Immortal Space

  Chapter 182 Alchemy

  The black-robed monk originally thought that Wang Hong would be shocked by his generosity, and he had already made preparations for the response, even the tone and wording of his answer.

  Unexpectedly, after Wang Hong took it, he just glanced at it and counted the quantity, but there was no other reaction.

  This made the black-robed monk feel a little bit disappointed and had some self-doubt. He thought it was a huge amount, and he had prepared enough to prevent the news from leaking out. Maybe it was just that he had never seen the world.

  Wang Hong does alchemy by himself, and every time he has to prepare more than a hundred materials, with these dozens of materials, it is really hard to shock him.

  He just said lightly:

   "There are a total of forty Yangyuan Pill materials, which can produce about 160 Yangyuan Pills. In addition, 30% of the Chengdan needs to be taken as the cost of alchemy."

  Alchemists will take 30% of the alchemy as a reward for alchemy. For example, if there are ten pills, the alchemist will draw three of them.

   This is only the remuneration on the surface. In addition, the alchemist will deduct some pills secretly. How much to deduct depends on the alchemist's skills and character.

   Therefore, a skilled alchemist can still earn a lot of money, and belongs to the high-income group among monks.

  The two sides negotiated the remuneration very easily. After all, Wang Hong's 40% alchemy rate is not bad among second-tier alchemists.

  Some alchemists, even if their alchemy success rate reaches 50% to 60%, they will only report 30% to 40%, and the excess will be swallowed by the alchemist.

  Appointed the next time to come to pick up the elixir, the black-robed monk left in a hurry, and Wang Hong also went back to refine the elixir.

After returning, Wang Hong took out forty parts of the ingredients. He refined the second-level elixir, and he had never used the method of refining multiple ingredients in one batch. The main reason was that he did not have many second-level elixir, which was not enough for him to squander. .

  He wants to try it out this time. He will be in charge of alchemy here in the future. There must be a lot of pills that he needs to refine. It would be a waste of time to refine one by one.

  He decided to start with five copies. In addition, there are more than 200 copies of Yangyuan Pill materials he has accumulated, so he might as well refine all of them.

  In the first batch of five ingredients, only six elixirs came out. He didn't care about the heartache elixir, and started the second batch.

  Anyway, when doing anything, it is inevitable to suffer some losses due to unfamiliarity at the beginning.

  The second batch of five ingredients produced eight grains. After a short rest, he started the third batch of refining.

  One month later, he refined all the Yangyuan pills. In the end, he refined 30 copies in one furnace at the same time, and the success rate barely reached 30%.

  Although alchemy in this way would waste a lot of elixir, it saved him a lot of time.

  Compared with elixir, his time is more valuable. With the time saved, he can practice skills, ponder spells, and learn how to make runes and talismans.

   On the contrary, for other people's extremely precious elixir, he can grow a large amount of it in his space. Some varieties are too many, but they are backlogged in the space, and it is not easy to sell.

  For example, the second-order spiritual fruit he planted first, the white crystal fruit, he planted a lot, but he couldn't eat much, and he didn't dare to sell too much.

  In order not to waste the white crystal fruit, he brewed all of it into second-tier spirit wine. Now that the white crystal fruit has been processed, a large amount of white crystal fruit spirit wine has accumulated in the space.

  White crystal fruit spirit wine is definitely a good thing. It can restore mana and make mana more pure. It is definitely a rare treasure that cannot be found.

  But he can't sell it in a big way, as long as he takes out a hundred catties, it will definitely cause a sensation, but he has thousands of catties of white crystal fruit spirit wine hidden in his space, and the quantity is still increasing.

   Asking him to cut down the white crystal fruit tree, he was reluctant no matter what.

   Today is the time to deliver the elixir. After Wang Hong practiced, he did not do other things. He brewed a pot of spirit tea and drank it slowly.

  He now knows that this tea is called Qiulong tea, and the owner of the Dan Palace, Mei Dian, is still obsessed with it.

   Before I finished the pot of tea, I received a summons, and the monk came to pick up the elixir.

  Wang Hong came to the secret room where he met last time. The monk was still wearing a black robe with a cloak covering his face.

   "I kept fellow daoist waiting for a long time."

  Wang Hong said hello after entering, and then directly took out a few pill bottles and handed them to the black-robed monk.

   "There are a total of 160 pills, and 48 pills are deducted for alchemy costs. I will give you 112 pills. You can count them."

  The black-robed monk took the pill bottle, counted it with his spiritual sense, nodded with great satisfaction, and left.

  After the black-robed monk left, Wang Hong took out five Yangyuan Pills and handed them to Wu Dayong. As a resident alchemist, he had to hand over 10% of the proceeds to the shop.

  Wu Dayong took the pill with a smile, and said with a smile: "Junior Brother Wang is really good at alchemy. The alchemists who were stationed in the store before usually only have a 30% success rate."

   "Thank you, Senior Brother Wu, for taking care of me during this time. I still have two Yangyuan Pills here, please accept them."

  Wang Hong knew that Wu Dayong was reminding him that in fact, a 30% success rate of the pill is also acceptable, so that he can deduct an extra 10% of the pill.

   But he didn't want to detain too much, one is that he doesn't lack these pills.

  The other is that he wants to increase his popularity in alchemy, so that more people will come to him to refine elixirs in the future.

   In this way, he may obtain more rare elixir that he does not have, which is his real purpose.

  But Wu Dayong reminded me that it is still appropriate to express my gratitude.

  Wu Dayong happily took the two pills of Yangyuan. The previous five pills belonged to the sect and had nothing to do with him. These two pills belonged to him personally.

   "Junior Brother Wang, if you have nothing to do during this time, it is best not to go out. You have been practicing alchemy behind closed doors these days, and there are some things you may not know yet."

   Wu Dayong reminded after putting away the pill.

   "Oh? I don't know what it is?" Wang Hong asked with some doubts.

   "It is said that some time ago, several foundation-building monks were intercepted by a group of mysterious forces on their way to Jin'an City, and forced to sign a slave blood contract.

  Speaking of which, the Foundation Establishment cultivator involved was really good, he killed several people abruptly, returned to Jin'an City, and reported the matter.

   Now, the senior management of Jin'an City has conducted an investigation and found that this is not an isolated case. Now the whole city is investigating the monks who signed the slave blood contract.

  If it is found that there is a cultivator who has signed a slave blood contract, he needs to identify who his master is, otherwise he will be regarded as a suspicious object. "

  When Wang Hong heard this, he felt as if he was talking about himself. It turns out that this matter has already caused a lot of trouble.

   "Thank you, Senior Brother Wu, for reminding me that I have nothing to do these days, so I won't go out and cause trouble."

   After Wang Hong and Wu Dayong bid farewell, they returned to their private courtyard.

   Regarding the news he just received, he felt that this matter was extraordinary.
