Chapter 49: CHAPTER 48
After the baron had left, Johan wasted no time and immediately ask his employees to get ready the carriage, as he was preparing to go to the Heavenly Palace to meet Andrew to discuss the stimulant.
His employees were very efficient, it only took them a few minutes and Johan was already on his way. Meanwhile, in the Heavenly Palace, everything was going normally.
Andrew had sent some men to investigate Debos, as he knew he was the mastermind behind the attacks in recent days, but was shocked to learn that he had died and his subordinates had started a power war.
He didn't want to get involved in that matter. For him it was perfect because if they were busy fighting each other, they would forget about the Heavenly Palace, allowing him to develop better.
After receiving the report from his men on Debos, he dismissed them and continued to review the account books and chat with Carolina about the improvements they should make.
While they were discussing in the office, Johan's carriage arrived at the gate of Heavenly Palace. Victor identified the owner with a glance and quickly called a guard, "Inform the young master that Mr. Johan is visiting."
The guard did not dare to ignore the order and left at great speed, while Victor went out to welcome the guest. He knew that Johan was a high-profile client for the Heavenly Palace and so he did not dare to neglect him.
"Welcome, Mr. Johan, it's a pleasure to receive you", Victor said politely as he made a small bow, to which Johan responded with a slight nod as he said, "Thank you, young man. I have business with young Andrew. Is he home?
"Of course, please follow me", Victor replied without losing his etiquette and guided Johan to the office. In front of the office door, VĂctor knocked softly and from inside it was heard, "Come in" and then he opened the door.
When the door opened, Andrew could see Victor accompanied by Johan and his butler placing a warm smile he greeted, "Mr. Johan what a pleasure", to which Johan replied in the same way, "Young Andrew as well".
The two of them warmly shook hands as if they were friends from many years ago when they had only met once in their lives. "Thank you, Victor, you can leave," Andrew said kindly.
Victor bowed gently and said goodbye. He closed the door on his way out and when only Andrew, Carolina Johan, and his butler were left in the office, Andrew invited the visitor to sit down.
"How is everything? How did Mr. Bula get on?" Andrew asked trying to start a conversation and Johan replied laughing, "He is great, thanks for asking".
"I'm glad to hear that," Andrew continued, and Johan replied, "All thanks to you young man." The office fell into an awkward silence after that and Johan was looking at Carolina surreptitiously like last time.
Andrew and she realized that and she thought about excusing herself and leaving as she had done last time, but Andrew was faster, "Mr. Johan, I imagine that the issue that brings you here today is just as thorny as the past, but you don't have to worry about Carolina, she is the young lady of the Palace, you can talk calmly".
Johan was surprised when he heard Carolina's title because he knew what it meant and gave the lady a puzzled look. The latter only muffled a slight smile to hide her embarrassment, making her look more beautiful.
Carolina had undergone apparent changes since the last time Johan came to the Heavenly Palace and it was not only her state, but her appearance and presence.
She was now a woman in every sense of the word and exuded maturity in her behavior, but Johan didn't look at her for a long time, because he thought it was disrespectful and said.
"Well that's good news, she's a lovely lady," Andrew smiled at the comment and just said, "Thank you." "Then I'll get to the point since you say it's trustworthy," Johan continued and after seeing Andrew's gesture telling him to continue, he said, "Last time I visited, you told me you had something called a vitality drink".
At that moment Johan paused and Andrew was surprised, as he didn't think Johan needed that at his age, although he had no idea why he thought so. Before long he regained his composure and hinted at him to continue.
"It just so happens that I have a very special client who needs this type of product and wanted to know a little more about it", Johan continued his idea, and before Andrew could say anything he spoke again.
"I am interested in this product, I would like to know mainly its potency and effects." Andrew was silent for a moment, Johan thought that Andrew was trying to find the words to explain, but actually, he was talking to Fluffy about it.
Andrew's pharmacology ability is very strange because he could produce any medicine as long as he had bought the prescription from the system, but it was not that he knew how to do it, nor its effects, he just did it as if it were natural, even if someone was watching meticulously while he was doing it, you would have to be a genius in this field to produce it at 80% of the real thing, so he asks Fluffy about it.
"Master, the vitality drink should be among the top 10 sexual stimulants for men in this world and it has no side effects at all, it is more I dare to say that if the person who takes it is not stimulated, it is because his tool It doesn't work", answered Fluffy confidently.
Hearing that Andrew replied to Johan, "Mr. Johan the vitality drink is one of the most powerful stimulants for men known, I even dare to boast of being in the top 10."
The three present in the office were surprised by the words said, as they sounded like a boast, but then they thought, "Every merchant exaggerates a little to sell", so Johan asked again, "Side effects?", and the answer surprised him again, "None".
Johan did not fully believe Andrew's words, but knowing the baron's importance in his trade relations with the nobles, he decided to believe him, but before he could speak again, Andrew said, "However, the manufacturing process is complex and only I can offer you 10 daily doses".
At first, Johan thought that he would not be able to get the vitality drink, but later he understood that Andrew was only saying it to raise the price, little could he know, that this was not the case, but reality, but no one clarified that.
After that, they went in to discuss the price. Johan did not need much, since the only customer was the baron, but even so, he did not intend to spend too much, however, he was surprised that it was not expensive, since the price was the same as was offered to the customers in the Heavenly Palace and without delay, he bought 10 jars.
After closing the deal, Carolina went out in search of the vitality drinks, while Johan and Andrew chatted about unimportant topics and after Carolina returned and delivered the drinks to the butler, Johan paid what was agreed and they left.
Left alone in the office, Carolina couldn't help commenting, "I thought you'd raise the price when you said it was hard to do," to which Andrew smiled and replied, "I can't do that, because we'd have to raise the price for the sale of the palace's clients in the same way, besides it was not a strategy, it is the reality ".
"Why not hire an apothecary and produce more?" Carolina asked again, placing her lover in a difficult position, since he could not explain the fact that he could not teach something that his body did by nature and without knowledge.
Being in a bind, he kept silent and asked Fluffy for a solution, but he was disappointed because he did not offer him anyway out, and with no other way to do he could only say, "I can't do that, in the future I will explain better, but for the moment it is better to drop the subject."
The answer did not satisfy Carolina who looked at him questioningly, but she did not ask again, because she could see that Andrew had his difficulties, and sighing she said, "Okay, I'll let it go for now."
Andrew could see the dissatisfied expression on Caroline's face, but he still wasn't ready to tell her that he was a god-wannabe and that he had a system that would do everything for him.
He certainly trusted her, but he still hadn't gotten to the point where he could reveal all his secrets to her, that would take time, but he also knew that not being able to mass produce would be problematic in the future, especially knowing that there were many good things in the system, which in the future they would be in great demand.
The vitality drink might not be very attractive to the general public, but that was one of the most basic medicines in the system, he had seen what was in the store and not only medicines but many other things that when he took them out in the light, mass production would be a necessity and that left him thinking, he needed to find a solution.
