metaverse evolution.

The Adventure Hall was not big to begin with, and now that Chu Fei (pharmacist) had taken up a space in it, it became even more crowded. But neither the adventurers nor the staff had any objections.

Potions are essential resources for cultivation and are the life-saving trump card during adventures. No matter how many potions there are, they cannot meet the market demand.

It is also because of this that the price of medicine remains high.

But there is one exception. Usually, new pharmacists will sell at low prices. Even if the price will increase in the future, at least the price will be low temporarily.

Everyone's money is earned with their lives, so the price of this potion can be as low as possible. Moreover, the four potions Chu Fei gave in the second task were not simple.

Although no one knows about the incomplete version of the soul-raising potion, everyone still knows about the primary mind-nourishing potion and the advanced resurrection potion.

There is also the advanced Zi Yang Strengthening Medicine. The most commonly used one is the 'Zi Yang Strengthening Medicine', which is a 10.0 advanced medicine. The efficacy is as the name of the medicine, it has the effect of consolidating the foundation, and has significant effects on healing wounds, inhibiting deformities, strengthening the body, etc.

This "advanced" Zi Yang Gu Ben medicine is probably an upgraded version of Zi Yang Gu Ben medicine.

The primary nourishing spirit potion and the advanced resurrection potion are both 11.0 advanced potions. I think this "Advanced Zi Yang Strengthening Foundation Potion" is also 11.0, as is the soul-raising potion at the back.

"Please be quiet!" Chu Fei sat down and spoke softly. His voice was not loud, but everyone quickly quieted down.

Chu Fei: "If you have any questions, you can ask them one by one. There is no rush. Come one by one. There is no limit on the number of questions each person can ask. Until all the questions are answered clearly."

I didn't want the staff to be the first to ask, "Master, can I sell the potion in the Adventure Hall?"

"Of course. But how about we talk about this later?"

"Okay, okay, thank you, Master." The staff left with many thanks. Don't think it's an exaggeration. As a worker, as long as you can get an answer like Chu Fei, it is enough to get a promotion and a raise.

Then an adventurer asked: "Master, how much do you charge for refining the potion?"

"For common potions, after they are successfully refined, we will take a 20% commission. The quality is guaranteed to be above 80%. For uncommon potions, we will take a 30% commission based on the difficulty. The actual charges will be directly deducted from the potion.

For example, a bottle of advanced resurrection potion is 10 ml; but one portion of medicinal materials can usually make about one liter of potion, which is 100 bottles. So when I deliver it, I will give you 80 bottles of potion."

Adventurer: "What if the refining fails? It is said that there is a chance of failure when refining a potion."

Chu Fei: "For medicinal materials of 10.0 and below, if you fail, I will give you cash according to the 'market price' of the medicinal materials. The specific market price will be based on the price in the Adventure Hall.

But you can also buy the medicine from me at the reference price, which can be considered as compensation."

Hearing Chu Fei's answer, the other party was overjoyed.

If calculated according to the so-called reference price, the value of the medicinal materials is approximately one-tenth of the value of the corresponding finished medicine, or even lower - this refers to 100% quality medicines.

But most medicines are qualified if they can reach 80% quality, and excellent if they can reach 90%. So generally speaking, the gross profit of a medicine made from a herb is between 300% and 500%.

But only pharmacists can enjoy this profit. For most people, they can only sell the medicinal materials and then use the money to buy medicine.

Medicines on the market are not sold at the so-called reference price. It is not a big deal if the actual selling price increases by 50%.

Think about the resurrection potion that Chu Fei had previously refined, which was 11.0 high-level. Generally, the reference price of 11.0 high-level potions is 8 million, and the price of special potions can increase a lot. Chu Fei wanted to set the price at 22 million, which seemed a bit high; in the end, Ren Qingyun set the price at 30 billion, and the price was increased to billion at one point in the later period.

Because of this situation, the other party almost jumped up in excitement when he heard Chu Fei's answer. According to Chu Fei's rules, even if the potion refining fails, there is still profit! That's why Chu Fei said it was a compensation!
In fact, not only the adventurer who asked the question, but all the adventurers around him became excited.

This is also one of Chu Fei's goals. Only when others can make money, and make steady profits, can they provide himself with a large amount of medicinal materials.

With medicinal materials, Chu Fei can generate more profits.

