The girl selling goods at the market had never seen money before.

However, it's important to understand that not every student has a family business to back them up, and not every student is wealthy. For them, factories are the most important means of obtaining funds.

As for science students, they usually don't know how to utilize this resource, so they choose to rent it out at a high price, collect rent to exchange it for money or other resources to improve themselves.

In short, everyone has their own way of using their resources, and Bai Jinxuan's choice was to develop a complete pharmaceutical production process and sell it herself.

She can sell her products on the black market, but underground, she can only sell them in the red-light district right now... Unfortunately, she can't earn much there yet.

However, it's not a big problem. With the treasure chest, the items she produces can be saved at any time. This powerful artifact has only occupied about 60 slots so far, which is more than enough space.

As long as you have the goods on hand, you don't have to worry about not being able to sell them.

Thinking of this, Bai Jinxuan became excited and drove her Black Knight quickly to the industrial area.

However, just as she parked her car and followed the route given by the smart bracelet to find the factory that belonged to her, she suddenly heard a girl crying.

Her attention was immediately drawn to it.

Is someone causing trouble next to my factory?

Bold!

I haven't even officially started work today, and this is the first thing I do. It's not a good omen.

I want to see what's going on.

Following the sound, after passing through several buildings, she saw a blue-haired girl kneeling on the ground at a corner, tightly holding the hand of another black-haired girl.

"Please don't go, I beg you. If you leave, I really don't know what I'll do."

"Just rent out the venue and equipment."

"Eh?"

The blue-haired girl's pupils contracted.

Seeing this, the black-haired girl took the opportunity to pull her hand away and looked at her with indifferent eyes: "Renting out the factory can stop the losses in time. Before it gets dark, it's still not too late to complete the formalities today."

"What about our promise? What about our vow to sell magic picture books all over the country? That was... the result of both of our hard work...!"

"Enough! That kind of fantasy should have ended long ago! You should understand, right? The dismal revenue figures for magic picture books... These utterly boring picture books, abandoned by the market, purely the author's self-entertainment flop, have absolutely no future!"

"But...but..." Tears streamed down the blue-haired girl's face. "I really want to make a magic picture book with you, Xiaodie!"

Upon hearing this, the black-haired girl clenched her fists and roared, "Do you think I don't want to produce them? I single-handedly set up most of the scripts, story construction, and processes... the entire production line for magic picture books!"

"Do you know how I felt when I saw that magic picture book emerge from the device? It was like my own child!"

"But we've sacrificed so much for it, and then what?!"

She turned around, gritted her teeth, and then burst into tears.

Look at yourself now, look at us now!

"Our grades aren't improving, our funds are completely depleted, and we only have a handful of credits left. We've reached this critical juncture, and you're still stuck on 'magic picture books'! Do you know that next week, we'll all be kicked out of No. 1 High School?"

"For people like us who are not valued, without the support of schools, who else can provide us with free space and equipment to create magic picture books?"

"Enough! I never want to see a magic picture book again!"

As she spoke, in front of the blue-haired girl, she tore a book in half, threw it on the ground, and then, choking back tears, turned away...

They fled back.

Seeing this, the blue-haired girl wanted to chase after him, but she accidentally slipped and fell, and could only watch helplessly as he disappeared from sight.

At that moment, she completely broke down and burst into tears, walking into the factory where the lights were still on.

Behind the wall, Bai Jinxuan, who had witnessed everything, couldn't help but cover her mouth.

People's joys and sorrows are different. Although it's a bit immoral, she, who had no intention of gossiping, now finds herself wanting to laugh.

This person is so clumsy; they can even fall while running on flat ground.

However, it is truly tragic. If things are really as that black-haired girl said, objectively speaking, it would indeed be better to rent out the factory.

By the way, don't they want that picture book anymore?

Bai Jinxuan peeked out and saw the magic picture book, torn in half, lying quietly on the ground, looking rather pitiful.

