The career of an evil alchemist that started with picking up a crazy sword girl

However, he didn't need to know too much about the outside world now.

He cared more about how to complete his task.

After asking around, he easily found the "obsidian alchemy cauldron" mentioned in the task in a store.

According to the clerk's introduction, this is a common high-end alchemy cauldron, which is not uncommon in the market.

At this time, Lu Lin, who heard the word "high-end", actually realized that something was wrong.

He asked the price, and the clerk said that it would take three gold coins. swoosh

Hearing this answer, he was relieved at first. slurp

After all, three gold coins don't sound like a lot. ：

It wasn't until he lived in the local area for two days that he realized that things might be more serious than he thought. 樨

In this world, one gold coin is equal to one hundred silver coins, and one silver coin is equal to one hundred copper coins.

And the most circulated coins on the market are silver coins and copper coins. In a sense, copper coins can be understood as change, silver coins can be understood as hundred-yuan bills, and gold coins can be understood as huge sums of ten thousand yuan.椤

Of course, the purchasing power and environment are different, so it is meaningless to compare directly with the soft sister RMB. 澾

The key point is how much money Lu Lin can make. ④

According to Lu Lin's understanding, if he works here, he can earn about 40 to 50 copper coins every day. 3

If three gold coins are regarded as a huge sum of 30,000 yuan, then Lu Lin earns 50 yuan a day and 1,500 yuan a month. Even if he doesn't eat or drink, it will take 20 months to save up 30,000 yuan. Five

In fact, of course, he can't eat or drink. If he works in the city and eats in the city every day, even if he saves, he will spend about 10 copper coins a day on food. Add some daily necessities and monthly rent. He is very good if he can save half of it every month. So, it will take him 40 months, or more than three years, to save up 30,000 yuan. Six

Of course, the time count here refers to the time of his original world. The length of months and years in this world seems to be different. ４

In short, Lu Lin finally realized that this "difficult" option was definitely not just talk.

Q However, it was too late to regret now.

Qun Lu Lin could only start to think of ways.

: He thought of the ownerless hut he saw on the way here. If he lived there, he could save the monthly rent.

2 It takes money to renovate the dilapidated hut. He thought of the earth spirit merchant who was quite interested in his clothes. He sold his clothes and bought some cheap local clothes, and there were still a dozen silver coins left.

㈨ He spent a few silver coins, bought tools and some daily necessities, and transformed the hut into his own home.

④ Then, he started looking for ways to make money and found a job that was more promising than working in the city - collecting medicinal herbs in the nearby dense forest.

０ Although this job is not so stable, just collecting common medicinal herbs can earn dozens of copper coins a day. If you collect precious medicinal herbs, you may earn several silver coins for one job.

⒋For this, he spent money to buy some equipment and tools for collecting in the mountains, as well as collection illustrations for newcomers. Later, in order to eat, he bought some tools that can be used to fish in the river.

３The start-up capital obtained from selling clothes was spent, and at the same time, Lu Lin's life in the other world was officially started.

But life was really hard.

liuIn order to save enough money for three gold coins, Lu Lin saved everything he could, only two sets of clothes to change and wash, and even salt was reluctant to buy more.

㈣But even if he lived like this for a hundred days, his total savings so far would only be about seventy silver coins, and the goal of three gold coins was still far away.

Roughly calculated, even if it was always calm, he would have to spend hundreds of days of his youth.

jiuIt was hard to imagine that this was the life of a time traveler with a golden finger.

⒋"Huh..."

８Gently blowing the fish soup, Lu Lin drank a sip, and then subconsciously wiped his beard stained with fish soup with his sleeve.

Lu Lin touched the messy beard on his face and sighed.

4. In the past hundred days, he had not cut his hair or shaved his beard. Because he was afraid of catching a cold, he did not dare to take a bath in the river. He could only use a towel dipped in hot water to wipe his body. Now he looked like a savage. If he continued like this, when he saved enough money, Lu Lin really didn't know what he would look like.

3. But what could he do? He was a person with no capital, who could not hunt, could not do magic, could not wield a sword, and could not even write the words of this world. If he wanted to earn enough money to buy an alchemy cauldron, it seemed that the only way was to save money slowly.

3. After eating all the fish in the pot and even drinking the fish soup, Lu Lin burped.

4. Although he was tired of eating, he could not stand the hunger. The defect in taste did not prevent Lu Lin from stuffing all the nutrients into his stomach.

5. Lu Lin, who was full and satisfied, let out a long breath, stared at the sky for a few seconds, then patted his knees and stood up.

After eating and drinking, it's time to continue working.

He makes money by collecting medicinal herbs. At night, it's pitch black everywhere, and it's almost impossible to collect herbs, so he can only work during the day.

Therefore, the daytime is particularly precious. Today, he just caught fish at noon and went home, so he cooked a meal at home. If it were usual, he would spend the afternoon outside drinking fish soup porridge.

:匛However, just as Lu Lin was about to set off with his equipment, he saw something floating down the river from the upper reaches.

Si Lu Lin saw this and his heart suddenly moved.

８ Could it be an animal corpse?

er Not to mention fresh, as long as there is a large piece of intact fur, it is worth several silver coins!

Si As long as he encounters one, it will be worth several days of hard work.

③ And if it is a fresh and intact animal corpse, it will be even more valuable.

