Potion Craft: Alchemist Simulator

One of the vendors who stops by during your day is another alchemist. At first he has only "magic paper" for sale, to put more pages in your recipe book. On his second visit, his extra dialogue (when asking him "Do you have a shop of your own?") mentioned he would soon have alchemy machine parts I would be interested in.

On his third visit, on I think day 11 (maybe 10), he had the alchemy machine replacement for sale. The base cost is 1750, but you can haggle it.

Just save gold til you have 1750, and buy it from the wizard when he drops by.
