Speaking of spirit stones, Hua Rong also became serious. The person in front of him was no longer the weak little girl who could lose her life at any moment when they first met. Now, Ye Xiruo could be said to be known to everyone on the entire continent. Even though her strength had not yet reached its peak, her status and position had reached a level that even the Taiyan God Emperor could not easily ignore. Moreover, compared with the Jingli Palace Master, she was completely superior to her master. She could wipe out an entire family without saying a word. She was too ruthless. Yet, this ruthless and violent dragon would always pretend to be a weak and innocent little girl, which made his teeth ache.
Hua Rong was quick; in less than half a day, she returned with an excited expression: "If these two items can be mass-produced, they will definitely become a hit across the entire continent."
Are you sure?
"I'm certain that we can offer different grades of pills like these, from low-grade to top-grade. In the early stages, we can hold a few auctions to build our reputation first."
"You've considered things very thoroughly, so I'm planning to cooperate with you to turn these two pill formulas into countless spirit stones. What do you think?"
"Really? This is definitely a huge business opportunity. Don't worry, I will definitely not let you down, and I will also let my father see if I am as spoiled as he imagines."
"I guess so." Ye Xiruo smiled lightly: "As for the profit distribution, I will take 30%, and the rest will be yours. I will only be responsible for providing the pill formula. You will be in charge of refining the pills, promotion, and sales."
"Isn't 30% too little for you? We're good brothers, and even close brothers keep clear accounts. I can't take such a big advantage from you." Even if he only takes 40% of the profits, he can still explain it to his father. Not everyone can get involved with a divine master. Consider this a long-term investment.
"That's enough. The medicinal herbs, the advertising, and the alchemists all require a large investment. Thirty percent is sufficient." Although spirit stones are valuable, Ye Xiruo was unwilling to damage their friendship. After all, cooperation is for mutual benefit and win-win results. There's no reason for her to take all the advantages. However, according to her calculations, this business will definitely be a hit. With her alchemy formula and the Hua family's influence on the continent, there's no reason why she shouldn't make a fortune.
"Okay, I'll go back and draft the agreement. It's settled then."
Hua Rong was very excited. He was more interested in doing business than cultivating, but his father clearly didn't think so. Without formidable martial prowess, what was the use of earning so many spirit stones? It was all going to someone else's money anyway. Although money could persuade some powerful individuals to serve you, what belongs to others will always remain theirs. Only by becoming strong yourself can you deter all those who want to take you over.
Waking from her dream of earning a fortune in spirit stones, Hua Rong began to carefully sense Ye Xiruo's aura. What she found was astonishing; her eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. In just a few days, Xiao Yezi had reached the Golden Core stage, and even the mid-stage of it! Hua Rong silently compared this to her own cultivation level and instantly felt as if she had wasted the past ten years or so.
"Little Yezi, you didn't eat some rare and precious herbs or elixirs, did you?!" The only explanation is that you're a celestial being descended to earth.
"It's not that exaggerated. Do you think medicine is so easy to take? One wrong move and not only will your foundation be unstable, but you'll also find it difficult to make any progress in the future. Do you think I'm stupid?"
"Fine! You're a genius, and we're all idiots." Hua Rong ran to the side and sought comfort from Qing Zhiyi.
Qingzhiyi waved the ornate sapphire-blue fan in her hand and glanced at Huarong indifferently: "Next time you see Xiaoyezi, you might have to call her senior."
The thought that Hua Rong might actually be in this situation made her feel even worse. Why is life so cruel?
"Besides the pills, there's the restaurant business. With the Heavenly Ranking competition imminent, if we seize the opportunity, it's not impossible to make a fortune."
"Little Leaf is right. High-grade spirit wine is something you can only come across by chance."
"While you were in Medicine King Valley, we had already inspected the shops and selected three. We're just waiting for you to come back and finalize the locations. As for the decoration and advertising, we'll get it sorted out soon."
"I'm going out to issue an order: the restaurant is hiring waiters, with excellent pay. There's no other way, we're short-handed!" Ye Xiruo was also quite distressed, suddenly thinking of Liu Tiesheng and Aunt Wang. After Qinglian Tian's birth, she had been taken away by her master and didn't know what the situation was like in Liu Family Village now.
"Little Yezi, what's wrong with you? You should limit the conditions to martial artists. If you let noble alchemists serve tea and water, do you believe that all the alchemists in the world won't gang up on you?"
"What's wrong with alchemists? Aren't alchemists human? Don't put alchemists on a pedestal all the time. Alchemists are born to be fawned over, which has fostered a disrespectful and arrogant personality. They can easily win over someone with just a few words. That's what really disgraces alchemists."
"That seems to make a lot of sense. I wonder who was it that was so furious about alchemists just a few days ago? And now they're criticizing them again?"
"I'm giving them a chance to earn spirit stones and rediscover themselves and the world. Wait a moment, I'll go and issue the mission right away."
Half an hour later, Ye Xiruo returned: "All done. When shall we go check out the shop?"
"We can set off now. How many spirit stones will we lose if we leave a day later?"
"Mingxi, go and inform Master Zhang." The specialty of this restaurant is Master Zhang's medicinal cuisine. In the early stages, Master Zhang will definitely be the mainstay of the restaurant, so we need to listen to Master Zhang's advice on the location of the shop.
The four of them disguised themselves and quickly left the Pill King Palace, arriving at the more bustling Pill King City.
Considering Ye Xiruo and Master Zhang, the restaurant was still chosen to be located in Danwang City. Danwang City is one of the most famous cities in the Taiyan Continent, with all kinds of restaurants, shops, treasure pavilions, brain shops, and of course, all kinds of delicious food.
With Zhang Quan, a master with discerning eyes, around, he could always pick out the most delicious snacks from all kinds of food. Ye Xiruo's mouth never stopped, and Hua Rong was also enjoying herself immensely.
Fortunately, they hadn't forgotten their original purpose for coming out today. After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, they started to inspect the shops.
The three shops are located in the East, West, and Central districts, respectively. The Central district is the core area of Danwang Palace, surrounded by numerous restaurants and eateries, making the competition seem fierce. However, the Central district also boasts high foot traffic, making it a place where one can quickly build a reputation. Of course, the rent there is also astronomical.
