"Nothing much." The Fifth Elder rubbed his hands and revealed a standard 'lecherous' smile in Chu Yang's eyes. He chuckled and said, "I just wanted to ask you … Hahaha … How should I put it …"
Chu Yang almost wanted to escape. He said in a trembling voice, "You're already so old …"
The Fifth Elder glared at him. "What does this have to do with age? I'm old but not old at heart!"
Chu Yang was speechless. "What exactly do you want?"
He thought to himself, "If this old man makes any unreasonable requests, I'll just slap you unconscious and leave."
"How did you get this medicine?" The old man looked at Chu Yang with a greedy look.
"Huh?" Chu Yang was surprised. "Medicine?"
The old man frowned and held back his impatience. "Yes! Medicine! "
"Oh my god …" Chu Yang heaved a sigh of relief. "You scared me to death … I thought you wanted to … do that!"
He wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
This time, it was the old man's turn to be puzzled. He scratched his head and asked in puzzlement, "What do I want to do?"
"Uh, nothing," Chu Yang said awkwardly.
"Huh? Nothing? "The old man's face was full of question marks.
"Uh, cough, cough. I have a special channel for this medicine … Haha." Chu Yang changed the topic. He rolled his eyes and spoke quickly.
"Special channel?" The Fifth Elder's eyes lit up even more like searchlights.
"Yes." Chu Yang chuckled and said carefully, "I have a friend … Erm, a friend who has a good relationship with a zone owner of the Black Blood Forest … Haha …"
"A good relationship with a zone owner of the Black Blood Forest?" The old man was even more excited. He said incoherently, "What's the name of this friend of yours?"
"Hahaha …" Chu Yang smiled meaningfully.
"I'm too presumptuous … Haha. How can I ask about this? " The Fifth Elder patted his forehead self-mockingly and said, "So … he has a huge amount of medicinal herbs from the Black Blood Forest?"
"It doesn't seem to be a lot." Chu Yang explained, "Because after the zone owner collects them, a portion of them will be distributed as welfare to the people of the Black Blood Forest. Therefore, I can only give him a small portion. "
"A small portion is not a small amount. Where is it?" The Fifth Elder had already moved his butt and sat over. "How much is it?"
"This …" Chu Yang hesitated.
"Tell me, what are your conditions?" The Fifth Elder said confidently. It seemed as if he would be able to satisfy any condition that Chu Yang put forward.
The herbs from the Black Blood Forest. What the Chong Tian Continent lacked the most.
"Cough, cough. This friend of mine needs some medicinal herbs that the Black Blood Forest doesn't have … Also, he needs purple crystals. A huge amount of Purple Crystals, an ocean of Purple Crystals … "
Chu Yang's eyes flickered slightly as he said lightly, "Fifth Elder, everyone has brought a lot of medicinal herbs for this Medicine Banquet. Because of the special properties of the medicine, if it's not used, it will be damaged after a long time … So it's usually dealt with on the spot? "
"There is indeed such a thing." The Fifth Elder nodded. He said, "Spiritual herbs of heaven and earth have their own characteristics. The more precious something was, the harder it was to preserve it. Take the Seven Star Exquisite Grass for example. If it's left for a night, it will soften a little. Once it softens, more than half of its medicinal properties will have been lost, and it won't be worth much anymore. But a complete Seven Star Exquisite Grass can be sold at a sky-high price. "
"In addition, in this Medicine Banquet, only spiritual herbs of heaven and earth with their own vitality can be selected. So, even if they are protected by a secret technique, they can't be preserved for long after the journey here. The best way is to deal with them on the spot. "
"Yes, as expected. I heard that after the preliminary competition, there will be an auction of ten thousand herbs? Hosted by the Zhuge Clan? "Chu Yang said softly.
"You want to auction it? The highest bidder will get it? "The Fifth Elder frowned slightly.
If that was the case, the Medicine Valley wouldn't be able to get many of them.
"I have no choice." Chu Yang spread out his hands and said helplessly, "That friend of mine wants to maximize the benefits … Sigh, a profiteer, a pure profiteer."
"Maximize the benefits … That's understandable …" The Fifth Elder comforted him. Then, he asked excitedly, "Then … How much can he offer this time?"
"So far, he's only given me 30 to 40 stalks …" Chu Yang hesitated.
"So many?!" The Fifth Elder was dumbfounded.
To be able to get 30 to 40 stalks of herbs from the Black Blood Forest? This was really an extraordinary method.
"… If he can sell all of them … He seems to have 700 to 800 stalks …" Chu Yang continued.
"Mother!" The Fifth Elder exclaimed, "Oh my mother … 700 to 800 stalks … of herbs from the Black Blood Forest …" He gasped as if he had a toothache. He looked at Chu Yang with his eyes wide open and his mouth agape. His body leaned back with all his might, and he really almost … fell off the chair.
"I heard from him that he has this many …" Chu Yang took out a folded piece of paper from his sleeve. "But the amount of herbs he needs from the outside world is really quite a lot."
The Fifth Elder took the paper and looked at it. He couldn't help but let out a "hiss". His hand that was twirling his beard shook and he actually pulled out a strand of it. "It's indeed quite a lot! This is really … really f * cking comprehensive. Looks like this pharmacist of yours is also a top-notch pharmacist. The f * cking variety of herbs he's chosen. There are only unexpected ones, but not unexpected ones. Sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, tonic, poison, it's all there … "
It was no wonder that the Fifth Elder was shocked. This list of Chu Yang's was practically a complete collection of rare herbs!
