Chapter Eighty-Nine; entrust
Osawa Castle is also divided into inner and outer castles.
The people who lived in the outer city were all ordinary people, and the people who lived in the inner city were the gentry, and this phenomenon of clear class division would not change because the city of Daze was the capital of a city, but it was insurmountably solid.
As one of the four gentry of Daze Fucheng, the Huang family, the ancestors were born by selling porcelain, and after more than ten generations of efforts, there is today's atmosphere, with thousands of acres of cultivated fields, hundreds of acres of manors, and thousands of domestic slaves alone.
At the beginning of the last hour (more than one o'clock in the afternoon), in front of the high-walled compound and the magnificent Huang family's mansion, a young man with thick arms, an ordinary face and an inch head was ushered in.
Fang Ping raised his hand and knocked on the main door, and the slave who opened the door looked up and down, perhaps because Fang Ping was dressed ordinarily, some dogs looked at people and asked: "The master ordered, today is closed to thank guests, what are you doing?" ”
"Find your master to make alchemy for me." Fang Ping handed over a piece of loose silver.
It is easy to do things with money, and this truth has remained unchanged for eternity.
The slave who took the scattered silver went to report with a bright smile, and when he came back, his attitude became more and more respectful, and he led Fang Ping into the gate.
Stepping into the Yellow Mansion, Fang Ping opened his eyes, there are thousands of square meters in a front yard, and two ponds full of lotus flowers raise sparkling and valuable golden carp.
Walk through the front yard, seven steps and a pavilion, ten steps and a floor, thousands of mountains and thousands of views, ancient trees towering to the sky, walking in the corridor between the maids and maids, each cloud hairpin pearl green, appearance signs.
"Childe, please, there is a back garden in front, where is the lord waiting for you." The house slave reminded.
Fang Ping snorted and entered the back garden of the Huang Mansion.
The exquisitely carved rockeries stand in the garden one after another, making people feel refreshed and happy.
After a while, Fang Ping saw the old lady of the Huang family, an old man with white hair and strong spirits, sitting lazily in front of the lake fishing, looking back at Fang Ping, a touch of surprise flashed in the corner of his eyes: "How old is it?" ”
Fang Ping was slightly stunned, but he didn't expect the other party to ask his age as soon as he came up, "Eighteen years old." ”
Hearing this, the old lady of the Huang family waved his hand and drove away the house slaves, and the two maids who were waiting on the side also retreated with interest.
When there was only one old man and one young left at the scene, the old lady of the Huang family began to look at Fang Ping with an appreciative look: "People can't look good, the girl of the Chu family said that a friend asked me to refine the pill, and specially said that you cultivated to the realm of the third grade in the year of the dancing elephant, the old man still doesn't believe it, and he doesn't want the old man to sit in the well and watch the sky." ”
There are countless young talents in the city of Daze Mansion, and there are also a small number of people who rank in the middle three grades, and they may have cultivated to the middle three grades in the year of dancing elephants, which is really a phoenix feather, and the last one is many years ago.
Moreover, Fang Ping is not an ordinary middle-grade powerhouse, this point, Chu Ying has mentioned again and again, if there is no such grandeur, the old lady of the Huang family, who is in charge of the Huang family, will not agree to refine the pill for Fang Ping.
"The old lady is serious, Fang Mou's achievements today depend on hard work." The square plane is not red and does not breathe.
The corners of the old lady's mouth twitched, and the young man's serious appearance almost made him believe it.
Can hard work lead to success? The cruelest and most terrible reality in this world is that hard work does not change anything, and personal talent, chance, and luck are crucial.
For example, the ancestor of his Huang family, who slept later than a dog, got up earlier than a chicken, was mediocre, and struggled half-dead for most of his life, and in the end he made a fortune by relying on a windfall.
"Stop, the old man has lived most of his life and has seen so many outstanding talents, and these eyes can still see clearly."
The old lady of the Huang family asked in a straight manner, "What kind of elixir do you want to ask the old man to refine?" Let's make it clear first, the old man's success rate is about seventy percent, you have to prepare at least three medicinal materials for a furnace of pills, and you can't break the rules just because you were introduced by the girl of the Chu family. After the pill was released, the half furnace of the pill belonged to the old man. ”
The conditions are harsh, but it is more affordable than the "Lingbao Zhai" that requires five copies of medicinal materials.
