Start with a space

"I am both an internal energy warrior and a cultivator in the middle stage of the sixth level of Qi Refining."

Zhang Xiaoshan quietly felt the increase in his physical strength, thinking to himself that in addition to being an internal energy warrior, he was also an immortal cultivator. He couldn't help but smile and said to himself: "

My strength has greatly improved now. Even if I face a cultivator at the seventh level of Qi Refining, I can still fight him with confidence. I can barely be considered a powerful Qi Refining cultivator."

After saying that, Zhang Xiaoshan took a step forward and suddenly jumped out of the water in the fish pond.

There was a crash!

Splashes of water!

Zhang Xiaoshan leaped up like a nimble monkey, and then his feet landed steadily on the bank of the fish pond.

At this moment, all his clothes had been soaked by water. The wet clothes stuck tightly to his body, and water dripped from the edges of his clothes, forming a small water stain on the ground.

Zhang Xiaoshan looked down at his wet body and muttered softly, "

You should change your clothes.”

As he finished speaking, he was about to reach into the space bead and pick up a long gown.

"Pharmacist Zhang, you are here!"

However, at this moment, a familiar voice came from not far away.

When Zhang Xiaoshan heard the voice, his heart suddenly tightened. He quickly loosened the clothes in his hands, pulled his hands out of the space bead, turned slightly, and looked quickly in the direction where the voice came from.

"Ok?"

I saw a handsome middle-aged man walking quickly in the corridor not far away.

"Manager Dong, why are you here?"

Before the middle-aged man came closer, Zhang Xiaoshan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, smiled, and spoke.

Manager Dong walked to Zhang Xiaoshan and stopped about ten feet away. He looked up and down at Zhang Xiaoshan's wet appearance with a strange look, then glanced at the water in the pond beside him, and the surface of the water that was still stirring up waves.

"Pharmacist Zhang, why are you still playing and swimming in this pond in the middle of winter?"

Manager Dong couldn't help but smile and said.

"Haha, this is just a spur of the moment thing."

After hearing this, Zhang Xiaoshan scratched his head, a look of embarrassment appeared on his face, he laughed dryly twice, and began to lie.

"Pharmacist Zhang, you are really interested."

Manager Dong said jokingly.

"Manager Dong, do you have something to talk to me about?" Zhang Xiaoshan asked with a smile.

“Yes, I did come to see you for something.

But please follow me to the room next door first, I will find you a suitable piece of clothing to change your wet clothes, so that you don’t get so wet in this winter and catch a cold.”

The steward nodded and said.

"How embarrassing is this?"

Zhang Xiaoshan smiled and said.

"It's okay, let's go."

As Manager Dong spoke, he took Zhang Xiaoshan into a room, took out a piece of clothing that suited Zhang Xiaoshan and handed it to him.

“The clothes here fit me perfectly.”

Sixty breaths later, Zhang Xiaoshan, wearing clean and comfortable clothes, walked out of the house and said with a smile.

“Pharmacist Zhang, today you have refined 27 furnaces of Qi and Blood Pills for our Taiji Pharmacy, and each furnace contains no less than three pills.

Manager Dong smiled and said directly:

Coupled with your current fame, the Qi and Blood Pills in my Tai Chi Pharmacy are sold out every day during this period of time.

Moreover, other elixirs sold by Taiji Pharmacy are also sold at a large scale.”

As he spoke, Manager Dong paused, reached out and took out a purse from his pocket, handed it over, and said with a smile:

Pharmacist Zhang, here are three thousand nine hundred taels of silver for you.

Nine hundred taels of silver are what you earned today, and the other three thousand taels are from Master Huang, who sent me a greeting saying that the New Year is coming. The extra three thousand taels are a small token of appreciation from the Master, so you should accept them."

"Then I'll be polite. Thank the owner for his kindness on my behalf."

Zhang Xiaoshan smiled, took the purse and said.

"I'll take your message to you." Manager Dong nodded and said,

Also, starting from today and tomorrow, all the alchemists in our Tai Chi Pharmacy will take a break and prepare to go home for the New Year.

Therefore, starting from tomorrow until the Spring Festival after the Chinese New Year, you don’t have to come to Taiji Pharmacy to make elixirs.”

"I originally wanted to spend a few more days refining pills at the Taiji Pharmacy, earn more money, and then return to the village. It seems that this plan has fallen through."

After hearing this, Zhang Xiaoshan raised his eyebrows slightly and said casually.

"Pharmacist Zhang, from the sound of your voice, are you still short of money?"

Manager Dong smiled and said.

He knew that during this period of time, Zhang Xiaoshan spent only one and a half hours a day in Taiji Pharmacy and earned nine hundred taels of silver.

This went on every day for several months.

In addition, Zhang Xiaoshan is a cultivator and a disciple of Taoist Shen, so the other party should not be short of money.

He felt that Zhang Xiaoshan should have a lot of money.

"Silver! I'm in need of a lot of silver!"

Zhang Xiaoshan sighed and said.

The reason why he wanted a large amount of silver was that he wanted to buy some medicinal materials for refining Qi-Inducing Pills.

"Pharmacist Zhang, if you are short of silver, I can lend you five thousand taels of silver for emergency use."

When Manager Dong saw Zhang Xiaoshan sighing and his expression didn't seem fake, he was delighted and quickly spoke.

At this moment, the reason why he wanted to lend money to Zhang Xiaoshan was because he wanted to be friends with Zhang Xiaoshan.

In Tai Chi Pharmacy, apart from him and the owner, few people knew Zhang Xiaoshan's true background.

He knew that Zhang Xiaoshan was the disciple of Taoist Master Shen from the Wang family of immortal cultivation, and that Taoist Master Shen valued him very much.

In addition, during this period, the Qi and Blood Pills that Zhang Xiaoshan refined in Taiji Pharmacy were widely loved by martial artists in the martial arts world. Now Zhang Xiaoshan's fame in the martial arts world is also growing day by day.

Of course, the most important thing is that he knew that Zhang Xiaoshan was a cultivator.

According to the information he had heard, Zhang Xiaoshan was very likely a cultivator with extremely high talent.

If so, he had guessed that Zhang Xiaoshan would one day become a more powerful immortal master than Taoist Shen, with greater fame.

Therefore, he wanted to make friends with Zhang Xiaoshan while he was still a sixteen-year-old boy.

Maybe one day in the future, when Zhang Xiaoshan becomes a famous figure, and he only knows Zhang Xiaoshan, his fame will also soar.

"No, although I'm short of money right now, I'm not in a hurry. Thank you for your kindness, Manager Dong."

Zhang Xiaoshan waved his hand and spoke directly.

Manager Dong was slightly stunned, and muttered to himself, "Is Pharmacist Zhang too embarrassed to save face?

Or did he think that the five thousand taels of silver I lent him was too little, so he said this?"

Thinking in his heart, he quickly smiled and said again:

Pharmacist Zhang, if you think five thousand taels of silver is not enough, I can lend you ten thousand taels of silver. Do you think this is enough?"

Zhang Xiaoshan smiled slightly and said, "Manager Dong, you are really generous, but I really don't need it. I am going back to the village now."

Having said that, Zhang Xiaoshan waved his hand and walked out of the Tai Chi Pharmacy.

At this moment, he walked on the street, bought some things in various shops, and then walked out of the gate of Fenglin Town.

He planned to walk back to Hongye Village.
