The middle-aged man in the brocade robe turned his head and was about to say something.

Director Chen spoke: "You go and get busy with you, it's a good thing that the alchemist comes to cooperate, don't slack off, I'll go back first." ”

"Then I'll go and talk to the alchemist first, Master Chen, please go slowly."

Alchemist is a scarce profession, even if the Thousand Crane Firm is a big business house under the name of the True Dragon Gang, and there are alchemists in the gang who regularly supply pills, but for the huge pill market, it will never be too much.

Having an alchemist to cooperate means that the supply of goods for the commercial bank is more sufficient.

The two walked out of the inner hall together.

Chen is in charge, and the brocade robe is middle-aged.

When the shopkeeper saw the two of them coming out, he immediately greeted him respectfully, and led the middle-aged man in the brocade robe to the direction of Ling Jiuqiu.

Director Chen waved his hand, refused the middle-aged gift of the brocade robe, and walked through the crowd in the hall of the commercial house.

On the way, he subconsciously turned his head and looked in the direction where the middle-aged man in the brocade robe was going.

I saw that the middle-aged man in the brocade robe, under the leadership of the shopkeeper, walked up to a handsome young man, and greeted the other party with a gentle smile.

"Huh? It's ......"

Director Chen's expression moved.

"This so-called alchemist turned out to be Ling Jiuqiu."

A few months ago, in the Yanlong Martial Arts Academy Entrance Competition, he followed the deputy gang leader Chi Jiang in the high-level private room, watching the duels in the ring from a distance.

It's just that his status is not top-notch, so he doesn't stand in the front row, but stands in a slightly lower position with others.

As a powerhouse of the Innate Realm, his memory is naturally not bad, even after a few months, he still remembers Ling Jiuqiu's appearance vividly, and he recognized it at a glance.

The most important thing is that Ling Jiuqiu killed Shi Huili, the true disciple of the True Dragon Gang, in the ring, which made the deputy gang leader Chi Jiang quite unhappy.

As Wei Chijiang's confidant, Director Chen was very impressed with Ling Jiuqiu, and he also had a trace of hostility.

At this time, he saw Ling Jiuqiu walking in the direction of the back hall with the middle-aged man in the brocade robe, and his heart suddenly moved.

He beckoned, summoned a shopkeeper, led the other party to a no-man's corner, and commanded in a low voice: "You go and call Mei Shijie over, just say that I have something to find him." ”

Mei Shijie is the middle-aged man in the brocade robe, that is, the shopkeeper of the Thousand Crane Trading House.

The shopkeeper bowed down and responded, "Yes." ”

The other side.

Ling Jiuqiu and Mei Shijie sat down in the inner hall.

The latter had a warm smile like a spring breeze on his face, and warmly complimented: "Brother Ling can become an alchemist at a young age, and his future is limitless!" ”

Ling Jiuqiu smiled indifferently and was about to speak, when a knock on the door suddenly sounded.

The voice of the shopkeeper came from outside the door: "Shopkeeper, Director Chen has something important to look for you, please come over now." ”

Mei Shijie hurriedly stood up and said with a hint of apology: "I'm sorry, I'll go away for a while, and Brother Ling, please sit down for a while." ”

"Please." Ling Jiuqiu nodded.

Mei Shijie walked to the door and instructed the shopkeeper: "You go and make a pot of tea for this alchemist, and before I come back, be sure to entertain it." ”

After speaking, Mei Shijie walked quickly to Director Chen's side and asked respectfully, "Director Chen, I don't know what to order?" ”

"The little alchemist brother just now, no matter what kind of cooperation he came to talk about, as long as it does not violate the principles of the firm, try to talk about it, and then report the details of the cooperation to me."

Mei Shijie was slightly stunned.

Although he didn't know why there was such a strange order, Director Chen didn't take the initiative to say, and he didn't dare to ask, so he simply nodded:

"Okay."

After a while.

Mei Shijie returned to the inner hall and apologized to Ling Jiuqiu with his fists in one after another: "I'm sorry, there are a lot of things, please forgive me for the neglect!" ”

Ling Jiuqiu didn't say anything, his expression was as calm as ever, and he just said casually: "It's getting late, I'll get straight to the point." ”

"I want to refine the pill for sale, mainly the common first-order vitality pill and qi and blood pill, I don't know if the Mei shopkeeper will accept it?"

Mei Shijie nodded, and said with a smile: "These are all essential portable pills for martial artists, of course we accept them, but I don't know how much Brother Ling has to supply?" ”

In this regard, Ling Jiuqiu has already considered it.

With his current alchemy speed, refining a furnace of Qi and Blood Pill only takes about ten minutes, and considering the refining power of ninety percent, it is equivalent to refining five bottles of Qi and Blood Pill every hour.

The refining speed of the Vitality Pill is slightly slower, it takes about fifteen minutes to refine a furnace, and the refining power is about sixty percent, which is equivalent to refining two or three bottles per hour.

The difference in refining efficiency between the two is nearly doubled.

Ling Jiuqiu's plan was that for a long time to come, he would make money while refining pills and cultivating martial arts.

The time spent on alchemy is planned to be about two hours a day on average.

Other words.

At the current rate, he could refine ten bottles of Qi and Blood Pills, or five bottles of Vitality Pills every day.

The profit margin of the former is slightly lower, but the refining efficiency is much higher than that of the latter, and the comprehensive profit is higher.

And the latter can hone his alchemy more effectively, which is conducive to the improvement of alchemy, and in the long run, it can bring him more benefits.

So.

He planned to refine the two pills alternately.

Ling Jiuqiu replied decisively: "At this stage, I can refine about 30 bottles of Qi Blood Pill and 15 bottles of Vitality Pill every week, I don't know what your purchase price is?" ”

Mei Shijie pondered for a moment and said:

"This amount is okay, but I need to remind Brother Ling that since you are a personal alchemist, you only have a cooperative relationship with us, for the sake of the credibility of the firm, each pill will be professionally tested before it can be sold, and for us, these are also big costs."

"In addition, the commercial bank also needs to ensure sufficient profits to survive, so the price we give is generally not particularly high."

Ling Jiuqiu nodded, indicating that he understood.

Mei Shijie smiled:

"Generally speaking, for individual alchemists who cooperate for the first time, the purchase price of these two pills, our firm will only give a maximum range of eighty-five taels to eighty-eight taels per bottle."

"But in order to express my apologies, I can give Brother Ling a sincere price, the Qi and Blood Pill is ninety taels per bottle, and the Vitality Pill is also ninety taels per bottle."

"Brother Ling should know that in major trading houses, the normal selling price of these two pills is 100 taels per bottle, and our gross profit is only ten taels, and then deducting the cost of testing, there are other costs such as labor and shops, plus discounts from time to time."

"All in all, our net profit per bottle of pill is only about six taels."

"Even if it is an exclusive alchemist that our Thousand Crane Chamber of Commerce has cooperated with for a long time, the purchase price of these two pills is generally about the same."

Mei Shijie's eyes were half-squinted with a smile, and his round face was full of gentleness and enthusiasm.
