"On the contrary, our Five Elements Chamber of Commerce has nothing to do with their Pill Alliance." Cai Zhongyang shook his head.
"Gah?" Lin Yi was stunned for a moment and said strangely: "Didn't it mean that all merchants selling elixirs in Zhongdaofang City must unconditionally accept the supervision of the elixir alliance?"
"Theoretically, this is true, but our Five Elements Chamber of Commerce is an exception. You don't know, Mr. Lin, that when our Five Elements Chamber of Commerce was first established, there was no such thing as the Laoshizi Pill Alliance! It's just because our Five Elements Chamber of Commerce has become so popular that it has forced many other companies to The elixir merchants can only use this name to stay together, isolate us, and spread rumors that the quality of the elixirs of the Five Elements Chamber of Commerce is not up to standard, and they want to use this to fight against us." Cai Zhongyang curled his lips sarcastically.
"What's the result?" Lin Yi and others asked.
"In the end, my master only said one sentence. As long as we can provide evidence, it doesn't matter if I give up the title of Alchemy God to your Alchemy Alliance. But, can any of you afford it?" Cai Zhongyang imitated. Zhang Liju's tone was academic, and then he smiled contemptuously: "After that, without us having to do anything, the customers spontaneously began to boycott the elixir alliance. In the end, they had no choice but to come to the door collectively with many chamber of commerce bosses. I went to my master to beg for mercy, and then the storm gradually calmed down."
"Haha, what a bunch of clowns." Lin Yi couldn't help but laugh, and secretly marveled in his heart. The influence and appeal of his cheap master on Tianjie Island is really extraordinary. One sentence can determine the market direction. This is amazing. It cannot be achieved simply by having status and strength.
"So, although our Five Elements Chamber of Commerce is not in the elixir alliance, as long as they say a word, they will never even dare to fart. If I say hello over there, they will not dare to come to your Tiandan Pavilion again. trouble!" Cai Zhongyang assured with a smile.
"Okay, let's trouble Mr. Cai." Lin Yi nodded. With the double protection of Tian Xingdao and Cai Zhongyang, no one with normal eyesight would feel uncomfortable coming to the door again.
"By the way, I see that although you have mostly top-grade elixirs here, the highest grade is only the fourth grade. I suggest you add some high-grade elixirs above the fifth grade. Of course, people will also buy the third- and fourth-grade elixirs, but now It’s just a business opening. If it stays at this level, it will lack competitiveness compared with other large elixir merchants, which is not conducive to long-term development." Cai Zhongyang thought for a while and suggested.
"I've actually considered this question carefully, but I don't have a fifth-grade or above elixir on hand now, and I've never refined it. I can only take my time." Lin Yi shook his head helplessly.
"Junior Brother Cai is the deputy shopkeeper of the Chamber of Commerce. It's hard for him to directly come forward to help. Otherwise, how about I find a reason to get some from the Alchemy Hall? As long as the quantity is not too large, it shouldn't be a big problem." Hou Guanqi interrupted at this time.
"Thank you two seniors for your kindness, but you can't use it now. After all, it has just opened. These top-grade fourth-grade elixirs can last for a while." Lin Yi quickly waved his hand and refused.
Let Hou Guanqi directly obtain elixir support from the Dantang. Although the method is simple, it is a fair transaction with spiritual jade. It is still easy to manipulate others. Once Zheng Dongjue discovers this kind of thing and is labeled as cheating, even if Hou Guanqi is Zhang Liju's registered disciple, he is afraid that he will not be able to take advantage of it. Lin Yi does not want to suffer because of himself. Let him take that risk.
Seeing this, Hou Guanqi and Cai Zhongyang looked at each other and said nothing more. Just as Lin Yi was worried, the risk of this matter was indeed not small.
At this moment. Tian Xingdao on the side suddenly said: "You guys are really obsessed with the authorities. Isn't this kind of thing very simple? Brother Lin Yi is an alchemist himself. Xiaohou Xiaocai, you can get him some recipes and materials for fifth-grade elixirs." Come here. Let him refine it by himself. This will stop people from gossiping, right?"
When Hou Guanqi and Cai Zhongyang heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up and they clapped their hands and praised him. Because Lin Yi was too young, they subconsciously ignored it. This guy is a freak who can refine large amounts of top-quality elixirs!
Even if Lin Yi has never refined a fifth-grade elixir before, since he can refine a top-grade fourth-grade elixir, a fifth-grade elixir should be no problem.
Hou Guanqi immediately took out three elixir prescriptions from his arms, handed them to Lin Yi and said: "Little friend Lin Yi, these three are all fifth-grade elixir prescriptions. I will send people the materials later. You take the time to explore and try them. If you can succeed, then It couldn’t be better.”
"Then you're welcome, thank you, Senior Hou!" Lin Yi did not refuse, this was exactly what he needed, not to mention that the other party was also his quasi-senior brother, so he didn't need to be too arrogant, as long as he tried to repay him in the future. .
Hou Guanqi and Cai Zhongyang told Lin Yi many of their experiences in refining fifth-grade elixirs, until it was already dark and after dinner, they left with Tian Xingdao.
As for Lin Yi, Tianchan, and Xueli, now that they have Tiandan Pavilion as their own territory, they naturally no longer need to go to the Five Elements Chamber of Commerce with Cai Zhongyang.
After a busy day, the two women were asked to go back to their rooms to rest. Lin Yi himself began to refine the fifth-grade elixir overnight. Although he had never tried it, with the automatic elixir refining artifact of the Shen Nong Medicine Cauldron, he felt that it should not be a big problem.
Lin Yi took out one of the fifth-grade elixir recipes and entered it into the tablet computer. The Shen Nong Yao Ding then began to automatically analyze the alchemy curve. Although the waiting time was longer than before when refining fund-building elixirs, the results showed that everything was normal. , and there were no surprises.
Immediately, Lin Yi followed the tips of the alchemy curve and began to try to refine the fifth-grade elixir with ease. The process lasted for two hours and then came to an abrupt end. The final result was failure.
Looking at the pile of dark residue inside the medicine cauldron, Lin Yi was stunned for a long time. Ever since Han Jingjing helped him transform the Shen Nong Medicine Cauldron, he had never failed, especially since this was the first time since he went to Tianjie Island.
But after all, this was the first time he tried a fifth-grade elixir, and Lin Yi was mentally prepared for failure. Fortunately, this failure did not affect the Shen Nong Medicine Cauldron itself. Otherwise, if there was any furnace explosion incident, If the Divine Pesticide Cauldron is destroyed, it will really make me want to cry without tears.
After adjusting his state, Lin Yi was not discouraged. He immediately started all over again without saying a word. He could feel that in fact, there was no principle problem with the attempt just now. It was just the first time to refine a fifth-grade elixir. The medicinal cauldron might be useful for The analysis of the alchemy curve is not particularly accurate. After this failure, it should be automatically corrected in the future. (To be continued.)
