System reward settlement, Xiao Ou
After a slight embarrassment, Qin Ruqing quickly calmed down. After all, she was thick-skinned. There were not many things that could embarrass her these days. The system was already very powerful.
After the embarrassment, Qin Ruqing touched her chin, and a devilish light flashed in her eyes.
"System, I suddenly think that your special effects are good. So, am I not pretending to be a big shot invisibly?"
[I'm afraid so. ]
Qin Ruqing felt relieved instantly and nodded happily: "Not bad, not bad, after being manipulated by you, as long as this family is not crazy, they will definitely come up to curry favor with us. My Qin family has gained another loyal subordinate small family!"
And this act of currying favor may bypass the Qin family and come to her. This is good. She welcomes all the actions that the fat sheep delivers to her door.
"By the way, what does that spying mean? How can he spy on me?" Qin Ruqing grasped the key to the problem.
[I don't know, it should be that he has a special physique, or has some special detection technique.]
Well, Qin Ruqing touched her chin and kept this in mind. It's not too urgent. Anyway, with the special effect of the system, this person will have a chance to meet her in the future. No hurry.
While talking to the system, Tang Zifeng's small dark room for refining instruments arrived. Qin Ruqing waved at him, "Well, goodbye? Remember to keep an eye on my life magic weapon~"
Tang Zifeng hesitated for a while, and said, "Thank you for today..."
"What's there to thank me for? I tricked a dead otaku like you out, so I have to be responsible for you. By the way, the Qin family has been busy these days, so it's a good time for you to refine the magic weapon. When your batch of magic weapons are ready, I will pick a day with the ancestor to introduce you to the senior management of the Qin family, and then we can discuss cooperation with the Tang family."
Tang Zifeng nodded. Qin Ruqing explained to him that he was asking him to be relieved that the Qin family had not forgotten him.
But Tang Zifeng had never worried about this matter. After Qin Ruqing was able to take him to see the ancestor of the Qin family at will that day, he knew that this person was a little special.
She is special, her status in the Qin family is special, and her personality is even more special.
Tang Zifeng has never seen someone with such a distinct and strange quality, so the look in his eyes when he looked at Qin Ruqing became complicated.
Qin Ruqing didn't care, and waved his hand casually, "Then I'll leave."
Tang Zifeng nodded, and the figure in red walked away briskly.
When the banquet was over, Qin Deming came back and told Qin Ruqing about the situation of the affiliated families today.
He said: "Today, there are two families who are particularly close to our Qin family and meet the requirements you mentioned. Especially the Cheng family, they seem to be overwhelmed by the charm of our Qin family. I see that they really want to be our affiliated family." It's almost to the point where they have to do it.
Seeing them like this, Qin Deming had to agree "reluctantly".
Qin Ruqing laughed secretly in his heart. My father is not much more shameless than me. He is "fallen" by the charm of the Qin family. He is overwhelmed by the system's tacky special effects. However, this is also right. It seems that the people she bumped into today are from the Cheng family.
"Did the Cheng clan leader bring his son today?" Qin Ruqing confirmed it just in case.
"Hey, how did my son know?" Qin Deming wondered.
"Oh, nothing, I just bumped into him." Qin Ruqing knew what was going on.
Qin Deming nodded, but he didn't take it to heart. After thinking for a while, he said, "In a few days, the news will be clear. After signing the contract, report it to the Xianpin Bureau, and the matter will be set in stone."
Qin Deming's tone was a little emotional. The Qin family had turned from its original decline to the current situation step by step, and it was still the period when he was in charge of the family. For this, Qin Deming still felt a little proud in his heart - although he knew that most of the credit should be attributed to his daughter Qingqing.
Three days later, the Qin family officially signed a subordinate contract with the Cheng and Yan families. After the Xianpin Bureau inspected and verified that there was no error, the contract was signed.
Cheng and Yan moved to the Qin family's territory one month later and were protected by the Qin family from then on.
-
In this month, the Qin family developed rapidly.
The Qin's pharmacy was officially divided into three sections, which were implemented in the West Market and were very popular. In addition, a thousand acres of medicinal fields and ten medicinal mountains were opened in the Wangfu Secret Realm. Two affiliated families were recruited. The alchemists of the entire family worked hard to operate the system with high efficiency.
These are the results of the Qin family in recent days. Qin Ruqing felt very satisfied, and she couldn't wait to check the results of the system.
The development of the Qin family during this period should correspond to the branch line of [Stable Industry]. But when Qin Ruqing checked the system page, she found that the progress of this branch line was much slower than she expected, and even a major settlement had not been completed.
