Chapter 1424 Honorary Elder
Remember in one second [ ]
Hearing Chen Ping's words, the man in black looked Chen Ping up and down, and was not moved by the so-called Wang, the shopkeeper in Chen Ping's mouth.
The so-called Wang, in fact, was the old man that Chen Ping met in Jinshan City.
However, the old man did not introduce Chen Ping to come here, which was just an excuse by Chen Ping.
However, although Wang was also the shopkeeper of Wanbaotang's branch, the gap between Jinshan City and Qingshan Mansion was too big. Wang's status in Wanbaotang was naturally far inferior to that of the shopkeeper of Wanbaotang's branch in Qingshan Mansion.
So it was basically impossible to rely on Wang's recommendation to meet the shopkeeper of Wanbaotang in Qingshan Mansion.
After the man in black looked at Chen Ping, he casually said, "The shopkeeper doesn't have time for the time being, so I'm afraid he can't see you, but I can take you to see Manager Liu."
Chen Ping immediately smiled and nodded, saying, "Then I'll trouble you, brother. I hope you can lead the way."
The man in black slowly stood up and led Chen Ping directly to the entrance of the second floor staircase. After a few simple words with the two men in black guarding the staircase, he took Chen Ping to the second floor.
Although the scale of Qingshan Mansion Wanbaotang is larger, the overall structure is almost the same as that of the Wanbaotang branch in Jinshan City. Even the number of floors is the same, and the rules are not much different.
To enter the second floor, you naturally need certain qualifications.
However, since Chen Ping has already introduced himself as a shopkeeper recommended by other Wanbaotang branches, he has the qualifications to enter the second floor for the time being.
After taking Chen Ping to the second floor, he did not continue to walk up, but came directly to a man in black.
The collar of the black-clothed man's clothes has two gold stars embroidered on it, which is also a symbol of the identity of the people in Wanbaotang.
Those with one gold star are already senior receptionists in Wanbaotang, equivalent to the lobby manager of a hotel in the secular world of humans. As for those with two gold stars, they are ordinary stewards in Wanbaotang, and those with three gold stars are senior stewards in Wanbaotang.
Four gold stars are the level of shopkeepers, and five gold stars are the level of big shopkeepers. The shopkeeper Wang in Jinshan City is a 4-star existence, and the branch shopkeeper of Wanbaotang in Qingshan Mansion is a big man with 5 gold stars.
As for those above 5 gold stars, 6 gold stars and up to 9 gold stars,
all are high-level figures in the headquarters of Wanbaotang.
Of course, there are also some honorary elders. These people are either high-level alchemists or weapon refiners, or people who are responsible for identifying treasures. They are very useful to Wanbaotang, so they can obtain the identity of 6 stars or above.
In this Qingshan Mansion, there are actually 6-star or even 7-star bigwigs, but such bigwigs, although their status is higher than that of the shopkeeper, will not be responsible for the affairs of the Wanbaotang branch, but can only cooperate with Wanbaotang.
Seeing the two-star manager Liu, Chen Ping also showed enough respect. After briefly introducing his background, Manager Liu asked casually with a calm face: "What do you want to see me for?"
Chen Ping hurriedly smiled and said: "Manager Liu, I am also an alchemist. Although I am a latecomer, I am now at the peak of the 7th grade, so I have some elixirs on hand. I want to trade with Wanbaotang. In addition, I want to trade with Wanbaotang for some medicinal materials and elixirs. That's why I want to see Manager Liu."
Hearing Chen Ping's words, Manager Liu's eyes suddenly lit up slightly. After carefully looking at Chen Ping, he stood up and rushed to Chen Ping. Ping bowed his hands and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that this brother is actually a seventh-grade peak alchemist. If the brother can produce a seventh-grade peak elixir, he will be a distinguished guest of our Wanbao Hall. If he can develop long-term cooperation with Wanbao Hall, he may also become a four-star elder of Wanbao Hall!"
Chen Ping knew very well that to become a four-star elder of Wanbao Hall, one must be a seventh-grade peak alchemist or weapon refiner. As for the three-star elder, it must be a sixth-grade peak alchemist or weapon refiner. Below three stars, that is, a fifth-grade alchemist or weapon refiner, it is impossible to become an honorary elder of Wanbao Hall.
As for alchemists above the four-star level, they correspond to higher-level elder positions.
Five-star elders are eighth-grade peak alchemists, six-star elders are ordinary ninth-grade alchemists, and seven-star elders are ninth-grade senior alchemists.
As for the ninth-grade peak alchemists, they can directly become eight-star elders.
There is still a big difference between them.
Ordinary ninth-grade alchemists can only occasionally refine ninth-grade pills by chance or when they perform exceptionally well. However, in the process of refining eighth-grade pills, they are more successful than ordinary eighth-grade alchemists, and the success rate is also higher. As for the ninth-grade senior alchemists, they can refine ninth-grade pills with a higher success rate, but they cannot refine ninth-grade peak-level pills. Only after reaching the ninth-grade peak-level alchemist can they barely refine ninth-grade peak-level pills.
However, in the Land of Ten Thousand Monsters, this is already the limit for alchemists.
As for those who want to become a nine-star elder, unless they have made great contributions to Wanbaotang, or are ninth-grade peak alchemists who have completely devoted themselves to Wanbaotang, they can have such a status.
Ordinary collaborators can only get the medal of the Eight-Star Elder.