"Okay, let's do it according to the old lady's conditions."
Fang Ping then said that he wanted to refine the Dragon Tiger Pill.
"What Dan?"
"Dragon Tiger Dan? Unheard of, what kind of elixir is this? Is there a Danfang? ”
The old lady of the Huang family looked at the young man in a circle, he suspected that the young man was making something out of nothing, he could refine more than a dozen kinds of pills, and he knew hundreds of kinds of pills, but he had never heard of the Dragon Tiger Pill.
It is not excluded that there is really such an elixir, there are thousands of elixirs in the world, and the elixir circulating in this corner of Dazefu City is only the tip of the iceberg.
"That's it?" Fang Ping was speechless, he had been doing it for a long time, the old guy wouldn't.
There is an operation, but Fang Ping took out the Dan Fang that he carried closely, "This Dan Fang is obtained by me by chance, the refining technique, and the medicinal materials needed for refining, the Dan Fang is recorded in great detail." ”
From the moment the young man took out the Danfang, the old lady of the Huang family's eyes lit up.
For martial artists, the attraction of martial arts is like a pink beauty in the eyes of ordinary people.
For alchemists, a never-before-seen pill can not only allow them to master the refining method of one more elixir, but also draw inferences from one another, and strengthen their own alchemy.
In terms of value, it is indescribable, it is worthless to ordinary people, and it is difficult to buy the alchemist's daughter.
"Come, study for the old man, is there really such an elixir as the Dragon Tiger Pill." The old lady of the Huang family stretched out her hand and begged for a message.
How could Fang Ping be easily fooled, the corners of his mouth crookedly said: "Look, let's talk about the conditions." ”
The old lady of the Huang family regained her composure and said in a deep voice: "If this pill recipe is genuine, the old man can help you refine it for free, and you don't need to prepare the medicinal materials, the old man promises to give you a furnace of pills on the pill, and the consumption is the old man's." ”
Fang Ping shook his head, such conditions were tantamount to empty gloves white wolf, "Ten furnace finished pills!" In addition, I have to supervise the process of alchemy. ”
"Impossible!" The old lady of the Huang family was stunned and said, "I don't know how much the pill on your pill is worth." ”
"But one thing is well known, even if the old man has a foundation in alchemy, and wants to refine an elixir that has never been refined, it is necessary to invest a lot of time in good medicinal materials to succeed, and the loss during this period is difficult to estimate. It is even more difficult to supervise from the sidelines, and there is no room for the slightest disturbance during alchemy. ”
What can't be disturbed in the slightest, he is still afraid that his alchemy technique will be secretly learned by Fang Ping.
But Fang Ping's purpose of proposing to supervise from the side was precisely to steal alchemy.
The situation suddenly fell into a stalemate, and the old lady of the Huang family took the lead in breaking the silence, "Five furnaces." ”
"Six furnaces."
"Five furnaces."
"Six furnaces."
"You give Danfang a look at the old man first."
Fang Ping was not fooled, and read: "There are fifteen kinds of medicinal materials for refining the Dragon and Tiger Pill, including gold and silver grass, scorching sun fruit, tiger head poisonous scorpion, red-blooded ginseng that is more than fifty years old, and so on......"
"Okay, don't talk about it." Without waiting for Fang Ping to finish speaking, the old lady of the Huang family said with a solemn face: "Sensei said something else, any of your medicinal materials will cost hundreds of taels of silver, and refining a furnace will cost thousands of taels of silver." The old man has a thick foundation for alchemy, but he also has to invest hundreds of thousands of taels of silver before he can successfully refine it, which is still a conservative estimate. ”
Fang Ping wondered, Mrs. said that Lian Feihu was able to cultivate to the middle three grades, and the Dragon Tiger Pill was indispensable, but the cost of refining the Dragon Tiger Pill was so high, who in Lianjiabao could refine it?
"Old man, the finished product is high, which means that my pill is also of high grade, you have learned to refine this Dragon and Tiger Pill, sooner or later you can earn it back, and you can also pass it on to future generations."
Fang Ping changed his thinking and reminded the old lady of the Huang family.
The old lady of the Huang family, who is old and refined, can be seen through at all.
