Chapter 51 Return to the Academy
"Brand! Long time no see! How was your vacation?"
Professor Morian's alchemy laboratory.
Brand met here a partner he had not seen for a long time: Professor Morian, and his apprentice, senior Anna.
"Long time no see! Professor Morian, and Senior Sister Anna, thank you for your concern, I had a good vacation!" "
Not bad? I don't think your reluctance is good. When I go home this time, there must be nothing at home. Give you a good face. You nobles are troublesome, and you will fight for any power."
Professor Morian is still the same, always believing that aristocratic families are full of power disputes like royal courts and harems.
But this time he was finally right in some respects. Brand was indeed not having a good time during the holiday.
It is simply unimaginable that he, who has always been lazy and extravagant, would act like a "book king"!
I’m already on vacation, and I’m still delving into those troublesome mage knowledge!
"Okay! I won't talk to you about the troubles at home."
Although Professor Morian mentioned the troubles, Brand was in a good mood at this time:
"I brought this A few berries from the southern provinces, they taste pretty good, and there are coffee beans. I don’t know how many you have left here, Professor Morian, so I brought some more."
Speaking of coffee beans, Professor Morian suddenly put his hands behind his back. Behind him, he said with a proud face:
"Brand, after this period of research, the research on the new formula of awakening potion has achieved milestone results. At present, my research has turned to how to reduce the cost of the potion."
Listen When Professor Morian said this, Brand was stunned at first, and then gradually realized that this should mean:
"The research and development was successful?"
Professor Morian took out two bottles of light brown potion from his magic pocket, and put After handing it to Brand, he smiled and nodded:
"This is the awakening potion made with a new formula after using coffee beans to replace the expensive magic plants. Its cost is only three-quarters of the original awakening potion! "
Hearing this, Brand was a little excited: "If it's three-quarters, each bottle has saved several magic gold coins." "
That's right!"
Professor Morian nodded:
"It also has some magic gold coins. Further optimization is possible, and I already have a clear direction. I found that coffee beans are extremely repellent to magic, which significantly increases the cost of the new version of the refreshing potion. My next research direction is to cultivate coffee beans
. Sumo variety, this involves the issue of the contract signed before. According to the original contract, the coffee beans are provided by Brand, and I cannot cultivate them here, but considering that you may not There are no breeding personnel in the relevant fields, so I am going to discuss the issue of sharing with you again." "
Let's talk about the contract sharing!"
When talking about this topic, Brand's face became serious.
Coincidentally, he was also planning to discuss future cooperation issues with Professor Morian.
Brand said with a serious face:
"If the benefits brought are enough, I will not be stingy about modifying the previous profit sharing."
Brand's serious negotiation made Professor Morian panic and quickly He stood up, left his seat to Anna, and then said:
"Next, Anna will negotiate cooperation matters on my behalf. I have to take one step in advance!"
At the end of the speech, Professor Morian almost ran out of the reception room, and it could be seen that "He does have an emergency."
After waving goodbye to Professor Morian, Brand turned his attention to the somewhat uneasy Anna's senior sister in front of him.
According to Brand's original plan, the cultivation of coffee beans, the raw material, would be left entirely to Mr. Holland, and Brand was ready to hand over the relevant interests to the Holland family.
However, after this trip home, Brand found that the space in the Holland family's medicine garden was reaching saturation.
If you want to cultivate a large number of coffee bean plants, you must open a new medicinal garden or occupy a large amount of space for the original medicinal plants.
Under the pressure of the upcoming Pioneering War two years later, the Holland family has begun secretly preparing for the war.
This is really not the right time to start another branch.
After many considerations, Brand had already turned his attention to Professor Morian.
Brand didn't expect that people would also be eyeing this area of interest.
"Then let's talk about the contract. Since Professor Morian entrusted senior sister to negotiate with me, senior sister must also know the details of the previous contract!" ...
After
some "friendly negotiations", Brand took The new contract leaves Professor Morian's alchemy laboratory.
Next, Brand is going to visit his teacher Celine.
However, meeting your teacher cannot be as casual as meeting Professor Morian.
Facing his beautiful and generous teacher, Brand decided to express enough respect.
You have to find a suitable time, dress up beautifully, and finally deliver the perfectly completed holiday homework!
Oh, right!
There is also a make-up apprenticeship ceremony!
"Brand!"
After opening the magic lock of the studio and welcoming in her disciple whom she hadn't seen for more than two months, Celine's heart was filled with joy.
I don’t know if it’s her imagination, but I haven’t seen him for more than two months, but I feel like my disciple has become a lot more handsome!
At this time, Brand looked at his teacher Celine with an "astonished" expression on his face, and then sighed:
"Teacher Celine! I haven't seen you for many days and you are still so radiant! I give my heart to your apprentice. Charmed!"
Brand said this, and Celine felt her face turn red quickly under the veil.
Although she was very happy to be praised by Brand, she still tried hard to show a frown.
Celine is quite familiar with some of Brand's strange "characteristics".
There must be something going on behind the hard praise.
Thinking about this, Celine started to cross her arms and asked seriously: "How is the holiday homework I assigned?" What surprised
Celine was that after hearing her question, Brand quickly handed in the homework. A perfect job.
Looking at the traditional runes numbered 1 to 3 in her hand, Celine's eyes were full of surprise.
"You actually finished it?"
"Why do you say it as if I won't finish it!"
Seeing Celine so surprised, Brand felt a little unhappy in his heart.
But I heard Celine analyze:
"These three runes cost you a lot of thought, right? According to your character that hates learning, if there is no external force to force you, you will not be so diligent." At
this time, Celine's eyes flashed with wisdom . of light:
"So, something must have happened at your home during the holiday?"
Although it was a question, Brand always felt that it was an affirmative sentence.
Brand sighed inwardly. Although they had not been together for a short time, Celine undoubtedly knew him very well.
At the moment, Brand had no intention of hiding anything.
He told his teacher all about the Holander family's marriage plan, the "war letter" to Mr. Holander, and the new version of the awakening potion.
Brand finally sighed helplessly: "All kinds of things piled up all at once, and I was really at a loss as to what to do!"
