() The female shopkeeper with a nice voice always looks like she can’t get excited about anything. She eats an apple and becomes distracted again.
Quite a few of the potions on the shelves have no labels and are obviously privately prepared. However, with the existence of the encyclopedia Homer, the category and quality can be identified, and Downton does not have to worry about buying junk products.
"A quick-acting magic potion, a 50 ml bottle. After taking it, a first-level magic user in the soul of the Sky Demon can replenish one-third of the magic power within two seconds."
After listening to Homer's introduction, Downton took a test tube and looked at the light blue potion inside. He shook it and saw that there was no sediment, and then put a hundred potions into the box.
"Twenty bottles of powerful magic potion. According to the standards promulgated by the Royal Pharmacy Association, in the same volume, their effect should be ten times that of the quick-acting magic potion to meet the standard. However, the potions here are of high quality and should reach
Fifteen times."
The medicine box is naturally made specifically for holding medicines. It is lined with soft fabric and has a fixed frame, so you don't have to worry about the fragile medicine bottles breaking.
"Ten shadow potions that can increase running speed in a short period of time, thirty-five stone skin potions, elementary strength potions, well, I don't want this, the power effect of your Hercules' radiance is better, elementary agility
I need all the potions.”
Homer pointed and enjoyed shopping. After only half an hour, Downton filled six potion boxes and bought two-thirds of the potions.
"Sorry!" Downton put down the quick-acting healing potion, closed the lid, and walked to the counter to pay the bill with an embarrassed expression. Homer just said he would buy all the potions, but he failed to do so, which made him feel that he was bragging.
.
"You don't need to apologize, we are not such a narrow-minded woman." The female shopkeeper of Wolf and Spice remained as calm as ever, "Are you sure? I will accept the benefit of 167,500 gold coins, and I will erase the change for you.
Just treat it as a special treat for visiting our store for the first time.”
"Can I pay with gems?" Downton took out ten gems and placed them on the counter.
"Six apples are enough." The female shopkeeper didn't reach out to take it at all. She continued to bite the apple as if she didn't care, and the crisp sound echoed in the deserted pharmacy store.
"The rest is the deposit. I have reserved your next potion." Even without Homer's guidance, Downton would still pay the deposit in advance. After all, considering the quality of the potion, it is too cheap.
Even if Downton doesn't drink it himself, he will make a lot of money by reselling it.
"You're too slow, our medicine has been sold long ago."
Downton had a disappointed expression on his face, but he quickly concealed it. He originally thought that he was the only one who knew the secret of Wolf and Spice, but he didn't expect that someone had already arrived first.
"There are many smart people in this world." Homer was not surprised by this. When he saw that there were no high-end potions on the shelves, he had already guessed this possibility.
Looking at the lonely figure carrying the medicine box and about to walk out of the store, the female shopkeeper felt a little unbearable and suddenly spoke.
"Young man, you have a good sense. As a reward, we will prepare some improved new potions next time. Do you want to make a reservation?" The female shopkeeper's voice was full of natural flavor, like a big sister praising you.
Brother, give him something like a candy bar.
"Promise her!"
Before Downton could answer, Homer was already shaking slightly, reminding him that judging from the current quality of the potions, those improved potions must be very good. Besides, even if he was cheated, with Downton's current worth, he wouldn't care.
.
"Yes!" Downton nodded. He wanted to know the name of the female shopkeeper, but he really didn't know how to ask.
"Don't worry, I won't let you down. It's definitely an ultra-rare dragon-slaying potion!" After the female shopkeeper finished speaking, she closed her eyes and took a nap to recuperate for the upcoming journey.
Downton walked lightly, left the pharmacy, and led the Black Emperor out for a while. He couldn't help but look back.
"I don't know which guy is luckier than you and discovered the secret of wolves and spices." Homer was still sighing, but when he saw that Downton didn't notice at all, he sighed, "It's over, you've entered estrus early."
Bang, bang, Downton suddenly raised his hand and slapped it on his cheek. The burning pain awakened his dazed nerves.
"Am I under the spell of charm?" Downton opened the grimoire and wrote a question.
"Don't think too much and go buy supplies!" Homer doesn't intend to be a psychiatrist and explains Downton. He makes a list on the page and marks the necessary supplies.
"Four, olive oil, water, and charcoal for heating and making fires are enough for the residents of Chenwu Town for half a year. There are also huge reserves of armor, weapons, and magic stones. Are you planning to launch a small-scale war?
?”
Downton was shocked. Even though the war space of the grimoire had been opened, there was no need to fill it up.
"Humph, do you understand the sense of crisis? You must always prepare enough strategic materials so that you can survive even if you are trapped in a secret realm and cannot get out."
