Matthews' current challenge is the lack of magic stones. Without resources, he will not be able to carry out experiments, let alone start learning alchemy.

He found it difficult to concentrate on his studies after realizing that conducting drug experiments usually required a lot of money and it was difficult to see any obvious financial benefits in the early stages.

This dilemma of funding shortage is a common problem faced by many pharmacy apprentices, and lack of funds becomes the main obstacle in their path of pharmacy learning and research.

In fact, many apprentices are unable to continue for this reason and eventually have to give up. Considering the difficulty of becoming a pharmacist and the few who succeed, this is also one of the reasons why they lack the confidence to persist.

Master Fernando fully understood Matthews' situation because he himself had experienced similar challenges. As a member of a non-wizard family, he encountered many difficulties on the road of potion science, but it was his deep love for this subject that made him persist and eventually achieve success.

He understood that in the wizarding world, the scarcity of resources was a major test for individuals. Whether in the apprenticeship stage or after becoming a wizard, the abundance of resources determined whether a person could grow quickly and achieve success.

Wizards with abundant resources can more quickly master new knowledge, purchase rare materials, and conduct complex experiments, thereby making greater progress in the field of pharmacy. In contrast, wizards with scarce resources may stagnate because they cannot afford the high cost of learning or experiments.

In the wizarding world, the distribution of resources is extremely uneven. Most of the resources are concentrated in the hands of major wizarding organizations, while the remaining resources mostly fall into the pockets of wizarding families.

For apprentices who have no background, the resources they can obtain are very limited, and they often have to pay a huge price or even take great risks.

Although wizarding organizations follow the spirit of equal exchange and contract, wizarding families are more greedy. They tend to seek as much benefit as possible, and sometimes even resort to improper means to achieve their goals.

After pondering for a while, Master Fernando proposed to Matthews: "Given your background, resources must be severely scarce. If you can demonstrate excellent ability to handle medicinal materials, I would like to invite you to be my laboratory assistant and potion-making assistant, and give you corresponding compensation based on your performance."

He paused for a moment and added, "But I must remind you that I have extremely high requirements for the quality of the medicinal solution. Whether you can meet my standards depends on your performance."

Processing medicinal materials is a task that has strict requirements on personal ability. It not only tests carefulness, patience and responsibility, but also requires certain talents and skills.

The quality of the treatment will directly affect the success or failure of the experiment or the quality of the medicine. Especially for a master of medicine like Fernando, the materials he uses are extremely precious, so there is no room for error in the treatment process.

Matthews was filled with excitement and gratitude. No matter how high the instructor's requirements were, he would do his best to strive for them. Because, for him, this was undoubtedly a rare opportunity to learn how to prepare medicine.

Tears flashed in his eyes, and his gratitude was beyond words, because in this cruel wizard world, it was so rare and lucky to find a mentor who was like a family member. He thanked Master Fernando gratefully: "Master, thank you!"

Although Matthews is extremely mature and has been tortured and baptized by the modern social atmosphere for a long time, his gratitude at this moment is a true reflection of his heart, and it is really not something he pretends to be.

Master Fernando smiled gently and said to Matthews: "Okay, I have introduced you to the basics of pharmacy. Next, I will teach you some techniques and methods for processing medicinal materials." As he spoke, he took out a crystal ball from his wide robe sleeves.

Matthews witnessed this amazing sight again, and his curiosity could no longer be suppressed. He couldn't wait to ask Master Fernando how this was achieved.

The instructor's answer astonished him - it turned out to be a space prop called "space pocket". He showed this magical item to Matthews.

Matthews originally thought that this involved some kind of profound witchcraft, but he didn't expect it to be a space prop full of fantasy. The shock and excitement in his heart were intertwined. The wonders of this world far exceeded his imagination!

Master Fernando sensed Matthews' shock and curiosity, and patiently introduced him to the knowledge of space props in the wizarding world.

He explained that the space pocket was made of the skin of a magical creature called "Void Rat", and its price varied depending on the size of the internal capacity. In addition, he also mentioned more advanced space magic tools, which provided not only larger but also more stable spaces, and were treasures that wizards dreamed of.

After listening to mentor Fernando’s introduction, Matthews was eager to have a space pocket of his own to satisfy his desire to explore the unknown and facilitate daily life and travel.

Master Fernando only transmitted some basic knowledge of medicinal material processing to Matthews to prevent unnecessary damage to his spirit.

He encouraged Matthews to familiarize himself with and master the knowledge as soon as possible, put it into practice, and improve his medicinal material processing skills through continuous learning and practice.

After saying goodbye to his mentor, Matthews immediately began to prepare to learn the basics and realized that he needed to raise funds to purchase the medicinal materials needed for the experiment.

He understood that only through repeated practice could he truly master the various skills of medicinal material processing and gradually meet the requirements of mentor Fernando, thus becoming his mentor's right-hand man.