She decided to give it a warmer home.

-------------------------------

Upon arriving at her factory, Bai Jinxuan didn't rush to operate any equipment. Instead, she carefully began piecing together the magic picture book in her hands.

A magic picture book is a prop that is somewhere between a magic book and a paper book. Although tearing it will damage its internal magic circuits, it is not impossible to 'weld' them back together with good skills.

She didn't listen to those magical 'books' for nothing.

Ten minutes later, Bai Jinxuan placed the repaired magic picture book on the table.

Because it was once torn up, it doesn't look very good, but anyway, it's still presentable!

Bai Jinxuan is very proud of her craftsmanship.

To be honest, this was the first time she had ever seen a magic picture book; she had only heard of such props before.

Just like a magic lesson taught in person, a magic picture book uses a similar illusionary form to present the inner story to you face to face.

It is said that powerful magic picture books can even be like Teacher Chen's illusions, allowing each reader to feel as if they are there, to have all five senses, and to enjoy the joy of first-person perspective.

However, the one I have here is clearly not up to that level.

It only edited the visuals and sound, and overall, it has a VR game feel from a previous life.

This is a story about 'growth', telling the tale of a hero who, in order to defeat an evil dragon, leaves his homeland, overcomes numerous obstacles, and endures countless hardships before finally arriving at the dragon's lair with his companions.

Unfortunately, the story ends with no resolution regarding who won between the hero and the dragon.

Although the plot is rather clichéd, the little stories, such as the minor crises on the hero's journey and the conflicts with his companions, are very captivating.

Overall, Bai Jinxuan felt that her first experience with the magic picture book wasn't bad.

After exiting the illusion, she could see that there were several slips of paper tucked into the front of the magic picture book.

Upon opening it, I found it densely packed with proposals.

Which equipment is used to mass-print magic circles, which place prints magic paper... every step is explained in great detail and with meticulous care.

Seeing this, Bai Jinxuan couldn't help but sigh, the author really loves this magical picture book.

She stood up, glanced around her base, and then rolled up her sleeves.

Although she doesn't produce magic picture books, after reading the other party's ideas and plans, she had many thoughts on the question of 'how to produce potions'.

"Let's begin! Bai Jinxuan Brand Medicine Factory is now officially open for business!"

Volume 1: Chapter 93: The Girl Who Became a Teacher

"That should complete the task."

Bai Jinxuan looked at the entire transportation assembly line and nodded in satisfaction.

Compared to large factories, her factory, with only one small piece of equipment, probably produces less than one-thousandth of the output.

Even so, it's not something that can be staged by human intervention alone.

She took out a magic detector from her handbag, checked and confirmed that the factory had no surveillance cameras, then pulled a fresh Rafflesia corpse out of thin air from the 'materials warehouse', sorted it briefly, and stuffed it into the testing box.

The testing box will detect the usable parts separately, and then automatically decompose them with laser. The excess will be conveyed into the trash can by a conveyor belt, while the pulp will go into the press.

This is only the part where the raw liquid is extracted. After that, there is concentration, bottling, and so on. In general, the equipment is fully automated. Bai Jinxuan's job is to keep adding raw materials into it.

After successfully creating the life-saving potion, she was certain that the production system was now complete.

The rest is just a matter of quietly making a fortune.

Since the equipment itself is a magical artifact, it doesn't make much noise when it's in operation. In addition, Bai Jinxuan is used to doing things secretly, so it has evolved into what it is now: production is carried out behind closed doors in broad daylight, and people who don't know the situation would think that no one is inside.

In reality, if other students wanted to run a factory, raw materials would be a huge expense. Those who were engaged in magic research and development were better off, as the cost of materials wouldn't be too high. But if they wanted to run a potion factory like Bai Jinxuan, they would probably lose a fortune.

The raw materials for monsters are specially transported to your Upper City No. 1 Middle School; the cost of this is terrifyingly high.

