Original God: I can earn experience points

Chapter 242 Chunxiang Kiln (Two in One)

"That's what all unscrupulous merchants say to their customers."

Paimon put his hands on his hips and looked at the fat businessman in front of him with suspicion.

"Hey, I'm definitely different from those people." Shitou waved his hand. "If you don't believe me, go ask the old lady who buys kites across the street. She must know that my Jie Cui Hang has never been troubled by any customers."

"Hehe, if the goods are good, just take them out for a stroll. We want a batch of top-quality Night Stones."

Paimon obviously misquoted the allusion again, but the meaning was very clear.

"Okay, I will definitely not let you down!"

Shitou immediately took out a batch of stones that he had just purchased recently.

"This is a sample from a batch of newly mined Yebo stones from a mine near Mingyun Town. Please take a look. It is large and complete."

The fat merchant Shi Tou placed the Yemo Stone on a table covered with a cloth and moved it in front of Li Qiuzhi and the others.

"For the Night Moor Stone, it doesn't seem that important to be complete. Could you please cut off a small part for us to examine?"

Li Qiuzhi picked up the Yebo Stone and looked at it carefully twice but found nothing, so he decided to try the method recommended by Zhongli.

"Oh? You seem to be experts." Shitou looked at the two people in front of him with some surprise, "Of course it's possible."

According to his own experience, the quality of these Yebo stones is very good, but he doesn't think these young people can see anything.

So he just cut a small piece of stone for them.

In order to avoid causing too much waste, he would not admit that he was stingy because Yebo Stone was a special stone that could be used for night lighting.
"Oh, you're slicing radish so thinly?"

Paimon looked at the almost transparent slices shaved from the Night Stone with some disdain.

"Hehe, don't blame me, don't blame me. The Night Stone is very valuable, and I can't bear to give you more."

Shitou answered calmly.

"alright."

Li Qiuzhi smiled indifferently. After all, it was good enough that the boss was willing to cut out some scraps for testing. He couldn't ask for more.

According to the plot of the game, such a thin piece of Yebo stone cannot directly come into contact with the fire element, and its brightness needs to be tested in a gentle way by boiling it in water.

They did the same thing.

It's very simple, and there's no need to go to the Hill Chow Iron Pot in Dadaupa Valley as in the game plot.

As an adventurer, Ying herself stored an iron pot and water in the load-bearing space.

So just go to the corner next to you and use the fire element of Li Qiuzhi's evil eye to boil a pot of hot water.

Then Paimon put the Nightmoor stone in.

Not long after, it began to emit a faint blue light.

"It doesn't seem to be too bright, so it should not be of very good quality." Ying put her white fingers on her lower lip and said after thinking for a while.

"Let's go ask the boss if he has other batches of Yebo Stone."

Li Qiuzhi also felt that the light was a little dim.

It seemed that Shi Tou felt that Li Qiuzhi and the others were really interested in buying a large number of Yebo Stones, so he agreed to their request.

This time he cut off a piece of scrap from each of the other two batches of Yebo Stone.

After expressing his gratitude, Li Qiuzhi returned to the corner and began to test the brightness of the Yebo Stone again, or to be more precise, its affinity with the fire element.

In this test, he placed three thin slices of Yebo stone into the pot at the same time.

This makes it possible to clearly see the brightness contrast.

"Grrrrrr!"

The water was boiling in the pot, and the thin slices of Yebo Stone slowly emitted a faint blue light. Compared to the first piece of stone, the second piece seemed to be a little darker than the first.

But the third piece of Yebo Stone was actually brighter than the other two pieces combined!
"This should be it. The light it emits is as bright as that of a candle. It must be a high-quality Night Stone!"

Paimon said with a slightly excited tone.

"Well, let's go to the boss and get the same batch of goods as this one."

Li Qiuzhi nodded his head slightly.

Next, I successfully bought enough Yebo Stones from the fat boss. When I asked about the purpose of the Yebo Stones, I learned that they were for Prince Yan to hold the "Sending Immortal Ceremony".

The fat boss gave a 20% discount, but it still cost him 160,000 Mora.

Originally he wanted to give it to them for free, but was politely declined by Li Qiuzhi and the others. After all, the boss has his own good intentions, and they couldn't really let him give away so many Yebo Stones for free.

Finally a discount compromise.

Of course, this was not Li Qiuzhi's own money, but was funded by the "rich man" Gongzi. It must be said that the guy did a good job in the details of building good relationships with people.

