In an era where everyone is cultivating immortality, the system wants me to become a demon?

Chapter 205: We came because they said we could earn credits (Seeking monthly votes and subscriptions!)
Upon hearing the price of 300,000, Master Ji almost felt an urge to run away immediately.

But upon hearing the words "base salary," he patiently lowered his backside back down.

For many jobs, the base salary isn't important; commission is the main source of income. Could this alchemy workshop be the same?
"Then, how about the commission?"

Master Ji asked with great anticipation.

Then, he heard Su Yuan ask a question with a strange expression:

"Commission? What is commission?"

Master Ji: "..."

You're talking about a base salary when there's no commission!
A mere 300,000?
Even if I, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, were to deliver food or work as a security guard, I could probably earn this much!

"I'm sorry, my education doesn't allow me to accept a job with this kind of salary."

Master Ji said coldly:

"I don't care how your sect obtained my personal information, but please don't harass me again."

With that, Master Ji got up and walked outside.

But at that moment, Su Yuan spoke calmly and slowly:

"Although the base salary is only 300,000, there are countless hidden benefits to joining the Yuanjiao Dantang."

"For example, the Yuan Sect takes care of the daily spiritual energy needs of Foundation Establishment cultivators!"

"This benefit alone could reduce your monthly expenses by around 100,000."

Master Ji stopped in his tracks once again.

He turned around somewhat stiffly, and before he could ask a question, Su Yuan had already flipped his hand, and an empty spirit stone appeared in his palm.

Then, under the astonished gaze of Master Ji, the spiritual energy inside the spirit stone rapidly filled up, shining brightly.

After filling the spirit stone, Su Yuan casually tossed it to Alchemist Ji:
"Check it yourself, the goods are very pure."

"Although these repackaged spirit stones cannot be sold externally, they are quite suitable as an internal employee benefit."

Master Ji quickly checked the purity of the spiritual energy inside the spirit stone and found that what Su Yuan said was indeed true.

The purity of this spiritual energy is even higher than that of the high-quality spirit stones he bought at great expense.

If you could receive ten spirit stones of this caliber every month, it would indeed be equivalent to a salary of 100,000 yuan.

It seems... that it's not that we can't talk?

Master Ji asked cautiously:

"Does your sect offer any other benefits?"

"There are two more benefits like this."

Su Yuan nodded:

"First, by joining the Yuanjiao Dantang, you can obtain a certain amount of high-quality meat every day, which is enough to meet your and your family's needs for spirit beast meat."

"Secondly, there is a monthly quota of ten righteous path third-level golden pills or fifteen demonic path third-level golden pills."

"Let's leave aside the former; what's truly important to you is the latter."

“I remember you have a son who just started high school, right?”

“His performance in body training has always been unsatisfactory. Your family invests a lot in this area every month, but there has been no improvement.”

"Once you join the company, you can bring the three-stage Golden Elixir that you personally refined to your son. His physical progress will far exceed your imagination!"

After hearing about the three major benefits of joining the Yuan Sect, Master Ji remained silent for a moment before suddenly breaking into a smile:
"Master, you have a very accurate eye for people."

"Please be sure to let me join the Yuan Cult."

Su Yuan smiled slightly and told Master Ji to wait aside while he continued recruiting.

To be honest, the Nine Dragons Hall has already been ruthless enough in exploiting these unemployed alchemists, and even Su Yuan could not continue to withhold their salaries.

In that case, he would be hung on a streetlight.

But here's the problem: Su Yuan doesn't want to spend 500,000, but he still wants the unemployed alchemists to stay in the Yuan Sect and work hard. What should he do?
Naturally, they would replace wages with some seemingly generous but actually low-cost benefits.

The spiritual energy quota allocated to alchemists comes from the spiritual energy absorbed by artists under Yuanshi Media from the desires of the masses, which is then transformed by the Great Desire Immortal Puppet.

