Chapter 56 Huang Ling's Entrustment (2/3)



"Then we can lower our price to theirs and tell those monks. Wouldn't that attract people to come to us?"

"This is too direct, isn't it like stealing customers? What if it causes trouble?"

"I've inquired about it. Behind these alchemy shops, there is at most one foundation-building cultivator, but our family now has nine foundation-building cultivators. When Lu Rou mentioned this, her face was full of excitement. "Even if our family doesn't have a golden elixir cultivator, we have nine foundation-building cultivators, which is no less than the number of foundation-building cultivators in those golden elixir families. These alone are enough for us to show off our power."

"Yeah, that's right." The young man next to Lu Rou also straightened his chest and nodded.

"The businesses of those Jindan families are all in the inner market. I'm afraid these shops in the outer market can't afford to offend our Lu family. Besides, the cultivation world is all about competition."

"Besides, we don't steal or rob. We are just a little cheaper than them. Didn't you hear Brother Xuanping say that he doesn't charge for alchemy? It's also for the good of those cultivators."

After hearing this, Lu Jun nodded again.

"Also, don't just nod your head all the time. Remember, talk more."

"knew!"

“Then Lu Rou thought about it, took out five more spirit stones and handed them to Lu Jun, and said, “Go buy some gifts tomorrow for the mortals around the advertisement.”

"Why is this happening again, sister?"

"Don't worry about it. Just listen to me and give it to them. Just say that it's a gift from the Lu family's foundation-building master to these mortals. Did you hear me?"

"Yeah, I see, sister."

"It really gives me a headache."

See that tomorrow's tasks have been planned.

Lu Jun's eyes suddenly turned and said, "Sister, why do you think Brother Xuanping is so powerful?"

"Because he's a genius. And don't ask about things you shouldn't ask about."

"Okay, sister, can we go to bed now?" Lu Jun felt sleepy instantly after being asked by his sister all the time.

"It's okay now, go to bed quickly, otherwise it will be bad if you get up late tomorrow."

Looking at her somewhat dazed brother, Lu Rou didn't know what to say. Their mother was only an intermediate-level Qi training cultivator, and their father was a late-stage Qi training cultivator. They had been practicing well on Chongming Island. It was foreseeable that if she didn't have great opportunities in this life, she would not be able to reach the foundation-building stage.

But her parents had some old ties with Elder Xuanwu, so they entrusted them to Elder Xunwu. Later, when Elder Xuanwu was preparing to travel, he thought of them and said he would take them out to see the world. As a result, two weeks ago, they heard that Brother Lu Xuanping had actually become a Foundation Establishment cultivator. You know, it has only been two years since the family announced that he had reached the late stage of Qi training.

Her talent was mediocre, and her brother was better than her, but not much better.

Now that they had the support of two foundation-building monks, they naturally had to work harder and not let people think they were lazy, so she insisted that Lu Jun be more diligent.

"Well, this brother is really worrying."

Lu Xuanping, who entered the alchemy room, set up some prohibitions to isolate some temperature and sound. After that, his consciousness spread out and he naturally heard the conversation between the brothers and sisters. He just smiled and did not stop them. After all, he asked them to borrow his name, and naturally he wanted to steal other people's business.

He would not have done so originally, but when he thought that a top-grade magic weapon only cost four or five thousand spirit stones, Lu Xuanping naturally wanted to compete by lowering the price.

When resources are sufficient, people are naturally harmonious and loving. But when resources are scarce, people will naturally fight for every penny.

Moreover, he had two advantages. One was that those alchemy shops needed the assistance of earth fire to refine pills, and the cost of refining pills each time was not small. The second was that there were many shops like Dafeng Pharmacy, so a reputable alchemy shop would naturally have better business.

"There are many shops opening and closing in Waifang Market every year, and Qingfeng Danpu is one of the more famous ones."

Afterwards, Lu Xuanping used his magic power to ignite the flame, which turned light blue. This was the true fire of the foundation-building cultivator. Only those with fire-attributed spiritual roots could ignite it. The method of using the foundation-building true fire was not particularly difficult. Lu Xuanping had learned it in his family.

However, there is still a difference between the foundation-building true fire and the earth fire. The earth fire does not require the consumption of mana, while the foundation-building true fire must consume mana every moment. Once the cultivator's mana is insufficient, the alchemy will fail, and the power of the earth fire is even more violent.

But there is one advantage of using true fire to refine pills, which is that the control required of the alchemist is reduced. Lu Xuanping now not only has double the mana, but also has a very high quality of mana, and has endless practice, and the speed of mana recovery is also very amazing. There is not much difference between using true fire to refine pills and using ground fire. And it can be maintained for a long time, and it can also save the money of renting the ground fire room and pass it on to customers.

