Chapter 38: Apprenticeship
Yang Zhe smiled. "Yes, Gu Lao, it's as simple as that!" he shook his head again and said, "Actually, this thing is not perfect. It is too seriously affected by the weather, and there are too many coarse salt impurities separated from it, which cannot be eaten directly. ”
Yang Hongwei shouted, "And coarse salt?"
Lao Gu puffed out his eyes and said, "Yang Zhe, hurry up and open the lid and let the old man take a look." ”
Yang Zhe said: "Old Gu, you can't look at it in vain, you have to help me see, is there any impurities in this fresh water? Can you drink it directly? How can this coarse salt be made into refined salt?"
Lao Gu said: "This water is no problem, it can definitely be drunk." Refined salt refining furnace, it's not expensive, I'll give you two!"
Yang Zhe pulled out the latch and opened the lids of the four black hot iron cubes.
In the first tin box, there was a layer of black paste. The crystals in the second tin box were much whiter. The crystalline particles in the third tin box were white and fine. In the fourth tin box, there was only a thin layer of powder.
Yang Zhe looked at it again and again, scratching his head, he couldn't figure it out. It stands to reason that it's all salt, shouldn't it all stay in the first compartment? Is it because of the strange substance of "Xuan Lingqi" in the seawater?
Lao Gu pinched the crystalline particles of the third grid, stuffed them into his mouth, tasted them, and spit them out. His gaze fell on the strainer on the mouth of the water pipe, and he ripped open the cloth and skin wrapped around the square box. "Condenser? is this...... Taken out of the freezer?"
Yang Zhe smiled.
Lao Gu was silent for a moment, slowly stood up, put his hands behind his back, and called out solemnly. "Yang Zhe. ”
"Huh?" Lao Gu suddenly made the atmosphere serious, and Yang Zhe involuntarily put away his smile and stood upright.
Lao Gu said slowly: "Join the Refining Guild." Register this set of equipment with the Refining Guild, and the guild will help you operate it. You can rest assured, the Refining Guild has existed for 10,000 years and has strict management regulations. Although every set sold can only give you a profit of 10%, but I promise, it will definitely make more money than if you put it in your own hands!"
Lao Shao said: "It's not safe to put it in your own hands." It's not that I look down on you Half Moon Island, it's just that you guys," he glanced at the group of Yang clansmen, "Even if I keep my mouth shut with Gu Lao, you can't keep this secret!"
Yang Zhe smiled. "Old Gu, our class invented a way to tie a rope, and the Tianyi Guild gave us the title of Nine-Rank Heavenly Clothes Master, you see, I am such a great invention," he stretched out his hands and measured his seawater to freshwater production line, "Can you give me an eight-grade refiner? I don't have high requirements, right?"
"It's not high!" Lao Gu twitched the back of Yang Zhe's head. "You don't have a single trace in this thing! How can you give you an eight-grade rating?"
Yang Zhe said: "Then please add a few Xuan lines to the kid, and then melt and melt this water to make the water taste better, or improve its efficiency?"
Old Gu snorted coldly.
Yang Zhe leaned in front of Lao Gu, "Old Gu, when the time comes, you will be counted as the oldest! How about registering it as an invention with me?"
Lao Gu snorted again, but this time it was much softer than the one just now.
Yang Zhe hissed and said, "Old Gu, you don't want to say that this set of things is made by you, right? Aren't you afraid of planting demons in your heart?" I heard that cultivating Xuan Ling Power is the most important ......."
"Fart!, is the old man that kind of person?" said Lao Gu was furious.
Yang Zhe squinted at Lao Gu and told him with his eyes, you are this kind of person!
Lao Gu was so angry that he raised his fist to beat Yang Zhe.
Yang Zhe ran away, saying as he ran: "Look at you, you just want to kill me and occupy my invention!"
Lao Gu was so angry that he almost turned his back on it. "Lao Shao, help me capture this kid. ”
Lao Shao said "um".
