"I didn't expect it to be you."
Taking a deep breath and suppressing the strange emotions in her heart, Lie Yuer said with a smile.
Gu Yuan touched his nose and said a little embarrassedly: "I have to apologize first. It's mainly because I offended His Highness, whom I have never met, so I had no choice but to do this."
"It's okay, let's just think of it as us getting to know each other again." Lie Yuer said with a smile.
"Yeah, okay!"
Gu Yuan nodded, feeling a little better, after all, he had deceived her.
"These two should be your friends, right?"
Lie Yuer sat down opposite Gu Yuan, looking a little lazy.
"Um!"
Looking at the tender and white calf as white as snow lotus root exposed outside, Gu Yuan seemed to have a nameless fire burning in his heart.
He quickly circulated his spiritual energy to suppress it, calmed himself, and replied, "I came here mainly for two reasons. The first is to ask you about the last time I asked about the elixir. How is it going? Is everything okay?"
When the topic of the pills came up, Lie Yu'er sat up straight, her face showing joy. "The situation is even better than I expected. Last time, we auctioned the Fire Qi Pill and Wind Spirit Pill you gave us. After the extensive publicity in the early stages, we attracted even more people than usual. As a result, the competition for the pills is very fierce, and our profits are naturally higher."
"Oh? That's good!"
Gu Yuan didn't ask anything else. After all, those pills had nothing to do with him anymore. He just wanted to make sure there was a market for them.
"Why? What is it that Master Gu wants to cooperate with our auction house about?"
Lie Yuer looked at Gu Yuan and asked.
Gu Yuan smiled and thought to himself that Lie Yuer was really smart.
"Yes, that's the second thing I want to say. Before that, let me introduce someone to you."
Turning his gaze to Mu San, Gu Yuan said, "This is Mu San. He is currently cooperating with me."
"Hello, Miss Yu'er."
Mu San looked at Lie Yuer and felt quite excited. This was the dream lover of many people!
"Hello!"
He nodded slightly in response.
Seeing that Lie Yuer hadn't even stood up, Mu San smiled bitterly in his heart. It seemed that his status was still not enough.
"This time I want you to send people to take back some of the Xiao family's shops, which are about ten in total." Gu Yuan said after thinking for a while.
Lie Yu'er was slightly stunned, "What do you mean?"
"The Xiao family's shop now belongs to me. It accounts for about 30% of their assets. I don't have that many people, so I want you to help me."
Lie Yu'er stood up suddenly, her face full of shock. "How is this possible? How did the Xiao family's assets end up in your hands? And 30% of them at that?"
Lie Yuer even wondered if Gu Yuan was talking nonsense.
"Why would I lie to you?"
Gu Yuan asked helplessly, "The main thing is that I want you to send some people over to take over those medicine shops and herbal medicine shops, and maintain their daily operations."
"You really didn't lie to me?"
"Really not!"
Gu Yuan answered again, why don’t you believe him?
"Oh my god, what kind of monster are you? You even managed to get hold of the Xiao family's assets! And 30% of them! If someone else told me that, I would have believed they were crazy!"
Lie Yuer patted her chest and said in shock.
"Hehe, this is also a coincidence. What do you think? Do you want to consider it?"
"I can consider it. But I still want to know how you managed to make the Xiao family willingly hand over 30% of the industry to you." Lie Yuer stared at Gu Yuan and said.
"Ahem, let's not talk about this, okay?"
Gu Yuan would never tell anyone about how he forced others to do so.
"You have a lot of people in your auction house, and many of them have management capabilities. You don't have to take care of it yourself. I just need your manpower to operate these industries. How about it?" Gu Yuan said seriously.
Lie Yu'er stopped asking questions, frowned, and said, "We can do everything you said, but why should I help you?"
As a businessman, Lie Yuer will not do anything that is not profitable.
Gu Yuan was not surprised at all that Lie Yu'er would say such a thing. He smiled and said, "You know those shops. I will definitely sell the pills I have. Then we can support each other."
"That's all?"
Lie Yuer frowned slightly. This would bring them no real benefit at all, but instead they would have to take the trouble to look after these shops.
"Of course not only that. In the future, I will provide you with the same elixirs as those in these medicine shops. You will have whatever is in the shops, and 30% of the profits will belong to you." Gu Yuan continued.
This time, Lie Yuer truly felt Gu Yuan's sincerity. Not to mention the 30% profit, the simultaneous provision of elixirs alone was enough to tempt her.
Shi Xun once told her that if nothing unexpected happened, Yuan Hao could at least become a sixth-grade alchemist, and Gu Yuan was Yuan Hao, and he was even nearly ten years younger than originally thought!
Ten years! That’s enough time for a lot to happen.
Thinking that she was making friends with a future sixth-grade alchemist, Lie Yuer felt a little excited.
But rationality prevailed, and she calmly asked, "But what I want to know is, can you come up with any other pills?"
Gu Yuan smiled in his heart, knowing that Lie Yuer was moved.
"Hey, this is the Soul-Breaking Pill, a third-grade pill. You know its effects very well. This is just a pill I made casually. There will be more high-grade and other types of pills in the future."
She took the jade bottle and poured the round pill into her palm. Her years of experience gave her a lot of understanding about pills.