３ Thinking of this, Lu Lin couldn't help but get excited, ran to a slightly higher rock nearby, and looked upstream.

０ "Well, it doesn't look like wood, but this body shape... Wait, why does it seem to be reflecting light?"

⑤ The more he looked, the deeper Lu Lin frowned.

Something is wrong.

Why do I feel more and more...

This looks like a person?

"Damn, is it a human body that was washed down?" Lu Lin's brain was a little out of control for a while.

This situation is a bit explosive.

After a brief thought, Lu Lin still ran upstream.

If it was not an animal corpse but a human corpse, wouldn't it be possible to find money or other valuables directly?

"Don't blame me, buddy, I don't want to make money from the dead, but I'm forced to make a living. I will bury you well and let you rest in peace!" Lu Lin thought as he ran.

However, when Lu Lin really dragged the "corpse" he thought to the river bank, he found that he was wrong again.

This person is not dead.

This is a girl. A layer of bubble-like film covers the surface of her skin, isolating the river water from the body. It seems that because of this, she did not drown.

However, she can be seen to be very weak. She is wearing a light armor that looks very advanced, but the light armor is now in tatters, and there are only a few pieces of armor left. As for the body under the armor, there are wounds everywhere.

Lu Lin reached out and felt her breath. Although she was still breathing, she was also very weak.

If Lu Lin had found her later at night, she might have really been a corpse.

It can be said that Lu Lin found her in a timely manner.

It's just that...

Lu Lin might not have wanted to be so timely...

Chapter 2 A man cannot get rich without unexpected wealth, and a horse cannot get fat without night grass

If possible, Lu Lin really hoped that he would pick up a corpse.

In that case, he would not have to worry about it and could just make a fortune from the dead.

But if he picked up a person who was not dead and asked him to kill the other person and make a fortune, that would be a completely different concept.

He was poor and wanted money, but he was not a scum, nor a hyena in the wilderness.

He could barely accept making a fortune from the dead, and killing and robbing was fine, but if he really did it, he was afraid that he would never be able to sleep well at night from now on.

So, although he felt delicate, Lu Lin still carried the girl whose future was unknown back to his house.

After arriving at the place, Lu Lin did some checks on her.

In his previous life, he had participated in outdoor camping activities and learned some first aid knowledge during training. Although he certainly couldn't compare with professional doctors and nurses, he could at least make a rough judgment.

"There are wounds cut by sharp weapons all over the body, as well as large areas of mild burns and blunt injuries. He has lost a lot of blood and is extremely weak. He should have a lot of internal injuries..."

The results of the examination made Lu Lin frown.

Too miserable.

Did she just run away from the mountains of knives and the sea of ​​fire?

But if you only look at her face, it's unclear whether this girl is an adult.

Who did I pick up?

Or is this world actually more dangerous than what I see?

After the examination, Lu Lin sat by the bed, a little confused.

Yes, he didn't kill the other party, but if he continued like this, the other party would not last long.

This injury is too serious, and it can't be cured by lying here and feeding some hot porridge.

In order to cure her, Lu Lin might have to go to the market to buy some high-quality healing medicine, and then use the healing magic on the crystal that can cast magic, which is unique to this world. And they must be high-end goods, and it is estimated that they can be done.

However, those things are not cheap. If you want to cure such a serious injury, you probably have to spend one or two gold coins.

Not to mention that Lu Lin can't bet his family's assets on a stranger. Even if he really bets on the saintly disease, the money is not enough.

But if you leave it alone and let the other party die here, it feels too subtle...

No one would feel good if someone suddenly died in front of you.

At this moment, Lu Lin suddenly had an idea.

Does this girl have anything valuable?

If you can sell it for some money to save her life, not only can you save people, but you should also be able to keep a reasonable part of the extra money.

After taking a look at the broken but high-quality armor on the other person, Lu Lin did not hesitate and reached out to feel around the girl.

The girl actually had a pretty good figure, with a well-proportioned body, a slender waist, and long legs, but there were too many wounds on her body, and large areas of mild burns and bruises. Even the most lustful person would probably have difficulty having any distracting thoughts in the face of such a situation.

With his brows furrowed, Lu Lin carefully felt around for a while while trying to avoid touching the wounds as much as possible, but the result was not very ideal...

I didn't find anything that looked like it could be sold, no rings, earrings, or necklaces. I searched for a long time and found a small purse.

Lu Lin weighed it and estimated that there were only a few coins in it.

As expected, they should all be silver coins.

As for the reason for saying so...

Lu Lin has seen a lot of such purses. Most rich people carry such small purses when they go out, and usually only put a few silver coins in them as cash.

After all, the value of copper coins is too low. Although one large copper coin is equivalent to ten large copper coins, it is still heavy to carry too many.

As for gold coins.

That is equivalent to a huge sum of 10,000 yuan.

Who would carry tens of thousands of cash around for no reason...

"Huh?!"

Lu Lin opened the purse and widened his eyes.

Then he poured out all the coins in the purse and rubbed his eyes.

Damn!

Gold coins!

Five gold coins and three silver coins!

There really are people who carry 50,000 yuan around!

"Is this girl an adventurer or something? Is she used to carrying all her money on her body?" Lu Lin couldn't help but think so.

Looking at her broken armor and the wounds on her body, it is very likely.

However, although adventurers carry all their wealth on their bodies, they also spend money quickly. After all, they are a profession that relies on their belts. Instead of saving money, they are more keen to convert money into equipment props and other investments.
