In front of the Bat Eye Clinic, two people waited at the door, one on the left and one on the right, waiting for Old Orr to arrive. "I have already made some progress. It won't be long before I can learn to make potions like you. Don't be so proud." The bored two people's eyes accidentally collided, and Jiusiti couldn't help but say. "Oh." Ivan replied casually. Not very satisfied with his answer, Jiusiti waved her fist at him, and her body trembled unconsciously. This attitude was what she disliked the most. She regarded the other party as a competitor, but the other party ignored her, which made people angry. After a while, Old Orr arrived. Jiusiti continued to do odd jobs, while Ivan came to the alchemy room to make potions. In front of the square table, Ivan took two ounces of red tung tree bark, clamped it with tweezers and placed it on the animal oil lamp to bake it evenly, so that its surface was carbonized, and then put it in a stone dish, and pounded it with a medicine stick until it became powder. He sniffed it closely, and there was a special fishy fragrance, which was undoubtedly very positive. Take 8 dried pieces of blue purple clam mucus and 1 ounce of dried beeswax, mix them together and pound them into powder, stir evenly.
Put the red tung bark powder in a glass dish, heat it on the fire, heat it until it is bright red and the fishy smell is thoroughly stimulated, then add the mixed powder a little bit, and drop a few drops of scorpion tail glue oil at the right time, stir continuously, and finally the powder will appear a red copper color. "It's done." Ivan muttered. When the powder cooled, he skillfully weighed it with a small scale, divided it into ten, and put it into ten small bottles. These are ten portions of medium-quality red tung hemostatic powder, one portion can be sold for 30 silver coins, and a total of 3 gold coins can be sold here, and the cost of medicinal materials is about 40 silver coins, which can make six or seven times the profit, and the interests involved are so high. Because it was a success, he could get 20% of the profit, which is about 50 silver coins, which is also a lot of money. If it fails, half of his medicinal material fee will be deducted. When he first started to refine red tung powder, he lost a lot of silver coins. This is the only medium-level prescription that Old Or taught him, and it is also the simplest among the medium-level prescriptions. The demand for red tung powder is average, and it only needs to be made three or four times a week. He spends most of his time making other lower-level potions or doing other odd jobs. "Come again." Ivan took the same materials and started to refine for the second time. As a result, the scorpion tail glue oil was not dripped well, and the color was uneven in the end. According to Old Or's requirements, the inferior hemostatic powder had to be thrown away. The third refining was successful. The fourth time was also successful. [Pharmacy Experience +1] [Pharmacy: lv2 (1br200)] When he took the red tung hemostatic powder down to cool it, an invisible hand touched a certain entrance in his brain, which made him fall into a state of clarity. In just a dozen seconds, he seemed to review the knowledge of medicinal materials he had learned in the past dozens of times, checked for omissions, and thought about the whole. He also refined the potion he had refined many times with high efficiency and corrected some of the minor omissions. 'It's really amazing! ’ Ivan came back to his senses and felt that he had improved his medicine refining by half a level, which was equivalent to saving several years of effort. He secretly praised it. The fifth time he refined the red tung powder, his movements were more familiar and light, and he was more confident. The refining was indeed successful, which undoubtedly proved that it was not his illusion just now.
In addition to the small wisdom light, he also gained a wisdom light that could last for 4 minutes. Including the level 1 wisdom light he had saved before, he planned to use it all to analyze the water vortex potion, but he was not in a hurry to use it. He was seeking another level 1 wisdom light, that is, the upgrade of linguistics. At the same time, he also needed to accumulate more gold coins to buy medicinal materials. … West of the city. Near the Hobson Library, Ivan came to visit a scholar one day. "Sir, who are you looking for?" He knocked on the iron doorbell outside the fence, and soon a bloated maid walked out of the villa. Ivan said, "I'm looking for the Halaya scholar to learn the language." The maid Aida understood, opened the door and welcomed him into the small garden in the front yard, led him into the living room of the villa, and brought him to a charming woman who looked to be in her thirties. "Madam, this gentleman is here to learn the language." Seeing the maid turn around and leave, Ivan introduced his purpose again: "Madam Gui'an, I am Ivan Marichatton, I came to visit the Halaya scholar, hoping to learn Gaoganda and other languages with him." The lady in front of him was dressed exquisitely and had a gentle face. The most conspicuous thing was her red lips, which looked like crystal clear agate, adding a unique charm to her. This must be a person who has been respected and raised for a long time. Mrs. Halaya motioned him to sit down, and her red lips opened slightly: "You should be looking for me. I am the only one teaching the language here, and my lover, the Halaya scholar, had an accident last year." Her voice was gentle, and after she finished speaking, a trace of sadness appeared on her face, which disappeared in the blink of an eye. Ivan saw it clearly, and it seemed that the information he had inquired was wrong, so he hurriedly said: "Sorry, if you don't mind, I am willing to learn the language from you." Mrs. Halaya said: "Of course, what language do you want to learn?" Ivan had a plan: "Learn the ancient language of Gaoganda first, and then consider other languages after you are proficient in Gaoganda." "A wise choice, then I will directly say that I have a request." "Please go ahead." "Six gold coins, the time limit is three months, I will arrange specific courses for you." Unlike what he had heard, Mrs. Haraya had her own conditions. The maximum time limit was three months, which meant that she would only teach for three months, and she would arrange a class every other day or two. A class would last two hours. The specific time was decided by Mrs. Haraya, and she would inform him after the previous class. Ivan agreed. The tuition fee almost emptied his pocket. He received a thick textbook - a Gaoganda dictionary, as well as a notebook, pen and ink, and started his first language class. "Madam, see you next time." "See you, don't forget that the time is two days later in the morning." Two hours later, Ivan said goodbye to this lady who lived a refined life. [Linguistics Experience +1] [Linguistics: lv0 (3br10)]
When the subject level is low, it is always easier to grow. After a class, he gained a little, which was much more relaxed and comfortable than when he was studying by himself. From that day on, Ivan's daily life added another item. He needed to memorize more Gaoganda words. Ten days later, Ivan entrusted Old Orr to buy medicinal herbs such as silverfish flower and radix radix for him. Old Orr did not refuse, nor did he say anything or give any instructions. At the Marichatton house, Padg looked at his brother in surprise as he was moving things home. "Brother Ivan, what are these?" "Just as you thought, I plan to set up a medicine room at home to facilitate my medicine making." Exploring the medicinal properties of the medicinal herbs related to the water vortex potion is a private job, and it is not convenient to carry out in Old Orr's medicine room. He simply bought a set of equipment from Old Orr on credit and took it home with the purchased medicinal herbs. "Don't worry, your brother knows his limits." Seeing Padg's hesitant look, Ivan gave his sister a reassuring smile, and his palm couldn't help but touch her fluffy brown hair. The water vortex potion is a medium-sized prescription, and the money required at the moment is undoubtedly huge, but he is confident that he can replace it successfully. Once the research is successful, he will have a wider channel for money, his own strength will also improve by leaps and bounds, and even the Marichatons can move up a level. "Ah!" The stunned Padge reacted, shyly dodged his palm, and looked at someone angrily. "Haha, look at you, you are still shy." "No." The two siblings played for a while, and with the help of Padge, they found a room near the backyard to use as a medicine room.
