Upon hearing that Jun Changxiao wanted to buy shops in the city, Lu Deshui immediately declared, "Jun Patriarch can choose any of the shops in the city's major streets!"
Not long after.
Servants rushed over from the market, delivering various pill facilities, medicinal herbs, medical books, and so on.
"City Lord Lu, how much is it?"
Jun Changxiao was about to take out money when Lu Deshui hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "These daily necessities don't cost much, just take it as a gift from me to Jun Patriarch!"
"Uh …"
Gou Sheng did not decline and cupped his hands. "Thank you!"
"Jun Patriarch, do you want to have a simple meal first before going to look at the shops, or do you want to go now?" Lu Deshui smiled.
"Let's go now."
"Please!"
Under Lu Deshui's lead, Jun Changxiao strolled through all the major streets of Lin Yuan City. In the end, he chose four stores in the western district that were in a decent location and asked, "City Lord Lu, what's the price?"
"Anything!
He was really forthright.
Jun Changxiao, who had always been fastidious, decided to spend the market price of five million magnetite to buy the four shops after some consideration.
After all the procedures were completed, Lu Deshui smiled. "Jun Patriarch bought so many items related to pills, is he planning to open a pill shop?"
"Yes."
"…"
The System was speechless. "Why do I want to beat him up so much."
Lu Deshui said with a serious expression, "There are two old pill shops in the East and North City. If Jun Patriarch doesn't have any special features, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to establish himself in Lin Yuan City."
Business like pills and weapons were undoubtedly the most popular in the Upper Realm because of the high demand, but at the same time, they were also dominated by many old shops, making it difficult for new shops to survive.
Looking at the entire world, countless shops opened every day, and many closed. Not only would they lose money in the end, but they would also make many enemies.
Jun Changxiao smiled. "Thank you for your reminder, City Lord Lu."
He had all kinds of materials and shops. After exchanging a few pleasantries, he bid farewell and returned to the sect.
Lu Deshui enthusiastically sent him off to the city gate. Only when his figure had completely disappeared did a guard ask in confusion, "Mayor, you seem to value this Jun Patriarch a lot."
For a sect master who had not even reached the Xuan level to be treated like this by the City Lord, it was really against common sense.
"This kid."
Lu Deshui said, "Not simple!"
It was not because of the medicinal herbs that he planted, but because he could bring a sect to the Upper Realm!
Many people thought that this city lord was Ai Shang Yao, but in fact, he was more like Xie Guangkun. Readers who guessed wrong in this chapter, please line up and slap your own face.
…
Jun Changxiao returned to the Eternal Sect along the way. As for Lu Deshui's reminder about the old pill store in the Eastern and Northern Districts, he didn't care about it at all. Since he wanted to do business, he definitely had the core competitiveness.
If you sell Profound Cultivation Pills, I will definitely sell them too. Moreover, the effects are ten times better than yours. I don't believe that there will be no market and no users!
After returning to the sect, Gou Sheng gathered the upper echelons to discuss opening a pill store. He received Yuan Feng's strong support on the spot.
"It's decided then."
Jun Changxiao made the decision. "When the next batch of medicinal herbs matures, we will use them all to refine pills. Then, we will open an Ancient Pill Store in Lin Yuan City. Old Yuan, I will leave the renovation of a few shops in the city to you."
"Yes!"
Yuan Gongzi set off for Lin Yuan City on the same day, accompanied by Feng Gui Chen.
Jun Changxiao wanted to make arrangements for City Lord Lu so that he could take care of him in the future.
Sure enough, when Lu Deshui confirmed that the Chief Alchemist of the Alchemy Hall was really the Hall Master of the Sect of All Times, he was even more polite to Yuan Gongzi, even calling him brother.
"Incredible, incredible!"
"Just with Master Feng's reputation alone, once the Sect of All Times opens an Ancient Pill Store, it will cause a huge sensation!"
What Lu Deshui was thinking was also what Jun Changxiao was thinking, so he ordered Li Luoqiu to spread the news that the Chief Alchemist of the Alchemy Hall was about to open an Ancient Pill Store to further cities.
