Lu Qingxuan was a university student in her twenties who had just graduated. Although she was young, she was already the owner of a medicinal pill trading business. Although she inherited her father's company, she was considered one of the best among her classmates who graduated in the same period.
Ever since she returned to Jinghai City and took over her father's business, who had retired early due to poor health, although she was young and a woman, it was inevitable that she would sometimes be looked down upon by others. However, with the foundation laid by her father over the years and the expanded network, she took over the company smoothly after taking over.
But just a month ago, everything changed dramatically. A young master named Chu Zhiguo took a fancy to her. It was nothing at first.
Since she was a child, her appearance had been outstanding. She had a beautiful face and a slender figure. When she was in school, she was known as a goddess. She had many pursuers, including some young masters of big companies.
However, she rejected them all. She did not look at these young masters who relied on their parents to survive. Modern society was ruled by law. Even the power of the rich and powerful was limited. It was impossible to bully men and women as they wished like in the old society.
Therefore, she did not take it to heart. As long as Chu Zhiguo retreated after a period of time, it would be fine.
But who would have thought that Chu Zhiguo would be humiliated after pursuing her for half a year to no avail. He simply became angry and threatened to ban her company, making it impossible for her company to survive in the industry.
She did not take it to heart at first. It was not until an accident occurred in a business deal that she realized that Chu Zhiguo was not joking.
While she was not paying attention, a senior executive in the company signed a big deal for the company. The deal of hundreds of Body Forging Pills was worth nearly ten million. If it was successful, the company would earn at least a million.
For a big company, ten million was nothing at all, but for a small company like theirs, it was already a very large amount.
If this deal was successful, it would completely let her sit in the position of the company's CEO, but there was a problem with this deal. The company's senior executives who signed this deal quickly jumped ship, and the two alchemists who were originally hired by the company also resigned at the same time.
This was originally not a big deal. After all, there were not many intermediate alchemists in the entire Jinghai City who could refine Body Forging Pills, but there were still many.
However, when she planned to find other alchemists, she found that all of them had been warned not to refine pills for her. This was obviously a trap waiting for her to jump into.
It just so happened that the breach of contract for this deal was very high. If the goods could not be delivered on time, they would have to pay tens of millions.
In addition, the total market value of her small company was only tens of millions. In order to complete this deal, she had to borrow millions from the bank to buy herbs for refining Body Forging Pills.
If it could not be completed in the end, her company could only go bankrupt.
At this moment, Chu Zhiguo appeared in front of her. Only now did she know that everything was caused by Chu Zhiguo.
Chu Zhiguo's Chu family, Tengda Corporation, was a large and influential group that operated medicinal herbs and pills in the entire Jinghai City. Even in Donghua City, it was ranked at the top.
Tengda Corporation's main business was medicinal herbs and pills. They had to deal with these alchemists, so they had a great influence among them.
Even the alchemists in the Alchemists Association had to give face to Tengda Corporation's order. After all, they did not have to pay much. They only had to not refine pills for Lu Qingxuan's company. They could then receive a favor from Tengda Corporation. It was a good deal, so why not?
Even so, Lu Qingxuan was unwilling to give in to Chu Zhiguo just like that. She had heard some things about Chu Zhiguo when he was pursuing her. He was arrogant and domineering. Of course, she did not want to be with such a person.
She asked people in the Alchemists Association in the city to find alchemists who were willing to help. At the same time, she also contacted alchemists in other cities.
However, the delivery date was getting closer and closer. All of her efforts were futile, as if she was struggling before her death.
Tomorrow was the delivery time. Everything was too late. Even she was desperate. That was why she decided to come to the black market to try her luck. However, Tengda Corporation's influence had obviously seeped into the alchemists in the black market.
The alchemists in the black market either did not have this ability or did not want to offend Tengda Corporation for this deal.
When she saw Chu Yunfan, she almost turned around and left when she saw that he was so young. He looked like a high school student at most.
It was not that there were no high school students who obtained an alchemy apprentice license. In fact, there were quite a lot of them. However, the problem was that the Bodybuilding Pill was not something that alchemy apprentices could refine at all.
The few kinds of pills needed to take the alchemy apprentice exam did not include pills like the Bodybuilding Pill.
Even beginner alchemy apprentices did not know how to refine it. Only intermediate alchemy apprentices could refine it.
Moreover, she did not want to refine one or two pills. She wanted to refine hundreds of pills. It was not something that one or two alchemy apprentices could complete in a short period of time.
However, the confident look on Chu Yunfan's face made her feel a little more hopeful. She was like a drowning person who would not let go of a life-saving straw even if it was a life-saving straw.
"Of course, you don't believe me. Since you found someone to refine the Bodybuilding Pill, you should have prepared the herbs needed to refine the Bodybuilding Pill. Won't you know if I have the ability to refine one?" Chu Yunfan said confidently. "Moreover, I don't think I'm the only one you've asked along the way. I don't know why none of them are willing to refine it for you, but since you have no other choice, I think it's not a bad idea to give me a chance to try!"
"Alright, if that's the case, come with me!"
Lu Qingxuan said.
Chu Yunfan followed Lu Qingxuan all the way to the garage beside the black market. Lu Qingxuan's flying car was parked there.
Through this car, Chu Yunfan knew that Lu Qingxuan's family was not poor. At least, it was much better than his family's. However, she was not very rich. The flying cars parked at Liu Yushu's house all looked much more expensive than Lu Qingxuan's.
