The colorful flags are fluttering and everything is fragrant.
Located on the top of the mountain of Longmen Villa, it is a magnificent and antique building. The building is huge and majestic.
At the door, luxury cars gathered and everyone was there.
"Mr. Li hasn't come yet?"
"It's strange, this is the territory of the Li family. There's no reason why we shouldn't open the door at this time."
"Maybe I don't have confidence in today's Alchemy Level, so I just didn't come."
Everyone was talking.
As the host, the Li family did not show up in time for the second session of the Alchemy Conference, which is incredible. Especially since the Li family won one point in the martial arts competition yesterday, people can't help but wonder, could it be?
...The Li family didn't come on purpose? Do you want to make the alchemy process completely impossible?
"How dare the Li family!" Someone jumped out immediately and said, "If today's alchemy session is not held on time, we will definitely not recognize the position of president of the Li family."
"Yes!" Everyone reconsidered.
And while everyone was busy, a group of people walked slowly.
Mr. Li was wearing a gray Tang suit, holding a golden cauldron in his hand, with three pillars of incense inserted in the cauldron. Behind Mr. Li were the two sons of the Li family, and a group of people accompanying him.
"Eh? Isn't that Mr. Li?"
"It's strange, how did he come up the mountain?"
"It's hard for me to walk up the mountain, especially Mr. Li, who is nearly 90 years old."
Everyone fell silent immediately, and everyone's eyes widened.
Mr. Li held the incense burner in his hand, walked slowly in front of everyone, and said, "Everyone, I'm really sorry. I'm late."
"Mr. Li, what are you doing?" Everyone looked at him in confusion.
"Today is the Alchemy Conference. Recently, I have been burning incense and bathing, praying for God's blessing on China." Mr. Li looked at everyone seriously, and then said: "In front of this Alchemy Hall, there is a bronze statue of Master Hua Tuo that I ordered to cast. I
Holding the bronze cauldron, please go up the mountain with incense. I hope that Master Hua Tuo can make progress in Chinese alchemy, so that all Chinese people can live a long life."
Wow!
Everyone was in an uproar immediately.
Unexpectedly, this old man who is nearly ninety years old has been praying for China all the time. He even personally held the cauldron and walked up the mountain in order to make a breakthrough on the road to alchemy today. All members of the family drove
Come because the way up the mountain is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also difficult to walk.
Some people's faces suddenly turned red with shame.
Even though a ninety-year-old man was like this, not only was he not considerate, but he had just complained to Mr. Li.
"Mr. Li." A middle-aged man stepped out, bowed to Mr. Li, and said: "You are a role model for our generation. Mr. Li's re-election as the president of the Hong Kong Chamber of Commerce is a blessing to our Hong Kong Chamber of Commerce."
.”
"Yes, sir, I love you very much."
"Sir's actions make us ashamed."
All the people were ashamed.
After a simple worship, the door of the Alchemy Gym was opened.
Everyone entered in an orderly manner.
This alchemy hall is rich in heritage and antique. The carved jade railings are so beautiful and spectacular. Even everyone was shocked when they saw it.
"The carved railings and jade inlays in this ancient house are so beautiful."
"Yes, look at this painting. Only the wisdom of the ancients could make it so exquisite."
"Indeed."
Everyone nodded.
Li Juze said with a smile: "My father has always loved antiquities. This ancient building was discovered by him in a mountainous area in Jiangnan Province in the mainland. It was unmanaged and uncared for at the time. It has withstood years of wind and sun.
The building was in danger. My father seemed very heartbroken, so he spent money to buy it. He also ordered craftsmen to dismantle it, spent a lot of money to transport it to Hong Kong, and restored the ancient building on the top of the mountain."
Wow!
Everyone was amazed.
First of all, moving such a huge ancient building is already a huge project, and the moving fee may be ten times or even a hundred times more expensive than the money you paid for it. Secondly, repairing this ancient building
The cost is not small. Not only do we have to go to the mainland to find the remaining skilled craftsmen, but it also takes a lot of time.
"Oh my God, Mr. Li is really a great lover." Someone exclaimed.
"Didn't this construction take a lot of time?" asked the Chen family.
"It took a total of ten years." Li Juze smiled lightly and said, "It cost more than 300 million Hong Kong dollars."
"It's really a big deal." Everyone marveled again.
A dilapidated and crumbling building was transported back to Hong Kong from the mountainous areas of the mainland. Then it searched for skilled craftsmen and spent several years repairing it. How could it be done without a heart of great love?
In the building, dozens of beams and pillars support the entire building. The outer wall is made of ancient blue bricks and the top is covered with black tiles. The inner beams and pillars are carved with dragons and tigers leaping. The colorful paints have been restored in the later period and are very exquisite and perfect.
.Every beam and column seems to be a totem, and it seems to be a microcosm of an era. It makes people marvel at it again and again.
Guo Yi glanced at it and was truly amazed by these exquisite pictures.
Moreover, the carved railings on the door are very exquisite, so detailed that they look like the fingers of a little person.
"Not bad, not bad." Everyone nodded.
He led everyone through a long corridor and entered the central area of the ancient building.
A very open space with a light patio above the door.
In the open space, there is a huge platform in the middle. There are small grids on the platform, and in each grid there is a precious Chinese herbal medicine. This is the medicine table.
"Everyone, today's Alchemy Level 1 competition is here." Mr. Li said.
"Oh?" Everyone was surprised.
Mr. Li pointed to the medicine table and said: "For today's alchemy, my Li family spent tens of millions to purchase 108 precious medicinal materials. If the medicinal materials are not enough, please forgive me, after all, my ability is limited."
"And medicinal materials are provided?" Everyone was surprised.
I didn’t expect the Li family to be so generous? It is said that businessmen pursue profits, but no businessman would do charity for nothing. Even businessmen today do charity just to promote their own brands and enhance their influence. Really
There are not many people who are willing to do charity.
Mr. Li smiled calmly and said: "You can choose to use the medicinal materials provided by the Li family, or you can use your own medicinal materials. However, using the medicinal materials of the Li family... after all, you still have to pay a little errand fee."
"Erranding fee?" Everyone suddenly realized. There is really no free lunch in this world.
"Yes!" Mr. Li nodded and said, "The Li family will share half of the refined elixir."
"What if there is no elixir?" someone asked.
"The Li family doesn't take any money." Mr. Li waved his hand.
Everyone was immediately speechless. It was natural to pay a price for using other people's things.
"Okay!" Mr. Li smiled and said, "Everyone, the alchemy competition has officially begun."
