Chapter 250: The alchemy workshop is here, and this is the core of the abyss! (2)

After lunch, as Charlotte was about to go out, he saw Ab hurrying towards the clinic.

"Doctor, my master asked me to invite you to see the big pot you customized," Ab saw Charlotte standing at the door of the clinic and approached him, panting.

"Has the big pot been forged?" Charlotte's eyes lit up.

"Yes, it's a huge pot. I've never seen such a big pot before," Ab nodded, gesturing with his hands to illustrate the size.

Charlotte smiled and patted the little guy's head, asking, "Ab, have you had lunch?"

"Ab isn't hungry," Ab shook his head, but his stomach growled.

"Wait here for a moment," Charlotte entered the nearby bakery and bought two meat-filled soft buns for the little guy.

"Thank you, Doctor," Ab grinned, revealing his white teeth, and took a big bite of the bun. After a couple of chews, he swallowed it, eating voraciously.

"Alright, let's go. Take me to see your master," Charlotte said after Ab finished one bun.

"Okay." Ab carefully saved the other bun, leading him away.

The place where the large pot was being forged was not in Guy's blacksmith shop but in an open space adjacent to Baka Street. That was the reason why there was no one in the store when he visited Guy the other day.

From a distance, Charlotte saw the black iron pot standing in the center of the open space, reaching a height of three meters, and the widest part in the middle had a diameter of almost two meters.

In addition to Guy and Klee, four dwarf blacksmiths were chatting by the makeshift furnace.

Guy smiled and greeted him, saying, "Doctor, take a look. Are you satisfied with this big pot?"

Klee also put down the water kettle in his hand, laughing as he looked at him.

Charlotte circled the large pot and found no obvious flaws. He climbed up the shelf and looked inside. The inner wall was smooth. He nodded in satisfaction and said, "It's good, well done forging this pot. Thank you, Masters."

This large iron pot was enough for refining the potion. They hardly had any objections since Guy and the others were able to forge it.

Charlotte called Guy aside and asked privately, "Guy, how much did it cost to forge this large pot?"

"This large pot uses a lot of iron, plus the wages of four master blacksmiths. I calculated yesterday, that this pot will need 120,000 copper coins," Guy said.

"Alright, then make another one for me," Charlotte nodded. The price wasn't cheap, but it was still within his budget.

In addition, Charlotte also custom-ordered one hundred needles and matching syringes from Guy.

Then he went to the glass factory and ordered one hundred glass syringes, which cost 100 copper coins each due to being a new product, totaling 10,000 copper coins.

After the syringes were customized, he went to the alchemy workshop.

According to the foreman's agreement, the workshop was officially completed today, and he could go for an inspection.

The workshop stood on a barren piece of land, appearing somewhat lonely.

When Charlotte arrived, the workers were carrying various tools out, and Buddy was talking to the foreman.

"Doctor, you're here," Buddy greeted Charlotte respectfully when he saw him.

"I heard from the foreman that it's finished today, so I came to take a look," Charlotte smiled at Buddy. "Since you're here too, let's do the acceptance inspection."

"Alright, I'll take you around first to see if there's anything that needs to be fixed," Buddy nodded, leading Charlotte into the workshop with the foreman accompanying them.

The workshop was six meters high on the first floor, with separate storage for materials and finished potions. The place to brew potions was in the middle, and the base for the cauldron was already set up according to the blueprint, only waiting for the cauldron to be placed.

The construction team's skill level was very stable, and the construction progress was high according to the blueprint, with no major flaws.

On the second floor, there were eight employee dormitories, each with its washroom, and a communal kitchen to meet the daily needs of the workers.

There were no problems with the acceptance inspection, and regarding the price, Buddy helped negotiate a discount. In the end, they settled on a price of 335,000 copper coins with the foreman, and Charlotte paid on the spot.

In the following three days, Guy also successfully forged the other iron pot and brought both pots to the workshop.

The other customized items were subcontracted to several blacksmiths to speed up the process, and they were gradually delivered to the workshop for installation.

The two pots alone cost 240,000 copper coins, and the miscellaneous items added up to 100,000 copper coins.

Because the alchemy workshop was located in a remote area, for safety reasons, Charlotte also installed a fourth-level magic protection shield, costing 400,000 copper coins.

In just a few days, a total of 1,075,000 copper coins were spent.

His newly filled wallet was empty.

Charlotte didn't expect that when he had only 200,000 copper coins in his pocket, he had the idea of building a workshop, and in the end, he spent a total of 1,075,000 copper coins.