"System, the development of the family in recent times has basically been focused on this industrial branch, and I think the results are very encouraging. Why does the branch progress bar seem to have not moved at all, and the settlement progress is still showing [settlement in progress]?" Qin Ruqing asked the system in confusion.
[Because this branch has not yet completed the phased progress, at the current stage, the Qin family's medicine industry still has potential problems. Therefore, the system cannot settle.]
There are potential problems. Qin Ruqing pondered, and after thinking carefully, she could figure out where the problem came from without asking the system.
This reform of the Qin family was planned and promoted by her, and basically all aspects were taken into consideration. However, even if a solution is thought of, it does not mean that this solution can immediately solve the problem.
The Qin family's current problems are still concentrated in two aspects: whether the production of elixirs is sufficient; whether the production of spiritual plants is sufficient.
Yes, the solution was mentioned before, which is to distribute part of the alchemy business to the branch family or the affiliated family. This method is indeed useful, but it is still not useful enough - that is to say, it is not good enough.
There are not many alchemists in the branch family and the affiliated family, and the pressure of alchemy that can be relieved is limited. It is true that the Qin family can train a group of mature alchemists, but it also takes time. The alchemists of the Qin family are still under great pressure.
In addition, the problem with spiritual plants is that the growth cycle is slow. Even if the Qin family has opened up a large number of medicinal fields, it will take some time for the medicinal fields to be opened and the spiritual plants to be planted and mature, and there will be some gaps in the gap in between.
Therefore, we still have to find a way to increase production.
When thinking of this, Qin Ruqing asked: "System, after the industrial branch has a phased breakthrough, it must be able to reward the chance to win a lottery, right?"
She was going to waste this old nose reform. If she didn't give the chance to win a lottery, she would uninstall the system!
As if the system heard what Qin Ruqing was thinking, it finally didn't play Tai Chi with her this time, but said in a positive tone, [Okay. ]
That's about right. Qin Ruqing snorted, and couldn't help but get excited. Although the industrial branch line required some effort, the other branches of the system had made great progress.
First of all, she had a sudden realization before, breaking through two levels in a row, and the branch line of "Excellent Descendants" had been greatly improved. Moreover, this was an epiphany of hers, and it was very valuable, so the system really rewarded her with a chance to win a lottery (not bad.
Then, the family reformed, and after some manipulation by her, she got her father a management position in a subsidiary family, which was a good job with both substance and face. After this, no one in the Qin family dared to look down on the eldest branch, so the branch task of [enhancing the prestige of the clan leader Qin Deming] was soaring!
Because the task progressed greatly, the entire branch also made considerable progress, and the system's rewards this time were very generous.
Points, a chance to win a lottery (woohoo, another one, happy), and even a blue item.
[Small Breaking Realm Pill: can directly improve a small realm, can be used by cultivators below the Foundation Establishment stage. Note: Small Breaking Mirror Pill can be used as a lower-level substitute for the Foundation Establishment Pill to a certain extent, and there is a very small probability that it can trigger the effect of assisting the foundation establishment. ]
Qin Ruqing blinked several times to confirm that he was not mistaken. Small Breaking Mirror Pill! As long as any pill can help improve cultivation, even if it is just to increase the probability, the price and rarity will start to soar.
Otherwise, The noble families would not break their heads for a small foundation-building pill.
Although this small broken mirror pill is not as precious as the foundation-building pill, it can only help cultivators below the foundation-building stage to improve their realm. However, it has a very BUG effect. It can be used as a lower-level substitute for the foundation-building pill to a certain extent, and there is a chance that it can trigger the same effect as the foundation-building pill!
How rare is the foundation-building pill? Compared with it, the small broken mirror pill is simply one level lower, but there is a chance that it can achieve the same effect. Effect, isn't this spending little money to accomplish great things!
The Emperor of Europe was ecstatic when he saw it! Gambling dogs' eyes would also glow green when they saw it.
For Qin Ruqing, this little broken mirror pill came at the right time. There is one thing she has always been thinking about, that is, her father's cultivation.
In this world where strength is supreme, her father is the patriarch, but his strength is not outstanding. This problem is simply fatal! Apart from anything else, he must at least build a foundation.
Now with this little broken mirror pill , someone just gave me a pillow when I was dozing off! Even if Dad didn't trigger the effect of the Foundation Building Pill, this small Broken Mirror Pill would be enough to raise his strength to the top level of Qi Training. By then, his chances of successfully building the foundation in the future would also increase significantly.
This reward was simply sent to Qin Ruqing's heart! She was about to say accept it, but suddenly thought of something and said vigilantly: "System, this small Broken Mirror Pill, does it also need to be materialized?"
