I Am A Corpse Collector In The World Of Cultivating Immortals

Chapter 13: The Dao of Wealth in Alchemy

Chen Shen did not lie; he did indeed send a letter to his family in Cang Country.

However, the cost was quite expensive, with a single letter requiring fifteen low-grade spirit stones.

"I sent a letter in the summer and it only cost ten spirit stones. Why did the price suddenly increase?" Chen Shen was somewhat dissatisfied.

The staff member in charge of reception smiled and explained, "Well, you see, in the winter, the snow accumulates deeply, creating a vast expanse of white that makes it easy to lose one's way. Additionally, there are many avalanches along the way, which increases the danger."

"But in the summer, it's easy to encounter Robin Hood-like figures," Chen Shen retorted inwardly and left.

"To my loving mother, simple father, rough elder brother, gentle second brother, melancholic fourth sister, green tea fifth sister, younger brother number six, and adorable little sister, your handsome Chen Shen is doing well. Please do not worry!"

This was Chen Shen's summary of his unseen family members in his memory.

He didn't write much in the letter, only reporting his safety. Saying more would only increase their longing and sadness.

If nothing unexpected happened, he would stay in the Cangwu Immortal Sect for many years.

The original owner of his body had received training. The Cangwu Immortal Sect was located in the southern corner of the Hundred Nations, with only three major sects nearby. Among them, the Cangwu Immortal Sect and another demonic sect were the two strongest, with the third one being slightly weaker.

If he were to leave the sect, Chen Shen would have to become a Gold Core True Sovereign, or at least be on par with the strongest True Sovereign in the sect, before he dared to venture out.

After all, this place was just one of the Hundred Nations, and in other powerful countries, there were definitely more formidable immortal sects in control.

In case certain important figures liked to play the game of traveling incognito and experiencing the mortal world.

Therefore, his own strength had to be strong enough to protect himself and become a capable passerby.

After sending the letter, he disguised himself in an uninhabited place and changed into a white robe.

In the alchemy hall officially established by the Cangwu Immortal Sect.

"Respected guest, do you need to buy some pills?" the front desk staff warmly asked Chen Shen.

"Come here!" Chen Shen approached the beautiful female attendant and whispered a few words in her ear.

Soon, Chen Shen was escorted to a private room, and the service staff served him a cup of excellent hot tea.

Before long, the manager of the alchemy hall walked in.

"Guest, are you here to sell a large quantity of pills?" the manager sat across from Chen Shen and smiled.

"I have fifty Heaven-defying Pills, two hundred Qi Gathering Pills, and one hundred Blood Qi Pills. Please give me a price," Chen Shen got straight to the point and didn't waste time with small talk.

"It depends on the quality of your pills, esteemed guest," the manager smiled.

"Different quality means different prices. The higher the quality, the higher the price we offer. Of course, as long as the guest's pills are not problematic, our alchemy hall will not let the guest suffer a loss."

For pills like the Blood Qi Pill and Heaven-defying Pill, the number produced in a single furnace is generally controlled to be within ten. This is the most efficient way of pill refinement. It's not that the more materials used, the more pills produced, and the better the quality.

Of course, pill masters and alchemy experts can naturally control larger quantities and produce higher quality pills, but generally, they still follow the rule of ten pills per furnace.

Even if the number of pills refined is controlled, it doesn't necessarily mean that ten pills will be produced. Those who are not skilled may only produce five or six pills in a furnace, or even fewer.

But the quality is definitely not a problem, with each pill being a top-quality product.

What? You only refine one pill per furnace?

These are not immortal pills, but pills used by Qi Refining cultivators.

For example, the Qi Gathering Pill requires materials worth twenty spirit stones for a single furnace, and each pill is sold for ten spirit stones. And you only refine one pill.

If you think like this, you will definitely be laughed at.

So, losing money is your own business, please don't tell this ingenious idea to others.

Speaking of prices.

Whether it's the Dantang or the Danbao Pavilion, the price of the acquired elixirs is definitely lower than selling them individually.

Like ordinary alchemy disciples, they can only open a few furnaces with limited materials, so they definitely want to maximize the value of the elixirs and sell them in the market themselves.

But Chen Shen doesn't want to waste time and is easily targeted by malicious people, which goes against his principles.

He can only lower the price and sell them all at once to the Dantang.

"You check the quality." Chen Shen threw out a storage bag and added, "Remember to return the storage bag to me."

Before the steward could stabilize it, he suddenly said again,

"Oh, by the way, whether you check the elixirs by eating them, licking them, or smelling them, remember to include it in the account, it's not a free inspection."

The steward.

He is trained to maintain a smiling face in any situation: "We also have alchemists in the Dantang who can check them. There is no need to eat or lick them."

The steward remained calm, but emphasized the phrase "no need to lick".

Soon, an alchemist specializing in inspecting the quality of elixirs walked in, a middle-aged man.

"Every pill is of excellent quality, no problem!" After inspecting them, the alchemist was somewhat surprised. His gaze towards Chen Shen changed, filled with admiration.

An alchemist who can sell hundreds of high-quality elixirs at once is not far from being a master.

After determining the price, the steward immediately took the elixirs from the storage bag and put the spirit stones in.

The purchase price for the Creation Pill, worth fifty spirit stones, was forty-five; for the Qi Gathering Pill and Blood Qi Pill, it was seven each.

Not bad, Chen Shen can accept it.

"Guest, please verify if the number of spirit stones is correct." The steward glanced deeply at Chen Shen and left.

...

The shop that sells precious materials from heaven and earth is also officially established by the Immortal Sect. It is very large. Chen Shen, as a distinguished guest, purchases materials in a private room.

Moreover, he changes his appearance and buys materials in batches, so the officials won't pay special attention.

What's special is that the Green Fox disguise is lying idle in the underground palace and he doesn't dare to put the storage bag there.

Chen Shen exchanged all the spirit stones for materials and then returned to Heaven Burial Mountain to refine pills. After a few days, he sold them to the Dantang and Danbao Pavilion, selling about three hundred pills each time, not too many.

But if someone happens to be bored and checks the extremely large transaction records, they will find that within half a month,

Men, women, old, and young, wearing different robes, wearing different masks, and speaking with different accents, each time they sell about three hundred pills, and they are all Blood Qi Pills, Creation Pills, and Qi Gathering Pills.

Oh? Why? Why does Chen Shen only refine these three types of pills?

Of course, it's because he is so skilled at refining them that he doesn't want to bother with other pill formulas.

Speaking of which, if by chance, both the Danbao Pavilion and the shop selling precious materials from heaven and earth have a bored person who sees these strange records.

And if, by chance, the records of the three shops are shared and these three bored people check them, then they might discover that these people might be the same person?

Of course, the probability is too small. Chen Shen won't be that unlucky.

After several large-scale pill refining sessions, he himself got tired of refining pills.

But it's finally over. He earned about twenty thousand spirit stones and can quietly cultivate for a while.

The goal is to reach the eighth level of Qi Refining!

Ps: This chapter is not up to standard. I won't dare to do it next time!
