It’s too dangerous to seize the direct descendant, so I choose to be the leader of the Demon Cult

Chapter 45 Here he comes, the troublemaker of the Gongdan Conference
Zhao Ci turned his head and saw a group of familiar people.

It was the group from the Ninth Prince's Mansion. Zhao Yong was followed by a large group of young people, one of whom was Zhu Mei who was grabbing the Fire Pill at the auction house that day.

She said that sentence just now.

Hey!
No more acting?
Zhao Ci raised his eyebrows: "Brother Emperor, is this how you manage your people?"

Zhao Yong was not angry either, and just said calmly: "Zhu Mei is the alchemist hired by our alchemy workshop. If she has offended her in any way, I would like to apologize to Miss Li.

But please don't be too harsh. After all, the Zhu family started out as an alchemist, and everyone regards being an alchemist as a family honor, so the assessment of alchemists is a bit rigid. "

After saying that, he turned to look at Zhu Mei: "Each alchemy house has the right to grant the name of alchemist on its own. Even if Miss Li is far from meeting the Zhu family's standards for alchemists, we are not in a position to comment. Today I have I apologize on your behalf and be sure to be careful with your words and deeds in the future!”

Zhu Meiyingying bowed and said with a smile: "Yes, Your Highness! Miss Li is indeed the Xingyu Pill now..."

"Where's your mother, Yin and Yang?"

Zhao Ci blurted out.

Although the voice was low, everyone was so close that they could hear it clearly.

Everyone's expressions suddenly changed.

Zhu Li was originally very angry, but when she heard Zhao Ci scolding him, she immediately felt relieved, and looked at Zhao Ci with a hint of gratitude.

This boss can handle it.

Although he has no skills other than talking and cooking, he is really good at things.

The muscles on Zhao Yong's face were slightly stiff: "Old Shi, you..."

"No, you, your, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, your, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, I see, there are no elders around you, and you still dare to come up and make small talk, are you a bitch looking for scolding?"

Zhao Ci showed no mercy to him at all. He was polite to Zhao Yong. There were only two situations: one was that there were too many elders around him who wanted to show off, and the other was that no one around him was afraid of a fight.

There are a lot of people around now, but they are far away and still give me a bit of face.

He pointed behind Zhao Yong and said: "Look at those crooked melons and cracked dates behind you. You keep saying that you started from scratch, but in the end you still begged a bunch of alchemists from the Zhu family and the Feng family like they were begging for food.

Please wake up, you are the Yonghe Alchemy House, and the reputation of the Feng family and the Zhu family has nothing to do with you. Don't open your mouth and keep silent about how strict the Zhu family is to alchemists.

I haven't achieved anything at all, but I've learned all the tricks of a coward who pretends to be powerful.

If you really have the ability, you can show off your skills at the Gongdan Conference.

Just watch how loudly our top alchemist in the Xingyu Dan Society slaps you!
Zhu Li, let’s go! "

With that said, he directly grabbed Zhu Li's wrist and walked in the direction of Xingyu Danhui.

Zhao Yong and his group's faces turned blue and purple. They didn't expect Zhao Ci to be so venomous, and he scolded people so hard that it was impossible to refute them. They had joined a new alchemy workshop, and they were really just as powerful as a fox or a tiger.

Zhu Yan looked a little solemn: "Your Highness, did he just say that the number one alchemist in the Xingyu Dan Society was?"

Zhao Yong's expression was also a little ugly.

It seems that Xingyu Danhui indeed has a top alchemist, most likely sent by his father.

Father!

You are still biased!

He shook his head: "It doesn't matter! What the Gongdan Conference is all about is the foundation, which cannot be changed by just a few alchemists. Let him be arrogant for a while. After the conference, I will see how he can still be arrogant. Pills are not for use. It’s made with your mouth.”

"Yes!"

Everyone's expressions softened slightly.

……

"Your Highness Your Highness!"

Zhu Li looked excited.

Zhao Ci crossed his arms, waiting for her to praise him.

Zhu Li looked grateful: "You are still of some use!"

Zhao Ci: "???"

Zhu Li quickly changed her words: "No, no, no, I mean, you are an excellent boss."

Zhao Ci's expression softened slightly, that's about it.