[If the host doesn't use it himself, it must be materialized.]
Qin Ruqing raised his lips and spoke quickly: "How do you know I'm not using it myself? The scope of use of this small broken mirror pill is below the foundation building stage. I'm at the sixth level of Qi training, so I can use it!"
The system was a little hesitant: [But, you obviously want to give it to your father.]
Qin Ruqing began to lie with his eyes open: "How do you know I will give it to my father? I'm telling you, don't guess what a beautiful woman is thinking! I want to use it myself! Hurry up and get the reward directly from me, and don't materialize it!"
The system seemed very entangled. Its intelligence judged that the host of this small broken mirror would definitely not use it himself, but logically speaking, the host of this small broken mirror pill is fully qualified to use it. After all, cultivation is the life of a cultivator, and no one dares to say that the host does not want to improve his realm.
Qin Ruqing saw the whiteboard of the system in his mind twitching slightly, as if it could not process such information and was about to crash.
Qin Ruqing slapped the system on the forehead without saying a word, just like slapping an old-fashioned TV with poor signal at home. He relied on slapping to survive, "You are not allowed to crash for me, hurry up and claim the reward, I fully meet the conditions for claiming the reward, if you don't let me claim it I will report you in the backstage, I have found the report button, hurry up!"
The word "report" made the system twitch, and the chaotic data became clear in an instant, [...Don't report, your reward has been credited.]
Qin Ruqing checked the package and saw a gray-brown pill lying quietly inside.
"Very good. System, you are very sensible."
The system did not reply to her, and it went black directly. I don't know if it was angry or scared, or if it was urgently fixing the bug.
Qin Ruqing was in a very good mood after successfully getting a bargain. It didn't matter if the system slipped away, anyway, her tasks were almost settled.
This family reform took her a lot of time, but the rewards were huge!
Two lottery opportunities have been obtained, and there are two that have not yet been obtained - the reward for the ancestor's injury and the reward for the phased progress of the pill industry.
Counting it this way, my God, it seems that the ten consecutive draws are about to be collected! God knows how hard she worked to collect the ten consecutive draws, and how much self-control she had to use to resist the draw!
She has already begun to imagine the wonderful life after ten consecutive payouts: D
After happily counting her rewards, Qin Ruqing sorted out her thoughts and readjusted her next "operation" plan.
First of all, the family's elixir production mission has not been completely completed, and the production capacity of all aspects needs to be improved, and we still need to find a way to do this.
Secondly, the ancestor's injury still needs a piece of ice and fire grass to be completely healed. Although there are Jindan stage monsters guarding the ice and fire grass, it is extremely difficult to obtain, but the Qin family can't just sit and wait for death. If a strong attack doesn't work, can we consider using wits?
Finally, the Qin family must get the Xuanxin Liquid that can help increase the probability of forming an elixir by 20%. This is related to whether the ancestor can form an elixir in one go.
After reviewing the tasks that were about to be completed, Qin Ruqing prioritized them. According to the information provided by Hao Gu, the Xuanxin Liquid is most likely in the small floating space in Xiling. Regardless of whether this information is true or not, Xiling is closed and far away, and it is not an easy matter to go there.
Therefore, the matter about the Xuanxin Liquid should be done last.
At the current stage, we should consider completing the tasks of the elixir industry and discussing with the ancestor how to get the ice and fire herbs.
However, the ancestor seemed to have closed the small gate again after the clan meeting, and it was not convenient to disturb him now, so Qin Ruqing set her sights on the elixir industry.
Improving production capacity... Hehe, in fact, she already had an idea of what to do.
Since manpower can no longer be greatly improved, we need to find a way to improve tools and equipment - it would be great if there was someone who could help improve the alchemy furnaces of the Qin family's alchemists.
The appearance of the alchemy furnace is fixed, with several fire ports and firepower distribution. Therefore, it is very difficult to improve the alchemy equipment, and it requires a very talented alchemist to study it.
What a coincidence, didn't our Qin family "come to our door" some time ago?
Qin Ruqing made a prompt decision and went to pester Tang Zifeng.
Fat sheep, give the kid some wool!
...
Tang Zifeng had a wooden face, veins twitching faintly on his forehead, and he looked at Qin Ruqing gesticulating there expressionlessly.
"Well, it's like this. The alchemy furnace in our house is too old. The fire is unstable, the temperature is unstable, and it has basically no auxiliary effect on the elixir... Then I thought, can the alchemy furnace be improved? I want one that can increase the fire mouth, but the difficulty of controlling the temperature is still the same as before, and the temperature is stable and easy to operate. Oh, it also needs to be able to help the elixir and improve the quality of the elixir..."
