Chapter 112 How strong is Dad?
Outside the mine, Sijidao's body disappeared.
Li Defu smacked his lips and put away his sword, feeling that it was boring.
"This guy's psychological endurance is not good." He spread his hands, "I thought I could play a few more rounds with him, but I didn't expect him to log off directly."
In the morning, he had criticized Four Seasons Rice on the forum.
However, there were too many people criticizing Four-Season Rice at that time, so this guy might not have noticed him at all.
Another roommate, He Lie, asked, "Do we need to wait for him to come online?"
The director shook his head: "Forget it, this guy has good equipment, and ordinary players can't defend him. Besides, we don't know how long he will be offline, so don't waste time."
"That's right, it seems a bit too much to keep him online."
In the game, unless there is a deep hatred or one is extremely angry, people rarely do this.
Sijidao’s equipment is indeed good. Under normal circumstances, several people in the dormitory cannot beat him in a one-on-one fight.
“What if this guy gets so angry that he has a heart attack and never comes online again? We can’t guard him forever!” Roommate Li Sihua also said so, and started to pack up his equipment with a smile.
Just like that, this PK involving hundreds of people ended with Bikini Bottom's victory.
The entire PK process was recorded by many individual players nearby.
As soon as this ended, some independent players with considerable strength came over and asked Li Defu and others if they needed to recruit more people.
"Collect! Of course I will!"
The people in the dormitory looked at each other and smiled.
The next job will be more boring.
Form a team to fight monsters, increase tacit understanding, chat about family matters, etc.
Director Yu Wen Shuxue created a large group and invited everyone in the Bikini Bottom team to join. He then created a small group and invited the core members of Frozen Cross and Sixth Heaven to join.
As veteran game geeks, they would not make mistakes on these matters.
Yuwen Shuxue walked up to Su Xia and said, "Brother Su, I still have to rely on you this time, otherwise our dormitory will definitely fail miserably, and I don't know how long we will be laughed at by Sijidao."
"It's just a small matter."
Su Xia shrugged, looking indifferent.
It's boring to make medicine all day, so fighting is pretty good.
"Someone in the team is asking about the potion." Yuwen Shuxue said, "It's impossible to give it to them for free, but we can lower the price a bit, a little lower than the market price, what do you think?"
"Okay, you guys decide on this matter."
Su Xia thought similarly. There was no way his medicine would make those guys lose their lives in vain.
Relationships need money to maintain.
If you give the potion for free, those guys will feel embarrassed at first, but over time they will take it for granted.
When one day Su Xia stops refining medicine, instead of being grateful, they will only blame Su Xia.
This is probably what it means to be grateful for a little bit of rice and resentful for a big bit of rice.
"Brother Su, how much can you control the cost of a first-level healing potion to be now?" Yu Wen Shuxue asked, pinching his fingers.
"The basic cost is 5 yuan, but I make a lot of mistakes, so I can control it to around 6.5 yuan," Su Xia thought for a while, "but my two brothers are very skilled, they basically don't make mistakes when refining first- and second-level potions, I can ask them if they are willing to do some work with small profits but quick turnover."
“That’s great!”
Yu Wen Shuxue heard from Su Xia that his two senior brothers were both third-level pharmacists.
Outside, a third-level pharmacist can open his own shop and recruit apprentices.
In fact, before, Su Xia had no opinion on Hong Bafu and Lan Bafu, but the pharmacy had no business in the past two days because all the wealthy customers were ripped off by him...
It's his fault.
As an apprentice, it would be good if he could bring some business to the pharmacy.
The two guys, Hong Bafu and Lan Bafu, were able to refine first-level potions at an astonishing speed, almost allowing them to finish a bottle in the blink of an eye.
Moreover, unlike Su Xia, they do not need to follow the instructions step by step. They can actually skip several steps and directly mix some materials together. The final medicinal effect is not weaker at all.
In the words of Hong Bafu: There is no skill involved in this kind of thing; it just takes practice.
Coral City is a large novice map, and there are many wealthy players who choose to descend on this map.
As long as the channels are opened up, the reputation of Dad's Pharmacy will sooner or later spread among the player community.
"For a first-level potion, how about pricing it within our team at 9 game coins? Pricing it to our friendly team at 12 game coins, and pricing it to outsiders at 15 game coins. What do you think?" Yu Wen Shuxue was a little nervous. Looking at Su Xia, he lowered the price to a very low level, hoping to quickly seize the market.
From a normal merchant, a first-level potion costs 30 game coins.
He simply cut the price in half.
Su Xia nodded and said, "No problem, let's do as you say, but I can't guarantee the supply, I have to go back and ask my teacher and two senior brothers first."
"Okay, Brother Su, our dormitory is entirely dependent on you!"
"Well, I'll go first."
This is a good thing, and Su Xia doesn't want to delay.
He stood at the edge of the mine, hailed a car, and returned to the pharmacy as quickly as possible.
In the mine, several roommates looked at the car that Su Xia left in and exclaimed: "Brother Su is also a rich man in the game, with a noble status, and he uses a car to travel when he goes out. I envy him."
"Let's work harder and become rich soon!"
"Okay, keep going!"
