Chapter 98 Dongchang Makes Money and Dongchang Flower
Yang Fan watched this scene happen with no expression on his face.
The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit.
The scene in front of me is the best interpretation of these four words, the winner takes all, and the loser will never have any room to make a comeback.
Not long after, Yang Fan accompanied Concubine Chen back to the palace. Just after noon, Deputy Manager Lin hurried back and took out a porcelain vase from his sleeve.
The porcelain bottle contains the bone essence extracted from Eunuch Li's skeleton by the arsenal master. It is like a colloidal liquid, showing a dark black color and without any taste.
"Mother, what you asked for is ready."
He had a flattering smile on his face and bowed his body, hating that he didn't have a tail to wag.
No matter how Eunuch Li died, he was dead after all, and the position of the manager of the Evergreen Palace was now vacant. Judging from the current situation in the palace, who else could take this position!
Of course, the final decision was made by Concubine Chen.
Therefore, Deputy General Manager Lin tried his best to show his loyalty in order to get promoted by Concubine Chen.
"Well, you go down."
Unfortunately, no one looked at him after all the flirtatious looks, so Concubine Chen sent him away directly, leaving Yang Fan alone.
Deputy Manager Lin lowered his head, bowed and closed the palace door. He took one last look at Yang Fan's back and felt so jealous that his mouth was sore.
"Isn't it just that I look better than me, I'm younger than me, I have a better figure than me, I talk nicer than me, and I work more diligently than me..."
"Besides these, what else does he have?"
Deputy Manager Lin left with a broken heart, but he did not dare to blame Concubine Chen in the slightest, but he felt a lot of resentment towards Yang Fan in his heart.
In the palace.
"Where's your sword?"
"it's here."
Yang Fan took out the Bone Judgment Sword from under his eunuch uniform.
After last night's battle, it turned out to be pitted, scarred, and even had a few obvious cracks, which made Yang Fan feel distressed for a while.
List The concubine waved her hand and handed the bottle of bone essence in her hand to Yang Fan and said: "Use the cultivation method of sword control to warm and nourish the sword body with this bottle of essence."
"Yes, empress."
Yang Fan took it and no longer disliked that it came from Eunuch Li.
According to the method recorded in the sword-controlling art, he began to warm the sword body with his soul, and at the same time poured bone essence into the sword body.
The blue-black gelatinous liquid fell on the white bone sword. It was only a small area at first, but in a moment, the entire sword body was dyed blue-black.
Those damaged areas were filled and repaired with bone essence, and Yang Fan could clearly see that the entire sword body was recovering rapidly.
Buzz.
About a quarter of an hour later, the sword body was completely repaired, and it hummed spiritually, and the sound of the sword echoed throughout the palace.
"Whoosh!"
Yang Fan tried to summon his soul, and sure enough, the Bone Judgment Sword drew an arc around him in an instant, with faster speed and stronger power.
If it was traveling so fast before, there would be bursts of howling sounds in the air, but this time it was different. It seemed to break through the air resistance in an instant, traveling through the air extremely smoothly without making even a sound.
!
"If this were used for assassination, I'm afraid it would be even more powerful than before!"
Yang Fan was quite surprised.
Concubine Chen chuckled lightly: "Now you know the benefits?"
"Empress, what on earth is going on?"
"Of course this is the magic effect of this bottle of bone essence."
Concubine Chen's eyes fell on Yang Fan's sword and she said lightly, "I don't know where this old dog got the basic skills of Bone Shura. Although he only mastered a little bit of it, his bones were obviously better than those of Yang Fan.
At the same level, even the ribs of the great demon are inferior to it. Using its essence to enhance your sword will naturally be of infinite effectiveness."
Yang Fan nodded, quite happy.
A stronger sword means that his sword control skills are more powerful, and he can naturally unleash more powerful power at critical moments.
"Okay, you go and get ready. Tomorrow is the day to leave the palace. Huayan Temple and his party, I will rely on you to be by my side."
"Yes, empress."
Yang Fan's heart trembled.
A lot of things happened in the past two days, which made him almost forget about Huayan Temple. However, he knew that this day would come sooner or later...??.
Yang Fan left the Evergreen Palace and was not idle. He needed to improve his condition to its peak in the shortest possible time, and he also needed to reserve some elixirs for emergencies.
After counting his inventory, he found that Dongchang's monthly payment of 20 taels, plus the extra money gained from raiding Manager Luo and Eunuch Li, totaled more than 1,320 taels.
And a bottle of eight Qi and Blood Pills.
The Huansheng Dan that Yang Fan took was still exerting its effect, slowly repairing his body. He carried all his wealth and went directly to Dongchang.
I heard eunuch Sun Rong mention it last time that there is a special alchemy room in the East Factory, and they can use merit or money to exchange for various elixirs.
And that's where Yang Fan's goal is this time.
After he showed his badge as a factory worker, he finally entered the East Factory again and went straight to the alchemy room.
The person guarding the alchemy room was a middle-aged eunuch with a fair face and a beardless appearance. He had a ledger and abacus in front of him and had a shrewd look in his eyes.
After Yang Fan stated his intention, the other party directly threw him a roster.
"Whatever elixir you want to change, it's all listed here."
Yang Fan took the roster and saw that it was densely filled with the names and prices of elixirs. The most basic one was Qi and Blood Pills, which cost five taels of silver each.
"Hey, I've already entered Dongchang, can't it be cheaper?"
Yang Fan muttered secretly.
< br> While muttering, he quickly browsed through the list, including Tiger and Leopard Health Pills, Xiong Dan Yuzhen Pills, and even some detoxifying pills, Qingxin Pills, etc., all kinds of varieties.
Finally, his eyes fell on the Resurrection Pill.
One thousand five hundred taels of silver!
“So expensive!”
Yang Fan took a breath of air, his face suddenly changed, and he secretly thought that he was at a loss!
Calculating this, he killed Eunuch Li and Manager Luo. The two of them combined were not as expensive as the Resurrection Pill he took!
It’s like a loss to grandma’s house!
Yang Fan suddenly felt a pain in his body, but the effect of the Resurrection Pill made him even more excited. If he could buy one, he could save his life at the critical moment.
He hesitated for a moment and asked, "Can't the price of the Resurrection Pill be cheaper?"
The middle-aged eunuch raised his eyelids, glanced at him, and said coldly: "The factory worker only has a 10% discount, so there is no bargain."
"10% off?"
Yang Fan quickly calculated and found that the 10% discount of one thousand five hundred taels was exactly one thousand three hundred and fifty taels. He now had one thousand three hundred and twenty taels!
Wait, he also has a bottle of Qi and Blood Pill issued by Dongchang!
"Shall we recycle Qi and Blood Pills here?"
Yang Fan laughed dryly.
When he walked out of the alchemy room, he had a medicine bottle containing the Resurrection Pill and the remaining two Qi and Blood Pills in his hand.
The Qi and Blood Pills were recovered by the middle-aged eunuch at 4.25 per pill, and he even lost the bottle!
If it weren't for the fact that there were almost four taels of scattered silver at the end, he might not even be able to save the last two Qi and Blood Pills.
Standing at the door of the alchemy room, Yang Fan held the elixir bottle and was silent for a long time.
The whole person's figure became more and more desolate.
If you get closer, you can hear him muttering this sentence repeatedly.