Tang Zifeng suddenly interjected coldly, "Wouldn't it be best if it could automatically help people refine the elixir?"
Qin Ruqing paused and exclaimed in surprise, "Is it possible?"
Tang Zifeng pursed his lips and looked at Qin Ruqing without saying a word. Qin Ruqing's shame of always running away from home finally came online for a second (no more!), and then she smiled awkwardly, "It seems a bit too much to help with automatic alchemy, so forget it!"
"So, Tang... Tang the weapon refiner, you are so talented, and you come from a famous weapon refinery family. You should be able to refine the alchemy furnace I just mentioned, right?"
Tang Zifeng said directly: "I can't."
He pushed Qin Ruqing out, stopped when he pushed her to the door, and added, "Then, I have been expelled from the Tang family." So there is no need to use "famous weapon refinery family" to flatter me.
This is also a small response to Qin Ruqing's previous ridicule of him being expelled from home.
Qin Ruqing sighed in her heart. This person is still narrow-minded. But she smiled happily, with a pound of honey hanging from the corners of her mouth. "Oh, we are old acquaintances. I have taken good care of you in the Qin family. It was me who led you to see our ancestor. You rejected me so bluntly. Isn't it a bit bad?"
Tang Zifeng stopped pushing and really stopped pushing. Putting her hand on the door handle, she said seriously: "You led me to see the ancestor, and I also paid you."
What? When did it happen? Why doesn't she remember it?
Tang Zifeng knew that she had completely forgotten about it when he saw her big eyes blinking blankly. He couldn't help but remind her with a stern face, "I know you have those two feeding bracelets."
Ha! It turned out to be that one. Qin Ruqing laughed awkwardly, "You didn't say you were giving it to me, how can it be considered a reward?"
Tang Zifeng had a blank expression on his face, "It's yours on you, so it's naturally a reward."
Hey, this guy is quite logical in robbery.
Qin Ruqing tried her best to hold on to the door frame, and when soft tactics didn't work, she was about to use hard tactics.
"Hey, how come you, a little weapon refiner, don't have any ambition at all? You know that those who can become weapon refiners all have their own pursuits in the way of weapons, and they will spontaneously be interested in those difficult problems that are difficult to overcome. Why don't you react at all when it comes to you? I tell you that your attitude is wrong!"
Let's provoke him first!
Tang Zifeng's eyes blinked like a small fan, and for some reason, this action was particularly serious when he did it. Although his facial expression didn't change much, he seemed more serious. "I am serious about the way of weapons and have my own pursuits. Your request is too rude. It is impossible to refine such an alchemy furnace!"
Qin Ruqing couldn't help but whispered back, "People should dare to think and do, and I didn't ask for an alchemy furnace that can refine pills automatically..."
Tang Zifeng didn't say anything and started pushing the door again.
"Hey, hey, hey, I was wrong, I was wrong... Master Tang, I came to you because I trust you, and this matter has something to do with you, you know, I didn't come to you for no reason!"
Tang Zifeng paused and pushed the door less hard. Qin Ruqing felt him looking at her suspiciously through the door frame. She
snorted in her heart. She knew it! The usual methods won't work against someone like Tang Zifeng, who has a weird way of thinking and his own logic.
--You have to use Tang Zifeng's logic to defeat Tang Zifeng!
Qin Ruqing suddenly became serious and said, "I know you came to the Qin family to seek equal cooperation. The Qin family also agreed to tailor-make elixirs for your family that can speed up the speed of cultivation. You are practicing alchemy, so you should know that something that can speed up the speed of cultivation is already very amazing, right? It's hard to find even the raw materials for making such elixirs - what a coincidence, the Qin family has them! There is hope for your elixir!"
Tang Zifeng stopped pushing the door, and his warm gaze fell on Qin Ruqing's face, "What does this have to do with whether I want to help improve the alchemy furnace?"
Qin Ruqing snorted, "It matters a lot, because I am the only one who can provide you with that raw material!"
Qin Ruqing knew that he didn't understand, so he pulled out the hidden The jade pendant in the collar, "Look, what is this?"
Tang Zifeng's gaze finally shifted from Qin Ruqing's face to the pendant in her hand. He concentrated on it for a while and subconsciously said, "Ten Thousand Years of Cold Mysterious Ice... No, that spiritual aura hidden in the Cold Mysterious Ice, chalcedony?"
A question mark seemed to appear on Tang Zifeng's expressionless handsome face, "How can these two completely unrelated things be integrated together?"
