Zhao Fu knew about this because he knew that Zhou Ming had been buying large amounts of medicine from the system main city. Zhao Fu knew what Gunador was thinking, but he still asked curiously, "Vice-Lord, what do you need medicine for? Why do you need medicine? I have a few bottles of pretty good medicinal pills. "
As he spoke, Zhao Fu took out a few bottles of medicine and handed them to Gunador.
Gunador hesitated. Now that there were 1,000 or so Orcs that had fallen ill, a few bottles of medicine wouldn't be of much help. However, he couldn't tell Zhao Fu that so many Orcs had fallen ill either.
"It's like this – there's a village that's attached to our Orc City, and all of them have fallen ill. Their bodies are feverish, and they're covered in cold sweat. Normal treatments don't work, so we decided to find some effective medicine to try."
Gunador lied, but whether or not Zhao Fu believed him was out of his control. In any case, it was best not to let anyone else know about this.
After hearing this, Zhao Fu understood what Gunador was trying to say, and he looked quite shocked as he asked, "So many people have fallen ill, and they have these symptoms? Could it be a plague?"
Gunador was also quite shocked – he had long since suspected that this was a plague, but he didn't know how to treat it.
"It's most likely a plague! Sir, do you have any good medicine that can cure this plague? " Gunador had a smile on his face, and he wasn't flustered at all.
Right now, Gunador couldn't let Zhao Fu know about the situation in Orc City, or else he would be at a disadvantage, and Zhao Fu would be able to do whatever he wanted.
Zhao Fu smiled as he replied, "Of course I have medicine that can cure the plague, but it's a bit more expensive."
Gunador could tell that Zhao Fu was going to increase the price, and he let out a sigh of relief. It would be strange if Zhao Fu gave them the medicine for free.
"It's a bit more expensive, but it's mainly because your medicine is effective, so there's no problem," Gunador said as he sincerely smiled.
"Of course! However, Vice-Lord, I'm sure that the great Orc City has conquered many villages, right? How many City Creation Stones do you have? "
After hearing Zhao Fu's words, Gunador coldly harrumphed in his heart, "What a cunning human! Even if such an important strategic item was destroyed, it wouldn't increase anyone else's strength. "Zhao Fu's eyes widened as he looked at Zhao Fu.
However, there was nothing he could do right now. Perhaps Zhao Fu's medicine really would be able to cure the Orcs, so Gunador decided that losing some normal City Creation Stones wasn't a big deal.
He used his 2,000 slaves and ten normal City Creation Stones to exchange for the medicine that Zhao Fu had bought. Of course, Zhao Fu didn't have the medicine, and even if he did, he wouldn't take it out. Otherwise, it would seem too fake.
The two of them decided to carry out the transaction the next day. Today, Zhao Fu went to prepare.
After returning to Qin City and going through the Orc City, Zhao Fu's thoughts became clear. He ordered people to refine a large amount of Hidden Evil into medicinal pills, and Zhao Fu didn't add any Hidden Evil into medicinal pills.
Zhao Fu gave Gunador two types of medicine. One was a medicine to cure the poison, and he would add an antidote to it. The antidote wouldn't cure the poison, but it would delay the onset of the poison and create the illusion that the Orc City was cured.
The other type was a medicine to prevent the Orc City from relapsing. 90% of the medicine was Hidden Evil, 10% was the antidote, and some other things. This medicine was prepared for the 220,000 Orc residents, and if they used this medicine once, their bodies would immediately accumulate large amounts of Hidden Evil. However, the antidote would delay the onset of the poison.
The next day, Zhao Fu brought these two types of medicine to the Orc City to carry out the transaction. The first item was the medicine to cure the poison, and the two sides quickly completed the transaction.
At that moment, Zhao Fu said in a reminding tone, "Vice-Lord, you're not a good person. Generally speaking, plagues are very severe. Without any preventive measures, other people might also fall sick. I have some preventive medicine here. Do you want to try it first? "
Of course, Gunador smiled and refused, saying, "First of all, we can't be sure if Zhao Fu's medicine can cure the Orcs' illnesses. Moreover, the Orc City has already suffered a great loss from this transaction. If we buy preventive medicine, and there are so many Orcs, we'll have to buy a lot. If we buy preventive medicine, we'll be ripped off by Zhao Fu again."
Even though Gunador was smiling, he inwardly felt disgusted by Zhao Fu. Zhao Fu was so greedy and snobbish, and if Zhao Fu was useless to him, Gunador would kill him.
Seeing that Gunador wasn't in the mood to buy, Zhao Fu didn't force him, but he said that he would come back tomorrow!
After Zhao Fu left, Gunador took the medicine and cautiously fed it to a few Orcs to see how effective it was.
Gunador and the Shamans anxiously waited by the side. If Zhao Fu's medicine wasn't effective, there was nothing they could do.
A while later!
Everyone relaxed as they saw that the Orcs' temperatures gradually stabilized. Their bodies were no longer covered in cold sweat, and their expressions weren't as pained as before.
The Shamans quickly took a look and cried out in delight, "Vice-Lord, they've been cured! The medicine's effects are very powerful, and in just a short while, more than half of the Beastmen's illnesses have healed. "
Gunador smiled and nodded. This matter was finally over, and he immediately gave the order to feed the antidote to the other Orcs. However, more news came that a few Orcs had fallen ill.
This made Gunador, who had just calmed down, start to worry again. Could this really be a plague? Even though we've found medicine to cure this illness, we can't just wait until they're sick. "
Suddenly!
Gunador thought about the medicine that Zhao Fu had mentioned, and after thinking about it, he sighed and decided to buy it. He was prepared to be ripped off by Zhao Fu.
Another day passed!
When Zhao Fu once again came to Orc City, Gunador was already waiting for him. However, he didn't directly trade with Zhao Fu this time. Instead, he brought Zhao Fu to a large hall.
The higher-ups of Orc City were all here, and the one sitting at the very top was the City Lord, Kaki.
Following behind Gunador, Zhao Fu suppressed his aura and walked into the hall. He cupped his hands and smiled as he said, "I greet the esteemed City Lord!"
Kaki coldly looked at Zhao Fu and ignored Zhao Fu's respectful smile. He could sense a trace of danger from Zhao Fu, and he didn't like Zhao Fu at all.
He was the City Lord, and there was no need for him to put on a mask or hide anything. He didn't give Zhao Fu any face at all as he asked, "What do you want this time? My Orc City needs a large amount of medicine! "
Zhao Fu felt quite angry at Kaki's attitude, but for the sake of the bigger picture, Zhao Fu endured it. However, his tone became calm as he said, "I want City Creation Stones, slaves, and anything else of value!
"I can give you 200,000 silver coins, 10 City Creation Stones, and 3,000 slaves in exchange for your medicine. Do you want it?"
