Chapter 461: Chapter 404: Pharmaceutical Factory Assembly Line
Inside the Artifact Refining Laboratory.
Ye Xingli glanced at Zhang Yu nearby, observing his artifact refining results, and pondered, “Has he already managed to stably produce Level 5 Celestial Azure Sand?”
“Although Zhang Yu started a bit behind, his ability to advance his artifact refining skills to this point within a month, while simultaneously undergoing Civil Engineering Departnt courses, shows his strong learning capability in this area.”
“If he continues to maintain this state, changing departnts might not be impossible after all…”
At that mont, Ye Xingli noticed the jade bracelet casually exposed from Zhang Yu’s sleeve.
“Is this… the Yin Yang Bracelet?” Ye Xingli’s eyes shifted as he asked, “Zhang Yu, is the magic treasure you have newly purchased?”
Zhang Yu turned around and revealed the bracelet, saying, “Senior, are you referring to this?”
“It’s the body refining magic treasure lent to by Director Gao.”
Previously, Director Gao ntioned he would find a magic treasure to enhance Zhang Yu’s body refining efficiency.
However, after more than half a month had passed without any news, Zhang Yu initially thought the matter had been forgotten.
But a few days ago, the bracelet was delivered, and he was told it was lent for his use until his physical strength reached Level 20.
This bracelet, nad the Yin Yang Bracelet, allows one, upon imbuing it with mana, to absorb spiritual chanism constantly with the day-night alternation, balancing the yang energy and yin essence within, thus achieving body tempering and strengthening flesh and blood.
“Yin Yang Bracelet…” Ye Xingli thought, “This is the magic treasure newly refined by Master, it hasn’t been put on the market yet? So, it’s given to Director Gao for lending to Zhang Yu?”
“Master treats Director Gao exceedingly well…”
Thinking of this, Ye Xingli sighed, “Director Gao has gone to great lengths to support your artifact refining, even going so far as to specially borrow such a body refining magic treasure for you, allowing you to temper your body while refining artifacts.”
Zhang Yu was startled upon hearing this and quickly denied, “Director Gao isn’t aware that I am refining artifacts.”
Ye Xingli was slightly taken aback, “Hmm?”
Zhang Yu added, “Senior, Director Gao dislikes refining artifacts; please make sure not to reveal my activities here to anyone in the Civil Engineering Departnt.”
“Every ti I co here to refine artifacts, I ask a roommate to book the laboratory for , just to avoid the information leaking.”
anwhile, Zhang Yu thought to himself, “Isn’t Magnetic Pole True Monarch the one who said Ye Xingli would keep it secret? Why does it feel like there is no sense of confidentiality at all, even stating that Director Gao supports my artifact refining?”
Ye Xingli felt slightly puzzled, thinking, “I distinctly rember Master clearly saying that Director Gao wanted Zhang Yu to change departnts.”
Noticing the contradiction in the conversations between them, Ye Xingli slightly frowned, thinking, “Why does Zhang Yu say Director Gao dislikes his artifact refining… Did I rember incorrectly?”
Ye Xingli was certain she hadn’t recalled wrongly, and there was one more thing she could confirm, which was that both Zhang Yu and Master requested her not to ntion the matter to Director Gao.
“Sothing’s off.”
“Things are seriously out of sync.”
“Could it be that it’s not Director Gao who wants Zhang Yu to change departnts, but rather…”
A figure flashed in her mind, prompting Ye Xingli to halt her speculations.
Gazing at Zhang Yu, who still focused on refining Level 5 Celestial Azure Sand, she murmured to herself, “Impossible.”
“Doesn’t make sense.”
“Master and Director Gao have hundreds of years of friendship.”
“Certainly, there’s sothing I haven’t thought through clearly.”
Ye Xingli also recalled Zhang Yu’s relationship with Wen Wuya.
Magnetic Pole True Monarch, Director Gao, Zhang Yu, Wen Wuya, Artifact Refining Departnt, Civil Engineering Departnt, Sky Sword University…
Ye Xingli felt overwheld by a dense fog obscuring everything, making the situation profoundly unfathomable.
…
Wanfa University City.
Sublevel one.
Zhang Yu and Le Mulan were making their way through the Magnetic Channel, heading toward sublevel nine.
Zhang Yu curiously asked, “Are you also heading to Tianlan Pharmaceutical’s factory?”
Le Mulan nodded and said, “Our departnt has always cooperated with Tianlan Pharmaceutical.”
“This ti, Tianlan Pharmaceutical is expanding new production lines, and my ntor asked to assist with the production line adjustnts.”
Since becoming apprenticed to the ntor’s tutelage, Le Mulan began studying self-producing pharmaceutical technologies.
What is referred to as self-producing pharmaceutical technologies involves using the body as a cauldron, mana as the fuel, to refine ingested herbs into various elixirs.
This approach, unlike comrcial factories, does not allow mass production of dicines but correlates with cultivation and pharmaceutical grade, eliminating the need to invest substantial funding and ti in setting up production lines. The direction of drug production can also be adjusted conveniently, making it very suitable for high-end pharmaceutical routes.
Moreover, participating in such pharmaceutical production line adjustnt processes also perfectly suits cultivators like Le Mulan for involvent in testing work.
Le Mulan looked at Zhang Yu and asked, “Are you also here for the pharmaceutical factory expansion?”
Zhang Yu nodded, mories of Director Gao recruiting him for the pharmaceutical project flashing in his mind.
