Merlin returned to the open space in the back mountain. At this moment, there were already hundreds of first-year students from the Beast Taming Academy gathered here, all of them doing different jobs.
The spices bought from the fat man Dal have been delivered. There are five big bags of them. So many spices are naturally not cheap. It cost Merlin more than 5,000 gold coins, but fortunately he can still afford it now.
This speed of making money really made Dal jealous. When he came to deliver the spices, he again proposed the idea of cooperation, but was still rejected by Merlin.
But Merlin did not completely refuse, he also had his own plans. When his industries expanded in the future, he could sell the recipe of Lotus Leaf Beggar's Chicken in exchange for sufficient funds to develop his new industry.
However, Dal also understood that he would not be able to get the recipe of Lotus Leaf Beggar's Chicken in a short period of time, so he did not make too much entanglement. Compared with the recipe, he valued Merlin more.
It would be fine if there was only one delicacy, beggar's chicken in lotus leaf. The braised meat series and hot and sour passion fruit lemon chicken feet that Merlin later launched all proved that Merlin has an unparalleled talent for perfume creation.
This kind of creative thinking that breaks with common sense is what Dahl really values. He would rather kill the goose that lays the golden eggs than do something that would put the eggs in the basket. He should always take a longer-term view, right?
Merlin was looking at the discarded spice bags that had been used countless times. He felt a little distressed looking at these mixed spices. He thought for a moment and suddenly had a great idea.
"Gene, find a few people to help me dry these used spices and grind them into powder!"
Gene immediately went to the crowd to select the cattle and horses for work. At this time, Stacy suddenly squeezed over from the crowd, put down the processed hardwood and asked, "Boss Merlin, do you need help? My Fu Fu can easily grind these spices into powder."
"Oh? How much are you going to charge?"
"Three... no, two gold coins, and I'll grind all these spices into powder."
"No problem, but I have to dry these spices first. There's still a lot of water in them."
Stacie nodded seriously, "Then don't forget to let me do this job!"
It can be seen that the two gold coins are very important to Stacy.
Merlin likes Stacy very much. She is simply a model of a chosen worker. She will take the initiative to lower the price for herself during negotiations. She is such a great employee.
The next day, after the alchemy class -
Teacher Harrington is no longer queuing in front of the cart. He only needs to wait in the teacher's office. He is Merlin's VIP customer, and an owl delivery service will be delivered to his door every day.
The current Owl takeaway service can only be customized for some special groups of people. After all, Merlin has not yet thought of a good way to get the leeks in the Arcane Academy to place orders.
It is obvious that five hundred beggar chickens in lotus leaves are not enough for the students of the Arcane Academy. Now, not only the students of the Alchemy Academy, but also the people of other academies have gradually known about Merlin's stall. With more and more customers, the production capacity of beggar chickens in lotus leaves can no longer keep up.
But before the new alchemical kiln was made, five hundred was already the limit, so Merlin came up with a completely new idea.
Ten well-made carts were placed in the atrium of the Alchemy Department's teaching building. Many students' eyes lit up instantly when they saw this scene. Merlin was fully prepared!
The students looked at the carts filled with mud lumps. They knew that they were all filled with lotus leaf beggar chickens. Looking around, there must be two or three thousand of them.
Full of sincerity! ! !
The students rushed to Merlin’s stall, and just when they were about to buy Lotus Leaf Beggar Chicken, they saw a sign in front of each stall with big words written in chalk on it - Lotus Leaf Beggar Chicken Blind Box!
? ? ?
Countless question marks popped up in the heads of these students. They didn’t quite understand what this Lotus Leaf Beggar Chicken Blind Box was, but they saw the sign that said [Discount: Lotus Leaf Beggar Chicken Blind Box only 3 gold coins! 】, and instantly the whole person became energetic.
Although five gold coins are not a lot for these students, it would be better to have two less.
But they have to figure out what the so-called Lotus Leaf Beggar Chicken blind box is.
"Merlin, what does this blind box of Lotus Leaf Beggar Chicken mean? Has the price of Lotus Leaf Beggar Chicken been reduced?" the student who squeezed to the front asked.
Merlin looked at the classmates who had gathered around him and found that they were all looking at him with the same puzzled expression. He chuckled and said, "Everyone, this is the case. Due to technical reasons, we can only produce a maximum of 500 lotus leaf beggar chickens per day, which means that many students cannot buy them."
"In order to allow more students to taste the Lotus Leaf Beggar Chicken, I decided to launch a Lotus Leaf Beggar Chicken blind box. There are three thousand lumps of earth in front of you, and only five hundred of these lumps of earth contain Lotus Leaf Beggar Chicken."
"Merlin, what do you mean? Are you saying that there might not be any chicken in the lotus leaf beggar chicken we bought?" Some students asked dissatisfiedly.
Merlin admitted generously, "Yes, there is only a one-fourth chance of getting the Lotus Leaf Beggar Chicken, so I sold the Lotus Leaf Beggar Chicken blind box for three gold coins."
Wow——
When Merlin said this, the students around him immediately became unhappy. Isn't this just getting something for nothing? Those are three gold coins. If nothing comes out of it, wouldn't they be taken advantage of?
For a moment, these students couldn't accept it and shouted that the businessman was a profiteer.
Merlin quickly raised his hand and pressed the air in front of him, "Everyone, don't get excited. Although there is a four-fifth chance that the Beggar Chicken will not appear, there will definitely not be a single empty blind box of this Lotus Leaf Beggar Chicken!"
Um? No space?
"Yes, even if you didn't win the Lotus Leaf Beggar Chicken, there is a spice powder packet that I specially prepared in this blind box. This spice powder packet can be added to any food as a flavor enhancer to improve the flavor of the food. The taste is moderate, not too strong or too light. The value of this spice powder packet is no less than three gold coins!"
After Merlin started to explain, the students were able to accept it and became curious about the spice packaging that Merlin had made.
"Now I only have one morning to sell food. What if I can't eat these delicious foods the rest of the time? Don't worry, the spice packages in the blind box will definitely meet everyone's needs. Sprinkle a little on bread, or sprinkle some on noodle soup. The taste, wow! It will definitely make you addicted."
Merlin spoke exaggeratedly, praising the spice packages he prepared as being so delicious and high-end.