Lu Xuanping decided to refine the [Melting Snow Pill] first. After a night, Lu Xuanping finally finished refining it.

Each time of making [Melting Snow Pill], it would take more than an hour. When Lu Xuanping started the third furnace, he heard some noise outside. It was Lu Rou and Lu Jun going out, but he didn't care.

Judging from yesterday's observation, Lu Rou is smart and clever, so it seems that nothing serious will happen to her, and then she continues to make the elixir with her eyes closed.

Lu Xuanping discovered that he had refined a total of five pills with the last nine ingredients of the [Melting Snow Pill].

[Alchemy Apprentice Lv1 (1062/2000)]

By this calculation, his success rate in alchemy has exceeded half, and he is still very capable. However, among the first-grade elixirs, the [Melting Snow Pill] can only be regarded as an elixir of medium difficulty.

"This is a good thing. It seems that True Fire Alchemy can slightly increase the success rate, but the mana consumption is indeed a bit high.

Only someone like me who recovers quickly can use this method to make pills."

Lu Xuanping only had thirty herbs left. Looking at these herbs, Lu Xuanping thought about it but found that there was no way to make a first-grade elixir, so he had to give up.

Lu Xuanping swept his spiritual sense and found that they were in the main room of the shop, so he left the alchemy room, took out five [Melting Snow Pills], and told Lu Rou.

"Lu Rou, go and put these five [Snow Melting Pills] on the counter and mark the price at forty spirit stones. If anyone wants to buy them, just give them to them. I have put prohibitions on them. Here is the method to remove them for you to learn.

"Yes." Lu Rou excitedly accepted the forbidden technique study manual.

Lu Xuanping roughly calculated that the materials for refining the [Melting Snow Pill] would require about 60 spirit stones. Each time the materials for refining the [Melting Snow Pill] were refined, about 20 spirit stones were needed. The success rate was 50-50, so the price of one piece of material was close to 40 spirit stones, and so on. If he sold it at 40 spirit stones, he would not make any money.

Although I don't make any money and I have put in a lot of effort, I have gained proficiency, and I can still make some money when I become more proficient.

After thinking about it, Lu Xuanping reminded them, "When you promote it to others, you must mention that there is no handling fee."

"yes"

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"Understood."

"Report to me any news about Uncle Jiu."

"I understand." After hearing the two children's words, Lu Xuanping nodded with satisfaction.

Lu Xuanping practiced quietly in his room. He also understood that the reason why he could snatch business was because he and the Lu family were so powerful. Naturally, cultivation was the top priority.

Three days later, suddenly, Lu Jun ran to Lu Xuanping's house in a panic.

"Elder Xuanping. There is a guest who wants to make an elixir."

Lu Xuanping felt the movement outside and slowly ended his practice.

When I went out and heard this, "You said someone wanted to place an order to refine the elixir."

"Yes, Elder Xuanping."

Hearing him call himself Elder Xuanping, Lu Xuanping naturally understood that this was what he had agreed with him before. He could call him brother in normal times, but when there were outsiders around, he had to call him elder.

"Well, take me to see this person."

"yes"

The two men walked into the shop in the front yard. Lu Jun led the way to a table on the left, where a man was sitting with his eyes closed. There were teapots, wine glasses and other items on the table next to him. It seemed that he had been waiting for a long time.

These things were not prepared by Lu Xuanping, but by Lu Rou.

"Elder Lu, you are here." Lu Rou greeted.

Lu Xuan walked over and nodded to Lu Rou before asking the man, "Who is this brother?"

"Greetings, Senior. My last name is Chen Hao, and I am a casual cultivator."

"I came here this time hoping to refine two [Huang Ling Dan]. I wonder how you can customize them."

Lu Xuanping saw that he had already sold three pills of his store's signature product, the [Melting Snow Pills]. Now another person came to his store, and it seemed that the price reduction had a better effect than he had imagined.

Lu Xuanping's face was full of smiles.

"Brother Chen, I don't charge for making pills, and the success rate is one in three. If it fails, I will make up the spiritual stones?"

Hearing this, Chen Hao realized that it was the same as advertised, but he was still a little nervous. After all, these were herbs that he had collected for a long time, and this alchemist looked quite young.

Seeing that the man was a little hesitant, Lu Xuanping quickly added

"Brother Chen, have you seen the sign of my alchemy shop?"

"Is this Qingfeng Danpu? What's going on?"

"I wonder if Brother Chen has ever heard of the name of Alchemist Qing Xiu."
