Unrivaled Medicine God

  Talking until the back, Qian-er’s words even had somewhat of a spoiled child’s overtone.

  Her voice was nice to listen to. If it were a guy, their bones would probably turn limp under such an attack.

  Ye Yuan was, of course, moved as well. But this sort of outcome was Qian-er’s own fault. He would not sympathize.

  “Miss Qian-er don’t need to waste your efforts already. Things that this Ye decided, nobody is able to change it! The profit I can give you guys now is only 30%. If you guys aren’t willing, I can find other trading firms to collaborate. I believe that this Ye’s medicinal pills should interest quite a few trading firms,” Ye Yuan said resolutely.

  Of course, there would be quite a few trading firms who would be interested!

  The medicinal effects of the medicinal pills increased 40-60% from the original base. Such a substantial increase was simply a martial artist’s must-have!

  This sort of medicinal pills, how could other trading companies possibly not be interested?

  Seeing Ye Yuan’s attitude so resolute, Qian-er regretted inwardly!

  Except, she could also tell that Ye Yuan really did not plan on yielding.

  Stinking brat! Since when has this Grandaunt begged people so meekly and humbly before? You actually fail to appreciate the favor! Qian-er said indignantly in her heart.

  These words, she just thought about it in her heart but did not dare to say it out.

  Angering Ye Yuan, then there was really no collaboration anymore.

  Qian-er said helplessly, “Fine then, I yield! 30% means 30% then! It’s just that the medicinal effects of your medicinal pills are so strong. The cost probably rose quite a bit, right?”

  Ye Yuan said smilingly, “Miss Qian-er rest assured. The cost of these medicinal pills is only 70-80% of those medicinal pills out there.”

  “What?! Y-You aren’t joking, right? The medicinal effect increased so much, but the costs are lower than ordinary medicinal pills instead?” Qian-er nearly jumped up.

  “Huhu, this Ye doesn’t have the habit of cracking jokes. The Meteor Trading Company can send people to supervise the consumption of medicinal herbs as well as the output of medicinal pills. If this Ye is lying, it will naturally be clear,” Ye Yuan said with a smile.

  “. . . . . .”

  Qian-er already did not know what she should say!

  She currently felt that what Ye Yuan said was not wrong at all. She, this manager, was seriously too lacking in vision, losing 20% profit in vain!

  Chapter 730. Discount Promotion |

  The Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company was the Ancient Opulence City’s largest trading company and also occupied the most profitable districts in the Ancient Opulence Street. It just happened to be facing the new Fragrant Medicine Pavilion opposite the street.

  Now that the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion was about to open for business anew, many people naturally adopted a wait-and-see attitude as well, having a look if this Fragrant Medicine Pavilion could cause any impact to the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company or not.

  Different from the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion, the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s business scope was rather extensive.

  Whatever martial artists required, they virtually dabbled in all of it.

  But to talk about what was the most profitable, it was undoubtedly still medicinal pills. No reason other than medicinal pills were one-off consumable goods. It was indispensable to martial artists.

  Regardless of where martial artists walked to, they could not be missing medicinal pills on them.

  If two martial artist’s strength did not have a big difference, when fighting to the end, a lot of times, what they fought out with were actually medicinal pills!

  Alchemists’ statuses were lofty. This was also a very important reason for it.

  With the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion opening for business, as the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s chairman, Zuo Xin obviously would not be that at ease.

  He got the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s head alchemist, also the Ancient Opulence City’s one and only Alchemy Saint powerhouse, He Shuming, to come over and discuss countermeasures.

  “Alchemy Saint He, the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion opposite is going to open for business tomorrow. They already let out news that there are several types of medicinal pills about to appear on the market. Could it . . .” Zuo Xin said rather worriedly.

  If it were before, Zuo Xin absolutely would not be worried about a Divine Traversing Realm boy.

  But now, even He Shuming became Ye Yuan’s defeated opponent. He had no choice but to place emphasis on it.

  Hearing Zuo Xin’s words, He Shuming was also annoyed inwardly. But he still said coolly, “Rest assured, Chairman. Ye Yuan this brat is at the very most just a measly little Alchemy Sovereign. How big a wave can he stir up? Even if his medical skills are overwhelming, it’s futile if he can’t find Tier 6 medicinal pills too! I want to see just how he will use Tier 5 medicinal pills to gain a firm foothold in this Ancient Opulence City!”

  Actually, Zuo Xin thought this way in his heart too. But he was really quite uncertain on what move to make. Was Ye Yuan really a young calf who did not fear the tiger, or was he simply a fool?

  Picking up the gauntlet opposite of the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company, where did his confidence come from?

  As the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s helmsman, Zuo Xin was naturally aware of Ye Yuan’s stunning performance in the city recently.

  But he also knew that those people Ye Yuan cured, Tier 6 medicinal pills were not used at all!

  This also indicated that Ye Yuan could not refine Tier 6 medicinal pills.

  One had to know that the greatest consumer group in the Ancient Opulence City were Boundless Realm martial artists. Below Boundless Realms were mostly impoverished people. Even though this group was extremely massive, those who truly had consumer power were not many.

