Chapter 41 - Chapter 41: Chapter 41: Visiting Elder Yu, Selling the Elixir (2/2)
The Offering Priests of Yuebaolou were treated exceptionally well, and naturally, the requirements were high.
Elder Yu was disdainful:
“That’s other people. The person I introduce, nobody dares to talk nonsense.”
Lin Jing was at a loss for words. He knew before that Elder Yu’s status in the Yuebaolou was not ordinary.
Now it seemed that he was even more formidable than Lin Jing had thought.
“Elder Yu is mighty.”
Flattered by Lin Jing’s brown-nosing, Elder Yu squinted his eyes and said with a smile:
“Kid, work hard.”
“Your talent for alchemy is exceptional. I believe it won’t take long before you can become a Second -Grade Alchemist.”
After selling the elixir medicines, Lin Jing purchased a batch of materials for concocting elixirs and left the Yuebaolou.
By the time he came out of the Yuebaolou, the sky had already darkened.
The streets had also grown quieter, with only a handful of pedestrians remaining.
Lin Jing found an unoccupied corner to make some slight changes to his appearance before coming out again.
This time, he needed to buy some formulas and materials for Second Rank elixir medicines, which wasn’t very convenient to do at the Yuebaolou.
The place he chose was the small shop where he had sold the Pure Elixir Medicine previously.
“Oh… Sir, you’re here.”
As soon as he entered, the shopkeeper greeted him with a beaming smile.
During this time, Lin Jing had sold elixir medicines here numerous times, making the shopkeeper a tidy profit.
Therefore, the shopkeeper was naturally overjoyed at Lin Jing’s arrival and treated him better than he did other people.
“Shopkeeper, I want to buy a few Second Rank elixir medicine formulas. Besides that, I also need some materials for concocting Second Rank elixir medicines.”
“Sir, have you become a Second Grade Pill Master?” The shopkeeper looked at Lin Jing, momentarily stunned.
“Hmm.” Lin Jing nodded.
Seeing Lin Jing nodded, the shopkeeper immediately reacted, smiling broadly, “Congratulations, sir, on becoming a Second Grade Pill Master.”
“You flatter me, shopkeeper.”
The shopkeeper went on, “Sir, please let me know what formulas and materials you need, our shop has everything.”
Lin Jing said, “For the formulas, I want the Foundation Building Elixir, the Clear Accumulation Elixir, and the Gathering Yuan Pill, just these three for now.”
“As for the materials, I’ll need twenty sets for the Foundation Building, Clear
Accumulation, and Gathering Yuan Elixir.”
After saying that, Lin Jing thought for a moment before adding:
“That’ll be all.”
“Alright, no problem,” the shopkeeper said, stroking his chin and noding.
“Sir, please wait a moment, I’ll go fetch these for you now,” said the shopkeeper as he walked towards the back of the shop.
In just a short while, the shopkeeper returned.
“Sir, these are the materials you asked for. Please check to see if the amount is correct,” he said, placing three bags of materials on the counter and pushing them towards Lin Jing.
Lin Jing opened the bags, checked the contents, and nodded.
Then the shopkeeper took out three formulas from his Storage Bag and handed them to Lin Jing.
Lin Jing casually looked over the formulas, finding no issues.
“How many Spirit Stones will all these cost?” Lin Jing asked the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper replied, “Second Rank elixir materials are much more expensive than First Rank ones, as I’m sure you’re aware, sir.”
“Of course, I understand. Please feel free to tell me, shopkeeper,” said Lin Jing.
“Sir, the three formulas you requested, along with the materials, total up to 1,200 Lower Grade Spirit Stones.”
“Hmm… okay, that’s a fair price,” Lin Jing said.
He then took out the Spirit Stones and completed the transaction.
The items Lin Jing wanted would probably cost about the same even in the Yuebaolou.
Therefore, the price the shopkeeper offered wasn’t expensive.
After all, the shopkeeper wanted to maintain a long-term cooperation with Lin Jing, so it was unlikely he would overcharge him at this juncture..
