Chapter 22 Awarding Yourself an Award
The effects of the potions made by the arcanists are naturally good, and they can keep you young forever and even turn you back to youth. Richard's potions that reduce the effects are still a dimensionality reduction blow to the cosmetics of this era.
In the laboratory, Richard was making a potion. After being processed, the potion began to turn into liquid under the effect of magic. After a burst of magical light, the properties of the potion just made stabilized.
Next, Richard began to add a drop of potion into distilled water. One drop of potion was about one tenth of a milliliter, and then added it into ten liters of distilled water. He then added some other useless elements to increase the fragrance, and finally obtained a blue liquid that was faintly shimmering.
Take out a crystal bottle and fill it with liquid. The aqua blue liquid has a dreamy color against the backdrop of the crystal bottle.
"It should have succeeded." Richard said with a smile.
"Scan the system."
There was a flash of light, and the properties of the liquid in front of him appeared before his eyes.
[Distilled water containing a very small amount of elf tears]
Effect: Can restore skin activity in a short period of time, skin activity +2, skin smoothness +2, elasticity +2, the effect lasts for 72 hours.
Well, the system doesn't even recognize this thing as a medicine.
Although the system does not recognize it, it’s fine as long as it works.
If the effect is so good that one use can keep you youthful for several years, then how can he make money?
The effect of this potion can delay cell aging, maintain and resist cell oxidation, replenish cell moisture and vitality, eliminate skin dull pigmentation, spots and wrinkles, revitalize cells, and make the skin firm, radiant and elastic.
At the same time, there are other medicines that can improve the skin, make it white, keep it youthful, moisturized and smooth, and eliminate scars. They are definitely the first choice for those aging ladies and Hollywood actresses.
It can be said to be a friend of women.
Because this was a castrated version of the Elf's Tears potion that was diluted 100,000 times, Richard finally named it "Elf's Tears".
Richard is not bragging, this kind of cosmetics can achieve those effects. The most important thing is that the raw material is the magic potion in the botanical garden. After being improved by Richard, it can be industrially produced.
Of course, the original liquid of Elf's Tears needs to be refined by magic.
In order to keep it secret, Richard also put a lot of effort into the preparation method. He planned to use the golem to produce the original liquid, because all the raw materials came from his botanical garden. As long as he controlled the raw materials, he would not be afraid of others imitating him.
Even if someone secretly learns the preparation method, it will be useless without the raw materials.
After the production was completed, Richard prepared several sets, including twelve bottles of toner, lotion, face cream, facial mask, etc., packed in 50 ml crystal bottles. The price of each basic set is about two thousand US dollars.
Then send them to Cathaway and Madison respectively so that they can experience it.
As for the cost, well, that's a trade secret! I can't tell you.
In general, Richard's gross profit margin is about 90%, and the net profit is 85%, and the profits of high-end cosmetics will be even higher.
In this era, the monthly income of workers in the Lighthouse Country is between 1,500 and 2,000 US dollars, and the income of white-collar workers is even higher. 2,000 US dollars is still affordable. Next, Richard began to prepare to establish a company and purchase equipment to produce "Elf Tears" cosmetics.
Of course, before producing these products, Richard also plans to apply for an association.
The next day, a man in a neat suit walked into a New York government office building, approached an office worker and said, "Hello, I want to register an association."
"What association do you want to register?"
"Global Association for the Study of Life Biology."
"There is no duplicate name, you can apply for registration." The staff searched on the computer and gave a positive reply.
"You need to provide company application materials, provide valid shareholder identity certificates, and prepare a registered capital of US$10,000 for review."
That's right, he was planning to register an association. In fact, many associations, funds, organizations, societies, etc. in the world can register companies, and even sects can be registered in the Lighthouse Country.
The Lighthouse Country can be said to be the country with the most religions in the world, and also the country with the most cults in the world. Only South Korea can compete with it.
Remember, even the Federal Reserve is a private bank.
Richard applied for the association using Charlie's identity, and a few days later, the Global Life Biology Research Association was successfully registered. Then Richard rented an office in an office building in New York, hired two clerks, and gave them a company brochure. In just one week, the Global Life Biology Research Association was officially established.
After the association was established, the first thing Richard did was to issue himself a certificate. Charlie Howard became the chairman of the Global Life Biological Research Association, the chief life scientist, and the chief evaluator. He also made a lot of certificates, trophies, and medals. In order to reduce costs, he specially customized them from flower growers, which were cheap and of good quality.
When you sell skin care products and health products in the future, you can directly print "Strongly recommended by the Global Life Biology Research Association" or "Won the "Global Life Biology Research Association Gold Award" and so on, and the level will be instantly raised.
Then Richard hired a lawyer to help him find several cosmetics factories that were about to go bankrupt or had already gone bankrupt to acquire, and also hired a professional manager to help him manage the company.
George Brian was a professional manager he hired. When he learned that Richard was going to produce cosmetics, he was not optimistic at all. He agreed to be the manager purely for the money.
Although he was not optimistic, George Bryan was fully qualified as a professional manager. Accompanied by him, Richard followed the lawyer to inspect several factories for sale.
The size of the factory, the age of the equipment, the workers, the location of the factory and the quotation all had to be taken into consideration. Finally, after screening, four suitable factories were found.
Richard didn't have much money to collect now, so he had to spend frugally. Although Frank helped him raise funds, there were too many places to spend money.
Richard spent a day visiting four companies. Among them, the factory with the newest equipment and the largest plant was the Conderson Factory, which produced various facial masks, essences, creams, etc.
At that time, the boss invested one million US dollars and ambitiously wanted to enter the cosmetics industry. As a result, he was beaten by the cosmetics industry. Although he did not lose money, the profit was extremely low. The disadvantage was that it was a bit far from the city.
The other Avis factory was closer to the city center and had better public security, but the equipment was much older and more expensive. Richard finally chose the Conderson factory.
