Xu Yue grabbed a few soul-cultivating pills, checked their quality, and looked at Su Mu with a complicated look.
"I didn't expect that you would improve it."
Although she had guessed it long ago, she was still shocked when she saw it become a fact.
This is a production line! Even if it is a primary one, its complexity and sophistication are far beyond the reach of single magical instruments of the same level.
But Su Mu still succeeded in improving it!
Xu Yue was not clear about the performance and data. But based on the spiritual pills produced, she was sure that this primary pill production line had undergone earth-shaking changes after Su Mu's improvement!
At least in terms of quality control, it is perfect and better than the most advanced primary medicine production line on the market!
And all of this was improved by Sumu based on an old production line!
The technology used in that old production line, although not eliminated, has long been outdated. Improving it to be better than the most advanced primary pill production line on the market... The difficulty is higher than directly building a primary pill production line.
Su Mu laughed: "It's all thanks to Teacher and Ouyang. If it weren't for your good skills, this primary pill production line would not have been improved."
This is the truth. If it weren't for the help of Xu Yue and Toad, with his level of cultivation, even if he had mastered all the knowledge of the perfect version of the primary pill production line, he would be limited by his strength and unable to use it.
Therefore, he can only be a king of talking nonsense.
Xu Yue shook her head. She didn’t think so.
She was self-aware and knew that she and Toad were just tools who obeyed Su Mu's orders throughout the process.
If it weren't for Su Mu's improvement plans, no matter how skilled she and Toad were, they would not be able to improve this production line!
Sumu is the key.
However, Xu Yue was still very pleased with Su Mu's flattery. She smiled and shook her head and said, "You are just too modest!"
As the master and the apprentice were extolling their business interests to each other, Toad also came to his senses from his shock.
It dropped the spiritual pill in its hand, turned around, and asked Su Mu excitedly: "Boss, how did you do this? Can you teach me?"
Although it had seen the modification plans that Sumu had just made for each component, it did not understand why they had to be modified in that way.
If it could see clearly, it would not have always been pessimistic about Su Mu, and finally got slapped in the face.
Toad is a studious monster, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to pass the intermediate weapon repairer qualification exam through self-study, and he wouldn't have always had a book in his hand.
It is not pretending, but is really reading and learning all the time.
Toad thought very clearly. As a spirit, his intelligence develops slower than humans, which means he has a slow start. If he doesn't study hard, how can he make up for the gap?
"Do you want to learn?" Su Mu asked.
Toad nodded repeatedly and bowed deeply to Su Mu: "Please teach me, boss...teacher!"
He even changed his name, which shows that he is a bold person.
Su Mu did not rush to agree, but said: "First, you should think about the change plans I made on your own. Think carefully about why you need to change it this way and what the connection is between each change. See how much you can figure out. At the same time, write down the questions you don't understand. Next time I come, show me your gains and questions."
He wanted to test the toad to see its learning ability and comprehension.
If it is okay, you can teach it the relevant knowledge and skills and train it to be a qualified tool.
In the future, if this production line needs inspection and maintenance, or if an additional primary pill production line is to be built, all can be handed over to Toad, and I only need to talk.
This is the boring life of a boss!
Anyway, in the contract signed by both parties, there are clear clauses stipulating that Toad cannot disclose what he sees, hears, and learns here!
The power of the contract will always restrain Toad, so Su Mu doesn't have to worry about leaks at all.
Of course, if Toad’s understanding and learning ability are not good enough, then forget it.
Su Mu didn't have the extra time and energy to slowly train the toad. If it was a fox spirit or a jade rabbit spirit, it would be fine, it would be a bit fun to train it. Training a toad spirit... how heavy it would be!
The toad also knew that this was a test from Su Mu, so he accepted it without hesitation, patted his belly, and made a promise, "Gugua, Gugua," saying that he would not let his boss down.
"Try hard, young man."
Su Mu cheered for Toad, and left the rest of his sentence unsaid: "Strive to become a qualified tool man!"
The toad didn't know this, and thought Su Mu was really cheering for it. It was so moved that it almost swore an oath to the heavens and the earth. Although it was a monster, it knew that oaths should not be made lightly. What if it couldn't do what it said? Wouldn't it be miserable? It would be its own fault.
But Toad was still a little confused: You said I have lived for a hundred years and am no longer a teenager, so why does the boss still call me a teenager?
How could it know that Su Mu was just saying it casually?
Besides, judging from its appearance, Su Mu would not have been able to tell unless it told him that it was over a hundred years old!
