Chapter 348: Chapter 347: The Bargain Delivered to the Door, The Magical Red Fuel Chapter 348: Chapter 347: The Bargain Delivered to the Door, The Magical Red Fuel “What is this?” Richard looked at the small box in Alex’s hands, slightly puzzled.

“Lord Richard, you don’t know, although this glass tube might be a bit expensive, the glass factory gave this as a bonus!” Alex said as he opened the box.

Richard looked inside and saw that the box was divided into many small compartments, each containing powders of different colors, blue, red, green…

“What is this?” Richard asked.

“This is… a treasure!” Alex raised his voice, his eyes quickly darting around in their sockets as if looking for the right words, “Look at these colors, look at this vibrance, look…”

Eventually, perhaps realizing that he couldn’t think of any new words to say, Alex swallowed and added, “Anyway, it’s very precious, that’s for sure. It’s a… dye given by the people at the glass factory, can be used for many things. So, if the glass tubes are a little expensive, it’s still… justifiable.”

“Really?” Richard asked.

“Really.” Alex nodded, though in his heart he was thinking: Not really. He had acquired it a long time ago from a down-and-out minstrel and to this day had no idea what it was good for. According to the minstrel, it was indeed a pricey dye, but in his view, it was worth crap! Not even a single silver coin. Today Richard had shown dissatisfaction, so as a favor, he decided to get rid of the item by giving it to Richard, just not sure if Richard would be satisfied with it.

With some trepidation in his heart, Alex watched Richard take the box and begin to examine it closely.

A quick glance was all it took for Richard to be sure that most of the dyes in the box were common and worthless. But when his gaze fell on the red dye in the box, his eyes flashed and his eyebrows raised.

Richard had thought that the red dye in the box would also be a common Medieval dye, extracted from sappanwood, shellac, or lichen. After use, it would fade to different degrees, slowly turning reddish-brown, or brown.

But after a closer look, Richard realized that the red dye might actually be a special material with high medicinal value.

Logically speaking, such dye would be chemically synthesized and should not exist in a Medieval world. However, considering that this world had wizards, and that alchemy and alchemy practices were rampant, it wasn’t impossible that it was indeed produced.

If it really was the case…

Richard turned to Alex and said, “Wait for me a moment!”

He took the dyes from the box and hurried into the house to start testing what exactly the dye was.

After a short while, the test was complete, and Richard was certain in his heart that his guess was right–the dye was not normal dye but a very special, very useful material. To be honest, the red dye in the box was worth far more than the price paid for a thousand, two thousand glass tubes. He had found a great bargain, a very big one–a bargain proactively brought to him by Alex.

Perhaps the dye wouldn’t be of much use now, but in a critical moment, it could save a life.

After closing the box, Richard walked out of the house, went into the yard, and looked towards Alex.

Alex was still feeling uneasy when Richard asked, “Where exactly did you get the dye in this box?”

“The glass factory…” said Alex weakly.

“Really?” Richard didn’t believe it at all, “Are you really sure it’s from the glass factory? Then if I ask you to bring another box of the same dye, can you do that?”

“Uh, well…” Alex looked at Richard, his mouth opening and closing, and then caved in, deciding to come clean the next moment.

“My dearest friend–Lord Richard, I was wrong, I shouldn’t have lied to you, this dye isn’t from the glass factory, it’s actually from a pauper who owes me money…”

After a while, Alex explained the provenance of the materials clearly, his small eyes hopefully looking at Richard, tentatively asking, “Um, you… you won’t hit me, right?”

“If I wanted to hit you, you’d already be lying on the ground,” Richard said.

Alex: “…”

“Alright, let’s leave it at that,” Richard sighed, not bothering to argue with Alex any more. “I’ll take the box, and I’ll pay you the price for the glass test tubes, two and a half silver coins each. If you find similar dyes in the future, make sure to bring them to me. I’ll pay top dollar.”

“Definitely!” Alex patted his chest and said, “Guaranteed.”

“Great, take this money,” Richard said, handing Alex ten low-grade crystal coins and a papyrus scroll he took out from his pocket. “Five of the coins are the final payment, and the other five are a deposit for the next order. I need a batch of new glassware, long glass tubes and such. The list and specific requirements are all on the papyrus scroll.”

“Is that so…” Alex opened the papyrus scroll, quickly scanned it, and said, “No problem, I’ll make sure it’s done. I’ll get right on that.” With that, he stepped towards the exit.

Just then, Pandora, who had been cleaning flasks in the laboratory, came out the door. She first glanced at Alex, then saw two boxes of glass tubes in the courtyard. Pandora blinked in surprise before her eyes lit up.

“Richard! Richard!” Pandora called out. “Do all these new tubes need to be cleaned?”

“Uh, well…”

“I’ll clean them!” Pandora said loudly, striding over to the boxes.

Alex, who hadn’t left yet, saw that the boxes he had struggled to move were effortlessly picked up by Pandora, one in each hand, as she quickly carried them towards the laboratory.

This…

Alex’s eyes widened as he instinctively shrank his neck, feeling sure that this little girl in purple could punch him flying with a single blow. He hurriedly quickened his pace, eager to get out and away from this terrifying place.

Just then, as Pandora carried the boxes towards the door, she used a bit too much force, and the poorly constructed box cracked. Pandora was left holding a plank in her hand, while the rest of the box fell apart and unceremoniously crashed to the floor.

“Crash, crash, crash, crash…”

The sound of glass test tubes shattering had never been so clear.

This…

Pandora’s initially joyful expression froze. She looked at the plank in her hand and took a while to realize what had happened. She quickly protected the other intact box by holding it close to her chest, then, blinking, she looked at Richard with a touch of guilt, “Um… Richard, it wasn’t on purpose…”

“Mm…” Richard exhaled and said in a calm voice, “I believe you didn’t mean to do it. You… um… just take the remaining box of glass test tubes and move it inside to wash slowly. I’ll take care of the rest.”

“Okay.” Pandora nodded and carried the box inside.

Richard watched the box smashed in the courtyard, the glass shards scattered on the ground, and couldn’t help but shake his head.

He had thought that 500 test tubes would satisfy Pandora’s needs for at least ten days or half a month. Now, it seemed overly optimistic–on just the first day, half were destroyed, and the other half probably wouldn’t last much longer.

Looking up, Richard called out to Alex, who was almost out the door, “Add 500… no, 1000 more glass tubes to the list I gave you.”

“Alright, alright, no problem,” Alex agreed, nodding and fleeing out the door.
