The boy from the Chamber of Commerce knocked on the door of the room and said softly: "Manager Fan, there is a customer who wants to purchase a batch of medicinal materials."
"Come in."
A rich middle-aged man's voice came from the room.
The boy from the Chamber of Commerce opened the door and said to Xu Yuan: "My lord, our Baicao Chamber of Commerce purchases a large number of medicinal materials by Manager Fan. My lord, just give Manager Fan the list of medicinal materials you need, and he will arrange it for you."
OK."
Xu Yuan nodded and then walked into the room.
The room is very bright and bright. There is a rectangular wooden table with several potted plants. At this moment, a middle-aged man is sitting in front of the table, flipping through a book.
The middle-aged man is about forty years old. He is relatively thin and has a gentle and elegant appearance.
Hearing the movement at the door, the middle-aged man also put down the book in his hand, then stood up and greeted Xu Yuan to sit down with a smile: "Sir, please sit down. I am Fan Yu, the steward of the Baicao Chamber of Commerce. I wonder what medicinal materials you need? Do you have a list?
?"
"Yes." Xu Yuan sat down and handed the list of boiling blood pill ingredients prepared in advance to the middle-aged man.
Fan Yu took the list and checked it, and after a while he said: "We all have the medicinal materials on this list at the Baicao Chamber of Commerce. Sir, how many copies do you want? I'll ask someone to prepare them for you."
"How many two?"
Xu Yuan asked softly, first asking about the price.
"The price is not cheap, it costs five hundred taels per copy."
Fan Yu glanced at Xu Yuan and said slowly.
"Five hundred taels?"
Xu Yuan did not make a sound, but marveled in his heart.
Even if he had been mentally prepared that the medicinal materials of the Boiling Blood Pill would definitely not be cheap, it was still too expensive! One portion cost five hundred taels. If Xu Yuan had not looted the treasure house of Tiexuan Villa, he would not have been able to buy several copies!
"Fortunately, the recipe for the Boiling Blood Pill states that one medicinal material can be used to refine up to five Boiling Blood Pills. It would be a real loss if there are only two or three pills."
Xu Yuan felt comforted in his heart, then he pondered for a moment and said, "Please help me get five copies first."
"Okay, sir, please wait here for a moment and drink tea first. I'll ask someone to get you some medicine."
Fan Yu said with a smile, "Two thousand five hundred taels, this is a rare and big deal.
Fan Yu made Xu Yuan a cup of tea and then left the room, returning not long after with five brocade boxes.
"Sir, these are the five medicinal materials you asked for. Please keep them."
Fan Yu handed the five brocade boxes in his hand to Xu Yuan.
Xu Yuan nodded, and after taking the brocade box, he didn't stay too long and turned around to leave.
This time he spent 2,500 taels. Even if Xu Yuan still had more than 20,000 taels in his body, he would still feel some pain in his body.
After returning home, Xu Yuan immediately started refining.
"Redwood flowers, nebula flowers, topaz grass are ground into powder, silver antlers and lilywood are boiled and then exposed to the sun, and thousand silk grass is distilled, and the distilled liquid is preserved..."
Before refining, Xu Yuan first prepared the medicinal materials of Boiling Blood Pill one by one according to the instructions recorded on the pill recipe.
Xu Yuan is very focused and careful in every task and does not dare to be careless in the slightest.
After all the medicinal materials were prepared, Xu Yuan took them to the alchemy room and started to light a fire under the alchemy furnace. When the flames burned to a certain level, Xu Yuan added water to the alchemy furnace, and then placed the prepared medicines one by one.
Medicinal materials are placed in it.
The refining began soon. Xu Yuan's attention was focused on the changes in the alchemy furnace, and his hand was placed on the bellows, pulling the bellows from time to time to control the heat, very seriously.
After an hour and a half, the alchemy was finished. As expected, it failed. The alchemy furnace was dark and exuded an unpleasant smell.
"The difficulty and complexity of refining this boiling blood pill cannot be compared to that of the Qi Power Pill. No wonder the Qi Power Pill is listed as a basic elixir for beginners to practice, alas."
Xu Yuan couldn't help but secretly sigh. The difficulty of refining this boiling blood pill is several times that of the strength pill. No wonder the prescription says that it is almost impossible to refine it with entry-level alchemy skills.
