Sorcerer's Survival Manual

The car drove into a quiet villa courtyard, Xia Qianqian got out of the car, and saw her eldest brother's life assistant waiting in front of the villa gate.

"Assistant He, is my brother okay?" After handing over her suitcase to Xia Wei's life assistant, she asked worriedly.

Assistant He's face was full of embarrassment: "Second Miss, the Eldest Young Master won't let us tell you."

That is the situation is worse than before.

Xia Qianqian was even more anxious, and walked in with the bag: "Where is my elder brother, take me there."

"The young master is in the cold room."

Other people's homes are built in greenhouses, but here they become cold rooms,

The cold room is an independent building, located at the back of the villa, it looks like an ordinary single-storey low house, but the fully enclosed outer wall is covered with a special baffle that can isolate the supernatural power in the air, and there is no window , ventilation depends on a few specially designed vents, and the temperature inside is kept below ten degrees. Ordinary people don’t take good cold measures to go in, and they won’t catch a cold for a long time, but Xia Wei is basically here in summer. spent.

Xia Qianqian changed into warm clothes outside before walking in.

Although the temperature in the cold room was very low, the interior was decorated with ordinary furniture. Xia Qianqian went to the study next to the bedroom, knocked, and indeed heard her brother's voice.

Turning the doorknob, she saw her brother sitting behind the desk staring at the computer.

Xia Qianqian's older brother Xia Wei, although he has just graduated from college, does not have the youthful astringency that is typical of young people, but is calm and cold, like an older adult.

It can be seen that he is a person who regularly exercises. He is tall and tall, and the outline of muscles can be seen faintly under the simple shirt. He has short red and purple hair and a pair of eyes. The color added a sense of danger to his handsome but gloomy face.

But at this moment, the skin on the young man's body, which should have been fair, turned slightly red, which was the result of his body temperature rising.

But looking at his appearance, he didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

"Brother, are you okay?"

Xia Qianqian walked over, and under Xia Wei's gaze, she consciously stopped two meters away from him.

"Don't worry, I shouldn't die in a while."

Averting her eyes from the stock chart, Xia Wei showed a somewhat stiff smile towards her younger sister, and then disappeared when she saw the name of the pharmacy printed on the bag in her hand: "What are you holding in your hand? Are you sick?"

"Not really." Xia Qianqian put the bag in her hand on the table: "Just now I saw a pharmacy selling a new stabilizer on the road, saying it would be helpful for your situation, brother, so I just bought a few. bottle."

Xia Wei opened the bag, took out the power stabilizer inside and looked at it: "A pharmacy here?"

"Ah."

Xia Wei snorted, and put down the medicine bottle: "The things sold in such a small drugstore in such a small place can be of any use, they are just deceiving people."

If there is such a potion, it is impossible for them not to have received the news.

What's more, the company address on the medicine is problematic at first glance. Can you really trust the medicine that the manufacturer didn't mark it.

He didn't know that pharmaceutical sales companies could produce their own pharmaceuticals.

Ever since Xia Wei's personality changed suddenly, Xia Qianqian was a little afraid of him, but thinking of his body, she gritted her teeth and said, "I don't think the people in the pharmacy look like they're lying, brother, why don't you take the medicine?" Go show it to the doctors, maybe it really works.”

Xia Wei didn't believe that the medicine was useful at all, but seeing that it was offered wholeheartedly by his sister, he still nodded and asked someone to deliver the medicine to his nursing team.

The brother and sister were sitting far apart in the room, and Xia Qianqian obediently reported to him about her recent studies and the situation at home.

"...Grandpa's health is also very good recently, and he went to climb the mountain two days ago-brother, are you listening?"

Xia Wei kept her eyes on the computer screen, tapped the keyboard with her fingers, and just responded casually: "Well, I'm listening."

Obviously not listening!Xia Qianqian thought angrily, resisting the urge to talk back.

At this time, Assistant He sent back the medicine that had been sent for inspection.

"The doctor said that there are no harmful ingredients in these medicines, but they don't know what effect they can have."

Knowing that his young master doesn't like being stared at, Assistant He said while staring at the table with a low eyebrow.

Originally, after confirming that the potion is harmless, the best way is to find a fire-type mutant to take the potion to see the effect, but at present, the fire-type mutants they hired are all going home for "summer vacation" like the young master. He couldn't find anyone at all, so Assistant He simply sent back the medicine that was sure to be harmless.

After all, it was sent by the second lady, and the young master has the final say on how to deal with it.

Xia Wei nodded, indicating that he understood.

Xia Qianqian was relieved when she heard that it was confirmed to be harmless after the inspection, and the smile on her face became brighter. She looked at Xia Wei expectantly: "Brother, since everyone said it was harmless, why don't you give it a try?"

