I really don't want to cross

Chapter 298 The First Pot of Gold (Two in One)

Too bad.

This situation must be too bad, right?
Wood looked at the magic props here from beginning to end, and couldn't help but have a question in his heart, how did this wonderful store manager...how did he survive until today?
"Mr. Wood, let's have lunch first."

Wiz came out from the warehouse behind with two bowls in hand, and then placed one of the bowls in front of Wood.

Wood glanced at the pure white water, and the corner of his mouth moved slightly: "This is... rice?"

"Well... After paying this month's rent..."

Wiz's pretty face blushed immediately, and he muttered softly, "The store has never had any income, and the bean sprouts that everyone in the town gave me...I ate them all yesterday. But the sugar water is very good, and it can replenish energy and calories... ..."

In the end, under Wood's increasingly weird eyes, she couldn't speak anymore.

Indeed, sugar in sugar water is one of the main sources of nutrition for the human body. The consumption of the human body is maintained by the heat energy generated by the oxidation of sugar. About 70% of the energy required for human activities is supplied by sugar.

But Wood has lived for so long, this is the first time he heard of relying on sugar water to satisfy his hunger.

"I think……"

Wood said seriously: "It's more suitable for you to be an adventurer who only relies on hard work and no brains."

"No way."

Wiz shook his head: "It's hard for adventurers to make money. I signed a contract with a friend, so I have to earn a lot of money to help him build dungeons."

"..."

Can you please be a little self-aware?
Wood decisively ignored this product and continued to write the next sales plan in the notebook.

The most urgent task now is to find a way to fool the pile of junk out of the store, and then think about how to make money.

Although he is only a part-time worker, but the basic qualities of a businessman make it impossible for Wood to sit back and watch the industries related to him continue to show losses...

A teleportation scroll with a purchase price of 10 yuan is easy to deal with, as long as it can be sold to Wangdu magic item shop at a price of several thousand erris, there should be a lot of demand for magic item shops.

But the rest of the wonderful products have to be 'packaged'.

Wood picked up the sugar water next to him and took a sip, then he was taken aback for a moment.

"What's the matter with this sugar water?"

"what?"

Wiz, who was busy at the counter, trotted over, looked at the sugar water, and couldn't help but change his expression: "Ah, I'm so sorry, I might have accidentally left my lich breath in the water when I was just soaking in it." It's in, I'll go and change it for you."

"Do not misunderstand."

Wood waved his hand and stopped Wiz's movement: "I don't blame you. Do you mean that leaving the lich's breath in the water can produce this effect?"

After taking the sip of water just now, Wood obviously felt a cold feeling that went straight to his heart, which made the burning sensation of this summer recede a little.

"Yes."

Wiz nodded, and said with some embarrassment: "I am the Lich of the Undead King, so I have a cold aura. If you don't pay attention, this kind of thing will happen, or the corpse that feels my aura will turn into a ghost." Become a zombie."

Good stuff.

Wood's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Will this ordinary person have any problems drinking?"

"Well, old people and children will have stomach problems if they drink alcohol. As for adults...if they are too weak, they may also have stomach problems, but it doesn't matter to adventurers."

"If you were to make it, how long would it take to make a cup."

"Well... this one can't take the initiative to inject breath, it can only be continuously contaminated with the breath of my body, it is a bit difficult to make it."

"Continuing contamination?"

Wood nodded, and then said: "You can find a brand, and it's better to earn some funds that can be used for turnover."

……

noon.

It was the hottest time of summer, and both the stall owners and adventurers would find some taverns and shaded places to brag and play cards at this time, but a group of people gathered at the alley beside the main road.

"What happened over there?"

"It seems that there is a new product in the store of the poor shopkeeper."

"Then there is nothing to see, we can also go to see the shopkeeper, the goods there are not what we can afford."

"No, I heard that it is a new type of magic drink, and a bottle only costs five thousand Eris."

"Magic drink?"

Everyone was stunned, and they couldn't help but gather over there. If it was just an ordinary drink, the price would be too expensive, but once the word "magic" was added, it would be completely different.

When I came closer, I saw a big sign standing at the entrance of the alley, which read:

"Wiz's magic tool store will launch the latest magic drink made by the owner of the store in the afternoon - the strong drink, only one bottle can drive away the severe heat and cold, and the price is only [-] Eris.

