Chapter 7

Super Godly Potion Shop, Pharmaceutical Department.

Bai Xiaowen wiped the glass window meticulously, but his eyes scanned the herbs under the window. His left eye glowed with a faint red light, and the information of the herbs flowed into his mind.

Silver Leaf Grass

Grade: 1

Year: 3 years and 7 months

Composition: Energy (life particles) 12.7%, plant fiber 85.1%, impurities (phloem tissue, phosphorus, water, etc.) 2.2%

"Silver Leaf Grass is the most basic medicinal herb. It grows in dark and humid places. Because its leaves contain phosphorus, it emits a faint silver light."

Bai Xiaowen recalled the knowledge he learned in the "General Knowledge" class, and then used the information obtained by his insight talent to verify it.

"Silver Leaf Grass contains life particles and is one of the ingredients for the 'Silver Light Potion'. The effect of the Silver Light Potion is to restore a certain amount of life, but the grade is only level 1, so it's less useful for awakened ones... "

Bai Xiaowen had been working part-time in the pharmaceutical department of Super Godly Potion Shop for a week. With his insight talent and super brain, he memorized the composition of hundreds of herbs and the ratio of dozens of potions.

However, making potions was not as simple as mixing a few herbs. The sequence, placing time, temperature control, and so on required a lot of experience and brilliant eyesight. Bai Xiaowen was only a part-time apprentice at the lowest level. He was not qualified to be a pharmacist's assistant and could not enter the preparation room. Naturally, he could not see the process of making potions.

Now, the opportunity had come.

Sun Hecheng, a senior pharmacist in the pharmaceutical department, had an assistant named Zheng Li who had successfully passed the assessment and was promoted to a junior pharmacist.

Zheng Li was a newly promoted pharmacist and needed an assistant. Sun Hecheng's assistant position was also vacant. In this way, the pharmaceutical department had two more assistant positions.

In the past few days, the circle of apprentices in the pharmaceutical department was restless. Unlike Bai Xiaowen, the other apprentices had basically graduated from university. It was easy for them to find a formal job. Why did they come here to do some odd jobs? Wasn't it to learn how to make potions?

Becoming an assistant was the first and most crucial step in learning how to make potions.

However, it was not so easy to be an assistant. According to the rules, applicants had to first participate in a strict written test, and then enter the interview according to the ratio of three to one. Finally, the pharmacist himself would choose an assistant. This kind of competitive pressure was more intense than the civil service examination in another time and space.

The written test would be held at eight o 'clock tonight. Apart from a few apprentices who knew that they had no hope, most of them had already signed up. No one wanted to miss this opportunity.

At a table not far from Bai Xiaowen, a group of senior apprentices were whispering to each other.

"I'm going to be the denominator for the selection of assistants this time. There's basically no hope."

"That's right. More than a hundred people are fighting for two spots. The competition is too intense. We don't have much hope. "

"The one with the most confidence is still Boss Zong Jie," someone said.

Zong Jie sat in the middle of the group of apprentices. He had some connections in the Super Godly Potion Shop and was usually quite prestigious in the circle of apprentices. He formed cliques and cliques and was just like the head of the apprentices in the pharmacy hall.

Hearing everyone's discussion, Zong Jie waved his hand and said, "You're all mistaken. It seems like there are two spots, but in fact, there is only one."

"Ah?"

"Why is that?"

Bai Xiaowen also pricked up his ears.

Zong Jie said slowly, "Do you know Zheng Sen who came two months ago? He's Zheng Li's cousin. It was also Zheng Li's recommendation that he could enter our pharmacy. Now that Zheng Li has advanced to become a pharmacist, when he's choosing an assistant, will he not use his cousin? "

The group of people around him sighed. When the pharmacy department was choosing an assistant, the opinion of the pharmacist was very important. If Zheng Li insisted on using an apprentice as his assistant, the shop would not object. With the close relationship between the Zheng brothers, it was basically certain that Zheng Sen had locked onto Zheng Li's spot.

