Chapter 204?The design of the workshop

Charlotte doesn't want to force Kasha to become an excellent pharmacist.

Talent is crucial in this field, and forcing it would be a lose-lose situation.

However, since she wants to contribute, Charlotte decides to temporarily assign her the task of handling materials.

This will also reduce some of his and Vivian's workload, thereby improving the efficiency of their refining process.

"By the way, how was the effect of the potion you took last night?" Charlotte looks at Kasha and asks.

"It was very effective. I had a good night's sleep, and the breathing problem didn't occur again," Kasha answers, a smile appearing on her face.

"I feel like I can continue living on land now and stay with my master for a longer time."

Charlotte smiles and shakes his head.

"Our previous agreement was for you to be my maid for three months. After that, you can choose to live the life you want."

"If I can't return to the sea, Kasha wants to stay by my master's side," Kasha shakes her head anxiously, then considers and adds, "And besides, the previous agreement was to repay you for saving me.

But yesterday, you found a potion that can help me continue living. Shouldn't I repay your life-saving grace again?"

"Hmm?" Charlotte is taken aback.

"That's right. My mother said that mermaids should know how to repay gratitude, so I will be your maid for another three years," Kasha decides, talking to herself.

Charlotte looks at her determined expression and feels his heart soften.

If Kasha leaves the dispensary and can't return to the sea, she could easily become a target for unscrupulous individuals.

Such a beautiful mermaid could fetch a high price among human traffickers.

"Alright, as long as you're willing to stay at the dispensary, there will always be a place for you here," Charlotte says with a smile.

"Thank you, master!" Kasha happily embraces Charlotte's arm, her face full of smiles.

"Step aside, the floor cleaner is here again," Vivian walks in, gesturing for the two of them to stop fooling around.

Vivian cleans the alchemy room again and then immerses herself in the process of potion making, diligently working and making Charlotte, her boss, feel a little guilty for slacking off.

Kasha actively takes on the task of handling materials, grinding and preparing the ingredients for the cleaning potion and the hemostatic potion, weighing the necessary amounts for each batch, and setting them aside.

"Kasha, you're doing great. The part I hate the most is weighing the ingredients. It always takes so long to get it just right. It feels like the difficulty of potion-making has been halved now."

Vivian successfully brews another pot of hemostatic potion, looking at the various ingredients laid out beside her and happily complimenting Kasha.

Blushing, Kasha, who is praised, takes a glass bottle from the side and steps forward, saying, "I can also help with the bottling. Vivian, take a break, and I'll take care of bottling this pot of potion."

"Alright, thank you so much," Vivian nods and steps back, sitting on a nearby chair. She winks at Charlotte, revealing a mischievous satisfaction in slacking off.

Charlotte shook his head with a smile. Kasha participated and was recognized, which would allow her to integrate better into the pharmacy.

As long as she liked it, he wouldn't hinder her.

"I've already settled the location for the potion workshop, and the construction team has been coordinated. We will start construction in a few days," Charlotte said to Vivian.

"Really?"

Vivian asked, surprised, as she lounged with her legs crossed.

She looked at Kasha, who was dressed in potion-making attire, and exclaimed, "Boss, you went out for just an afternoon and managed to accomplish such a big thing?"

"That's right, I am the kind of person who handles big matters," Charlotte nodded.

"How many employees do you plan to recruit? And how many would you assign to me?" Vivian asked eagerly.

"I plan to streamline the workshop into an assembly line in the first phase.

So, I will need to recruit one materials handler, one fireworker, one alchemist in charge of refining the potions, one packager responsible for packaging and labeling, and one warehouse manager.

That makes a total of five people," Charlotte pondered for a moment and continued, "And you can handle the training for the alchemist."

"Are you saying you plan to recruit a novice and train them from scratch?" Vivian asked.

"Yes, because my method of refinement is unique, so they must undergo professional training before starting their job," Charlotte nodded.

"Well... you should do the training yourself. I don't think I have the level required," Vivian backed out directly.

Teaching Kasha potion-making today was already too painful, and she would rather let Charlotte handle this kind of suffering himself.

Charlotte raised an eyebrow, surprised that Vivian didn't fall for it. It seemed that he couldn't get away with being lazy.

On the way back, he already had a rough plan for the potion workshop.

In essence, it was a small potion-making shop, but with the detailed division of labor to achieve an efficient assembly line operation.

In the following days, in addition to pushing forward with the construction, he also had to recruit employees at the same time.

As a startup team, he needed to carefully select good employees.