However, this drink is forbidden for the elderly and children to drink, and it is also forbidden for individual adult men with empty bodies to use it.

Just like the name of this drink, this is a magic drink that only physically strong people can drink, a drink that only truly strong men can bear.

I, Wiz, the owner of Wiz’s magic tool shop, once again solemnly persuade everyone that this drink is only eligible for drinking by men who can make women happy and feel safe. Please don’t try it if you are weak, or you will bear the consequences .

Due to the scarcity of materials, this drink will only be sold this afternoon. "

There is a row of typography on the signboard, and at the lower right corner of the signboard is a horizontal line, which says 'real men only drink strong drinks, the more you drink, the more man you become'. big characters.

After reading the font on the sign from the beginning to the end, all the men present had an inexplicable color in their eyes.

……

"There are all, there are enough, everyone, don't worry!"

Wood was collecting money while maintaining order, and a lot of people were crowded in the store, or not only in the store, but also outside the store, there was a huge crowd of people lined up, and there were even people gathering here from a distance. .

Although the method is a bit old-fashioned, the effect has far exceeded Wood's expectations.

however……

For the men in this town, Wood is getting more and more desperate.

Because Wood could guess with his ass, that the clichéd advert would have that effect, all because these 'porn-hungry ghosts' wanted Wiz to see his man side.

However, thanks to the charm of the shop owner, hundreds of bottles were sold in just half an hour, because some people buy dozens of bottles in order to show how manly they are, and then sell them outside the store. Started gurgling and drinking.

This also caused the current situation.

"Is this magic drink really that good?"

"Of course, I just drank a bottle. It tastes sweet and delicious, and it gives people a feeling of cooling to the bone."

"Is the...weakness...is it true or not?"

"Really! You didn't see it just now. The skinny man who sold fruit on the front street with his body ripped out, after taking a sip, is still squatting in the toilet. At first I thought there was something wrong with the magic drink, but it turned out The Lawless in the back street who specializes in slaughtering large creatures is fine even after a few bottles."

"So miraculous?"

"Yeah, those women present at that time were all winking at Lawless. I thought I could drink another hundred and eighty bottles with my body. It's not like Wallace... they drank two Bottles are not enough, I have no self-knowledge at all, and I am ashamed to come here."

"..."

Similar discussions sounded everywhere in the alley.

Wood handed out the last bottle of 'Strong Drink' at the counter, and then smiled slightly: "Please wait a moment, I will go to the back and ask the boss of Wiz how the production is going, because it is made on-site, so we all Selling while making."

"Hurry up, hurry up, there are so many people waiting behind."

"What's the reminder? Didn't you hear the new clerk? This is a magic drink made by the owner of Wiz himself. Do you think your wife's footwash water is there for you?"

"..."

Wood smiled slightly, opened the warehouse door and walked in.

In the deepest part of the warehouse, Wiz, who was sitting on a chair, raised his head and asked curiously, "Mr. Wood, what happened outside? It's been very noisy since just now."

While speaking, the movements of her hands did not stop. One hand used the low-level water-making magic to pour water into the basin, and the other hand picked up the empty bottle next to it, and then poured water into the basin where her feet were soaked. full, put it to the other side.

"It's nothing."

With one hand move, Wood sealed the box of 'drinks' with the cork, and then took another box of empty bottles and placed it next to Wiz: "You can continue to wash your feet and pour water here."

"Ah."

Wiz nodded.

"Hehehe~~"

Wood picked up the drink and couldn't help showing a smirk on his face, and the smirk on his face disappeared after he opened the door.

"Here we come, here we come, the latest magic drink made by the owner of Wiz."

"The materials are limited, so it will only be sold this afternoon, pre-order as soon as possible! It is a blessing to be able to drink it!"

……

After selling out the last batch of 'strong drink' and dispersing the rest of the crowd, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.

In the beginning, this drink was sold to relieve the summer heat, but in the end it turned into a contest between men. Wood didn't know the details, but Axel's public toilets were already full, and there were still many There are also groups in remote corners.

This made Wood feel a little regretful. He bought some toilet paper if he knew it earlier, but now it is cheaper than other stores.

"A lot of money?"

