This house was purchased by the owner of the family next door. His family was not short of money, and he also had a good relationship with the previous owner's family. He was willing to buy it because of this.
Although he didn't buy it at the original price, it was good enough that he was willing to take over under the circumstances.
Probably because he felt uncomfortable holding it in his hand, Ning Zhishui came up to ask about it, so he sold it.
They easily made a fortune by changing hands, and both of them were very happy.
Now that there is a house, there must be servants as well. Ning Zhishui leaves this matter to Hua Jiaqing.
It happened that she was going to a Dan meeting tomorrow, and Hua Jiaqing could buy someone by then.
After a tiring day, Ning Zhishui fell asleep early, and when he woke up, he and Hua Jiaqing went out together.
After walking a short distance, Ning Zhishui turned towards Danhui.
Every city has a professional guild. According to the development and prosperity of each city, the size of the guild varies. The main personnel are dispatched by the general guild in each continent.
The three strongest city-level guilds are of course the Zhoufu Guild in Sanzhou, but probably because there are more strong ones in Luo Yucheng, the weak ones can't hold down the situation here, so the configuration is not bad.
Otherwise, earth-level alchemists like President Meng, who are very likely to reach the heaven-level, would not be sent to Luo Yucheng.
When Ning Zhishui found the place, he saw the busy scene inside.
Guilds can take on individual missions as well as group missions.
For example, if a family needs to distribute some cultivation resources to its disciples every month, then these elixirs may be handed over to the Dan Society for refining.
The same goes for individual customers. If monks have elixirs they want to refine, they can find the guild. After the guild receives the order, it will be distributed to the alchemists in the guild, and the profits will be divided proportionally.
The advantage of taking over work from a guild is that the quality is reliable and there will be no cutting corners. The disadvantage is that the price is relatively high.
In addition, there are some studies and exchanges within the Dan Club, as well as competitions with guilds in other cities, etc.
When Ning Zhishui came, he saw many alchemists receiving the materials, and then hurried into the alchemy room. There was no time for him to pay attention to them during the process, and their feet were too busy to touch the ground.
It was at this time that a female nun came.
The female cultivator was wearing an old dress, her face was haggard, and her hair was not carefully combed into a bun. She asked as soon as she came, "Excuse me, Alchemist, is the Tiqing Pill I bought ready?"
The person sitting behind the cabinet at the door must be a steward. He raised his eyelids and said, "Ciao Qing Wan? Let me check."
The female nun seemed anxious, but she still waited patiently.
The steward flipped through a few pages and then said, "Ting Qing Wan? Are you remembering it wrong? We don't take the job of this pill here."
The female cultivator was stunned for a moment, her face turned pale, and then her voice suddenly became louder, "Impossible! You have obviously accepted eight hundred crystal stones from me, and I still have your token here..."
As he spoke, he took out a wooden sign with the mark of the Danhui on it.
This kind of wooden sign is specially used for transactions. One sign has one number. Each number will be registered and correspond to different orders.
There is a "42" on this wooden sign. Normally, if you go to the registered book, you will find the transaction corresponding to 42 on it.
Ning Zhishui was standing at the door and looking at it. He was not in a hurry to go in. When he saw what happened, he just watched.
Everyone inside was busy with their own business, and no one paid attention to her.
The steward took the sign from the female nun and then opened the book.
As he was flipping through the pages, he seemed to frown, and Ning Zhishui's sharp eyes saw a change in his eyes.
But soon he said, "There is no Mi Qing Wan. It says Mi Qing Wan. Did you remember it wrong?"
The female cultivator shook her head like crazy, "No, it's not Miaqing Pills. My son is seriously ill and what he needs is Tiqing Pills. There's nothing wrong with that! I want Tiqing Pills. Give them to me quickly!"
But the steward kept a straight face and said, "See for yourself, it says Miasma Qing Wan, here, this is it."
He took out the miasma clear pill that he had made and handed it to the female cultivator.
The female cultivator knocked down the bottle and said, "This is not mine. What I bought was obviously the Tiqing Pills, which were used to treat my child's illness! I came here the night before yesterday. You took my money and agreed to take me today." Come and get the elixir in the morning... You must have made a mistake!"
The steward sighed, "There are only Miaqing Pills, not Xingqing Pills. If you want it, take it, or I will give you back the eight hundred crystal stones."
The female cultivator burst into tears, "How could you do this? I came here to buy elixirs because I trusted you. I didn't even agree to the fact that other stores only charge 750 crystals. My son has managed to survive until now and is just waiting for the elixir to cure him." How could there be no disease? How could there be no disease?"
The elixir is gone, what will her three-year-old son do?
Different from the elixirs used by adults, the elixirs for children need to be accurately controlled according to their age and symptoms, so there are not many ready-made medicines, and most of them need to be customized.
This kind of customization takes at least a day, that is, if you find someone today, the medicine can be delivered tomorrow.
If you want to go out on the same day, you not only have to pay more, but the most important thing is that there must be an alchemist willing to take over the job.
They often have many orders in their hands and need to queue up time. They cannot jump in line just by placing an order.
The female cultivator has been waiting for more than a day because she gave this order to Danhui. So what if the money is refunded to her now? How could she find Ti Qing Wan in such a short time!
The manager shook his head and said, "I can't help you. The alchemists in our alchemy society have work on their hands. If you want us to practice, we have to come and pick it up tomorrow."
The female cultivator cried helplessly, anxious and sad, "I can wait for one day, but my son can't wait...Master, please do me a favor and help my son make elixirs as soon as possible. I'll wait for you here, okay?"
She didn't know what the problem was. Of course she was angry, but her concern for her son got the better of her, and she didn't dare to offend the alchemist at all.
Why not say something nice and maybe the other party would be willing to jump in line for her?
Ning Zhishui saw the crux of the problem.
The steward clearly saw something when he looked at the booklet, but for some unknown reason, he didn't say anything.
It stands to reason that when registering, the book will have very detailed information, such as what day the guest paid, how much he paid, who was responsible for the registration, etc.
The steward just went to see it and should have seen the corresponding registered person's name. The correct approach is to call that person over and ask clearly who is responsible.
But he didn't do that.
Is he the one responsible for registration?
No, if it were him, the female cultivator would have told him directly, and she would definitely confront him on the spot.
That is, the person above is in charge and doesn’t want to offend?
Ning Zhishui didn't think that the female nun gave the wrong name to the elixir that saved her son's life, so most of the problem lies with the registered person.
"What's the fuss about so early in the morning, Uncle Jiang? If any guests make trouble, just throw them out."
A yawning alchemist came out of the alchemy room.
