Immortal Mansion: With mediocre qualifications, I have no choice but to live forever

As soon as the restrictions on the sword washing pool were opened, Shen Kuo and the others couldn't wait to walk in.

The two young men behind Shen Kuo were both foundation-building practitioners. Before they even approached, they kept looking at Zhou Yiqiao.

"Senior Brother Shen, who are these two?"

When the three of them approached, Zhou Yiqiao asked doubtfully.

Shen Kuo laughed and pushed the two young men behind him in front of him.

"These two are my cousins, Shen Nian and Shen Qing. They took good care of me when I was young."

"The apprenticeship ceremony will be held tomorrow. My two cousins ​​are here with the Shen family's viewing group. They have always wanted to see the appearance of our little junior brother, so senior brother, I brought them with me."

As soon as Shen Kuo finished the introduction, the two of them held their hands and saluted Zhou Yiqiao.

"I've met Senior Zhou."

Zhou Yiqiao was shocked when he heard this. He waved his hands quickly and turned sideways to avoid the courtesy of the two.

"You two are the cousins ​​of Fourth Senior Brother. It's not polite to call you Senior Zhou. If you don't mind, you can call me Yiqiao."

Shen Nian and Shen Qing looked at each other after hearing this, with a flash of panic in their eyes. After a moment, the older Shen Nian was more active and spoke.

"In the world of immortal cultivation, strength is respected. Senior Zhou is a monk at the Golden Core stage. It would be disrespectful for us to call senior by his name."

As soon as Shen Nian said these words, Shen Qing also reacted and quickly agreed, while not forgetting to tease Shen Kuo.

"Senior Zhou, you don't have to be humble."

"Even within our clan, I don't dare to call Shen Kuo my cousin. We call him eldest brother."

Neither Shen Nian nor Shen Qing are fools. After tomorrow, Zhou Yiqiao will be the fifth disciple officially accepted by Elder Bai Gu.

By then, Zhou Yiqiao's status will not be comparable to that of the two direct descendants of the Shen family, so it is more appropriate to refer to him as a junior now.

"Then it's settled."

Seeing this, Zhou Yiqiao stopped being pretentious and smiled heartily and said.

"Since you two call me Senior Zhou, I must also treat you with the courtesy of a senior. Here are two bottles of Purple Spirit Pill that Zhou personally refined. Please taste them."

Shen Kuo on the side was afraid that the two of them would think Zhou Yiqiao was stingy, so he immediately explained.

"My junior brother is a genius in alchemy. The elixirs refined by him are at least 50% more effective than those of the family alchemist!"

Of course, since the two of them have been able to get along well with the early-witted Shen Kuo since they were young, they are certainly not mediocre.

After receiving the elixir given by Zhou Yiqiao and carefully identifying it, their faces showed a look of joy.

"This elixir is really a good thing! Not only is it powerful in its efficacy, it is also extremely mild in properties. It has almost reduced the erysipelas to a negligible level!"

"Yes, if the elixirs refined in the family are of such quality, there will be no need to spend most of the time eliminating erysipelas."

"In this way, I don't know how much time can be saved for practicing other skills."

Shen Nian and Shen Qing kept exaggerating the value of the pills in their hands.

Zhou Yiqiao naturally knew that there was a lot of flattery in their words, but he also heard opportunities in them.

He pondered for a long time, and then tentatively spoke.

"If you two really think this elixir is good, I can sell it to you at a price that is 10% lower than the market price. I wonder if you are willing to buy it?"

"certainly!"

Hearing this, the Shen brothers immediately understood the implication of Zhou Yiqiao's words and quickly asked.

"Senior Zhou, what you are saying is that you can provide large quantities of elixirs of this quality?"

"right!"

Zhou Yiqiao smiled and nodded, saying.

"As long as the spiritual plants are fully prepared, Zhou can refine dozens of furnaces of this second-level elixir every day, turning into nearly a thousand elixirs."

Hearing this, let alone the Shen brothers, even Shen Kuo's eyes showed shock.

An alchemist who can stably produce high-quality second-level elixirs can have a status comparable to that of a Nascent Soul cultivator in the family!

Not to mention, this alchemist is about to become the disciple of Elder Skeleton.

If this is really the case, the three of them should seize this opportunity to tie Zhou Yiqiao and the Shen family together.

In the flash of lightning, the three of them looked at each other and made a decision.

As the leader, Shen Kuo asked seriously.

"If junior brother can really produce elixirs of this quality stably, then it won't be the three of us negotiating with you."

Seeing that the three of them didn't believe him, Zhou Yiqiao chuckled, and with a wave of his hand, he summoned a hundred jade bottles containing purple spirit pills.

"These jade bottles contain purple spirit pills. Fourth senior brother, you can check them at will."

Shen Kuo motioned to the two of them to check, and the two brothers expressed contempt and each opened a jade bottle.

As the cork of the bottle was opened, the rich fragrance of red pills instantly poured into their noses, lifting their spirits.

The two of them checked bottle after bottle, the expressions on their faces becoming more and more shocked.

Seeing this, Shen Kuo asked with a smile.

"How is it? Are you satisfied?"

The two of them nodded in unison and said in unison.

"Satisfied, so satisfied! Senior Zhou's talent for alchemy is truly unparalleled in the world!"

Zhou Yiqiao smiled faintly and was noncommittal.

Seeing this, Shen Kuo asked again.

"Are all elixirs of this quality?"

Shen Nian and Shen Qing nodded and said to each other.

"Even the poorest quality purple spirit pill is 30% better than the pill refined by the family's alchemist!"

When Shen Kuo heard this, he suddenly smiled.

"good very good!"

"Junior Brother Zhou was able to complete the refining of the Yin-Yang Yuan Dan within one month. Senior Brother felt that your attainments in the Dan Dao were extraordinary."

"When I saw him today, it seems that I underestimated him at first!"

Zhou Yiqiao bowed his hands in a salute, neither sad nor happy.

"Fourth Senior Brother, I wonder if the deal with the Shen family counts."

"certainly!"

Shen Kuo nodded, then turned around and gave instructions.

"Two cousins ​​should go find the elders of the clan quickly so that they can discuss the price of the elixir with the junior brother."

When brothers Shen Nian and Shen Qing heard this, they both smiled happily and left quickly.

If this matter can be negotiated, the two brothers can benefit from it many times, so they will naturally work extremely hard.

"Hu Chang is here. When several seniors from the Shen family arrive later, you will take charge of this matter."

"Senior Brother Shen and I come from the same school, so we can make some concessions in terms of price."

As soon as Brother Shen Nian left, Zhou Yiqiao gave instructions to Hu Changzai.

Since he had decided to let Hu Changzai run the alchemy hall in Baigufang City in the future, he naturally wanted to test this person's ability.

If Hu Changzai cannot even complete such a simple negotiation, then there is no need to consider that he will be able to obtain more resources from Zhou Yiqiao in the future.

As soon as Zhou Yiqiao said these words, Hu Changzai's expression changed and he bowed quickly.

"Master, don't worry, my subordinates will do their best!"

Amid the other party's vows, Zhou Yiqiao led Shen Kuo and Qijian into the Shenjian Tower.