Yang Zhe only felt that there was a flower in front of him, and he was twisted by Lao Shaoti and dragged in front of Lao Gu.
"What are you doing?" Yang Hong pulled out his long sword. Yang Kuang grabbed a dagger in one hand and jumped over. Both men and women of the Yang family rushed over.
Yang Zhe hurriedly raised his hand. "Don't be impatient! Don't be impatient! Gu Lao is teasing me!"
Gu Laotie blushed and said, "Who is playing with you, kneel down for me!"
As soon as Lao Shao made a effort, Yang Zhe was pressed to his knees. Yang Zhe tried to resist and struggled, but Lao Shao pressed his head and kowtowed to Lao Gu three times.
Yang Zhe kowtowed, and just about to get angry, he heard Lao Gu say: "Well, yes, seeing that you kowtow so loudly, I will accept you as an apprentice!"
Yang Zhe immediately became honest.
Lao Shao let go of Yang Zhe. Yang Zhe was still kneeling.
Yang Hong and Yang Kuang threw away their weapons and knelt down. The old and young of the Yang family whispered a few words, and they all knelt down.
Yang Xingbang kowtowed to Lao Gu. "Thank you, Old Sect Master, for mercy on my Yang Clan!"
Lao Gu nodded slightly and accepted these gifts.
He said: "Back then, Yang Po wanted to officially worship me as a teacher, but I didn't agree. I said to him, "If you are in my class, you are my disciple, and you don't need to apprentice." Actually, I think your brother Yang Po is very talented, but he is too conceited and takes money too seriously. Ever since he was able to refine the Scorching Soul Weapon, he had been focusing on refining the Soul Weapon to make money, and he had forgotten the root of his cultivation, so that he was in danger for the sake of money, and he missed it for life. ”
"Yang Zhe, although you haven't opened up the Xuan Vein so far, you can create this people's weapon with a simple cutting and patchwork method, your mind is transparent, and you are indifferent to fame and fortune, and your heart is far superior to your brother Yang Po. I will make an exception to take you as an apprentice today, and you must remember that in the future, you must work hard and devote yourself to the study of the art of alchemy, and you must not learn from your brother, be confused by money, and forget your heart. ”
"Yes, Master!" Yang Zhe promised.
Lao Gu waved his hand. "Get up. Get up. ”
Yang Zhe stood up. Yang Hong and other members of the Yang clan also stood up. Yang Zhe himself is very calm, and the people of the Yang clan are happy and crazy. They thought that Lao Gu would kill people and sell goods, but they were about to die of scare, and the clinker was reversed in an instant, even if Yang Zhe climbed the towering tree of Gu Lao, they could enjoy the blessings of the Yang clan again.
Yang Zhe invited Lao Gu and Lao Shao into the family lord's mansion and let the second elder take a seat.
Duo'er, Mo'er and Man'er each brought a large porcelain bowl to eat cold, and Yang Zhe and the second elder each offered a bowl.
"Master, Shao Lao, the island is bare, and there are no good things. This kid made himself last night, and you two will try it. Yang Zhe said, scooping a small spoonful and eating it first.
With Lao Gu and his identity, no matter where he goes, each family will offer the best tea treasured at home. Serving cold drinks to guests, Lao Shao and Lao Gu saw it for the first time.
The cold drink in this porcelain bowl is maroon red, and there are some creamy yellow shrimp-shaped pastes floating inside.
The two elders are well-informed people, but they have never seen such a diet.
Lao Shao scooped a mouthful of soup first and ate it. Cold, sweet, especially this cool air, in this hot weather, this cold swallow, the whole body is comfortable.
He scooped another spoonful of the shrimp-like paste and ate it. It melts in my mouth, I don't feel like I have tasted anything, it has slipped into my throat, and I quickly scooped another spoonful, deliberately slowing down the speed of eating, but it is still so smooth and tender. Damn it, it's in the throat.
