62: Chapter 62 Wine Card and Spirit Spring Card
Chen Hu entered the Gang hall with a leisurely pace.
He walked toward the office.
Everyone he encountered along the way stopped to greet him.
Chen Hu nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
Arriving at the office, he brewed himself a cup of tea.
He began to review the official documents.
After dealing with the few official documents, he began his daily Cultivate.
Near noon, Chen Hu stretched.
He paced out of the Gang hall and headed to a nearby restaurant for a meal.
Nowadays, he was not short on gold or silver, so there was no need to treat himself poorly regarding food and drink.
Around three in the afternoon.
Big Boss Cheng Hui, Big Boss Liu Chuang, Su Tian, along with Da Niu and Er Niu, arrived together.
"Hall Revered Master, we have already recruited fifty people according to your instructions. What do you think we should do next?"
"So fast?"
Chen Hu was somewhat surprised.
Er Niu said, "Boss, you might not know this, but during this period, disaster victims have been continuously pouring into the Prefecture City. With more people, jobs are hard to find. Although joining a Gang has certain risks, the monthly income is much better than doing odd jobs. So, as soon as we recruited, people immediately came to sign up. The ones we finally recruited were all carefully selected. On my side alone, there are three Skin Refining Martial Artist!"
"Alright, bring everyone to the Gang hall. I will screen them personally!" Chen Hu said.
His copy card could detect talent.
He could completely select the batch with the best talent from these fifty people.
Soon, those fifty people were brought to the Gang hall.
Er Niu indeed did not lie to him. The quality of this batch of people was indeed very high. Among the fifty people, there were actually 14 who had reached the Skin Refining Realm.
There was even one who had reached the Skin Refining Middle Stage.
They were all qualified to serve as small leaders.
Through the copy card, he detected the talent of this group of people. To Chen Hu's surprise, two of them had actually entered the Yellow Grade.
One of them was exactly that Skin Refining Middle Stage, while the other had never practiced martial arts.
The other party was only 16 years old, and their talent had reached the Yellow Grade Middle Stage.
First, Chen Hu picked out the 14 who had reached the Skin Refining Realm. Next, he selected the six with the best talent.
"Send the rest away with 200 wen each!"
Chen Hu said casually.
"Yes, Hall Revered Master!"
Someone immediately went to get copper coins to distribute.
"You five can divide these twenty people among yourselves!"
Chen Hu swept a glance at the five of them and said.
Hearing this, Da Niu immediately pointed at the Skin Refining Middle Stage and said, "Boss, I want him!"
"Brother Da Niu, that's not very kind of you. You can't take all the benefits for yourself. Why don't we draw lots? Whoever gets it, that person will take this brother away!" Big Boss Cheng Hui also wanted that Skin Refining Middle Stage and quickly spoke up.
"That's right, to show fairness, I also think drawing lots is better!" Big Boss Liu Chuang chimed in.
"Haha, I won't participate!" Su Tian said with a smile.
In the end, Da Niu, Big Boss Cheng Hui, and Big Boss Liu Chuang drew lots. That person fell into the hands of Big Boss Cheng Hui, which left Da Niu feeling unhappy for a while.
Inside the office.
Chen Hu pulled up the lucky draw interface.
With 20 new subordinates added, the number of his underlings increased by 20.
Reaching 387, he obtained two Elementary lucky draws.
"System, use two Elementary lucky draws!"
"Ding, Elementary lucky draw activated!"
"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining one Fine Wine Card. The prize has been stored in the System space. Please retrieve it yourself, host!"
"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining one Spirit Spring Card. The prize has been stored in the System space. Please retrieve it yourself, host!"
With a thought, the Fine Wine Card appeared in Chen Hu's hand.
The corresponding information appeared in his mind.
The Fine Wine Card could produce 10 catties of ordinary liquor or various Spirit Wine every day.
This Spirit Wine was brewed using spiritual items and was extremely expensive.
In the past, Chen Hu had only heard of it; he had never seen it, let alone drunk it.
In short, high-level and rare Cultivate resources were all in the hands of a small number of people.
Ordinary people rarely saw them.
