Chapter 68: Did you go to the wrong place
? "I wonder what materials you two want to purchase?" Zhou Xuwen was straightforward and went straight to the topic without any small talk.
Li Yuan then flicked his fingers, took out a list and handed it over, saying, "This is the list. I don't know if you all have it here." "
Okay, let me take a look." Zhou Xuwen took the list respectfully and browsed it carefully, " Poria grass, ganshu flower, cypress grass, ginseng root and jade bark...this is the prescription of Jinli Dan." Li Yuan
nodded, and then asked: "Is there any?"
Zhou Xuwen put down the list and said: "Yes, but the quantity is not More."
"How many? Is there a hundred copies?"
"The alchemy materials business in Yanyan City mainly supplies to other places, and the inflow from other big cities is relatively small. I'm going to check, please wait a moment." Zhou Xu Wen said.
"Okay, let's wait here." Li Yuan responded, and then Zhou Xuwen stood up and left the room.
Not long after, Zhou Xuwen returned to the room.
He said with some embarrassment: "Brother, I'm afraid we can't meet your needs here."
"How many people are there?" Li Yuan frowned and asked.
Zhou Xuwen replied: "We happen to have a batch to be shipped out. Together with what the branch has reserved for Yanyan City's daily needs, we can provide eighty-one copies." Hearing this, Li Yuan thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Eighty-one
copies Just eighty-one. Look at how many Yuan Stones are needed in total." "
The total is 141,750 low-grade Yuan Stones. I can erase the fraction for you, a total of 140,000." Zhou Xuwen smiled. replied.
"President Zhou, look at how we purchased so much at one time, can the price be cheaper?" Li Yuan scratched his head.
Zhou Xuwen was a little embarrassed and said bitterly: "Brother, this price is already very cheap. To be honest, because you were arranged by the city lord's palace, you didn't charge a price." "Okay, just 140,000 low-grade Yuan stones. President
Zhou You ask someone to prepare the medicinal materials. I'll pay you 40,000 low-grade Yuanshi, and for the 100,000, you have to ask the City Lord's Mansion for it." Li Yuan smiled lightly.
"Understood, the person who came from the City Lord's Mansion has already given instructions last night. I will immediately arrange for someone to coordinate the preparations. Please sit down for a while," Zhou Xuwen said respectfully.
Li Yuan said politely: "Then we have President Lao Zhou. In addition, if there are any materials for refining Jinli Dan, please keep them for me. I will come to you every half month to pick them up." "Okay.
You Wait a moment, everyone, I'll get ready right now." Zhou Xuwen nodded.
After Zhou Xuwen walked out of the room, Li Yunqing asked doubtfully: "Xiao Yuanzi, are the materials for refining the true elixir so expensive?"
Li Yuandao: "It's not bad. If these materials can be used to refine a three-line Jinli elixir, then I got my money back."
...
Yanyan City, in an inn.
Li Yuan took out the Qiankun Cauldron and began to prepare Jin Lidan.
He has refined a lot of Yanli pills, and standing in front of the furnace, he has the aura of an alchemy master.
After everything was ready, he opened the lid of the cauldron, threw the ingredients one by one into the Qiankun cauldron, and started refining.
Tamago skin, refined.
Cypress grass, refined.
Ganshu flower, refined.
Poria cocos, refined.
Ginseng Lian root, refining is complete.
...
More than an hour later, among the nine-color flames churning within the universe, a thumb-sized light brown elixir prototype appeared.
Under the calcining of nine-color flames, it slowly takes shape.
Slowly, the color of the elixir changed from light brown to dark brown, and a faint medicinal fragrance emitted from the Qiankun Cauldron.
There is a medicinal fragrance wafting out, indicating that the elixir is about to take shape.
Less than half an hour later, a very light energy wave spread from the Qiankun Cauldron, frightening the birds that came to smell the scent of the medicine on the roof. After screaming a few times, they quickly flew away.
Li Yuan waved his hand gently, and the nine-color flame was quickly extinguished.
As the nine-color flames in the cauldron dissipated, a dark brown round elixir about the size of a thumb with a faint luster appeared in the Qiankun Cauldron.
"It's finally a pill." Li Yuan wiped the sweat from his forehead and let out a breath.
He had expected the difficulty of refining Jin Lidan, but it was still beyond his imagination.
"Little aunt, bring me a jade box." Li Yuan pondered for a moment and then said to Li Yunqing, who had been standing by.
Li Yunqing took a high-quality green jade box from the round table in the room, walked to Li Yuan, and opened it.
Li Yuan waved his palm towards the Qiankun Cauldron, and the lid of the cauldron opened. Then he grabbed it again, and a dark brown pill flew out from the cauldron. He then pointed at the green jade box, and the pill fell obediently. Inside the jade box.
"The medicinal fragrance of Jinli Dan is much stronger than that of Yanli Dan. It is indeed a true elixir."
Li Yunqing said with emotion as he looked at the elixir in the jade box.
"It's just a second-line Jinli Dan." Li Yuan shook his head helplessly, "Unfortunately, it was a bit difficult to refine it for the first time, and it didn't produce the third-line quality."
Li Yunqing comforted: "There are still eighty copies left. With the materials, I believe you will be able to refine the Jinli Pill with three lines."
After resting for an hour, Li Yuan started the furnace to refine the Jinli Pill again.
After having a refining experience, he was more methodical this time, and the refining time was shortened by 10%, but he still failed to refine the three-line elixir.
In the next few days, Li Yuan guarded the furnace almost all day, refining the Jinli Pill. It was extremely hard, but in the end he was unable to refine the Jinli Pill with three lines.
Inadvertently, six days passed.
On this day, he finally refined a three-marked Jinli Pill.
When Li Yunqing saw the three-pattern elixir in the jade box, he was quite excited.
"Xiao Yuanzi, you succeeded."
"Haha, I didn't expect that the three lines of Jinli Dan would be so difficult to refine." Li Yuanhan said with a smile.
He planned to refine all the materials purchased by the Yunliu Chamber of Commerce into elixirs, sell them, and then use his time to improve his cultivation. If he could reach the late stage of Yuanli Realm, he could agree to the invitation of the City Lord's Mansion.
.........
There is a relatively famous alley in Yanyan City called Chang'an Alley, which is a place frequented by those in the city who are in the Yuanli Realm and the Taoxu Realm.
There is an elixir shop here called "Juantang", which is the only place in the city that sells high-quality elixirs.
Juantang is a business name of the Wanmeng Chamber of Commerce that specializes in the elixir business in some places.
The Wanmeng Chamber of Commerce is one of the six major chambers of commerce in Xiayang City, the capital of Daxia. Its president, Wan Xianyun, is one of the four king-level alchemists in the Daxia Dynasty.
There are dozens of second- and third-rate forces in Great Xia attached to the Chamber of Commerce, and the Yangyan City Jiang family is one of them.
"Boy, what elixir do you want to buy?"
A young man in a green robe and a woman in a green skirt entered the Ju'an Hall, and a man in brocade clothes inside greeted them warmly.
"Brother, we don't want to buy elixirs. We want to sell some elixirs to your store." Li Yuan looked back and forth in the store, and then said with a smile.
Hearing this, the waiter changed his face instantly and said: "Come to the elixir shop to sell elixirs? This is the first time I have heard of it. Little brother, are you in the wrong place?" (
