Laiming hotpot restaurant.
Second floor.
Box No. 4.
In the center of the round table stood a mandarin duck pot, cooking slowly.
Beside it are filled with various ingredients such as beef slices, Xiaojun liver, duck intestines, etc.
Song Ruyuan picked up the melon seeds in front of him and knocked them casually.
Yu Hongfei glanced at the watch on his wrist, then looked outside the window and said:
"The time is almost up. If this person hasn't come yet, he won't let us go, right?"
Song Ruyuan smiled and said:
“Since he agreed to come, he will definitely not deceive us.
Maybe there was a temporary problem at hand, which delayed a little time.
At worst, we can just wait a little longer.
The strong always have privileges. "
"Speaking of this, I'm a little curious why Director Song didn't take the initiative to visit his home?
Obviously we have found out his home address.
Wouldn't it appear more sincere if you visit at your door? "
"Why do you think people are willing to let you go?"
Song Ruyuan said meaningfully:
"According to the information we heard, although the man was working as a delivery boy, he had never invited anyone to his home.
Even people who had contact with him in the spiritual circle had never been to his home.
This proves that he doesn't want people to go to his house to a certain extent.
Maybe this guess is wrong, but we must be cautious.
So it would be best to call him to make an appointment and transfer the initiative to him.
After that, we decided on this restaurant and it was a good choice to chat about things while eating at noon.
As for deepening the connection, there will always be opportunities in the future.
Don’t forget, we also need to provide him with supplies on a regular basis every month.
There will always be contact in the middle. "
“Speaking of supplies, I remember that he obtained them in exchange for the benefits of the spiritual land.
The requirements include a large amount of alchemy materials, array diagrams, elixir recipes, etc.
But is that spiritual place really that valuable? "
Yu Hongfei asked doubtfully.
Song Ruyuan patted the melon seed shells in his hand and said with a smile:
“Of course, purely based on the value of the spiritual land, it is definitely not enough.
According to our current exploration and calculation of that spiritual land.
It can only be regarded as a first-grade spiritual land at best.
Even in the underground cave with the highest spiritual energy concentration in the middle, there is only an upper level.
More of them are lower-level first-grade ones close to the periphery.
Even in a lower-level first-level spiritual land, the speed of cultivation is faster than that in the outside world.
But the bonus to practice is not as great as imagined.
If you use formations such as the Spirit Gathering Formation, there is actually not much difference.
The greatest value of the spiritual land is that as the spiritual energy recovers, it has the possibility of improving its level.
When the external spiritual energy becomes more intense, it may be promoted to the second level spiritual land.
The second-grade spiritual land is quite valuable. Even if I practice in it, I will benefit a lot.
However, there is a chance of this kind of promotion, and it is possible that you will not be promoted at all.
And even if you can be promoted, the process is bound to take a lot of time.
During this time, maybe we can all discover other spiritual places. "
Yu Hongfei became more and more confused:
"Then why..."
"Hear me out."
Song Ruyuan waved his hand and continued:
“I know what you mean, spiritual plants and spiritual materials are also strategic materials for us.
What the bureau has in stock will only be too small and not enough for use, and will not be traded with others at all.
Not to mention that this kind of deal still looks like we are at a disadvantage.
But don't forget that this transaction is of a different nature than usual.
The transaction itself is more about winning over the other party and cultivating goodwill.
It’s just a spiritual place, so naturally we don’t take it seriously.
But his own value is far higher than that spiritual place.
Not to mention other things, he easily killed two level 7 people in the spiritual land, which was difficult for outsiders to do.
Even if we use the strength of our branch, it will take a lot of effort to deal with two level 7s.
But the one who was chopping melons and vegetables cooked them both.
This strength alone is worth our investment.
No one can guarantee that there will not be a bigger crisis in Qinghu City.
Not to mention that the spiritual tide is about to break out now, and monsters and monsters from all sides are ready to move. This is the moment when strong people are needed to take control.
Even if that person doesn't want to join us, as long as he is willing to lend a helping hand at a critical moment, he can help us.
All these investments now are considered to be huge profits! "
“And you have to know we’re not the only ones dealing with him.
The ownership of the spiritual land is divided between us and the Magician Alliance.
That old boy Bai Shichang is very slippery.
He hopes that you will compromise on this transaction.
If it weren't for something happening on his side, he would be delayed now.
Do you believe that he will also come to this party today? "
Yu Hongfei nodded clearly.
In my heart, I paid more and more attention to Su Mo.