Including what kind of herbs he wanted, what name, how old they were, what shape they were, and what color they were. All of these were clearly explained.
If this list fell into the eyes of someone who didn't know the trade, it would only be a detailed list of herbs.
But in the eyes of the Fifth Elder of the Medicine Valley, it was amazing!
Which type of medicine could produce the greatest effect when paired with which type of medicine? Which type of tonic combined with another type of tonic would become a deadly poison … Which type of precious medicine when put together would instead become a bowl of plain water …
The combinations on this list. It was practically flawless.
There were even some recipes that the Fifth Elder didn't know about. Now that he saw them, he immediately understood.
The Fifth Elder looked at it for a long time. Only then did he raise his head solemnly. "These herbs are not especially rare Heavenly Treasures. I believe that most of them can be collected. However … just this order alone is worth a lot. At the very least, we can afford to spend five hundred thousand Purple Crystals. "
Chu Yang nodded slowly. "That's right."
"So, you're only giving me this list. No, I still have to look at the list of herbs in the Black Blood Forest before I can make a comparison and give you a clear answer, "said the Fifth Elder.
"Fifth Elder is indeed a straightforward person." Chu Yang knew that his plan was already halfway to success. He laughed. "The other list has already been prepared long ago. It's here."
As he said, Chu Yang took out another piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it over.
This time, the Fifth Elder read it very quickly. He only looked at the first few lines, the next one and the last one before he immediately closed the list. He closed his eyes and took a few quick breaths. Only then did he open his eyes and say, "If it's really … okay!"
Chu Yang nodded. He said, "This friend of mine has a strange personality and doesn't like to show his face in public … Besides, his identity is sensitive. So, Fifth Elder, please understand this point."
The Fifth Elder said, "As long as there are herbs, everything is negotiable."
Chu Yang nodded deeply and said, "This friend of mine once said that once the transaction is successful and these herbs are auctioned off, the person in charge of this matter can take 10% of the profits."
"10%?" The Fifth Elder's eyes lit up. 10% didn't seem like much, but the Fifth Elder who had just looked at the list deeply knew the terrifying value of this list.
10% was enough to make a person as rich as a country!
"Can I exchange 10% for elixirs?" asked the Fifth Elder anxiously. At his level, he was no longer very interested in things like money and Purple Crystals. The only thing he was interested in were elixirs.
"Of course." Chu Yang laughed. "And the Medicine Valley can definitely participate in the auction. As long as the Medicine Valley has the ability, it doesn't matter even if they buy all of them."
"Buy all of them … The Medicine Valley definitely doesn't have the ability to do so."
The Fifth Elder smiled bitterly. "We can only try our best."
The two of them discussed for a long time and finalized all the details. Then, Chu Yang walked out of the small house slowly and disappeared into the crowd.
The moment he came out, the Fifth Elder immediately sent out a divine sense transmission.
Then, a few divine senses wrapped around Chu Yang's body.
Chu Yang walked out as if he didn't feel anything.
This matter was considered very sudden to him. Originally, he wanted to use Han Xiaoran's name to allow the herbs from the Black Blood Forest to enter the auction. However, that would put Han Xiaoran in a huge crisis. Now that the Medicine Valley had stepped in, it was naturally safer.
The people from the Medicine Valley would definitely not allow these herbs to be lost, so the news would not be leaked.
Before tracking Chu Yang and coming into contact with that 'mysterious friend', the Medicine Valley would definitely not do anything. As for what if they kidnapped Chu Yang in advance and interrogated him … Chu Yang now had Zi Xieqing by his side, who would he be afraid of?
To be honest, he was still worried that the Medicine Valley wouldn't make a move …
Once they made a move and Chu Yang had something on them, with Zi Xieqing's current strength as the world's number one expert, the Medicine Valley would really be led by the nose by Chu Yang if they couldn't win in a fight.
If the Medicine Valley didn't make a move, Chu Yang could smoothly sell the herbs and silently make a fortune.
But if the Medicine Valley made a move, then this matter would immediately become a huge trap for the Medicine Valley! Once the Medicine Valley was involved, with Chu Yang's methods and Zi Xieqing's strength, it was enough to consign the Medicine Valley to eternal damnation!
Therefore, Chu Yang was certain.
He was even less worried about the Medicine Valley's tracking. There was no such person at all. Even if the Medicine Valley had heavenly tracking methods, what use would it be?
Chu Yang left leisurely.
In the highest room of the Medicine Banquet, Mo Qingwu, dressed in red, was curiously leaning against the window and looking at the sea of people below. She was chewing on a piece of candy and beaming with delight.
All of a sudden, the little girl seemed to see a familiar figure in the bustling crowd below …
This back view disappeared in a flash. But to the little girl, it was full of affection and longing. Day and night, her mind was haunted by this figure … It had long been engraved in her heart. Even if it was just a back view, how could she not recognize it?
The little girl trembled all over and almost cried out in surprise. As if she had been petrified, she suddenly froze and stood stiffly at the window. Then, tears suddenly filled her bright and beautiful eyes …
Heart, these two words suddenly surged up and turned into a tide of longing, instantly disrupting her state of mind!