"The alchemy workshop is completed. Shall we go take a look after eating?" Charlotte said at the dining table.

"Sure, I've been wanting to see it for a long time," Vivian nodded her head eagerly, holding her bowl.

"Kasha wants to see it too," Kasha said with a smile.

After lunch, Charlotte went to the neighboring bakery and found Nora, who was mopping the floor. He said, "Nora, the alchemy workshop has been completed. Starting from tomorrow, you will officially start working. The workshop provides accommodation. Would you and your family like to move there? I'm planning to go to the workshop this afternoon, and you can come with me."

"Okay, I'll come with you as soon as I finish mopping the floor," Nora nodded with excitement.

"Doctor, you've found a good employee in Nora. She's so hardworking," Mrs. Bella looked at Nora with reluctance and gave her a bag of leftover bread.

"Thank you, Mrs. Bella," Nora gently hugged the old lady. "Please take care of yourself."

Charlotte and the others followed Nora to the inn for a while, and soon Jacob arrived carrying a large package, holding Carl in his arms and followed Nora downstairs.

"Hello, doctor," Jacob greeted Charlotte respectfully as his leg had already healed.

"Hello, doctor, hello, auntie," little Carl also greeted everyone obediently.

Then Charlotte went to Guy's blacksmith shop and took Klee with him. Charlotte rented a large carriage and the group set off towards the alchemy workshop.

The street scenes outside the carriage became increasingly desolate, with fewer and fewer pedestrians.

Until the square building standing on the barren land appeared in their sights, everyone's expressions became even more amazed.

On a piece of barren land, a square building seemed to have grown out of nowhere, surrounded by nothing but a wasteland.

A newly opened gravel road led to the square building, and the nearest street was two to three kilometers away. Moreover, there were only a dozen households scattered along that street, mostly poor scavengers.

"Boss, isn't that the pharmaceutical workshop you mentioned?" Vivian asked uncertainly.

Everyone in the carriage also looked at Charlotte.

"Exactly, that's our new workshop," Charlotte nodded.

Vivian was puzzled, "Isn't this too remote? We're at the edge of the abyss, and there are hardly any people around."

Charlotte reassured them confidently, "The remote and desolate areas are temporary. We must have faith. Our alchemy workshop is located, that's the core area of the abyss. It's just a matter of time."

He didn't know if the others believed him or not, but he could see that Kasha, in particular, believed.

The carriage stopped in front of the workshop gate.

Charlotte tied the reins to a tree, opened the iron gate, and said, "The entire workshop is protected by a fourth-level magical shield, so you don't have to worry about safety within the workshop area. And our workshop, the Harriman family has a stake in it. Look at the emblem on the wall, the Harriman family crest. Safety is guaranteed to the highest extent."

The Jacob family and Klee's eyes lit up when they heard this.

A fourth-level magical shield, that was quite high-level protection. They didn't expect that Charlotte, even though he no longer lived here, would spend a high price to provide such security measures for them.

As for the Harriman family, even Jacob, who had only been in the abyss for a few days, had heard about the family's status in the abyss.

It would be hard to find a good boss like Charlotte even if they were looking for one with a lantern.

Charlotte led everyone into the workshop. The floor was paved with wear-resistant black stone, and as soon as they entered, they saw the two large cauldrons over three meters high standing in the center.

There was a crane driven by an array on top of the cauldrons, which could be operated by ordinary people.

The lighting in the entire workshop used a combination of white crystals and elemental stones. After polishing large pieces of white crystals, their brightness was higher than that of ordinary oil lamps, and there was no risk of fire. When the brightness decreased, the inexpensive elemental stones could be replaced.

There was already a considerable amount of coal piled next to the boiler, brought over from Harriman's place yesterday along with the materials.

In addition, ten thousand glass bottles and label paper, custom-made from the glass factory, had also been delivered.

The alchemy workshop was currently in a state where it could start production.

"Wow! This alchemy workshop is amazing! It's so much bigger than our potion room. With that big cauldron, can't you produce a hundred potions at once? You just need to make one batch and you're done!" Vivian looked and touched the equipment, expressing her amazement.

"Burning this pot is quite challenging. I like it," Jacob said as he came to the large cauldron, walking around it twice and whispering in admiration.

"This is not a joke," Klee also curiously observed the surroundings. After seeing the layout inside the workshop, he admitted that he was intrigued.

The job that he didn't have much hope for suddenly became interesting.

Perhaps what Charlotte said was true. With the alchemy workshop here, this place is the core of the abyss!

There will be a day when it becomes a reality, won't there?
