Chapter Eighty-One: Leaving the Fire and Growing Roots
As soon as Ye Kuan walked out of Miaoqi Zhai, he turned around and walked towards a shop near the center of Fang City. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The shop is decorated in a grand manner, with a plaque depicting three large lacquer characters, the green leaf number.
The Aoba is the shop of the Ye family, and the Ye family, as one of the four major families in Chongcheng, naturally has a store set up here.
The green leaf number in Wanbaofang has two shops, and the two shops cover an area of half an acre, which is quite atmospheric at a glance.
Ye Kuan walked into the shop on the right, which was dedicated to selling materials, and the shop on the left was dedicated to selling treasures.
The Ye family does not have an alchemist, so there is no pill for sale, not only the Ye family, but also the three major families with alchemists in the remaining city of Chongcheng, there is still no pill for sale in the store of Wanbaofang.
This is because the pills refined by the three are more than thirty percent less effective than the pills sold in the five pill shops in Wanbaofang.
It is also a pill that improves the cultivation of the Juyuan period, and the efficacy is worse by three percent, so the Yuan Shi who went to Wanbaofang to buy the pill naturally knows how to choose.
For various reasons, the finished products of pills and treasures, which rely on technology and prescriptions, are extremely profitable industries, and the profitability of pills far exceeds that of treasures.
It's very simple, as long as the treasure weapon is not damaged, you can continue to use it, and the elixir is gone as soon as it is used.
It is precisely because the pill is the most profitable person in the Fang Market that the forces in the Fang Market have a tacit agreement to unite and squeeze out the three major families.
Any buying and selling can be made, but the buying and selling of pills can't be allowed!
Of course, the three major families who were the head snakes in the city were not reconciled, and the efficacy of the refined elixir was not as good as that of people, so they would reduce the price, and it would still be very profitable anyway.
As a result, it was back to the scene of the three major sects invading Chongcheng strongly, and the united forces lowered their prices one after another, which was the same as the price of the pills of the three major families.
When the three major families fall, the combined forces will follow, all the way down to the cost price, the joint forces will no longer decline, and the three major families will not trade at a loss.
The three major families, which were inferior to the united forces in all aspects, withdrew gloomily from the pill industry in Chongcheng.
Since the pills can't be sold, then they can be refined and used by the Yuanshi in the family, although this will not improve the family much.
After all, selling two yuan stones and one pill, one will earn more than one yuan stone after removing the cost, and the family has a hundred yuan, as long as you sell a hundred, you can earn one pill for each of the family yuanshi, compared to the family yuan shi wasting cultivation time to go out to earn a yuan stone to buy the pill in the Hui clan, I don't know how many times better, and the profit of the pill is far more than that.
It was precisely because of the restriction of the pill industry of the three major families that the Ye family, which was the weakest back then, was able to persevere, otherwise the big family that stood at the top of the city today would only be the Qian and Li Chang families.
As soon as Ye Kuan walked into the store, a guy greeted him and said in a low voice: "Second son, everything you want is ready, please come with me." ”
Of the more than 7,000 people in the Ye family, only more than 100 are Yuanshi, and the rest of the clansmen are ordinary people.
These ordinary people will be given various positions according to their talents, such as planting, management, calculation, etc., while more ordinary people with mediocre talents will engage in some rough labor activities, such as the current shop boys.
Not only the shopkeepers, but also the farmers who work in the Ye family's farmland, and the subordinates who serve in the clan, are all clansmen with the blood of the Ye family.
This kind of situation is actually very common in the family, and only those small families will hire outsiders because of the lack of manpower in the clan to keep up with the development of the family.
"Second son, take a look, is the number right?" The guy led the way, introduced Ye Kuan into the inner hall of the store, and asked by pointing to a table of materials.
"Good, the number is correct. Ye Kuan glanced at it casually, counted the materials on the table, and nodded with satisfaction.
Long before buying the alchemy furnace, Ye Kuan used part of the yuan stone on his body to buy alchemy materials, since he was buying materials, the priority was naturally his own store.
