Tianci's fist collided with Laijiu's fist, and the sound of cracking bones could be heard in his ears. Lai Jiu's body knocked over the chair behind him, and his back hit the wall so hard that he almost lost his breath.
The sound of the two people fighting alerted the servants in the alchemy room. They came out one by one and crowded at the door of Lai Jiu's room. At this time, Zhou Miao was also standing at the door, his eyes shining.
At this time, Na Lai Jiu finally breathed a sigh of relief. The pain in his arm made him grimace when he moved slightly.
"Steward, you..."
"Are you deducting a Body Tempering Pill from each of them every month?"
Tianci pointed with a sullen face to the nine servants crowded behind him at the door. When the nine servants heard this, their faces showed joy. But Lai Jiu glared at them fiercely, with a look of malice in his eyes. But I knew in my heart that those people must have told Tianci about this matter. I wanted to deny it but couldn't, so I said in a solemn voice:
"yes!"
Tianci shouted: "Hand it over!"
Lai Jiu hesitated for a moment, but finally reached into his chest, took out a jade bottle from his arms and handed it to Tianci. Tianci took the jade bottle and threw it to Zhou Miao behind him without looking at it:
"You split the body tempering elixir inside."
Zhou Miao took the jade bottle and hurriedly bowed to Tianci and said, "Thank you, steward."
"Thank you, steward!" The rest of the people also hurriedly saluted God. Tianci waved his hand, looked at Zhou Miao and said, "From now on, you will take Lai Jiu's place."
Zhou Miao's face was filled with ecstasy, and she hurriedly saluted again: "Thank you, steward."
Tianci's expression became solemn: "Zhou Miao, remember this. If you dare to be like Lai Jiu, Lai Jiu's today will be your tomorrow."
"Zhou Miao doesn't dare!"
"Steward, you can't do this!" Lai Jiu said in a panic.
"From today on, you are no longer a member of the alchemy room. Take your things and get out."
"Steward..."
"Kick him out." Tianci shouted in a low voice.
The nine handymen immediately rushed in, drove Lai Jiu out, and threw his luggage outside. Lai Jiu's cultivation level is not much higher than that of the nine people. Now he has a broken arm. How can he be able to defeat the nine people
Moreover, these nine people were still plotting against him secretly. In the end, Lai Jiu had to run out on his own initiative to avoid being tricked by those nine people in secret.
The movement here naturally attracted the attention of people in the alchemy shop. Li Shan on the second floor stood behind the railing in the corridor and looked down, with a look of regret in his eyes, and thought to himself:
"This Tianci is loyal to Wu Zongdian, has a kind and honest nature, but is not pedantic, and has his own principles for doing things. It's a pity that his qualifications are too poor, alas..."
He waved to a person, and when that person came to him, he said, "Let Lai Jiu join the herb collection team of the Alchemy Shop."
"Yes!" The man saluted and turned around to leave.
The night passed.
Tianci woke up from bed and just finished washing when he heard a knock on the door. Tianci opened the door and saw Zhou Miao standing outside with a food box. Tianci turned and walked towards the house. Zhou Miao followed behind, put the food box on the table and took out the food inside.
"Steward, please take it easy. I'll come back to take care of it later."
"Yeah!" Tianci nodded, and Zhou Miao withdrew.
Tianci was thinking while eating, and decided to try alchemy today. Anyway, there are ten alchemy rooms here, and they are all unused every day. Moreover, I have saved some money in the past ten years. After dinner, I will go to the front to buy some herbs and try to refine the body tempering pill first.
With something on his mind, Tianci finished the meal in three mouthfuls. Without waiting for Zhou Miao to clean it up, he took out all his banknotes from the package on the bed, counted them, and found that there were more than a thousand taels. He put the banknotes in his arms and pushed the door open and walked out.
"Good job!"
"Good job!"
"..."
I saw the handyman disciples along the way. Compared with the night before, the look of those handymen towards Tianci was different. Their respect also included gratitude and closeness.
However, Tianci was not interested in talking to them at this time. He just nodded and hurried to the front counter.
"Hey, isn't this a gift from heaven?"
A middle-aged man behind the counter smiled at Tianci. He was Gong Tianzhen, the shopkeeper of the front shop. But there was something false in that smile. In fact, in the Xianyue Kingdom Wuzong Hall, except for Jian Mo's confidants like Li Shan, other people did not have a good impression of Tianci. In their opinion, Tianci is wasting the resources of Wuzong Palace. However, Tianci is now a manager here. Although his status is not as good as his position as the shopkeeper of the front shop, who knows if Jian Mo will call Tianci back to him one day
"Uncle Gong, I want to buy some herbs for refining body tempering pills."
Gong Tianzhen looked stunned for a moment, and asked with some suspicion: "Tianci, do you want to make elixirs?"
"Um!"
"Can you make pills?"
Tianci's face turned red: "No, I want to try."
Gong Tianzhen's eyes flashed with a hint of disdain, but she still said with a smile:
"How many copies do you want to buy?"
"How much does it cost?"
"Fifty taels a piece."
Tianci then went out and put the five hundred taels of silver notes on the counter and said, "Ten copies! Well, I want another larger jade bottle."
Gong Tianzhen smiled and said, "I'll give you a jade bottle as a gift."
"Thank you!" Tianci quickly thanked him.
"You're welcome!" A hint of sneer flashed in Gong Tianzhen's eyes: "When you refine the elixir, just entrust Uncle Gong to sell it."
"hey-hey… "
Tianci smiled honestly and watched Gong Tianzhen wrap up ten herbs and put a jade bottle on the counter. He picked it up and thanked her again before returning to the alchemy room.
"Zhou Miao!" Tianci shouted standing in the corridor of the alchemy room.
"Hey, here we come!" Zhou Miao hurriedly came out of an alchemy room, holding a broom in his hand and said, "Steward, what are your orders?"
"Is the alchemy room free recently?"
"No.9!"
"Um!"
Tianci nodded and walked towards the alchemy room No. 9 carrying the herbs and jade bottle. Zhou Miao hurriedly dropped the broom, stepped forward and took the herbal bag from Tianci's hand and said:
"Steward, I'll do it. What are you here...herbal medicine?"
"Um!"
Zhou Miao's eyes flashed with surprise: "Steward, you... know how to make elixirs?"
Tianci hesitated for a moment, and he really didn't know how to explain that he suddenly knew how to make alchemy, so he said:
"I've learned it before, but this is my first time making alchemy."
There was a sudden realization in Zhou Miao's eyes, and she thought that Tianci had studied with Jian Mo before, and she felt envious in her heart.
"After all, he is someone who has followed Palace Master Jian!
"Okay, don't disturb me!"