But Toad felt that things were not that simple and there might be a deeper meaning behind it.
It started to think and ponder.
I understand! My boss wants me to keep a young heart just because I am not young anymore!
Because a young man is like the rising sun, a young tiger, a knight… He is determined to forge ahead and is full of energy! He called me a young man because he hoped that I could be as energetic as a young man!
Although the boss's words consisted of only five words, they reflected his appreciation for me and his expectations for me!
…
This reading comprehension ability is perfect! He analyzed the deep meaning that even the original author didn't know!
Toad was so moved by his own speculation that he almost cried: "I didn't expect the boss to have such high expectations of me. I must work hard and not let the boss down."
Su Mu was confused.
I just told you to work hard, why are you so moved? What on earth did you imagine?
He didn't know how to ask, so he could only laugh dryly and said, "It's good that you understand!"
Toad nodded quickly and said, "I understand. I understand the boss's painstaking efforts."
But I don’t understand! Su Mu complained in his heart.
The factory building was taken over and the primary medicine production line was improved. Sumu decided not to stay here for long and prepared to go back to make other preparations.
Before leaving, he glanced at the group of lynx construction teams that were working hard with their butts sticking out, and said to Toad, "Ouyang, you have to keep an eye on these red-braised pork... ahem, these lynx, let them work well and don't try to take over the production line."
Toad nodded and bowed: "Don't worry, boss, I know what to do."
Su Mu added: "Also, keep a close eye on the inside and outside of the factory. No outsiders can come in without my permission!"
"clear."
The toad slapped its belly again, making a gurgling sound.
"My ears are very sharp. As long as something approaches, whether it is a person or something else, it will not escape my monitoring. I will definitely guard this place for you, boss, and make sure not even a fly can fly in!"
Just as he finished speaking, he saw a fly buzzing past him.
The toad opened its mouth and its tongue shot out like lightning, instantly grabbing the fly into its mouth.
Well, the flies are gone...
Su Mu was so upset that he warned, "If it's a human, don't eat him like this."
The toad felt aggrieved: "Boss, look at what you said. I am a spirit, not a monster. I eat the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and take elixirs, but I don't eat people! Even eating flies and mosquitoes is just a racial characteristic of my race."
"That's good." Su Mu nodded.
Although both monsters and demons are formed through cultivation from various animals and plants, there are still many differences between them in essence.
Spirits are somewhat similar to lawful good, and at the very least neutral good. Monsters are mostly chaotic evil, or neutral evil...
There is also a simpler way of classification: those who can coexist peacefully with humans and are willing to cooperate with humans are spirits; those who always think about eating and harming people are monsters!
To put it bluntly, it is the difference between good and evil! If a person does evil, he will also fall into the path of demons and become a demon!
"I'll leave this to you, we'll withdraw first... By the way, do you have WeChat or QQ? Add one." Su Mu took out his mobile phone and asked.
"Uh, no." Toad was a little embarrassed.
"No?" Su Mu was shocked. In this world, is there still someone who doesn't have QQ or WeChat?
"I don't play those things. I only use my phone to make and receive calls." The toad opened its mouth and rolled out a mobile phone with its tongue. It turned out to be an old phone, and it usually keeps the phone in its stomach... It seems that the waterproof and anti-corrosion functions are very good.
Considering that Toad is over a hundred years old, it is reasonable for him to use a mobile phone for the elderly.
Su Mu had no choice but to say, "Then remember the phone number first, but you should also get a better phone and learn how to surf the Internet. You can also learn a lot of knowledge on the Internet."
Toad nodded repeatedly, and while exchanging phone numbers with Su Mu, he said, "Yes, yes, the boss is right. I will change to another one later. After I apply for QQ and WeChat, I will report to the boss."
After finishing the job, it was Xu Yue who rode the flying sword and sent Su Mu back home.
"Teacher, come in and have a cup of tea?" Su Mu invited after putting down his sword.
"No, I have to get back to work."
Xu Yue declined Su Mu's invitation.
Although she was very interested in the Snow Bud Ginseng Tea brewed at Su Mu's house, she still controlled her appetite.
But before leaving, she reminded him, "Starting tomorrow, after you finish your regular classes, come to the laboratory building to find me. I will teach you some recipes that are not recorded in the books, as well as some spells needed in the medicine major."
Is the spiritual mentor finally going to start fulfilling his duties?
Su Mu was very happy. He took a deep breath and bowed: "Thank you, teacher."
