Chapter 303: A Thousand Apprentices (1)
Zhu Wanhao listened attentively as Wen Kui explained to him the benefits of being a Double Cave Pill Master. He was surprised to find that it was even more generous than he had previously understood.
An increase in monthly salary, a thousand alchemy apprentices serving him, and even the right to recruit official alchemists as disciples to obtain the profits of the Alchemy Grotto, a certain amount of free medicinal ingredients every month, the right to issue a large number of various sect missions, and the ability to read some unique alchemy books in the Dragon Flame Grotto … There were no less than a hundred aspects, filling dozens of pages.
After Zhu Wuyan finished reading this contract-like thing and signed his name, it meant that Zhu Wuyan had become a member of the Dragon Flame Grotto’s alchemists and would receive the protection and preferential treatment of the Dragon Flame Grotto.
Of course, while enjoying the rights and resources, Zhu Wuyang also had to fulfill various obligations accordingly. For example, completing a certain number of medicinal pills every month, taking on some pill refinement missions, and coming out to save the sect when it was needed…This was also something that should be given. Otherwise, how could the sect give you such generous treatment?
No matter which sect one joined, there would be similar requirements.
After seeing that Zhu Wanhao was done with the formalities, Wen Kui personally brought him to Twin Cave A, Pill Production Grotto No. 96 and No. 99 to take a look. These two Pill Production Grotto were both over a hundred square kilometers in size, and there were no less than a thousand channels of Dragon Flame Earth Fire inside. In other words, it could support more than a thousand alchemists refining pills at the same time.
The Dragonflame Earth Fire here was also far superior to the one Zhu Wuwan had used previously. It could be refined into better spirit pills, which would be priceless in the outside world.
For the next thousands of years, these two Alchemy Grotto would belong to Zhu Wuyan. As long as he completed the sect’s mission, the rest of the production would belong to Zhu Wuyan.
If they were managed properly, these two Alchemy Grotto would be able to bring Zhu Wuyang astonishing resources and wealth.
Unless Zhu Wuwan betrayed Dragon Flame Grotto, or…Upgrade to a better Alchemy Grotto!
” I’m fine. You just wait here. I’ll get someone to pick a batch of alchemy apprentices with good aptitude for you. As long as you teach them well, when they grow up, they will definitely bring you a lot of wealth. ”
Wen Kui only smiled. ” If one day, all of these 1,000 Alchemy Apprentices become official Alchemists and have the Alchemy Grotto, you will be able to get a share of the profits from more than 1,000 Alchemy Grotto. At that time, the harvest will be shocking and will exceed your imagination. ”
“I wonder how many disciples Elder Wen has that own the Alchemy Grotto?” Zhu Wuyang asked curiously.
Wen Kui only smiled slightly and did not answer directly, “” Now, I can draw profits from the 1,200 Alchemy Grottos every month. It’s precisely because of this that I was able to enter the Soul Formation Stage and become a grand cultivator in just over 2,000 years. ”
“Hiss…” Zhu Wanhao couldn’t help but gasp. There were 1,200 Alchemy Grottos. Even if each Alchemy Grotto could only extract tens of thousands of spirit stones of resources and wealth every month, it was still an astronomical figure.
No wonder it was said that the alchemists in the Dragon Flame Grotto were extremely rich, especially those of higher levels. Every one of them was a mobile treasure vault. Now, it seemed that they really lived up to their reputation.
Wen Kui patted his shoulder. ” Teach these disciples well. As long as you teach them well, they will be your most capable assistants in the future. ”
“If one day you have the chance to become a Successor Disciple and become the Crown Prince, these Alchemists will also be your most powerful subordinates. Moreover, you don’t have to worry about them betraying you. As long as they become your official disciples and enter the ranks of true Alchemists under your guidance, then no matter who they take as their master in the future, they will have to give you 10% of the profits in the Alchemy Grotto.”
” This is protected by the laws of the entire Ten Thousand Poisons Sect. No one is allowed to disobey unless they want to betray the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect. ”
“I understand.” Zhu Wuyang nodded and sent Wen Kui away. Then, he began to inspect the two Alchemy Grotto.
After a round of inspection, Zhu Wuwan nodded in satisfaction. It was indeed worthy of being called the Double-Caves A Grade Pill Refining Grotto. Whether it was the exuberance or the endurance of the Dragonfire Earth Fire, it was top-notch. If it was placed in the Southern Wasteland, it could be said to be the treasure of the sect.
Then, Zhu Wuwan used the Dragonfire Earth Fire here to refine dozens of Purple Fire Pills of Upper Lv 2. If they were sold later, they could at least bring Zhu Wuwan millions of low-grade spirit stones.
Previously, when Zhu Wuan rushed from the Hundred Poisons Sect to the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, she had only earned a few million low-grade spirit stones on the way. Now that she had stepped into the ranks of an Upper Lv 2 Alchemist, she had only spent about two days to earn so many spirit stones. One could imagine how much a high-level Alchemist earned.
In the past two days, the news of the new Twin Cave Alchemist on the second level of the Dragon Flame Grotto had already spread. Moreover, it was spreading very quickly. After all, this new Twin Cave Alchemist had obtained two Twin Cave A Grade Alchemy Grotto as soon as he entered the sect, and he was also a Medium Lv 2 Alchemist.
The entire second level of the Dragon Flame Grotto was in an uproar. Many gossips spread.
“This is the first time this old man has heard that a mere middle-ranked alchemist is qualified to obtain a Double-Cave-A-Grade Alchemy Grotto. Even if Elder Wen Kui is biased, he shouldn’t be so biased.”
” I heard that the kid and Wen Kuizhi are old friends. He even secretly bribed Elder Wen Kuizhi. That’s why Elder Wen Kuizhi used the reason that the kid’s comprehension was extraordinary, his creativity was amazing, and he had a high chance of becoming a Grandmaster Alchemist in the future to forcefully give these two A Grade Twin Cave Alchemy Grottoes to that kid. ”
” In the end, it’s just because they have connections and are willing to spend money. Elder Wen Kuizhi has always been a bit of an opportunist. He said that there’s a high chance of becoming a Grandmaster Alchemist. What a joke. It’s not that easy to become a Grandmaster Alchemist. Do you think you can get it just by opening your mouth? ”
” Don’t even talk about hope. I don’t think he’ll be able to become a Grandmaster in his lifetime. It’s so easy to become a Grandmaster Alchemist. Which one of them isn’t a combination of talent and luck? Other than knowing how to get in through the back door, what other abilities does that kid have? What a joke. ”
Clearly, it was just as Wen Kuizhi had said. These gossips were very unfriendly to Zhu Wuyang, but Zhu Wuyang did not care about them. This was something that was expected. It would be strange if they did not appear.
Time would help him slap his face. Of course, if someone jumped out to pick a fight, Zhu Wuyang would also slap them in the face in advance.
However, because of these unfriendly rumors, there were no low-tier low-tier and low-tier middle-tier alchemists who came to take him as their master. Only the 1,000 alchemy apprentices who were forcefully assigned by the Dragon Flame Grotto arrived one after another and appeared in front of Zhu Wuyang, waiting for her instructions.