He was really willing to spend money. It was said that other matters of the "Sending Immortal Ceremony" were also funded by the "Young Master".

After settling the matter of Yebo Stone, Li Qiuzhi and the others started heading towards the "Wangsheng Hall".

It only took a short while to cross the wooden arch bridge to arrive, and at this time Zhongli had just returned here after buying the colorful flowers.

"Oh? It seems you are ready too."

Zhongli looked at the people who returned with a box of Yebo Stone and nodded.

"Yes, the best night stone is already here, so is there anything else to do next?"

Paimon said with a smile.

"Well, just leave the things here. Someone in the synagogue will take them to the jeweler to make them into the instruments needed for the ceremony.

"The only thing left now is to make the neon flower into a perfume."

Zhongli said calmly, holding his fingers to his chin.

"Ointment? Why do we need ointment?" Paimon asked with some confusion.

"This is for worshipping the gods." Zhongli explained briefly, "No one I know can make the ointment by hand, so I'll have to trouble those ladies in the city who love to dress up to make it."

"As expected of you, you are a guest of Wangsheng Hall. It sounds like you only know rich people."

Paimon said this with envy, then turned halfway in the air and looked at Ying next to him and said:

"By the way, you are also a girl, can you make ointment?"

"I'm OK with cooking, but I've never made ointments before." Ying crossed her arms and shook her head, her golden hair swaying a bit, "Then can you, Paimon?"

She said, looking at little Paimon with a smile.

"Uh, I don't know either." Paimon touched the metal crown floating on his head a little embarrassedly.

"We don't know many girls in Liyue Harbor, why don't we go to the Adventurer's Guild and ask Catherine first."

Ying thought for a moment and said.

Li Qiuzhi had no objection. Making ointment was not something he was good at. However, he remembered that in the game plot, he had to find Ying'er, Timaus' future girlfriend, to make the ointment.

I vaguely remembered that her location seemed to be on a street near the Adventurer's Guild, so it should not be difficult to find.

"Well, go ahead. Here are three kinds of colorful flowers, namely 'Golden House Hidden Beauty', 'Shan Yin Brocade Cluster', and 'Piao Miao Xian Yuan'. You need to use them to make three different ointments." Zhongli handed the wooden box containing the colorful flowers to Li Qiuzhi.

"Wow, are there so many categories of colorful flowers?" Paimon looked surprised.

“Haha, that’s natural. It’s getting late now, and it will be very late by the time you find someone to make the ointment.

"Tomorrow morning, you will continue to come to the Hall of Rebirth with the incense, and we will go to the Seven Days Statue outside the city to offer them to the 'Emperor of Rock King'.

"It depends on which one he likes. I can tell you about neon flowers on the way."

Zhongli said with a chuckle.

After leaving the Hall of Rebirth, Ying put the colorful flowers into the weight-bearing space, and came to the Adventurer's Association with Li Qiuzhi and Paimon.

But he found that Catherine was busy settling commissions for adventurers and was not available at the moment.

Just when a few people were wondering whether they should disturb them, Li Qiuzhi saw a woman standing next to the association's bulletin board, posting something.

If he remembered correctly, it seemed to be Sister Lan, the vice president of the Liyue Adventurers Association branch.

"Little Paimeng, it's time to show off your social talents." Li Qiuzhi said to Paimeng with a smile.

"Okay, okay, there's really nothing I can do about you." Paimon looked proud and helpless.

"Hello!" Paimeng said to Sister Lan with a smile.

"What's the matter, little guy?" Sister Lan looked at Paimon with a look of surprise. Perhaps she didn't expect to see a cute humanoid elf in the city.

"Hey, we want to ask, do you know where we can help make ointment?"

Paimon stated his purpose.

"Ointment? Sorry, I rarely use these things, so I'm not too sure... Well, I'll ask other girls in the association for you."

Sister Lan shook her head at first, but seeing that the elf was so polite, she was more willing to provide further help.

Sister Lan asked Li Qiuzhi and the others to wait for a moment, and then walked into the reception desk of the Adventurers' Association.

In addition to Catherine, the receptionist, there are other clerks who organize the order forms.

Soon, Sister Lan finished her question and answered with a chuckle, "If you want to hire someone to make perfume, you can go to Chunxiang Kiln to find Ying'er. According to everyone, her handmade perfume is very popular among girls, and many rich girls will ask her to help make perfume."

"Chunxiang Kiln?" Paimeng had never heard of this place and looked puzzled.