She really wanted her brother to feel better, and was fooled by the drugstore's salesperson to have a high degree of trust in this medicine, so naturally she highly praised it.

Xia Wei couldn't hold back her expectations, and felt that since the medicine was confirmed to be harmless, there would be nothing wrong with drinking a bottle.

So he took a bottle of potion, opened the lid, and downed it in one gulp.

"Ah, I heard that this medicine—"

"Cough cough!!!"

Xia Qianqian finished the rest of the sentence embarrassingly: "——It's a little hard to drink."

Not only is it a bit unpalatable, but it is a biochemical weapon that poisons the taste buds. Xia Wei has taken many medicines, both Chinese and Western medicines, but this is definitely the most terrifying taste he has ever tasted, bar none!

Disgusted by the smell of the potion, Xia Wei picked up the tea on the side and drank it in one gulp, barely suppressing the weird smell of the potion, then looked at her sister who was obviously giggling, and said helplessly, "Are you satisfied now. "

Xia Qianqian immediately corrected her attitude: "I'm sorry brother, I should have told you earlier!"

Although the salesperson had reminded her that the medicine tasted bad, Xia Qianqian didn't take it seriously at all-isn't it normal for medicine to taste bad, but she didn't expect it to hurt her brother.

For his younger sister, Xia Wei was always very tolerant, throwing the empty medicine bottle into the trash can, and he pushed aside the remaining medicine together with the bag in disgust.

"You should be tired from the car ride just now, go back to your room and have a rest."

"Can I live here for a while?" Xia Qianqian remembered that she hadn't told her brother that she planned to live here permanently.

Xia Wei: "How long?"

Xia Qianqian's eyes wandered: "Just, let's live until the end of the summer vacation."

Xia Wei frowned: "You usually stay for a week at most, why would you want to stay for so long this time?"

Although the Hukou Town where they are now is more prosperous than other towns, it is still a rural place, not as prosperous as a big city. Xia Qianqian doesn't like it much, and even occasionally says it's boring here, and she can live there with patience. It's been about a week, but this time I asked to stay here for the summer vacation, which is unusual no matter how you look at it.

Xia Qianqian grabbed her skirt and said unhappy: "Mom thinks I'm not young, and wants to arrange a blind date for me, but I think I'm still young, brother, just let me hide here quietly Bar."

"It's just nonsense, how old are you, and she wants to sell you?" Speaking of her mother, Xia Wei was not polite at all.

In his eyes, their mother was such a snobbish person. Seeing that he was awakened and couldn't help her fight for Xia's family, she immediately gave up on him and had another one. Xia Qianqian was a girl and had no qualifications to inherit the family business. , in her eyes, the only use of marriage is left.

Xia Qianqian said in embarrassment: "Mom said that we should introduce each other first, but I heard the tone of her talking to Fang Fu's family, as if she wanted to get married after I graduated."

"Does dad know about this?"

"……Know."

Xia Wei's face turned cold with anger: "You stay here first, and I will talk to Grandpa."

The two parents of their second room are obviously not doing well. Fortunately, it is not up to them to decide this matter. It is much more useful to talk to the old man of the Xia family directly than to talk to those two unreliable parents.

"Well, thank you, brother." Xia Qianqian pressed her fingertips on the red corners of her eyes and smiled at him.

The next moment, she seemed to have discovered some huge surprise, jumped up from the chair, and said excitedly: "Brother, have you started to cool down? I see that your skin doesn't seem to be red anymore."

Xia Wei has long been used to the fact that the temperature of her body rises in summer, and after listening to her talk, she realizes that she is indeed not so hot now.

Lowering his head, the exposed skin really did not know when the redness caused by the high temperature faded. To the touch, it was not only not hot, but even a little cold.

——I feel a little cold.

"The stabilizer is effective, right?! It must be, brother, look, I said this medicine is very effective!"

Xia Qianqian happily ran over, put her hand on Xia Wei's forehead, and said after a while: "The body temperature seems to have returned to normal, and it feels cold."

Turning off the computer resolutely, and mentioning the potion he disliked before, Xia Wei stood up: "Let's go out first."

Naturally, there was another flurry of inspections afterwards, and it was finally determined that Xia Wei's sudden drop in temperature was indeed due to the potion Xia Qianqian had bought.

Xia Wei looked at the packaging bag with the name of the pharmacy printed on it: "Leave two bottles for me, send the rest to others, and buy what's not enough at the store."

"Look up that drug company again. I need to see the detailed information before tomorrow."

"Okay, young master."

Xia Qianqian followed Xia Wei through the entire process of his inspection, and finally returned to her room humming a song in a relieved and happy mood.

When she put down her bag, she remembered that she also bought two bottles of medicine.

Why don't you try it?That stabilizer is so easy to use, maybe this one has some effect.