As the number of fans of celebrities like Xiao Wu increased, so did their desire to exploit them. The spiritual energy reserves within the Great Desire Immortal Puppet were so vast that Su Yuan couldn't possibly use it all by himself. Since he couldn't use it all, he could use it as employee benefits.

As for the meat quota, it naturally comes from the roast meat business that the Yuanjiao sect already had, and it can be obtained at cost price, which is not expensive.

There's also the quota for third-stage Golden Elixir. The elixir industry is notoriously profitable, and if you only consider the raw materials, there's practically no cost.

In short, Su Yuan saved 200,000 yuan in employee salary expenses with a cost of less than 50,000 yuan.

Five minutes later, another middle-aged, disillusioned alchemist walked into the factory.

Before Su Yuan could speak, Alchemist Ji, sitting to the side, exclaimed in surprise:
"Old He? You're here for the job interview too?"

"Old Ji!"

When the two former colleagues who had worked together at Kowloon Hall met again, they couldn't help but look at each other in bewilderment.

At first, they thought it was just a coincidence, but as every alchemist who came to apply later turned out to be a colleague of the Nine Dragons Hall, they became somewhat uneasy.

So the Yuan Cult is going to wipe out the foundation of the Nine Dragons Hall in one fell swoop!

Most of these alchemists were locals from Taihua City, and one or two of them knew Su Yuan.

This inevitably led to whispers and gossip among them.

Su Yuan has the support of Tai Bai Tian Ji and ten mentors, making his backing unmatched in Taihua City.

This shows that the Yuan Cult was not a short-lived sect; they could remain stable here for a long time.

This certainly put the alchemists at ease.

However, they had already received some inside information from other channels—that the Nine Dragons Hall had been wiped out by Su Yuan.

This left everyone speechless.

We thought the work of the Yuanjiao Dantang could save them from their dire straits... but it turns out that our dire straits were caused by you!

However, they remained silent and did not have any further thoughts.

If given a choice, no one would want to work for an illegal cult.

Now we've come to a sect founded by one of the top ten elites with impeccable credentials—that's a good thing! It's like turning from darkness to light!
Could it be that the top ten elites could create a demonic cult that wreaks havoc on the world?

It turns out, it is possible!

When the twenty unemployed alchemists who were recruited saw the six pill formulas (three righteous and three evil) and the warehouse piled high with flesh and blood materials, they all fell silent.

Su Yuan stood behind the group of alchemists and coughed lightly, saying:

"Gentlemen, the righteous three-stage golden pill is just a facade. Sales will not be very high, and its market competitiveness is not very strong."

"The main purpose of the righteous three-stage golden pill is actually to anchor the price of the demonic three-stage golden pill, so you just need to familiarize yourselves with the demonic pill formula."

"Don't feel bad, everyone. Although the materials used in alchemy are all flesh and blood, they are all approved materials."

"Since we've all worked for illegal sects, we don't need to set such high moral standards, right?"

The group of unemployed alchemists looked at each other for a long time before suddenly realizing a truth.

Su Yuan's elimination of the Kowloon Hall was definitely not out of a sense of justice; it was definitely a case of gangsters killing gangsters!
But what else can they do?
We're so poor we can't even afford to eat; there's no need to keep clinging to so-called moral principles like Kong Yiji.

So be it, let it be demonic cultivation, it's all for the sake of making a living.

After leaving the alchemists to familiarize themselves with the formulas, Su Yuan returned to the recruitment table.

Qi Hanyue, who was standing to the side, asked curiously:

"Master, why did you only hire twenty people? What about the remaining ten workstations?"

Su Yuan said calmly:
"Of the remaining ten workstations, naturally one will be for you, one for me, and..."

Before she could finish speaking, Chen Nuoyi had already arrived at the factory gate, followed by several students from the preparatory class.

"You...how did you get here?"

Qi Hanyue looked at the people behind Chen Nuoyi and discovered that they were all students with alchemy talent, discovered by Master Qiu.

When asked this question, these students replied with clear eyes:

"I don't know, Chen said we could earn credits here, so we came."
