Chapter 675 - 651: Young Master Huang of Dianzhou
"Alright, today I’ll see what kind of weight your Undying Pavilion really carries."
The blonde-haired young man waved his hand, took out a wooden box from his storage treasure, and handed it to Chen Ruolong. "Here are the ingredients for refining a Qi Passage Pill, just enough for one."
Chen Ruolong’s eyes brightened and he started to reassess the blonde-haired young man, secretly admiring that this guy indeed has some strength.
After all, not everyone has a storage treasure.
Even someone like Chen Ruolong from the Chen Family would find it hard to own a storage treasure.
"What’s your name, buddy?"
"Surname Huang."
"Oh, Young Master Huang!"
Chen Ruolong piled on the smiles and started to get familiar.
After some pleasantries, Young Master Huang paid the deposit, and Chen Ruolong took the wooden box inside the consultation room at the clinic.
"Hey boss, can you really refine a Qi Passage Pill in three hours?"
Sun Zhe sat leisurely on the plastic chair, having overheard the conversation outside between Chen Ruolong and Young Master Huang, he said, "This Young Master Huang has potential, he’s a big client, we’ve got to seize the opportunity."
"Come on, let me take a look at the ingredients first."
Chen Ruolong placed the wooden box on the tea table and opened it, saying, "He said these ingredients are only enough for one Qi Passage Pill."
Sun Zhe glanced at the ingredients and suddenly laughed, "Under normal circumstances, these ingredients indeed yield only one pill. But here, we can get at least three."
"Really?" Chen Ruolong’s eyes lit up, "Doesn’t that mean we get two extras?"
Sun Zhe quickly signaled him to keep quiet, chuckling mischievously, "Keep it low-key."
Chen Ruolong also showed a crafty grin, "Alright then, boss, you get busy, I’ll go entertain the sucker outside."
"What sucker? Are you dumb? It’s called God!"
"Right, right, God!"
"..."
After Chen Ruolong went out to deal with God, Sun Zhe calmly stood up and took out his sand furnace from the White Jade Ring, placing it on the tea table.
The voice of Little Dragon Girl suddenly sounded in his mind, "Using this broken sand furnace to refine elixirs is too troublesome, use that cauldron instead."
"What cauldron?"
Little Dragon Girl said, "Back in Northern Myanmar, I secretly took away the ’Ten Thousand Mothers Cauldron’ that Huang Tianjing used to refine the Human Emperor Pill."
Sun Zhe was surprised, "Wow, you got the Ten Thousand Mothers Cauldron? Why didn’t you say so earlier?"
"You didn’t ask."
Sun Zhe replied, "But I’ve never used a cauldron before, I don’t know if it’ll work."
Little Dragon Girl said, "It’s very simple, you can use regular charcoal. Or even easier for you, just use your Pure Yang Sacred Flame for refining."
"But my cultivation is suppressed by the Spiritual Pressure Treasure Ring, I can’t use the Pure Yang Sacred Flame."
"Then use regular charcoal."
"..."
...
Time ticked by.
More than two hours later.
Young Master Huang received the Qi Passage Pill from Chen Ruolong, examined it carefully, and suddenly froze.
"Oh my gosh! The quality is... top-notch, even worth three million per pill!"
Young Master Huang’s face flushed with excitement, tightly gripping Chen Ruolong’s arm. "Brother, can I meet your Pavilion Master?"
Chen Ruolong laughed, "Of course, but the Pavilion Master is busy right now, let’s not disturb him. Besides, you’ve already met our Pavilion Master."
Young Master Huang looked bewildered, "When did I meet him?"
Chen Ruolong smiled faintly, "Actually, our Pavilion Master is the new Martial Hero in the Body Refining District."
When he spoke these words, the whole place buzzed with excitement.
Young Master Huang’s eyes widened, "Are you saying ’Dead Ghost’ is the Pavilion Master of the Undying Pavilion?"
"Exactly!" Chen Ruolong said proudly, his gaze sweeping over the crowd at the door, he said in a loud voice, "Ladies and gentlemen, we’re closing the Undying Pavilion for today. Tomorrow we open at nine in the morning, you’re welcome to come support us."
"But fair warning, our Pavilion Master also has to participate in the martial arts arena, so the number of orders taken each day is very limited. First come, first serve!"
"..."
After everyone dispersed, Chen Ruolong happily returned to the consultation room, gleefully winking at Sun Zhe, "How’s that, boss? My hunger marketing worked, right?"