He straightened his expression: "Anyway, if you hang out with me, everyone will work hard on their careers. I will fight whoever wants to mess with you. I will never let you be wronged. Just behave well later."

"it is good!"

Zhu Li nodded solemnly.

The two of them quickly joined the people at Xingyu Danfang, reviewed the preparations, and gave everyone a shot of chicken blood. The overall atmosphere was very good. After all, everyone was from the alchemy family, but they had always been treated in Linge. Suppressed to death.

Now that I finally have a chance to feel proud, how could I not be excited?
Everything is ready, just wait for the conference to start.

At this time, Zhu Li suddenly said: "Your Highness, can I go sit over there for a while?"

Zhao Ci looked around and saw Kan Luotang sitting in the audience, smiling apologetically at him.The Gongdan Conference is not completely closed, and it is not difficult for the children and family members of powerful people to come and see it.

Kan Luotang was thinking about Zhu Li's future, and she had helped to get him here, so it was reasonable to come and watch.

He nodded: "Go!"

"Hey!"

Zhu Li smiled, then ran quickly, sat next to Kan Luotang, and showed off his alchemist robe.

The two of them talked and laughed, quite happily.

Zhao Ci also scanned around and saw a familiar person, so he walked over with a smile.

"Uncle, you are here too."

"come and see."

Xiang Yunduan held his arms as thick as a bucket. He looked like a black iron tower and stood out in the audience.

Zhao Ci smacked his lips: "Isn't the Xiang family always not interested in this?"

Xiang Yunduan glanced at him: "I'm afraid you'll be bullied so badly that you'll faint from crying."

Zhao Ci: "..."

He glanced around and saw that no one from the Xiang family came except this ninth uncle.

It seems that he still cares about himself a little.

After chatting with Xiang Yunduan for a few more words, Zhao Ci saw that the time was almost up and walked towards the alchemy high platform.

On the way back, I happened to bump into Zhuge Weiyue pushing Zhuge Xiao's wheelchair.

Then he said hello: "I've met Senior Zhuge!"

Zhuge Weiyue smiled and said: "I didn't expect that Your Highness would actually gather so many alchemists. Whether our Zhuge Bai Refining Furnace's reputation can be improved to a higher level depends on Your Highness."

Having said that, it is full of official politeness, and at first glance, there is no hope.After all, they are still the same old gangsters who almost quit the elixir business. What kind of second youth can they have?

"The junior must do his best!"

Zhao Ci agreed casually and turned to Zhuge Xiao: "Huh? Isn't Mr. Xiao an official of the Nine Princes' Mansion? Why isn't he with the Nine Princes and the others?"

Zhuge Xiao smiled and cupped his hands: "Today's Tribute Pill Conference is, after all, the business of their alchemists. I don't have much to contribute, so joining in would be a bit of a waste of merit."

Nice guy.

Zhao Ci exchanged a few more casual greetings and then returned to the high platform.

At this time, the time is almost up.

"Boom!"

A bell rang, and the sound of ancient bronze echoed in the huge Suzaku Gate tower, making everyone present feel solemn.

After the nine bells rang, luxurious chariots drove in from inside and outside the palace.

The leader was naturally Emperor Wu Xian Zhao Huan.

All present saluted in unison.

"Long live my emperor, may Yu live forever!"

"Long live my emperor, may Yu live forever!"

"Long live my emperor, may Yu live forever!"

The mountains are roaring and the tsunami is roaring, the momentum is magnificent.

Everyone present showed admiration.

Although the emperor in front of them was getting older, he was still majestic in their hearts. Hundreds of years after the founding of Yu, although nearly half of the territory was lost after the turmoil, in their hearts, Emperor Wu Xian was still as good as Taizu Yu.

"Zhu Qing is flat!"

Zhao Huan's voice was not loud, but it fell in everyone's ears, warm yet majestic.

After everyone leveled up, they went up to the high platform to watch the ceremony with the help of Eunuch Li.

Immediately afterwards, there were the Queen, Concubine Jing and Concubine Jin, as well as the Crown Prince and Crown Princess, the fourth prince and the fourth prince's concubine.

As well as several respected princes, as well as Feng Zhuyang, the head of the three families in Linge.