  “I wonder if Alchemy Saint He has any countermeasure?” Zuo Xin inquired.

  He Shuming said with a cold smile, “Rest assured, Chairman. I’ve already arranged a grand show! I want to take a look at what mood this brat would have when this Fragrant Medicine Pavilion goes out of business on the first day it opens for business.”

  Hearing He Shuming said so, Zuo Xin set his mind at ease too. But he asked curiously, “Grand show? What kind of grand show?”

  “Heh heh, you’ll naturally know at that time! However, our Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company has to take some action too. I want to make Ye Yuan this brat unable to survive even a day in the Ancient Opulence City!” He Shuming said coldly.

  Although the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company was helmed by Zuo Xin, He Shuming’s status was extraordinary.

  It was also exactly because they had He Shuming that the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company could overpower the masses, sitting firmly on the throne of number one all along.

  Zuo Xin nodded his head when he heard that and said, “That’s of course! I’ve already made the arrangements. Starting from tomorrow, all of the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s Tier 5 medicinal pills will be sold at 20% discount. If the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion has Tier 6 medicinal pills, our Tier 6 medicinal pills will also be sold at a discount.”

  “Heh heh, Chairman is indeed experienced and vicious! Giving out an offer of 20% in one go. We can crush them completely in terms of price. He, a newbie, I don’t believe that he can afford a war of attrition with us! Most likely, they would have to wind up shop in a few days.” He Shuming laughed delightedly.

  “Huhu, no idea what kind of price the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion paid either, to actually be able to make the Meteor Trading Company back them up from behind. But I think that the price they paid is definitely not small. But that Ye Yuan is indeed a clever person. If finding a backer in the Ancient Opulence City with their strength, the Meteor Trading Company is indeed the most apt,” Zuo Xin said.

  Hearing that He Shuming also prepared a big move, the anxiet
y in Zuo Xin’s heart also went away.

  With both simultaneously, this Fragrant Medicine Pavilion was bound to not operate for long.

  “That brat has nothing at all apart from the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion’s title deed! Other than this title deed, what else can he take out?” He Shuming said.

  Zuo Xin nodded his head in agreement too. He thought so as well.

  . . . . . .

  The next day early morning, the Ancient Opulence Street’s Fragrant Medicine Pavilion opened for business.

  For the sake of the grand opening this time, the Meteor Trading Company also put down an arm and a leg.

  They revamped the entire Fragrant Medicine Pavilion’s decorations to a brand new look. Just looking at this shop front, it was absolutely not inferior to the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company opposite!

  Once the surrounding martial artists saw this stance, this was completely taking up the challenge with the opposite!

  But when these martial artists saw this sort of situation, they were secretly gleeful in their hearts too.

  With two major trading companies challenging each other, it could not dispense with some price war. The medicinal pills which they originally did not dare to sell could be sold this time.

  Although they did not feel that the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion could sustain for long, in this period of time, it was the most economical time for them as ordinary martial artists.

  The Fragrant Medicine Pavilion’s side had yet to officially open for business when the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s manager already opened up its front doors and yelled at the top of his voice, “Everybody, my Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company has always received everyone’s great kindness. So we decided to give back to our friends. Starting from today, for one month, all of the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s Tier 5 and below medicinal pills will be sold at 20% discount without exception!”

  “20%! I didn’t hear wrongly, right? Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company really poured in blood capital this time!”

  “Yeah. The quality of Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s goods is very good. But the prices are all very pricey too. Moreover, it always remained high and never went down. This time, in order to squeeze this newly opened Fragrant Medicine Pavilion, they are actually selling at 20% discount for a month straight!”

  “Haha, even though we don’t hold much hope for this Fragrant Medicine Pavilion, we still have to thank them! Did you guys hear that or not? This Fragrant Medicine Pavilion doesn’t even have one Alchemy Ancestor powerhouse. They can only sell medicinal pills below Tier 6.”

  “En, I’ve heard too. This kind of strength, how could they dare to challenge Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company? The Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company has Alchemy Saint He holding down the fort!”

  “Who cares. Either way, it’s good that we buy medicinal pills cheap!”

  The manager’s words caused a huge uproar among the martial artists.

  Very soon, the martial artists originally planning on crowding around and watching the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion’s grand opening all ran inside the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company one after another.

  For some time, the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company was thronged with visitors inside, like a market, while the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion’s side appeared quite deserted.

  But there were still some martial artists who remained here still. These martial artists were mostly low on funds. Even if the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company were selling at a discount, they had the heart but were lacking in strength regarding those medicinal pills too.

  Hence, they wanted to try their luck at the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion here, to see if they could pick out some good stuff at a low price.

  After all, a low-grade medicinal store that only sold Tier 5 medicinal pills, the price presumably should not be very high, right?

  Chapter 731. Challenging the Dojo |

  “Lord Chairman is really brilliant! With the prices of these medicinal pills being lowered, it attracts even more people to come and buy these Tier 5 medicinal pills! At this rate, our sales are probably going to be several dozen percents more than before!”

