Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Gambling Contract
Yin Xiaotian was a little disappointed, it seemed that it was impossible to get a hundred and eighty pills casually. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info but he still didn't give up and asked Hua Lao for the prescription of the Rebirth Pill, in case he got it one day.
"So, take a look, how much do these two bottles of medicine cost?" Whether it is the Rejuvenation Pill or the Snow Lotus Pill, they are both rare high-grade pills, and there is absolutely no reason to let them go.
Old Man Hua smiled and shook his head, "It's the fate of you and me to meet in a foreign country, don't talk about any money or not, these two bottles of medicine will be given to you as a meeting gift." ”
Xiaolian on the side was suddenly unhappy when she heard this, "Grandpa, these two medicines are high-grade pills, and if they are sold, they can be sold for thousands of gold coins, why do you want to give them to this guy?" ”
"Xiaolian, don't be rude. Anyway, we can't keep it now, and we can't use it in our hands, so it's better to give it to those who need it, which is the meaning of their existence. Old man Hua said earnestly.
"Old man Hua, thank you for your kindness, but it is useless, such a valuable thing is deserved. In this case, this time you will sell it to me at the actual price, and when I collect the refining materials in the future, how about you help me refine them for free? "Although the free things are good, Yin Xiaotian has a long-term plan. An alchemy master like Old Man Hua is like a hen that lays golden eggs, and if you have a good relationship with him, are you afraid that there will be a shortage of pills in the future?
Hearing this, Old Man Hua nodded with a smile, "It's rare to have such a state of mind at a young age, and even if you have good medicinal materials in the future, even if you come to me with them, it's just a gesture." "If he knew that Yin Xiaotian had equated him with a hen in his heart, I don't know how he would feel...
"How much is it?" Yin Xiaotian turned his head and asked Xiaolian, the little girl who was pouting on the side.
"Thirty Rejuvenation Pills, a total of 5040G, seven Snow Lotus Pills, a total of 3185G, according to the regulations, you will be given half price, remove the odds, give me a total of 4100G." Xiaolian didn't want to think about it, she opened her mouth and came.
"What? So expensive! Yin Xiaotian blurted out, if it weren't for a five-percent discount on the welfare of the townspeople, wouldn't it be 8,200 gold? It's so dark.
However, looking at Xiaolian's unkind gaze, she was still obediently ready to pay for it. At this time, Old Man Hua suddenly spoke: "By the way, Xiaolian, don't you want a new medicine tripod, Xiao Yin happens to be a forger, you don't want money, how about letting him build a new medicine tripod for you?" ”
"Him?" Xiaolian glanced at Yin Xiaotian with some disbelief. "I want an A-grade medicine tripod, at least I have to be an intermediate forging master to make it, can he do it?"
Yin Xiaotian suddenly became angry, this little girl dares to look down on people? When you first entered the door, you were quite polite, how could this be like a different person?
"You won't know until you try it, why don't we make a bet?" Yin Xiaotian said.
"Bet?" Xiaolian's eyes widened, and she didn't understand what medicine Yin Xiaotian was selling in the gourd, "What kind of bet?" ”
"You take this 4100G first," Yin Xiaotian took out the money from his pocket and handed it to Xiaolian, and then said, "I'll go back and build a medicine tripod for you, come to you after you build it, and let Hua Lao evaluate it when the time comes, if the value of the medicine tripod I build is less than 4100G, I don't want the money, and the medicine tripod will also be given to you, if it exceeds 4100G... How about you promise to do one thing for me? ”
Xiaolian looked at Yin Xiaotian's somewhat malicious gaze, and instinctively took a step back, what does this strange Shu Xiao want to do? "What do you say first?"
"You don't care about anything, just ask if you dare to agree, right?" Yin Xiaotian raised his eyebrows, "Wasn't you very angry just now, how can you be scared?" ”
"Who said I was scared? Bet on it, I don't believe that a guy like you can make anything good. "A little girl is a little girl, and she will be hooked with a little irritation.
Old Man Hua watched from the side and didn't stop it, but said with a smile, "You can't go back on what you promised to others, if you are betrayed, grandpa can't save you." ”
"Grandpa!" Xiaolian suddenly pulled Hua Lao's sleeve and shook it. "Are you my own grandfather? How can you help outsiders like this! ”
Yin Xiaotian is full of black lines, Hua Lao is such a serious person, he would make such a joke, it is really unseemly.
"Okay, don't shake it, I'm dizzy from shaking, are you done with your homework today?" Boss Hua raised his face and said.
As soon as she mentioned her homework, Xiaolian suddenly wilted, made a grimace at Yin Xiaotian, and went back to the house.
"Hey, this kid, I've spoiled you." Hua Lao sighed, "Her parents died early, leaving our grandparents and grandchildren to depend on each other, alas..."
"Oh... It's pretty good, and you greeted me politely when you first entered the door. Yin Xiaotian hurriedly tried to divert the topic.
"That's all pretended! Now is nature. Old Man Hua no longer mentioned those past events, but his face was still a little serious, "We are in the same line as Hua, our ancestors have been refining medicine for a living, but now there is only one Xiaolian left in the direct lineage, and this girl has not liked refining medicine since she was a child, nine times out of ten times she has to blow up the Ding, and once she has refined poison." And my few apprentices who have not made it to the machine have been learning from me for a long time, but now they can only refine some elementary and intermediate potions. In vain, I have studied hard for half my life, but now there is no one to pass on. ”
The topic has still become heavy, a master of alchemy like Old Man Hua, not to mention that in this kind of town, even if he is placed in the main city, he will be admired, not to mention anything else, when the players reach level 30 and start a sub-profession, it is estimated that those who want to learn alchemy from Old Man Hua can break the door, but this cannot be said to Old Man Hua.
"Hey, don't talk about this, Xiao Yin, are you interested in following me to the back to take a look?" Old Man Hua said suddenly.
Behind? Could it be the alchemy room? Yin Xiaotian nodded, since he is here, he might as well take a look and see what is different from his own blacksmith shop.
Follow Old Man Hua through the door of the inner room and come to a room several times larger than Yin Xiaotian's forging room. On both sides are rows of wooden cabinets, on which are densely packed with drawers containing various medicinal herbs.
Several NPC alchemy apprentices are busy in full swing, grinding, dispensing, and palm fire, but the refined drugs are indeed not high-end goods, they are all primary recovery agents and the like, and the best ones are only intermediate, it seems that the medicines sold to players now should be refined by these NPC apprentices.
When the NPC apprentices saw Hua Lao coming in, they all got up and greeted Hua Lao respectfully, Hua Lao waved his hand and motioned for them to continue, but took Yin Xiaotian into a smaller room inside-the alchemy room.
It seems that this should be the special alchemy room for Hua Lao, there is a huge furnace in the center of the room, and there are various bottles and cans on the table on the side, and he glanced at it casually, "Extreme Speed Pill, Wisdom Mixture, Millennium Heart Preservation Pill..."
However, what did Mr. Hua bring himself here to do?