Qin Ruqing stuffed the jade pendant back into her collar and said casually, "Don't worry about it. Since you can recognize the Ten Thousand Years of Cold Mysterious Ice, you should know its function, to assist in cultivation and speed up cultivation - hehe, I have a whole ice cave for such Cold Mysterious Ice!"
Tang Zifeng was stunned.
Qin Ruqing saw his expression and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up, "And the ownership of this ice cave is in my hands. Even the Qin family has to exchange spirit stones with me if they want to use the products in this ice cave. So, do you understand? The key to the elixir you want to make is me! I control the raw materials. If I don't agree, no one can do anything to me!"
"So, the person you should please the most is me." Qin Ruqing smiled and pointed at himself.
Tang Zifeng frowned and vaguely understood Qin Ruqing's plan, "You want to threaten me with this?"
"Hey~" Qin Ruqing shook his head, "How can it be called a threat? I am telling you the facts seriously. Let me explain it to you. Just like when you first came to the Qin family, no one except me could take you to see the ancestor. You had to agree to my conditions before you could see the ancestor. And this time is the same. The raw materials of the elixir you want to refine are in my hands. If you want to cooperate with the Qin family, you still have to agree to my conditions first before the cooperation can be achieved. . "
This logical relationship is a bit confusing, but Tang Zifeng was obviously not confused by her, and continued with a frown: "But, when I discussed cooperation with the Qin family before, I also paid a price. I agreed to help the Qin family refine two kinds of feeding bracelets. According to what you said, then my previous feeding bracelets do not need to be refined, and I only need to meet your conditions?"
Normal and equal cooperation is one-to-one, and now Qin Ruqing obviously wants him to be one-to-two. Tang Zifeng quickly turned around this logical relationship and naturally refused.
Frog, this person is not easy to fool. Fortunately, I have a clever plan!
Qin Ruqing remained calm and said with his hands behind his back, "That's true, but are you sure you don't want to refine the feeding bracelet? Originally, if you only agreed to help me improve the alchemy furnace, you could get the elixir refined by the Qin family and the cold and mysterious ice I provided to you... You are a master of refining weapons, and with this cold and mysterious ice in your hands, you should be able to refine many spiritual weapons with enhanced effects, and then use it to negotiate with the Tang family. Oh, that's one more bargaining chip! It's a pity that you don't want it... If you don't want it, forget it."
Qin Ruqing's tone was sad and regretful, with an expression that said, "I gave you 100 million for free but you didn't want it, it really hurts my heart."
This expression really made people's brains ache. Tang Zifeng turned his head away, but his heart was caught in an unprecedented struggle between heaven and man.
She was actually willing to provide him with Han Xuan Bing for refining a spiritual weapon!
You know, Han Xuan Bing is a top-quality material for refining weapons, and it is hard to come by! Moreover, Tang Zifeng's good memory reminded him of what Qin Ruqing had said when describing the requirements of her own spiritual weapon, "You should look for the level of 100,000-year-old Han Xuan Bing." At that time, he was still wondering why she used 100,000-year-old Han Xuan Bing as an example. Now it seems that she controls the Han Xuan Bing Cave in her hand. If that ice cave is fully formed, there may really be 100,000-year-old Han Xuan Ice.
The Qin family is just an entry-level family, why is her wealth so rich.
He was still struggling with this box, and Qin Ruqing had already shaken his head, sighed, and was about to leave, "Okay, since you don't agree, I naturally won't force it. That's it, I'm leaving." After saying that, he sighed heavily again.
"Come back!" Tang Zifeng held his forehead, gritted his teeth, and said with a reluctant but inexplicably willing tone, "I promise you."
Tang Zifeng went through the logic carefully and found that following Qin Ruqing's request was the way to maximize the benefits. Although he didn't want to see this person's smug face, but that was the fact.
She seemed to see through him. In this way, he could only be led by her nose.
Qin Ruqing immediately smiled, "Oh, Master Tang, isn't that right! This is what a smart person would do!"
Qin Ruqing enthusiastically pulled him out, and this time, Tang Zifeng did not refuse.
He took a few steps forward awkwardly, and suddenly said with a stern face: "Just this time, don't do it again."
Qin Ruqing agreed very readily, "Okay, okay, don't do it again, it makes me sound like I have something like the Hanxuan Ice Cave to tempt you..."
Tang Zifeng heard it and thought it was true. Can something like the Hanxuan Ice Cave appear just by saying it? She must have had an extra opportunity to get it, so she couldn't come up with a second thing that could tempt him.
So he walked forward safely.