If it weren't for the small layout of Chenwu Town and the lack of goods, Homer could have given a more detailed list. The previous owner, however, stored in the war space enough for a small principality of 100,000 residents to use for five years.
materials.
However, with the death of its master, the grimoire was severely damaged, and there was no magic stone to maintain the war space. Over the past few thousand years, all the materials inside had rotted away, otherwise Downton could have made a fortune again.
"Buying up all the supplies in the town at once will definitely cause price and public unrest. Do you think I live too comfortably and want the security team to arrest me?"
Downton rejected Homer's proposal, and finally decided to buy enough supplies for five hundred people for three months after discussion.
"Forget it, let's work hard to collect souls and build portals in dungeons and towns as soon as possible. This will make it much safer!"
Homer is quite satisfied with the result, but Downton is still a rookie and needs to be trained slowly.
As the number one businessman in Chenwu Town, Grandet owns the five largest chain stores, so he is naturally Downton's first choice.
"Are you sure you're not playing tricks on me?" The fat Grandet squinted his eyes and looked at Downton.
He is worthy of being the greatest miser in the West. He is still wearing the same linen robe that cost only fifty copper coins when Downton saw him last time in the Golden Ivory Tavern.
Not only was the buttocks worn white, both elbows were even patched, making them extremely shabby.
"I can pay first!" Downton took out the gem and shook it to prove his purchasing power.
"It's not stolen goods, is it?" Grandet stretched out his thumb and scratched the neatly trimmed beard under his nose, his little eyes rolling around.
They all live in the same town, not to mention that their son still troubles Downton every day. How could Grandet not know this guy who works as a postman?
Downton didn't answer and turned around. After all, he was not the only shop in the town.
"Wait a minute, the deal is established." Grandet, like a toad, took a few steps with his short legs to catch up with Downton.
"30% off!" Downton bargained immediately.
"Absolutely not, my Goddess, I'm giving you the lowest price." Like a cat being stepped on, Grandet almost jumped up and asked him to reduce the price, which was more serious than killing him.
"Thirty percent off!" Downton was very persistent. With Grandet's stingy character, he would never give up such a big deal. Even if it was 50% off, he would still make a huge profit.
"I lost money and couldn't even afford underwear." Grandet cried and began to talk endlessly about how difficult it was to open these shops and how difficult it was to do business in the past few years.
"You go ahead and trick the undead!" Downton didn't bother to pay attention to him. Although this guy was stingy, he was famous for his business skills and talent for making money.
"Don't leave, let's discuss it again, 93% off?" Grandet seemed to see the yellow gold coins flying away, and quickly stopped Downton, "Come here and take a look, they are all antiques I have collected from various places. They are very...
valuable."
Grandet forcibly pulled Downton to the cedar shelves and pointed at the dazzling array of products. This was his usual method of using verbose words to stun his opponents, and by the way, sell more goods, and get discounts on the other hand.
Price difference.
"These items were dug out by adventurers from ancient ruins and various secret realms. They are of great collection value. If you meet a knowledgeable noble, you will definitely make a fortune." Grandet picked up a jade carving.
The leaves almost stuck into Tangton's eyes, "Look at how perfect the color of this jade is. Looking at the words on it, it's definitely an elf language. If it can be deciphered, it might be a dragon-slaying magic."
The Western Continent has hundreds of thousands of years of historical civilization. Wars, epidemics, and various disasters have caused many civilizations to constantly change, and many once-prosperous empires have been lost and annihilated.
Those ancient magics, martial arts, divine arts, and even technologies were naturally buried in the long river of history.
Downton's eyes ran across the shelves casually. These items were indeed full of ancient vicissitudes.
"A while ago, there was a drunkard in Di Du. He found a silver hip flask from a street stall. The inscription engraved on it was actually a magic spell from an ancient elf. Finally, it was sold to a warlock for two million at an auction.
I bought the gold coins at a sky-high price."
What Grandet said is true, but most of his goods are fake. He likes to collect antiques, but his taste is really poor.
"No interest, 30% off, forget it if you don't agree." Downton had never thought about getting rich overnight. He was about to turn around and leave when he noticed a slight vibration coming from the grimoire in his hand.
"Don't be anxious, we can discuss it slowly!" Grandet refused to let go. He picked up another snuff bottle and spat out his sales pitch.
"A guest is here, why don't you go and entertain him?" Downton pointed to the door. It had to be said that Grandet was really stingy to the extreme. Such a big grocery store was not even willing to hire a clerk.
"Just wait, don't leave." Grandet babbled and ran towards the guest.
"What's the matter?" Downton opened the grimoire and quickly wrote to ask.
"The statue at the bottom on the right side of the shelf, no matter what the price, you must buy it!" Homer only had time to display a line of words before Grandet ran back panting.
