Chang Sheng curled his lips, quickly put the magic stone in place, then covered the furnace lid that didn't fit very well, and raised the flame. At this time, he picked up the medicinal materials he had bought a long time ago on the table and grabbed a handful.
, and threw it into the alchemy furnace. Perhaps those alchemists need to be careful and prepare everything in advance. With his level, refining a small first-level Qi Condensing Pill can be done with his eyes closed.
"Refining first-level elixirs is really boring. There are no elixirs now, and cultivation has slowed down. I have to find something to do. Why don't I forget this elixir that I improved in which year?
Improve it?"
Chang Sheng looked at the other medicinal materials on the table. After turning around, he landed on the Cordyceps sinensis he bought first. More than 90% of the Cordyceps sinensis bought yesterday were Tianxi Cordyceps sinensis. "This Tianxi Cordyceps sinensis is a good thing.
Logically speaking, it is theoretically possible to use it to replace ordinary Cordyceps sinensis, but this kind of Cordyceps sinensis is a good thing, and it is too wasteful to use it in Qi Condensing Pill. If it doesn't work, we have to find another way."
Chang Sheng sat on the edge of the bed and thought for a long time. His mouth was dry from thinking about it. When he picked up the teapot in front of him to drink tea, inspiration suddenly emerged, "You can use Kuding tea instead of Zhilan flowers, and then in this way, Xuezhi's
The weight should be reduced by one-quarter, and the weight of bamboo juice should be reduced by one-fifth. However, the amount of red peony root should be increased appropriately. However, the amount of red peony root I bought here was just right, so I have to go out to buy medicine.
No, we have to find another way and replace it with something that can be found in the house."
Chang Sheng continued to think about ways to improve the elixir. For him, refining the first-level elixir was just for fun. He was not afraid that the elixir he had randomly modified would fail. If in the end, he would not be able to refine the elixir.
, he himself should have been killed by a collision.
After a long time, Chang Sheng finally thought of the perfect solution to improve the elixir recipe. He jumped up from the bed, grabbed two medicinal materials, threw them into the elixir furnace, then hid the elixir furnace, opened the door, and ran out.
I went to look for a substitute...
The night was getting deeper. Chang Sheng lay on the bed, yawned, looked at the still burning stove, and closed his eyes. He was sleepy and ready to sleep. Although this Qi Condensing Pill was a first-level pill, he could
The conditions are so simple that it would take seven days to successfully refine it.
Fengdu City is called a city, but in fact, it is just a county town, and the government office is just a county government office.
Early the next morning, not long after the county master Wu Shiju got up, the master hurriedly came over.
"Master, we are in trouble. The Luo family submitted a lawsuit early this morning." As the master said, he handed the lawsuit to Wu Shiju, frowned and said: "Yesterday, the young master Luo Jin of the Luo family
Got beaten."
"Who is so brave and dares to beat Luo Jin!" Wu Shiju spread out the lawsuit, glanced at it quickly, and frowned, even more than the master. The person who beat him turned out to be the Chang family.
The foolish young master Chang Sheng.
The Chang family and the Luo family are both the four major families in Fengdu City, and they are both families mainly engaged in the elixir business. In the past, the two families had many conflicts, and this time they even came to him.
The master looked at his master's sad face, sighed in his heart, hesitated for a moment, and continued: "In addition, General Lin, the general who defended the city, also sent someone to hand over a note, saying that he heard that in the Herbal Hall yesterday,
He hopes that we can handle the matter of Chang Sheng's beating fairly and not be afraid of the Chang family."
"Lin Yuanzhi, what does this have to do with him? What is he meddling in!" Wu Shiju stretched out his hand and knocked his head gently or hard. It was really a headache. Others only saw him as the county master.
In charge of the governance of the entire Fengdu City, a dignified county magistrate has great glory, but who knows the pain behind him.
There are four major families in Fengdu City, a small city. On the surface, these four major families are quite polite to him, but in fact, none of them will buy his account. Moreover, there is also a city-defending general who is affiliated with the army in the city.
It was because of his military power that he didn't take him seriously at all. He was a county boss and it was really difficult to do that!
Seeing the sad look on the master's face, the master cautiously offered advice: "There is a quarrel between the two families, let them make trouble on their own. Master, we can't get into trouble. We can only make peace with this matter. However, the Luo family
Now that the lawsuit has been handed over, we can't ignore it and just go through the motions. Master, what do you think?"
"He Xini, I also want to be with Xini, but... that's all. Find two messengers and send them to Chang's house."
"Yes." The master responded, turned around, found two smart messengers, and sent them to Chang's house.
Under the leadership of the Chang family's servants, the two county government officials from the Chang family walked to the side hall where the Chang family entertained guests. They politely took the purple clay teacup handed by the Chang family's servant and placed it gently on the wooden table beside them.
