Chapter 44: Talking Business

"It seems that Li Daoyou doesn't know yet, as early as yesterday, the Nangong family publicized the matter of your appointment with Nangong Ling, and now everyone in the city knows about it. ”

"It's just that I didn't expect Li Daoyou to be so confident and disdain Nangong Ling, but the little woman still kindly reminded you, you must not underestimate the enemy. ”

Ziyan smiled kindly.

"The shopkeeper of Ziyan is caring about me, I am really flattered. Li Aotian said with a strange expression.

"Li Daoyouai can understand it as much as he wants, but to be honest, as far as I know, Nangong Ling is really not a character to be messed with, he has already cultivated the Nangong family's Wild Thunder Bagang into a small one, and his cultivation is at least nine levels of qi refining. ”

"Li Daoyou dealt with Nangong Yu that day, although he behaved very easily, but the gap in the cultivation realm is not so easy to make up, after all, the difference in cultivation between you and Nangong Ling is not a star and a half. ”

Ziyan said with a solemn expression, obviously quite concerned about the battle between Li Aotian and Nangong Ling.

"I said Ziyan shopkeeper, you really care about me, and remind me again and again, but I really can't think of what the reason for you to care about me is, after all, we have only met twice in total with this time. ”

"Don't tell me anything like love at first sight, it's a lie that only the foolish would believe. ”

didn't care about Ziyan's kind reminder, Li Aotian changed the topic.

"Li Daoyou really likes to joke, although we have only met twice, but we have known each other once, we can be regarded as friends, as a friend, I care about you, is there anything wrong with this. ”

"Don't be so suspicious, I'm different from the big families in our Taiyi City, I opened the door to do business, and making friends from all over the world is the foundation of doing business, and it was Nangong Ling who came to the door today, and I would say the same." ”

Ziyan explained with a light smile, not taboo at all.

"The shopkeeper of Ziyan is a bright person, and he speaks really straightforwardly, since you said that we are friends, then I don't know if you can help my friend a little favor?"

What he was waiting for was Ziyan's words, Li Aotian smiled at the other party's words.

"I knew that Li Daoyou had nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, there must be something to do when he suddenly came to me, okay, if you need anything, you might as well say it directly, but whatever I can help, I will do my best. ”

Ziyan smiled lightly, it was not surprising that Li Aotian had something to ask for.

"You must be able to help with this favor, otherwise I wouldn't have come to you, in fact, this can't be regarded as a help, it should be said that we are mutually beneficial. ”

"Your Purple Cloud Pavilion is one of the largest shops in my Taiyi City, and all kinds of materials, magic weapons, including pills, are sold, and I happen to be refining a second-order pill. ”

"My idea is this, you provide alchemy materials, and after I refine the pill, I will hand them over to you Ziyun Pavilion for sale, and the Yuan Crystals you will earn will naturally be indispensable to you, I don't know what you think of the Ziyan shopkeeper?"

Li Aotian said the real purpose of this visit.

"Will you refine second-order pills? Or a lot, could it be that Li Daoyou, you are an alchemist, and you have reached the second order?"

There was a hint of shock in Ziyan's eyes, you must know that all the alchemists in Taiyi City combined, they were only five fingers.

Alchemy, refining, talisman making, and array arrangement, these are the four most lucrative professions in the cultivation world, but not everyone can do this business.

Take alchemy as an example, if you want to become an alchemist, in addition to having a talent for alchemy, it is more important to have a lot of resources to support it.

There is no shortcut to alchemy, you need to accumulate experience step by step, and the more you refine an elixir, you will naturally become proficient, but this process requires a waste of a lot of alchemy materials.

Alchemy, like refining, once the refining fails, all the materials will be wasted.

Among them, the refining tool is a little better, some materials can be refined many times, but once the alchemy materials are refined, they can no longer be used, and they will be completely burned to ashes.

In Taiyi City, only the largest elixir shops have alchemists, which are all cultivated by those shops that have spent a lot of resources, including the Purple Cloud Pavilion, but these alchemists are all first-order alchemists, and they can only refine first-order pills.

