"Phew … My mental strength is too low. Otherwise, I could have refined it to Grade Six or Grade Seven."
In contrast to Lin Miaohan's shock, Qin Yichen seemed to be dissatisfied. He held his aching head and sighed.
Ordinary alchemy was done with the help of an open flame, which was the flame of various materials such as charcoal. However, if one wanted to form a pill, one would need to combine it with mental strength.
In other words, mental strength!
Using mental strength to refine the medicinal liquid was like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
As far as he knew, mental strength cultivation methods were not perfect in this era. Therefore, the progress of mental strength cultivation was extremely slow. Back then, he was gifted, but it took him more than two years to become a true Level One Alchemist.
The reason why elixirs were so valuable in this era was also because the recovery of mental strength was too slow.
In this era, a normal Level One Alchemist could only refine ten elixirs a month. This was only achievable by the best of the best. If an ordinary Alchemist could refine half of it, it would be considered good.
Thousands of years later, Qin Yichen created his own mental strength cultivation method … Spiritual Deity Technique.
Not only could it increase the speed of mental strength cultivation, but it also greatly increased the recovery speed of mental strength. Even after more than ten thousand years, this cultivation method was still unique.
It was also with the help of the Spiritual Deity Technique that Qin Yichen reached the peak of alchemy and became the Alchemy Saint!
"Sister Miaohan, this improved Elemental Rejuvenation Liquid can take effect within a minute. Moreover, the recovery speed will be ten times faster than the Elemental Rejuvenation Liquid on the market …"
Qin Yichen said to Lin Miaohan, who was still in a daze.
"What? It can take effect within a minute? The recovery speed is ten times faster? "
After recovering from her shock, Lin Miaohan stared at him with a suspicious gaze.
The speed of the medicinal effect was not directly related to the quality of the medicinal liquid. The purer the quality, the less impurities, and the better the effect after consumption.
For example, if a Level One martialist consumed a bottle of Level One Vitality Rejuvenating Liquid, he could at most recover 10% of his origin energy. As for a Level Five Vitality Rejuvenating Liquid, he could naturally recover 50% of his origin energy.
If what Qin Yichen said was true, that this improved elemental rejuvenation liquid could take effect after one minute and recover fifty percent of a person's elemental energy at ten times the normal rate … She simply didn't know how to describe this liquid. Even some elixirs didn't have such an effect, right?
If this was true, then this medicinal liquid would definitely become the object that all martial artists would crazily fight over!
The lowest price for a single pill was a hundred silver coins.
Now that she had calculated the cost of these elixirs, it was about eight silver coins. If it really had the effect as he said, the Rejuvenation Elixir, which originally cost one silver coin per bottle, could be sold for ten silver coins or even more. In other words, these ten bottles of elixirs could bring the Lin family more than a hundred silver coins in profit?!
"Sister Miaohan, let's go. I'll bring you to a place."
Knowing that she didn't believe him, Qin Yichen took three bottles of the improved elemental rejuvenation liquid and walked out.
Lin Miaohan was stunned. After confirming that the clear elemental rejuvenation liquid wasn't clear water, she followed him with a heart full of doubts.
Looking at his back, Lin Miaohan felt that this little brother in front of her was a little different.
In the past, because of his lowly status, he didn't like to talk and didn't even dare to look at her. But now, on Qin Yichen's face, she saw confidence and a smile on his face, giving her a very warm and reliable feeling.
Following the familiar streets in his memory, Qin Yichen and Lin Miaohan arrived in front of a loft.
Treasure House.
One of the three largest trading houses in Yuxi City.
The reason why Qin Yichen brought Lin Miaohan here was because after he survived, he had some connections with the Treasure House.
Back then, if it wasn't for the Treasure House taking him in, he probably wouldn't have been able to embark on the path of alchemy.
The kindness of others should be repaid with a gushing spring.
Looking at the familiar plaque, Qin Yichen's mouth curved slightly. He took a step forward and walked in.
As for Lin Miaohan, she stood at the door, looking a little timid and uneasy.
This was the Treasure House!
It was said that the Treasure House would never sell medicinal liquids of less than 30% quality. The cheapest item was worth more than 10 silver coins.
This wasn't something that just anyone could afford.
She had only come here once with her father to buy a bottle of healing liquid. It cost more than 20 silver coins, which made her father's heart ache for a long time.
Touching the three silver coins in her pocket, she couldn't take a step forward.
"Sister Miaohan, why aren't you coming in?"
Seeing that she didn't follow him, Qin Yichen walked back and asked.
"That … I didn't bring any money, so it's better if I don't go in. The things here are too expensive."
Lin Miaohan's face was a little red, looking very embarrassed and uneasy.
Indeed, even if it was the same thing, it would be ten to twenty percent more expensive in the Treasure House.
Of course, the price would also bring benefits. In the Treasure House, you would never be able to buy defective products.
Many medicinal liquids from small pharmacies would have all kinds of problems. For example, medicinal liquids that would take effect in five to six minutes would not have any effect even after ten minutes. But the things that were sold in the Treasure House would never have such a problem.
"Expensive?"
Qin Yichen couldn't help but find it funny and said, "Sister Miaohan, have you forgotten that we're not here to buy things, but to sell things?"
"Alright."
Lin Miaohan seemed to have just remembered. Looking at his confident face, she mustered up her courage and followed him in.
"Hello, may I ask if the two of you are here to buy or sell things?"
When they walked in, a servant girl with a good figure came over and greeted them with a smile. She didn't look down on them because of their clothes.
"We have some things to sell."
Qin Yichen took out a bottle of Vitality Rejuvenation Liquid and waved it in front of her, indicating for her to bring them to the sales area.
"The two of you, please follow me."
Looking at the almost transparent medicinal liquid in the transparent bottle, the servant girl was obviously shocked and became even more respectful.
"Oh, isn't this the eldest daughter of the Lin Family, Lin Miaohan? Why, is your Lin Family so wealthy that you can come to the Treasure House to buy things? "
Just as they were about to walk to the sales area, an ear-piercing voice rang out.
After seeing who it was, not only did Lin Miaohan's face turn ugly, even Qin Yichen's eyes flashed with coldness.
The person who came was the eldest son of the Zhuang Family, Zhuang Muyun.
Speaking of which, the reason why the Zhuang Family was able to suppress the Lin Family was because the head of the Zhuang Family accidentally added an extra herb when refining pills. In the end, not only did it not cause any problems, it even increased the efficacy of the medicinal liquid. Later on, the Zhuang Family sold the formula in exchange for a huge sum of money and rose rapidly.
Therefore, in this world, the most expensive thing wasn't the pills, but … the formula!
According to what Qin Yichen knew, some large families with large businesses would take out a portion of their funds to research new formulas or find ways to increase the efficacy of the medicinal liquid.
Therefore, with the accumulation of time, one's pill refining skills would improve.
However, for many pills with special effects, it wasn't just a matter of adding an extra herb or one less herb. Instead, it was a matter of quantity and control.
For example, if the Vitality Rejuvenation Liquid was added in 250kg of the main herb, the Spirit Origin Grass, then one would have to add in 50 grams of the Yuanyang Herb, 50 grams of the Longhorn Beetle … etc. If there was an imbalance in the weight, it would lead to the failure of the pill refining.
Therefore, when Lin Miaohan saw Qin Yichen carelessly adding some herbs and throwing them into the pill furnace without weighing them, she lost her composure.
What she didn't know was that for someone of Qin Yichen's level, how could there be a need to weigh them?
The Zhuang Clan had indeed hit the jackpot.
