"According to the people there, the pills they've been making are all perfect-grade pills, and they even have special properties!" The general manager of Chaoyuan Pharmaceutical in Tianshan City looked towards Jiang Yuan's location.
"I just had a staff member use their number to collect a pill. General Manager, please take a look!" The man in the suit presented a fragrant Rejuvenation Pill.
The general manager took the pill, smelled it first, examined it carefully, and then swallowed it. His expression became increasingly strange as the pill went down his throat.
"General Manager, is there a problem?" The man in the suit looked nervously at the young general manager.
"The pills are impeccable! In fact..." The general manager frowned, pondered for a while, and said, "I can even taste my cousin's flavor in them!"
"General Manager, you can't say things like that!" the man in the suit said, trembling with fear.
"Don't overthink it. I didn't disrespect my cousin. I just think this pill tastes a lot like the pills my cousin makes, but I can't quite put my finger on why!" The general manager also stood up. It was clear that he was very wary of the man in the suit's speculation. If this got out, he was afraid his cousin would chop him up and feed him to the dogs when he got home.
"Should we try to recruit them to our Chaoyuan Pharmaceutical?" the man in the suit suggested.
"Okay, go and sound him out! Oh, and also film a video of him making medicine, I'll send it to my cousin later!" After saying that, the general manager leaned back in his chair and enjoyed his boss moment.
On the display stand of Wan Yao Ge
"Master, we're running out of medicinal herbs!" Gu Anlei had completely immersed herself in the role of Dan Tong.
"It's alright, let's finish one more batch and then we'll call it a day!" Jiang Yuan had already done more than enough for the Wan Yao Ge. He used the same materials to refine at least four times the number of perfect-grade pills. After all, he made zero mistakes, which would be legendary in the hands of any alchemist.
"Master, I've come to collect the pills. Are there any more?" The man in the suit asked with reverence in his eyes, his expression and demeanor befitting a die-hard fan.
"Of course there is! My master is opening his alchemy business today, so there has to be plenty!"
Gu Anlei took the number plate from the other person's hand to register, and then gave him a Rejuvenation Pill.
"Beautiful lady, this master is so skilled in alchemy, may I ask what his name is?" the man in the suit asked cautiously, his recording stone having already recorded for a while.
"Oh, his name? You can just call him Master Jiang!" Gu Anlei said.
"Master Jiang, have you ever considered developing your business with our Chaoyuan Chamber of Commerce? Our Tianshan City branch is currently short-staffed. If Master Jiang were to come..."
"You little thief, your Chaoyuan Chamber of Commerce is really bold, trying to undermine my Wanyao Pavilion right under my nose!" Luo Yingqiu stopped refining pills and walked over in a rage.
"Ahem, um, I really need to pee!" The man in the suit ran away as fast as he could, afraid of being caught and beaten up by the people from Wan Yao Ge.
Being brutally beaten is not uncommon; on the contrary, it's quite common. Although the Chaoyuan Chamber of Commerce is powerful, when they go to other safe zones to "explore" new territory, they will still be targeted by local forces, both overtly and covertly. As a pioneering team, they were already mentally prepared to be attacked.
"Boss lady, our transaction should be complete by now!" Jiang Yuan extinguished the fire in the furnace and stopped refining pills.
"Are you sure you don't want to stay and develop your career at Wan Yao Ge? I think with your talent, you should pursue the path of an alchemist. Otherwise, it would be a waste of your genius!" Luo Yingqiu extended an olive branch to Jiang Yuan.
Jiang Yuan shook his head and declined, "Thank you for your kindness, madam, but my ambitions lie elsewhere!"
His current alchemy skills are simply relying on his past achievements; after the loss of the Divine Pharmacist's legacy, he no longer has the ability to improve his alchemy skills.
"Don't you want to reconsider?" Luo Yingqiu asked again.
"No!" Jiang Yuan shook his head firmly.
"Oh, what a pity!"
Luo Yingqiu sighed, but still took out the two cores and said, "I was originally planning to give you a ninth-tier core, but considering how much you helped me today, if I were to be so stingy, I, the proprietress of the Ten Thousand Medicines Pavilion, would have nowhere to hide my face!"
"two!"
Jiang Yuan immediately recognized the levels of the two crystal cores: one was ninth-grade, and the other was mid-grade spirit-level.
"You want me to have them all?" Jiang Yuan was quite surprised.
"Come visit me next time, I'll treat you to a drink!" Luo Yingqiu tossed the key to her.
"Thank you, sis!"
Jiang Yuan also changed his title. It seems that Luo Yingqiu had other means to get the store manager position besides her own advantages. At least, she has excellent judgment.
"Next time you come for drinks, don't bring that young lady. Don't you feel bad about always ordering others around?" Luo Yingqiu said, casting a flirtatious glance at him.
Jiang Yuan's attention was not on Luo Yingqiu's words, but on the ninth-tier core in his hand. His insight count had reached three, one step closer to five hundred.
"Sis, we have something to do, so we'll be leaving now!"
Jiang Yuan had been here for four hours, and the demonic intent in his heart was becoming increasingly difficult to suppress. He was eager to cultivate the Thunder Control Technique.