With this mentality, Xia Qianqian didn't send the medicine for inspection, but directly opened the medicine bottle, endured the disgusting taste, and drank up both bottles of medicine.

The next day, Xia Qianqian, refreshed and her beauty level upgraded again, went directly to the pharmacy, expressing that she would buy all the remaining eighteen bottles of medicine.

She wants to take such a good thing back home and share it with relatives and friends.

It's a pity that she came a little late, and after she left, those potions were sold out one after another. There were still a few people who came with the same idea in the morning, and they came much earlier than Xia Qianqian.

Fortunately, those people didn't buy all the potions directly, but left six bottles for her, three bottles of each kind—everyone seemed to be used to buying them as a set.

But such a small amount of medicine is not enough, just a few elders in her family are not enough.

"Is it really out of stock?"

Holding the salesperson, Xia Qianqian hoped that she could think of a way.

The other party was also very embarrassed: "There are really no more. The monthly payment of this store is ten bottles of each kind. Now they are sold out, so we can only wait for next month."

Xia Qianqian's eyes lit up: "This store is gone, so other pharmacies still exist. Yes, your company still exists. Tell me the address, and I'll buy it there."

Without waiting for the salesman to answer, Xia Qianqian remembered it by herself: "The address on the medicine bottle is your company's address, right, Pinghu Town, I'll send someone over here, thank you."

After speaking, he hurriedly left, not seeing the gentle and polite appearance yesterday.

The salesperson looked dumbfounded for a while, then shook his head and laughed at the clerk in the store: "This Miss Xia is really fast, and I don't know who her daughter is, and she didn't even ask me if our company still has any goods."

The two clerks asked Ai Qiqi: "Is there any more?"

Yesterday they still didn't believe in the effect of the medicine, but they could clearly see the changes in the few guests who came today, and seeing how they were in a hurry to buy the medicine, they still couldn't believe it.

"Of course it's gone," the salesman spread out his hands, "Although the monthly payment for our store is only ten bottles, our general manager's wife's natal family opened a store in the provincial capital to sell cosmetics, and the manager's wife strongly recommended it." , the rest of the goods have already been ordered over there."

This kind of medicine with remarkable effect is not a prescription drug, so it is also possible to sell it in cosmetics stores.

It's also because the goods were taken over there, otherwise the supply of pharmacies here would not be so small.

Under the disappointed gaze of the clerk, she sighed: "I wanted to tell her, but he ran too fast, so I didn't have time."

But if that customer really came to their company, someone would probably tell her the news.

Soon, the salesman put this problem behind him, because there were suddenly more people who came to buy the power stabilizer today.

As for Xia Qianqian, as she thought, she picked up her mobile phone and dialed the number on the medicine bottle after returning, asking if there were two more medicines left.

When the other party told her that the two potions are currently only available in a not-so-famous cheap cosmetics store in the provincial capital, Xia Qianqian thanked her, then turned around and made a video call to her best sister. .

"Qianqian, why are you not at home? I wanted to visit you at your house today, but they said you went to Hukou Town. How long are you going to stay there this time?"

Unlike Xia Qianqian, who tends to be ladylike in temperament and appearance, her good sister Lin Yu is a sexy and glamorous Yujie. Even if she looks slovenly, she has a charming and lazy beauty.

At this time, this beautiful woman was lying on the bed without any image, and she was talking to Xia Qianqian on video with a sleepy look.

"I won't go back for the time being. My mother is urging me to go on a blind date. I'll hide with my brother." Unlike her cuteness in front of her brother, Xia Qianqian behaved more freely in front of her friends.

"Then you can't come back, your mother, tsk tsk, if it wasn't your mother, I would have scolded her a few words." Lin Yu yawned indistinctly: "Say it, find me early in the morning What's up?"

"I found something good here, and of course the first thing I thought of was my good sister—you!"

Lin Yu didn't dare to be interested and closed his eyes and asked, "What good thing?"

Although they are good friends, their hobbies basically have nothing in common. Sometimes even Lin Yu doesn't know why the two of them can get along harmoniously for so many years.

"Three very miraculous potions, but I recommend only two like you, don't sleep, open your eyes and look at me, see what's different about me?"

Lin Yu reluctantly gave her a look: "Grandma, I didn't come home until four o'clock last night-you have a beauty face? Don't you like using that?"

"I didn't open it." Xia Qianqian said angrily: "Look carefully, my side is a completely real and unadorned plain makeup."

Lin Yu sized it up, and then had to nod: "It seems to be true, you changed your makeup? This nude makeup is really good, but I still prefer a thicker makeup look, and the masculine look is the best."

"I don't have any makeup." Xia Qianqian touched her face happily: "This is a good product I want to recommend to you. After I used it yesterday, my face became like this when I woke up in the morning. Not only the face , the skin on my body has become better, even better than the effect of SPA!"

