Capítulo 3: Chapter 3: Joining as a Pharmacist_1
Ye Fan didn't immediately claim the reward but brought the two children back to Dongxiang Village first.
After dinner, Ye Fan, using fatigue as an excuse, lay down on the bed, and then he chose to claim the reward.
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the reward: 'Alchemy Dao: First Stage'"
A vast expanse of memories flooded into his mind instantly, making Ye Fan exclaim that it was too much to bear.
The Alchemy Dao involved not only alchemy but also medical skills and formulation.
Cold illnesses, fevers, complicated and various diseases, configuration of powdered medicines, and refinement of pills.
Within those memories, Ye Fan had experienced a cycle of rebirth.
He had mastered all these skills thoroughly.
When he opened his eyes, there was a hint of experience in Ye Fan's gaze.
He exhaled a breath of foul air, and Ye Fan had a comprehensive understanding of his current abilities.
Healing the sick, concocting powders and refining pills, he was proficient in every aspect.
The skill rewarded by this system wasn't the mundane alchemy of the secular world.
It was the alchemy of the six arts of cultivation!
The first stage corresponded to the Qi Cultivation Realm.
Ye Fan didn't know how the Qi Cultivation in the path of cultivation matched up with the realms of the martial path, but he knew that this skill was potent.
However, this ability wasn't without restrictions. Although Ye Fan knew how to refine pills and had pill formulas, since he lacked cultivation level and couldn't control Spiritual Fire, even if he had medicinal ingredients in front of him, he wouldn't be able to refine real pills.
For the current Ye Fan, what was useful in the Alchemy Dao were the medical skills and the configuration of powdered medicines.
Body Building Powders suitable for the Body Forging Realm, Qi Boosting Powders suitable for the Postnatal Realm, and so on.
After absorbing the memories, Ye Fan was very happy.
With these skills, it was already enough to gain a foothold in Changhe Town.
At the very least, there would be no problem with becoming a Pharmacist.
In this way, while his sons practiced martial arts and he earned money for their support, the family would definitely be able to develop slowly.
"Su Yan, how about we move?"
When she heard Ye Fan's words, Su Yan was stunned for a moment, "Move?"
"Yes, our whole family will move to Changhe Town," Ye Fan said.
"My husband, if our whole family moves to Changhe Town, how will we make a living?"
Su Yan naturally hoped to live in a better place, but they didn't have any special skills; what would they rely on for living in Changhe Town?
"Don't worry, your husband learned some medical skills a few years ago. It won't be a problem to find a clinic and work as an apprentice."
Hearing Ye Fan's words, Su Yan was shocked and then overjoyed, looking at Ye Fan with eyes full of adoration.
Her husband actually had medical skills. Wasn't her luck too good? She'd found a treasure of a man.
No, rather, a treasure of a grown man!
The Ye Family didn't have anything of value, so they rolled up their clothes and bedding and, amidst the villagers' blessings, headed for the town.
As for the old house, Ye Fan left it to Wang Dong.
They were neighbors, and since Wang Dong had brought such a good wife to Ye Fan, it was only natural for Ye Fan to show his gratitude.
Soon, Ye Fan returned to Changhe Town with his family.
After tidying up the new yard they had rented on the outskirts of Changhe Town, Ye Fan sent the two children to the Iron Armor Martial Arts Hall.
Incidentally, Ye Fan also wanted to see what martial arts were like in this world.
The fees had already been paid, and today was the official day of enrollment.
Before enrolling, there was a test conducted to check the aptitude for martial arts by feeling the bones.
Aptitude was something necessary everywhere.
Those with good aptitude could achieve in one day what took several days for someone with poor aptitude.
Moreover, when facing bottlenecks, aptitude was even more important.
After the bone-feeling test, Ye Fan received some unfortunate news.
Ye Jintian and Ye Jinhai's talents were quite mediocre, merely managing to practice martial arts, and at most, they could cultivate to the early or mid stages of the Body Forging Realm before encountering a major bottleneck.
Furthermore, it would potentially consume a large amount of resources.
There are twelve levels in the Body Forging Realm, with levels one to three being the early stage, slightly stronger than the average person.
