Tutorial[]
- Selling Potions
Potions you have concocted must be stocked before they can be sold (Potions with exactly identical efficacy cannot be stocked for sale at the same time). Market News is a guide to selling potions: The more the efficacies and characteristics of your potions can fulfill market demands, the greater your sales volume will be and thus the greater your revenue.
During each operation cycle, Paimon will help record potion efficacies and characteristics that are in demand. If you discover a potion with efficacies and characteristics that are even more suited to the current market, Paimon will update the record.
During each operation cycle, Paimon will help record potion efficacies and characteristics that are in demand. If you discover a potion with efficacies and characteristics that are even more suited to the current market, Paimon will update the record.
When each operation cycle ends, your potion sales will be totaled up, with the financial assessment based on sales volume. Check your financial report to see if your potions are in tune with the market demand.
- Custom Orders
Special guests will sometimes drop by during an operation cycle. Concoct potions in accordance with their orders, and you might be able to help them out...
- Distributors
While the shop is operating, potion distributors who can help sell potions may drop in. These distributors will have clear requests for the efficacy and amounts of potions they want.
Develop a distribution strategy with them and select two advantageous strategies out of several to gain great benefits.
As these distributors will not change their area of operations, these advantageous strategies will be fixed for each location.
Analyze their sales and financial statements to see if your business tactics are working.

End of cycle 13 | Long time no see, most reliable Honorary Knight. I heard that you've reinvented yourself once again, this time as Jean and Lisa's "business consultant." Can't say I'm surprised. I've been leading the Cavalry Company on a long-distance training march over the past few days, and just when we arrived back in the neighborhood, a pair of adventurers discovered a band of bandits were taking advantage of the chaos caused by some monsters. So, I ordered some delivery for the Company, a little appetizer before taking care of those troublemakers... I never imagined the meals would come with complementary potions which restored the Knights' strength and reaction times to what they were before the exhausting training. The cleanup operation went surprisingly smoothly. It was only afterward that I learned the potions came from your shop. You're doing well, I see? As the Cavalry Company received your assistance, I naturally must write this letter of thanks. Also, please accept this payment as a token of gratitude from us. I hope that we will have more opportunities for such fruitful cooperation as "colleagues." |

End of cycle 17 | In my capacity as the Guardian of Aaru Village and on behalf of the other guards and all who travel the desert, allow me to express my sincerest thanks. Not long ago, strange happenings were afoot here in the desert, with hordes of monsters roaming near Aaru Village, harassing residents and travelers alike. It was our great fortune that the potions you created were critical in helping the travelers avoid danger and reach our village. After the guards drank them as well, they became even more valiant in driving back the monsters. Soon, I shall lead them in an offensive and restore Aaru Village's tranquility. Should you have time, please, come to our village for a spell. I shall prepare our finest meats and drinks for you. |

  Lyney |
End of cycle 20 | Thanks so much for those amazing potions you and Paimon made! Lynette and I have been rehearsing nonstop for a whole slew of new magic tricks lately, and we completely wore ourselves out to the point of not even being able to concentrate properly... Luckily, Freminet brought us a kind of invigorating potion, and it cleared our minds right up! He said a merchant from Sumeru was reselling it from another supplier. I found the merchant, and after exchanging a few words, I learned that the inventors of the potion were none other than you and Paimon! Bravo, no less than I'd expect! Thanks to your help, Lynette and I successfully mastered a brand new program for the penultimate act of our show. We'll send you an invitation to our next performance in advance, so be sure not to miss it! |

End of cycle 22 | I hope this humble token of my boundless gratitude for the kindness and care your noble selves have shown will prove of some use to your honorable endeavor. Hmm... A more relaxed tone might be better, lest this seems like some overly-stilted business letter from the Feiyun Commerce Guild... Recently, I've been reading too many books with novel conceptions, and find myself still pondering the ideas therein even after the tolling of the midnight bells, unable to embrace the sweet solace of sleep. My household servants recommended a certain calming potion, and it was most effective, completely curing my insomnia. After making detailed inquiries into the provenance of said potion, the reply came: the golden-haired traveler! Ah, such fortuitous fate! The reputation of your alchemical emporium precedes it, praise for it pouring from the lips of all, for it has helped many conquer the conundrums that confounded them! Perhaps this too can be considered a form of "chivalry." I shall recommend your masterpiece to several author friends of mine, and perhaps soon you shall be known by the title of "Grand Master of Elixirs!" |
