Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2493: Chapter 50: Pulling Off a Big Job (Part 4)

“Young Master Shouzhe, I was just entangled with miscellaneous matters, please forgive the lack of prompt reception.” He wore a smile that felt like a spring breeze, greeting Wang Shouzhe while not forgetting to nod at Yun Tiange behind him, “Zhenyuan greets Immortal Monarch Tiange.”

After a round of formal greetings, the two sat down, and the maidservants served various precious spirit melons and exotic fruits, brewing immortal tea, and eagerly entertaining Wang Shouzhe.

After taking their seats, instead of getting to the point, the two engaged in a leisurely and scattered conversation like old friends who hadn’t met for a while.

It took more than an hour before Dongfang Zhenyuan finally couldn’t hold back and steered the conversation to the topic, “Young Master Shouzhe, you are gracing our branch hall, is there something you need?”

“Chatting happily with the Hall Master, I almost forgot the main purpose.” Wang Shouzhe slapped his forehead, feigning just having remembered, and laughed, “This time I’m here to entrust you with procuring a batch of Dan medicine.”

“Dan medicine?” Dongfang Zhenyuan was surprised inside.

Instead of mentioning food supplies, he talks about Dan medicine?

But as long as he’s not forcing Dongfang Zhenyuan to choose sides, everything is negotiable.

He immediately laughed heartily, “Young Master Shouzhe’s request is something our Divine Treasure Hall cannot decline. Please tell me what type of Dan medicine you need and in what quantity?”

“The Hall Master is straightforward, I want two thousand Rank 9 [Infinite Pills], two hundred Rank 10 [Ascension Elixirs], and twenty Rank 11 [Sacred Pills].” Wang Shouzhe watched as Dongfang Zhenyuan’s mouth opened wider, continuing, “Oh yes, can our Divine Treasure Hall get a hold of Rank 12 [Dao Far Pill]? If possible, please procure two for me.”

Dongfang Zhenyuan felt somewhat irritated in his heart, his face showing displeasure as he said, “Could it be that the young master is here to tease me? Taoist Yuan Pill, such a heaven-defying treasure, is barely within the reach of a Taoist Master, each with a price as high as the sky, and there never is a market for them, our Divine Treasure Hall barely has the capability to procure them?”

While saying this, he couldn’t help but internally ridicule. Why not simply ask us to get Sacred Image or Dao Book?

“Then the Infinite Pill, Ascension Elixir, Sacred Pill should be obtainable, right?”

The preciousness of Taoist Yuan Pill was well known to Wang Shouzhe, not harboring much hope in the first place, seeing him say this didn’t bother him; he continued to ask.

“This…” Dongfang Zhenyuan steadied his mind, seriously considering, “Infinite Pill, Ascension Elixir are manageable, just that the quantity asked by you is too large. As for Sacred Pill, even if I exert utmost effort, getting several would be pushing it. The difficulty isn’t merely due to the herbs but requires a Sacred Supreme-level professional Alchemist, with a Taoist Master assisting to refine it; even Sacred Supreme and Taoist Master don’t hold many.”

“Alright, then reduce the quantity, set an order for one thousand [Infinite Pills], one hundred [Ascension Elixirs], ten [Sacred Pills].” Wang Shouzhe smiled, “Regarding the price, I won’t let the Hall Master lose, we should go by the highest auction price. As for delivery time, it need not be hastily worried, I am in no rush, let’s aim to complete them within a century.”

Wang Shouzhe didn’t request the Eighth Grade [Metamorphosis Pill], considering that such a thing was something Family Alchemist Wang Shouye could barely refine with the help of an Immortal Monarch, it needed to be reserved for him to brush up on proficiency.

Any other Dan medicine, it wouldn’t be a loss regardless of how much was purchased.

“This… the total price would at least exceed seven pieces of Chaos Spirit Stone.” Dongfang Zhenyuan calculated in his heart, his eyes brightened, “Are you truly serious about placing this order?”

Such a large-scale order, even for him was rarely encountered, if successfully placed, his merit points and rewards won’t be few.

“Could it be, Hall Master truly thinks I’m full for nothing?” Wang Shouzhe lightly chuckled and shook his head.

“Alright, alright! Mainly, gathering Sacred Pill is slow; the first two can be gathered within thirty years, whereas Sacred Pill would be targeted to assemble within sixty years.” Dongfang Zhenyuan’s mood brightened.

After all, the price given by Wang Shouzhe had a considerable profit margin.

With a transaction settled, Dongfang Zhenyuan’s initial caution diminished notably, speech increasingly soothing like a spring breeze.

“By the way, I have another treasure to entrust your branch hall to appraise the price.” Wang Shouzhe mentioned as if in passing.

“Haha, the young master has certainly approached the right person.” Dongfang Zhenyuan confidently said, “No matter the treasure, I can quickly appraise the price, this is indeed my livelihood.”

Wang Shouzhe slightly nodded as if reassured, he brought out a small green bottle, casually saying, “I have a ’family heirloom sacred artifact’ ready to sell, trouble the Hall Master to appraise the price.”

Family heirloom sacred artifact?

Dongfang Zhenyuan stood up with a jolt, suddenly became stupefied.

At that moment, his mind seemed as if a string snapped with a ’cachang’, instantly blank.

At the same time, the Artifact Spirit Green Xiaoyi emerged from the surface of the bottle.

She wore a mournful face, her big eyes brimming with tears, appearing as pitiful as can be.

Trembling and apprehensive for so long, has this day finally arrived?

The master really did get tired of her and decided to sell her?

The more she thought, the more sorrowful and upset she became, finally couldn’t hold back and cried out, “Young Master, wuwuwu~ I don’t want to be sold! I am willing to do anything for you!”
