My Magic Tools Are Selling Too Well

46 – Moonlight night (3)

After the new proposal of the dean of Opert.

I have a lot of room in my heart.

It was because he realized that he would be quitting the alchemy shop soon.

Although the working hours are only 3 hours a day, it was not difficult to be in charge of this from evening to closing time.

He couldn’t even get the rest he should have in the evening, and at night he spent all his time studying magic tools.

If it’s not the weekend, it wasn’t easy to have time for myself on weekdays.

I started to manage my grades, but somehow I think I slept more during lectures because of this.

But that life ends today.

who does not work at night,

Enjoy your freedom!

The work period promised with the Dean of Opert ends today.

I have already completed the handover to the researcher who will be in charge of the weekday deadline after me.

A situation where you literally just have to get out.

But while I was relieved, I felt sad for no reason.

During a period of nearly one semester,

＜Academy Alchemy Shop＞ where I worked steadily.

The place where the magic tools that I used to make alone in the corner of the room were released as products, and it was the first place I knew that it was being eaten by the public.

As much as the meaning is special, it is because there are many memories that I have accumulated in my own way.

“If it’s too bad, you can do more.”

Annika hyung, who was preparing to leave work while taking shifts, joked.

I replied with a smile.

“I want to do that too, but I don’t know when I can quit again.”

In the first place, the work that started with the condition of taking a credit convenience.

The condition will be until I graduate…

If you do more, you may have to be caught working for two years.

Reason and emotion are separate issues.

No matter how many memories

Escape is to be seized when there is a chance.

“Anyway, it’s a pity. There are quite a few things to learn from you, and I had a taste of seeing your magic tools.”

“Still, at least two types of magic tools are available.”

“Yeah, it was always sold. You said you weren’t going to show me anything new.”

“That’s right.”

Annika hyung walked out of the counter with a grin.

Then he came up to me and tapped me on the shoulder.

“Goes. I suffered a lot during this time. Don’t come only when you enter the store, come visit once in a while.”

“Hyung, can I ask you one thing before you go?”

“What?”

“Aren’t Shunika and siblings really?”

“No! I don’t know who it is!”

“Puhahahaha.”

Schnika and Anika.

Because we had similar names, we always teased each other about whether we were siblings, but today was the last joke.

Annika hyung left the store while playing around until the end, and I went into the counter and started getting ready for work.

* * *

“Uh-”

My whole body screamed.

1 and a half hours long.

Customers like a storm passed by, and all the magic tools in the alchemy shop were sold out, showing the floor.

Of course, my most popular products are sold out.

I felt good when I saw the sales, but my overworked body replaced the curse with muscle pain.

In fact, I’ve been through hundreds of times more difficult training than this, so I didn’t notice anything about my muscles, but…

After being stressed for an hour and a half, I felt like I was overworked.

After all, psychological abuse is the same as physical abuse.

I thought I was going to do this crazy thing more because I listened to it for a while.

It was a moment where I felt like an idiot from just a few hours ago.

“I’m a senior!”

I sat at the counter for a while, smoking a pipe and taking a break.

A familiar name and voice rang in my ears.

It’s nice to see it sometimes, but it’s insanely boring to see it often.

It was morphine, a junior in alchemy.

what the hell is this guy

Does it come just in time for me to smoke and rest after work?

If this is an ability, it is an ability.

“It can’t be that long ago, senior! I wanted to meet this morphine senior, so I ran to the alchemy store, refusing to go on a date with Anna. Isn’t that wonderful? Indeed, he is a junior who is favored by Sacher, the biggest prospect of the Faculty of Alchemy.”

A brick crest of morphine slapped into my ear.

I don’t remember being given that title.

Besides, he refuses to go on a date with his girlfriend and comes here.

I’ve never advised you to do anything crazy like that… .

I said with a sigh.

“You came the day before yesterday.”

“Oops! I was so happy that I forgot, senior!”

Oops! It is doing this.

Could this guy really be going crazy?

I am seriously worried that I am getting caught up in the concept of chatter and becoming a monster.

I turned my head to look at the girl with the morphine.

My girlfriend Anna, she came too.

“Take care of your boyfriend. His memory is gradually deteriorating.”

“I can’t stop this either, senior.”

I don’t know if morphine is different, but I met my girlfriend well.

I can’t take offense at my ignorant boyfriend who broke our alone time and came here, but he smiled like that.

I brought two chairs from the store and invited them to sit down.

I didn’t know when the guests would come, but…

These days, there are almost no customers until an hour before closing.

The final exam period is approaching, and my popular magic tools can only be purchased early.

Thanks to that, I had enough time to talk with the juniors who came unexpectedly.

“Seniors. Is today really your last day of work?”

When I handed the tea to the two sitting at the table, Morphine asked urgently as if she couldn’t stand it.

Where else have you heard this?

My last shift today is Ruen, Schunika, and Delia.

Other than these three, I don’t know.

“Did Delia tell you?”

“no! Anna told me I’m really sorry, senior. If you told Delia and Anna, why didn’t you tell me that important fact!”

Come to think of it, Anna knew that too.

Ever since I got to know her about the introduction of morphine last time.

It’s because I entrusted the profits and asset management of my magic tool sales to her.

If I had to ask, the asset manager I hired.

She was still a freshman in the academy, but from my point of view, she has skills comparable to those of any upper tier in the empire.