Chu Fei wanted to create an impression for everyone: as long as you cooperate with me, you will not lose money, it is just a matter of making big or small profits.

In fact, in the pharmaceutical refining market, the bitter fruit of failure is often borne entirely by the customer, while the pharmacist pays nothing - it's good enough if he doesn't charge you for labor fees.

For this reason, people usually sell the herbs and then buy the medicine.

The reason why Chu Fei dared to do this was that he had absolute confidence in his ability to refine medicine.

Even Ren Qingyun praised Chu Fei's alchemy skills, which were far beyond those of a half-baked alchemist.

Others can only refine 80% quality potions, but Chu Fei can refine 100% quality potions. 80% potions are only half the price of 100% potions, or even lower.

In this way, Chu Fei can also make more concessions.

However, considering that doing so would easily arouse the anger of the entire alchemist community, Chu Fei decided to rely on the Adventure Hall on the one hand, and on the other hand, he was also prepared to use a proxy to refine the potion instead of mass production by himself.

Chu Fei was very skilled at refining medicine for others. He had done it this way in Hongsong City.

The atmosphere around them became heated, and a 11.0 practitioner squeezed in front of Chu Fei, "Master, how do you calculate the 11.0 potion?"

Chu Fei hesitated for a moment and said, "The commission rate remains unchanged. However, for the 11.0 potion, I can only guarantee an 80% success rate.

Considering the extremely high value of 11.0 herbs, I would be at risk of losing money if I were to process them the same way I would with 10.0 medicine.

Of course, since everyone trusts me, I can't let everyone lose money. How about this, if the 11.0 medicinal material refining fails, I will compensate you at 80% of the market price, or you can use this money to buy other potions from me at the reference price, how about that? "

"Master is so generous!"

Another adventurer asked: "Master, what are the Advanced Purple Sun Strengthening Potion and Soul-raising Potion?"

Chu Fei: "The Advanced Ziyang Strengthening Potion is the 11.0 version of the Ziyang Strengthening Potion, and the efficacy is basically similar.

As for the soul-raising potion...it's a poison!"

Everyone:...

Chu Fei explained slowly: "The Soul-raising Potion is a recently appeared potion. Its main ingredient is the same as the Ziyang Strengthening Potion and the Primary Nourishing Spirit Potion, which is Ziyang Grass, but it requires high-quality Ziyang Grass.

The real soul-raising potion can reach 12.0, and can assist the 12.0 practitioners in their practice, boost their spirits, and improve their mental agility, etc. However, the soul-raising potion has a characteristic that it cannot be stopped. It is a bit like a drug.

I asked someone to steal... ahem... I accidentally got some recipes for the Soul-Upgrading Potion, and with my continuous research, I can now replicate the Soul-Upgrading Potion of Level 11.0.

The efficacy has been tested, and it is similar to the real soul-raising potion, but with an additional benefit. If it can break through 12.0, it will automatically stop being addicted. "

Chu Fei raised his neck and said unyieldingly, "If you ask me, this is the real Soul-Upgrade Potion. As long as you break through 12.0, the addiction will be automatically eliminated. The conditions for quitting the original Soul-Upgrade Potion are unknown."

When everyone saw Chu Fei's performance, they had only one thought in their minds: the master's recipe for the soul-raising potion was probably stolen, and it must be missing some important auxiliary medicinal materials. However, when they heard that 12.0 could automatically cure drug addiction, many people were tempted.

Chu Fei explained in detail the efficacy and addictiveness of the soul-enhancing potion.

Speaking of which, this so-called incomplete version of the Soul-raising Potion was indeed optimized by Chu Fei. It didn't have the domineering power of the 12.0 Soul-raising Potion, but it also didn't have that strong drug addiction.

The Soul-raising Potion is a poison, and one that is made based on the theory of 'super nutrition'. It has really good effects, but also really serious side effects.

Everyone argued for a long time, and finally, at everyone's request, Chu Fei wrote a list - Chu Fei dictated while the on-site staff were busy.

Common potions of 10.0 and below, common potions of 11.0, and the main drugs and some auxiliary drugs needed for all potions - but potions and medicinal materials are not one-to-one corresponding, don't think of getting the prescription through the task introduction!

Any medicine that is not on the list is considered an uncommon medicine and the commission is more than 30%. The specific details will be discussed in person.

At the end of the list, Chu Fei added a sentence: Prioritize advanced potions, and in principle only accept orders above 10.0.

