Chapter 26 Conflict and Opportunity
Jiang Cheng's plan to continue to improve human mathematical techniques was not completed in the end. Shortly after Yue Shan left, the Mathematical Skill Academy welcomed more than a dozen aggressive outer disciples.
"Senior Brother Lu, why are you here?" Huo Wei hurriedly ran up when he saw the person coming.
"I didn't look for you, where is the new Jiang Cheng?" The person who is called Senior Brother Lu is a young man in his thirties with a vicious face. Huo Wei was a little confident in front of him.
Jiang Cheng happened to pass by and glanced at Senior Brother Lu in confusion.
"What are you looking at?" Senior Brother Lu frowned and glared at Jiang Cheng: "Call the boy named Jiang Cheng for me."
Jiang Cheng frowned slightly. How could there be such a person in this immortal place?
"Senior Brother Lu, this..." Huo Wei's expression changed. He wanted to explain, but was pushed away by this Senior Brother Lu.
"You didn't hear me?" Senior Brother Lu looked at Jiang Cheng and said coldly.
"I heard it." Jiang Cheng nodded with a blank expression and looked helpless.
"Then why don't you go quickly!" Senior Brother Lu cursed.
"If I remember correctly, the Academy of Mathematics and the Academy of Danshe are not affiliated with each other, why should I listen to you?" Jiang Cheng didn't want to worry about these messy things for the time being, but since he had bumped into it, he was not ready to admit defeat.
After hearing this, Senior Brother Lu looked up and down at Jiang Cheng several times, and curled his lips disdainfully and said, "Body Tempering Realm? Even with your cultivation level, how dare you refuse my order?"
"Appointment?" Jiang Cheng shook his head: "If it is the head of the Dan Academy, maybe it can, you can't."
"Hey~ It seems that we have to teach this ignorant boy a lesson today!" Behind Senior Brother Lu, several disciples were immediately angry and surrounded Jiang Cheng in the middle.
Jiang Cheng was not in a hurry, took out a jade crystal from his hand and said calmly: "Everyone wants to do it?"
"So what if you do it?" Senior Brother Lu looked at Jiang Cheng and said disdainfully.
"Not what, this jade crystal engraved memory formation. Everything about to happen here will soon be transmitted to the law enforcement hall. Even if the senior brother takes action, I will never fight back." Jiang Cheng played with the jade crystal in his hand and looked at the senior brother Lu in front of him with fun.
"You..." Senior Brother Lu's expression changed, he looked at Jiang Cheng and nodded fiercely and said, "Very good, I remember you. From today on, you Mathematics Academy will not want to earn a spirit stone from our Dan Academy."
"Just because of this, the previous rules should be changed. In the future, the Dan Academy will ask the Principle Academy to help calculate the fire temperature, calculate the time, estimate the materials and cost. The spirit stones need to be paid according to the ratio of the Dan generation." Jiang Cheng said calmly.
"Little Junior Brother..." Huo Wei opened his mouth when he heard this, but was blocked by Jiang Cheng's wave.
"Ha, dream! All you give to your door is for Senior Sister Bai. Since you are ungrateful, you will stop your cooperation in the future." Senior Brother Lu snorted coldly and waved his hand: "Let's go."
Seeing a group of disciples from the Dan Academy leave, Huo Wei smiled bitterly and said, "My junior brother, our Mathematical Academy is already difficult. Now that we lack this financial path, how should we maintain it in the future?"
Jiang Cheng glanced at Huo Wei, shook his head, and went straight to the attic. Seeing Huo Wei come in, he spread a piece of straw paper and started writing with a wolf's pen. At the same time, he also explained in his mouth: "To refine a furnace of elixirs, you need to calculate the proportion of the medicinal materials according to the materials. Of course, the proportion is generally included in the elixir recipe, but it is not fine. You also need to compare according to the color of the medicinal materials. The more refined the calculation, the better the quantity or the desired effect will be after the elixir is formed."
Huo Wei looked at Jiang Cheng with a puzzled look on his face.
