The First Saint of Dan Dao
Chapter 9: Smell the scent and identify the medicine
When Tang Yan announced the price, there was a brief silence in the store.
Everyone looked at Tang Yan. This kid had been extremely frivolous from the beginning. I wonder which second-generation ancestor came to Miao Dan Fang to cause trouble! However, Miao Dan Fang had a respected status and extraordinary strength. This playboy might have hit a wall.
Three thousand taels of silver... When Tang Yan said this price, Ge Ming thought he was hallucinating.
A feeling of a cat being played by a mouse came over Ge Ming, and he almost went berserk. He slammed the table and shouted, "Boy, what do you think my Miaodanfang is? How dare you run wild here!"
"Master Ge, what do you mean?" Tang Yan looked at Ge Meng in fear: "Don't scare me, I will pay you back if you ask for a high price. Why are you acting so wildly here?"
"A second-grade elixir, can you buy it with three thousand taels of silver? Such a low price is an insult to the elixirs sold by my Miao Dan Fang. If you don't give me a reasonable explanation today, I'm afraid that the door of this Miao Dan Fang will not be so easy to open!"
Hearing Ge Ming's threatening words, Tang Yan sneered: "Master Ge, this elixir must have come from an elixir furnace, right?"
"I have said before that they were just refined not long ago."
"What I mean is, this alchemy furnace only produced these three usable pills!" Tang Yan said lightly.
Master Ge, who was originally full of anger, narrowed his pupils when he heard Tang Yan's words, and his heart was filled with disbelief.
The place where I was refining the elixir was absolutely closed, and I was alone, so how could this young man know about it? After thinking about it, the only interaction between me and this young man was a few words of conversation, and this young man sniffed the mouth of the bottle.
Could it be that, by smelling the mouth of the bottle, one could tell that one had refined a furnace of useless pills and only saved three?
Suppressing this ridiculous thought in his mind, Ge Ming pretended to be calm and said, "Isn't it normal for one furnace to produce three second-grade middle-grade pills? Do you think that second-grade middle-grade pills are sugar beans that can be easily refined?"
"The aroma of the pill is too strong, mixed with a little bit of burnt smell. It is obviously the last step of the pill making process, and the fire was slow to stop. There are two choices at this time. One is to continue making the pill, but there is a 99% chance that it will fail. The other way is to discard some materials and protect the pill. In this way, the number of pills will be reduced, and the efficacy will also be affected due to uneven heating. Master Ge chose the second option."
"It is widely rumored that Master Ge is a high-grade second-class alchemist, such a noble identity. If I buy this kind of elixir for 100,000 taels of silver, Master Ge will definitely feel uneasy because he is kind-hearted, and it may become a mental obstacle for his future practice of alchemy. It would be better for me to just offer a low price!" Tang Yan spoke eloquently and with reason.
Everyone around him felt like they were in a dream, not knowing whether it was true or not. How could this kid guess so many things just by relying on his sense of smell?
Ge Ming's heart was already in turmoil, for no other reason than that the guess of the young man in front of him was not wrong at all!
Seeing Tang Yan's confident look, Ge Ming's heart moved, and he asked tentatively: "I am already a second-level high-grade alchemist. How could I make a mistake in controlling the fire when refining a mid-grade elixir?"
"Normally, Master Ge would be able to easily refine a mid-grade elixir. There are only two possible reasons for the failure. The first is that Master Ge is not in good health and cannot concentrate on refining the elixir. The second is that there is a problem with the elixir furnace."
"Master Ge is in good condition now, so I guess there must be something wrong with the alchemy furnace. Master Ge must have replaced the alchemy furnace with a new one recently, right?" After saying that, Tang Yan kept silent.
At this moment, Ge Ming's eyes were already dull. He asked a question casually, but the boy guessed it right again? He was sure that no one could spy on him while he was refining the medicine.
I replaced the alchemy cauldron last night, and even the shop assistants didn't know about it.
This boy, who was so thoughtful and capable, actually had his Dantian destroyed? Wait, his Dantian was destroyed, could it be that this boy wanted to ask for a pill to repair his Dantian?
According to his own experience, the elixir that can restore the damaged Dantian must be at least level 6. Moreover, this type of elixir is relatively rare and extremely difficult to refine. Its value is probably comparable to that of level 7 elixir.
I’m afraid there isn’t a sixth-grade alchemist in the entire Miaodanfang?
This young man's wish is destined to fail.
No wonder I didn’t feel the fluctuation of true energy from this young man.
"My friend, you have a keen eye, and I admire you. I will give you these three pills without charging a penny. Just consider it as a good deed." Ge Ming sighed and handed the porcelain bottle to Tang Yan again.
The people around looked at the porcelain bottle with eager eyes. This young man, with just a few simple words, could get three second-grade middle-grade pills for free?
"In that case, thank you, Mr. Ge." Tang Yan bowed to express his gratitude and happily put the porcelain bottle into his arms.
"My friend, you came here this time because I guess you want the elixir to repair your dantian. I'm really sorry, but I'm afraid it's hard to find." Ge Ming said with a wry smile.
Tang Yan was stunned after hearing this, then smiled and said, "Mr. Ge, I came here for another reason. I want to discuss a business deal."
"Oh?" Ge Ming looked at Tang Yan in confusion, thinking that this boy was extraordinary and that he was not a small businessman. He immediately extended his hand and said, "Please let the cabinet have a talk."
Letting Xiao Cui wait outside, Tang Yan and Ge Ming walked into the house one after the other.
When they arrived at a room inside, a waiter brought tea to them. Ge Ming smiled and asked, "I don't know your name yet, little brother."
"Boy Tang Yan."
Ge Ming was stunned after hearing this. Tang Yan? Isn't that the famous playboy of the Tang family? Then he thought about it. There are so many people in the world, and there are still only a few with the same name and surname? He should be a young master from another family. He smiled and said, "I wonder what business you want to discuss with me, little brother Tang?"
"I'd like to borrow the alchemy furnace." Tang Yan directly stated his purpose.
"Borrow the alchemy furnace? How to borrow it?" Ge Ming became more and more curious.
"I'll borrow the alchemy furnace for two hours. I can refine the medicine inside the Miao Danfang without moving the furnace. I need to refine a batch of elixirs, and I hope Mr. Ge can be flexible."
After a long pause, Ge Mingcai said, "Alchemy requires soul power, perception, and true energy. Your Dantian is destroyed, so even if you have an alchemy furnace, it's probably useless."
"Don't worry about that. The elixirs I refine are not of high grade, and the requirements for my own conditions are not that high either."
"Two hours..." Ge Ming held his chin and thought for a while, then made a decision: "I can agree to this, but since this is a business, what benefits can my Miaodanfang get?"
Tang Yan quickly calculated in his mind that this time he would refine a first-grade intermediate-grade Chuling Pill, which was milder and easier to absorb than the Qi Condensation Pill. Among the first-grade pills, there was probably no other one more suitable for Yuan-level warriors than the Chuling Pill.
But what should I use as a reward? Should I use the Chuling Pill? If I take out this medicine, will Miaodanfang covet my recipe?
He raised his head suddenly, and found a faint red light in Ge Ming's eyes. Tang Yan frowned, he was very familiar with this red light, and instantly had an idea in his mind: "After the alchemy is finished, I will give it to you. If Mr. Ge is not satisfied with the reward I give, you can deduct all the pills I refine."
