Qin Gengyun left Zhaiyu Alley and arrived at Lingdanfang in time.
When I walked in, I met Wang Ping and Xu Li. They looked tired and had bags under their eyes. It was obvious that they went to Yihong Tower to listen to music again last night.
"Fellow Daoist Qin, let's go to sleep for a while. When Manager Yang comes, tell us to clean the backyard."
The two of them weakly bowed their hands to Qin Gengyun, said something and then walked to a room on the left side of the courtyard.
That was the master's former alchemy room, and the old bronze furnace and low-grade spiritual fan were placed in it.
When the Spiritual Pill Workshop first opened, the owner used this bronze furnace to make alchemy. Later, after earning spiritual stones, the owner bought a low-grade spirit-gathering furnace and built a larger alchemy room next to it.
The old alchemy room and bronze furnace have been left idle, and now it has become a good place for Wang Ping and Xu Li to sleep.
The master of the shop was out today, and only his apprentice was in the shop, so the two of them dared to be so wild last night.
"Don't worry, fellow Taoists, I'll call you if anything happens."
"Thank you, fellow Daoist Qin. I'll invite you to listen to music at Yihong Mansion another day!"
"Well, that's not necessary."
The Moyu duo entered the old alchemy room, and Qin Gengyun cleaned the yard alone while thinking about the alchemy equipment.
He remembered that a low-quality fire control fan used by the shop owner was also placed in the old alchemy room.
Just as he was thinking about it, a male cultivator wearing a fine brocade white robe walked in. He was short and fat, but walked with a wind, and his short legs showed off his momentum.
Seeing Qin Gengyun, the short and fat monk asked solemnly:
"Why are you alone, where are Wang Ping and Xu Li?"
Qin Gengyun said: "Manager Yang, Wang Ping and Xu Li are cleaning the backyard."
This short and fat male cultivator is called Yang Fengshan. He is the disciple of the master of the workshop and the manager of the spiritual elixir workshop. He also serves as the spiritual fan medicine official of the workshop leader.
Medicine officials are also divided into high and low status. From top to bottom, they are Lingfan Medicine Official, Erysipelas Medicine Official and Dan Furnace Medicine Official.
The Spiritual Fan Medicine Officer is responsible for fanning the fire-controlling spiritual fan when the alchemist is refining alchemy, and controlling the size of the furnace fire. It requires detailed control of cultivation and spiritual energy. It is quite important, so it has the highest status.
Erysipelas Medicine Officials are exposed to toxic medicine dregs all year round and are risking their lives. Their remuneration is not even less than that of Lingfan Medicine Officials, and their status is second.
The alchemy furnace official is the most insignificant. He usually cleans the alchemy furnace and makes alchemy by standing outside and shouting "Come on" twice. His status is the lowest.
This Yang Fengshan is the disciple of the master of the workshop. He has followed the master of the workshop for many years and belongs to one person in Lingdan Workshop.
In Qin Gengyun's previous life, this would have been the department head.
Yang Fengshan also has a dignified attitude in managing affairs on weekdays. Except for the owner of the workshop, he shouts and orders everyone else, and he is full of authority.
When he heard Qin Gengyun's answer, he hummed and asked again:
"Where's Old Man Fang?"
Old man Fang is the only elixir aide in the Lingdan Workshop. It is said that his daughter is in Zhenyang City and has the hope of entering the outer gate of the Zhenyang Sect. For the sake of his daughter's future, he is willing to risk his life to earn spiritual stones.
Qin Gengyun replied: "Manager Yang, Fellow Daoist Fang had a bad cough yesterday and asked for leave today."
Yang Fengshan snorted: "Fortunately, Master is not refining elixirs today, otherwise it would have delayed things. With this kind of tuberculosis, sooner or later he will be sent away!"
After he finished speaking, he walked inside. Qin Gengyun called out to him: "Manager Yang."
Yang Fengshan turned around and said impatiently: "What's the matter?"
Qin Gengyun said: "Can you please tell the workshop owner if I can use the unused alchemy room in my spare time?"
Yang Fengshan looked at him in surprise: "Why did you borrow the alchemy room?"