Levels four to six mark the mid-stage of Body Forging, where one can defeat dozens of unarmed ordinary people.
At levels seven to nine, which is the latter stage of Body Forging, one begins to nurture the five viscera and six bowels, significantly enhancing their combat strength.
Against martial artists in the latter stages of Body Forging, ordinary unarmed people, no matter how many, are not a match and can be easily overcome.
And beyond the tenth level lies the Peak of Body Forging, where one starts to nurture their vitality and blood, preparing to break through to the Postnatal Realm, becoming even more powerful.
Currently, in Changhe Town, the strongest are martial artists in the ninth level of the Body Forging Realm, and there are only a few such individuals.
Among them, Mu Tie, the head of the Iron Armor Martial Arts Hall, is a powerful practitioner at the ninth level of Body Forging.
The news of poor talent did not deter Ye Fan from his determination to have his two sons practice martial arts.
For the average family, it might be impossible to support two sons with poor martial arts talent.
However, for Ye Fan, who had skills in Alchemy Dao, it would be challenging, yet not impossible.
Among the alchemy skills that Ye Fan acquired, there were formulas that could aid in Body Forging.
Given the right formula, even if it were a pig, Ye Fan could push it to the Peak of Body Forging.
Moreover, who said that martial arts talent couldn't be improved?
Ye Fan speculated that if it wasn't for the "family" entry that had appeared in the newcomer's gift package, his two sons wouldn't even have the talent for martial arts practice.
In the future, just open more entries related to talent, and everything would no longer be an issue.
Ye Jintian and Ye Jinhai successfully entered the Iron Armor Martial Arts Hall; Ye Fan did not return home but rather sought out a medical establishment, planning to find a job first.
There were not many medical establishments in Changhe Town, so Ye Fan chose a large one near his home called Five Blessings Hall.
Five Blessings, representing longevity, wealth, health, good morals, and a peaceful end—if one could choose such a name, it should be decent, right?
Upon entering the medical establishment, an elder dressed in plain long robes, with white hair and beard, sized up Ye Fan.
"Young man, what brings you here?" he asked.
"Pharmacist, I'm looking for work. Do you need help here?" Ye Fan politely inquired.
"What skills do you possess? We're not taking any apprentices at the moment."
The elder peered at Ye Fan, who didn't seem like someone knowledgeable in medical arts.
"I know some family traditional medical arts, and I can also make medicines," Ye Fan said modestly.
"You can make medicines?"
A pharmacist is a pharmacist, distinct from a medical doctor; a pharmacist who can make and control medicine formulas is certainly as valuable as a doctor.
How could one wander the world without carrying a few medicinal preparations for emergencies!
Hemostatic Powder, detoxifying powders, and the like all sold very well.
As for Body Building Powder, the entire Changhe Town only had Duobao Pavilion selling it.
One dose cost ten silver pieces—unaffordable for the average person.
Ye Fan's medicine-making skills immediately caught the attention of the old doctor.
Eager to secure employment, Ye Fan immediately offered to prepare two doses.
The doctor led Ye Fan to the backyard, and during their casual conversation, Ye Fan learned the elder's name—Wang Fu, the owner of Five Blessings Hall.
Hemostatic grass, long earthroot—Ye Fan could instantly discern the medicinal effects of each herb; they were all quality materials.
Ye Fan didn't use his original formulas but opted for simplified versions.
Even the simplified formulas were considered top-grade in this small town.
Though Wang Fu was an old doctor and not a pharmacist, he had seen and experienced enough to judge the efficacy of medicinal concoctions.
Soon, Wang Fu confirmed that this man, who looked like an old farmer, truly knew how to prepare medicines, and his skills were not weak.
Once the effectiveness was verified, Wang Fu immediately offered Ye Fan a position at Five Blessings Hall as their pharmacist.
Regarding the terms, he would earn ten silver pieces a month, tasked with preparing fifty doses of the Hemostatic Powder, and twenty doses of detoxifying powder.
Should he have the capacity to make more, each additional dose would earn him an extra coin of silver.
With ten coins amounting to one silver piece, this salary was considered high-paying employment in Changhe Town.
In any world, possessing a skill ensures one never has to worry about the basic needs of life.