Wiz looked at the bags of gold coins piled up next to the counter, his eyes began to shine, and he asked in amazement, "How did you do it?"

Wood ignored her and counted today's income.

A bottle of 5000 Eris sold 1 million, that is to say... a total of [-] bottles.Although before the sale, Wood thought that Axel's population base was extremely large, and he should make a lot of money, so he bought [-] empty bottles with the idea that he would rather have leftovers than not have enough.

"I would have bought more if I knew it earlier."

After all, this is just a one-time sale. As long as someone mentions it tomorrow, no matter how stupid Wiz is, he will definitely understand what his bottles of footwashing water are being used for...

After Wiz knows, it is absolutely impossible to do it again.

"Remove 100 million and send it to those winking women; there is also an empty bottle of 100 Eris, this [-] million is the money I bought the empty bottle, and you take care of the rest." Wood did not answer Wiz question, and decisively changed the subject.

A winking woman?

Wiz was a little puzzled, but she immediately put it behind her and said, "How can that be, you earned all the money, Mr. Wood, how can you get so little..."

"okay."

Wood waved his hand: "These money is the working capital we must use next, and I plan to pay off all the remaining arrears within this month."

"Is that so..."

Wiz was ready to nod, but then he was stunned: "Hey!!! Pay it off within this month?"

"Ah."

Wood replied without raising his head, but his eyes were still on the purchase list: "How much are you going to sell for the scroll of 'Enhanced Mire Magic'? How much stock do you have?"

"This one, because of its own defects, the purchase price is only [-] Eris, which can be said to be the cheapest among magic scrolls. So when I opened the store, I used the money I saved when I was an adventurer to collect five Hundreds."

After Wiz finished speaking, a look of disappointment flashed across his face: "But apart from selling a dozen copies at the beginning, no one bought them after that."

You know it's defective and you still buy it?If you want to take advantage of it, give me some brains.

Wood really wanted to open this guy's brain to see if it was as rotten as a zombie.

"It seems that it is difficult to sell it all at once."

Wood really didn't want to talk nonsense with this guy, so he clicked on the purchase list with a pen and asked, "If I remember correctly, is there a rope (rope) magic in low-level magic?"

"Well, there is indeed this magic."

Wiz nodded, his magic power rose, and he pointed forward with one hand.

"rope"

Following a flash of light, a rope sprang out from her cuff, and tied up the table beside her straightly, saying: "It's just that few people will waste points on this, because the strength of this rope is not high. Not to mention adventurers, even ordinary people with stronger strength can tear it apart."

Wood nodded. Although mages in this world are much weaker than melee professions in terms of physical fitness, due to the fact that upgrading can increase various values, mages are not as powerless as in the novel.

Take Huihui and Yoyo as an example, their strength is equivalent to two or three times that of ordinary adult strong men.

That's why Wiz said that there is no permanent place for adventurers.

But that also depends on where it is used.

"How much is a rope magic scroll?"

"No one is selling this."

Wiz shook his head: "The price of a blank scroll is as high as [-] Eris, and if you want to fix a spell in the scroll, no matter whether it is high-level magic or low-level magic, you need to inject the same amount of magic power, so this kind of thankless thing is No one will do it."

Wood frowned, this is troublesome.

"However, if it's just low-level magic, I can do it." Wiz thought for a while.

"Can you do it?"

Wood looked at Wiz in surprise. Making magic scrolls is very profitable. How could this stuff be mixed up like this?
Wiz said with some embarrassment: "Because I think making magic scrolls is very profitable, I also studied for a while, but because my magic power is too large and I can't control the magic power accurately, so the failure rate of making scrolls is extremely high, so I gave up. Yes. But if it’s just low-level magic, there’s nothing wrong with it.”

"That's fine!"

Wood nodded: "Go and buy five hundred blank scrolls tomorrow. You only need to make the 'rope' scrolls in the morning. I have other lessons to learn in the morning, and then I will go on a mission. I will come here at about one o'clock in the afternoon."

"Yes, Mr. Wood."

Wiz nodded in conviction, and then asked with bright eyes: "But the five hundred blank scrolls are only 400 million, anyway, we need to buy them, why don't we use the remaining money to buy something else, I think One of the products that will definitely sell well for a long time..."

"If you dare to buy anything other than blank scrolls, I'll kill you!!"

"..."
