Chapter 2 Buzhou Palace
As an important industry under Fang Mei, the lord of Sifang City, the Sifang Pharmacy is naturally the largest pharmacy in Sifang City. The Sifang Pharmacy occupies an unusually large area, with exquisite and beautiful pavilions arranged closely around the perimeter of the pharmacy, and in the middle of these small buildings surrounds the main building of the pharmacy: a nine-storey square tower called the Sifang Medicine Tower.
This Quartet Medicine Tower is not only the tallest building in Sifang City, but also the landmark building of Sifang City, overlooking the entire Sifang City on the ninth floor of the Medicine Tower, all the scenery is in full view, at a glance, this is a good place to view the scenery, but the Quartet Medicine Tower is a place where ordinary idlers can't enter at all, not to mention the ninth floor of the Medicine Tower, and only a few powerful people in Sifang City can be lucky enough to go to the ninth floor of the Quartet Medicine Tower.
As the largest pill shop in Sifang City, Sifang Pharmacy is in charge of nearly eighty percent of the pill business in the city, in order to sell these pills more quickly, so the pill shop is built near the sea, and there is a special wharf not far from the medicine store, which is specially used to transport herbs and pills. Every day, truckloads of medicinal herbs are transported by sea to the pharmacy, and then refined by the pill master of the pharmacy into various pills, and then transported by sea to sell them to the outside world.
At this time, Zhou Fuyao was standing on the embankment not far from the Sifang Pharmacy, looking at the horizon of the sea with a fishy smell blowing in his face. When he was a child, Winning Doubles often took him to the beach by the sea to play. At that time, his mother often pointed to the other side of the sea and said to him: along this coastline all the way to the north, there is a place called Buzhou Palace, and that is his home. And as he grew older, he learned more and more about the Buzhou Palace, knowing that the Buzhou Palace was the same as the Wu Palace to which his mother belonged, and it was the top force on the Great Wilderness Star. Her mother told him that there was an aura that was dozens of times richer than that of the outside world, and there were powerful monks who could move mountains and reclaim the sea. There are many people like him who have cultivated to the point of cultivating at his age. There were even some cultivation wizards who had become Yuanying cultivators at his age.
After staying on the embankment for a while, Zhou Fuyao came back to his senses and walked towards the Sifang Pharmacy. He was going to complete the second task given to him by his mother, refining 200,000 eight-rank pills in the Sifang Pharmacy as an ordinary eight-rank pill master!
"Fuyao, my mother knows that you wonder in your heart: why did you let you enter the pharmacy as an eight-pin pill master. This is because Sifang City will be a little unpeaceful recently, and Niang will not be in the city, so Niang wants you to go to the Sifang Pharmacy to avoid the limelight. ”
Yesterday's words flashed in Zhou Fuyao's heart. He also asked what was going on, but Yingshuang said that he was still too young and didn't need to worry about these things. Zhou Fuyao also knows the temper of winning doubles, and he will never say what he doesn't want to say.
The closer Zhou Fuyao got to the gate of the Sifang Medicine Tower, the more noisy the sound in his ears became, and the fragrance of medicine in his nose became more and more intense. Zhou Fuyao followed the flow of people into the door of the pharmacy, and in front of him was an unusually wide hall, with a counter dozens of meters long on the left and a separated treatment room on the right. Around the hall stood a circle of samurai dressed in the light armor of the Shifang Yakuba. After Zhou Fuyao looked around, he walked directly towards one of the middle-aged warriors wearing captain's clothes and a kind face.
"This big brother, I'm here to find Fang Fu in charge, I don't know how to find him?" Zhou Fu shook his hand and said hello.
"You're here to apply for a job? Recently, our pharmacy has not been short of boys. If you want to apply for a small job, it is best to come at the end of the year, when there are more vacancies. The middle-aged samurai glanced at the young man standing in front of him, who was dressed ordinarily but had an unusually handsome appearance, and replied in a kind tone.
"I'm not here to apply for a job, I heard that your pharmacy is recruiting Dan masters all year round, so I came here. Although Zhou Fuyao was thought by the middle-aged warrior in front of him to apply for a job, the expression on his face did not change at all, and he took out a Danshi badge from the storage ring and sent it to the middle-aged warrior. This storage ring was given to him by his mother yesterday, and it was a reward for him to complete the first adult training task, but the space of this storage ring was not large, less than one cubic meter.
"Storage ring!" The middle-aged warrior looked at the storage ring on Zhou Fu's finger and exclaimed in surprise. He never thought that the young man in front of him, dressed in ordinary clothes, actually had a storage ring. The middle-aged warrior's eyes when he looked at Zhou Fuyao suddenly changed again. This storage ring is not a common thing in a place like Sifang City, only people who are rich and wealthy and have some background can use it, even if he is a warrior who mixes well in Sifang City, he can only afford to use a storage bag.
The middle-aged warrior nodded, and with a more and more kind smile on his face, he took the Danshi badge from Zhou Fuyao's hand, and when he saw the eight pills on the Dan furnace overlapping into a pyramid, his face became even kinder, he could afford to use the storage ring, and he could become an eight-rank Dan master at such a young age, this must not be an ordinary person. He had been in the Sifang Pharmacy for more than ten years, but it was rare to see such a young Eight Rank Dan Master.