"Well, it seems to be in the porcelain shop on the street behind. You should be able to find it if you look slowly over there."

Sister Lan said.

After listening to this, Li Qiuzhi thought to himself that although there were some differences in the process, they still ended up finding Miss Ying'er of Chunxiang Kiln.

He nodded and said to Sister Lan: "Thank you, then we will go look for it first."

"Okay, I wish you all the best." Sister Lan smiled.

With the clues, Li Qiuzhi and his team quickly found Chunxiang Kiln on the opposite street.

This is a small shop with flower pots outside the door, exuding various faint floral scents. It is not difficult to find. Inside the shop, there is a young woman, polishing the grayed porcelain.

"Hello, are you Miss Ying'er?" It was Paimon who asked the question, just like Ying's "super diplomat".

"Oh? Could it be that even foreigners have heard of my Ying'er's name?"

Ying'er said in surprise.

Li Qiuzhi, who has the appearance of a Liyue person, does not look like a foreigner, but fluorescent golden hair is generally rare in Liyue. As for Paimon, the flying elf, she cannot determine her nationality.

"Yes, we would like you to help make some ointment to give to Emperor Yan."

Ying answered with a smile without denying it.

"Lord Yan," Ying'er said with a slightly sad look when she heard that it was for the Emperor Yan who passed away for unknown reasons, "So it's for Lord Yan? In that case, I won't charge you for the labor."

Although she doesn't sell perfume, the handmade perfume she makes is very famous. People who come to her don't come to sell porcelain but to ask for help in making perfume.

"No, no, no, how can this be possible!
"We didn't buy the ointment to commemorate the Rock King personally.

"It's for the 'Send the Immortals Ceremony', and we have a big sponsor to support us, so there's no need to save money for us. Just give us a high price!"

Paimon waved his hands and said with a smile on his face.

"I see. But even so, as subjects under Lord Yan's rule, we cannot do such dishonest things. I will give you a 50% discount."

Ying'er nodded to show that she understood.

"Well, that's fine. Here are three kinds of colorful flowers that need to be made into ointment." Ying took out the box of colorful flowers that Zhongli bought from the weighted space.

"'Golden House Hidden Beauty', 'Shanyin Brocade Cluster', 'Piaomiao Xianyuan'. Yes, they are all high-quality colorful flowers."

Ying'er observed the flowers carefully and was very impressed with their quality. She then said jokingly:
"However, there is no need for so many kinds of ointments to be presented to Lord Yan, right? Are the remaining ones to be given to some girl?"

When she said this, she was looking at Li Qiuzhi.

She had seen many couples who came together to ask for help in making ointments, and being a sensitive person, she felt that this young boy and the girl next to him had the atmosphere of lovers.

“Uh, this one isn’t.”

When Li Qiuzhi was about to explain something, he suddenly realized that he had never given Ying and Fischl anything, a gift between lovers that could express his feelings.

Hiss~ Isn't this a bit unacceptable for a boy?

When he was on Earth, he had never even held a girl's hand, and all the social skills in his mind were just talk.

Fortunately.

Travel to the continent of Teyvat and awaken the inherent talent of "Entangled Favor".

As Fischl and Ying's impression of me increased to a certain level.

Even if they don't perform perfectly, they are very tolerant of themselves, so they can get together smoothly.

It seems that I haven't done enough.

I haven't even given Fischl and Ying any gifts. I'll have to find a chance to make it up to them later. Just like Ying'er said, it's okay to just give them ordinary ointment. The main thing is to express my feelings.

But it seems a bit inappropriate to prepare for the "Ceremony of Sending Off the Immortals" now.

We can only talk about it after some time.

"Haha, it seems I was right."

Ying'er looked at Li Qiuzhi's stuck expression and nodded, with an expression that said, "I understand."

"Haha, Miss Ying'er does have some truth to it. I really need to give some gifts to girls who are willing to be with me to express my feelings.

"However, these ointments are indeed offered to the Emperor. It's just that after the three kinds of ointments are made, we have to choose the one that the Emperor likes and use it in the ceremony of sending immortals."

Li Qiuzhi said this and tried to hold Ying's hand inadvertently, but Ying noticed and immediately crossed her arms without giving him a chance, saying:

"Humph, idiot, who cares what gift you give me!"

[Ying has developed a favorable impression of you, gaining 150 points of favorable impression, and the current favorable impression level is Lv.9 (795/900)]
