Chapter 25: Gold Chapter Collection
Chapter 25 Gold Recovery
This book mainly introduces the basic principles of some arcane potions and also records some basic prescriptions.
Arcane potions are called potions, but after reading this book, Fang Yu felt that potions are actually a variation of spells.
According to the explanation in this book, the effects of the medicine do not come from the raw materials themselves.
In essence, arcane potions are made by combining different raw materials and using certain refining methods to confine the corresponding magic network energy within them, thereby causing a corresponding impact on the potion user.
Therefore, many raw materials that have nothing to do with their original medicinal efficacy and final effect are the main ingredients of certain medicines.
For example, the first-ring healing potion mentioned in the book can fully restore the health of ordinary people and extraordinary people below level 3.
But its main ingredient is Silver Moon Grass. If Silver Moon Grass is only used as a herbal medicine, the only effect of this herb is to help sleep, and it can slightly improve the sleep condition of some users.
It is not the medicinal ingredients of Silver Moon Grass that actually have the therapeutic effect.
In the process of refining potions, the material Silver Moon Grass is more like a spellcasting material.
The ultimate healing effect is that the combination of these herbs conforms to the Magic Net's definition of "healing". Under the control of spells and magic power, the Magic Net solidifies the "healing" effect into this potion.
The more Fang Yu read this book on alchemy, the more disappointed he became, mainly because the low-level potions recorded in it used ingredients he had never heard of before.
Merina roots, shadow mushrooms, wind vines, yellow ning grass, Pers stone powder...what the hell are these.
Fang Yu flipped through a few more pages. He could not find any relevant information on the Internet about most of the raw materials used in the wisdom potion, the healing potion, or even the so-called climbing potion that could increase climbing speed.
This book was rented for nothing.
It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice.
"Huh? These two potions are interesting. These raw materials... let me check." Fang Yu was about to give up, but when he saw the last two prescriptions, his eyes lit up.
"Plumeria... I don't know if it's the same as the one on Blue Star..."
"Got it! They do look alike!"
"Yuzu! Yuzu!"
Fang Yu called out to Professor Jorz, who had been very quiet.
“Come here and take a look. Is this the frangipani mentioned in this book?!”
"Grapefruit!?"
Fang Yu shouted a few times, but still didn't hear any response from Professor Yorz, and couldn't help but frown.
It seems that this guy only cares about eating and not about being beaten.
Just a few hours after the punishment, the ball started to rise again.
Fang Yu stood up angrily and went to the living room.
As soon as I reached the door of the living room, I saw a blinding red light coming out of Professor Yoelz's head, and a stream of white gas rushed out of the hole on the top of the ball, which looked like it was about to explode.
Fang Yu was shocked.
Is there something wrong with Professor Yorz?
Can't be so unlucky?
Just when I was about to ask it a question, the ball froze?
"I'm so angry! I'm so angry!"
"This damned Buddha!"
"Why are you targeting my little bone?!"
"Ah! I am so unfortunate. If my master was still a level 17 arcane wizard, he would definitely be able to give this hateful guy an 'eternal cage' so that he could never bully my little bone again! But now my master is just an apprentice, wuwuwu~"
Fuck! Brainless fans are the most hateful.

"It is indeed of a purity of two nines. Do you want to pledge it or do you want us to recycle it directly?"
The jewelry appraiser from Jie Xin Pawn Shop held an appraisal report and spoke politely. The next day, Fang Yu asked for a day off from work, which was rare.
Last night he asked Xu Lesheng for the contact information of a pawn shop, and planned to sell the gold coins that were used as change in the Lorin Tower vending machine early this morning.
It is easy to buy gold but difficult to sell it. Gold shops generally only recycle gold jewelry of their own brand, and banks only recycle physical gold bars they have issued.
However, there are too many tricks in small gold recycling shops, and you can be cheated if you are not careful.
Therefore, for Fang Yu, the best way to recycle gold at present is the pawn shop.
Although the recycling price of the pawn shop is slightly lower than that of the gold shop, the procedure is simpler and there are not so many troubles.
"Just recycle it." Fang Yu signed the recycling contract.
These 458 gold and brown coins weigh a total of 4812 grams.
To Fang Yu's surprise, the gold coin was almost pure gold.
You know, pure gold is very soft and can easily wear out if used as currency and not properly stored.
In addition, most dynasties would experience inflation in the later stages of their reign, and the gold content of official coins would gradually decrease, with the lowest being only 8k (30% gold content).
Therefore, in the history of Blue Star, many so-called gold coins are not truly pure gold, and only about 85% of them have a good credit rating.
But the purity of this gold brown is over 99%, which is similar to the purity of the gold Aurelius and gold Solitus issued by Diocletian and Constantine I.
The recycling price that Jie Xin gave Fang Yu for this batch of gold coins was 238 yuan per gram, which was ten yuan lower than that of other gold shops.
4812 grams of gold, million yuan. Less than half an hour after signing the contract, Fang Yu received a text message notification from the bank.
This time when selling gold, Fang Yu didn't meet any beautiful young boss of the pawn shop, nor did he get any chance to show off and get slapped in the face. He felt quite regretful.
Less than five kilograms of gold may sound like a lot, but for most pawn shops, they always come across a few customers a year who recycle more than ten or twenty kilograms of gold at a time.
The largest amount the assessor had ever seen was 120 kilograms, which was divided into six suitcases and transported by car.
This is especially true when gold prices are rising and when the stock market is plummeting.
"It's a pleasure to work with you. By the way, I think this gold coin is quite exquisite. Where was it issued? Any comment?"
The appraisal assessor pushed up his black-framed glasses and asked politely.
This gold coin is very beautifully made. You can tell at first glance that it is not an ancient currency with rough workmanship made using injection molding technology. I just don't know if it is a commemorative coin.
"A friend helped me make these board game props, but now he's quitting the game and doesn't play it anymore." Fang Yu turned off the text message notifications on his phone. "I may have to sell some of them in the future."
The appraiser's eyes lit up: "Okay, we'll get used to it the next time. The next time we buy it back, we can raise the price by a few dollars based on the current price."
In fact, pawn shops like gold the most because it has little risk and circulates quickly.
The price of gold sold in pawn shops is generally lower than that in gold shops. Some people specialize in this business. They buy gold jewelry from pawn shops and then take them to gold shops through their own channels to launder them. It is not a problem for them to make a profit of several thousand yuan a day.
"You young people are incredible. You need pure gold props for your board games."
The assessor, who is in his thirties, couldn't help but sigh.
"If that's the case, we'll melt it down so the gold bars can be sold more easily."
Fang Yu smiled, waved his hand, said hello to the pawnshop manager introduced by Xu Lesheng, and then left Jie Xin.
By the way, today is already Tuesday. If nothing unexpected happens, someone from Chaoyue should contact me today, right?