Zong Jie said with a hint of disdain, "I didn't care about Zheng Li's spot in the first place. He's just a newly advanced pharmacist. How much can he know? Master Sun is a high-level pharmacist and is very knowledgeable. His success rate in making medicine is ranked in the top three in our department. A great teacher produces great students. Only under Master Sun will there be a day of success. "

"That's right. Boss, after becoming Master Sun's assistant, you'll probably be able to graduate in less than a year. At that time, don't forget to guide your brothers." The apprentices around Zong Jie repeatedly praised him, as if Zong Jie had already been promoted.

Zong Jie's face was full of pride. He looked around and suddenly saw Bai Xiaowen cleaning the window. He frowned slightly.

A few days ago, Manager Fan Jianwei, who had just resigned from the pharmacy, specially mentioned Bai Xiaowen in a private meeting.

Although Fan Jianwei did not elaborate, Zong Jie could roughly guess that Fan Jianwei's resignation had something to do with Bai Xiaowen. After getting Fan Jianwei's promise, Zong Jie promised to teach Bai Xiaowen a lesson and even chase him out of the Super Godly Pharmacy.

In the past week, Zong Jie and his small gang had caused a lot of trouble for Bai Xiaowen. However, Bai Xiaowen was hardworking and did his job impeccably. He was even more outstanding than some of the veteran apprentices. This gave Zong Jie no chance to make things difficult for him.

A fat apprentice followed Zong Jie's gaze and saw Bai Xiaowen. He rolled his eyes and quickly thought of an idea to curry favor with his boss. He waved his hand and said, "Bai Xiaowen, come here! Clean up all the medicine cabinets on this side. "

There were thousands of compartments in the medicine cabinets, and it was not easy to clean them all.

Bai Xiaowen slowly straightened his back, threw away the rag in his hand, and glanced at the fat apprentice.

"What are you waiting for? Go, go!" the fat apprentice said loudly. As a member of Zong Jie's small gang, he was already used to ordering new apprentices to do work.

"Why don't you go?" Bai Xiaowen said calmly.

The fat apprentice's face darkened.

"Yo, you're all grown up now!" The surrounding people also started to jeer.

The fat apprentice's face turned red, and he scolded angrily, "Who do you think you are? How can you compare to us? I've been in the profession for five years. You newbie don't know the rules! "

Bai Xiaowen curled his lips and revealed a sarcastic sneer. "You've been in the profession for five years. Not only can you not be a pharmacist, you can't even be an assistant. I really don't know how you survive."

"You!" The fat acolyte was infuriated after his sore spot was exposed.

Zong Jie stood up and stared at him coldly, "Bai Xiaowen, go clean the medicine cabinets."

Bai Xiaowen did not move.

Zong Jie's authority was challenged, and his tone became impolite, "We all have to take the assistant selection test, and we don't have time tonight. If you don't do these chores, who will? You won't be able to do anything even if you complain to the supervisor! "

"Is that so?" Bai Xiaowen had a strange smile on his face, "I'm sorry, but I have to take the test too. I don't have time."

"What?"

"Did I hear that right?"

The few senior apprentices beside Zong Jie all let out strange cries.

"Bai Xiaowen, do you really think you're that big of a deal? You've only been in the profession for a week, and you want to be promoted to an assistant? Are you dreaming? "Zong Jie sneered," Even the apprentices who have been in the profession for half a year don't dare to apply. You? Why don't you look in the mirror? "

"I've looked in the mirror before," Bai Xiaowen pursed his lips, "I'm more handsome than you, much more handsome."

"Xiao Bai face …" Zong Jie looked at Bai Xiaowen's handsome face and felt discouraged, but more than that, he was angry, "Just wait and see. After today's test, I'll become Master Sun's assistant. I'll definitely teach you a lesson!"

The clock rang at eight o 'clock.

Sun Hecheng, with a square face, thick eyebrows, and big eyes, appeared in the lobby of the pharmaceutical department. The apprentices were already in position.

"Are all the registered apprentices here? We're preparing for the test, "Sun Hecheng said briefly, and then added," Pharmacist Zheng Li has already decided on the assistant candidates, so he won't be hosting the test. This time, there's only one assistant position. According to the ratio of three to one, the top three will be selected for the interview. Everyone, work hard. "