The reason I added this sentence is because the scene was so hot beyond imagination.

Chu Fei didn't want to waste a lot of time and energy on low-level potions. Moreover, many pharmacists relied on low-level potions to survive. If he intervened too much, it would cause public outrage.

But even so, there were still many people who wanted to place orders. Chu Fei asked them to go to the front desk to register first.

Chu Fei came to the large living room behind the Adventure Hall. The person in charge of the Adventure Hall personally met Chu Fei... and Wu Yong.

This was a middle-aged man in military uniform, who looked quite elegant, standing at the door and greeting him with a smile. With just one glance at him, Chu Fei concluded that his cultivation level was around mid-12.0.

On the contrary, the other party could not see that Chu Fei was suppressing his cultivation.

Chu Fei came over, and the man smiled and said, "My name is Jiang Longyu, and I'm in charge of the Adventure Hall here at Liangshan Pass. What's your name, Master?"

Chu Fei sighed and said, "Director Jiang, do you think I am willing to reveal my identity?"

Jiang Longyu: ...

The staff member next to him laughed halfway and quickly covered his mouth.

Chu Fei: "My master raised me to adulthood, but he himself was severely deformed. In order to suppress my master's deformation, I secretly learned a lot of things over the years and was hunted down everywhere.

Now I feel I have enough money, so I plan to go inland to see if there is a way to solve my master's distortion."

Jiang Longyu glanced at Chu Fei, then at Wu Yong, and nodded slightly, "I see. Master, please take a seat. I am sorry for being so presumptuous."

Chu Fei helped Wu Yong sit down first, and then he sat down himself. This was a typical example of a loving father and a filial son.

Seeing Chu Fei's actions, Jiang Longyu's eyes flashed with admiration. The Yanhuang civilization still attaches importance to filial piety, even if it is just superficial work. After all, some people are too lazy to even do superficial work.

After sitting down, Jiang Longyu asked: "Master, why did you choose us? You know, the Mercenary Guild, Mercenary Hall, Adventurer Guild, etc. are all more impressive and famous than our old Adventure Hall."

Chu Fei smiled: "This is the end of the world. In the end of the world, the so-called grandeur, luxury, fame, etc. are all superficial. The most important thing is to survive. As far as I know, the Adventure Hall is the only guild organization with a stable inheritance.

The rest of the mercenary guilds, mercenary halls, adventurer guilds, mercenary houses, mercenary federations, adventurer federations, etc., are all dominated by a cycle of succession, with serious internal management conflicts and frequent changes of shareholders.

In terms of stability and reliability, Adventure Hall is the most trustworthy. "

Jiang Longyu laughed, "Well said! On behalf of the Adventure Hall, I invite you to join us. What do you think?"

Chu Fei: "Then I wonder what kind of conditions the Adventure Hall can offer?"

Jiang Longyu kicked the ball back, "Master, why don't you talk about your needs first?"

Under normal circumstances, whoever makes the first offer will suffer. But Chu Fei doesn't care. His ability to refine medicine is his greatest confidence.

Chu Fei spoke slowly: "I need a single-family villa with a basement, which should be safe enough for practicing and refining medicine. I need a counter and window in the adventure hall.

The Adventure Hall should not interfere too much with how I make potions and how I sell them. If there are any problems, we can resolve them through negotiation."

As Chu Fei spoke, Jiang Longyu frowned slightly.

But Chu Fei then talked about the rewards: "In return, I will be affiliated with the Adventure Hall. In addition to the potions sold directly, all customization or refining transactions will be completed in the form of tasks. The Adventure Hall will take a commission based on past tasks."

Chu Fei did not raise the price, and his conditions were quite standard. Chu Fei's purpose was very clear, and he wanted to be stable.

Chu Fei is not short of money, but what he lacks now is stability and time, and a platform to build his reputation and identity.

If possible, Chu Fei would not even make any money, but a slight loss is not a problem.

But considering that doing things at a loss can easily cause unnecessary trouble, it’s better to just make a little more money.

Jiang Longyu's brows relaxed after hearing Chu Fei's report, but he also had more questions. "Master, this condition doesn't seem to fight for my own interests."

Chu Fei smiled and said, "I fought for it. I fought for a trustworthy platform."

Jiang Longyu was stunned for a moment, then looked at Chu Fei with shining eyes. After a while, he said word by word: "I assure you, Master, that Adventure Hall is definitely a trustworthy platform and will be your strongest backing."

