Wang Shouye waved off the formality, reminding them, “Keep an eye on the heat for this furnace of Little Pei Yuan Dan. My master said that if the success rate for this furnace reaches seventy percent again, I can move on to second-level Dan medicine.”

Little Pei Yuan Dan is the most widely used Level One dan medicine and indispensable to any clan.

Once formulated, there’s no lack of market for it. Over the years, what Wang Shouye has distilled the most is Little Pei Yuan Dan.

Most of the raw materials are supplied by the Ping’an Wang family, which has cost Wang Shouye over twenty thousand Qian Gold.

Yes, he is at a loss.

The training of an alchemist is always very costly. An alchemist, through countless failures and accumulating experience, can achieve rapid growth.

Because many people distill Little Pei Yuan Dan, the price has never exceeded ten Qian Gold. The cost of distilling a furnace of Little Pei Yuan Dan reaches up to sixty Qian Gold. Only when one can distill up to six pills per furnace can he break even. That, in essence, makes for a competent Level One Alchemist.

As of now, Wang Shouye’s average yield for a furnace of Little Pei Yuan Dan is 6.3 pills, usually fluctuating between six and seven pills. Occasionally, he would make some mistakes and yield fewer than six pills.

If he can consistently produce seven pills from each furnace, he will maintain long-term profitability. The twenty thousand Qian Gold lost by the Wang family could gradually be recovered.

“Really?!”

Hearing that they could attempt to distill second-level dan medicine, the pill-furnace servant who was on duty was instantly incredulous, his eyes wide with disbelief.

“Of course it’s true.” Wang Shouye glared at them, “Do you think I would deceive you?”

“That’s wonderful!!”

The furnace servants immediately became excited.

They knew that their young master had been studying the various theoretical knowledge of second-level dan medicine for some time. Once he becomes a true second-level alchemist, his societal status would naturally follow an upward trend.

Their status as furnace servants would also rise with the tide.

In an instant, they all became motivated and controlled the heat more diligently and attentively.

Wang Shouye, naturally, had an extremely adept hand at alchemy.

After more than two hours, the pill furnace was opened amidst steam and heat.

“One, two, three, four…” The furnace servants immediately leaned in to count, audibly calling out the numbers.

Wang Shouye’s heart suddenly rose.

“Six … seven!” The furnace servants were ecstatic. “Master Seven, there are seven Little Pei Yuan Dan!”

“Phew, that’s great~”

Wang Shouye let out a sigh of relief, feeling equally excited.

This is his third consecutive furnace from which he has managed to get seven pills, which means he has earned ten Qian Gold from this furnace. This also signifies a significant improvement in his recent skill level!

Wang Shouye couldn’t help but beam with joy.

In fact, he has been under a lot of pressure over the years.

The cost of fifty years worth of Purple Leaf Dioscorea and auxiliary materials isn’t low, but his fourth brother’s supply has never been interrupted. When he first started, he made a complete loss out of every furnace, only gradually increasing from one or two pills per furnace to six or seven now after more than nine years.

The hardships and pressures during this time are truly difficult for outsiders to comprehend.

The news that Wang Shouye had successfully managed to distill seven Little Pei Yuan Dan once again quickly spread throughout the Danfang.

This indicates that he has now become a fully fledged Level One Alchemist who can reliably turn a profit, rather than narrowly being able to distill Level One Dan medicine.

An alchemist at this level of proficiency would be able to find a firm foothold in any Danfang and hold a certain societal status.

Meanwhile…

Inside the storefront of the Xu Family Danfang, two seated Level One Alchemists exchanged glances after hearing the news.

They were both in their fifties and had toiled for over thirty years to become profitable Level One Alchemists.

Yet, Wang Shouye had managed the feat in a mere nine years.

Indeed, comparisons are odious.

Alchemist A, sighed, “This Wang Shouye… Apart from coming from a good family, having money, and good looks, how is he better than us?”

“Back in the day, we were all tested to have a knack for alchemy.” Alchemist B also didn’t mince words. “But starting from the role of furnace servants after becoming apprentices, wasn’t each step arduous? Getting a rare opportunity to distill a furnace of dan was cause for gratitude. Wang Shouye simply relies on his wealthy family, distilling one furnace after another with no regard for costs. It’s all forced growth.”

“If I had that lineage, I assure you, I would have progressed faster.”

Just as the two middle-aged alchemists were going on with their acidic and endless complaints…

In the alchemy workshop…

Two groups of young girls suddenly appeared.

Leading one group was a radiant young woman of about eighteen or nineteen wearing a sky-blue silk dress, her grace and beauty quite striking.

At the front of the other group was a youthful and beautiful girl, clad in a red Fire Spirit Silkworm Silk Outfit, giving off a bit of a feisty vibe.

The two of them were each surrounded by four or five girls of a similar age—clearly, they were not ordinary folks.

Seeing the girl in the blue dress, the girl in the red outfit gave a sneering glance. “Huangfu Qianqian, you’ve got some nerve to come support our Wang Shouye. Aren’t you aware of the mess between your Huangfu Clan and our Wang family?”
