Chapter 790

After Zhang Feng heard Mengdie's words, the expression on his face was extremely surprised.

Because he never thought that there would be people like alchemists in this society!

If it were placed in the pre-Qin period, alchemists were still very common.

After all, at that time, the overall level of medical treatment was not very developed, so if ordinary people were sick or injured, they would choose to boil Chinese medicine or take pills for treatment.

At that time, the main function of elixirs was to cure diseases and save lives, and a small part was used to strengthen the body.

But Zhang Feng did not expect that warriors would also take pills!

"Are there still many alchemists?"

Zhang Feng turned his head to look at Mengdie, and asked softly to Mengdie.

"Running out……"

Mengdie shook her head lightly, and then continued: "Actually, the profession of alchemist is almost disappearing now. After all, alchemy is very complicated to learn, and there is also the fact that ordinary people don't need alchemy at all. Medicine, only warriors need pills, alchemists who can refine the pills needed by warriors are not common, and my grandfather has long since stopped making pills..."

"It turned out to be like this..."

Zhang Feng looked at Mengdie and nodded slightly, but didn't say much.

"Master Zhang, I think that Yu Ruyan's purchase of so many precious medicinal materials should also have something to do with the alchemist. I suspect that Yu Ruyan must have met some powerful alchemist, so she bought so many precious medicinal materials. ..."

Mengdie said softly to Zhang Feng.

"Alchemist?"

There was a strangeness in Zhang Feng's eyes.

"Master Zhang, I also think this possibility is very high. We warriors still have a great demand for pills. If any big family can own an alchemist and produce a lot of pills, then just any pill The value of the medicinal materials may be tens of millions, and the cost of medicinal materials is nothing in front of alchemists..."

Long Chao, who has never been very talkative, also said softly.

After Zhang Feng heard what Long Chao and Mengdie said, he instantly understood what was going on.

He continued in a low voice: "What you two mean is that Yu Ruyan has found a powerful alchemist, so she will buy a lot of medicinal materials. In fact, it is to set up a production line for alchemists to refine a large number of pills. And then profit from it, right?"

"That's right, Young Master Zhang, I think that's the case, otherwise Yu Ruyan wouldn't be able to spend so much money on medicinal materials!"

Mengdie nodded slightly.

"I didn't expect there to be such a way to make money..."

Zhang Feng smiled lightly.

"The highest cost of refining a elixir is several million, but the selling price of a elixir is at least tens of millions, so the profit has directly doubled several times. If anyone can control this market, It's unbelievable..."

Long Chao looked at Zhang Feng and said.

"..."

After Zhang Feng heard this, there was a strange flash in his eyes.

If Zhang Feng can grasp this market, he will definitely be able to earn a lot of money.

It's just helpless that Zhang Feng doesn't know any alchemists at all, and he doesn't have this ability!

So no matter how envious Zhang Feng is in his heart, he can only be envious of Lin Yuan.

"Forget it, this matter has nothing to do with us. I came here this time mainly to find the medicinal materials that Ye Juechen needed. Although the medicinal materials are still far behind, Fang Zhihua can help me find these common medicinal materials. The most important thing is the medicinal plant in Hongya Cave, that is the most important..."

Zhang Feng said in a low voice.

And Mengdie was stunned for a moment after hearing Zhang Feng's words, and then hurriedly said: "Master Zhang, I asked the people here about Hongya Cave, but they all said that Hongya Cave is very Danger……"

"If it wasn't dangerous, Ye Juechen wouldn't have let me come over!"

Zhang Feng replied lightly.

Mengdie looked Zhang Feng up and down, and then said softly: "Master Zhang, since you insist on going there, then I won't persuade you. I know a person, and he is the only one who has been to Hongya in the entire Yaowang Valley." Those who came back from the cave and survived should know the specific location of Hongyadong, so if you want to go to Hongyadong, Master Zhang, we can let that person lead the way. After all, if someone who knows the way leads the way, we can also make it easier. Quite a few..."

"Okay, let that person lead the way..."

Zhang Feng nodded slightly.

"But……"

Mengdie raised her head and glanced at Zhang Feng, with a somewhat embarrassed expression on her face.

"But what?"

Zhang Feng frowned and asked.

"But this person has a weird personality. If we want this person to lead the way, we may have to have a good chat with him..."

Mengdie said slowly.

"This kind of thing is not easy. If he doesn't agree to lead us, I'll just beat him up..."

Long Chao said expressionlessly.

"This kind of thing can't be rough. After all, he is the only person in the entire Yaowang Valley who knows the location of Hongya Cave. If we offend this person, then things will be troublesome, so we should have a good chat with him. If the other party If you have any request, just try to satisfy him..."

Zhang Feng said softly to Long Chao.

Zhang Feng also knew that Long Chao had good intentions, but he had no choice but to use force to solve problems because he was too simple-minded.

In today's society, not all problems can be solved by force.

"Master Zhang, I will take you to meet that person?"

Mengdie asked Zhang Feng softly.

"OK……"

Zhang Feng nodded lightly, then walked directly towards the outside of the manor.

After leaving the manor, Mengdie took Zhang Feng around the Yaowang Valley, and finally stopped in front of an ancient building.

At this time, the door of the building was open, and Zhang Feng could clearly see a middle-aged man sitting in a rocking chair in the yard to rest.

The middle-aged man looks a little ugly, wearing a black exercise suit, he looks like an outsider.

"Uncle Zhou..."

As soon as Mengdie entered the yard, she smiled and yelled at the middle-aged man's position.

When the middle-aged man saw Mengdie coming in, he couldn't help frowning, and then said with a smile: "So it's Miss Mengdie, come in quickly..."

Mengdie hurriedly turned her head to look at Zhang Feng, and then led Zhang Feng and Long Chao towards the middle-aged man.

After coming to the middle-aged man, Mengdie wanted to introduce Zhang Feng's identity.

But before Mengdie could speak, the middle-aged man took the initiative to ask Zhang Feng: "You are going to Hongyadong, right?"

After Zhang Feng heard the middle-aged man's words, he froze in place immediately, with a very shocked expression on his face.

Because he couldn't understand how the middle-aged man knew the purpose of his visit this time!
