"........."
"In short, this is what happened. Xu's Alchemy Shop is finished. This is the contract you signed. I have also taken back the copy that was left in the Law Enforcement Hall for you."
Wang Yu slammed nine pieces of waste paper on the table. Zhou Tao wanted to say something but stopped himself. What Wang Yu said was really a bit outrageous.
That being the case, the alchemy shop was closed down?
Deacon Xu is a master of foundation building, but he has no reaction at all? ? ?
Luo Pinghu frowned and couldn't help but speak.
"Wang Yu, you said it was easy, but what about the details? And how did you get the contract back?"
"I naturally have my own channels, so don't worry about it."
"you---"
Zhou Tao suddenly stretched out his hand to stop Luo Pinghu, and nodded calmly. Only then did they realize that after not seeing him for one night, the aura Wang Yu exuded had already reached the fourth level of Qi training.
Breakthrough?
But what does it matter? Luo Pinghu was puzzled and was not prepared to listen to Zhou Tao's instructions. The three of them had formed a group before because they wanted Zhou Tao to be the leader so that it would be more convenient to talk to Danpu and they would have more say.
Last night's dinner was a cooperation intention. Wang Yu was also invited, but he declined. Seeing that there was nothing to say, Luo Pinghu said goodbye.
"In that case, thank you, Brother Wang, for getting the contract back for me. Bye."
"Don't worry."
Wang Yu spoke again.
"Everyone has been practicing in the Nilingxue Sect for a long time. Do you feel how difficult it is to practice?
"Without resources, your cultivation progress is slow, and it is almost impossible to build a foundation. Without a background, you can't make any progress, and you don't even have the qualifications to have a normal conversation."
"What does Master Wang Dan mean by this?"
Zhou Tao asked, and Wang Yu answered with a smile.
"This is a rare opportunity. It's not easy for four of us to gather together as alchemists without any experience. Why not set up an alchemist association to sell pills together and cooperate with those official pill shops?"
"Ah---"
Luo Pinghu's tone was both sarcastic towards Wang Yu and helpless about his own situation: "It's easy to say, you have resources? You have a background? Three stinky alchemists, plus you, a one-armed man, why should you cooperate with the alchemy shop? You can't even meet the foundation-building deacon."
What he said was biased. Wang Yu, Luo Pinghu and Huang Kai did belong to the lower class, but Zhou Tao was different, even though he had no background.
His skills as an eighth-level Qi training master and a top-grade alchemist were enough for him to work in any alchemy shop, but the fact that he came to Xu's Alchemy Shop showed that he was in trouble as well.
Either he offended someone or was squeezed out of his original shop by his colleagues, otherwise he would not have come to this newly opened shop. He invited us to dinner yesterday, which shows that he is a thoughtful person.
Wang Yu didn't care at all about Luo Pinghu's sarcasm. He was just an ordinary cultivator who was oppressed miserably. To be able to learn alchemy, he must have put in a huge amount of effort.
Now, he finally found a well-paid job, but it's suddenly gone. Naturally, he's in a bad mood and gets angry at the slightest provocation.
Zhou Tao was thoughtful and Luo Pinghu was emotional, but Huang Kai, who had been silent, was taken very seriously by Wang Yu. Wang Yu thought that his personality was the type of person who was tenacious.
He was very calm and although he didn't express his opinion, he didn't show any intention of getting up and leaving.
The three of them have their own characteristics, and Wang Yu has confidence in working together.
A moment of silence.
It was Zhou Tao who spoke first: "Tell me about your confidence and plan. If it makes sense, I can join."
Wang Yu looked at Huang Kai after hearing this. The taciturn man also spoke up: "Brother Zhou and I have similar ideas."
"What about you, Luo Pinghu, do you want to listen?" This guy didn't say anything, but he didn't leave. Seeing the attitude of the three people, Wang Yu felt more confident. He reached out and took out the law enforcement token he had just obtained last night from the storage bag.
"Yes, this is Wang's confidence."
The Law Enforcement Hall is the place that countless grassroots of the Nilingxue Sect have long dreamed of. Being able to join it means having the opportunity to become the core of the sect in the future and having one foot in the ranks of the powerful.
Wang Yu had a similar background to them, and he had only one arm. Naturally, the three of them would not think that he had an extraordinary background. Yesterday he was still a hired alchemist, but today was completely different.
For people like them, if they want to become monks of the Law Enforcement Hall, there is only one way: to be appreciated by a big shot!
Zhou Tao thought about it and felt that the closure of Xu's Alchemy Shop was related to Wang Yu. This was an intuition, and he made up his mind immediately.
"I'll join."
"I'll join in too."
"Brother Pinghu?"
"Can I...can I..."
"Of course." Wang Yu stepped forward and patted Luo Pinghu on the shoulder with a smile, comforting him: "It's okay, we are friends, and no one will take it to heart."
Luo Pinghu breathed a sigh of relief quietly, not knowing that the body of the last friend who was patted on the shoulder by Wang Yu had been refined.
“Since you have agreed, let me tell you the significance of this Alchemist Association and the conveniences you can enjoy.
"In general, I will use my identity to supply the elixirs refined by you brothers to any store in the Nixue Ten Workshops."
Don't underestimate the significance of this operation.
The Nixue Ten Workshops are the sect's internal industry. It is not only a platform for training disciples, but also a tool for collecting spirit stones. The business here is monopolized.
Any alchemy shop within the Ten Nixuefangs that wants to have the right to operate must get the approval of the Alchemy Hall. The relationships are intricate and there is competition among all kinds of connections. It is difficult to get a store, qualifications, and channels!
The model of setting up a piece of cloth on the roadside and walking away is prohibited.
Even if your neighbors know that you are an alchemist and come to you to buy pills, private selling is not allowed and is prohibited by the sect rules.
Therefore, the qualification to sell is very important. Wang Yu gradually came to understand this after he came into contact with the alchemy circle. He also has to thank the medicine garden for that half year.
The second is the source of spiritual medicines. For example, if she used her connections with Hanxue Peak to obtain a medicine garden like the one that Deacon Tan Tai owned, she could only trade the mature spiritual medicines to the pill shop under Hanxue Peak.
Only a small portion of the spiritual medicines were traded among disciples.
Most of those who have purchasing needs are also alchemists. After they have mastered the most basic alchemy skills, they will go to various alchemy shops to work and become qualified workers.
If you want to own your own business, you must at least go through the foundation-building period to have room for operation.
Moreover, if you go to a regular store to buy spiritual medicine in bulk, the price is too high and not cost-effective, so you need to have your own spiritual medicine channel.
Therefore, the first thing Wang Yu promised made the three of them very excited.
Who would want to work if you can make money by selling pills?
Zhou Tao couldn't help but ask.
"How will it be done? What will the selling price be? How much profit can we get?"
"Don't worry, I'm not finished yet.
"Leave it to me to find the channels for purchasing spiritual medicines and the qualifications for selling pills. You just need to concentrate on refining pills. I guarantee that you will earn three times what you did in the past, no more, no less."
The three of them were naturally very tempted. Regardless of whether Wang Yu could do it or not, joining this alchemist association would definitely be a good deal.
"Now, your first priority is to go to the Alchemy Hall and get the alchemist level certificate recognized by the sect."
