Chapter 50: CHAPTER 49

Johan had left with the energy drinks and the office was quiet again. Carolina had been focused on the improvement plans they were discussing when Johan arrived, while Andrew was talking to Fluff telepathically."Fluffy, is there a way to mass-produce the drugs?" Andrew asked. "Of course, there is", Fluffy replied with a bit of disdain in his voice, as if telling his master that he seemed like an idiot asking the obvious, but Andrew didn't care and kept asking, "Tell me how".

"It's quite simple really, the master only has to buy the [Synthesis] skill, and with it, you will be able to produce different amounts of a medicine or item as long as you have the raw materials and the recipe or blueprint", Fluffy answered as if it were general knowledge.

Andrew paid no attention to Fluffy's taunts and was just excited by that ability and promptly sought it out, only to be surprised at the fact that it cost 500,000 points and only allowed him to create 100 units a day of a single item or medicine.

In other words, if he used it to make vitality drinks, he could produce 100 a day if he had the materials, but during that day he couldn't use it again, which was a disadvantage, however, it was still better than what he could do now.

Furthermore, over time he could improve that skill and increase the number of products, so without hesitation, he bought the system synthesis skill and then said to Caroline, "Caro, darling, help me buy materials for birth control pills and vitality drinks for 200 units".

Carolina was surprised by the request, after all, that was the amount of a week and a half for the production of those elements, and, unable to contain her curiosity, she asked, "Are you thinking of increasing production?", to which Andrew responded with a resounding, "Yes".

"Didn't you say it would be difficult to do?" Carolina asked inquisitively, giving an icy look to her lover and boss, who could only smile awkwardly because his girlfriend had caught him and he didn't know how to explain himself.

After thinking for a few seconds, he could only say, "An idea just occurred to me that could work and I want to try it", Carolina didn't buy that excuse, but she knew that Andrew was hiding this from her for some reason or at least she thought that, however, she accepted the instruction.

Carolina left the office to get the materials. She would go to Johan's business that specialized in them and since they had a business relationship, she could make a good deal, besides, she didn't forget to take Oliver and another guard with her.

Andrew had warned her that she couldn't leave the Heavenly Palace without Oliver's company. If Oliver was in the Palace when she was going to leave, she had, it was an obligation, to leave with Oliver and another guard as escorts and if Oliver was not there, she had to leave with at least 4 guards.

When Andrew demanded that she was against it, she liked that Andrew cared about her, but it seemed too much for her to go out with 4 guards, so she refused, but Andrew was strict with this and in the end, she had to give in.

Luckily, Oliver was usually in the Heavenly Palace, so she only needed him and another guard, which isn't too flashy. While Carolina went to buy the raw materials for the two medicines, Andrew checked if the system had any prescriptions that would earn him good money and were not expensive.

He just checked the system screen without asking Fluffy, because he couldn't ask him something like, "I need a cheap medicine that produces a lot of money" because those were not criteria to filter in the system.

After going through the list for a while, he found nothing. There were too many options, so he decided to use Fluffy, "I need a skin rejuvenation recipe that can be created with common materials."

Andrew thought that these characteristics were possible to filter and he was not mistaken, because the list was quickly reduced to 5 options and Fluffy began to explain each one of them.

Honestly, they weren't very different, just that the materials to create them changed, and their function was similar, they cleansed the skin, making it more moisturized and soft.

The effect was not so powerful that whoever used it would reduce years in plain sight, but using it for a considerable period of time, it would definitely be noticeable, it would not be strange that a 40-year-old woman using this cream for a month, would see herself 35 or even at 30 years old.

Certainly, there were better positions and creams in this world for these effects, but they are all expensive and difficult to manufacture, which means that they are few for sale, and as the law of supply and demand says, if the first is low and the second high, the price rises.

Andrew knew that this cream would be a resounding success because, in any world, women always look for beauty, and that's why cosmetics were safe investments, the bad thing was that the formula of that cream cost 300,000 points and only had 280,000 points.

He lamented that he couldn't buy it, but he didn't get depressed, he knew that he could buy it in a few days, "I just need to fuck Carolina and I'll have the points", was what he thought.

It wasn't that he thought of Carolina only as a points machine, but if he could enjoy his beautiful woman and earn points at the same time, he would be stupid not to. While he was thinking about that, Carolina entered the office, "The materials are in the warehouse," she said.

"Are you already back? You didn't take a long time", Andrew said surprised, but Carolina looked at him strangely and answered, "What do you mean? It was almost three hours". Andrew raised an eyebrow in confusion and quickly glanced at the clock on the wall.

Indeed, a little more than three hours had passed since Carolina had left, he could not believe that he spent so much time looking at the system, especially the concentration he had was not normal, because he had completely forgotten about time, so he asked Fluffy, "What happened?"

"Master, nothing happened, you just took too much time in your search, it's similar to when you played or watched porn on the computer in your past life," Fluffy replied, trying to calm his anxiety.

"Are you sure? It's nothing like the euphoria from before, right?" Andrew mentally asked again, a little anxious, but Fluffy told him again, "It's nothing like that, master, you really just had too much fun, but It wasn't because of anything".

Hearing this, Andrew relaxed. He knew that Fluffy never did anything to harm him, so he put the subject behind his head and looked back at Carolina who looked at him like a freak and certainly seemed so, so he preferred not to speak and escape from the awkward questions.

Unfortunately for him, Carolina would not allow that, "What's wrong with you? You're acting strange". Andrew just looked at her without answering and then he looked away from her, which annoyed Carolina since he was hiding many things from her today and she didn't like that.

She got up from the sofa and walked up to him holding his face with both hands forcing him to look only at her who had a cold and angry expression, with a hint of concern, and said threateningly, "Tell me what the hell is wrong with you".

Having a beautiful lady so close would be every man's delight, but Andrew didn't think so. Carolina had a cold expression as usual, but her tone of voice was dangerous as if she cut you with a knife. She barely spoke and his back began to sweat cold, he knew that if he didn't tell her something that would convince her, it could well be his last day.

Andrew swallowed hard and after organizing some ideas he said nervously, "Caro, honey, I'm not hiding anything from you, I have an idea in mind that could generate a lot of money, but I still don't know if it will work, that's why I don't want to get ahead of myself".

Carolina looked at him carefully and processed his words, although they didn't seem false, they definitely weren't true either. She deduced that Andrew was only telling her half the story, but she knew she wouldn't get any more than that and she decided to let him go.

"So, what's the big idea?" Carolina asked as she returned to the sofa. Andrew thought about it for a few seconds before answering, "Well it's a cream that rejuvenates the skin".

Andrew was going to continue explaining when Carolina approached him again at high speed as if she wanted to kill him and holding him by the arms, she asked, "A what?" Then Andrew understood, every woman seeks beauty and Carolina is no different.

Seeing her so eager to know about the creams, Andrew could only smile and escaping from her clutches, he drew her to him, sitting her on his lap and after hugging her gently, he began to whisper all the details in her ear, half trying to tease her and half wanting to warm her up and animate the afternoon

Unfortunately, despite sharing a sweet moment, he couldn't convince Carolina to go any further, she excused herself by saying that they were working and he thought, "This girl just let her guard down our first night, but tonight you will fall one way or another".
