there be a single customer?" He was too lazy to explain and was very curious about this question.
"......Oh, there's nothing we can do. Our president is too picky. She said that our association only makes fine medicines and does not do ordinary business. When the association was just running, many alchemy suppliers found us, but she refused to supply ordinary medicines, which scared everyone away.
Several potion stores in Beifeng City all operate low-level potions, and most of the customers are hunters or ordinary knights. At most, they are witch hunters. Their requirements for potions are not that high-end, and they are enough to improve basic abilities or heal injuries.
Who would spend several times the price to buy a bottle of B-level or above healing potion? It would be good to increase the effect by up to 50%.
Although the president is an alchemist, he is stubborn in his work and lacks business acumen." Perhaps because Alan had not communicated with his peers for too long, he started to complain.
However, he soon realized that he was talking a little too much. You should know that Alice is a typical chick-hearted woman. If she knew that she thought this way, the problem would be very serious...
He covered his mouth and made a very gloomy expression and said, "...Don't tell the president what I said just now? Otherwise, if you look good, you will be with me in the future. Only Master Alice will not be patient instructing you."
"Well, don't worry, I forgot what you said just now." Lei Wen nodded slightly and made a thoughtful expression. Alice was so careful at such a young age, and she felt sad for him.
"Ha, very good, I like smart people like you.
In fact, it is not impossible for us to take the high-quality route. After all, potions cannot be used continuously for a long time, because the effect of using potions with the same attributes will be sharply reduced the second time. Therefore, high-quality potions are still quite popular.
It’s just that our generals lack understanding of the market. Beifeng City has not yet formed such high-end market demand. How can only a few customers maintain their expenses?
The most troublesome thing is that the association currently has no junior alchemist who is willing to make potions in batches. I think she is afraid of trouble, so she simply doesn't do it, right?
It is important to absorb talents at present.
Your name is Lei Wen, right? I think you very much...
Don’t question the great alchemy cause if you think that business is not good now.
This is definitely a job that can change your destiny and reach the peak of your life!
As long as you are willing to learn, the light is ahead!!
I will be responsible for teaching you well!”
Alan became more and more passionate as he spoke, and he patted his chest and promised.
He was so frustrated during this period that he finally had a younger brother to greet him. Beifeng City lacked foundation in alchemy, and it was difficult to recruit an apprentice. Everything had to be cultivated from scratch, which was impossible.
"Oh, thank you..." Lei Wen was really a little uncomfortable with him suddenly becoming so enthusiastic.
"So you decided??"
“What to decide??”
"Officially join our North Wind City Alchemy Association."
"Yeah, okay..." Lei Wen was here to learn, so it was normal to join.
"Ha, come on, I'll officially approve it if I sign a document from the drawer and slapped it on the table. It's the first time I've been using it after so long.
"By the way, there are 10 Golden Dragon's membership fees. The president must have made you prepare, right?" Seeing Lei Wen looking at the document seriously, he suddenly thought of this question.
Although Beifeng City lacks alchemy talents, if you really want to recruit people who are willing to learn, there will definitely be many people. However, the entry fee for 10 Golden Dragons is really sky-high for ordinary people, so the threshold has been greatly raised.
"Ah? I want ten golden dragons?" Lei Wen unconsciously touched his pocket. He had only so much wealth now. The Earl would give him a certain amount of money every month, but he was used to being too big and was already short of money just now.
The Golden Dragon is a high-end currency in the Kingdom of Ryan, and is actually a gold coin. Because there is a giant dragon pattern on the front, people are used to calling it the Golden Dragon.
The purchasing power of a golden dragon is quite high, and ordinary families rarely use it. It is at least 10,000 RMB or more, which is enough for a family of three to spend a month.
So 10 Golden Dragons just seem like a robbery.
"Yeah, that's right, ten golden dragons. This is the association's regulations, and I have no choice.
Actually, it's really cost-effective.
The association has small libraries that can provide books and materials, and experiments require materials and instruments. These are all cost money.
If there is no threshold at all, how can you reflect your enthusiasm for this industry?
Think about the cost of going to a professional alchemy academy, it's so cost-effective." Allen rubbed his hands gently and looked at him with a smile.
In order to fool Lei Wen in, he avoided the important things and said it very well.
In fact, joining an association and studying in school are completely different things.
The association recruits waiters, apprentice service personnel. Generally speaking, they don’t have much talent, and it’s good to become a junior alchemist at most. To put it bluntly, they are experts in chores, so how can they be compared with what they teach in professional schools?
The one who can stand out from the association waiters is a singular horn.
"...I only have one question. Can I learn to use the association's alchemy room and instruments?" Lei Wen could naturally hear that there must be many tricks in it, but he just wanted to find a place to practice to start refining the formula and doing tasks as soon as possible.
He could still take out 10 golden dragons.
"Yeah, of course it's OK. Now the entire association is only two of me and the president, but there are many of our alchemy rooms that you can use at will.
But in the early stage, any damage to the instrument will be compensated for the original price.
If you use it yourself, bring your own materials.” Allen doesn’t care about this requirement.
"Okay, I agree. Here are 10 golden dragons. Please take care of them in the future." Lei Wen didn't want to continue to worry about wasting time. Just join. You should know that the most professional alchemy room may be found here in Beifeng City, and he actually has no choice.
