Chapter 30 Production

Joan came back earlier today than usual. When he entered the town, it was not completely dark yet. The open doors and windows on both sides of the street wafted out the aroma of baked bread and stew, which made his stomach growl, and he couldn't help speeding up his pace towards the clinic. .

Dr. Kailandier had just sent away the last appointment patient of the day. When he was about to lock the door and saw Joan, he invited him into the clinic and casually asked him how he got today.

Joan opened the backpack and took out the wooden box containing the leeches first. Usually he can bring back thousands of fresh leeches without saying anything, but today there are only less than two hundred scattered in the box.

Dr. Kelandil was wondering why he had so little harvest today, and Joan took out two bundles of plants whose roots were wrapped in moist soil from his backpack, and finally took out a glass straw filled with translucent liquid. neck bottle.

The doubt in the half-elf's eyes was quickly replaced by surprise, and he couldn't help but ask Joan, "Where did you collect so many bloodroots?"

"A place deep in the Lizard Swamp."

"Deep in the swamp?" Dr. Galanduil was even more surprised. "You'd better not go to that horrible place again. It's not worth risking your life for a few herbs."

"A friend helped me collect bloodroot. It lives in the swamp and is very familiar with the environment there."

Dr. Galandil opened his mouth, and finally suppressed the urge to search for the bottom line. Instead, he picked up the glass bottle and looked at it. He carefully unscrewed the cork, put his left hand over the mouth of the bottle, and looked towards where he was. Gently slapped him in the direction of the bottle, making the tiny scent particles from the ampoule float towards his nose, and immediately smelled a faint astringency.

"This seems to be the glandular secretion of some kind of creature." Galanduil speculated based on his own experience in medicine.

Joan nodded in admiration, "It's a toxin secreted by a black water snake."

Galanduil took out a small dropper, took a drop of snake venom from the ampoule and applied it on the light gray test paper, illuminated it by the candle light, and murmured, "It should be the venom of the wire snake, this thing Very effective for swollen joints and muscles, worth hundreds of Kindurka an ounce."

Joan looked at the small bottle of snake venom he had collected. According to his visual inspection, it was about 0.5 ounces in size, and it was worth no less than 50 Gold Duga, equivalent to at least 5,000 leeches!

"Are you planning to sell all of these?" Galanduil pointed to the bloodroot and snake venom on the table, his eyes burning hot.

Joan could tell that Mr. Galandil was very interested in these rare medicinal materials. After a little thought, he decided to tell the truth.

"Doctor, I want to keep some medicinal materials for myself to practice preparing potions."

Galanduil was slightly taken aback, and then heard what he meant.

"Twenty parts of bloodroot extract, with one part of refined snake venom?"

Joan nodded a little embarrassedly.

"That toxin is very dangerous, you..." Galanduil hesitated to speak.

"Don't worry, I will never use poison to harm anyone!" Qiao An swore seriously, and at the same time added in her heart, "Unless the other party provokes me."

Galandil hesitated for a long time before reluctantly nodding, and tirelessly told Joan to strictly abide by the moral bottom line of medical practitioners. He could neither sell poison to those who misbehaved for profit, nor use living people as experimental subjects. Experimenting with poisons, if it violates these tenets, will be cast aside and even lead to prison.

Joe quietly listened to Dr. Kelendiel's teachings, and took note of every word he said.

"The tempering of bloodroot grass and snake venom is not as simple as it is written in the book. If you have no experience and no equipment, you will definitely go wrong if you do it in a hurry. It's nothing to waste precious materials. It's really dangerous." Dr. Galandil sighed, "You go home for dinner first, come to my laboratory at eight o'clock, and I will teach you the skills of refining medicinal materials."

"Thank you so much!" Joan bowed deeply to Dr. Kelendiel excitedly.

Returning home with 40 gold coins from the sale of leeches and some medicinal materials, Joann wrote down today’s experience on a piece of paper and handed it to Candy who was waiting for him to have dinner at the dining table. Take classes there.

"You've been really busy all day." Conti put down the note with a smile and sighed, and handed him a bowl full of creamy soup, "Eat more, and you will have the energy to study when you are full."

Potatoes and green beans are stewed badly, mixed with a lot of cream and ham crumbs, seasoned with salt, pepper, and rosemary, the mouth is rich, silky, and mellow, this extreme deliciousness almost stimulated Joan's tear glands out of control, had to Admit that Conti's cooking skills are much better than his own.

After eating a bowl of thick soup and two thick slices of toast, Joan put down the spoon contentedly, thinking that the king's dinner was nothing more than this.

"Kanti, do you still have ingredients at home?"

"Yes, but there are not many left. I will go to Aunt Barbara's store tomorrow to buy."

Joan nodded, took out the purse, counted out 10 gold coins and handed it to Kandy.

"I made a lot of money today, and you can use it to buy vegetables, which can be regarded as this month's household income."

Kanti took the gold coin, hesitated for a long time, and finally said what was in his heart: "Joan, my injury is almost healed, and I may go home before the end of the month."

Qiao An was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Kandy was not his family, but only temporarily lived in the town, and she was going to leave after all, after all, she also had her own family and relatives.

"when are we leaving?"

"Not yet, wait for my parents to pick me up."

"Understood, I wish your family an early reunion."

"I'm gone, will you be sad? Even if it's only a little..."

"Maybe." Qiao An didn't dare to look directly into the girl's clear eyes, and hurriedly got up after ambiguously coping with it, "It's too early to say these things, I'm leaving first."

On the street, Joan's mood calmed down in the cold night wind. Thinking back to what Kanty said just now, I can't help but feel a little heavy.

In fact, it has only been a short month since Kandy came to Delin Town, but in his subconscious mind, this bright and lively Asa girl seems to have become an integral part of the family. The loss of such a person would make him feel empty inside. However, Joan had to face reality. It was just a coincidence that Kandy came into his life. She and him were not from the same world, just like two roads, after a short intersection, they still had to return to their normal state of going their separate ways.

After all, Joan is not a "passionate seed". After walking along the street for a while, his mood gradually returned to calm. He no longer entangled in Conti's stay or stay, and his mind returned to tonight's pharmacy experiment class.
