Chapter 523, Feng Jianzhong

“What?!” Upon hearing Grandmaster Lan Wen’s words, the female attendant beside him looked utterly shocked. Seeing the sincere expression on the face of the Grandmaster she respected, her eyes were filled with disbelief.
Grandmaster Lan Wen had actually apologised to a young man?!
Moreover, did this not mean that the Pill the young man had produced truly possessed the effect of healing the Soul?!
If it really had such an effect, how sought-after would such a Pill be? If it were sold at their World Aplenty Hall, what enormous profits would it bring to the World Aplenty Hall?
Merely imagining it, the female attendant’s breathing involuntarily quickened.
“It is only human nature.” Regarding Grandmaster Lan Wen’s apology, Qin Yichen waved his hand, not paying much attention to his previous attitude.
Moreover, as the Chief Appraiser of World Aplenty Hall, being able to swallow his pride and apologise to him also demonstrated that Grandmaster Lan Wen was not someone who bullied others using his position.
“Little Brother, are you planning to sell this Pill?” Grandmaster Lan Wen asked somewhat urgently, his rubbing hands revealing his inner anxiety without reservation.
As an appraiser for World Aplenty Hall, he understood very clearly the value of this Clear Mind Pill!
Or rather, one could say that the value of this Pill itself could not compare with the influence it would bring.
This was an unprecedented new type of Pill!
Moreover, it was a Pill of great significance to Alchemy Masters.
For Alchemy Masters, it absolutely possessed fatal allure. This was just like how Martial Artists must carry Qi Recovery Pills and Healing Pills with them at all times.
It was believed that in future, this Clear Mind Pill would become an indispensable Pill for Alchemy Masters! Therefore, Grandmaster Lan Wen had become somewhat panicked.
His attitude towards Qin Yichen earlier could be said to have been rather poor, if Qin Yichen were to sell the Pills to World Aplenty Hall’s competitors as a result, it would absolutely bring great pressure and impact to World Aplenty Hall.
“Hehe.” Under his nervous gaze, Qin Yichen shook his head.
*Haaa…* Grandmaster Lan Wen sighed, and suddenly seemed to have aged several years.
Throughout his life he had been cautious and careful, never making any mistakes, but this time he had misjudged.
“Little Brother, please reconsider. Our World Aplenty Hall is willing to pay a high price…”
“Grandmaster Lan Wen, you have misunderstood. My purpose in coming here this time is not to sell Pills, but rather to sell the Pill Formula!” Qin Yichen’s next sentence directly lifted Grandmaster Lan Wen’s mood from hell to heaven.
“You mean… the Pill Formula?” Grandmaster Lan Wen thought he had misheard and could not help asking again. [The Pill Formula?!]
He simply could not imagine how much profit such a Formula would bring to World Aplenty Hall!
One must know that World Aplenty Hall did not only have business in Heavenly Dragon Imperial City.
The Feng Family, being the wealthiest Force among the Six Grand Imperial Dynasties, naturally had business spread throughout all the Imperial Dynasties.
However, competition in the Pill industry was very fierce.
But if they had this Pill Formula, then their World Aplenty Hall would definitely give their competitors a huge surprise.
“Will you not accept it?”
Qin Yichen stood up.
“Accept! Accept! Of course we accept!” Grandmaster Lan Wen quickly came to his senses. At this moment, he almost wanted to worship Qin Yichen.
Originally, he had thought that getting Qin Yichen to leave the Pills behind would already be an extravagant matter. Who would have known that such a huge windfall would just drop on his head like this.
“Please wait, I shall immediately go and call the Manager over.”
After all, he was merely an appraiser. Such a major matter was beyond his authority to decide.
Having said this, he hurriedly walked out. As if not feeling assured about leaving him, the female attendant bowed to Qin Yichen and also followed him out.
Watching their departing figures, the corners of Qin Yichen’s mouth curved into a shallow arc.
Originally, he had only wanted to sell Pills, but after encountering Ouyang Haotian, he had changed his mind.
This Clear Mind Pill formula could be considered a meeting gift for the Feng Family.
Only this way could he leave a deep impression on the Feng Family members behind World Aplenty Hall.
…
“Grandmaster Lan Wen, is that Pill really so miraculous that it requires disturbing the Manager?”
After leaving, the female attendant caught up with Grandmaster Lan Wen and enquired in a low voice.
“En.” Grandmaster Lan Wen nodded and muttered to himself, “Such a young Fifth Grade Alchemy Master. Could it be that this young man has also come to participate in the Alchemy Manor Summit?”
“Grandmaster, should we send someone to investigate his background?” The female attendant took a deep breath and softly asked.
Grandmaster Lan Wen’s eyes narrowed slightly. After pondering briefly, he shook his head. “Not right now. Alchemy Masters all have rather peculiar temperaments. If our investigation draws his attention, I fear he might develop a poor impression of our World Aplenty Hall.”
His thoughts naturally went deeper.
Firstly, where exactly did this Pill Formula come from? He did not believe that a teenage youth could develop such an astounding Pill.
What he suspected was that behind this Pill Formula stood some kind of Force.
On this continent, there were many ancient Families that continued for generations. The Feng Family was one of them.
Grandmaster Lan Wen now undoubtedly also regarded Qin Yichen as a young genius from some ancient Family who had come out to gain experience.
Soon, they encountered the World Aplenty Hall manager who had just seen off Ouyang Haotian.
Grandmaster Lan Wen merely briefly mentioned the effects of the Clear Mind Pill, and this World Aplenty Hall manager immediately set aside the matters he had originally been going to handle.
Before long, the door opened, and Grandmaster Lan Wen and the World Aplenty Hall manager walked in.
“Sir, this is that young man.” Grandmaster Lan Wen made the introduction.
“It is you.” Upon seeing Qin Yichen, the World Aplenty Hall Manager’s eyes immediately lit up.
He had seen Qin Yichen conversing with Ouyang Haotian, though from the tone of both parties, he could tell that their relationship was not deep.
“I am Feng Jianzhong, serving as the Manager of this World Aplenty Hall.” The Manager introduced himself.
“Qin Yichen!” Qin Yichen also did not conceal his identity, feeling there was no particular need to hide it.
“Qin?” Feng Jianzhong was slightly taken aback, but quickly recovered. “That Young Friend Qin is willing to sell the Pill Formula to our World Aplenty Hall is truly an honour for our World Aplenty Hall!”
After exchanging pleasantries for a few sentences, they turned to the main topic.
“I wonder what price you have in mind?”
He was testing the waters. Clearly, he wanted to know Qin Yichen’s bottom line.
Qin Yichen did not speak, but held up three fingers.
“Three hundred thousand gold coins?” Feng Jianzhong’s eyes lit up, and his heartbeat immediately accelerated.
Just as he was becoming excited, Qin Yichen shook his head.
“Three million?”
Feng Jianzhong’s expression showed slight gravity.
If it were three million gold coins, there would be almost no profit, and relying solely on this one Pill Formula to earn back three million gold coins would take at least ten years or more.
“No.”
Qin Yichen shook his head, then said, “I require thirty per cent of the profits!”
He not only wanted to complete this one transaction with the Feng Family, but aimed to establish a long-term cooperative relationship.
