Yipin Danxian

Chapter 155 The Lobbyist
Wu Sheng was really surprised when Cui Ming suddenly appeared in front of Dan's room and announced his family name.

He looked at the person in front of him again, he looked polite, with a generous and unobtrusive smile on his face, his manner was gentle and elegant, his clothes were plain, but there were gold threads at the corners of the sleeves, and foxes could be seen faintly on the lining of the neckline. Mao, can be described as low-key luxury, no matter how embarrassing to pursue him for the crime of "trespassing in the inner house", it feels like a flourish.

Although I have never met Cui Ming himself, but there is no need to verify it. With this person's demeanor, it is difficult for others to impersonate him.

Wu Sheng couldn't help but look out into the courtyard, Master Dongsun was still in the consultation room, how could he be reminded to slip away?Immediately extended his hand to extend his invitation: "It is a great honor for Ambassador Cui to visit the humble house, please come in."

Inviting Cui Ming into his house, the two sat opposite each other, Wu Sheng boiled water to make tea and served hot soup, Cui Ming took a sip and said: "Cui came to the city in the name of Alchemist Mu, but I didn't inform the post in time. , is really abrupt."

Wu Sheng said modestly: "It's just a remote and small country with a little reputation, Cui Envoy laughed at it."

Cui Mingdao: "Alchemist Shen is too humble. During the alliance, he overwhelmed the alchemists from other countries, and brought the dragon and tiger golden alchemy back to the world. Hearing this, Cui was deeply moved."

Wu Sheng hurriedly said: "It's a fluke, a fluke! Maybe it's the teacher's protection from the spirit in the sky. In my hands, I can get a panacea. I'm ashamed to say that when the panacea is completed, I have exhausted my energy and returned to Yongcheng. Laid down for a month."

Cui Ming nodded: "I heard that Alchemist Shen sacrificed alchemy with blood, and he has the demeanor of a famous scholar and a high teacher. Cui's admiration comes from the bottom of his heart, and please accept alchemy from me!" As he said, he bowed down.

Wu Sheng hastily left the seat to avoid it: "How dare you!"

Next, Cui Ming began to talk about his acquaintance with Xianmen Zigao in Linzi, his admiration for the dragon and tiger alchemy, and the achievements of alchemists in various countries today, talking about the world, giving pointers, It was really eloquent, Wu Sheng could hear it with gusto, and learned a lot about alchemists in the world.During the discussion, they even talked about the hobbies of some famous teachers, which really taught Wu Sheng some strange knowledge.

Half an hour later, Cui Ming changed the subject and began to ask Wu Sheng about his future plans.

Wu Shengdao: "As an alchemy master, it's nothing more than improving your cultivation and studying alchemy. Continue on the road of practice and refine more and better alchemy."

Cui Ming nodded and said: "Master Shen alchemy has lofty aspirations, and Cui appreciates it very much. It's just that the country is small and weak, the land is small and the people are poor. If you are trapped here, it may not be conducive to the great advancement of alchemy."

Wu Sheng frowned, thought for a moment, and asked, "I don't know what advice Cui envoy has?"

Cui Ming smiled and said, "I don't know if the alchemist knew Kong Qiu before?"

Wu Sheng immediately came to his senses: "I heard, what news does Cui envoy have?"

Cui Mingdao: "The sage of Confucius is famous all over Linzi, and the Jixia Academy is also highly praised. I heard that when he was traveling around the state of Wei, Master Wei Ziyu wanted to raise troops to attack Tai Shuji, so he asked Confucius about it. Wishing to help each other, he packed up his car and drove away from Weiguo overnight, he said to his disciples, a bird chooses a tree, how can a tree choose a bird!"

Wu Sheng immediately said: "It is said that a good bird chooses a tree to live on, and a good minister chooses a master to serve him!"

Cui Ming was stunned, and said: "Master Shen's remarks won my heart, Cui is exactly what he meant."

Wu Sheng urged with great interest: "And then? Continue!"