That's why Bai Jinxuan was so cautious. If her classmates found out she was producing potions and asked, "Where did you get the materials?" she would be very embarrassed.

If you answer that you bought it, people will definitely advise you that you're losing money, and if you don't listen and keep producing, the next time they see you, they'll ask again, "Why are you still producing medicine?"

How do I answer that?

Bai Jinxuan's gaze fell on the tattered magic picture book.

It's as if I could say that I'm pursuing my dream, so I'm willing to spend several times the price to buy monster raw materials to produce potions here?

She thought about it and realized that there was indeed such a possibility.

The stark examples are all around us.

It's a bit of dark humor.

After producing dozens of bottles of life potion, Bai Jinxuan stopped producing them. After all, her primary goal now was not to sell medicine, and there was no need to spend a lot of time on it.

The main purpose of this visit is to confirm that the equipment is usable. If there are any orders later, or if the stock of medicines is insufficient, then we can come back to produce.

So she packed her things, including the tattered magic picture book, and left the small factory.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, another day has passed.

Bai Jinxuan maintained her routine, attending classes during the day and going to the underground city at night. With the help of Greed, she had almost forgotten what it felt like to sleep.

It's hard to imagine that I used to waste more than 7 hours a day sleeping.

That's enough for her to wander around the first, second, third, and fifth floors of the dungeon twice.

Lazy, lazy, that's exactly what I'm talking about, Yao Yao!

Upon seeing the message Murong Yao sent her, Bai Jinxuan unconsciously let out a soft hum.

[Murong Yao: Good morning, Xiao Xuan, have you been sleeping well lately?]

[Bai Jinxuan: Good morning! I took a shower after school yesterday and went to sleep. I've been sleeping soundly until now, it's so comfortable.]

She was completely submerged in the medicinal solution, a smile playing on her lips, her hands rapidly tapping on her phone.

[Murong Yao: Huh? Then you won't have time to train? I heard that No. 1 High School is very strict, and if your grades aren't good enough, you'll be expelled soon.]

Bai Jinxuan: It's no big deal, what's the point of exercising?

"Whatever, it's fine. I'm a specially admitted genius, I get extra perks."

On the other side of the screen, Murong Yao drank the last half bottle of energy potion, then tidied up a large stack of manuscripts containing incantations and magical patterns and placed them aside.

Amidst a dense array of empty bottles, my phone vibrated slightly.

She immediately picked up her phone, turned it on, and a smile spread across her face.

[Murong Yao: Then you'd better be careful not to get expelled from school!]

[Bai Jinxuan: You're wrapped too, remember to get some rest.]

And so, each with their own thoughts, the two turned around and threw themselves back into their own affairs.

After changing her clothes, Bai Jinxuan put on her smart bracelet, finished her housework, had a simple breakfast, and then headed to the indoor gymnasium.

Today is a science major course. Looking at the schedule, there's only one class like this about every two days, which is quite rare.

To be precise, it was extremely rare for Bai Jinxuan.

Because she didn't attend any tutoring classes or receive private instruction.

As the name suggests, tutoring classes supplement students' existing course schedules to further improve their learning efficiency. Private tutoring is even more advanced, offering one-on-one instruction that is available whenever needed.

As for the cost...

To put it simply, Bai Jinxuan could barely afford tutoring classes, but her ten million yuan wouldn't even cover a few private lessons.

The pressure of poverty suddenly came on.

Such a familiar smell.

"It seems like everyone in Class A has signed up for tutoring classes. Sigh, it looks like I'll have to be different again, just like I was in No. 5 Middle School."

Bai Jinxuan sat sideways on the black knight, murmuring to herself. The wind lifted her silver hair and gently caressed her melancholy cheeks.

Major subjects are more formal than elective subjects. After all, strictly speaking, whether it is a weekly test or a joint test, a student's grades are based on their major subjects.

Therefore, the teachers of the major subjects are naturally not weak.
