Starting Life as a Baron

"What?! Your lord, you asked me to prepare a thousand potions by myself??"

A few days later, Nick looked at the handsome young lord in front of him with a bewildered expression.

According to Alan's strong request, Nick has been thrown in the bucket several times by the maids and washed thoroughly, completely eliminating his sloppy appearance and amazingly unbearable sour odor.

In fact, Nick is a totally attractive man when it comes to taking care of his personal hygiene.

However, this man was staring at his lord in disbelief at the moment.

"Well, it seems that it is indeed a bit difficult for a strong man?"

Alan touched his chin and said.

"It's more than a strong man! 35

Nick protested loudly.

"My lord, I can make up to 200 potions in one day. This is because I put all my energy and time into making potions."

"As a matter of fact, the amount of potions I can actually make in a day is about a hundred potions! And a Bronze Knight needs a primary potion, calculated as one potion a day, and a thousand potions a day!

"And according to your consciousness, lord, each person has three potions? The amount of potions has reached 3,000 potions in one day!

"My God, only the knights of the Duke of Ryan's court have this treatment, right?!

Nick's words made Alan feel a little embarrassed. Indeed, in general, it is normal for a member of the Count's Knights to get a quota of one potion a week.

You must know how expensive the potion is, not only because of the scarcity of potions, but also because of the expensiveness of magic plants.

Think about it, for every acre of magical plants spawned by the spirit of nature, you can buy about 5,000 to 7,000 gold coins.

It's still raw material!

Each acre of magic plants can make two or three hundred primary potions, and primary potions require two kinds of magic plants, that is to say, the cost of each primary potion is 50 to 70 gold coins. between!

And after being processed by a potionist, the price of a potion is between one hundred and fifty gold coins to two hundred gold coins!

A potion is so expensive, let alone a large batch of potions needed by a large group of knights?

Take Earl Albert as an example. The Lord Earl's Knights of Thorns Flowers is allocated according to the quota that one member gets a potion every week.

The number of his Thorns Flower Knights is about 500 people.

In other words, he needs at least 500 primary potions a week.

A month, that's 2,000 sticks.

One piece is calculated at a minimum price of one hundred and fifty gold coins.

One month is 300,000 gold coins!

This is a very scary number!

Of course, as an earl, he has fairies and the spirit of nature.

These spirits of nature are enough for him to support his knights, at most, to buy a batch of potions occasionally.

This is also why only a large noble like the Count who owns a large territory is qualified and has the strength to train the Knights.

The cost of potions alone is not something that everyone can afford.

This is still a weekly quota.

And Alan actually wanted each knight to get a quota of three potions a day.

One day is three thousand, and one month is nearly 100,000 primary potions!

At least 15 million gold coins a month!

Just thinking about Nick makes my mouth dry!

Is this what an earl should think about?

I don't know, I thought you were the Grand Duke!

So arrogant!

"The raw materials for magic medicine are actually not difficult. I have more than ten fairies now, and the current spirits of nature are also evolving one after another. Each fairy can spawn ten acres of magical plants. Now in my territory There are more than 100 acres of magical plants. If you convert it, you can make more than 10,000 magical medicines in about a month.

"It's 90,000 pieces short. If I didn't have the Holy Fairy Lucy, I really couldn't be so arrogant, but with the Holy Fairy, the magical plants don't have to worry me at all."

The Holy Fairy can be spawned by the spirit of nature, or the magical power plants of the fairies. One magical power plant is not to mention ten ordinary magical power plants, even fifty or one hundred plants are not a problem at all.

Although there are still so many acres of land, with the Holy Fairy, the output can be flexibly adjusted according to Alan's will, so there is no need to worry about the number of magic plants.

"There is absolutely no problem with self-sufficiency, the problem is that there are not enough people.

Alan sighed slightly. What he lacked was not raw materials, but talents, a potionist.

"My lord, you need to recruit some potions now."

Nick showed a sigh of relief, not long ago, he was enough alone, after all, Alan's territory was only Rose Town at that time.

But now, he can't.

"Yes, I need some junior potions. Well, I also need a few intermediate potions, and you. Nick, I hope you'd better be promoted to senior potions during this time."

Alan said that he got up from the sofa, he was in Nick's small three-story castle at the moment, and now he needs to go back and arrange for the recruitment of potions...

"My lord, in fact, I know some potions. If the lord needs it, I can try to call them over. In fact, I want them to come to the Heavenly Wolf for a long time, but I haven't had time to talk to the lord about this."

Nick gave an expectant smile.

Alan was stunned for a moment and then smiled: "Of course, Nick, how many friends do you have?"

"Well, about three or four people, most of them have been stuck in the primary potionist realm for too long, just tell them that adults can help them break through, and I believe they will never refuse my invitation."

Nick gave a confident smile.

"Very well, you can contact them. 35

Alan nodded with satisfaction: "But three or four people are not enough, I still need to recruit more potions."

Alan said, turned to leave, he returned to his main castle.

Recruiting Potions is not an easy task, but recruiting some Potions apprentices is easier.

If the number of potions is 1, then the number of apprentices is 100 or even 1000!

Alan pondered for a while, although he had the aura of the potionist profession bonus, but if no one helped him promote it, his aura ability would not be known.

No one knows the magic of their own territory, and naturally no potions are willing to come.

First of all, what he needs to do is not how to recruit potions, but how to become famous in the group of potions.

As long as they can become famous in the circle of potions and let them all know that in their own territory, they can get a certain promotion, then even if they don't recruit themselves, the potions will be overwhelming.

"Well, I want to become famous, recruit some apprentices of potions, and let them break through the junior potions in the shortest time. In this way, it should be able to have a huge attraction to those potions."

Alan showed a smile, and then asked Sparrow to find him.

He needs Sparrow to go to the capital. There is a branch of the Potions Guild in the capital, where there will be a large number of apprentices.

Although there are not many potions, there are many apprentices.

Although Alan is not sure that he can directly recruit a potionist, he believes that as a potionist apprentice, as long as he is willing, there will be a potionist apprentice willing to serve him.
