Chapter 324：

? Wells was sitting in a restaurant in the town of Huxin, sulking and drinking. 35xs

A month ago, he was still a well-known alchemist in Jingyao City. He was a little famous and had his own workshop with a considerable income and no worries about food and drink.

However, since he took that **** job, he suddenly fell to the bottom of his life.

The matter started when an old customer introduced him to a big man. How big is the other party? In short, he can be easily crushed to death like a bug.

The dignitary stated that he had some physical problems and needed to turn to his alchemist.

Just when Welski maliciously speculated whether the other party was unsatisfactory in bed, the dignitary took off his hat, and saw that his head was almost bald, er, it is not accurate to say that he was bald, he was still a little stubborn Soldiers are holding their last positions.

"Mr. Alchemist, I'm not middle-aged yet, I don't want to go bald early"

The mourning in the words of the powerful is obvious, and it is obvious that they are worried about their current appearance and worse prospects.

"My lord, I am willing to accept your commission, but I may need many experiments and continuous improvement."

Wells took the job without hesitation, because it was an important opportunity for him to realize his class leap.

The old customer who introduced him has already said that as long as he can help this powerful man solve the problem, a baron's title will not be lost, even a viscount is unknown.

Baron, although it is the last title in the aristocratic system, it is still a nobleman, and its status is higher than that of knights. He was fascinated by the thought of those civilians standing in front of him and calling him "Lord Wells" respectfully. As long as he seizes this opportunity, future generations will thank him.

So Wells agreed on the spot without hesitation, but at that time he still had some hopes for it. The family had been engaged in the alchemy industry for several generations, and there happened to be an ancestral secret recipe related to the treatment of hair loss.

He made a request to let the other party try the medicine himself. The reason is that the constitution of each person is different. The medicine made is useful for one person but useless for another person. He has repeatedly promised that no harmful ingredients will be added to the medicine. .

The rich and powerful also agreed. This kind of big man must have many servants specially used for drug testing, and he is not very worried about Wells' actions.

The dignitaries were very happy and left Wells to share dinner that day, which made Wells feel honored, although the other party only had the attitude of giving it a try.

After he went back, he rummaged through the boxes and cabinets to find the secret recipe, and spent a week rushing to make the first version of the potion, which he couldn't wait to deliver to that high-ranking customer, and then went home to wait for the good news amid the eager anticipation of the other party.

A few days later, the other party's servant came and invited him to be a guest at home, and he was very polite in his words. Weisser was overjoyed, the first dose of the potion worked, it must be my wife's luck

However, when he happily came to the rich man's mansion, he almost fainted from what he saw.

I saw that the top of the opponent's head was completely bright, and those lonely soldiers who were still holding their positions were unfortunately killed.

"Look what you've done, idiot"

The dignitary pointed at his shiny forehead and flew into a rage, spitting all over the place, without any regard for his identity, it can be seen that he was already in a state of desperation.

"What kind of alchemist are you, I think you are a charlatan trying to gain fame"

"maggots in the gutter, rats in the sewer"

"I'm going to expose your face in public and ruin your reputation, just wait, you idiot"

Two big and three rough guards came up and detained Wells. He struggled and shouted for grievances.

"My lord, give me another chance, isn't this medicine for external use, it should be taken internally, or you can try again"

"Go away, you think I'll trust you again"

So he was stripped naked, shaved, and put in a cage with only a rag wrapped around his waist. He was displayed not far from the gate of the city for several days.

As a well-known alchemist, Wells even wanted to die at that time.

On the day he was released, he found that his store had also been smashed, and everyone around him knew how embarrassing he had been in the past few days and pointed at him.

"Father, I'm sorry for you." He sat on the door frame in a daze, his eyes glazed over, and he kept muttering to himself.

Two figures surrounded him.

"This is the unlucky guy who offended a certain important person"

"Yes, I saw him at the gate of the city, and I heard he was an alchemist."

One of them turned to Wells and asked, "Hey, can you hear me, man?"

Wells instinctively raised his head and looked at the other party, his eyes still dull.

"It's not because I was too stimulated, I'm stupid."

"try"

One person took out a piece of paper, "Do you know the words on it?"

Wells' mind was blank at the time, and he didn't think about it, so he just read it.

The other person slapped his thigh, "He really knows how to read. It doesn't matter if he is an alchemist or not, it's considered a job to pull him over. After the number of people is gathered, this month's bonus will be settled."

He said to Wells, "Brother, I think you can't get along in the capital. The Lord Gleiman in the northwest bay is recruiting talents. Do you want to try your luck" Wells was weak to answer.

"Just waiting for your words"

The man pulled Wells into a carriage.

It wasn't until two days later that Wells woke up and found himself sitting in a caravan. He quickly figured out his situation and he seemed to be recruited by some lord. After I asked, it turned out to be the Northwest Bay, isn't that a place where birds don't shit?

Although he can't get along in the capital anymore, with his ability, he can live in any other place, so why go to that ghostly place to make a living.

At that time, he was clamoring to get out of the car, but one person in the car took out a piece of paper to show him.

"Mr. Wells, according to the contract you signed with us, you need to serve Lord Greyman for at least five years."

"I haven't signed a contract, such a **** contract."

"Look carefully."

Wells took a closer look and found that his name was indeed signed on it, the handwriting was indeed his, and the content of the contract was indeed to serve an earl named Paul Greyman for 5 years.

"You and you are kidnapping me and I was not very conscious at the time"

"Oh Mr. Wells, you just offended a nobleman, don't you want to offend another nobleman?"

"You..." the alchemist pointed at the other party angrily and in fear, and then put down his hands weakly.

Indeed, he is just a commoner now, and even the lord of the Northwest Gulf is not something he can offend.

"Hey, let's take one step at a time"

Wells leaned weakly against the car window, feeling that his future was gloomy.
