902: Chapter 93, Big Deal_3 902: Chapter 93, Big Deal_3 “Please!”

It was somewhat amusing, actually.

Hudson had been a Noble for so many years, yet he had never visited the pleasure quarters.

The life of debauchery among the Nobility that was spoken of in legends remained unexperienced by him; instead, his constant companions had been the sounds of clashing iron and the chaos of battle.

Perhaps after the war was over, he should take the opportunity to see what he was missing.

Otherwise, he would fall short of topics when boasting with others.

…

“Your Marshal, the Kingdom will take all of these potions you have!”

Upon hearing the words of Prime Minister Duke Newfoundland, Hudson nearly spat out the mouthful of tea he had.

What had given them the illusion that the Kingdom had the capacity to take in all the potions he possessed?

If the Kingdom truly dared to clear out his stock, they might as well be prepared to declare bankruptcy tomorrow!

If he were willing, Hudson could produce a hundred versions of the Maturity Potion in a single day.

The exact composition wasn’t a big deal; the key was that they worked.

Even if they wanted to analyze the composition, the initial samples provided would be enough.

The rest of the potions were meant to go into the stomachs of Magical Beasts.

In fact, most Magic Potions had an anti-leakage mechanism; once the bottle was opened, it had to be used immediately, or else it would quickly deteriorate in quality.

Hudson didn’t play that game.

His main goal was to ensure that even if others figured out the formula, they couldn’t counterfeit his potions, without unnecessarily increasing production costs.

“Chancellor, I have a commitment with everyone else; surely I can’t breach the agreement!

If the Kingdom needs some, you may take away fifteen thousand potions first.

The price is five hundred gold coins each, as we have previously agreed upon.”

No sooner had Hudson’s words hit the floor than the faces of the three listeners turned quite the shade.

Being in close proximity gave them the advantage, and the Magical Beasts at hand naturally were the first to complete the potion tests.

The effects were not only significant on the Sub-dragon beasts but also astonishing even on the other Magical Beast Juveniles.

One would have assumed that a Magic Potion with such low side effects would have a low production capacity.

In order to seize the initiative, the Kingdom naturally wanted to strike first.

Who could have known that Hudson’s initial measurement unit would be in the thousands?

Constantly claiming that a large amount of precious herbs were used, just where was the preciousness?

It seemed that this claim wasn’t entirely incorrect.

Analysis of the Potion’s composition did reveal an unknown herb.

According to a few Master of Magic Potion, it somewhat resembled both Giant Dragon feces and urine and Earth Bear urine and feces.

But with only a similarity in composition and no actual comparison samples, everyone was in the dark about what exactly had been added to the Potion.

After all, it was the Magic World, unsuited for scientific analysis.

Many herbs with identical compositions had completely opposing effects.

The formula, technique, and temperature used in Potion-making… all could affect the potency.

The potions provided by Hudson were an absolute tangled mess; nobody could make sense of the principles behind them.

In the Continent of Aslante, things that couldn’t be understood weren’t necessarily impressive, but anything with extraordinary effects that couldn’t be comprehended was definitely remarkable.

Rarity breeds value; if the production was indeed very low, the Kingdom would naturally clear the shelves immediately.

Now that the production unit was in the thousands, it clearly had no relation to scarcity.

Fifteen thousand potions?

That would be seven and a half million gold coins.

For the Alpha Kingdom, which was struggling financially, allocating such a substantial amount of funds at once was indeed a pressure.

“Your Marshal, we don’t need that many.

The Kingdom will buy three thousand five hundred potions, and The Royal Family will procure two thousand potions, making a total of five thousand five hundred potions.”

Prime Minister Duke Newfoundland said somewhat awkwardly.

Quite a hilarious blunder had been made, but there was no helping it; the overall budget was limited.

The number of Magical Beast Juveniles they had was finite, and it wasn’t even certain they would be able to use up all the potions.

After all, these Maturity Potions were intended for Junior Magical Beast Juveniles, and each Magical Beast didn’t require a large quantity.

“No problem, I’ll arrange for Maxim to deliver the goods right away, and you can come to collect them tomorrow,” Hudson said, unperturbed.

As long as there was no haggling, everyone remained good friends.

Of course, if he really couldn’t appease them, he would consider throwing in a few extra potions, but the price was definitely non-negotiable; that was a matter of principle.

“Your Marshal, if the production of potions is high, we can distribute them to the countries on the Northern Continent that are threatened by Different Races.

What do you think?

Of course, we won’t support just anyone.

If you have any quarrel with someone, we can list them as a prohibited buyer,” Marquis Delgado said, testing the waters.

True to his role as Minister of Finance, he could spot an opportunity for profit.

The proposal was cloaked in the guise of offering help but was really about taking the opportunity to make a profit.

The Magical Beast Legion project of recent years had seen participation from various countries on the Northern Continent.

Currently, each of these countries had a bunch of Magical Beast Juveniles clamoring for food.

If they could be matured into adulthood directly, it would be a significant boost to the military strength of the Northern Continent.

Even if the price was a bit higher, the countries would have no choice but to accept it grudgingly.

With Hudson’s capabilities, naturally, he could also spread the potions elsewhere, but that would take a lot of time.

Perhaps before the potion could even be promoted, some countries might have already met their demise.

By leveraging the power of the Kingdom, the process would undoubtedly be accelerated.

What was most crucial was that the wholesale price wasn’t affected; Marquis Delgado wasn’t asking for a discount.

“If it could aid the countries of the Northern Continent and contribute to the great cause of the Human Race’s resistance against Different Races, every Noble of the Kingdom would be bound by duty!” Hudson said with a look of sanctity.
