Gu Lie smiled bitterly, but the two alchemists were overjoyed.
They were controlled by the Gu family. First of all, the Gu family was indeed a giant in Dongzhou City back then, and they were willing to sacrifice their lives.
Secondly, they are not Alchemy Kings. In Dongzhou City, unless they are Alchemy Kings, all the major families are vying to make friends first, so the two of them can only hang out among casual cultivators.
However, the recent decline of the Gu family has already caused many hard-working alchemists of the Gu family to have second thoughts. The two of them are one of them, but their contract is still in the hands of the Gu family, so they naturally dare not mess with it.
Seeing that the contract was terminated, both of them sneered.
"Then thank you young master for your noble hand."
The two of them simply saluted Gu Lie, "Master Lie, we have worked hard for the Gu family for many years. Since the Gu family no longer needs us two, we will say goodbye today."
"Young Master Lie, see you later."
Gu Lie wanted to stop him, but Li Ye stopped him with his eyes.
Although two alchemists left, the other clerks and helpers in the shop didn't have any thoughts.
This is also related to their status. Master Qu and Master Ye dare to leave like this because they are alchemists. At least they can find a sect to be loyal to them.
But they are just some servants and guards of the Gu family. In this Dongzhou City, even if the Gu family declines again, they are still one of the ten families and the master of Dongzhou City.
"Brother Li, why did you let them leave just now?"
Although the Gu family has no shortage of these ordinary alchemists, they felt a little displeased with the attitude of Master Qu and Master Ye just now.
But Li Ye just smiled and said, "I am in the Cao camp but my heart is in the Han Dynasty. There is no need for such a person."
Although he didn't understand the origin of Li Ye's words, Gu Lie was no ordinary person. He obviously understood and frowned slightly, "What does Brother Li mean? Those two people have long wanted to leave?"
"When a tree falls, the monkeys scatter, and when the wall falls, everyone pushes back. Although the Gu family is temporarily stable, many people are waiting for the day when the Gu family leaves Dongzhou City and gives up one of the ten families."
"Hmph, they are a bunch of profit-seeking and unjust people. My Gu family treated them well, but now they behave like this! Forget it, Brother Li, I will go back and mention it to grandpa right now, and ask the family to send some alchemists to listen to Li
Brother sent me."
The Gu family now naturally wants to establish a good relationship with Li Ye, and naturally they will spare no effort.
Unfortunately, Li Ye shook his head, "It doesn't matter, but I do need some manpower."
"Brother Li, just ask, as long as my Gu family can do it, I won't say anything."
"Brother Gu is serious. Now this place is arranged by Master Baiwukai. However, as Master Baiwukai, it is naturally impossible to do everything with all his strength. He does need some manpower. Well, there were some disciples in Qingming Tiangong before.
When they arrive at the Gu family, let them start fighting here."
Those disciples of Qingming Tiangong?
Gu Lie was a little surprised, but he didn't think much about it and nodded, "That's no problem, but Brother Li really doesn't need a few alchemists to take charge?"
"Haha, since Master Baiwucrai is the one making the decision here, let's let Master Baiwucrai decide this matter."
Although Li Ye resisted, Bai Wukai smiled and said, "Young Master Lie, you are too polite. I like peace and quiet. As Li Xiaoyou said, this arrangement is very good."
Gu Lie couldn't help but couldn't help but smile bitterly in disappointment. The Gu family's original plan was not like this, but he couldn't refuse. He could only nodded, "In that case, I will arrange it as soon as possible."
As soon as Gu Lie left, Bai Wukai showed a hint of respect, "Young Master, are you wary of the Gu family spying on Young Master's elixir recipe?"
Whether it was letting go of the two alchemists or whether Li Ye only wanted a few disciples from Qingming Tiangong, it was obvious that the Gu family's plan had failed.
Li Ye shook his head and smiled, "Not exactly. Emperor Danwu's elixir formula is definitely not something ordinary people can see through. Even if they come, without their own unique techniques, they will just copy the gourd and it is impossible to truly refine it."
"What does the young master mean?"
"It is true that the Gu family has a good relationship with me now, but I do need to have a foothold of my own in Dongzhou City. Let's start from here. Moreover, I trust Qingming Tiangong more than the Gu family."
No matter what, the relationship between Emperor Qingming and him is definitely stronger than the relationship between him and the Gu family.
"Then everything is subject to the arrangements of the young master."
No one would have thought that such an arrogant and arrogant Bai Wukai, a ninth-level alchemy king, would be so obedient to a junior, even calling him Young Master, as if he had become a member of Li Ye's throne.
Li Ye didn't refuse. After all, Bai Wuli had erysipelas and he still needed time to resolve it.
"Bai Lao, you will be in charge of the elixir shop for the time being. However, you are not in a good condition to start refining elixirs yet. However, your disciple has a good foundation. In my opinion, he is already 10% as good as you."
The disciple of Bai Wukai was the woman who was molested by Lin Yu, the eldest son of the Lin family, in the restaurant. Although she looked a bit like a little girl compared to the few confidants around Li Ye, she was pretty in the eyes of ordinary people.
Great human beauty.
As if he might have misunderstood, Bai Wukai hesitated for a moment after hearing the words, and then said, "If the young master is interested, why not let her accompany the young master to serve him?"
Obviously, Bai Wuxi took Li Ye's words just now as a hint that he wanted to get the body of his closed disciple.
Li Ye was also slightly stunned, and then laughed dumbly, "Bailao misunderstood, I just think that she has good talent, and I hope to inherit your mantle in the future. It just so happened that the disciples of Qingming Tiangong asked her to teach her well.
Ichiban, how about it?"
Although he knew that he would be wrong, Bai Wukai didn't know why, and a trace of disappointment flashed in his heart.
He treats his disciple as if he were his daughter, and ordinary people would naturally not get his consent. But Li Ye is different. In his opinion, if his disciple can stay with Li Ye, it will definitely be an opportunity.
It's a pity that Li Ye didn't intend to do this.
"Young master, you can rest assured. Although I can't make pills now, I still have no big problem teaching a few disciples."
It didn't take long for the Gu family to make arrangements.
Several disciples from Qingming Tiangong who came to the Gu family have been assigned to Li Ye's side.
And obviously they knew Li Ye's identity to some extent. After all, they had already received instructions before leaving Qingming Tiangong.
"Yan Yang, a disciple of Qingming Tiangong, has met the elder."
It turned out that among the several disciples who came to the Gu family this time, Yan Yang was among them.
And he was also the only person who knew Li Ye's identity to some extent, and when he opened his mouth, Bai Wukai was a little surprised.