After waiting for about two minutes, there was a knock on the door outside.
Then Su Mo stepped in.
"Sorry, I accidentally discovered a strange monster on the way, which delayed me a little."
Su Mo put the helmet on the chair next to him with a slight apology on his face.
Song Ruyuan stood up and said with a smile:
"It's okay, it's okay. At worst, I'll crack some more seeds."
After the two parties exchanged greetings, they started eating hot pot without too much delay.
Seeing that twenty dishes were added in a row, Su Mo could barely stop his chopsticks.
Looking at the two people with slightly surprised expressions, Su Mo said with a smile:
“It’s a lot of work to do takeout, so some of it can be eaten.”
“Being able to eat well means that you can still enjoy the delicious food.
Unlike me, as I get older, I don’t have any extra thoughts when eating. "
Song Ruyuan responded with a smile.
Su Mo continued:
"Since we've already said it on the phone, let's finish the small matters at hand first."
As he said that, Su Mo took out three pills and pushed them towards the two of them.
These three pills are Peiyuan Pill, Qingmu Pill and Qi Condensing Pill.
After hearing Su Mo describe the effects of these three elixirs, Song Ruyuan and Yu Hongfei both showed surprise on their faces.
They knew that Su Mo would trade elixirs with them when he came this time.
In fact, they had guessed that Su Mo might be refining elixirs when they provided many spiritual materials.
But alchemy is alchemy, whether it can be successful or not is another matter.
After all, the raw materials for many ancient prescriptions are difficult to find now.
Even the Civil Security Bureau has very limited Dan recipes that can be completely reproduced.
The most important thing is that even if it can be successfully reproduced, the spiritual plants available for alchemy are extremely rare.
Nowadays, only a small number of spiritual lands and even special areas can grow spiritual plants, and once they are planted, their level is still very low.
For example, those high-level elixirs are basically prepared by relying on spiritual plants excavated from various ruins.
And the effect is often inferior to the description in the prescription.
This is mainly because too much time has passed, and no matter how well they are kept, those spiritual plants often lose part of their medicinal power.
So much so that now the entire Civil Security Bureau can only refine third-grade elixirs.
Although there are not a few products below the third grade, they are basically in limited supply, and even internal demand is difficult to meet.
Now that they learned that Su Mo had succeeded in making alchemy, they were naturally very happy.
After all, in this way, the spiritual plants and spiritual materials traded with him can be traded back in the form of elixirs.
It's not a waste anyway.
The only thing worth doubting is that the elixir itself is not very good or the price is too high.
But now that Su Mo is introducing the three elixirs in front of him, at least there should be no problem in terms of quality.
Song Ruyuan broke open the three pills and tasted a little of each.
There was a vague look of surprise in his eyes:
“This medicine seems to be more effective than I imagined.
Especially this Qingmu Dan, which is also a first-grade elixir, is more effective than the one equipped in the bureau. "
"I think this Peiyuan Pill should be of greater use."
Yu Hongfei wiped the powder from the corner of his mouth and added:
“Cultivation of the origin can make practitioners stronger, thereby gaining stronger combat power and solving problems directly from the source.
With enough Pei Yuan Dan, the overall strength of the bureau can at least be raised to another level.
This is the best elixir for the middle and lower classes. "
Song Ruyuan nodded, looked at Su Mo opposite, and asked:
"I just don't know what the price of these elixirs is."
Su Mo smiled and said:
"Don't worry, we have cooperated before, and we will definitely not open our mouths to our fellow lions.
I can help you refine these three first-grade elixirs, provided you prepare enough spiritual materials.
I can provide you with five pieces of each material, and you can get a discount if the quantity is large.
But only for this month, because next month I may refine other elixirs. "
From a piece of material, Su Mo can refine ten pills under normal circumstances.
With his current level of elixir refining ability, which is almost at the third level, he can guarantee that there will be no mistakes when making the first-level elixir into an elixir.
In other words, nearly half of a piece of material is income.
And this half can be taken to trade fairs for trading.
Of course, he is not afraid of this information being exposed.
The current transaction itself is a voluntary one, and he has never forced anyone else.
What's more, the fact that he has extra pills only shows that his level of alchemy is high.
If you were a new alchemist, you might not be able to make two positive elixirs from a single set of materials.
"Five?"
Song Ruyuan thought for a while, nodded and said:
"Yes, but our spiritual plant materials may not be enough."
Having said this, he couldn't help but reveal a wry smile:
“The materials we provided to you last time alone account for a quarter of our inventory.
