Anna Wants To Make Money (3)

She entered the potion lab, and first headed to the materials department to buy one silver coin worth of wisteria. If nothing was wasted, this one silver coin of wisteria could be made into ten units of extract and sold for fifty silver coins. This plant itself was not worth much, but because of the troublesome preprocessing, Mage Dawkins gave a reward of one-twentieth of a gold coin.

One silver coin could earn fifty silver coins; this was not very attractive to mages who were not short of money at home. After all, it took too much time, and their time was very valuable. But for Anna, it was a great thing. She was only a mage’s disciple now, and could only spend time in exchange for money. When she becomes a high-level mage in the future, she would definitely use money to buy time.

There was a detailed record on how to preprocess wisteria in “The Basics of Potions”. Anna had tried it once or twice before, but it took a lot of time because she hadn’t thought about whether there was a way to shorten the time.

And this afternoon, she was here to test whether the preprocessing time could be reduced and the efficiency could be improved, so that she could increase her production capacity per unit time.

The first step was to use the method Leon mentioned, pretreating the wisteria with the fire element, and then extracting it by using the water element.

Because each extract would become a small system by itself, coupled with limited mental power and limited controllable elements, these extracts could not be boiled in one pot, but had to be made one by one.

Anna knew that her mental power was stronger than that of an ordinary mage’s disciple. She secretly compared herself with Natalie; Natalie can use the water wave technique ten times without stopping. After that, she would feel tired. Considering that Natalie’s talent was not great, a normal mage disciple could probably use the most basic spells between fifteen and twenty times in a row.

And now, she felt nothing even after casting the most basic spells twenty times. It would likely take casing fifty spells for her to feel tired. But if she cast two elementary spells at the same time, or cast the spells typically casted by ordinary one-star mages, she could cast it about fifteen times.

After processing a unit of extract, Anna looked at the time. It took 45 minutes in total, which saved a lot of time.

Then she assessed her own mental power. If she continued to preprocess, she could process it fifteen times in a row and spend nearly twelve hours to produce fifteen units of extract.

And an ordinary mage disciple could only process it up to six times in a row, and must rely on meditation to restore their power. In other words, if you worked hard, you could still only earn thirty silver coins a day, and you couldn’t even buy a hollow crystal. No wonder no one wanted to be his laborer. After all, that Mage Dawkins was only a two-star mage, he was not a powerful person.

What Anna tried next was to make two extracts at the same time. She had two hands, and it felt like a loss if she didn’t use them both together.

Her first time trying to do it at the same time, a portion of the wisteria was burnt by her fire element because of a momentary distraction.

The second time she tried it at the same time, she had no problem with the first step, but in the later water element extraction, because the situation on both sides was different, it was really difficult to multitask. Anna still failed and almost blew up the beaker.

The third attempt at a simultaneous extraction, there was still a problem with the extraction step, but it was much better than the second time.

The fourth time, she still failed.

The fifth time, there was not enough wisteria for two. Anna spent another silver coin to buy ten pieces of cut wisteria, and continued to try.

When the second silver coin was finally used up, Anna already had sweat beading her forehead, and her mental strength was about to be overdrawn, but fortunately, the last two times were successful.

She could make two units of wisteria extract in forty minutes, and her mental strength was enough for her to process ten times in a row, that is, twenty units of wisteria extract. It would take her less than seven hours in total to earn one gold coin.

This business was so good, this was practically a “ten thousand-fold profit”.

Anna temporarily stored the prepared wisteria extract in the potion lab management office, free of charge. Mosquitoes were meat no matter how small they were. One unit of extract was worth five silver coins, so of course she couldn’t carelessly throw it away. The shelf life of these extracts was longer than that of prepared potions. Generally, if the environment was not extreme, they could be stored for about a week. This was why Mage Dawkins was able to spend five consecutive days making fifty units before using them all together.

Anna dragged her tired body to the meditation room to meet up with Natalie. After asking Natalie about her training today, Anna briefly reviewed the session with her, and then went home.

And it wasn’t until she opened her door with a yawn and saw Abel lying on the meditation mat in a starfish sleeping position that Anna remembered that she picked up a bear child last night.

Abel didn’t have a big reaction when he heard the sound of the door opening. He just raised his eyelids and looked at Anna, and said feebly, “Why did you come back so late? Why don’t you have anything to eat in your room? I’m starving!”

Anna was a little apologetic. After all, she had completely forgotten about the boy, and she even forgot to buy something for herself.

“Wait here, I’m going out to buy food.” Anna didn’t enter the room. She was about to turn around and leave, but before closing the door, she turned around and said, “When you come back, I want to see that you have tied yourself up, otherwise your food is gone!”

Anna slammed the door and left. Abel stared at the door and muttered dissatisfied, “Who can tie himself up like last night!”

That being said, after Anna left, Abel still picked up the rope, frowned and recalled how Anna had tied him yesterday and made gestures on his ankle.