"…"
After Feng Gui Chen learned of this, he smiled bitterly, "I am no longer the free and easy person who likes to travel the world."
His previous persona collapsed and a new persona was established. He was now the Hall Master of the Sect of All Times' Alchemy Hall and the Chief Alchemist of the Ancient Pill Store.
Fortunately, the Alchemy Hall was not a powerful organization. Other than reporting at a fixed time, they generally did not restrict the activities of their members, let alone interfere with their part-time jobs.
The other seven Chief Alchemists were either honorary Elders of top Sects or honored guests of top families. If they knew that Feng Gui Chen had joined an unknown Sect, they might even look at him with disdain.
…
One month later.
A new batch of medicinal herbs matured.
Feng Gui Chen began to refine various pills.
Because Sun Bu Kong and the others had only been in contact with Alchemy for a short time, they could only help out.
Jun Changxiao was not idle either. He took out a small amount of medicinal herbs to refine Transformation Pills and distributed them to the disciples, striving to make them available to the entire Sect as soon as possible.
"Patriarch!"
Feng Gui Chen also ate a Transformation Pill and felt that his body, meridians, soul, and other aspects had been greatly improved. He was shocked, "What kind of pill is this!"
"A pill passed down in the Sect of All Times!"
"I have studied Alchemy for so many years, but I have never seen a single pill that can enhance so many things!"
As a higher realm, Alchemy was very developed. Naturally, it involved the body, meridians, soul, and other aspects, but a single pill that could enhance so many things and had such an obvious effect was completely unheard of.
"Hall Master Feng, please remember."
Jun Changxiao said, "Our Sect's first motto is to keep a low profile."
"…"
The corners of Feng Gui Chen's mouth twitched slightly as he asked, "Sect Master, why do I remember you saying that your first objective is to be an unyielding person and do unyielding things?"
"Hall Master Feng." Sun Bu Kong whispered, "The first motto of our Sect of All Times is to change things according to the mood of the Patriarch. Just get used to it."
Black lines appeared on Feng Gui Chen's forehead.
The Sect created by Senior Tong Gu was not strict at all!
…
Lin Yuan City.
Gongs, drums, and firecrackers filled the air.
After a while, Jun Changxiao stood in front of the decorated shop in formal attire. He tore off the red cloth hanging on the signboard and announced the official opening of the 'Ancient Pill Store'.
"Congratulations, congratulations!"
Lu Deshui cupped his fists and congratulated with a smile.
On the opening day of the Ancient Pill Store, cultivators from all walks of life gathered on the streets. After all, the promotion was on point and the Chief Alchemist of the Alchemy Hall was present.
At first, they entered the store with the mentality of trying to buy pills, but after learning that many pills were more than ten times more effective than ordinary pills, they were immediately stunned.
"City Lord Lu."
Jun Changxiao handed over a Profound Nourishing Pill and said with a smile, "You can try it."
"Okay!"
Lu Deshui picked it up doubtfully and threw it into his mouth. When the pill's efficacy completely took effect, his blood vessels and pores seemed to open instantly, madly absorbing the attributes and Principles of Heaven and Earth. He exclaimed in shock, "Unbelievable, unbelievable!"
Many Patriarchs saw this and secretly thought, "So exaggerated?"
In fact, this was not exaggerated. One had to know that Lu Deshui had taken a pill yesterday and the expression on his face was even more exaggerated. Originally, he had been asked to cooperate today, but in the end, his acting was not up to standard. This reminded people of Ke Jinnan of the Spirit Origin Continent, a true golden partner.
[City Lord Ke, I miss you so much!]
"Jun Patriarch, I want to buy a Profound Cultivating Pill," A Patriarch said.
Jun Chang Xiao said, "These pills were all refined by Hall Master Feng. As the chief alchemist of the Alchemy Hall, I'm sure no one will doubt his alchemy skills. Therefore, the price of my Eternal Alchemy Store's pills are ten times more expensive than ordinary pills. Because there aren't many of them, there's still a limit."
In fact, there was a lot of stock prepared this time, but Gou Sheng had to control the quantity. Firstly, it was hunger marketing, and secondly, rare goods were expensive.
