Supreme Soaring Immortal
Chapter 77 Refining Dan
Tianci’s fist collided with Lai Jiu’s fist, and the sound of cracking bones rang out in their ears. Lai Jiu’s body was knocked over the chair behind him, and his back hit the wall hard, nearly breaking the wall.
The fighting sounds of the two alarmed the workers in the alchemy room. One by one they rushed out, crowding around the door of Lai Jiu’s room. Presently Zhou Miao also stood at the door and his eyes were shining.
At this time, Lai Jiu slowly breathed, when he moved his arm a little, he grimaced in pain.
“Manager, you…”
“You’re taking their refining dan each month?”
Tianci had a calm look on his face, one finger pointing behind him to the crowd at the doorway. When the 9 workers heard, a cheerful expression appeared on their faces. Lai Jiu viciously glared at them, his eyes filled with bitter resentment. But in his heart he knows that those workers must’ve informed Tianci. He can’t rely on them, then harshly said:
“Yes!”
Tianci then yelled: “Hand it over!”
Lai Jiu hesitated, then finally put his hand into his chest, took a jade bottle out and handed it to Tianci. Tianci took the jade bottle and glanced at it, not checking it, then he threw it behind him to Zhou Miao, and said:
“You divide the refining dan inside.”
Zhou Miao took the jade bottle, hurriedly facing Tianci, he gave a deep bow: “Many thanks Manager.”
“Many thanks Manager!” The rest of the workers also hurried to give a bow to Tianci. Tianci waved his hand and looked at Zhou Miao and said:
“In the future, you will take over Lai Jiu’s work.”
Zhou Wei was ecstatic, hurriedly bowed again: “Thank you Manager.”
Tianci’s expression became solemn: “Zhou Miao, you bear in mind. If you dare to be like Lai Jiu, Lai Jiu’s today is your tomorrow.”
“Zhou Miao dare not!”
“Manager, you cannot do this!” Lai Jiu said with a fl.u.s.tered tone.
“From now on, you are no longer a worker of the Dan shop, take your things and roll.”
“Manager…”
“Drive him out.” Tianci said in a low voice.
The nine workers immediately poured in, driving Lai Jiu out, throwing his baggage outside. Lai Jiu’s repair is not much higher than the nine, he also broke his arm. Where dare he still resist the 9 men?
Moreover, the 9 men still had dark intentions against him. In the end, Lai Jiu had to take the initiative to run out, lest the 9 men would continue to move against him.
The movement here is naturally noticed by the people inside the Dan shop. On the second floor behind the railing stood Li Shan. He looked down at the bottom of the corridor. His eyes flashed with regret, and he secretly said in his heart:
“This Tianci is loyal and devoted to Wuzong Temple, has a good nature, not corrupt, and has his own principles. Unfortunately, his qualifications are too poor, alas…”
He beckoned a person over, waiting for that person to come to the front and said: “Let Lai Jiu join the Dan shops medicine gathering team.”
“Yes!” The man bowed then left.
One night pa.s.sed.
Tianci woke up from bed, just washed up, then heard a knock at the door. Tianci opened the door, then saw Zhou Miao with a food box standing outside. Tianci turned to the room, walking inside. Zhou Miao followed, he put the food box on the table, taking the food inside out.
“Manager, you eat slowly, and I’ll tidy it up later.”
“En!” Tianci nodded and Zhou Miao withdrew.
While Tianci is eating, he is also thinking, he decided to try refining dan today. Anyway, there are ten refining rooms, everyday most of them are left unused and in these 10 years he’s also acc.u.mulated quite a bit of money. After eating he will go to the front to buy some herbs, first try to make refining body pills.
Now that theres something on his mind, Tianci finished eating his food in three mouthfuls. Not waiting for Zhou Miao to clean up, he took out his own silver banknotes from the bundle in his bed. He counted it, and there were more than a thousand. He tucked the silver banknotes in his arms and walked out.
“h.e.l.lo Manager!”
“Good morning Manager!”
“…………”
Along the way to see those workers, compared to a night ago, those workers att.i.tude towards Tianci is truly different. There is respect, grat.i.tude and closeness.
However, now Tianci did not have the interest of talking to them.
Just nodded and hurried to the front counter.
“Hey, isn’t this Tianci?”
A middle-aged man behind the counter smiled at Tianci. It was the shopkeeper Gong Tianzhen. It’s just that his smile is a little insincere. In fact, in Wuzong Temple in Crescent Moon Kingdom, besides Jian Mo’s aide Li Shan, other people have a bad impression of Tianci. In their view, Tianci is wasting the resources of Wuzong Temple. Today Tianci is manager, although his status is not as good as he this shopkeeper, but who knows if Jian Mo will one day recall Tianci back to her side?
“Uncle Gong, I’d like to buy some herbal medicine to make refining body dan.”
Gong Tianzhen’s look is surprised, doubtfully asking: “Tianci, you want to refine?”
“En!”
“You can refine dan?”
The face of Tianci is red: “No, I want to try.”
Gong Tianzhen’s eyes flashed with a faint hint of disdain, but he still smiled insincerely and said:
“How many sets do you want to buy?”
“How much is a set?”
“Fifty taels.”
Tianci took out 500 silver banknotes on the counter and said, “Ten sets! And, I’d like a big jade bottle.”
“I’ll give you a jade bottle.” He smiled and said.
“Thank you!” Tianci quickly said thank you.
“You’re welcome!” Gong Tianzhen’s eyes flashed with disdain: “When you have made your dan pills, you can entrust it to Uncle Gong to sell it.”
“Hahaha…”
Tianci simply laughed, watching Gong Tianzhen wrapping up ten sets of medicinal herbs and putting a jade bottle on the counter. He once again expressed thanks, returning to the alchemy room.
“Zhou Miao!” Tianci stood in the corridor near the alchemy room and shouted.
“Here, coming!” Zhou Miao hurried out from an alchemy room, with a broom in his hand: “Manager, what do you need?”
“These days, what alchemy room is free?”
“Number 9!”
“En!”
Tianci nodded, then carried the herbs and jade bottle toward the 9th alchemy room. Zhou Miao hurriedly dropped the broom, and went forward to take the herb bag from the hands of Tianci.
“Manager…this is….herbs?”
“En!”
Zhou Miao’s eyes flashed with a little surprise: “Manager, you…….Can you refine dan?”
Tianci hesitated for a moment, in his mind he really didn’t know how to explain his sudden understanding of dan refining, and said:
“I’ve learned it before, but this is the first time to refine.”
Zhou Miao suddenly understood, Tianci must’ve learned it with Jian Mo, in his heart a feeling of envy arose.
Its the man who once followed Lord Jian Mo after all!
“Ok, don’t disturb me!”
Just one chapter today.