Sun Zhe toyed with the two extra Qi Passage Pills and tossed one to Chen Ruolong, "Here’s your pay for today."
Chen Ruolong was overjoyed, "Thanks, boss! Love ya, mwah!"
"Get lost!"
Sun Zhe checked his phone for the time and saw it was already past five in the afternoon, so he planned to go home to rest.
"Let’s go, grab something to eat and head home."
"Okay, boss. Shall we have hot pot again tonight?"
"..."
The next day.
Sun Zhe got up early and took Chen Ruolong to the underground martial arts arena to open for business.
As soon as they arrived at the clinic’s entrance, they saw dozens of people lined up, with none other than yesterday’s Young Master Huang at the forefront.
Young Master Huang was generous, requesting Sun Zhe to refine twenty Qi Passage Pills at once!
"Wow, Young Master Huang really does have skill!"
Chen Ruolong stared at the large box of ingredients, his eyes widened.
With Sun Zhe’s skills, he could refine three pills from one set of ingredients and keep two for himself.
Considering that, apart from earning twenty million in refining fees, they could also make a windfall of forty extra Qi Passage Pills!
And in the trading district, a Qi Passage Pill usually sells for three and a half million a piece!
Young Master Huang looked at Sun Zhe with admiration and said with a smile, "Honestly, the quality of the Qi Passage Pills refined by the ’Dead Ghost’ Pavilion Master is unparalleled."
"I’ve sought out many refining companies before, but not only do they charge high fees, the quality is mediocre at best. I never imagined yesterday’s curiosity would lead me to such a jackpot."
"Pavilion Master, how about raising the refining fee for each Qi Passage Pill to one and a half million?"
Sun Zhe chuckled, "Young Master Huang, you are generous. It will be ready by six o’clock this evening, come and get it then!"
"Hahaha, it’s a pleasure to deal with people like you, Pavilion Master."
"By the way, Pavilion Master, here’s my business card. My Huang Family has several herbal mountains in Dianzhou, if needed, don’t hesitate to contact me. I’ll sell at cost price to you!"
"Sounds good."
"..."
Soon after.
After Young Master Huang left, Sun Zhe pulled down the shutters, announcing that they were fully booked today and wouldn’t take more orders.
The other customers in line were helpless and had to leave sulkily.
Ultimately, Sun Zhe wasn’t selling baked goods; orders couldn’t be taken one after another.
In the consultation room.
Chen Ruolong looked at the big box of ingredients and chuckled, "Boss, I’ll tell you, Young Master Huang isn’t simple. If I’m not mistaken, he should be Huang Xiaoming, the eldest young master of the herbal family in Dianzhou."
Sun Zhe raised an eyebrow, "What’s the deal with the Huang Family?"
Chen Ruolong laughed, "This family doesn’t have much else but loads of herbs, built its fortune on selling herbs, so we must seize this huge resource."
Sun Zhe nodded in agreement, "Alright, you go outside, I need to start refining elixirs."
"..."
...
Until dusk, Sun Zhe sluggishly left the underground martial arts arena, and was driven back to Jingtian Forest Garden by Chen Ruolong.
Refining elixirs for a day had earned him money and elixirs, but left him utterly exhausted.
"Damn, this is more tiring than a draft animal on a production team."
Little Dragon Girl said, "Actually, constant elixir refining, where you maintain intense focus, can train your divine sense, strengthening it over time."
Sun Zhe, knowing this, replied, "That’s why I’m pushing myself."
"On top of it, not only did I earn money, but I gained fame, connections, and trained my divine sense."
Amid the conversation, Sun Zhe walked into the living room and flopped onto the sofa.
Wearing an apron, Xia Shiqing emerged from the kitchen, noticing his weary demeanor, she asked, "Why are you so exhausted?"
Sun Zhe grimaced, "I’ve been working all day, can I get a reward?"
Xia Shiqing’s expression darkened, "I told you, I’m on my period."
Feeling dejected, Sun Zhe’s gaze drifted to her exposed toes in slippers.
Her glistening toes, painted bright red beneath semi-transparent stockings, appeared enticing like delicate buds.
Xia Shiqing noticed his gaze, she teased him, "Little pervert, what are you thinking?"
Sun Zhe suddenly sat up, looking at her suggestively, "Your body isn’t limited to just one usable part."
"..."
