Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

Chapter 457: Chapter 188: The Great Formation of Myriad Corpses and Profound Darkness, Alchemy!_2

And these Alchemy Workshops and Alchemy Stores mostly provide Second Rank Alchemy Chambers for their own Alchemists and do not lend them out to outsiders.

“Do I really have to buy a Pill Furnace and make elixirs at home.”

“In that case, I’d be better off making money through Talisman Making.”

After walking out of an Alchemy Workshop, Lu Changsheng shook his head slightly.

He had originally thought that with the high profits from Alchemy, he would easily make a fortune.

However, he didn’t expect to be stumped by such a trivial issue.
...
“Forget it, this is the last place. If it doesn’t work out, I’ll put Alchemy aside for the time being.”

“When I return, I’ll see about setting up an Alchemy Workshop in the Hongye Marketplace, hiring a couple of fire-stoking boys and Alchemy Apprentices.”

Lu Changsheng gazed at the Alchemy Pavilion ahead, musing to himself.

He then stepped forward and walked in.

Inside the store, there was only one girl around fifteen or sixteen years of age.

The girl was dressed in a goose-yellow gown, with a shidare hairstyle, eyes like pools of water, a cute nose, and rosy lips.

Propping her fair little hand against her cheek in boredom, her small feet in delicate embroidered shoes swung under the goose-yellow gown.

Upon seeing Lu Changsheng, she immediately perked up and inquired, “Welcome, may I ask what kind of Elixir Medicines the customer wishes to purchase?”

“I’d like to ask if you have a Second Rank Pill Furnace and Alchemy Chamber for rent?”

Lu Changsheng asked, looking at the girl.

“A Second Rank Pill Furnace and Alchemy Chamber, that’s not something we offer to the public…”

The girl shook her head subconsciously in refusal upon hearing this.

Every Alchemist dislikes others entering their own Alchemy Chamber or using their Pill Furnace.

Moreover, lending it out to the public is dangerous, as mishaps such as explosions in the furnace could occur.

But as soon as she spoke, she looked at Lu Changsheng and asked, “May I know if the customer is a Second Rank Alchemist?”

“If you are a Second Rank Alchemist, our store does have a Second Rank Pill Furnace and Alchemy Chamber available!”

The girl gazed at Lu Changsheng with bright, hopeful eyes.

“I’m a Second Rank Alchemist, but I’m not currently interested in serving as a Guest Elder and being an Alchemist exclusive to a store,” Lu Changsheng said with a smile, shaking his head.

A couple of the stores he had visited earlier were also willing to provide a Second Rank Pill Furnace and Alchemy Chamber.

But the condition was signing a Spiritual Contract to become a Guest Elder or an Alchemist exclusive to the store.

Although he possessed the Misty Sky Bead, which could deceive a Spiritual Contract.

The basic ethics in his heart prevented him from doing such a thing.

“Is that so…”

The girl fell into thought, biting her finger upon hearing that.

“Since it’s not available for public rental, then I won’t disturb you anymore.”

Lu Changsheng didn’t mind, slightly bowing his hands towards the young girl.

“Senior, please wait.”

“Our store’s Pill Furnace and Alchemy Chamber are currently unused, and we can rent them to the senior.”

“But the price is fifty Spirit Stones per day, with a minimum rental period of ten days, and the Spirit Stones consumed by the Earthfire Array need to be provided by you, the senior,” the girl in the yellow gown called out as Lu Changsheng started to leave.

“Oh?”

Lu Changsheng paused in his steps, nodded to the girl, and replied, “No problem.”

Fifty Spirit Stones a day was not expensive.

After all, buying a Second Rank Pill Furnace would cost at least ten thousand Spirit Stones.

And a top-grade Second Rank Pill Furnace, twice as expensive as a Talisman Brush, would cost thirty to forty thousand Spirit Stones.

That was also the reason Lu Changsheng was hesitant to buy a Pill Furnace for himself at the moment.

“Let’s start with ten days then, and if I need to continue later, I can top up, can I?”

Lu Changsheng took out five hundred Spirit Stones and spoke to the girl.

“Mhm mhm, no problem, senior, please follow me,” the girl nodded vigorously, a smile spreading across her face as she accepted the Spirit Stones.

She then led Lu Changsheng to the backyard of the store, in front of a house built of black bricks.

Lu Changsheng touched the black wall, feeling its chill.

He knew it was made of bunka stone.

This type of brick withstands high temperatures very well.