  The Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s manager was filled with admiration towards Zuo Xin in his heart when he saw the throngs of people.

  Zuo Xin smiled and said, “Lowering prices normally, that is lowering your status yourself. But once opponents appear, us lowering prices happens without extra effort. Speaking of which, we still have to thank this Ye Yuan. But this sort of method can only be used for a short while. It will be detrimental without benefits over a long time.”

  “Your Excellency is wise!”

  “Huhu, don’t need to curry favor! We’ve already made our move on our side. The next step will be up to Alchemy Saint He,” Zuo Xin said smilingly

  Zuo Xin was aware of He Shuming’s displeasure towards Ye Yuan. Therefore, he would definitely make Ye Yuan unable to bear the consequences of failure today.

  This set of combination blows landing, he did not believe that a brat still wet behind his ears could withstand it!

  At their store, the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion’s manager said with an indignant face, “This Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company is seriously too shameless! This is our first day opening for business, and they used this kind of measures. Too insidious!”

  The Fragrant Medicine Pavilion’s manager was that elderly man Ye Yuan saw on that day when he went to Meteor Trading Company.

  The elderly man’s name was Li Huisheng; he was a manager with a very long record of service and credentials in the Meteor Trading Company.

  Ye Yuan’s manpower was seriously limited for such a big Fragrant Medicine Pavilion. But Qian-er attached very high importance to this collaboration, practically pouring in the entire Meteor Trading Company’s strength into the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion.

  Regarding this, Ye Yuan did not refuse.

  This sort of thing like management was actually not what he was good at.

  A master specialized in his own field. Ye Yuan did not like to stick his nose into other fields for everything.

  Li Huisheng was indeed very experienced in this area. The Meteor Trading Company running badly was not because the management was bad.

  Of course, such a large Fragrant Medicine Pavilion, Ye Yuan could not possibly let the Meteor Trading Company occupy a nest which wasn’t theirs.

  He arranged for Yu Ming to be an assistant of Li Huisheng. It was learning in-name, but actually, there was also the intent of monitoring the management.

  Yu Ming never would have dreamed that he would be able to manage such a large medicinal store one day.

  As long as Ye Yuan was able to gain a firm foothold on this Ancient Opulence Street, Yu Ming could be said to soar to the skies in one bound, enjoying all manners of wealth and glory.

  Being around Li Huisheng, he did not need to be responsible to Li Huisheng. He was only responsible to Ye Yuan!

  Regarding this, Yu Ming’s feelings of gratitude towards Ye Yuan already could not be expressed using words.

  The investment in Ye Yuan back then was simply too worth it.

  Ye Yuan’s manpower was lacking. He even took in Yu Ming’s brother, Cheng Jiang, too.

  The two people quit their ascension pool guarding duty and wholeheartedly stayed here at Ye Yuan’s side.

  If it were others, wanting to break away from the city guards army was naturally not that easy. But after Ye Yuan let Luo Fang know, this was merely a piece of cake.

  Apart from this, Ye Yuan even helped Ren Dong and Xiao Ruyan got two identity tokens. This way, they could openly appear in front of people.

  Back then when they ascended, Ye Yuan was afraid of incurring trouble and kept Lu-er and the rest into the Vast Heaven Pagoda at the final juncture.

  Now, Ye Yuan was considered to have gained a firm foothold in the Ancient Opulence City. Getting two identity tokens was naturally nothing hard.

  With this, the manpower on Ye Yuan
’s side was just enough.

  Through a period of training, Xiao Ruyan and Ren Dong both broke through to the Alchemy King Realm.

  Under Ye Yuan’s guidance, their strengths were far greater compared to ordinary Alchemy Kings.

  Letting them refine Tier 4 medicinal pills was achievable.

  The group of people bustled about but they were very resentful toward the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s actions.

  “Zuo Xin that old fellow is shrewd and planning something bad. Mister Ye is challenging them right opposite of their store. It’s impossible for them to allow us to grow unchecked. Using this sort of despicable means is also within reason. When our Meteor Trading Company had just arrived at the Ancient Opulence City, we wanted to get a foothold on Ancient Opulence Street too. Weren’t we also squelched by them until we could only go to another place? If it wasn’t like this, how could we possibly not be able to open up the situation all the way until now?” Qian-er said.

  Very clearly, even Qian-er also acknowledged that this Zuo Xin was very formidable.

  To be able to develop the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company to this sort of degree, Zuo Xin contributed tremendously.

  But Ye Yuan smiled when he heard that and said, “Don’t need to complain anymore. If they don’t take some measures, it would be weird instead. Selling on discount this sort of means is not considered much either. I think the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company likely still has other cards to play!”

  Qian-er was alarmed when she heard that and said, “Still have other measures? This . . . What kind of measure would it be?”

  Ye Yuan was just about to speak, when he looked over outside the door and said with a smile, “Isn’t it here now?”

  The group looked over towards the entrance and saw seven to eight people flood inside the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion all at once.

  These seven to eight people were all wearing alchemist attires. The six stars on their chest were very dazzling.
