Chapter 16 A lot of money
Zhen Yinjian took out a blue and white porcelain vase from his sleeve with a smile, opened the red silk cork and handed it to the thin old man.
The shopkeeper Tong took the porcelain bottle and looked at it, and found that there were five pills inside, each of which was round and full, with strange lines on the surface, and even exuded a faint fragrance. Just in an instant, the old man with the goatee's face changed greatly, gasped, and exclaimed:
"The quality of the land is returned to Chundan!"
The old man then hurriedly plugged the wooden cork like a nervous person, hurriedly ordered the man to close the door of the store, and looked at Zhen Yinjian with a fiery face.
"Are you sure, this is going to be sold?"
"Sell, of course sell, do I keep it for myself?" said Zhen Yinjian with a smile.
"Little brother, you come upstairs with me to talk. I saw that the shopkeeper Tong hurriedly pulled Zhen Yinjian upstairs, as anxious as burning his eyebrows.
Zhen Yinjian's face trembled, and he also wanted to see what the old man had to say, so he followed.
"What's wrong with our shopkeeper? Why did you bring such a hairy boy to the sky tower today? This is the treatment that entertains the most distinguished guests of our Xingchun Fang, is this kid worthy of it?" the fat man pouted, very dissatisfied.
"Our shopkeeper is an old man, do you still want you to teach how to do business?" the other guy didn't deal with the fat man, laughing and mocking.
"You ......" The fat man was clumsy for a while, and he didn't know how to defend himself.
At this time, only the third guy looked suspicious, how did he feel that the danxiang of the Huanchun Dan in this room was getting stronger and stronger, and it exuded an indescribable danxiang.
"Take a seat here, sit down here, let the old man make you a cup of tea." Shopkeeper Tong's face smiled like a fox.
The fragrant tea is hot, the aroma lingers, and a sip of fragrant tea enters the stomach, Zhen Yinjian asked slowly:
"Shopkeeper, let's not come to the void, I still have seven or eight wives waiting for me to be lucky. I'm busy, you know. ”
"Yes, yes, the first time I saw Childe, I felt that he was outstanding and extraordinary, he must be a hidden dragon in the abyss, and sooner or later he will have a great achievement. The old man continued to pat his ass, and his laughter was as ugly as that of an old crow.
"Well, yes, after all, the shopkeeper Tong is an old Jianghu, and he still has it in his eyes. So can you tell me what is going on with this land product Chundan?"
"You don't know?" The old man with the goatee looked surprised.
"What do I know, I have no sect, no teacher. The basket of pills I just sold you and the pills in your hand are all from my second alchemy, how do I know what the earth-grade pills are?" Zhen Yinjian spread his hands and looked innocent.
"Damn, I'm so pretended, I'm so angry! The old man has never seen such a brazen person!" The shopkeeper Tong's beard trembled, and his fingers itched, and he wanted to beat this kid.
In his heart, he felt that this young man was simply arrogant to the extreme, there was no way, no sect, no one to teach, and the second alchemy could still refine the earth-grade elixir, this cowhide boasted was simply beautiful and intriguing.
"If you are my grandson, dare to pretend to be like this, I will not arrest you and hang you to beat!"
Coughing twice, the old man continued to smile patiently. He thought so in his heart, but how dare he offend this young man with such excellent alchemy qualifications.
After all, it is normal for young people to be crazy, and he comforted himself so much in his heart.
"I'll first explain to the little brother what the Dipin Pill is. Danwang Sun Simiao once made a judgment and divided the pills into waste pills, lower pills, middle pills, upper pills, earth pills and heavenly pills. Generally, there is almost no circulation on the waste pill market, and the lower-grade, medium-grade, and high-grade pills can be seen in the pharmacy and Dange. ”
The old man paused at this point, took a sip of tea and continued.
"The lower grade pill is the second, the middle grade pill is better, and the top grade pill is already the best in a small town like ours, and it belongs to the level of the treasure of the town store, and it is generally not sold very much. ”
"Why don't you sell earthly and heavenly elixirs?" Zhen Yinjian tried to pose with a questioning posture, but the old man's eyebrows jumped.
"Ahem, it's not that we don't want to, it's that no one sells it. Any earth-grade pill or above the heavenly grade, even if it is of mortal grade, has great value. Not to mention the excellent medicinal properties of this pill, I don't know how many pills will attract the pursuit of many pills!" the old man said as he stroked his breath.
"Why is this, aren't mortal pills only useful to mortals, Dan masters are all great masters above the innate realm, where can this kind of thing be used?" Zhen Yinjian was puzzled.
"No, no, no, no. The old man was suddenly said to be interested, and stroked his beard and smiled.
"As soon as Dan enters the earth, the Emperor of Heaven gives it. That is to say, any kind of elixir, even the lowest grade earth-grade elixir, also has a Dan pattern, which contains the Dan Dao Zhizhi, which is the reward of the ancient Dan Emperor who created the Dan Dao. If the Dan Master can master these earth products, the alchemy rules in the Heavenly Grade Pill, he can improve his alchemy attainments. This kind of opportunity is almost rare, and I don't know how many Dan masters have never had this opportunity in their lifetime. ”
"So that's the case, so what's the difference between the efficacy of this earth-grade pill and the heaven-grade pill itself?" Zhen Yinjian asked curiously.