Cui Ming paused, sorted out the words and sentences, and said: "Since Master Shen's alchemy is so profound, Yu Yongguo is only a corporal. Everyone in the world is sad when they hear about it. Thinking of your senior brother Yunji, the alchemy method is not perfect. His personality is even more impure, yet he was worshiped as a guest by Yu Guo, and he was included in the ranks of doctors. How is it compared to Master Shen? Cui doesn't regret it very much."

Wu Sheng immediately said: "I understand what Cui envoy means. Cui envoy wants me to switch to Yuguo? Is Cui envoy here to be a lobbyist for Mr. Yu?"

Cui Ming blinked, coughed a few times, drank two cups of tea, and said, "Alchemist Shen misunderstood, Yuguo is not a small country, how could Cui persuade alchemist to go to Yuguo? Even if he went to Yuguo It’s just a remote and small country to be a doctor, so what’s the fun of being a doctor?”

Wu Sheng was stunned: "Didn't the envoy Cui say it earlier? With so many detours, the envoy Cui asked me to vote for Chu?"

Cui Ming nodded: "Exactly."

Wu Sheng asked: "Chu State can give me a doctor?"

Cui Mingdao: "I can't at the moment. But what Cui said just now, Yuguo is a remote and small country, so what if you become a doctor? Like your senior brother Yunji, isn't it also precarious? I'm afraid it's not as good as Bai Ding, a native of Dachu." Come safely! Although I don't want to be a doctor, my Zuo disciple has already revealed his intention to recruit, as long as Shen Danshi agrees, Cui should report to Shen Zuo disciple, Na Danshi is a corporal, no more beautiful than this Yongguo prince's corporal ? In the future, after Zuo Tu will be promoted, he will be recommended for meritorious service, and the position of doctor of the Shang Kingdom will definitely be within reach!"

Wu Sheng pondered for a long time, and stretched out three fingers in Cui Ming's expectant eyes: "I have three questions, I wonder if Cui Shi can answer them?"

Cui Ming lifted his spirits: "Please tell me."

Wu Sheng said: "I am an alchemist, and it costs a lot to make alchemy. If I don't have financial support, I can't concentrate on alchemy. I don't know how much a month's salary is for Shen Zuo's disciples? Ah, it's salary. I don't understand salary? It's just a monthly payment. !"

Cui Ming opened his mouth, unable to answer.As a corporal, the main purpose is to take shelter of the master's family. When encountering important events, there are people behind him, such as Cui Ming, who don't need to rely on Shen Douk for a living, and sometimes even feed him back. Of course, there are some The dead soldiers and counselors from poor families depended on the master's family for food and drink, and they could get rewards from the master's family even if they made meritorious service, but what about monthly salary-nothing!
Even if there is a salary, how much should be enough for an alchemist like Wu Sheng?The previous Yunji never asked about this!
Seeing that he couldn't answer, Wu Sheng nodded and said, "Okay, let's not talk about the salary. If I go to Yangzhou, can all the panacea in Yangzhou be handed over to me to refine? For example, what is needed in the army, Rewards from Yangzhou Yin, offerings from Yingdu, etc."

Cui Ming thought for a long time, and said: "Student Shen Zuo can fight for the alchemist, but please be considerate of the alchemist, there are Yangzhou Youtu and Yangzhou Yin, Yangzhou is not what Shen Zuotu says."

Wu Sheng nodded again: "Sincere man! If Cui Shiruo agrees straight away, I don't believe it. I have another question, if the previous two conditions are not feasible, how much is Shen Zuotu willing to pay me for the buyout fee?"

"What is a buyout fee?"

"I worked for the young master Qingyu in Shangyong. I contracted Maogong and auctioned the elixir. I gained a lot every year, which was enough to support me to study alchemy. I went to Yangzhou. I was not familiar with the place. I contracted the large-scale refining of elixir, so I must be compensated? This compensation for my loss from leaving Shangyong is the buyout fee, I wonder how much Shen Zuotu is willing to pay?"

After hearing this, Cui Ming felt at a loss.