"It was really rude to be here just now, but I didn't expect that you would already be an eight-rank Dan master at a young age. Our store recruits Danshi all year round, no matter how many Danshi there are, as long as you want to come to our pharmacy, our pharmacy needs it. Especially if you become an eight-pin Dan master at a young age, the more the merrier. Please keep up. The middle-aged warrior nodded, and at this time he had already changed his title to Master Danshi, and said with a respectful expression. After speaking, the middle-aged warrior carefully handed back the Danshi badge to Zhou Fuyao, and then made a gesture of please, leading Zhou Fuyao into the side door of the hall, passing through a long corridor full of guards. The two walked out of the hall without saying a word, walked through several connected small artificial ponds full of lotus flowers, and went straight into a small building.
"Steward Fang Fu, this is the Eighth Rank Dan Master: Zhou Fuyao, who wants to come to our pharmacy for alchemy. The middle-aged warrior led Zhou Fuyao to a hall in the middle of the building, and then walked to a middle-aged man who was sitting behind a desk and writing hard, and was in a rich state, arched his hand, leaned down and said.
"Eight Rank Dan Master!"
Fang Fu glanced up at Zhou Fuyao in a hurry, and when he saw that Zhou Fuyao was so young, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but this surprise was only fleeting, and it didn't let the two of them notice it. Fang Fu kindly pointed to the chair in the hall and said to Zhou Fuyao: "Xiaoyou, you sit down first, please wait for a while, I have some important things at hand, and it will be over soon." ”
"You go get busy first. Fang Fu saw Zhou Fu nodding, and then turned to the middle-aged warrior and said, and after speaking, he continued to be busy.
The middle-aged warrior walked up to Zhou Fuyao, who was sitting down, and said a few more words, and then turned around and left satisfied.
After a while, Fang Fu put down the brush in his hand, first put the notepad to his mouth and carefully dried the ink, and then closed the notebook, handed it to the little guy who was waiting on the side, and said, "Hurry up and send it over, don't delay things." ”
Fang Fu watched the little guy run out of the small building quickly and disappear around the corner, then he let out a long breath, flicked his sleeves, stood up, smiled at Zhou Fuyao and arched his hand, came to Zhou Fuyao's side, sat down on a stool next to him, and said with a smile at Zhou Fuyao: "Xiaoyou was a little anxious just now, how lazy! ”
Zhou Fu shook his hand and returned a smile that didn't care.
"Zhou Fuyao Xiaoyou, right?" Fang Fu picked up the teacup and asked as he took a sip lightly.
Fang Fu nodded when he saw Zhou Fuyao, and then pointed to the two words "steward" embroidered on the logo of the green shirt on his body, "I am Fang Fu, the steward of the Sifang Pharmacy, and all the ninth and eighth grade Dan masters are under my management, you can call me Fang Fu steward, how old is Xiaoyou this year?"
"Steward Hui Fangfu, I'm sixteen years old this year. Zhou Fuyao replied politely.
"It's very powerful! At the age of sixteen, he became an eight-rank Dan master, which is very rare. Fang Fu paused, then changed his tone and said, "It's just that if you want to apply for a Danshi, according to the rules, I still have to take a look at your Danshi badge in person." ”
Zhou Fu shook his head, took out the badge of the Eighth Rank Dan Master, and handed it to Fang Fu. Fang Fu took the pill badge handed over by Zhou Fuyao, first looked at it carefully, and then felt the breath in the badge, making sure that the breath in the badge was not different from the breath on Zhou Fuyao's body in front of him, then he nodded with satisfaction, and asked again: "Is Xiaoyou here to complete the adult experience?"
Zhou Fu shook his head and replied, "Steward Fang Fu is right. ”
"I'll just say, if you can become an eight-rank Dan master at such a young age, Xiaoyou, it must have been cultivated by some family! There are many Dan masters of your age in our Sifang Pharmacy who have completed their adult training, but most of them are only Jiupin Dan masters. It is really rare to be able to become an eight-rank Dan master at your age, and it is still rare. Xiaoyou's talent is already very good. ”
"Xiaoyou, although you only came to our pharmacy to complete the training task, not to alchemy in our pharmacy for a long time, you still enjoy the same treatment as other Dan masters. Fang Fu continued.
"Little friend, I'll just pick it out and tell you straight! Our pharmacy calculates wages like this: 'the total value of Cheng Dan' minus the 'total value of the resources you consume' to get the number of spirit stones, and forty percent of this number is yours. If the resources you consume are greater than the value of Cheng Dan, you will also have to compensate the pharmacy for the extra losses. Wages are paid on a daily basis and are calculated once a day. So Xiaoyou, do you still need to think about it!" Fang Fu paused, staring at Zhou Fuyao with a glittering gaze and said.
"Fang Fu is in charge, I understand. Zhou Fuyao nodded and replied without thinking. Before he came, his mother had already told him about the stakes. He is a five-rank pill master, refining the eight-rank pill, is it possible to fail? impossible!
