Dou Po: This alchemist is too fierce

Chapter 20 Ask someone for help, summon a pharmacist (for further reading)

A few days ago in Wutan City, the Xiao Family Xiao Yan relied on the resources he had obtained at the Miter Auction. Xiao Yan successfully attacked the Dou Zhe and strengthened the sucking palm.

Jialie's family hired Liu Xi, a pharmacist, to produce a large number of healing medicines to attack the Xiao family's market. After gaining benefits, they drove up prices, and the Xiao family was in a difficult situation.

At the same time, in order to strengthen the Xiao family, Xiao Yan cooperated with Mittel's auction house as a black-robed man, and Mittel's auction house cooperated with each other to cut off the supply of medicinal materials to Jialie's family.

Xiao Yan came forward as a man in black robes, and counterattacked by refining coagulation powder with similar effects to Huichun powder. At the same time, he lowered the price and attacked Jialie's family, and took charge of Xiao's family as a fourth-grade pharmacist.

In order to compete for the market, the Xiao family counterattacked the Jialie family by spending a lot of money to hire a first-grade pharmacist Liu Xi, and the two sides began to compete...

"Teacher, why are you here?" Gu Ni, the second-grade pharmacist in the lobby on the first floor of Mittel's auction house, was calling Zhou Chen excitedly.

The crowded hall on the first floor was suddenly silent, and the receptionist opened his mouth, motionless, as if frozen.

Countless scorching eyes fell on Zhou Chen in white, and many of them picked out their ears, as if they were wondering if they hadn't picked out their earwax for too long, causing auditory hallucinations?

One is a well-known second-grade pharmacist or a treasure appraiser at Mittel's auction house, and the other is a young man with an unfamiliar face. Gu Ni called the young man a teacher, and it was obvious that everyone didn't believe it.

Ignoring everyone's whispers, Zhou Chen quickly entered the treasure appraisal room, and Gu Ni followed him in with his hem lifted. This scene was seen by people, and it was the first time that people felt that this old-fashioned old man was cute.

Entering the treasure appraisal room, Gu Ni kept smiling for a long time, "Teacher, don't say anything when you come, so the students can pick you up."

"Stop it. I told you not to call me teacher all the time outside. I'm not used to it."

"I understand, teacher, come here, go to my room and bring me some good Feilong tea."

"No need, I'm actually here to ask you to help..." Before the last word "busy" was said, Zhou Chen's voice stopped abruptly, and he suddenly thought of something.

The purpose of coming here is very simple, relying on Gu Ni and Mittel's connections to summon alchemists, and then earn experience to upgrade.

Gu Ni is over fifty years old, so he should be able to find a lot of people by coming forward, but it seems that this kind of recruiting is not effective enough and not active enough.

In Zhou Chen's heart, he didn't completely trust Gu Ni, and always felt that he had other plans. An old pharmacist at such an age recognized himself as a teacher. Could it be because of the foundation-building elixir on him?
In fact, the biggest headache is the motivation to recruit people...

Just imagine, if you ask someone else to make alchemy at your home, the pharmacist of that family will definitely not be active, maybe he will say that he has no time, his wife is pregnant, the old sow has a baby or something.

Maybe someone will give you face, but someone must find an excuse not to come, so that there will be fewer people?Wouldn't it take more time to gather 50 people?

Wouldn't it be more attractive if it was called Chengwutan City's Surrounding City Alchemist Skills Exchange Conference? Wouldn't it be beautiful to know the strength of the peers and then go crazy inward.

How about adding something more enticing...

Most of the people who came here were first-grade alchemists, and there were also some second-grade alchemists. Zhou Chen decided to add a bargaining chip to the conference, a second-grade alchemy recipe.

Although a first-grade pharmacist cannot refine a second-grade elixir, would such a person refuse?It's like when your mother gave you money when you were seventeen or eighteen years old, would you refuse to marry a daughter-in-law in the future?If you can't use it now, you can use it later. If you don't take it, you won't take it for nothing.