Since I quit the Alchemy Shop, there are so many things that will change in the future.

Anna must have known this.

“You are dull. Anna and Delia are refreshing.”

“It’s unfair Ah, Ah, Ah, Tteuteu! hot!”

Morphine hit the table where the tea was placed and burned her face with the sudden splash of tea.

no.

Is this kid a real clown?

Is it really impossible to see the serious morphine of the past?

It seems that people are getting lazy as the days go by.

I smiled and handed him a tissue.

“morphine. Are you working separately these days?”

Are you looking at that

When I suddenly went to explore the gate.

I asked because it reminded me of how Morphine had taken care of the store for me as a substitute.

“Ah, deot, huh… do you mean work? I was going to do it, but my mother stopped me so much that I couldn’t do it.”

“okay? What about living expenses?”

“My mother is feeling much better these days, so she works at a flower shop near the outskirts. Well, I go to the academy on a scholarship, so there’s not much of a shortage of money.”

Morphine spoke without hesitation about what might be sensitive in some ways.

I had the experience of rescuing the morphine family, and I had been very open about his family history.

He seemed unwilling to tell me this story.

Hearing that story, my eyes lit up.

Of course, I thought that Morphine would be working separately, but they say there is nothing special these days.

This, maybe I just found a decent employee.

“Would you like to work with me then?”

“yes? Aren’t you quitting the Alchemy Shop now?”

“uh. Quit it and start a new one.”

“Yeah?!”

It was said casually, but it was not an idea that came to me suddenly.

Opening my own workshop, my own alchemy shop.

This is something that has been planned for quite some time.

I had already done some planning,

I spoke to Anna about the overall plan.

Perhaps, if the Alchemy Shop is established, Anna will be in charge of the business.

Considering the ability she has shown as an asset manager so far, I think she can fully control a business of this scale.

In fact, Morphine’s proposal to recruit employees was also aimed at maximizing the synergy between the two.

“ha… Seniors. I told you that you can’t start a business with your money yet. I want to help as much as I can, but this is really close to impossible.”

Anna, who had been listening quietly, sighed and said,

From the first time Anna heard about my plans, she consistently gave negative opinions.

Regardless of whether the business is successful or not, it is impossible to establish it in the first place in terms of funds.

First of all, purchasing a site near the academy and opening a branch requires an unimaginable amount of 300,000 gold.

How much money does it cost to build a building?

You may think that, but the location is unconventional, so it is understandable.

The commercial district near the academy has a large floating population and conditions are good, so that anyone can enter as long as they can enter.

When academy undergraduates and professors purchase something from outside, the first thing they look for is the nearby commercial district, and even if it is not a condition, there are a lot of customers looking for it because of the name value of being the center of the ecliptic.

There are even rumors that if you work hard for two years, you can recover your investment.

It’s not over.

This is simply the cost of the site and building required to enter the store, and if all exceptions such as the interior, small additional costs, and special underground workshops are calculated, the total cost is well over 500,000 gold.

500,000 gold.

I don’t get a good feel for the numbers, but…

This was an insane price for five ordinary houses on a decent estate.

“Senior can’t even pay half of the total cost right now. No matter how well the senior’s magic tools sell, the cost is so high that students cannot afford it.”

Anna had a cool-headed side when it comes to money.

My total funds are 250,000 gold.

The net income from various potions, stones, and miscellaneous magic tools was 30,000 gold.

[Safe Birdcage] earned 20,000 gold, and patent revenue was about 5,000 gold per month.

Selling 70 [Magic Shooter] at 5,000 gold each sold 350,000 gold in sales, of which the net profit was about 200,000 gold.

Because the manufacturing process of [Shooter of Magic Bullet] is so complicated, I deliberately did not patent it, and thanks to that, I was able to make high profits in a short period of time.

The amount of funds raised by collecting all the sales and patent profits from my magic tools was approximately 250,000 gold.

Although [Anti-Venom], which has recently been gaining immense popularity, and the patent revenues for it were also formidable.

Because of the high production cost and difficult manufacturing process, the supply itself was not plentiful…

Because it was a joint patent with Professor Meline, even half of the revenue came in.

It meant that it would take some time for [Anti-Venom] to achieve a steady return on track.

Because of this, all I can afford is 250,000 gold.

It was far over 500,000 gold, and it was an extremely insufficient amount of money for ‘establishing an alchemy shop near the academy’.

But I wasn’t too worried about this.

“are you okay. There is a reliable co-operator to fill the shortfall.”

“… Are you a co-owner?”

“Who is that, senior?”

co-operators.

At that word, Anna and Morphine asked at the same time.

It was the first time I heard a story that made me question it.

In addition, even if you are a co-owner, you have to invest a whopping 250,000 gold.

Do you have any acquaintances with that much money?

Both were amazing stories.

I just laughed and swallowed my words.

with my daughter-

Did Anna and Morphine’s curiosity reach them?

Suddenly, two men and women entered the alchemy shop.

“profit… Urcelloo! It’s sold out today! He said he could live comfortably!”

“I’m sorry, princess. The last time I came, it was definitely not sold out at this time… ”

A blonde twin-tailed female student wearing a gorgeous school uniform.

A man wearing a black priestly robe assists him.

Seeing the two of them with familiar faces, I smiled.

come.

my business partner.
