My Magic Tools Are Selling Too Well

2 – A genius undergraduate who sells magic tools (2)

The Alchemy Shop is a place that sells various magic tools made with alchemy.

Including various potions including health potions and magic potions, stones and chemical products with various effects that can be used in battle, special magical tools that exert various powers, elixirs that enhance abilities in rare cases, and essentials to become a professor Even enchanting magic tools called conditions.

All items with magical effects that can be produced using alchemy are collectively called magic tools.

And in the Faculty of Alchemy, for the convenience of everyone in the academy, there was an alchemy shop that sold magic tools like this.

However, as with any academy, it is true that they are inferior in terms of quantity and quality compared to private stores.

Famous alchemists usually set up their own workshops and sell goods.

Really rare magic tools were traded for hundreds of thousands of gold at the auction house.

“Please give me an intermediate magic potion.”

The girl, who seemed to have grown up gracefully at first glance, said in front of the cashier.

I let out a small sigh.

is a freshman

Plus the premium of being an ignorant aristocratic lady.

“Who would you like to be the producer of?”

“Are you the producer?”

“yes. There are different types and recipes of potions, so the producers are different, and the prices are all different.”

Nobles receive early education to become warriors from a very young age, but how can you not know this?

may not know

This is because when families teach self-restraint, useless stories such as ‘the price of a potion varies depending on the maker’ are not well taught.

In the first place, the current hero’s mainstream studies are the three studies of swordsmanship, combat magic, and divinity.

Alchemy, which cost a lot of money and was considered impractical, was one of the studies parents hated the most.

In fact, it is very practical, and it is a subject that many students prefer.

“Do you sell potions made by professors?”

“yes. As for the intermediate magic potion, there is only one left in stock made by Professor Einz. Shall I give you this?”

“yes!”

“It’s 520 gold.”

“Yes, yes?”

The work at the Alchemy Shop was not very difficult.

Unless it was a special day, it wasn’t a place that many people were looking for.

It’s the store I’m going to work for the fifth day today, but I’ve already gotten used to it and now it feels like a normal routine.

It was the fourth time today that a customer came and was surprised at the price just like before.

It is also the fourth time to go back empty-handed with a shy face and say that you will come again next time.

“hmm… … .”

The inside of the store became quiet after the customer just now.

I put my palm-sized pipe into my mouth and took out something from my magic bag.

A small vial with red liquid flowing through it.

It was a [lower stamina potion].

It was a kind of curiosity.

Until now, there were countless magic tools made with alchemy, but I never thought of selling them.

There was no particular opportunity to sell it, and even if it did, it was obvious that it would lose its name value.

The magic tools sold at the Academy Alchemy Shop are sometimes made by professors, but in most cases, they are made by researchers at the research institute, that is, seniors who have already graduated from the academy.

It was self-evident that if you asked what you would like to buy between the undergraduate potion and the researcher potion, you would choose the latter out of 100.

So, selling the magic tools he made himself was purely out of curiosity.

Performance is certain.

The time and proficiency I poured into alchemy was by no means shallow.

I was just wondering if this would work in the market.

‘You can sell at least one potion. If only I could make it.’

Lapuri Meline, the professor in charge, unexpectedly gave me permission.

The reason was that she had not yet been assigned a research assistant because she was a new professor who had been appointed for the first time this year.

In other words, the sale of products at the alchemy shop in the academy seemed to consist of assignments or applications from research assistants assigned to each professor.

I was a student assistant, so I was lucky to be able to sell my product, even though I didn’t have any of these items.

In particular, potion manufacturing is a field that is said to be a very difficult study among alchemy.

It was a magic tool that started practice in earnest from the third year, so she seemed not to be very interested even after he gave permission.

He probably thought I couldn’t make potions.

[Low Stamina Potion]

-Type: Potion

-Producer: Sacher Philippe

– A low-level health potion that can heal wounds and heal internal wounds. The effect is very good.

It was the appraisal information of the potion that was first displayed at the Alchemy Shop.

Emotion magic is a very basic alchemy magic.

It is magic that can appraise magic tools or objects that have been magically processed, and when cast, information appears like this.

Even if you are not an alchemist, any warrior who has learned to appraise can easily use it, and any warrior can check the information of the appraised object.