In the room, Zhou Chen straightened his face, "Mr. Gu Ni, I know that you are much older than me and have prestige in this area, but I am stupid and straightforward.

Thinking that you are my student, if you do something bad, I won't beat around the bush, and then I may criticize you regardless of your seniority. "

Hearing such serious words, the smile on Gu Ni's face gradually faded. It was the first time he had seen Zhou Chen like this. For some reason, Gu Ni felt a sense of oppression.

Unknowingly, Gu Ni straightened his back, "Teacher, just say what you want."

"How was the refining of the Bingxin Pill I gave you last time? Are you already proficient at it?"

"Now that I'm proficient, how about I refine it for you to see?"

"Okay." Zhou Chen replied quickly and without thinking.

In the alchemy room, Gu Ni was concentrating on refining the elixir. Not long after, Bing Xindan was brought in front of Zhou Chen, still breathing white.

Looking at the Bing Xin Dan with good quality, Zhou Chen couldn't help but praise Gu Ni in his heart. Gu Ni is worthy of being a senior second-grade pharmacist. There were no accidents in the process of refining the elixir, and he was a stable batch.

But Zhou Chen wanted to pick the bones, so he eagerly poured a basin of cold water on Gu Ni's head, "Have you seen the heat? The Bing Xin Dan was taken out too quickly, and a large change in temperature would cause the pill to be damaged." Influence.

Also, why do you have to look at the recipe from time to time when refining the elixir? You still can’t remember the recipe after so long? Do you know that this really chills me? "

Zhou Chen clutched his chest, his acting skills were slightly exaggerated, and he put on an expression of hating iron but not steel.

Gu Ni was stupefied for a moment, a little at a loss, "This, this pill, you only gave it to me for less than a week."

"You still refute me, it hurts..." Zhou Chen turned red, and in Gu Ni's eyes, Zhou Chen seemed to be about to explode with anger.

Gu Ni quickly supported Zhou Chen, who had his eyes closed tightly, and his tone was a little guilty, "Teacher, I thought about it and what you said makes sense. I didn't handle the alchemy thing well, and I failed to treat you well, teacher."

Zhou Chen opened one eye slightly, revealing a small gap to observe Gu Ni. Gu Ni's face was usually red but now it turned livid, and his eyes were full of frustration.

"Old man, his hair has turned gray and he is old. It is ridiculous that at this age he is only a second-grade alchemist. He has been refining in vain for so many years and still has achieved nothing. Sometimes I really envy you, teacher, for being able to refine at such a young age. Preparing second-grade elixir..."

As he was talking, Guy started to become pessimistic. The creases on both sides of his old eyes twitched from time to time, and his eyes were lowered, giving the impression that he had lost hope in life.

After supporting Zhou Chen, Gu Ni thumped his back, lowered his head slightly, and walked towards the door while sighing.

"No, what are you doing?"

"Teacher, I just thought about it. I should stop at the second grade in this life, so I won't trouble you, teacher." Gu Ni's voice was very low, a little weak.

Zhou Chen was a little dazed. He was fine at the beginning. Why did Gu Ni emo himself?

"Ah, ah, actually, I didn't want to want you."

Gu Ni's steps suddenly stopped and he slowly raised his head, "Teacher, what did you just say?"

Zhou Chen stroked his forehead with one hand and looked helpless, "If you know your mistakes, you can correct them. There is nothing good about you. I appreciate you for this, and I have no intention of driving you away."

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Zhou Chen seemed to see Gu Ni's body trembling a few times, "Seriously?"

Zhou Chen put one hand on his hip and pointed to a distance with the other. He spoke quickly, as if there were countless dazzling rays of light shining behind him.

"Actually, I'm here to help you improve your alchemy skills, so that you can make a qualitative leap. Maybe you can see the third-rank realm from it, marry Bai Fumei from now on, and walk to the pinnacle of life!"

The more Zhou Chen talked, the more excited he became, and the more Gu Ni listened, the more excited he became. He held his hands together tightly and his eyes flashed with gold! "real!?"

"Of course it's true, but that doesn't count at the end. It's just my words..."
