Chapter 111: Roll Call

This promotion was expected by Wu Hao.

He had already discovered an additional effect of krypton gold to improve the level of exercises, that is, it was used to break through the bottleneck of cultivation.

Generally speaking, in the process of cultivation, when each small realm is promoted to the next small realm, there will be corresponding bottlenecks.

This bottleneck varies from person to person, and the way to break through it varies. Some need to be cultivated, some need to relax, some are as simple as eating and drinking, and some are as difficult as heaven.

There are also many people who have been stuck in a bottleneck for several years and have not been able to advance.

However, there is a recognized good way to break through the bottleneck in the cultivation world, and that is to transfer to a higher level of martial arts.

Because advanced martial arts contains many martial arts concepts and more advanced exercise operation methods, it has a lot of reference for breaking through bottlenecks. Even the so-called bottlenecks of many low-level exercises are nothing to higher-level exercises.

Wu Hao had several promotions before, all of which were when he was facing a bottleneck, and then krypton gold to improve the level of the exercises to break through.

Krypton has a unique role in the promotion of bottlenecks, but it is slightly insufficient in the usual cultivation accumulation. However, the pills are precisely good at this aspect, and many of the pills that are now circulating among the inner disciples are pills that can reduce the time for the accumulation of true qi in ordinary times.

This elixir is relatively common, and the price is not too high.

However, the elixirs that hit the bottleneck are much rarer, and they are generally priceless. Once it appears, it will often be speculated to sky-high prices.

From this point of view, the abilities of the pill and Ah Krypton are quite complementary, which makes Wu Hao satisfied.

In this way, he can usually rely on pills or his own cultivation to improve, and once he reaches the bottleneck, he will be able to improve his skill level with krypton. In this way, he will be able to improve himself with the greatest efficiency, strive to achieve the Qi refining period as soon as possible, and form a good alchemy of true qi.

Once he was able to refine the pill independently, the cost of his cultivation would be further reduced.

Knowing that the pill could make money and improve his cultivation, Wu Hao had a great interest in Master Yuan's knowledge of the Dan Dao. In the past few days, while preparing for the apprenticeship banquet, he has followed Master Yuan to learn some basic knowledge of alchemy.

After the continuous strengthening of the "Linglong Fang", Wu Hao's comprehension has been greatly improved. Wu Hao felt that if he traveled back now, it should not be a problem to be admitted to Qingbei University.

With such understanding, Wu Hao naturally drew inferences from others and made rapid progress when he learned.

This made Master Yuan feel very relieved, and he was even more satisfied with the apprentice he had received. In the past few days, he has asked Wu Hao to help him deal with some personal affairs.

Nowadays, Master Yuan does not have many personal affairs, mainly to receive gifts.

Seeing the scale of Master Yuan's gifts, Wu Hao knew what it meant to be a small witch, and in just one day, Master Yuan received at least ten times as many gifts as Wu Hao, and Wu Hao's heart was drooling wildly.

He secretly made up his mind in his heart that he would definitely become an alchemy master, and when the time came, he would accept apprentices and accept him one hundred and eighty.

When the time comes, the apprenticeship banquet will be held every once in a while, and how many gifts will you have to receive!

Now Wu Hao's job is to count the gifts with several other brothers and sisters, register and make a book, and by the way, be polite to the people who come to give gifts.

Of course, they also have to sort the gifts according to their value, and finally pick the nine with the highest value.

According to the rules of this world, the day of the apprenticeship banquet is to be called by name.

The so-called roll call means that before the banquet begins, when the guests arrive, a special master of ceremonies will announce the names of the gifts brought by the guests.

Because of the tone and frustration, the sound is like singing, so it is called "roll call".

For example, "Elder Lu of the Refining Instrument Hall congratulates the Dharma Weapon Sumeru Ring!", "Three Strains of Zhangjiahe Elixir Silk Horse Clover in Juyan City!".

In this way, it can not only show the pomp of the organizer of the banquet, but also take care of the face of the gift-giving guests, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Of course, it is not possible for every guest to sing during the roll call. On the one hand, the banquet has a limited time, so it is not appropriate to procrastinate, on the other hand, it is to prevent the comparison from causing conflicts, and it is also to take care of the face of the guests with light gifts.

If you sing a sentence at that time: "Luoyun City Wu has a copper coin!", this will make the faces of the organizer and the guests dull, and they will become completely offended.

Therefore, there is a fixed limit on the number of guests who can be called, and because of the scale and shape of the banquet, it is divided into a large banquet, a medium banquet, and a small banquet.

The big banquet is named ninety-nine eighty-one, taking the meaning of ninety-nine to return to the truth.

The Chinese banquet is 7749 in the roll call, and the so-called number of Dayan is fifty, and there are nine out of forty.

The small banquet needs to be called by nine digits, nine is the extreme, and the first nine can represent everyone.

As long as the roll call can reach the above number, even if it represents all the guests, no one can say that the organizer has no courtesy.

Of course, if you can't even get together the number of guests for the roll call, then just invite guests in private, and don't hold a so-called banquet with great fanfare.

Although Wu Hao's apprenticeship banquet is not small, it can only be regarded as a small banquet according to the general law, and only nine people need to be named.

It is not that the number of guests is enough to increase the regulation of the banquet.

Like in the Red Lotus Sect, a big banquet is usually held only when the sect master ascends the throne. When someone is promoted to the god realm, or a true disciple appears, a middle banquet is usually held.

For example, the elders accept apprentices, and the convention is commonly known as holding a small banquet, and if the specifications are raised, it will be a bit arrogant.

Since there is a custom of roll call, the congratulatory gifts are generally not delivered on the same day, but a few days in advance, so that the organizers have a time to prepare.

If the gift is expensive and happens to be among the roll callers, the master of ceremonies will sing the gifts that have already been given by the guests when they arrive.

Wu Hao's task is to classify and plan the gifts they receive, and then select nine guests who need to be called by name.

In general, this roll call is divided by the value of the gift, so that no one can pick out what is not.

However, there are also special circumstances such as the status of the guest being too noble and a large part of the other guests. At this time, a roll call quota will be specially arranged for others.

In this case, if the distinguished guest knows the courtesy, he will also prepare a gift that can be said to be reasonable, so that both parties will have face after singing.

But sometimes there will be some VIPs who don't know why they can't get the gifts, so that if they don't give him a roll call, they won't give him face, and giving him a roll call will make him lose face.

In such a situation, the roll call will generally be carried out as usual, but the spring and autumn brushwork will be used in the place of the gift to take care of the face of the distinguished guests.

For example, if a nobleman surnamed Wu in Luoyun City gave a copper coin as a gift, he must also be named.

At this time, he will sing: "Lord Wu of Luoyun City, a strange treasure!"

Because copper coins have a special function in divination, no one can find fault with calling copper coins a treasure of divination.

In fact, there are even more excessives in history.

In order to slap his face, a big man surnamed Zhao specially arranged for someone to send to others when the banquet was approaching.

At this time, there is still a way to sing.

For example...... "Lord Zhao congratulates the reincarnation of a strange thing!"
