Chapter 804: Suspected Fourth Grade
When Zhou You visited Lian's home, he took away dozens of stunning dancers at a time, which further confirmed his reputation as a lustful man.

Of course, it is not ruled out that some people deliberately spread propaganda to make people mistakenly believe that "Zhou Daqian" has character defects, is not capable of important tasks, and is unlikely to pose a threat.

But many people are also concerned about the deeper meaning behind this matter.

"Have you prepared the prescription and ingredients?"

In the Lian family mansion, in a temple dedicated to the ancestor of medicine, the enshrined pharmacist asked Lian Feihong directly.

His attitude towards the eldest son of the Lian family was no different from that of a street vendor. He used no honorifics and his tone was very stiff.

However, Lian Feihong was used to it and answered respectfully, "They have all been delivered to the Tianzhu Mountain Villa."

"Tianzhu Mountain? Wasn't it originally a place for Zhou Daqian to keep his mistress? Why is it used to make medicine?"

After Yu Fu'er gave birth to Zhou Pan, she was secretly sent to the Tianzhu Mountain Villa. This matter was kept secret from the outside world, but it was not a secret at all to a noble family like the Lian family.

Lian Feihong quickly replied, "After Zhou Daqian brought his mistress back home, he gave the villa and the Tianzhu Mountain to the pharmacist Ku Tang as a place to build a medicine house and start a fire."

"Well, Tianzhu Mountain is beautiful, but there are no medicinal fields with natural treasures. Only the pharmacists from the countryside regard them as treasures!"

Xiuzhi, the third-grade great pharmacist and one of the direct disciples of Wuwei Pharmacist, disagreed.

He came to the Lian family to serve as a pharmacist, and the gift he received was a famous mountain with a medicine garden.

What is a medicine garden? A place that has three or more kinds of natural treasures can be called a medicine garden.

The internal environment of the medicine garden circulates, allowing a variety of natural treasures to promote each other's growth, making it the best among the treasure lands.

Lian Feihong smiled awkwardly but did not agree. After all, great pharmacists could look down on each other's comments, but he was different. If he spoke rashly, he would most likely anger the other party.

"You go and pay attention!"

Xiuzhi thought for a moment, raised his hand and said, "Keep an eye on it and make sure to find out what rank Zhou Daqian's personal guard 'Ku Tang' is!"

"Well, I just sent it in ten days ago, so it may take several months to get the results."

Lian Feihong calculated the time and said.

Xiu Zhi glared and said, "That's easy to say. Even for a third-grade medicine like the Bu Hua Dan, it takes me half a year to refine it. How can he see the effect in just a few months!"

Knowing that he had said something wrong, Lian Feihong quickly corrected himself, "It was my mistake, it was my mistake!"

Suddenly, a strong guard came over quickly, "Sir, Zhou Daqian wants to see you!"

"Master Pharmacist, maybe there is something missing. I will go see him!"

Lian Feihong bowed to Xiuzhi, but Xiuzhi didn't care and reminded him, "Meet all your requests and don't give him a reason to fail."

What this means is that all variables must be kept stable to ensure the true level of the 'bitter soup' is revealed.

"Brother Daqian, it's been a while!"

Lian Feihong was very enthusiastic when meeting them and started to greet them with a bow.

"It's only been ten days, why is the prince so enthusiastic?"

"Ahem, it feels like a long time since we last met. I miss my brother Daqian so much!"

Zhou You thought that your trash talk was quite good, and took out two jade bottles from his sleeves, "Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission. This is Bu Hua Dan, and this is Liu Xin Dan."

"..."

Lian Feihong was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "So fast, are you using the inventory to make up for the problem?"

"Whether it is true or not, the prince will know it at a glance!"

The smell of the stock and the ready-made medicine is different. The former is like aged wine, while the latter has a trace of residual fire from the medicine furnace. Lian Feihong opened the jade bottle, first looked at the color and then smelled the medicine. Countless thoughts were swirling in his mind, and he was sure that it was indeed Bu Hua Dan and Liu Xin Dan, and it was not a stored finished product, but was just refined not long ago.

"Brother Daqian, wait a moment. I don't know much about this. I'll go find someone to help me."

Lian Feihong said politely, "Come here, serve some refreshments and wine, and call my singing and dancing troupe over as well!"

Zhou You hurriedly stopped them, "The first two are fine, but forget about the singing and dancing troupe. I just can't handle it!"

That's right. He has been concentrating on refining medicine during this period and even neglected his family. How could he have the time to deal with those little goblins?
In the back hall separated by three doors, Xiuzhi held two large pills in his palms with a solemn expression. He used his unique method to test the ingredients and medicinal power of the pills. After a long time, he let out a long sigh.

"They were all refined in the past few days, and..."

Xiuzhi glanced at Lian Feihong and revealed a secret, "It was made using the herbs you provided."

You can even see this, is there some secret technique?
Lian Feihong suppressed his curiosity and asked, "Master Pharmacist, can you determine that the bitter soup pharmacist is a third-grade master pharmacist?"

"The Bu Hua Dan is a third-grade healing elixir. He refined it in less than ten days. If this is only a third-grade elixir, then what am I?"

Xiuzhi said this with a gloomy face and a hostile tone.

Lian Feihong was silent. He was surprised and envious. Even though Zhou Daqian was Zhou Nanwang's beloved adopted son, in the future he could at most inherit the Western Sect, which was half of the Zhou family. This was far less than him inheriting the Lian family's business.

However, Zhou Daqian was able to recruit a great pharmacist of at least the third rank as his personal guard.

As for personal guards, that would involve the master-servant contract, and the hierarchy would be clear at a glance.

But he could only be respectful to the third-grade great pharmacist Xiuzhi, even more polite than he treated his own father.

"If that's the case, there's something fishy about Biluodan. He's making excuses to shirk responsibility, obviously not wanting to reveal his true realm!"

Xiuzhi thought for a moment and said, "You should test him again. You must let him accept the refining of Biluodan."

"But Biluodan is a fourth-grade detoxification pill, and even an ordinary fourth-grade pharmacist cannot refine it!"

Lian Feihong thought it was too dangerous to test this elixir.

Xiuzhi glanced at him and said, "Don't I know? Even I haven't succeeded in refining this Biluodan. I want to see what grade this bitter soup is."

The bitter soup pharmacist from the countryside whom he looked down upon was very likely to be more skilled than him, which made Xiuzhi very unhappy.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Well, add another kind of grass bone pill."

Caogudan, a fourth-grade healing elixir, is one of the difficulties Xiuzhi is currently working on.

Biluodan and Caogudan were the greatest temptations he could offer.

Xiuzhi followed Wuwei Pharmacist to learn how to make medicine. At each stage, he could only get the corresponding prescriptions and techniques. He was a third-grade great pharmacist, and the advanced prescriptions he mastered were only at the fourth grade level.

If the bitter soup could even make these two powerful medicines, he would admit defeat.

"what?"

Zhou You drank more than a dozen kinds of tea in the front hall, had several rounds of banquets, and drank up the hundreds of fine wines in Lian Feihong's collection.

During this time, he left the table to change his clothes, wash his face and hands several times, and then returned to the table.

A few hours later, Lian Feihong came back and gave a positive answer, "These two kinds of medicine are really great, and the refining techniques are extremely sophisticated."

"That's good. I have fulfilled my mission."

Before Zhou You could finish his words, Lian Feihong held the back of his hand and said, "Wait a minute, I have another request..."