"Even if you ask the right person, the characteristic of the Dipin Pill is that the pill is non-toxic, there is no residue and residual poison, and it is completely harmless to the human body. You must know that many people are just because they take too much pills, and as a result, their bodies are weak and their cultivation is shackled, which is extremely terrible for mortals and monks. The old man said with a smile.
"In addition, the medicinal properties of the Tianpin Pill are the same as those of the Dipin Pill. The difference is in appearance. The local pill is rich in medicinal fragrance, as long as a trace of it can be full of fragrance, and it is very easy to identify. And the Tianpin elixir, it is said that it can shine brightly in the sky, irradiating several miles, which is even more terrifying. In terms of efficacy, these two pills have the characteristics of Dan patterns, and the medicinal effects are several times or even ten times that of the top-grade pills!"
Hearing this old man's answer, Zhen Yinjian understood why this shopkeeper Tong was so polite to him, and the Huanchun Dan of this local product still has such an unknown value!
"Little brother, you really want to sell this elixir, don't regret it? You must know that the earth-grade elixir is extremely difficult to refine successfully, and the next time, you may not be able to refine it!" The old man's conscience found out at this time, and he actually comforted him.
"It's okay, it's okay, this thing is easy to refine, it doesn't take a lot of trouble. Zhen Yinjian shook his hand, this thing was really not difficult for him. After practicing in the space of the "Dan Array Exercise" for so long, he was already able to guarantee that there was a twenty percent rate of the Earth Grade Pill becoming a Dan!
"Okay, then I'll buy this product and return the spring pill. According to the market price, five pills of Dipinfan are worth one hundred spirit gold. I'll take these five pills at 20% more than the market price. The old man twitched his eyebrows and smiled as he spoke.
"It's okay to listen to the old man's arrangement. "Zhen Yinjian is not afraid that this shopkeeper Tong will hack him, he has the ability to mass-produce this elixir, if the old man hacks him, there will be no cooperation next time.
This old man is a businessman, so he naturally understands this truth.
Spiritual gold is the hard currency of monks, and the exchange ratio with silver taels is almost between 1 to 10,000 taels, but often spiritual gold can be exchanged for more silver taels, while silver taels can rarely be exchanged for a sufficient amount of spiritual gold. After all, Lingjin is much more valuable.
Taking the one hundred and twenty spirit gold handed over by the old man with a goatee, Zhen Yinjian glanced at it curiously. The spirit gold is a kind of trading currency used by the monks, it is only the size of a grain of rice, and the surface exudes a golden luster, and a grain of spirit gold is a little heavy in the palm of his hand, and the density is very high, and he can even feel the aura contained in it. And every grain of spiritual gold is very standardized, and it looks like it has been processed.
When a hundred spirit gold arrived in his hand, it was only the volume of a bag of things, but it was extremely heavy, and ordinary mortals would have some difficulty pinching it.
"Shopkeeper, I'm leaving, and I'll look for you again with a new deal. Zhen Yinjian got up and wanted to leave, and the time spent in Xingchun Fang today was not short.
"Wait a minute......," the old man interrupted, turning back and taking out a jade plaque from a box and handing it to him.
Zhen Yinjian held the jade plaque in his hand, and found that it was not heavy, and it was cool in the palm of his hand. The four corners of the jade plaque are carved with beautiful cloud patterns, and the center is written with the word "respect" in ancient seals.
"This is our Xingchun Fang's guest order, which is only issued to important guests. In the future, with this token, you can enjoy the treatment of honorable customers in Xingchunfang within 100 cities, and you can get a discount on any goods. The old man looked at him with a smile.
Zhen Yinjian thanked him and left, and he was no longer dissatisfied with this shopkeeper. With this "Distinguished Guest Order", he can enjoy a nine-percent discount in Xingchunfang, which is still very good.
Looking at the figure of the young man in the distance, the shopkeeper Tong, who was accustomed to seeing many storms, was also a little surging at this time. He didn't expect that he would be able to meet such a talented alchemy wizard. Befriending such a character will inevitably have a lot of convenience for him in the future.
With more than 200,000 taels of silver tickets and more valuable spiritual gold, Zhen Yinjian's heart was full of joy, and for the first time, he felt that alchemy was indeed a promising profession.
Although this thing is very money-burning, the benefits are also huge. Thinking about it, he only spent 40,000 taels of silver to obtain more than 200,000 taels of silver taels, which is still the income of an alchemy, not counting the more precious spiritual gold.
He was a little envious of those great Dan masters in his heart, could it be that now the Dan masters in the immortal Dao world have such a high status, and they have such a means to sit on the ground and make money, no matter which sect they can't do without.
Zhen Yinjian didn't know that the truth was different from what he thought, alchemists, especially low-level Dan masters, were often the most money-throwing and unprofitable professions. In the early stage, he needs to invest a lot of wealth to get started, and it is not as profitable as he thought.
If it weren't for the help of the system, he wouldn't have been able to refine the high-grade or even earth-grade Chun Dan so easily!
