Luo Chen, the Pill Hall lost a whole thousand Spirit Stones last month. As the head of the Pill Hall, you should have an explanation!”
Mi Junping stared at Luo Chen with a frosty face.
Luo Chen was taken aback, “An explanation for what? I faithfully refined the pills and all the ones I produced were sold by you. Why are you asking me about the losses?”
“Moreover, you haven’t given me my share of the profits from last month.”
Mi Junping gritted her teeth: “We’ve lost so much, and you still have the audacity to ask for profits?”
Luo Chen shed his playful expression and said seriously, “We had a deal at the outset. My share of the profits would be from a single type of elixir, subtracting the cost of raw materials and part of the cultivator’s monthly salary. Last month’s loss wasn’t due to the Allure Pill but rather the Jade Marrow Pill.” “If you have objections, I can stop refining the Jade Marrow Pill and focus on the Allure Pill.”
Upon hearing this, Mi Junping hesitated.
The Allure Pill was indeed profitable, albeit not by much, but at least it generated some profit.
However, as she was hesitating, Mi Shuhua had already spoken with an unyielding tone.
“No way!”
The Jade Marrow Pill must be refined, and more resources must be devoted to it to increase its quantity and improve its grade!”
He stared at Luo Chen quietly, “In the future, you can even forgo the Allure Pill, and concentrate all your efforts on making the Jade Marrow Pill. The gang will support you to the fullest!”
“Father, but…”
“Shut up!”
After glaring at Mi Junping, Mi Shuhua forced a smile.
“Luo Chen, tell me how long it will take to guarantee improved success rates, not to mention refining the Medium Grade Jade Marrow Pill?”
After a month of observation, Mi Shuhua was certain that the Lower Grade Jade Marrow Pill didn’t yield much profit.
The cost even saw a significant increase due to the low success rates.
The Jade Marrow Pills refined by Luo Chen last month were sold at a loss!
The cost of the raw materials for a batch is five Spirit Stones, and a bottle of
Jade Marrow Pill sells for ten Spirit Stones.
However, it takes ten batches to produce slightly more than one bottle. Anyone can do the math.
The Broken Mountain Gang was incurring unsustainable losses!
The only way out was to improve the pill-making success rate and raise the grade of the pills.
If it was a Medium Grade Jade Marrow Pill, a bottle could be sold for forty to fifty Spirit Stones altogether.
If rogue cultivators couldn’t afford it, they could sell it individually!
Even if it’s the Lower Grade Jade Marrow Pill, if Luo Chen could raise the success rate to over half, it would be barely sustainable.contemporary romance
Facing Mi Shuhua’s gaze and a mild Foundation Establishment Stage pressure, Luo Chen felt slightly uncomfortable. However, the longer he stayed in this insidious, self-serving Immortal Cultivation World, the more accustomed he became to his role.
Under control, Luo Chen forced out a helpless bitter smile.
Gang Leader, it’s not that I’m not trying my best. It’s just that pill refinement isn’t something you can force. It requires a vast accumulation of experience.” “I know that. Hence, I’ve never blamed you for the previous failures.” “Moreover, my cultivation level is too low to handle long periods of pill refinement.”
“Every month, I’ll give you an additional bottle of Qi Nurturing Pill.”
Hmm?
Such a good deal?
Luo Chen’s heart skipped a beat, but he kept his face expressionless.
He shook his head sorrowfully, “It’s not about pill. It’s the confusions in cultivation. I, Xiao Luo, truly have no guidance!”
With these words, everyone understood immediately.
As rogue cultivators, they all faced various challenges in their cultivation journey.
Besides, even among cultivators having discussions and exchanges, many were reserved.
Luo Chen tentatively said: “I wonder if the Gang Leader has any relevant cultivation insights. Any pointers would be extremely useful for refining the Jade Marrow Pill.”
Mi Shuhua hesitated for a while, then finally turned his gaze on Mi Junping.
“Ping’Er, give Luo Chen that jade slip!”
Ml Junping paused before finally pulling out a jade slip from her Storage Bag against her resolve and throwing it to Luo Chen.
As soon as Luo Chen held the jade slip, he tried to inspect it, but there was no response as he infused Spirit Power.
“This jade slip is made by a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. It needs
Spirit Consciousness to inspect. Since you can’t externalize your Spirit
Consciousness now, you can view it by pressing it against your forehead.”
Mi Shuhua’s voice sounded in his ear.
Luo Chen instantly understood and hastily pressed it against his forehead.
“Qi Refinement Insights,” written by Mi Shuhua.
In this little jade slip was Mi Shuhua’s lifetime cultivation insights from Early to Late Stage Qi Refinement.
Furthermore, they were almost completely unobscured. Luo Chen gained a lot of insights just from the records of the Early Stage Qi Refinement.
Since they were in a meeting, Luo Chen quickly skimmed through the content and carefully put it away.
Seeing this, everyone else was filled with envy.
Some even speculated in private, was Luo Chen really Mi Shuhua’s illegitimate son?
He treats him so well!
If Luo Chen knew about this, he would only scoff.
In my life, Luo Chen has never met a wise and just leader.
If Mi Shuhua doesn’t mind, I wouldn’t mind acknowledging him as a godfather.
Then, thoroughly fleece him!
At the end of the meeting, Mi Shuhua dropped a piece of news.
“In the winter, The Great River District will, according to tradition, hold a major auction.”
I have a few spots available. If anyone wants to go, let me know.”
An auction, ah!
That’s a place where countless treasures will appear. Many Qi Refinement Stage Cultivators may not get the chance to attend a large auction in their entire lives.
Upon hearing this, many were tempted.
Luo Chen’s eyes also lit up!
