I have a magical tree

Chapter 125: Officials gather in the government office

"Xu... Lord Xu!" Mao Chun's voice was trembling, "Forty-five pills were made, forty of them were top-grade, and five of them were medium-grade."

Xu Dao nodded, and it was indeed a bit reluctant. The problem appeared in the last step of condensing the pill. Too many pills were condensed at one time, resulting in a large loss of medicinal properties later. Five of them were only medium-grade.

However, even so, forty top-grade pills were produced in one furnace, which is also an extremely terrifying number.

At the current speed, it will probably be no pressure to refine first-grade pills in the future. I just don't know how far I can go with the second-grade pills, so I have to try it today!

Xu Dao took the pills and got a total of 108 top-grade first-grade blood-strengthening pills and five medium-grade first-grade blood-strengthening pills.

If he follows the regulations, he needs to hand in fifty-four top-grade pills, and the rest will be his. So he took out fifty-four pills and gave them to Mao Chun: "Send these to the alchemy room later!"

Mao Chun looked at the pills in his hand and reminded in a low voice: "In fact, you don't have to hand in so many. The above is based on ten pills per furnace. One top-grade pill can be exchanged for two medium-grade pills, so if you hand in all top-grade pills, the number can be reduced by another 30%."

"If so, then this time, don't you only need to hand in thirty-five top-grade pills?"

Mao Chun thought for a moment and then nodded, "Indeed."

Xu Dao took back nineteen of them, "Then you can hand over the rest to the alchemy room later."

Then he took out three top-grade pills and five medium-grade pills from his own share, "These are rewards for you. If you work diligently in the future, you probably won't be short of pills."

Mao Chun and Mao Xia thanked him immediately. In fact, Mao Chun didn't want such a reward. She wanted to ask Xu Dao to teach her how to make medicine.

But she knew her own limitations and didn't dare to speak. It was just the first time they met today, and it would be too much to ask for such a request.

However, this Lord Xu was really generous. He took out three top-grade pills!

When alchemists usually rewarded their alchemy servants, they only took out the pills that were made but of lower quality.

Top-grade pills, even if they were only of the first grade, were very valuable. However, other people would not be as efficient as Xu Dao. In less than half a day, he had refined ten furnaces of pills. Most people could not refine ten furnaces of pills in a day.

Although it only took half an hour to refine a first-grade pill, refining pills required mental energy and blood. People were not made of iron and always had to rest and recover.

Unlike Xu Dao, who did not feel tired at all after refining ten furnaces.

Then Xu Dao began to try to refine the second-grade blood-strengthening pill in this way.

He also started with two portions, and then slowly increased them after success.

...

Inside the government office of Heishan Prefecture.

At this time, the palace master Nangong frowned, watching the chief officers of various departments coming from all over the place. Jiang Taiqing, the chief of the Demon Suppression Department, had already arrived, Jiang Fu, the chief of the Inspection Department, was also sitting upright, and Gong Zuxiu, the chief of the Military Department, was struggling with the cakes in front of him.

Gong Zuxiu was born in the military, and his personality was rough, and he didn't have so many rules. When he saw that there was food, he asked Nangong if he could eat it. What else could Nangong answer? Didn't you say that you were not allowed to eat?

If you were not allowed to eat, what would you serve?

Then, this guy ate and drank without any image, without any restraint. In fact, this is also a habit. If you eat and drink too politely in the army, you will definitely be ridiculed by your colleagues as a woman.

In fact, at this time, he ate and drank so much without any image, which was very rude. Didn't you see that Jiang Taiqing and Jiang Fu didn't look at him, and didn't want to have too much communication with this guy at all, mainly because they felt a little embarrassed.

However, Nangong Nei knew Gongzuxiu very well and knew that he was just a jerk and would not deliberately be rude to him, so he never cared about it.

And Nangong Nei also relied on this generosity to make Gongzuxiu always follow his lead.

"Liang Zuo, the head of the Qingli Division, is still inspecting the prefectures and counties below. He will definitely not be able to come today. As for the Household Registration Division and the River and Lake Division, forget it. It's not very useful for them to come. Elder Wang from the Shangyi Bureau should be here. When Elder Wang comes, we will start to talk about business."

Nangong Nei saw that everyone was a little anxious, so he spoke to comfort them. "And Gongzuxiu, stop eating quickly and wipe your mouth. We are about to discuss business. It's not decent to eat like this."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a servant coming quickly, "Your Excellency, Doctor Wang is here."

"Please come in quickly!" Nangong Nei stood up immediately.

Although he was the Lord of the Palace, he really couldn't put on airs in front of Old Wang. The main reason was that he was too experienced. In addition, he was a fifth-grade alchemist with connections throughout the county city. His official rank was from the fourth grade, so anyone who saw him had to give him some face.

He was only a Lord of the Palace, but he was only the fifth grade.

Of course, the two were not in the same system. For a normal official to be promoted, not only did he need to have matching strength, but he also had to endure seniority. After these two things, he also had to look at his background. If you have no background, why would they let you take this position?

The medical officer system was much more convenient, especially for alchemists. As long as you have strength, your promotion speed will definitely be amazingly fast. Of course, that also requires that your talent for alchemy is good enough. Otherwise, you have to rely on seniority to get promoted.

Seeing that the Lord of the Palace had stood up, the other few people couldn't sit still, so they also stood up.

"Lord of the Palace, I'm late!" Wang Cheng'an apologized immediately.

"Old Wang, there's no need to be polite. Please take a seat!" Nangong Nei waved his hand, motioning everyone to take a seat.

Basically everyone who should have arrived has already arrived. Those who haven't arrived are either out of the city and can't make it back in time, or there is no need for them to come.

For the Household Registration Department and the River and Lake Department, if you ask them to come, they will just be puppets and listen to what they say. The main reason is that what is being discussed today has nothing to do with their main job.

"I asked you to come here today, and I believe you have heard the reason."

The people below nodded, but Gong Zuxiu was straightforward, "I heard it, but the specific situation still needs to be explained in detail by the Lord of the Household."

He was the only one who dared to talk to the Lord of the House like this. Although this person's straightforwardness sometimes offends people, he is also very likable at many times. At least those who really understand him will easily trust him because of his character.

"A strange disaster occurred in Yanghe County, and a super-grade strange dragon was born."

Everyone's expression was condensed. What a terrifying existence the super-grade monster is. Every time it is born, it will inevitably cause a huge disaster, and even they have to be afraid.

Even Gong Zuxiu, who had always been careless, looked serious when he heard this. No one dared to be careless in the face of such an existence. Although the super-grade monster was far away in Yanghe, what if?

What if the monster was not satisfied after devouring the population of a county and set its sights on other counties in Heishan Prefecture, or even the prefecture city?

At that time, the situation would not be the same as it is now! None of them present could stay out of it.