Of course, the same products were all there, so not many people bothered to check all the appraisal information, even at the alchemy shop in the academy.

If you confirm that the product is defective after purchase, you will be refunded later.

It costs 10 gold.

It was a crazy price that was 20 times my hourly wage, but the original price of magic tools was like this.

It costs too much for materials to make, and because it is a non-mainstream field, there is a shortage of skilled technicians.

In addition, because of the undergraduate guidelines that the minimum price should be the same, it could not be sold cheaper than other potions.

“Who buys this… … .”

I let out a sigh of smoke.

Even if it’s the lowest price, it’s still crazy price.

If it’s the same crazy price, it’s human psychology to want to buy the one from the producer you bought before.

Today, while working at the store for 7 hours, the only person who bought my potion was a 3rd year swordsmanship department.

It doesn’t mean much, but I calculated the profit and loss.

Making a total of 5 cost more than 25 gold just for the materials.

And since I sold one, 10 gold, 10% commission, the net profit is 4 gold.

Rather 16 gold damage.

excluding labor costs, of course.

“Ah, Shiva… .”

In an instant, I felt my head go numb.

What have I done?

With 15 gold, it was enough money to learn more than 20 times.

My heart ached at the thought that the pleasures of my life had disappeared twenty times.

Professor Meline, you were right.

Your suspicions were correct.

It wasn’t ‘if only I could make it’, it was ‘if only I could sell it’… .

The magic tool I made was rotting on the shelf without even getting proper attention.

After these 5 potions, I will never sell magic tools again.

Clearly, that was what I was determined to do.

…

…

And the ones who greeted me the next day were over 20 seniors from the swordsmanship department.

* * *

The academy’s swordsmanship department often goes to practice monster hunting in the third year.

This is because from the 3rd year, you will have the fighting ability to be called a warrior in earnest, and when the 4th year is over, students graduate and become warriors.

There are times when this monster hunting practice is a solo practice of the Swordsmanship Faculty, and there are times when it is a joint practice in collaboration with other faculties.

If it was a joint practice with the Divine Faculty, no special preparation was required, but in other cases, most students would bring potions separately.

Major injuries are directly managed by the department, but minor injuries and condition checks must be managed by themselves.

The day my potion was sold for the first time was also the day of my swordsmanship practice.

On the day of practice, many potions in the shop are sold almost without exception.

Of course, the first customer in my life bought the potion I made to eat mustard while crying because other potions were sold out.

However, the potion he bought suddenly drew attention from his friends.

It was because the potion I made was particularly effective compared to other potions.

My potion produced an additional output of 30% to 50%.

For example, if I use half a potion to erase a scar, I could finish the treatment with only 1/3 of my potion.

His friends who practiced together were all curious about this potion, and soon they were able to easily find the basis.

It was an additional explanation that ‘the effect is very good’ in the contents of the emotional information.

“Please give me a low-grade stamina potion! By producer Sacher Philip.”

“Me too!”

Knowing that this sentence, which was not found in other potions, made a difference in efficiency, they came like a storm the next day and bought my potions.

“uh… … .”

What happened.

My magic tool, which I had promised to never sell again, was sold out in less than 3 minutes.

There are even people who couldn’t buy because they didn’t have stock.

I went back with a promise to sell more tomorrow.

I felt bewildered, but still, with half excitement and half joy, I made 20 pieces the next day, so that there was no shortage.

But word of mouth moved faster than I expected.

Probably because the seniors who had bought the potion advertised it on their own, about 40 students came.

This time, there were quite a few students who were not in the swordsmanship department.

Feeling complacent, I bought a lot of ingredients with a big heart, and the next day I made 50 pieces.

and the next day.

I stood at the checkout counter and stared blankly in front of me.

More than 200 students are crowded in and out of this narrow store.

“How many potions are you selling today! Please let me know, Mr. Sacher!”

“Eh? Sacher Potion Isn’t that a perfect bubble? It’s a low-level potion at best.”

“Seniors! I’m Morphine, a freshman in the Faculty of Alchemy! I left my real wallet, but only one credit… ”

“I’m selling a low-level stamina potion made by Sacher Philip for 12 gold~ It’s a hot new product that just came out~”

“Let’s get some rope, some rope!”

f*ck.

does this make sense?