"It's okay to be stumped. The most important thing is that the medicinal materials are too expensive. Now five hundred taels are gone. The profession of alchemy is really expensive. No wonder there are so few alchemists."
Xu Yuan was quite helpless and didn't plan to refine it anymore. With his current alchemy skills, there was no chance of success in refining it. It would just be a waste of more money.
"It seems we can only wait until alchemy reaches the first level."
Xu Yuan pondered in his heart. If he wanted to successfully refine the Boiling Blood Pill, judging from the current situation, he could only wait until the alchemy skill reached the first level.
It is recorded in the Alchemy Record that although it is easy to get started with alchemy, it is extremely difficult to get to the first level. This is a leap from basic elixirs to high-quality elixirs. It will take several years at least. Alchemists are not that kind.
Easy to become.
Xu Yuan plans to rely on attribute points to add points. If he relies on his own energy, even if he has some talent in alchemy, it will probably take about a year or two.
Next, it is time to wait for the recovery of attribute points. It has been more than 20 days since Xu Yuan last restored attribute points. In a few days, he will be able to recover 1 attribute point. But Xu Yuan feels that just by relying on
I am afraid that 1 attribute point cannot be used to add points to alchemy.
Xu Yuan didn't think any more and went into the house to start making precious blood soup.
These days, he has not missed taking the precious blood soup. Now that he has entered the master realm, he needs to drink two or three pots of precious blood soup in a row after each practice to replenish the lost physical strength and condition.
The days passed so quietly, and in the blink of an eye it was seven days later.
Attribute points:1/23
Skills to master: Alchemy (Introduction)
"Sure enough, 1 attribute point cannot add points to alchemy, so we can only continue to wait."
Xu Yuan looked at the attribute panel and pondered in his heart. He was not very surprised by this result. Alchemy, as an advanced skill that allows a person to become an alchemist, must require more attribute points than ordinary physical training level martial arts points. Xu Yuan began to wait for a long time. He stayed in the house, practiced and drank precious blood soup every day, and occasionally refined the elixirs of Qi Power Pills. He basically didn't go out much. Even when he went out, he would buy the precious blood soup and Qi Power Pills.
Need medicinal materials, or buy groceries.
Although the days are a little boring, they are very fulfilling.
Two months later, Xu Yuan opened the properties panel again.
Name:Xu Yuan(20/145)
Attribute points:3/23
Martial arts: Wild Bull Demon Fist (fifth level), gravel kick (fourth level), Tianyang Kung Fu (second level)
Skills to master: Alchemy (Introduction)
Realm: Early stage of Grandmaster Realm
"You can add more!"
Looking at the properties panel, Xu Yuan was very happy. He had been waiting for more than two months for this moment!
"Add more!"
Without hesitation, Xu Yuan quickly focused all his thoughts on the number behind the alchemy technique. Suddenly, the words "Get Started" became blurred and distorted, and slowly transformed into the words "First Level".
At the same time, just like adding some martial arts, when adding some alchemy skills, scenes of memory fragments also appeared in Xu Yuan's mind.
Among these memory fragments, they are all scenes when Xu Yuan was refining alchemy. He stayed in front of the alchemy furnace, constantly pulling the bellows, controlling the heat, turning on the furnace, and making the elixir!
One furnace after another, several years like a day, Xu Yuan's alchemy success rate is also rising sharply.
After a while, the memory fragments in Xu Yuan's mind disappeared.
Xu Yuan slowly opened his eyes. Although his body did not change, Xu Yuan clearly felt that there were many more attainments and experiences in alchemy in his mind, which was completely different from before adding some points. He recalled the Boiling Blood Pill again.
The refining steps, which were previously obscure and unsolvable, are now all solved with his profound experience in alchemy, and there is no obstacle at all!
"Exhilarating! Although it is only the first level, it is not comparable to entry-level alchemy!"
Feeling that the alchemy steps of the Boiling Blood Pill are no longer stressful for me now, Xu Yuan's face is also filled with a smile of joy.
The next moment, he did not hesitate, struck while the iron was hot, and rushed into the alchemy room to refine the boiling blood pill. This time he had sufficient confidence!
