Chapter 684: Chapter 529: Divine Throne Collection Formula, An Important Lesson for the Astrologer

It is said that the most painful thing for common men is accompanying talkative women for shopping and tea.

Sariel’s real-world status actually makes him unaware of this, and he doesn’t even need to shop. But now, he has experienced it.

Time ticks away, and every second feels like a year to Sariel.

Finally, after the Mermaid and Mary finished tasting all the tea snacks, they called the owner over.

Sariel, uplifted in Spirit, felt quite expectant. Could it be that she saved yet another Tea Master and is about to receive a recipe?

The owner respectfully said, "Lord of the Divine Throne, please offer your invaluable opinions for our store."

The Mermaid coughed dryly, "Well, could you give me your store’s recipe? I specialize in research and improvement."

The owner was dumbfounded!

Sariel was even more dumbfounded, "She actually asked the owner for the recipe?"

The chatting crowd burst into laughter, "Is her bread recipe also acquired like this?"

Sariel laughed with mixed feelings, "High possibility indeed!"

In any case, since the Mermaid had spoken up, Sariel felt obliged to support, "Owner, with the improvement and endorsement of the Lord of the Divine Throne, your store’s business will exceed by ten times!"

The store owner instantly understood, "It’s an honor to be recognized by the Lord of the Divine Throne."

The Mermaid obtained the recipe and laughed boisterously, "It’s said that, like tea, tobacco stores also make money?"

Sariel was surprised again. Does she even want the tobacco recipe? But he immediately understood. She clearly tasted the benefits from the previous bread recipe dividends — that’s the Mermaid for you, so ambitious! But she obviously lacked some understanding.

Mary explained, "Lord of the Divine Throne, tobacco stores don’t produce tobacco, they only sell processed finished tobacco. Black Iron City doesn’t have a tobacco factory."

The Mermaid was quite disappointed, "Ah, no recipe..."

Yet the teahouse owner was energized, "Lord of the Divine Throne, I do know a few old folks who make loose homemade tobacco. Although it’s far inferior to the packaged tobacco sold, but it’s cheap and has some uniqueness, very suitable for common people."

The Mermaid was pleased, "Great! Owner, quickly introduce them!"

The teahouse owner was thrilled, "I’ll go find them right away!"

Seeing the Mermaid’s ambition, Sariel had a thought, "Owner, wait a moment!"

The owner asked, "Sage Lord, what do you advise?"

Sariel then said to the Mermaid, "Lord of the Divine Throne, alcohol is very profitable too!"

Mary said, "Black Iron City doesn’t have a distillery."

Sariel laughed, "But rum is very simple. Even Pirates can use rudimentary equipment to brew it from sugarcane. Owner, do you know anyone who can make rum?"

The Mermaid was amused, "Sugarcane?"

The owner laughed, "I indeed know someone, that old man once was a Pirate, I’ll go call him now! Lord of the Divine Throne, continue having tea..."

The Mermaid laughed merrily, "Okay, owner, take your time, no rush!"

The owner walked away happily, "The time of the Lord of the Divine Throne is as precious as Gold..."

Sariel was suddenly enlightened by these words! He was right, being impatient with shopping is just a superficial assumption from men!

Since Tea, Tobacco, and Alcohol, all that’s profitable has been touched, might as well continue!

Sariel said, "Lord of the Divine Throne, Medicine is profitable too!"

Gabriel in the chat group immediately got anxious, "Sariel, you’re stealing my business! If you attract the ire of those big nobles, it might hinder the development of the Mermaid!"

Sariel laughed, "Then surely you have some medicines that don’t sell well?"

At this moment, the Mermaid perked up in Spirit, "I know how to make Plague medicine! Last time, it was my medicine that eradicated the Plague in Silver City."

Sariel broke a sweat, "This is fine for emergency, but turning it into a brand is quite difficult, affecting the interests of some noble medical associations also selling Plague medicine. In their anger, the Lord of the Divine Throne might lose their faith."

The Mermaid sneered, "Then I know how to cure the Harpy’s dysentery!"

Sariel found it bothersome too, "Lord of the Divine Throne, Harpies are extremely rare now, making and selling such medicine might not work."

Raphael laughed, "In my Blue Grey Village, the medicine for testing pneumoconiosis was used, and this incident happened because of this medicine, but it’s hard to sell, the rich don’t have this illness, and the poor can’t afford it. Why not let the Mermaid try? If she succeeds, she will win the love of miners worldwide, her faith will soar. Meanwhile, it will offend the mastermind behind this incident and draw them out!"

Sariel perked up in Spirit, though annoyed, "You’re putting my treasured Mermaid in danger!"

Gabriel laughed, "I think Raphael’s right, it’s completely feasible! After all, the Mermaid is the Guardian God of both cities; she has the strength to cope with risks!"

Sariel became excited, "What do our senior think?"

Michael smiled wryly, "Of all the NPCs I’ve met, Heiwa the clown was the most genius, but he could only learn mathematics, not Astrology. You want the Mermaid to simultaneously improve Tea, Tobacco, Alcohol, and even Medicine? Even if she were indeed divine, she might find it unbearable?"

Gabriel laughed, "We don’t know the intelligent limit of divinity yet! Perhaps only training her would be sufficient to counter Emperor intelligence?"

Michael pondered, "We can try! But given her playful nature, don’t force it."

"Understood!"

Sariel then said to the Mermaid, "Lord of the Divine Throne, we can develop medicine to treat pneumoconiosis!"

The Mermaid suddenly paused, staring at Sariel with a strange feeling.

The Mermaid asked, "Could you tell me what this illness is?"

"It’s a Miner illness..."

The Mermaid asked again, "But I haven’t heard everyone in Silver City and Black Iron City coughing everywhere?"

"Because in the Main City, after over a century of mining, the dust concentration isn’t as bad as before. But in some remote villages and towns, it is relatively common."
