“I have a business proposal for the Golden Pavilion. Please bring the person in charge to meet me,” Jiang Xiaobai said calmly.
The young server, who had seen quite a bit of the world, knew that the sort of person standing before him was either truly enigmatic and actually had business to discuss.
Or, he was simply putting on airs.
Regardless of which, it was not for a server like him to judge.
Not long after, a middle-aged man appeared before Jiang Xiaobai.
“This customer, I am the person in charge of the Golden Pavilion,” he said.
“No, you’re not,” said a cold and husky voice from beneath the black mask.
Not waiting for the middle-aged man to respond, Jiang Xiaobai waved his hand and tossed two porcelain bottles to the man.
The man was taken aback by Jiang Xiaobai’s statement; he was indeed not the real person in charge, but Jiang’s attitude was somewhat arrogant.
After all, this is the Golden Pavilion!
“If the items in these are not valuable, it’s impossible for us to collaborate,” he said with a warning huff, opening one of the bottles to reveal twenty-five Foundation Establishment Pills.
All of them were top-quality spiritual pills, a quality which made these Foundation Establishment Pills extremely precious.
The man’s expression altered instantly, driven by curiosity, he opened the other bottle.
Immediately, a strange medicinal fragrance entered his nostrils, and he felt the heat poison within his body slightly suppressed.
Just a slight suppression was enough to let him tell.
“This… this is impossible!” he exclaimed, his eyes burning with shock when he looked at Jiang Xiaobai.
“The effect is as you experienced,” Jiang Xiaobai said indifferently.
Sometimes, in conversation, it is not necessary to be overly explicit. A few words are enough to create mystery..
Just as expected, the man’s expression changed drastically.
He quickly glanced around, then said, “Sir, may we speak privately, please.”
After gesturing, Jiang Xiaobai followed him into a very quiet secret room.
“Sir, you are indeed extraordinary. I was rude before!”
The middle-aged man apologized to Jiang Xiaobai, “I am Lu Lian, may I ask how to address you?”
“Ironmask.”
“Please wait for a moment. For this matter, I am not qualified enough. I need to bring my boss.” said Lu Lian. He then quickly exited the secret room, and not long after, a chubby dwarf entered.
This was the real person in charge of the Golden Pavilion, Qian Dabao! He was rarely known by others. Only powerful existences like Dragon Valley Ao City were eligible to know this.
Before coming over, Lu Lian explained everything to Qian Dabao. That’s why Qian Dabao came personally.
Ordinary young masters were not worth his time.
This time was different.
According to Lu Lian, just by smelling the cleansing pill, he could feel the heat poison in his body suppressed.
Qian Dabao thought that a person who could refine a spiritual medicine that suppresses heat poison was definitely not ordinary, so he took this matter seriously.
“I’m very sorry, Mr. Ironmask. Please state your terms,” Qian Dabao walked in and said straightforwardly.
If he was here to negotiate a partnership, there are always mutual demands.
“You can check the product first,” Jiang Xiaobai said nonchalantly.
Qian Dabao walked forward with a serious expression, opened the porcelain bottle, and the unique fragrance of the cleansing pill filled the room.
Instantly, Qian Dabao felt the same as Lu Lian had described, the feeling of his heat poison being suppressed was incredibly soothing.
Without making a fuss, Qian Dabao didn’t say anything to Jiang Xiaobai and simply scraped a bit of the pill powder into his mouth.
The cooling sensation spread through his body, and the heat poison was instantly suppressed slightly.
Just a slight suppression left Qian Dabao shocked. He knew that they now had an extraordinary presence in the Golden Pavilion.
“Mr. Ironmask, forgive my presumption, but where did you get this pill?” he inquired.
“Would you like me to show you how to refine it?”
Jiang Xiaobai gave a faint smile and subtly revealed his identity as the Yuan Infant Old Monster.
This carried a lot of implications.
Qian Dabao was a shrewd man who ran the Golden Pavilion.
“My conditions are really simple. I just want to establish a long-term cooperation,” Jiang Xiaobai said calmly.
“Mr. Ironmask, there are countless business alliances in the Eastern Region, and there are many forces that can topple the Golden Pavilion. Why would you choose to cooperate with us?” Qian Dabao asked.
Although the effect of the cleansing pill was terrifyingly powerful and it was certain that a long-term partnership with Jiang Xiaobai would yield amazing profits,
Qian Dabao was not foolish. He knew what the consequences would be if the cleansing pill were made public.
Therefore, some things are better laid bare.
“The long-term cooperation is only part of it. My ultimate goal is to have you spread the word about this cleansing pill.” Jiang Xiaobai had anticipated this.
“As for what happens after, rest assured, I will still continue to cooperate with you.”
Qian Dabao fell silent. He squinted his eyes and looked at Jiang Xiaobai while weighing the porcelain bottle in his hand.
Jiang Xiaobai calmly sat in his chair, waiting.
“We, the Golden Pavilion, can agree to Mr. Ironmask’s terms. However, it is indeed tough to set a price for this cleansing pill…” After an unknown amount of time, Qian Dabao finally spoke.
“Coincidentally, the Golden Pavilion has an auction tonight. We could auction off the cleansing pill to determine its price!”
In the Tianxuan Continent so far, there were very few effective ways to suppress heat poison. Only some extremely powerful individuals possessed such techniques, while the rest were helpless.
The heat poison plagued cultivators their entire lives!
The debut of the cleansing pill in the cultivation world could course a sensation that was unimaginable.
“Agreed.”contemporary romance
Having said this, Jiang Xiaobai rose from his seat and walked out. The auction would take place tonight, and he had ample time to attend to another matter before then.
Soon, Jiang Xiaobai was standing in front of a small shop.
This place was not considered in a good area within Tianyuan City, surrounded mostly by commoners and unnoticed by cultivators.
“Sir, how do you find this shop? It’s truly open on all sides, with a bustling crowd of customers. The business is good. If the previous tenant didn’t have to deal with some issues at home, this shop wouldn’t have become available,” a middle-aged man with a sleazy face said with a grin.
Meanwhile, Jiang Xiaobai was looking at the rundown shop in front of him, his mouth twitching beneath the mask.
The shop was filled with dust, many places were broken, and if one didn’t know better, one would have thought it was abandoned.
“How much?” asked Jiang Xiaobai.
“The annual rent is a hundred thousand white silver taels, if…”
“I mean to buy it,” Jiang Xiaobai interrupted with a husky voice.
“This… buying it would cost a hefty sum, after all, you know the business here is…” he started, but before the sleazy man could finish his sentence, Jiang Xiaobai threw over ten top-quality spiritual stones.
He was in a hurry.
Taking the spiritual stones, the sleazy man instantly stuffed them into his pockets. His eyes were full of shock as he looked at Jiang Xiaobai.
Only immortals would use such things!
