Chapter 57: Always Friends

The sales assistant quickly brought over a set of drug refining equipment. Mo Wuji had seen such equipment countless times before. In fact, he had been among the few who used the most premier equipments back on Earth.
The moment the Eternal Evergreen was brought over, Mo Wuji could tell that it was good stuff; it was far better than the trashy equipment back in Cheng Yu. Even though its features were not the same as those on Earth, Mo Wuji actually felt that it was more suitable for refining drugs.
“Your Eternal Evergreen has arrived. It looks quite advanced,” Shen Ling spoke in a disapproving tone.
It would be fine if Mo Wuji had a lot of money. However, she knew that Mo Wuji did not have that much money. As a person who was not wealthy, not only was he staying in a grand suite which cost 10 thousand gold per month, he even spent 370 thousand on useless drug refining equipment. It was simply preposterous!
She did not believe that Mo Wuji would be successful, albeit in drug or pill refining. Not everyone could be a drug refiner; one needed knowledge as well as talent to be one.
Mo Wuji thoroughly checked through his equipment and said casually, “I already have the Immortal Mortal Technique. I should call this equipment: Basic Drug Refining Kit. If not, people would get jealous.”
Shen Lian almost laughed out loud. This drug refining equipment and that Basics to Cultivation would call for jealousy?
“Sister Shen Lian, can you help me bring this equipment back to the hotel? I still need to get some ingredients.”
Mo Wuji saw Shen Lian’s face revealing an unhappy expression and he did not continue talking. He hurriedly took out a one thousand gold note and said, “If I return late, Sister Lian can take this and have a good meal. You don't have to wait for me.”
Shen Lian did not even have money for a meal. When Mo Wuji took the note out, she immediately snatched it and kept it. The reason she followed Mo Wuji was to find a chance to borrow money from him. She couldn't have been waiting and following him for meals all the time, right?
One thousand gold was enough to last her for some time.
After sending Shen Lian off, Mo Wuji started exploring and shopping for ingredients.
Chang Luo was the royal empire of Xing Han Empire. As long as you had money, there was nothing you couldn't buy in Chang Luo.
At the end of the day, Mo Wuji returned to Tian Luo Hotel with a huge bag. He purchased enough ingredients to brew 50 batches of the channel opening solution.
The price of the ingredients he required wasn't high, so he bought as much as he could. For instance, for lingzhi fungi, he tried to purchase those above 200 years old.
For lingzhi, anything below a thousand years in age would not be considered a spiritual ingredient. Furthermore, a thousand year lingzhi itself was graded as a low grade spiritual ingredient, and wouldn't cost much.
Additionally, he bought a whole pile of dried rations. The worst thing that could happen while refining drugs is interruptions and disruptions in refining. Thus, it would be quite some time before he would actually leave his room.
When he returned to the suite, he did not see Shen Lian. Shen Lian had put his equipment in the living room.
Mo Wuji did not need to know much about Shen Lian to know that she must be from great origins. Naturally, Mo Wuji would not try to find out what she was doing or intended to do.
Returning to his room, Mo Wuji immediately started the concoction of the channel opening solution.
Mo Wuji had concocted tens of batches of channel opening solution before. Thus, it was as simple as flipping his palm to him.
For a few consecutive days, Mo Wuji did not leave his room. Shen Lian could smell herbal smells emanating from Mo Wuji's room and knew that he was refining drugs. As a cultivator, she knew that it was taboo to disturb others whether it was in cultivation or drug refining. Furthermore, she was not familiar with Mo Wuji, so she wasn't really concerned about what went on throughout the night in Mo Wuji's room.
After every three days, Mo Wuji would take a break and go out for a stroll before returning to his work. In such a manner, Mo Wuji spent approximately 20 days to finish all 50 batches of his ingredients.
In these 20 days, he lost a lot of weight. With 50 batches of ingredients, he managed to concoct 46 bottles of channel opening solution.
