Chapter 438: Two Newcomers
The first-level healing pill was already a public formula, and almost everyone knew the refining method.
If you add ten kinds of medicine according to the most traditional formula, the effect of the refined pill will be ten percent, but if you use eight kinds of medicine, the effect of the medicine will be ninety percent five, but the remaining two flavored medicines can save one-fifth of the total cost.
Refining the first-level healing pill of eight materials, this is already a tacit acquiescence, and other passers-by and alchemists also feel reasonable when they hear it. On the contrary, this apprentice honestly followed the book, but was called a fool.
It is true that he is a little inflexible, but as long as there are two sides, Gu Lanyi does not think that this apprentice is very wrong.
Helin kept scolding the apprentice, and the people around him were used to hearing it, and after a while, they each dodged away. Gu Lanyi walked in, looking like he was going to buy medicine, and then Helin stopped: "Don't go and greet the guests yet, you stupid." ”
"This girl......" Helin leaned over with a dry smile: "What do you want to buy?"
When he looked at Su Xin behind him, his eyes lit up and he laughed: "Ouch, it turned out to be Su Xin, what instructions does the elder have?"
Su Xin obviously disdained this person, and said with a light expression: "Father didn't order, just let me accompany Miss Gu to have a casual look." ”
This Helin is just a five-grade alchemist of the guild, who has always bullied the weak and feared the hard, licking her father like a dog, but being harsh and harsh to the people around her, which makes her dislike.
He Lin glanced at Gu Lanyi twice, and then recognized her, and was even more stunned: "Ouch, isn't this Miss Gu, look at my eyes...... Please, please, Miss Gu, please say what you need. ”
"What do you want to buy, guest?" the alchemy apprentice from Namu Ne also came over and stammered.
He Lin brushed her away and scolded: "Go and go, I don't have any eyesight, who asked you to come over, Miss Gu will be personally greeted by your master, you idiot, don't hurry up and serve tea." ”
Seeing that this alchemy apprentice was really leaving, Gu Lanyi said, "No need, you come here." What's your name?"
"Me?" the alchemy apprentice was dumbfounded.
"What are you, Miss Gu asked you, what a fool!" He Lin scolded him again, turned his head to Gu Lanyi and smiled attentively: "Miss Gu, this is my alchemy apprentice, called Tiemu, it's like a wood, I can't teach it......"
"Tiemu, let me ask you, what medicinal materials are needed to refine a first-grade healing pill, do you know?" Gu Lanyi looked at him.
Although she was somewhat satisfied with this person, she still had to confirm it.
"Yipin Healing Pill?" Tie Mu scratched his head, and then said: "The "Elementary Dan Sutra" says that alfalfa leaves, fire dragon grass, and iron sword grass are needed, and ...... "As soon as he said this, he suddenly stopped his mouth and stared at Helin, as if he knew that he was wrong, but he couldn't change it.
He Lin really scolded: "You idiot, you told you that you don't need iron sword grass to refine a first-grade healing pill, this iron sword grass is ten gold coins per catty, and a bottle of one-grade healing pill only buys fifty gold coins, are you stupid!"
"Yes, yes...... Master......"
"Wait!"
Gu Lanyi asked Tie Mu: "Why did your master say that you don't need Iron Sword Grass, and you forget it every time?"
Temu scratched his head again and stammered, "This...... Because, because when Master first showed me the "Elementary Dan Sutra", it ...... That's how it was written. Later, Master said that there was no need for ...... I, I'll ......"
"You don't understand what's going on, do you?"
"Yes, yes. ”
Seeing that Helin was about to fight ironwood again, Gu Lanyi swept his eyes coldly: "I'm asking him, are you going aside?"
Helin was shaken by Gu Lanyi's eyes, as if his bones were frozen, he didn't dare to say anything anymore, his lips spurted, and he went away.
I understood more and more why Tiemu used ten kinds of medicinal herbs instead of eight, because he ...... At the beginning, he kept in mind the formula on the Danjing, and later Helin asked him to change it, but he didn't say why. Tiemu doesn't know how to be flexible, and he doesn't know how to ask, so he subconsciously uses ten kinds of medicinal materials, which can be regarded as a result of his personality.
When Gu Lanyi told him that he could also achieve the same effect without these two medicinal materials, and the cost was lower, he said in detail, Tie Mu grabbed his hair and thought for a long time before nodding: "Oh, so that's the case." ”
"Remember?" Gu Lanyi asked him.
"Remember, I remember...... Thank you, Miss Gu. Temugan laughed, a hearty smile on his face.
To say how smart and talented this Tiemu is, it is absolutely fake, but his requirements for Gu Lanyi are quite suitable. Some people have a stubborn personality, and one look is not necessarily a disadvantage, but if it is used in the right place, such as executing orders, it is the most appropriate!
Moreover, Gu Lanyi only wants to train a junior alchemist for the time being, who can assist the ancient head and supply the primary pills of the Hundred Treasure Pavilion, as for the six or seven grade pills, she has to refine them herself, or talk about it later.
Gu Lanyi asked Tiemu if he would like to come to her Baibao Pavilion to help, but Tiemu really looked at a loss. She simply called Helin and said that she had taken a fancy to him, an alchemy apprentice, and asked him if he was willing to cut his love.
Helin immediately agreed, without saying a word, and looked a little surprised.
Gu Lanyi took out a spirit crystal and gave it to him, Helin looked at it with a smile, a stupid apprentice exchanged for a spirit crystal worth a thousand spirit stones, and he made a lot of money.
"Tiemu, do you have any friends?" Gu Lanyi thought of something again.