As soon as Chen Ping comes, he can become a 4-star elder. In terms of status in Wanbao Hall, he will even be higher than Manager Liu.
^0^ Remember in one second【】
One step higher.
Of course, the meanings represented by the two are still different. Chen Ping is not qualified to intervene in the daily management of Wanbao Hall, but although Manager Liu only has two stars, he is also one of the managers of Wanbao Hall. One cannot generalize.
However, as long as he has a good relationship with Chen Ping, Manager Liu can get more benefits from Chen Ping, and there will be more rewards from above, which is why Manager Liu is so polite to Chen Ping.
In the face of Manager Liu's politeness, Chen Ping did not show off. Instead, he said with an apologetic smile: "Manager Liu is looking up to this junior. This junior is just lucky enough to be a seventh-level alchemist. He wants to reach the eighth level." I don’t know how long it will take to reach the level of an alchemist, but if I become a 4-star elder, will I be able to purchase some medicinal materials through the channels in Wanbao Hall? This will also help me further improve my alchemy skills.”
Manager Liu suddenly understood, and at this moment he also understood why Chen Ping wanted to go to the Wanbaotang branch of Qingshan Mansion.
Because although Jinshan City also has a Wanbaotang branch, Jinshan City's Wanbaotang branch only has one four-star shopkeeper, and a shopkeeper with the same star level cannot award Chen Ping the Elder Medal.
In other words, the Wanbaotang branch in Jinshan City can only award Chen Ping the medal of a three-star elder. Only after arriving in Qingshan Mansion can the Wanbaotang branch storekeeper in Qingshan Mansion have a five-star level. In this way, he can Award Chen Ping the badge of a four-star elder.
Although the honorary elder does not care about things, he can still be regarded as a big shot in the Wanbao Hall. Although the level of the four-star elder is not high, it is one level higher than the level of the three-star elder, and it is more convenient to act in the Wanbao Hall. Some, just the discounts on purchasing medicinal materials are greater than the discounts offered by Samsung Elders.
Chen Ping must have taken a fancy to this, so he came to the branch of Wanbaotang in Qingshan Mansion to get the medal of the four-star elder.
After thinking about this, Manager Liu stood up and said with a smile: "Since fellow Taoist can become a 4-star elder, then through Wanbaotang's acquisition channels, you can naturally purchase a large amount of medicinal materials, and the purchase price will be higher than The price through normal acquisition channels is lower, which is also a preferential method offered by Wanbaotang to elders of different levels. I will take fellow Taoists to meet with our shopkeeper. Only he is qualified to award fellow Taoists with 4-star honorary elders. emblem.”
"But I hope fellow Taoist will be well prepared. If you want to become a four-star honorary elder, you can't just rely on words. I'm afraid the shopkeeper will personally test your fellow Taoist's alchemy skills."
Chen Ping immediately smiled and nodded, and followed Shopkeeper Liu directly to the top floor of Wanbao Hall. There was an inconspicuous room in the corner of the top floor. After knocking on the door gently, Shopkeeper Liu had not yet seen the room. When the reply came from the room, he opened the door and walked in.
The layout of the room was extremely simple, with only an old man sitting cross-legged in the center of the room.
Shopkeeper Liu brought Chen Ping to the old man, bowed deeply, and said respectfully: "Shopkeeper Xu, this Taoist friend claims to be a seventh-level alchemist, and he wants to become a fourth-level alchemist in our Wanbao Hall. Elder Xing, please ask Shopkeeper Xu to make a decision."
The old man sitting cross-legged slowly opened his eyes. After taking a look at Chen Ping with his cloudy eyes, he nodded slightly and waved his hand for Manager Liu to exit the room directly.
When only Chen Ping and Shopkeeper Xu were left in the room, the old man said in a hoarse voice: "What type of elixir are you good at refining? Can you do it in front of me?"
Chen Ping quickly smiled and cupped his hands, and then took out an alchemy furnace that had been prepared in advance.
The old man said directly: "Just sit in front of me. A seventh-grade alchemist shouldn't need the assistance of earth fire, right?"
If you want to become a seventh-level alchemist, you must at least have the strength of the golden elixir stage. The elixir fire of the golden elixir stage is the most suitable flame for alchemy, and naturally does not require the assistance of earth fire.
Of course, elixir fire is difficult to control, and earth fire is more docile, so most alchemists still prefer to use earth fire to make elixirs. The reason why shopkeeper Xu said this was just to test Chen Ping.
Chen Ping nodded in agreement, and then hurriedly sat opposite the old man.
Although Chen Ping spends most of his time refining alchemy using the human alchemy techniques, Chen Ping has also learned some of the demon clan's alchemy techniques.
As the saying goes, one method can solve all problems.
Chen Ping has almost reached the pinnacle of human alchemy. At least alchemists at the same level may not be able to surpass Chen Ping's alchemy methods.
The inheritance of human alchemy is a hundred times more difficult than the inheritance of demon alchemy. Since Chen Ping can learn the inheritance methods left by the Shennong clan, he can naturally master the demon alchemy method at his fingertips, but it is not as good as the human alchemy method. Just skilled.
So now Chen Ping can only skillfully refine some ordinary seventh-grade elixirs. As for the peak seventh-grade elixirs, the success rate is even lower.
This is where practice makes perfect.
Chen Ping practiced the alchemy of the demon race only to obtain the status of an honorary elder, and did not delve too deeply into it.
But this is enough!
Dear, this chapter is over, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