The two of them looked at the round chair with armrests made of pear wood, which was carved with exquisite ice plum patterns and filled with bamboo silk. They looked at each other and stood quietly aside.
If they had gone to other places, they would have been sitting on chairs and sipping tea like old men, but this was the Chang family. They didn't even dare to let the air out here, and they were even more careful when putting the teacups.
Make some noise.
In the main hall of the Chang family, Chang Ganyi was sitting at the head of the table, and there were two old men on the seats on both sides.
"Patriarch, Miao Miao spent four thousand taels of silver yesterday. If the money was used for good things, then we have nothing to say. But as far as I know, she spent the money because Chang Sheng was playful.
I thought the medicinal materials were interesting, so I bought them. This is four thousand taels of silver. Even the small landowners in Fengdu City will take them two years to earn this much money."
The oldest man on the left side of Chang Ganyi spoke up. When he finished speaking, the other three old men on the side also responded: "Chief, what the elder said is very reasonable. Although our Chang family is rich,
, but we can’t waste money carelessly like this. If a family wants to last for a long time, it can’t be like this.”
Chang Ganyi has a headache. Recently, he has really annoyed the four elders of the family. At first, when Miao Miao's mother and the chief guest of the family Fang Xianyun tried the Qi Condensing Pill, they all supported her strongly. But as Fang followed
Xianyun failed again and again, and they began to oppose again. In the end, he had to temporarily compromise for a while and let Fang Xianyun first refine a few furnaces of the spiritual wisdom pill that he was already proficient in, and then continue the research on the Qi Condensation Pill after a while.
.
Today, these elders came here again because of a small matter yesterday. Isn't it just four thousand taels of silver? The profit that Piao Miao's mother's alchemy brought to the family was more than four thousand taels of silver!
Chang Ganyi rubbed his temples, stared at the four elders below, and said: "Elders, don't forget that Chang Sheng's father was the prime minister of the dynasty. Without him, our Chang family would not be what we are today.
His status, what if his son spends four thousand taels of silver on us?"
"It's better not to mention this matter." Another elder said with obvious dissatisfaction on his face: "Chief, your brother is Chang Sheng's father. He is a prime minister. If he helps the family a little, he will be a great minister." Will there be three other families in Fengdu City that can compare with our Chang family? And our Chang family will not still be nesting in Fengdu City. He is the prime minister under one person and above ten thousand people! Since he took the position of prime minister Bit, he hasn't helped the family at all!"
"Second Elder, things are not that simple. I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at my brother now. Even though he is the prime minister, he still has to face many constraints."
Chang Qianyi was explaining patiently when suddenly, a servant hurried in from outside the hall.
"Master, two police officers came to the house, saying that there is a case that needs our help from the Chang family to deal with it."
"Case?" Chang Ganyi was stunned for a moment, and quickly replied: "Okay, you lead the way, and I'll go see what happened that dared the police to find our Chang family."
Chang Ganyi informed the four elders on his left and right, and walked out of the hall. He was having a headache how to deal with the four elders. Unexpectedly, someone came, just in time to let him get rid of several elders. As for the case, he didn't care much. , the Chang family has always kept a low profile, and people in the family never bully others, and if there is a case, it will not be a big case. Moreover, his brother is the prime minister, a high-ranking official. Even if his brother rarely helps the family due to various reasons, However, among the officials below, who dares to disregard his brother’s face!
Walking into the side hall, Chang Qianyi stepped towards two police officers who stood beside the round chairs with fearful expressions on their faces.
"I wonder why the two messengers came to my Chang Mansion?"
The two of them listened to Chang Ganyi's faint voice, and somehow they always felt that there was some dissatisfaction in it. Could it be that the person in front of them was in a bad mood today? Thinking of this, both of them bent forward a little more and said respectfully. : "The thing is like this, the Luo family filed a lawsuit today, accusing the son of your family, Chang Sheng, of violently injuring the Luo family, Luo Jin, and then also injured the second housekeeper of the Luo family who tried to persuade him. Therefore, the county master's life The two of us are here, hoping to invite Mr. Chang Sheng to go to the Yamen to assist."
"Hmph!" After listening to the words of the two policemen, Chang Ganyi's face suddenly turned cold and he said coldly: "What kind of help? I want my family Chang Sheng to go to trial. Just tell me. You go back and tell Wu Shiju that our family Chang Sheng is in poor health today. If you don't feel well, you won't go." The joke was that Chang Sheng was the biological son of the prime minister of the dynasty, so he didn't believe it. If Chang Sheng didn't go to the county government office, the county boss would dare to send people to the Chang Mansion to arrest people.
"Uh..." When the two police officers heard Chang Ganyi's words, they had no choice but to retreat or stay. This left them with what to do. Facing the head of the Chang family, one of the four major families, how could they dare to contradict him? Chang Ganyi wants to deal with them, which is no different from dealing with an ant. But if they don't do what the county master ordered them to do, they will be in trouble when they go back.