Chu Fei smiled and said, "I believe it too, that's why I went straight to the Adventure Hall. Since Director Jiang has no problem, can we arrange accommodation for him?"

"No problem. There are still a few single-family villas. I'll show you around."

Chu Fei quickly found a two-story villa with a small yard, an area of ​​about 220 square meters, and a basement. The villa is located behind the Adventure Hall and within the protection range of the Adventure Hall.

Then Chu Fei named himself "Magic Medicine Hall".

According to Chu Fei himself, most of my medicines are of illegal origin, and I also make some poisons, so this name is appropriate.

Of course, the most important thing is that the name is unique enough.

As we all know, if you want to attract attention, the name is the first step. Why do many celebrities change their names or call them stage names? Because their original names do not really fit their celebrity image.

The plaque was handed over to the Adventure Hall for customization, and Chu Fei and Wu Yong moved in directly with their bags.

By the time Chu Fei finished packing all his things, it was already noon the next day.

Wu Yong was not very busy. It was only after Chu Fei finished his work that Wu Yong said, "Shouldn't you hire some helpers? You can't do everything yourself. That would be a waste of time."

Chu Fei nodded. Previously, he had to arrange various items and deal with space capsules, which involved a lot of secrets and was not convenient for outsiders to intervene. Now that the arrangement is complete, he can hire someone.

There is an employee column in the Adventure Hall, which includes the job seekers' profiles and salary requirements.

The staff member who received Chu Fei this time was still the same staff member, but she changed into work clothes, put on a skirt, put on makeup, and personally introduced the employees here to Chu Fei, while also showing off her proud cleavage.

The Adventure Hall has a mature employee mechanism.

Because most adventure groups are small teams, but sometimes they are too busy to handle the work, so they hire temporary employees. Most of these temporary employees are paid on a daily basis.

However, being an employee of an adventure group can sometimes be in danger of losing one's life, and this requires the guarantee of the Adventure Hall.

An adventure group can be in danger, but if there is no danger it is not called an adventure group, but this must be made clear in advance.

If there is real danger to life, a fee will generally be paid in advance and placed at the Adventure Hall. If the person dies, the money will be given to the employee's family. If not, the money will be calculated based on the mission situation, injury situation, etc. The Adventure Hall will sometimes intervene in arbitration.

Chu Fei couldn't help but nodding as he listened to the introduction. The Adventure Hall did a great job in these details, which was why the Adventure Hall could continue to exist. It was trustworthy and worthy of this trust.

In this apocalyptic environment, trust is the most expensive and the most scarce; and it is also the most precious asset of the Adventure Hall.

Chu Fei flipped through a pile of information and soon selected three documents from thousands of them.

After looking at the three documents, Chu Fei said to the staff: "Please introduce the details of these three people."

"Okay." The staff member took the information, turned on the computer, and began to explain in detail:
"The first one is Bai Jie, 32 years old, with an 8-year-old boy, and her cultivation level is about 8.2.

He once worked in the Armored Mercenary Corps' medical team, becoming the deputy team leader. He has some experience in medical treatment and simple medicine sorting, as well as certain management skills, but he has almost no combat experience.

Later, her husband died in battle, and the mercenaries bullied the orphans and widows of the other side. Bai Jie is beautiful, and her experience is self-evident.

Bai Jie was also a decisive person. She took her son and left the Armored Mercenary Corps.

Fortunately, the pension was paid out and I was able to hold on, but it was ultimately like water without a source.

Bai Jie spent a lot of money to train her son, so she asked for a high salary. But those who could give Bai Jie a satisfactory salary were more or less malicious.

A beautiful woman with a son applied for a job several times, but all failed. Thanks to the background of the Armored Mercenary Group, the Armored Mercenary Group was quite brave, otherwise the body would have been lost.

Bai Jie had been rejected for a long time, and finally sent her resume to us. But here in the Adventure Hall, everyone needs people who can fight in the mountains.

The master can hire Bai Jie. She is a person who is forced to do things cleanly and efficiently. "

Perhaps because they are both women, this staff member felt sorry for Bai Jie.

Chu Fei nodded, "You can notify her to come for an interview."

After a short pause, Chu Fei added: "Tell her that I'm not married yet and I'm not interested in raising someone else's child."

