324 Buying the Pills in Disguise
“Are you serious?” The middle-aged man’s voice trembled. This was a business worth a million taels of silver, and just his commission alone could reach ten thousand taels of silver.
Qin Huai shook his head.
“You bastard…” The middle-aged man’s face instantly darkened. What kind of place did this guy think his Three Cauldron Elixir Dispensary was? How dare he make fun of him here?
“I would like to invite the pill refiners of your pavilion to refine another hundred pills,” Qin Huai clarified.
“Huh… What… There will definitely be some discounts!” The middle-aged man’s expression instantly turned from dark to bright. “Are you sure you’re buying that much? Two hundred red qi tiger wolf pills?” The middle-aged man was still in disbelief. This was a business worth two million.
Qin Huai nodded. “How much discount can you give?”
“Well… I can’t make the decision.” The middle-aged man quickly stood up. “Please wait for me. I’ll go and invite the pavilion master over!” He dashed out of the door and hurried upstairs, calling out, “Men! Bring the best tea for our distinguished guest!”
This caused many of the pavilion’s servants and regular customers to look at Qin Huai’s room in surprise. “Who is that person? How can he make Elder Qian so flustered…”
“It’s most likely some big shot. I’ve been in the pill pavilion for so many years, but I’ve never seen Elder Qian lose his composure like this.”
Qin Huai only sat there for a moment before an old man walked in quickly. The latter’s expression was solemn, but he still squeezed out a cold smile. It was easy to tell that he was an old man who usually did not smile.
“Sir, I am the Three Cauldron Elixir Dispensary’s master, Fan Ziyu.”
“My surname is Long,” Qin Huai said casually. He had risen to prominence by cultivating the white dragon, so he used ‘Long’ as his surname.
“Mr. Long, a hundred red qi tiger wolf pills have been prepared for you and placed in the backyard. The remaining hundred pills, due to the problem of the pill pavilion’s manpower, might take some time before I can hand them over to you.” The old man laughed.
“How long will it take?” Qin Huai asked.
“Two months?”
“It’s too late.” Qin Huai did not hesitate. It was hard to say where he would be in two months.
“Fifty days! Our pill pavilion usually has many other pills to refine. However, our Three Cauldron Elixir Dispensary can give you a discount of one thousand taels per pill!”
“One month. If you can’t do it, I’ll go ask someone else.” Qin Huai stood up.
“Forty days! The other pill houses definitely don’t have any in stock… Forty days is the limit!” Fan Ziyu was unwilling to let go of this big order worth a million taels of silver. Who wouldn’t be envious of such a transaction?
“Alright, forty days then.” Qin Huai said nothing more. He immediately took out a thick stack of ten thousand silver notes from his bosom and slapped it in front of the old man. “This is one million taels. I don’t think I need to pay the deposit for the remaining one hundred pills, right?”
“There’s no need. I absolutely believe in your financial resources!” Fan Ziyu was very determined.
This person was generous and didn’t seem like an ordinary person. Could he be a disciple of a large sect from Qingzhou City? Would he use the four-directional tiger-wolf technique as one of the five full patterns cultivation techniques?
Qin Huai shook his head, threw the box away, and took out the pills one by one. A hundred pills were easily stuffed into his tightly packed pockets.
“After forty days, I’ll come back to the pill pavilion to get the rest!” Qin Huai cupped his fists at Fan Ziyu.
Fan Ziyu took out a golden token from his chest. “This is the golden core token of our Three Cauldron Elixir Dispensary. If you enter any of our branches in Qingzhou, you will be able to enjoy the treatment of a core disciple. You can order the people of the pill pavilion to do things for you and casually flip through the pill pavilion’s pill code…”
Qin Huai kept the golden token in his bosom. It was actually pure gold. “Thank you, Pavilion Master Fan!” He cupped his fists and quickly disappeared into the bustling city.
“Pavilion Master, you handed over the pill pavilion’s golden core token so easily. Isn’t this a little abrupt?” The shopkeeper behind him was puzzled. Even if this was a big business deal, a big customer, at most, he would be given a purple pill token and enjoy the treatment of ordinary alchemy pavilion disciples.
“What do you know?” Fan Ziyu’s expression was cold. “That person’s skin is fair and smooth. He’s obviously a young man. And the aura that’s faintly discernible on his body… It’s obvious he’s advanced very deeply in the bone pattern realm. Since he needs such a huge amount of pills, he’s definitely cultivating the four-directional tiger-wolf technique for the sake of breaking through to the fifth full pattern, a genius who wanted to cultivate the king’s force.
“Moreover, his skin is glowing, so clearly, his physical body is extremely powerful… Now that he has pushed the four-directional tiger-wolf technique to its peak, I won’t be surprised if there’ll be another terrifying figure with an unparalleled physical body in Qingzhou. That’s why we should invest in such a person as early as now. We can’t go wrong with this.”
Fan Ziyu’s words jolted the manager of the pill pavilion from his dream. “Pavilion Master’s observation is really meticulous!”
…
At the dock warehouse, Mou Jinfu stood on the roof of the warehouse and looked at his bustling port with his crutch.
The muscular men wore linen clothes and carried heavy objects on their shoulders. They looked like a long gray dragon that stretched out for two miles.
On the Yellow River in Qingzhou, hundreds of boats competed to sail. There were boxes of various sizes that contained specialties from all over Qingzhou, with hundreds of different kinds of things, such as silk, rice, nuts, and longans.
“What a beautiful scenery.” Mou Jinfu sighed.
“Every day, the goods that are loaded and unloaded from our Blood Poison Gang’s dock are worth hundreds of thousands of gold,” the dog-headed advisor behind him said.