After explaining the materials clearly, and then leaving the yuan stone, Ye Kuan went to buy the alchemy furnace, and there happened to be a hundred yuan stone left on his body at that time.
"Strange, what does the second prince want so many elixirs?" The guy walked out of the lobby, looked at the back of Ye Kuan, who had received the materials and left, and said secretly: "It's like, those common Yuanshi who occasionally think of prescriptions......"
Walking out of the gate of Fang City, Ye Kuan kept walking, rushed straight to Ye's house, passed through the gate of Ye's house, walked into the room, opened the magic circle, threw the sleeping little white pig on the table to the bed, and then poured the materials in the storage bag on the table in one go.
Three iron fire plants, three honeysuckle flowers, six vermilion fruits, and five parts of scorching antler powder......
"Three furnaces are rooted from the fire. Ye Kuan ignored McDull's dissatisfaction and abuse behind him, and evenly divided the materials that needed to be refined into two parts.
"Eighteen yuan stones can refine three furnaces from the fire to grow root pills, one furnace can only refine three, counting the three silver flowers harvested by the jade forest, one cost two yuan stones, it is really expensive!" Ye Kuan looked pained.
"In the early stage of Juyuan, if you take a Fire Root Pill, you can add five days of penance after refining, four days in the middle stage, and three days in the later stage, after three hundred, you can give birth to a trace of fire attribute root, and after nine hundred, you can achieve a human-level lower grade fire attribute root. Thinking of the efficacy of the elixir that was about to be refined, Ye Kuan could only comfort himself, "I hope it is really as miraculous as the prescription says, otherwise, ...... It's a big loss......"
"What!?" McDull's little eyes on the bed widened, stopped the abuse, and looked at Ye Kuan in disbelief, looking at the materials on the table, "The elixir refined from these garbage can make you give birth to a fire attribute elemental root!?"
"It can only generate the lowest and lowest grade fire attribute elemental roots, and if this acquired elemental root is to advance to another level, it will be much more difficult than the innate generated elemental root. Ye Kuan knew what McDull was shocked about, and explained: "And the most important point is that mortals who don't have a Yuan Root want to rely on this elixir to give birth to a Yuan Root, and they have to pay a very high price. ”
"I see, then you can practice slowly, I will continue to cultivate, don't bother me if you have nothing to do. McDull's face faded from shock, and she collapsed on the soft sheets, and soon fell asleep.
Although McDull lives in the territory of the human race, and after signing a contract with Ye Kuan, he regards Ye Kuan as a close relative, but he still can't change the fact that McDull is a primordial beast and belongs to the beast clan.
For the beasts, McDull has no sense of joy, but for the human race, McDull has a bad feeling.
If Ye Kuan's elixir can create a large number of Yuanshi, then the first thing to be harmed at the first moment must be the beast clan that is adjacent to each other, and the beast clan is still the same clan as McDull in the final analysis.
Without McDull to disturb him, Ye Kuan pulled aside the materials on the table, took out the three toad stoves and placed them in the center of the table.
The three-toad furnace is made of purple refined copper, and the furnace body is mixed with the front line guided by Gangyuan stone powder, and mixed with blood flint powder to maintain firepower.
The three feet of the three toad furnaces are all in the shape of a fire toad spitting fire on its head, but there is a lot of luck among the three fire toads that are the feet of the furnace.
The fire toad is hollow, and there is a lid on its back, which can be used to put some special fire coals, and the function, of course, is to make fire alchemy.
As the worst alchemy furnace, the fire toad furnace is naturally used by the Yuan Shi of the Juyuan Period, and the elixir of the Yuan Shi cannot be refined with ordinary fire, and the Yuan Shi of the Ju Yuan Period is difficult to generate Yuan Huo stably for a long time in addition to the fire attribute Yuan Root, so the Three Toad Furnace has such a design, and the hollow fire toad can be put into the fire charcoal that generates the Yuan Huo.
Three pieces of charcoal made of red wood were put into the three fire toads, Ye Kuan stretched out his index finger, and a cluster of white flames came out from his fingertips, igniting the three coals.
Subsequently, while the furnace was heating, Ye Kuan began to pound the material.
