Chapter 113: Charming Red Lips
During the last battle to defend Fort Monterey, Levi seized a full 80,000 in cash from the orc camp.
The cash should have been collected by the orcs from the other three baronies, and they had accumulated wealth for twenty years.
Later, Li Wei paid a large amount of combat subsidies and pensions, leaving almost 50,000 gold coins left.
Although the seized antiques, artworks, etc. are worth sixty or seventy thousand gold coins in total, those items cannot be sold during the war and cannot be sold at high prices, so the Monterey family only has that cash.
Later, Mr. Levi engaged in territory construction and bought two Orn houses. Now Mr. Levi seems to have no money.
Although Viscount Vega was not in a hurry to ask for payment, Levi didn't like the feeling of having no money.
"How about some soft food?"
Levi felt that the senior sister in front of him should have a lot of money. Although he felt that it was a bit embarrassing to borrow money from her, establishing a proper debt relationship with the opposite sex would help enhance the relationship.
This is a ridiculous theory that Master Li Wei, who has been single for N years in his previous life, heard from somewhere. Although Li Wei has not verified it in practice, no matter what others think, Li Wei thinks it is true.
"Levi! Cheers!"
Viscount Ome's toast brought Levi back from his random thoughts.
After just signing a contract with Viscount Vega that both parties were satisfied with, the two returned to the big tent in the center of the military camp, and the private banquet arranged by Viscount Ome also began.
In addition to the few kegs of famous wine that Levi bought at the luxury store temporarily, Viscount Ome actually took out a bottle of Alsace.
Ignoring Robert Vega, whose facial expression was still somewhat unnatural, the atmosphere of the entire banquet was still very harmonious and relaxed.
"Baron Monterey, you have been asking me not to miss the celebration you are holding in the military camp tomorrow night. Is there any good thing?" "
Haha, Viscount Vega, please allow me to pretend that I will come tomorrow when you come. Got it."
"Well, Baron Monterey, you have whetted my appetite after you said that." "
Hey, Viscount Vega, you will know by then that Baron Monterey is definitely a very worthy investment. The target."
"Okay, then I'll wait and see. By the way, Hopkins, I heard that you went to Lilith's forest demon hut last time. How did it feel and how was the quality?" "
Ahem - I don't like this kind of talk. Come on, I, Hopkins Ome, have always been clean and self-sufficient and have never disdained such dirty things." "
Yes, yes, everyone knows that you, Hopkins, are the most serious people. You were almost beaten by the Marquis of Ashan that year. Broken leg."
"You can't denounce someone's innocence out of thin air. I just watched a song and dance show and didn't do anything!
It's not like someone who only lasted three minutes before feeling sluggish. In the end, I had no choice but to drink a drink. 'Sexy red lips', this matter has spread in the circle."
Viscount Vega's veins popped out when he heard it. Obviously, the authenticity of this matter is quite high.
A man's ability in that area is linked to his physical fitness, but it's only relative.
From a vertical comparison, if a person practices from the second level to the third level, his ability in that area will definitely improve significantly.
But horizontal comparison is not necessarily the case.
A successful martial artist may not be able to compete with a mortal who has never practiced in that area.
Viscount Vega is a typical example. Levi, who was sitting aside, watched the two people gradually go off topic, but he had some thoughts in his mind.
When counting down the most profitable drugs in the previous life, the little blue pill would definitely rank high. The 'Sexy Red Lips' from Hisoka's plane had almost the same effect as the little blue pill.
The quality of 'Seductive Red Lips' itself is not high, it just barely touches the threshold of extraordinary potion. Many alchemists even think that this kind of obscene potion is not worthy of the word "extraordinary" at all.
This kind of discrimination also has a theoretical basis. The requirements for refining 'Seductive Red Lips' are not high. In theory, a second-level advanced spellcaster can meet the refining conditions of 'Seductive Red Lips'.
Many times, the first potion refined by third-level spellcasters who are new to potions is the 'Seductive Red Lips'.
The price of this thing is high or low. One tube sells for about 5 gold coins.
As a potion for fun, 5 gold coins is really not cheap.
This is equivalent to half a year's total income for an ordinary family of six, or two to three months' basic salary for a third-level soldier.
Of course, for noble men, ten gold coins is just that. As long as you don't come here every day, your wallet can still bear it.
The target audience of 'Sexy Red Lips' is those aristocratic gentlemen who lack some ability in bed.
Master Li Wei believes that in many cases, more money can be made by going down the market.
Didn't you see the scene in the previous life where Taobao was beaten violently by Pin Xixi and Singularity was smashed by tomatoes?
The quantity is large enough and the price is low enough. No matter which high-quality and high-quality route you take, you will have to give way!
Li Wei's idea was to recruit some low-level spellcasters to be his workers.
Then the production process of 'Seductive Red Lips' was simplified according to the previous idea of improving Roja's potion, and the difficulty of making a 'Seductive Red Lip' was reduced to a minimum.
At that time, it will be a set of rudimentary pharmaceutical production lines.
As for the cost, generally speaking, labor accounts for a considerable part of the cost of producing extraordinary props.
But how many fodder can Master Li Wei's cattle and horses eat?
Li Wei's idea was that the produced 'Seductive Red Lips' could be diluted with a little water and sold for one gold coin each.
At that time, the nobles in need can come and take a tube every day, and the fourth- and fifth-level extraordinary people can also afford it.
Even third-level soldiers can occasionally enjoy this magical medicine to boost their spirits.
After this period of contact with Marquis Ashan, Master Yelena and others, Li Wei gradually understood that in the Hisoka plane, the eyes of big shots and those high-level powerful men disdained to glance down.
If Levi really succeeds in the business of 'Seductive Red Lips', it will be much safer than making extraordinary equipment.
No matter how much noise Li Wei makes about this kind of fun-enhancing drug, his superiors won't really pay attention to it.
Unlike Levi's previous extraordinary equipment, he didn't dare to fully expand his production capacity, let alone sell it on a large scale.
Although good brother Hopkins suggested that he use the sale of extraordinary equipment as a channel resource to exchange with other nobles.
But Levi has already made up his mind that in addition to Viscount Ome and Viscount Vega when it comes to selling extraordinary equipment, he will find at most a third buyer before he truly gains power, and all of them must sign a supply confidentiality agreement.
As for the flaming red lips in the future, Levi can sell them openly.
Moreover, the massive sale of flaming red lips is also a protective color. After all, how much of a threat can an aphrodisiac seller be?
