"Young Master, if we don’t sell the Alchemy Pavilion’s pills, what are we going to sell?"
Unable to hold back, I asked.
"What I plan to sell are the third-grade True Qi Pills, Breaking Profound Pills, and Heart Condensing Pills,"
Qin Chen casually listed a few pills.
Xu Xiong and the others were shocked by Qin Chen’s words, their eyes wide open in disbelief.
Third-grade True Qi Pill, Breaking Profound Pill, Heart Condensing Pill?
Is this for real?
Xu Xiong and the others were nearly going crazy.
To put it into perspective, in Wu City, a peak second-grade alchemist is already considered top-tier. A third-grade alchemist is nonexistent, except for the Tianxing Commerce Association. Neither the Song family, the Zhu family, nor the Wu Cultivation Manor has one. Yet, Qin Chen claims he will sell third-grade pills, completely beyond their imagination.
Does Young Master really have these pills?
Seeing Xu Xiong and the others doubtful, Qin Chen did not explain. He casually took out a True Qi Pill, and a rich medicinal fragrance immediately spread.
It really is a third-grade pill.
Gasps of cold air rose and fell, Xu Xiong and the others trembled, their expressions dazed.
Even though they had mentally prepared themselves, the moment Qin Chen pulled out the pills, they were still stunned.
Initially, they thought they understood Qin Chen to a certain degree, but now they realized that what they had seen was merely the surface.
"Young Master, are you sure these pills can really be sold directly?"
Xu Xiong swallowed hard and asked.
The pills Qin Chen mentioned were simply too astonishing. In a place like Wu City, which lacks alchemists, these third-grade pills would be enough to fetch a high price at the Tianxing Commerce Association's auction.
To sell them outright now was incredibly bold.
"Of course. Do you have any questions?"
Qin Chen understood that if he wanted to extract real treasures from the warriors of Wu City, money alone would not suffice. Only by exchanging it for something better could he have a chance.
And he didn’t have much time, so he had to use such extreme methods.
"There is indeed a problem,"
Calming down, Xu Xiong took a moment to gather his thoughts and spoke in a serious tone.
"You say." Qin Chen immediately looked over.
"Although we've killed Liu Cheng and taken over the Alchemy Pavilion, if the Alchemy Pavilion is really related to the Zhu family, they will definitely come looking for trouble, and they will certainly want to reclaim the Alchemy Pavilion," Xu Xiong said solemnly.
"Reclaim the Alchemy Pavilion?" Qin Chen was taken aback. "We've already killed Liu Cheng, what right does the Zhu family have to take it back? Can any of the four major forces in Wu City just reclaim any shop they want?"
Qin Chen couldn’t help but feel puzzled.
Previously, when the Zhou family and the Xu family were in conflict, he was very clear that the Zhou family's goal was to seize a few shops from the Xu family. But according to what Xu Xiong was saying now, even if they killed Liu Cheng, the shops would still return to the four major forces. Then why did the Zhou family go to such lengths to deal with the Xu family?
It's not that the four major forces can reclaim the shops, but that when one force seizes another's shop or physical industry, they must pay a transfer fee to Wu City in order to gain formal ownership rights. This transfer fee is usually 20% of the value of the physical industry. Normally, Wu City wouldn’t interfere with the transfer of shops between the various forces, but the Alchemy Pavilion is different. Wu City is already controlled by the Zhu family and the other three major forces. If the Zhu family intervenes, then our ownership of the Alchemy Pavilion will definitely be problematic."
"Twenty percent transfer fee? The four major forces really do have a good plan."
Hearing this, Qin Chen couldn’t help but sneer. No wonder Wu City was in such chaos, with various forces fighting each other and no one managing the situation.
It turns out there was this hidden aspect.