In addition, some materials are also useful to us.
I'm afraid I'll only be able to offer you a maximum of three batches next. "
"Three batches? Three batches is not bad."
Su Mo smiled and replied:
“Anyway, there are many of you, and the spiritual tide is coming soon.
Maybe you will find more spiritual plants soon.
And these three elixirs are not the only ones I can refine. "
As he said this, he took out the Fahua Dan.
Seeing this elixir, Song Ruyuan and Yu Hongfei's eyes couldn't help but condense slightly.
After a long while, Song Ruyuan asked with surprise:
"If I guessed correctly, this should be Fahuadan, right?"
Su Mo nodded, then shook his head:
"This is indeed the Fahua Pill, but it is my improved version. Its effectiveness is only slightly stronger than the original version."
When the two heard this, they could no longer hide the horror in their eyes.
They have all heard of Fahua Dan.
Even other branches once excavated a ruins and obtained several bottles of Fahuadan from the ruins.
This is a treasure that can condense and purify spiritual power!
Taking a fahua pill can greatly increase the chance of breaking through to level 6.
And if it is taken by a fifth-level genius who is successful in cultivation, he can easily cross the threshold of sixth level.
This is an unimaginable strategic resource for the entire Civil Security Bureau!
In the past, only Level 5 people who were loyal and had made great achievements had the chance to get a Lotus Pill.
It is actually because the quantity of Fahuadan is too scarce, so the shipment can only be strictly controlled.
It’s not like the Civil Security Bureau has never thought of replicating Fahua Dan.
However, many of the ingredients of fahuadan are easy to find, but for the most critical main ingredient, there is not even a substitute.
Now Su Mo has developed a more powerful Fahua Pill.
There is no doubt that he must have improved the recipe and found a more suitable substitute!
Song Ruyuan pursed his lips, and for a moment he even wanted to ask what the substitute main material he had found was.
But these thoughts were quickly suppressed by him.
Alchemy prescriptions are basically the foundation of an alchemist's career.
It would definitely not be traded under normal circumstances.
That is to say, the spiritual energy has just recovered, and many of the ingredients for the elixir have not yet grown, and their value has plummeted.
But this kind of elixir that can produce actual elixirs, and the elixirs are extremely powerful, is the real treasure.
But no matter how precious it is, in Song Ruyuan's eyes, it is somewhat less valuable than Su Mo himself.
Not to mention, the main ingredients for alchemy may not be as easy to find as imagined.
Even if the elixir recipe is traded, if the main material is so rare that it is difficult to find, it will be nothing more than a failure in the end.
Song Ruyuan gathered his thoughts and asked:
"Mr. Su, how are you going to trade this Fahua Dan?"
Su Mo listened and asked in slight surprise:
"Why don't you try this elixir first and see the effect?"
Song Ruyuan hesitated and said:
"But the value of Fahuadan is too great..."
"This is my gift to you."
Su Mo interrupted him with a smile.
Song Ruyuan was slightly moved.
Then, he stopped being pretentious and took the elixir in one gulp under Yu Hongfei's eager gaze.
The surging power of the medicine suddenly spread into his body. Song Ruyuan's whole body was visibly red, and there was even a trace of heat rising from the top of his head.
Powerful spiritual energy fluctuations suddenly emerged from his body, seeming to rush in all directions.
But the terrifying fluctuations disappeared with Su Mo's wave of his hand.
After a while, Song Ruyuan let out a long breath, his face full of shock:
"I have only absorbed part of the power of this elixir, and I have already felt a great improvement.
When all the medicine is absorbed, I'm afraid I will be promoted to level 7! "
"This is the supreme medicine that can help people break through the 6th level limit!!"
Yu Hongfei was extremely shocked.
Even Song Ruyuan had a look of shock on his face as he spoke.
At this time, the two people looked at Su Mo with increasingly surprised and incomprehensible eyes.
A 7th level practitioner, if coupled with the status of an alchemist who can produce 7th level in batches.
Then his status may not be measured by a mere cultivation level.
At this moment, they felt extremely lucky that the Civil Security Bureau had good relations with Su Mo.
So much so that it paid off so quickly.
Thinking of the effect of Fahua Dan, both of them couldn't calm down.
After a heated debate, the delivery quantity of Fahuadan was agreed upon.
Song Ruyuan finally got to the point of today:
"Mr. Su, I came to you this time mainly for one thing."
"We have discovered a movable foreign land. The situation is very difficult. I hope we can invite you to explore it together this time."