The staff member was stunned for a moment, and continued to introduce the next two with a helpless look.

The other two also have certain work experience related to pharmaceuticals, and therefore their asking prices are not low.

Bai Jie asked for 350 yuan per day, while the other two asked for 300 yuan and 290 yuan per day respectively. All three were 8.0 beginners.

This price is really not low. According to the calculation method of computing power currency, a healthy adult is worth 190 yuan. Ordinary people can only earn a few yuan a month.

The reason why Chu Fei dared to ask for 20 yuan when he came here on a motorcycle was because they were all gang members, and there were probably not many people who could actually get the money.

At around 3:00 p.m., the three people were taken to Chu Fei's villa by the staff. In the living room on the first floor, Chu Fei sat on the sofa and looked at the three people, especially Bai Jie, indifferently.

She looks to be about thirty years old, mature and charming, with a tall and round figure, which makes people want to take a bite of her.

Bai Jie is comparable to Liu Tingyun, and compared to Liu Tingyun's calculation and heroism, Bai Jie has more maternal brilliance and the helplessness of life. When Chu Fei saw Bai Jie, two images popped up in his mind: a flesh-colored body and Mona Lisa's smile.

Although Chu Fei no longer admired this kind of beauty, after all, after seeing Shangguan Qinghong, Chu Fei's standards were sky-high. But it must be said that this woman did look very dangerous - looking like this in the apocalypse, without any backing, it was really hard for her to hold on until now.

As for the other two, one was called Zhang Zhengbao and the other Qi Zhongping, both were men, with cultivation levels of 8.1 and 8.2, about the same age, and in their thirties. They looked at Bai Jie from time to time.

Chu Fei asked some questions, then nodded to the staff member next to him, "Let's just take these three. I'm too lazy to calculate the salary by day. Zhang Zhengbao and Qi Zhongping will get 10,000 yuan a month, and Bai Jie will get 13,000 yuan a month. There are only eight days left this month, so each of them will be paid 2,500 yuan this month."

Because of the special environment at the end of the world, wages have to be paid at the beginning of the month, and it is impossible to suppress wages.

Chu Fei doesn't need this little money, so there's no need to affect his reputation for this little money. I want to make myself a star.

But Chu Fei searched his pockets and couldn't find any cash.

Finally, he took out a set of 10 bottles of potion and gave them to the staff of the Adventure Hall, "Please exchange them for some cash for me. Just follow the rules to take the commission."

The staff member immediately smiled and said, "Thank you, Master."

Although Chu Fei took out a potion of 8.0, a bottle was worth tens of thousands. The Adventure Hall took 5% of the commission, and the staff enjoyed 20% of the profit, so the final cost to the staff was thousands.

It’s okay, Chu Fei asked the staff to leave.

The staff member then took out a business card and said, "Master, this is my contact information. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. We are on call 24 hours a day."

Chu Fei nodded, "Got it."

Speaking of which, Chu Fei has not asked the staff member's name yet. As a master of pharmacy, this is the style. I don't ask, can't you tell me yourself? Look, this is not the initiative to hand over the business card. I looked at the name, Zhang Xiaohong, a very popular name.

Zhang Xiaohong left. Chu Fei looked at Bai Jie, Zhang Zhengbao, and Qi Zhongping and said slowly, "Bai Jie will be the squad leader. Zhang Zhengbao and Qi Zhongping, you two will follow Bai Jie's arrangements.

There is a suite and two standard rooms on the east side of the first floor. Bai Jie will stay in the suite, and Zhang Zhengbao and Qi Zhongping will each have a standard room."

After saying that, Chu Fei saw that Zhang Zhengbao and Qi Zhongping looked a little unhappy, and they looked at Bai Jie with strange eyes.

Chu Fei saw it and thought it was normal for you to be unhappy. How could I be the boss if I made you feel comfortable?

So the next step is to draw the pie.

Chu Fei tapped the table gently and said slowly, "I'm new here too, so please try to overcome any problems you have.

But I am confident that I can develop the Potion Hall even better. And as long as the Potion Hall develops, you will be the first beneficiaries."

The three people's eyes lit up. That's right, Chu Fei is a pharmacist. And the conditions Chu Fei just gave were also very good.

Especially what Chu Fei did just now, using potion to exchange for cash, was so cool.

Can medicine be exchanged for money at any time? Can money buy medicine at any time? (End of this chapter)
