Train Wisdom (using time)

You give her the hundred gold, and she responds, "very well, let's begin by having you watch my apprentice at work for a few days." "That's it?" "Yes, that's it. Once you get the hang for what she's doing, you can start preparing ingredients and recipes." You sigh, but have already paid the coin. You set yourself to the rather boring task of paying attention to her apprentice. Suddenly, the apprentice turns to you and asks you to dissolve something under your tongue. You give her an inquisitive look, but she responds, "this is a litmus test drug. It won't have any perceivable effect on you, I promise." You shrug, and since she's insisting do as she asks. "Okay now please open your mouth, I need to see the color of your tongue before it fades." You open your mouth, and see responds with, "just so you know, you're pregnant. If you want to fix that before you can't anymore, you should back out and take some of the money you paid to my master to buy some elven abortion drug." You stare, agast that she knew so quickly. She shrugs, "you staying here to learn, or grabbing some abortion drug?"

You shrug, and decide to keep training. She responds with, "very well then, pay attention to what I do for the next few days." You heed what the apprentice is doing, and take careful note of the methods she uses on the various plants and herbs. After a few days, you begin to notice that she's using very specific methods for some of the plants, and start noticing the minute difference in method. After you successfully learn these, the master speaks up. "Very well then, now you'll prepare ingredients while my apprentice makes the recipes."

Over the next several weeks, you pick up several of the recipes, at least if all the ingredients are there before you. By the time you complete you training, you ability to pick out and discern between details had significantly increased.