“…”
A few poor brothers encouraged each other and were full of energy.
On this sunny afternoon, the Bikini Bottom team welcomed its first large-scale recruitment, and everything was moving in a good direction.
And Su Xia returned to the pharmacy not long after.
As soon as he entered the store, Hong Bafu couldn't wait to ask, "How was it? Brother Su, did you win?"
"Of course I won!" Su Xia replied with a smile, "With so many potions in hand, you can't embarrass our pharmacy, right?"
"sure!"
Hong Bafu took a closer look and found that Su Xia had no injuries on his body. He must have been crushed directly.
He asked, "Does your opponent have a background? Do you want me to help you deal with it?"
"No need, they are just a group of refugees."
Su Xia walked back to her workbench and said, "But the leader of that group of guys worked for Zhao Si, and the Scimitar Organization was betrayed by that man."
"What?"
Hong Bafu glared and immediately stood up from the workbench.
Lan Bafu also put down what he was doing and looked at Su Xia.
Even Dad took a sip of coffee, raised his small round glasses, and glanced casually at the workbench.
"Brother, why didn't you tell me?" Hong Bafu gritted his teeth, "If I had known it was that guy, I would have gone with you to teach him a lesson! If I don't break all three of his legs, I'm not named Hong!"
Su Xia replied, "Brother, that man works for Zhao Si after all. Breaking his leg in broad daylight will only bring trouble to our pharmacy."
Hong Bafu: "But..."
At this time, the old man suddenly spoke up: "Well said, very thoughtful, smarter than your two brothers."
Su Xia immediately turned around and said with a smile: "Thank you, teacher."
“Hehe…”
Dad put down the newspaper and looked at the sunlight outside the door. His old eyes were full of calmness, as if he remembered something.
After a while, he sighed slightly and said, "If my father's first apprentice had your brain, he wouldn't have gotten into trouble later."
"The first apprentice?"
Hong Bafu was stunned, he thought he was the first one.
From what dad said, there was a senior brother before these three?
The old man seemed to have thought about a lot of things. He was thinking carefully and narrated slowly: "Before you, I had an apprentice named 'Gu An'. He was very talented. Not only in alchemy, but also in all aspects. He was very smart..."
Hearing this, the three people beside the experimental table looked at each other.
Next, Dad will definitely say "but".
As expected, the old man continued, "But he has a hot temper and easily offends people. He often got into trouble when he was an apprentice. Later, after he had learned enough, he went out to open his own shop. On the day he graduated, he asked me if I had any teachings."
"Teacher, what did you say?" Lan Bafu asked curiously.
"I only said one sentence to him." Dad took a sip of coffee, "If you get into trouble in the future, just don't tell the master about it."
"Teacher, how is Brother Gu now?"
"You'll know later."
Dad shook his head slightly, looked away, and refused to say anything more.
Judging from my father's tone, the outcome for that senior brother must not be very good, and he is very likely to have died.
Just like that, the pharmacy fell into silence again.
Although Hong Bafu and Lan Bafu were curious, they did not dare to ask.
Su Xia was also curious, so he looked at his father's character panel, trying to find some information from his father's character description, but what he didn't expect was...
Can't see through!
"How could this happen?" Su Xia was secretly surprised.
He has already reached level 3.9 psychic power, but he still can't see through his father's character panel!
At a glance, except for the name and race column, everything else is "?".
Su Xia blinked, still no change. He couldn't help but think of his father's calm performance in front of Yu Tuo before.
Could it be that Dad is also a level 4 creature?
Maybe stronger?
But since Dad is so powerful and he hates the mechanical race, why doesn't he stand up and use his own strength to resist the rule of the mechanical race?
After a while, Su Xia gave up the investigation and said to his father, "Teacher, I have some friends who want to buy medicine from us at a low price."
“How low?”
"It's only slightly higher than the cost price." Su Xia answered truthfully, "but the demand may be huge."
"How big?"
"Once the market is opened up, we may need hundreds or even thousands of medicines of all grades every day. "
"Sure, discuss it with your two brothers and ask them to refine more so that you can pay off the money you owe to dad as soon as possible!"
"Thank you, teacher."
Su Xia breathed a sigh of relief, everything was basically safe here.
Hong Bafu and Lan Bafu want to become fourth-level alchemists, but they cannot only practice the fourth level every day.
After learning about Su Xia's idea, the two had no objections and agreed immediately.
But after all, there are only four masters and apprentices in the pharmacy. There may be too many orders in the future and the supply may not meet the demand, so Su Xia asked the two brothers about the speed limit.
But Hong Bafu smiled calmly: "Brother, what is there to worry about? Go to the second floor of the basement. It is full of potions that we have practiced for these years. Let's sell all the low-level potions first."
"There's a second floor in the basement?"
Su Xia was shocked. After all, he was the basement cleaner appointed by his father, but he didn't even know this.
He immediately took the key and hurried to the basement.
The first floor of the basement is quite large, filled with various documents and ancient books, as well as various specimens, materials, antiques, etc., and occasionally one or two medicine recipes can be found.
In an inconspicuous corner, Su Xia found the partition leading to the second underground floor.