"Take the simplest Qi-replenishing Pill for example. A bottle of ten Qi-replenishing Pill costs about one spirit stone. After putting aside the cost, it is about half a spirit stone." Jiang Cheng occasionally goes to the market town these days to understand some prices. His attainment in alchemy is also not low, so he can naturally figure it out quickly.
"So what?" Howwei still didn't understand.
"After actuation, the finished product of Qi-replenishing pill refined by the same medicinal material is 50% higher than that of the pill recipe. That is to say, if one hundred Qi-replenishing pills can be refined according to the pill recipe, one hundred and fifty can be refined after actuation, it will be a profit of five extra spirit stones. This is just a Qi-replenishing pill, blood coagulation pill, breaking elixir, Qi-condensing pill, and Peiyuan Pill, etc., which are more expensive pills, how much is the ultimate profit? Have you ever thought about it?" Jiang Cheng looked at Huo Wei and said.
"Our natural way, but..." Huo Wei looked at Jiang Cheng with a wry smile. He also had the talent in mathematics. He naturally understood these principles, but the Dan Academy is powerful and unwilling to share more profits. What can they do?
"Let's say that, you could earn ten spirit stones a day, but suddenly you could only earn one or two. What do you think?" Jiang Cheng looked at Huo Wei and smiled: "Don't forget that starting to refine alchemy without taking action has a certain chance of frying the furnace. If these are included in it, it would be good to refine a furnace of elixirs on average, let alone earning spirit stones."
"So, it won't take long to come back and ask us to help them calculate the actuarial. At that time, the rules must be established. For a furnace of elixirs, we should not fix the spirit stones, but divide the shares based on the value of the furnace of elixirs. Putting aside the profit after the materials, we will account for 30%." Jiang Cheng said calmly.
"It's impossible for them to agree." Hovie said instinctively.
"Then we won't help, let them die on their own." Jiang Cheng took a sip of water and said.
"But it's not good to both sides suffer, right?" Huo Wei looked at Jiang Cheng, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Both losers?" Jiang Cheng shook his head and said, "Senior brother is thinking too simple. If they compromise, they will naturally find ways to attract talents after they realize the role of mathematics. We are showing weakness. If the people from the Dan Academy come to us to poach, how many of them will refuse?"
"This..." Howvey didn't think about this and was stunned for a moment.
"At that time, this Mathematical Arts Academy will probably be disbanded." Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "Instead of this, it is better to take the opportunity to establish authority and set rules. Not only the cooperation between the Dan Academy, Xuanji Pavilion, and Mo Palace will follow this rule. It won't take long. We will have money and face. At that time, we are still afraid that our Mathematical Arts Academy will not grow stronger?"
"But Senior Sister Bai~" Huo Wei was still hesitant.
"She is back. If she is dissatisfied, I will tell her, but now that she is not here, just listen to me." Jiang Cheng has also understood the habits of these disciples in the Mathematical Academy during this period. He is good at studying and deducing Mathematical Arts. However, after losing the backbone, he can't even make any decisions. After all, he has been bullied for a long time.
"But what if they join forces to put pressure on it?" Howwei was still a little worried.
"The disciples in the sect are not allowed to fight each other. What are you afraid of? As for the financial path, even if you don't have them, there are more ways to make money, and there are some channels to make money. Why do you have to rely on them?" Jiang Cheng said speechlessly.
"Junior brother, do you have a channel?" Huo Wei said with his eyes.
"Yes, a lot." Jiang Cheng nodded affirmatively, patted Huo Wei's shoulder and said, "Senior brother, let it go. Whether the Mathematical Academy can be proud depends on you."
"Okay!" Huo Wei was so excited by Jiang Cheng's words that he nodded and agreed immediately, "How to do it, my junior brother said something."
"First cut off all cooperation with the Danyuan Academy and kill the chicken to scare the monkey!" Jiang Cheng said: "When they can't sit still, they will come to see me. I'm very busy these days."
"I'm alone?" Howey was a little panicked.
"There are so many senior brothers and sisters, of course you are not alone." Jiang Cheng said affirmatively.