A good employee could contribute positively to the team, while a bad one could ruin his newly established workshop.

Charlotte brewed several batches of hemostatic potions before heading upstairs to cook dinner.

After finishing dinner, he quickly returned to the potion-making work.

He needed to refine the potions that Leo needed, as he had to deliver them in three days.

As for the potion labels, he had already figured out a solution.

He planned to find a skilled craftsman to make two seals for him.

They would bear the inscriptions: 'Hemostatic Potion - Abyss Pharmacy' and 'Cleaning Potion - Abyss Pharmacy'.

The labels would be stamped with the seals and then placed on the potion bottles.

To expand and strengthen his potion business, he needed to start building his potion brand and strictly adhere to standardized processes.

Unlike those secretive and hidden potion shops in alleys, Charlotte wanted to conduct open and honest business, make potions more widely available, and benefit more people in need.

Compared to promoting surgery and training more surgeons in a short period, promoting potions was easier to achieve.

Currently, there weren't many restrictions from the Physicians' Association regarding potions, so they wouldn't cause trouble under the pretext of selling potions.

His goal was not only limited to the market in the Abyss.

Using Calva as a springboard, he aimed to sell potions in every city on the Isor continent.

Of course, his primary goal was to first establish the potion workshop and hope that Leo would create some buzz for his potions in Calva after receiving the first batch of goods.

This overtime stretched into the middle of the night.

Kasha and Vivian had already gone to sleep.

Charlotte finished bottling the last batch of potions, extinguished the fire, and dragged his weary body upstairs.

The potions he prepared for Leo had all been successfully refined.

Although the success rate was high with the small furnace, there was still a problem of low production.

Even if he refined two batches at once, he could still only fill 20 bottles at a time.

For the workshop, he planned to forge a large cauldron that could produce at least 100 bottles of potions in one batch.

This required an absolute standardized refining process to ensure success.

If he failed a whole batch of materials for 100 bottles, the cost would be explosive.

Taking off his clothes which were permeated with the scent of potions, Charlotte entered the bathroom and took out five bottles of Powerful Potion from his spatial ring.

He drank them dose by dose.

He had exchanged all his wealth points for Powerful Potions.

With these five bottles and another five bottles stored in the spatial ring, he felt like he was invigorated.

These things were the magic tools for staying up all night.

Consuming one bottle would sweep away fatigue and hunger, allowing him to be himself again!

With those five bottles down, he could guarantee that he wouldn't need to sleep tonight and would still have plenty of energy for the next day.

There were too many things to do, and he didn't want to waste time sleeping.

After a cold shower, he changed into comfortable home clothes and sat back at his desk.

He took out two sheets of paper from the drawer and began to sketch the layout and design of the potion workshop.

To improve efficiency, an assembly line was naturally the best choice, especially for potion refinement.

There would need to be two warehouses, one for storing the materials needed for potion-making and another for storing the finished potions.

Large-scale pharmaceutical furnaces for refining potions also require two units.

While one furnace is being prepared for packaging after refining, the other furnace can continue the refining process.

This not only improves efficiency but also stabilizes the furnace temperature, avoiding wastage.

The material processing room should be located next to the material storage warehouse for easy access to materials.

The pharmaceutical furnace is the core of the entire workshop, followed by the stations for potion distribution and packaging.

After the finished potions have cooled down, they are then packaged in outer boxes and stored in the pharmaceutical storage warehouse.

Charlotte quickly drew a layout and fully considered expansion plans for future production.

For example, both warehouses are located at the edges, allowing for easy expansion next to them by breaking through the walls.

Considering the expensive land prices, Charlotte plans to build a two-story factory.

The second floor can serve as employee dormitories, simple single rooms equipped with a communal kitchen and bathroom to solve the accommodation and eating problems for employees.

Of course, if employees have their housing, they can live at home.

After gesturing at the blueprint for a while, Charlotte finalized the final floor plan and marked the dimensions on the drawing.

Then he began to design some detailed elements, including how to separate storage materials and potions in the warehouse, the various equipment and tools needed for batch processing materials, the base and boiler for the large pharmaceutical furnace, and the pulley system used to lift the boiler...

There were so many detailed things, but as the boss, he had to consider them thoroughly, otherwise, if the workshop didn't run smoothly, he would be the one in trouble.

As a veterinarian, who knows how he acquired so many skills?

Perhaps it was because of poverty?

From various odd jobs since childhood, he gained a lot of miscellaneous knowledge and skills.