"Why can't I be an alchemist, does this shock you again?"

Looking at the shocked look on Ziyan's face, Li Aotian laughed and teased.

"I was indeed shocked, but I was more curious about what type of pill you would refine, what effect it had, and how much of it would provide me to Purple Cloud Pavilion at one time. ”

"Please forgive me for being straightforward, although we are friends, I am a businessman, since Li Daoyou is here to talk to me about business this time, it is better to make these things clear on the surface. ”

Ziyan said with a solemn expression.

"Happy, I like to deal with happy people, I am a kind of elixir that can improve the cultivation of the true yuan, called the Gathering Spirit Pill, and the grade is the second order lower grade. ”

"As for how much I can provide you with the Purple Cloud Pavilion at one time, it depends on how many alchemy materials you can provide to me in the Purple Cloud Pavilion. ”

"If you Ziyun Pavilion can provide the materials for refining a hundred Gathering Spirit Pills, I will guarantee that you can refine eighty, and if you can provide the materials for a thousand, I will be able to refine eight hundred Gathering Spirit Pills for you. ”

"You also know that even the highest-level alchemist can't guarantee that the pill will be successfully refined every time, but I can guarantee an eighty percent success rate. ”

Li Aotian said indifferently.

"Li Daoyou, are you sure you're not here to entertain me? Eighty percent success rate, how is this possible, even if a fourth-order alchemist comes to refine a second-order pill, there is no guarantee that it will have such a high success rate, and it is not bad to have four or fifty percent. ”

Ziyan said with suspicion on her face, she knew that Li Aotian was not an ordinary person, but alchemy could guarantee an eighty percent success rate, which was completely beyond the scope of her cognition.

"I have a lot of time, how can I have spare time to entertain you, don't talk nonsense, just say if you want to do this business with me. ”

Li Aotian said impatiently.

"If it is really as Li Daoyou said, with such a high success rate, I am naturally willing to do this business with you, after all, I am a businessman, how can I not do a business that makes money. ”

"But before that, I have a question for you, there are quite a few shops selling pills in my Taiyi City, and a few of them are even under the name of your Li family, why do you want to cheapen my Ziyun Pavilion." ”

Ziyan asked puzzled.

"The reason is very simple, because your Purple Cloud Pavilion not only has the strength to provide a large number of alchemy materials, but also the strength to sell a large number of pills, what I want is to get a large number of Yuan Crystals as quickly as possible, so I chose you Purple Cloud Pavilion. ”

Li Aotian did not shy away from it, and said honestly.

"Li Daoyou praised it falsely, thank you for looking up to me Ziyun Pavilion, in this way, you will tell me the materials needed to refine the Gathering Spirit Pill, and I will see if I can get it together, after all, if there are no materials, then everything is empty talk. ”

Seeing that Li Aotian had such a high evaluation of his Purple Cloud Pavilion, Ziyan, as the shopkeeper, couldn't close her mouth with a smile, and at the same time she asked about the materials needed for alchemy.

"There are a total of five kinds of materials needed to refine the Gathering Spirit Pill, all of which are common elixirs that are more than fifty years old, namely Kwai Yellow Grass, Green Jade Flower, White Lotus Leaf, Yellow Essence Root and Purple Jade Ginseng, this should not be a problem for you Ziyun Pavilion. ”

Li Aotian reported the names of the five elixirs.

"It's true that they are all common elixirs, but are you sure that they are more than fifty years old? Second-order elixirs generally require a hundred-year elixir to refine. ”

Ziyan was a little unsure, although she was not an alchemist, but as the shopkeeper of Ziyun Pavilion, she was still very clear about some common knowledge about pills.

"That's right, as long as it is more than fifty years old, if all the materials are successfully refined, five Gathering Spirit Pills can be refined. ”

"You only need to provide materials and alchemy venues to me, and when the time comes, you will share the Yuan Crystals sold by three and seven people, isn't this mutually beneficial. ”

Li Aotian spoke his mind.