Hearing what she said, Lin Yu also became interested: "What is so powerful?"

"The two new medicines are youth potion and beauty potion. Don't listen to the silly names, but the effect is really powerful. I just used two bottles and woke up overnight, and that's it."

"Is it as mysterious as you say?" Lin Yu didn't believe it: "Don't you be deceived? It can't be hyaluronic acid water light needle or something like that?"

"No, have you seen which brand of hyaluronic acid has this effect when taken orally? I have someone check it, and there is no such thing in it, and the ingredients in it seem to be all pure plant purification, which is completely different from those chemicals. "

The reason why Xia Qianqian went to the pharmacy so much later than the others was that after seeing her changes in the morning, she was worried about any side effects, so she sent the bottle with a little medicine left over for inspection. Scolded a few words.

"I went here late, and I didn't buy a few bottles. I heard that they are sold in the province. If you have time, please help me, but don't be too late and can't buy them."

"Why don't you come back and buy it yourself, don't you want to give it away?"

Xia Qianqian curled her lips: "I don't want to see my parents for the time being, Ayu, you are the best, can you help me buy them?"

"Okay, okay, don't flirt with me, I can't stand it." Lin Yu couldn't stand her pleading, and got up resignedly: "Tell me, where is the address, I'll go right away, in person!"

"Well, I'll send you the address." Xia Qianqian said happily: "I asked the customer service before, and they said that there seems to be a purchase restriction in the province. I'm afraid you can't go alone. Bring a few more people."

"Okay, I'll take the driver and bodyguard with me, my eldest lady."

"That's about the same. Remember, one person is limited to two sets, that is, two sets of four bottles. You have to help me buy at least ten sets, and you have to go with five people."

"Understood, wait for my news."

After hanging up the video call, Lin Yu changed her clothes and sat at the table to prepare for makeup. Looking at her sleepy face in the mirror and thinking about Xia Qianqian's radiant face, she frowned.

Hearing how powerful she is, why don't you try it yourself?

The phone on the side rang, it was a message reminder.

After clicking on it, Xia Qianqian sent her the address.

"Rong Xuantang? Isn't that a store that sells cheap daily cosmetics? What good things can there be in such a small store?"

After muttering, she resigned herself to packing herself up, took the driver and four bodyguards, and a group of six drove to the store.

When we got there, we found out that this shop, which was originally located on the edge of the commercial street and usually had no people, turned out to be unexpectedly popular today, with a lot of people around the door.

Without getting out of the car, she casually said to the female bodyguard next to her, "Go and see what's going on."

The bodyguard got out of the car and came back after a while: "It seems that a female customer came to the store and wanted to wrap up the two new products launched in the store. The store disagreed, and the customer was an idiot. It’s making a fuss, those outside are just watching the fun.”

Lin Yu glanced over there, but couldn't see anything clearly: "The rich man? Do you know him?"

"I seem to have seen it at the wife's banquet, but it's just familiar."

Being able to attend her mother's banquet should have some status, but since her personal bodyguards don't know her, then she is not a big shot.

"Have you seen what the other party wants to buy?"

"It seems to be two medicines."

Wouldn't it be the same as her purpose?

Thinking of this, Lin Yu opened the car door: "Come on, go in and have a look."

With bodyguards clearing the way, Lin Yu easily passed through the crowd and entered the store.

In a not-too-big shop, a middle-aged woman dressed as a rich wife with diamond rings on her ten fingers was proudly showing off her identity to a few shop assistants who looked embarrassed, threatening Said: "Do you know who I am, if you don't sell me something today, I don't think your store can continue to open."

Rong Xuantang's store manager wondered: "Madam, it's really not good, we are also selling it for others, and there are regulations that only sell it in a limited amount, and this medicine can only be used for one bottle at a time. If it doesn’t work within a year after using it, it’s useless even if you buy it.”

"Can't I take it back and give it away to someone else? The restriction on purchases is just for money. It's not that I don't have money, so why can't you sell it?"

Seeing her, Lin Yu remembered who it was.

I don't know the name, it seems that the surname is Wang or Huang?As for what to do, it seems to be related to cosmetics or something?

Lin Yu looked at the object of their dispute, and it was indeed two medicines that Xia Qianqian asked her to buy.

Who wants to cover all the products in one breath?That's thousands of bottles.

Not to mention, in fact, the shop assistants who knew the true effects of these medicines knew very well that this man must buy back all the medicines because he discovered their benefits after using them and felt that they were profitable.

She didn't have this thought when she deliberately inquired about these potions before. It was because they accidentally leaked the truth, saying that only they had this potion and that there were only so many in stock, so she changed her tone.

Regardless of the gloomy atmosphere in the store, Lin Yu, who was standing at the door of the store, opened his mouth and said, "Is there anyone? Why isn't there anyone who opens the door for business?"