This pharmaceutical project has a massive supply of dicines daily. The project involves underground construction, which is ideal for practicing the second extre of the Seven Extres of Civil Engineering, the Desolate Mountain Shifting Power, and the inco is quite decent.
“Director Gao probably hopes I can enjoy good food and drink at this site while seizing every mont to cultivate the Desolate Mountain Shifting Power and simultaneously enhance physical strength.”
“Although my Desolate Mountain Shifting Power has actually been upgraded to Level 20 not long ago…”
Zhang Yu thought to himself, “Anyway, coming to this site allows to consu more dicine and earn more money; it’s still quite worthwhile.”
After all, Zhang Yu now has the expense-heavy project of Artifact Refining; he’s willing to do anything that can make him more money.
In a blink of an eye, the two of them arrived at the entrance of Tianlan Pharmaceutical’s factory, only to see a large group of Qi Refinent novices gathered there, seemingly waiting for sothing.
Among them, soone spotted Zhang Yu and Le Mulan, their eyes sweeping across the Wanfa University ranking above the two’s heads, with a flicker of reverence and envy in their eyes.
As Zhang Yu looked at the rankings above these Qi Refinent novices’ heads, he thought to himself, “Guangliao Technical Vocational College?”
“Are these all vocational college students?”
anwhile, amidst the crowd, a line of text projected from the Spirit Realm appeared at the entrance of the factory: Recruiting operators this ti, salary 0.0003 spirit coins/hour, registration point →
With the appearance of this text, the Qi Refinent novices on site began to stir, all pushing toward the direction indicated by the arrow.
Watching this scene, Zhang Yu realized that these vocational college students were here to apply for jobs at the pharmaceutical factory.
anwhile, Xiao Qingxuan’s figure appeared in front of Zhang Yu, saying lightly, “You ca?”
“Just in ti, there’s a new plant that needs to be urgently established over here. You can help dig the foundation using the Desolate Mountain Shifting Power.”
After bidding farewell to Le Mulan, Zhang Yu followed Xiao Qingxuan into the pharmaceutical factory and realized he was heading in the sa direction as the vocational college students.
Curiously, Zhang Yu asked, “Are these vocational college students also going to the new production line?”
Xiao Qingxuan nodded: “The situation is urgent and there are no blueprints. I’ll take you to the plant they are currently using; then, we will build one just like it.”
Zhang Yu followed him to the entrance of one plant and heard a pharmaceutical factory manager speaking: “We’re not hiring those who only have regular remains.”
A vocational college student replied, “I’ve put my body through intense training for 8 years, working hard day and night, consuming countless dicines; I won’t lose to those Magic Remains!”
The manager sneered and said, “Your body that you trained single-handedly, do you think it can compare to the Magic Remains developed by experts, manufactured by big companies, updated through generations, and composed of the wisdom of countless people?”
“Moreover, assembly line work requires standardization. Everyone’s body size and shape are different; how can it be standardized?”
“If you want to join the factory, first install Magic Remains.”
“If money is lacking, we can provide rental services.”
“If you are unwilling to invest money, what kind of work are you trying to do?”
The vocational college student hesitated for a mont and saw many classmates rushing up: “I’ll borrow! I’ll borrow!”
Zhang Yu dismissed this, knowing that on the second level, whether being a student or looking for employnt, Magic Remains are a massive advantage, sothing he had grown accustod to.
The next mont, he and Xiao Qingxuan entered the plant, suddenly discovering vocational college students being sent onto the assembly line.
“Sell or store hands and feet?”
“If storing, the storage fee will be deducted from the salary.”
As the cutting sounds of swish swish swish filled the air, Zhang Yu saw one vocational college student after another getting their limbs sliced off and chest cavities opened, then uniformly fitted with tool-like hand Magic Remains and organ Magic Remains for digestion and endocrine adjustnt.
Each vibrant human body was sent onto the assembly line, and amidst the splattering blood, was transford into standardized assembly line operators of various models.
Watching this scene, Zhang Yu was taken aback and couldn’t help but exclaim, “What the heck… a slaughterhouse?”
Xiao Qingxuan replied, “How can it be slaughter? It’s just uniformly swapping out work Magic Remains to facilitate installation on the production line.”
“After unified adjustnt, the digestive system can be collectively fed through feeding tubes…”
“Once the endocrine system is adjusted, it can enhance the absorption effects of dicines…”
“After all, the factory is not a school; operators are on the assembly line 24 hours a day, with all maintenance work conducted on the line as well.”
Seeing the operators continuously produced on the assembly line, Zhang Yu felt as if these people had been turned into one component after another, eventually being assembled onto the pharmaceutical factory’s production line.
Through Xiao Qingxuan’s introduction, Zhang Yu learned that the pharmaceutical factory had recently recruited more operators due to the expansion.
The plant he’s aiding in constructing today is precisely the assembly line factory producing these operators.
Xiao Qingxuan reminded, “Use your Eye Remains to record the plant’s data and try to replicate it one-to-one.”
Observing the speed at which operators were continuously produced on the assembly line, Zhang Yu couldn’t help but ask, “Isn’t this enough?”
Xiao Qingxuan stated, “The operators produced here are not only supplying this factory area but other areas as well.”
“Recently, the intensity of university warfare has increased, boosting pharmaceutical sales. Many pharmaceutical companies have predicted that future warfare will further expand and have decided to establish new production lines, leaving a considerable gap in standardized assembly line operators.”