"Activate!"
"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining a jar of Blazing Wine!"
"Retrieve!"
The next moment, Chen Hu's hand sank, and he had an extra ten-catty jar of liquor.
He opened the wine jar and found that the liquor inside was bright red. Faintly, one could see flames burning within the liquor.
"It is definitely Spirit Wine!"
Chen Hu thought to himself, just not knowing what effect this Blazing Wine actually had.
"Should I try it?"
Chen Hu found a tool, took a small mouthful of Blazing Wine from the jar, and put it into his mouth.
The liquor was gentle upon entering his mouth; it wasn't spicy at all, but rather very smooth.
After swallowing the liquor, a lingering fragrance remained in his mouth.
Then Chen Hu discovered that the Blazing Wine flowing into his stomach turned into streams of heat, spreading to his internal organs.
Soon, Chen Hu's internal organs absorbed these streams of heat.
Chen Hu clearly sensed that his internal organs seemed to have been strengthened a little.
"It can actually nourish the internal organs!"
Chen Hu was inwardly startled. It seemed that the value of this Blazing Wine was even higher than he had imagined.
After the Bone Refining Realm came the Marrow Refining Realm, and after the Marrow Refining Realm came the Organ Refining Realm.
A Marrow Refining powerhouse could dominate a whole prefecture; therefore, an Organ Refining powerhouse was a top-tier powerhouse throughout the Great Yong Kingdom.
Blazing Wine that could assist top-tier powerhouses in their Cultivate was definitely a priceless existence.
Thinking of this, Chen Hu immediately sealed the Blazing Wine and sent it into his Storage Ring.
This thing could not be exposed casually; otherwise, it would easily invite trouble.
Next, Chen Hu took out the Spirit Spring Card.
According to the information provided by the System, this Spirit Spring Card could produce 1 to 10 catties of Spirit Spring every day.
What use did this Spirit Spring have?
It could be consumed directly. Long-term consumption could nourish the Physical Body. Besides that, it could also increase one's Lifespan and repair injuries.
It could also be used to water plants. Plants watered with Spirit Spring for a long time had a high chance of transforming into spiritual plants.
"Activate!"
"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining ten catties of Spirit Spring!"
Chen Hu did not retrieve it for the time being because he had no tools on hand to hold the Spirit Spring.
After getting off work in the evening, he would go buy a few empty wine jars and put them in his Storage Ring, so that in the future, when he obtained Spirit Spring, he could use them to store it.
Wanhua Pavilion.
Courtesan's room.
Saintess Chen Luoyan asked an old woman indifferently, "Elder Mu, has there been anything unusual with the Sun family recently?"
"Replying to Saintess, there is nothing unusual!" the old woman said.
Saintess Chen Luoyan was not satisfied with this answer. She frowned slightly, "Could it be that the secret technique is really not in the hands of the Sun family?"
The old woman said, "The Sun family is already the last one. If the secret technique is not in their hands, I am afraid it will be difficult for us to find that secret technique!"
"How is the progress on Revered Master's side?"
Suddenly, Saintess Chen Luoyan changed the subject and asked.
The old woman said, "Contact has been made, but after all, the other party is a member of the royal family, so we are still testing them!"
Saintess Chen Luoyan did not say anything more, nodded and said, "Alright, I understand. Please continue to keep an eye on the Sun family, Elder Mu!"
This Elder Mu was sent by her Revered Master to assist her. She had only been here for two days, and her cultivation had reached the Marrow Refining Realm Early Stage.
Except for being three parts wary of Luo Ningshuang.
In the Linjiang Prefecture City, she could completely walk sideways.
Time arrived in the evening.
After Chen Hu got off work, he took a detour to buy a few empty wine jars.
After putting them into his Storage Ring in a place where no one was around, he headed home.
Returning home, everything at home was normal.
Widow Wang and the sisters Qianxue and Qianyu were getting along very well.
Under Widow Wang's guidance, the sisters also learned quite a few characters.
Late at night.
Chen Hu gently pushed away Widow Wang, who was in his arms.
He changed into a black robe, went out, and headed straight for the East City black market.