"Thirty-seven points, I'm afraid this is not suitable, a second-order lower grade pill that can be cultivated intensively, the price is generally around forty yuan crystals, it depends on the specific effect. ”

"Although the cost of the materials you want is not high, and one of the five materials is about ten yuan crystals, but my Ziyun Pavilion sells it to the outside world, and it will be sold for at least twenty or thirty yuan crystals. ”

"In addition, we have to sell pills on behalf of you, and we have to provide you with a place for alchemy, these are all costly, by the way, the success rate of Cheng Dan has to be removed by two percent, and it is really a little less if it is only divided into three percent. ”

After hesitating for a moment, Ziyan said with some embarrassment.

"It's a lot, according to the eighty percent probability of Cheng Dan, one material can refine four Gathering Spirit Pills, if one of forty yuan crystals is one, that is one hundred and sixty yuan crystals, let's three or seven points, you can earn forty-eight yuan crystals for one material. ”

"You must know that among the forty-eight Yuan Crystals, your cost is only ten Yuan Crystals, and the other second-order pills are rare in my Taiyi City, my Gathering Spirit Pill is only for you to sell, and the benefits to your Purple Cloud Pavilion are far more than that. ”

I had already calculated the accounts in my heart, and Li Aotian said with a tough attitude, without any intention of letting go.

"Well, I don't think it's as good as this, according to Li Daoyou's seventy percent, you should account for one hundred and twelve yuan crystals for one alchemy material, and I will count you one hundred and fifteen yuan crystals. ”

"However, the pricing of this Gathering Spirit Pill, no matter how high or low, can only be set by my Purple Cloud Pavilion, what do you think?"

After thinking about it, Ziyan said another plan.

"After all, it is a businessman, this means that I have become the alchemist of your Purple Cloud Pavilion, and you just buy a hundred yuan crystals and a Gathering Spirit Pill, and it has nothing to do with me. ”

How could Li Aotian not know Ziyan's inner thoughts, he said with a smile.

"You can't say that, this is a mutually beneficial cooperation, didn't you just say that you urgently need Yuan Jing, in this way, as long as you refine one material into four Gathering Spirit Pills, my Ziyun Pavilion will immediately pay the corresponding Yuan Jing. ”

"In this way, you don't have to worry about whether the Gathering Spirit Pill can be sold, just refine it, you won't suffer a loss. Ziyan persuaded with a smile.

"Okay, then it's decided, without further ado, you can take me to the alchemy room now. ”

Li Aotian said and stood up directly.

"Right now?"

I didn't expect Li Aotian to be so anxious, and Ziyan also stood up.

"Yes, I will do it right away when all the materials are ready, but I don't want to be disturbed by outsiders when I am alchemizing. ”

Li Aotian specially instructed.

Knowing that the alchemist could not be disturbed during the alchemy, Ziyan nodded with a smile, and then summoned a maid to lead Li Aotian to an alchemy room on the third floor of the Ziyun Pavilion.

The alchemy room, as the name suggests, is a secret room specially set up for alchemy.

Compared to Li Aotian, the alchemy room of the Purple Cloud Pavilion was a little simple, and in addition to a fire-gathering array platform in the entire secret room, there was only one red pill furnace the size of a zhang.

In about half a period of time, Ziyan came to the alchemy room with a large number of alchemy materials, and handed Li Aotian a total of 100 materials for refining the Gathering Spirit Pill.

This is also the Purple Cloud Pavilion, if it is an ordinary small and medium-sized shop, even if it is a shop specializing in selling elixirs, it is impossible to gather so many elixirs in such a short period of time.

"Li Daoyou, because I haven't seen the Gathering Spirit Pill yet, I don't know what its effect is, so I would like to ask you to let me see it in advance after the first batch of pills are successfully refined?"

After handing over the alchemy materials to Li Aotian, Ziyan made a request, which Li Aotian did not refuse, and after nodding, he let Ziyan and the maid go out, and then closed the door of the secret room.