Qin Gengyun raised his hands and said, "I have recently gained some insights into alchemy and would like to practice it. Manager Yang, if the owner of the workshop allows me, I can also pay for it."
He originally planned to buy the second-hand bronze furnace and spiritual fan in the alchemy workshop, but the cost should not be low, not to mention that the house he rented was too small, and it would be difficult to move around the house if the alchemy furnace was placed.
It is better to directly borrow the venue and equipment of Lingdanfang.
Of course, it would be better if you could do it for free.
"Alchemy? You? Haha."
Hearing Qin Gengyun's words, Yang Fengshan sneered twice, turned around and left.
Qin Gengyun stepped forward quickly: "Manager Yang, can you help me? If that doesn't work, I can also buy the bronze furnace and the spiritual fan."
Yang Fengshan glared at Qin Gengyun: "Has the yard been cleaned? Have the alchemy stones in the alchemy furnace been replaced? None? Then you are still daydreaming here?"
"Get everything done before noon, otherwise I will report it to the boss and deduct your spiritual stone!"
Looking at Yang Fengshan's short and fat back, Qin Gengyun shook his head helplessly.
It seems that I can only try my luck at the night market.
At Youshi, Qin Gengyun came out of Lingdanfang after taking a break, ate something outside, and when it got dark, he came to Caifeng Street East Street.
This is the night market in Yunling Town. There are many vendors selling goods here every night.
They range from eighteen-year-old storybooks to second-grade elixirs, and they are all sold in night markets.
Of course, whether the things you buy are genuine or fake depends on your own vision and luck.
Qin Gengyun walked into the night market. There were densely packed stalls on both sides of the spacious bluestone road, and his ears were filled with the cries of the vendors:
"After eating the Albizia Julibrissin Pill, the Taoist monks screamed joyfully. One pill only costs one spirit stone!"
"Second-hand low-grade flying sword, it can fly and cut people, it's a powerful weapon, it only costs 20 spirit stones!"
"The best spiritual beast, Huang Yulong, can be big or small, long or short, a must-have for single female cultivators!"
Qin Gengyun walked up to the vendor selling "Huang Yulong" and asked him:
"Fellow Daoist Huang, Daoist Mo will not be here tonight?"
This fellow Daoist Huang was greeting a female cultivator who came to see Huang Yulong. The so-called "Huang Yulong" is a first-order spiritual beast with a golden color and an eel-like shape. If fed properly, it has a very small chance of turning into a spiritual dragon.
It was originally a fighting spirit beast that needed to be slowly cultivated. Later, some female cultivators discovered other magical uses, and it became the most popular product in the night market.
After greeting the female cultivator who came to inquire about the price, Daoist Huang said to Qin Gengyun:
"Fellow Daoist Qin is here? Fellow Daoist Mo has gone to deliver something to someone. He will be back soon."
He pointed to an empty stall next to him, and Qin Gengyun smiled: "Then I'll help her guard it for a while."
Qin Gengyun sat down and saw dozens of low-level talismans on the stall, including a few of the "magic talismans" he used last night.
The owner of this stall is a female talisman master who also lives in Zhaiyu Lane, just across the lane from Qin Gengyun's house.
Speaking of this female neighbor, Qin Gengyun also admired her very much.
She only has the second level of Qi training and is a first-level talisman master. She has no roots or credentials. She works as a postmaster during the day, runs a night market at night, goes back to practice and draws talisman paper in the early morning, and goes out again the next morning.
If she could succeed with hard work, then Qin Gengyun believed that she would have become a powerful Nascent Soul.
It's a pity that in this world, talent and background are indispensable, and hard work doesn't count at all.
But this female neighbor just works hard.
Qin Gengyun was quite familiar with her and had heard her say that she would rely on her own abilities to realize her dreams and not rely on anyone else.
Therefore, even though Qin Gengyun was familiar with her, the couple never considered her.
Because he knew that Fellow Daoist Mo would not take the narrow path.
After waiting for a moment, a thin figure wearing a plain Taoist robe hurried over. Qin Gengyun stood up and said with a smile:
"Fellow Daoist Mo, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