This Gongdan Conference is certainly grand.

Zhao Huan glanced at the audience, his eyes stayed on Zhao Ci for a while, and then nodded to Eunuch Li.

Eunuch Li immediately took out a scroll, walked to the auditorium with small steps, opened the scroll, and made a high-pitched and loud voice.

"The Yun Dynasty collapsed, and finally the wilderness, the white tiger came to the world, and danger emerged. Heaven could not bear the weakness of the human race, so it dropped the divine pill..."

A wave of grand narratives connects the elixir to the destiny of the country. In the end, Emperor Yu hopes that the alchemists in the world will work together to make the human dynasty great again. The arrangement is sufficient.

After narrating, he put the scroll away: "Your Majesty now wants to transfer 430 million taels and purchase 17 kinds of elixirs. The categories are already in your hands. I also ask the heads of the alchemy shops to announce the categories and prices of your own tribute elixirs."

As soon as these words came out, there was a lot of silence in the room.

The fight has begun. In addition to production capacity, how many orders each company can win is related to price.

After all, the person responsible for purchasing the elixirs was the clan's mansion, and all of them were old foxes, especially Prince Gong Zhao Yan, who was a genius in arithmetic.

All the Danfang talkers were sitting on the high platform opposite the viewing platform, with serious expressions on their faces.

No one acted rashly.

After all, everyone has heard that the emperor intends to lower the price of Qi Lian Dan this time, and Qi Lian Dan is the main battleground for various companies to compete for. Although there will be an opportunity to lower the price later, whoever makes the first move may be in a passive position. .

According to the practice of previous years, Qi Lian Dan costs 60 taels per lower-grade pill, 80 taels per medium-grade pill, and 100 taels per pill for high-grade pills.

This market is very fanatical and is far from saturated. Every time it goes down by one or two, you will lose a lot of profits.

Even if several people already have various cost-lowering techniques and new prescriptions, the reduction of ten liang is almost the limit of what they can bear.

There was silence for a while.

Zhao Ci stood up first: "Since everyone is so humble, I will come out first to offer advice."

Say it.

Then he picked up his writing brush and walked to the stone tablet recording the price of pills.

He said loudly: "Xingyu Danhui's tribute pill conference will only produce one kind of elixir."

After that, he wrote the words "Qi Lian Dan" on the stone tablet, which caused a lot of laughter in the audience.

Zhao Yong couldn't help but sneered, and he felt relieved at the moment when he was still a little worried. This Xingyu Dan Club didn't look like a top alchemist.

It's really embarrassing to say that such a large alchemy club only dares to practice Qi Dan.

however.

The next moment, he couldn't hold himself any longer.

Because Zhao Ci suddenly wrote three lines of large characters on the stone tablet.

Low grade: 40 taels per piece.

Medium grade: 50 taels per piece.

Top quality: 80 taels per piece.

Hey!
For a moment, the entire venue exploded.

What price is this?Throughout the entire history of Dayu, this kind of elixir price is unheard of!

Is this tenth prince here to cause trouble?
Even Zhao Huan's eyelids trembled violently several times. He knew that Zhao Ci would lower the price, but he didn't expect that he would lower the price so much. He felt his scalp was numb. The price reduction was naturally what he wanted to see, but it was too low. Too many can cause riots.

As for the principals of the major alchemy shops, their faces were so gloomy that they were about to drip with tears.

Pill thief!

Disregarding the interests of alchemists in the world.

This is the pill thief!
Zhao Ci grinned, "It doesn't matter if you riot or not, what does it have to do with me?"

I'll stop working after three years of merit, regardless of the torrential floods behind me?
Three purple wishes.

Zhao Huan hopes that the royal alchemy workshop will rise, and he also hopes that Gu Xiangzhu will muddy the waters of the tribute alchemy conference this time. Gu Xiangzhu, on the other hand, wants his own alchemy workshop to rise and open up financial resources for the demon sect.

As for Zhao Ci, he only needs to complete these three tasks to the best of his ability.

As for wiping the butt, I believe Zhao Huan and Gu Xiangzhu will do it.

He grinned at the other alchemy owners: "I've finished writing! It's your turn!"

Everyone: "..."
