"Well, you know, you should be quite familiar with my bad disciple. I've also heard him talk about you and how you've helped him a lot, so that's why I wanted to work with you."
Gu Yuan in the black robe said lightly.
"Ah? Is that so? It's truly an honor for this junior!"
A look of ecstasy appeared on the Third Master's face. He didn't expect that this big boss came to ask for cooperation with him because of Gu Yuan.
"I really didn't misjudge that kid! I really have to thank him this time!" The Third Master thought secretly in his heart.
"Haha, that guy said you helped him a lot, so I took the initiative to ask for cooperation. Otherwise, to be frank, at your level, I definitely won't cooperate with you!"
When Gu Yuan said this, he deliberately revealed a sense of arrogance, but it was not too excessive so as not to make people feel uncomfortable.
When the Third Master heard this, the smile on his face widened.
This big shot was so direct, indicating that he didn't consider himself an outsider at all. So he hurriedly said, "Senior, you're right! Alchemists, especially high-level alchemists, are the ones we look up to. It's a great honor for our Blood Chamber of Commerce that you've condescended to cooperate with us! Please feel free to ask for it. As long as we can do it, even if it means going through fire and water, our Blood Chamber of Commerce will do it for you!"
The Third Master patted his chest excitedly and said proudly.
"Haha, it's not that serious. Since you said so, I'll just order it directly."
Gu Yuan, who was wearing a black robe, smiled and said, "But before that, I have a question for you."
The Third Master was taken aback and quickly asked, "Senior, if you have any questions, please speak up!"
After pondering for a while, Gu Yuan suddenly asked, "Does your Blood Merchants have their own alchemist?"
"Um... yes, there is, but there is only one third-grade alchemist, and there are no higher ones. After all, it is too difficult to train high-level alchemists, and the physical requirements are quite special."
The Third Master said with a wry smile.
Gu Yuan nodded. It was a well-known fact that it was difficult to train alchemists.
"I wonder what the senior wants to know by asking this?" asked the Third Master.
Gu Yuan shook his head and said calmly, "Nothing, I just wanted to ask if your Chamber of Commerce needs an alchemist."
The Third Master opened his mouth, his face quickly flushed, and he asked in shock: "Senior...you...you want it?"
"My inferior disciple, Gu Yuan, is already a fourth-grade alchemist. If you don't mind, I can have him be a guest at your auction house."
"hiss!"
The Third Master took a deep breath and said, "Come to our auction house as a guest?"
"Why? No?"
"No, no, no! Okay, okay, absolutely!"
The Third Master's face flushed red. This news was such a huge shock to him!
Although he originally thought that this senior was coming, he turned around and thought that he was too naive. Such an existence would be highly respected even if he went to the top forces. How could he condescend to come here?
However, even so, even a fourth-grade alchemist is what his Blood Chamber of Commerce has always dreamed of!
"My Blood Merchant Guild has everything except alchemists. I wonder what requirements you have, Senior? Could you please elaborate?"
The Third Master looked at the black-robed man in front of him and said seriously.
"Well, my conditions are simple. My poor disciple needs a lot of materials to practice. I want him to be your guest alchemist. You are responsible for providing the necessary materials. The pills he successfully refines belong to you. We don't want anything!"
"Ah? What did you say, senior?" The Third Master widened his eyes, as if he couldn't believe his ears.
"I said that if you provide the materials to my apprentice, all the pills he refines will belong to you, and my apprentice's success rate can be maintained at around 50%. As you know, alchemy is risky. His skills are not good now, and the success rate of a fourth-grade pill is only 50%. As for a third-grade pill, it's about 60%."
Gu Yuan, who was wearing a black robe, estimated it and then said a number.
"Fifty... fifty percent?"
The Third Master stared at the black-robed man in front of him with wide eyes and was speechless for a moment.
"Holy crap? What's wrong? Is 50% too low? Damn it, I should have said higher!"
Looking at the reaction of the Third Master, Gu Yuan suddenly felt a little flustered and secretly blamed himself in his heart.
"Ahem, well, fifty percent is a bit low, but Gu Yuan's talent isn't that high. Of course, if you're willing, as long as you provide the materials, I can also promise to help you refine two sixth-grade pills for free!"
Anyway, with the system in place, as long as there are enough materials, Gu Yuan will be a top-level alchemist and can ignore anyone.
The Third Master was completely shocked by Gu Yuan's words.
"Um?"
Gu Yuan frowned. Wasn't that enough? Could it be that his offer wasn't attractive enough? Giving all the refined pills to the Blood Chamber of Commerce wasn't enough to impress them?
"What's wrong? Is there any problem? If you think it's not possible, you can just say it directly. I don't like to force people. After all, if we can't cooperate today, it doesn't mean we can't cooperate in the future, right?" Gu Yuan sighed and said.
"No no no! No, senpai!"
The Third Master panicked and said quickly, "Please wait a moment while I process this shocking news! Senior, the conditions you mentioned are really...really too favorable for us! We can't let you suffer any loss!"
The Third Master's face was as red as a monkey's butt, which was enough to prove how excited he was at the moment.
"Hmm? Too good for you?"
"Yes! Senior, you've given our auction house an extra alchemist! And a fourth-grade alchemist at that! Moreover, you just said that Gu Yuan has a 50% success rate in making pills? Are you sure about that?"
"Of course! Although my disciple is dull, I will teach him well." Gu Yuan said lightly.
"No! This... this is not just dull talent! This is clearly extremely talented! I said that Gu Yuan was a genius. I liked him from the very beginning when I met him. I never thought he would be such a genius!"
The Third Master rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "A 50% success rate! Such a success rate is actually considered dull in the words of the senior. I really don't know what to say! You know, the success rate of the third-grade alchemists in our Chamber of Commerce is only about 30%! And Gu Yuan, who you said was dull, actually has a success rate of 50%! And he even refined a fourth-grade pill. This... This is simply shocking!"
"Hahaha, is that so? It seems that my requirements are too high! How about the conditions I proposed, Third Boss?" Gu Yuan asked lightly.
"I agree!" The Third Master nodded happily.