"Friend?" Knowing that he would be with this Miss Gu from now on, Tie Mu was happy and apprehensive, and nodded: "I only have one friend, but he is also an alchemy apprentice......
"Okay, take me to him. Gu Lanyi was straightforward.
can make friends with a simple man like Temu, and he won't be a bad person in the future. People with ulterior motives will only think Temu is stupid and will take advantage of him, but they will not become his friends.
Gu Lanyi said anything, Tiemu listened to anything, didn't ask, and quickly took her to find a friend who was looking at the store in another shop. This is a small young man, about seventeen or eighteen years old, and when he saw Temu, he laughed: "Temu, why are you here...... How many of them?"
Gu Lanyi let the two chat, but he looked at the shop.
The pill bottles in the shop are neatly arranged and placed on different counters according to their grades. Some of the elixirs were also well concocted, and the whole shop was clean and refreshing, and it was easy to see through at a glance, and there was not even a trace of dust on the counter.
It's very good, Gu Lanyi's first impression was very good to him.
Tie Mu chatted with this little young man named Luo Feng first, and another guest came halfway, and he also handled it very well, and sold a bottle of three-grade pills in a few words. After collecting the money, Luo Feng came to Gu Lanyi and said cautiously: "You are Second Miss Gu?" I heard from Tiemu that you accepted him as an alchemy apprentice and went to the Hundred Treasure Pavilion to do things, I want to ask...... Miss Gu Er, can you accept me too?"
Unexpectedly, Luo Feng took the initiative, and Gu Lanyi was slightly surprised: "Don't you have a master?"
"Master, he ......"
Luo Feng was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and said, "Actually, he never taught me alchemy, he only asked me to help take care of the shop." For more than three years, in addition to knowing all kinds of pills and distinguishing various elixirs, I haven't even entered the pill room. ”
With a move in his heart, Gu Lanyi took out a porcelain bottle and handed it to him: "Then look at it, what is this?"
Luo Feng took it, sniffed it lightly, and was immediately pleasantly surprised: "Miss Gu Er, this is a seven-grade purple spirit pill, which you refined with your own hands!"
"Since you haven't studied alchemy, how can you conclude that this is a seven-grade purple spirit pill?" Gu Lanyi asked him, feeling more and more interested.
"I once read in Master's book that refining the Purple Spirit Pill requires more than thirty kinds of elixirs such as purple lotus, and the most obvious taste of the Purple Spirit Pill is that it has a faint fragrance of purple lotus, which I guessed as soon as I smelled it just now. Luo Feng's eyes lit up: "Second Miss Gu, am I right?"
Seeing that there was enthusiasm in his eyes, Gu Lanyi nodded: "I remember it very clearly, and it also proves that you remember the taste of purple lotus." ”
Luo Feng touched his head, a little embarrassed.
Gu Lanyi thought about it for a while, she was quite satisfied with this Luo Feng, if she could pretend to cultivate and train, she should be able to achieve a small success. As for how far he can grow, whether he has the opportunity and talent, it depends on himself.
"If you want me to accept you, it's not impossible, but you have to answer me a question first. Gu Lanyi said, and said the previous question again, Su Xin listened curiously, wondering if this alchemy apprentice would also be surrounded by Gu Lanyi.
"Master asked me to collect medicine, naturally this medicine is very useful, even if I find an injured spotted blue-horned python, I should leave quickly to avoid accidents. Luo Feng thought for a while and said seriously: "If it's mine, I won't choose either." ”
Su Xin finally moved: "Ouch, you little alchemy apprentice, why are you such a ghost elf!"
Luo Feng was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Su Xin meant, Gu Lanyi had already laughed: "Okay, it's you, go back with Tie Mu with me, from tomorrow onwards, you will stay in the Hundred Treasure Pavilion to help, and in your spare time, I will teach you some methods of alchemy." ”
"Thank you, Miss Gu Er!" Luo Feng was overjoyed, his slightly green face was full of irrepressible smiles.
The rest of the matters, Gu Lanyi will be handed over to Su Xin to deal with, anyway, she picked Tie Mu and Luo Feng today.
Su Xin didn't say a word, and agreed.
"By the way, Miss Gu...... My father still has one more thing to ask for, I hope Miss Gu can ......" Seeing that Gu Lanyi was about to leave, Su Xin finally said: "My father has been studying the Nine Turns Pei Yuan Dan recently, and I learned that Miss Gu has been refining it before, if Miss Gu can give me some advice, it would be the best." ”
No wonder Wu Yangrong cooperates with her so much, and there is this reason.
Gu Lanyi didn't refuse, and said: "The refining points of the Nine Turns Pei Yuan Dan are not impossible to say, it's just that my Gu family has been doing a lot recently, and I can't be busy here for the time being." When I'm free, I can talk to Chairman Wu. ”
Su Xin was overjoyed: "Yes, then I will thank Miss Gu on behalf of my father." If there is anything you need our help with, Miss Gu will just say. ”
After a few words of greeting, Gu Lanyi finally left with two new recruits and took them directly to Baibao Pavilion.
"From now on, you will live here, the first floor is the shop, and the second floor has a room, you clean up after yourself. Gu Lanyi briefly explained a few words, but he didn't set any rules, and he didn't remind him, only saying that there would be an old gentleman surnamed Gu, who was the manager of this shop, and there was also a bookkeeper Yuan, but there was no other thing.
Three days later, Gu Lanyi planned to make the Hundred Treasure Pavilion work again, so she was going to go back to the furnace to refine a batch of pills.
As for the training of these two people, I will leave it to the ancient head first.
Plus, she had a special idea.
When it is ripe, Gu Lanyi will try it in Baibao Pavilion to see how it works.
