Qian-er stared with wide eyes and said, “T-Two days? You aren’t joking with me? I have hundreds of Tier 6 medicinal pill orders on hand. That expert behind you can actually refine finish in two days?”
Actually, Qian-er had surmises long ago. What expert behind? Utter nonsense!
This person who refined the Tier 6 medicinal pills was definitely Ye Yuan himself!
It was just that some words, it was not appropriate for Qian-er to say explicitly. Qian-er was a clever person. She knew that once some words were said, their collaboration with Ye Yuan would come to an end here.
Actually, when Qian-er heard Ye Yuan make that sort of promise back then, she jumped in fright too.
It was just that hearing Ye Yuan said that there was a master behind afterwards did Qian-er set her mind at ease a little.
Yet, Ye Yuan and she, they had been very close. She had never seen before whatever so-called expert.
Therefore, she boldly guessed that the one who refined the medicinal pills was Ye Yuan himself!
At that time, she gave herself a great fright too, feeling that this kind of result was too fantastical. How could an Alchemy Sovereign Realm alchemist possibly refine Tier 6 medicinal pills?
It was fine if refining Tier 6 medicinal pills. But they were even all superior-grade and above medicinal pills! This was too outrageous!

Qian-er did not tell anyone the result of her guesses, including the Meteor Trading Company’s people.
It was because she saw a huge business opportunity on Ye Yuan!
Ye Yuan using an excuse that there was an expert assisting behind was because right now, he did not wish for others to know that he could refine Tier 6 medicinal pills.
If she divulged this information, once Ye Yuan knew about it, he would surely fall out with her.
The so-called cooperation would also come to an end here.
But Qian-er was not a short-sighted person. Ye Yuan’s alchemy talent was too heaven-defying. If they made friends with him well, wouldn’t the Meteor Trading Company soar to the heavens in the future?
Once such a character grew up, they would surely astonish the entire Divine Realm in the future!
It was easy to add flowers to embroidery but tough to deliver charcoal in the snow.
Ye Yuan was rising up from a nobody right now. It was precisely the time he needed support. Therefore, Qian-er decided to build good relations with Ye Yuan at any cost!
It was just that even so, when she heard that Ye Yuan only needed two days to finish refining all of the several hundred Tier 6 medicinal pills, it shocked her until her jaws were wide open.
These several hundred Tier 6 medicinal pills, even if given to He Shuming to refine, it would probably take half a month, even a month’s time too.
But Ye Yuan this puny little Alchemy Sovereign actually only needed two days?
Ye Yuan said coolly, “That person’s strength is not what you can imagine. These medicinal pills are not worth mentioning at all in his eyes. Later, you let them send the medicinal herbs and orders all to my residence. Two days later, you’ll naturally have an answer that satisfies you.”
Ye Yuan had said all these, but then he seemed to have thought of something again and said, “Oh, right, these Tier 6 medicinal pill orders, got to restrict them a little in the future. Otherwise, there will be no end to it. Uh … If there are martial artists whose medicinal pills are used for saving lives, they can cut the line or something.”
“This … Alright then. Oh yes, there’s still something. The Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s Chairman, Zuo Xin, has already come to the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion to find you many times. I’ve already told him that you’re in closed-seclusion. But he still comes over every day. I reckon that he should arrive around this time?” Qian-er said.
Ye Yuan was slightly surprised as he said, “Oh? Looks like they almost can’t take it anymore!”
Talking about this, Qian-er said with a smug smile, “That goes without saying! These two month, our Meteor Trading Company launched an attack all-round and already beat their Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company until they don’t have the strength to retaliate at all! Now, in the Ancient Opulence City, our Meteor Trading Company has already leaped to first place as the number one major trading firm, while the market their Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company is occupying now is only less than 30%.”
Ye Yuan came back hastily and entered a retreat very hastily. He really did not pay attention to the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion’s current operation situation.
Now, hearing Qian-er say so, he was very surprised.
That Zuo Xin could lead the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company to firmly occupy the position of number one major trading firm in the Ancient Opulence City, he absolutely had some skill.
Furthermore, the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company was deeply rooted in the Ancient Opulence City. Their relationships were deeply-entwined together into an intricate mess. It was very hard others to go against them.
Even though Ye Yuan was very confident in his own medicinal pills, he also did not think that the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion could utterly beat down the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company within a year.
He did not expect that Qian-er only used two month to squeeze the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company dry until they were only left with less than 30% of the market.
This result involuntarily made Ye Yuan view Qian-er in a different light.
In Ye Yuan’s impression, Qian-er did not have much capability at all, seeing that she was unable to deal with the situation after being so long in Ancient Opulence City. She should have belonged to the flower-vase type. 1
Furthermore, this lass did not have any foresight at all. The last time, she did not look at his medicinal pills at all and was going to drive people out.
If not on account of their chairman’s face, Ye Yuan would probably not even be bothered to work together with the Meteor Trading Company.
Sensing Ye Yuan’s gaze, Qian-er could not help turning angry from embarrassment and saying, “What’s the meaning of your eyes? If you don’t believe me, you can go and take a look at these two months’ accounts!”
But Ye Yuan shook his head and said with a smile, “No need. I believe what you say.”
“Then what do you mean?”
Ye Yuan withdrew his gaze and said smilingly, “Looks like I underestimated you. I didn’t expect that a young lady like you actually has such means. Makes me rather surprised.”
Qian-er smiled smugly when she heard that and said, “This young lady has plenty of means! In the past, it’s just a clever housewife who can’t cook a meal without rice! Borrowing this surge of eastern winds 2 , wouldn’t I utterly destroy Zuo Xin that old punk? If not for the headquarters not agreeing to send an Alchemy Ancestor powerhouse over here, our Meteor Trading Company would long have been the Ancient Opulence City’s number one trading company! Speaking of which, the one who rendered the greatest meritorious service this time is still you. Even if I had any more methods, it’s impossible to bring down the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company too!”
Ye Yuan said smilingly, “It’s for the sake of my own cultivation too. You don’t have to overthink it. But we already know each other for so long, and I only know that you’re called Qian-er. I don’t even know your surname and have never seen your real appearance before either. Isn’t this cooperation of ours … falling short of reality?”
Qian-er was stunned and did not expect that Ye Yuan would suddenly pose such a question. Hesitating for a bit, she still unveiled her own face-veil.
“I’m called Zhao Qian. Now, does it live up to the true sense of the term?” Zhao Qian said with a slight smile.
Seeing Zhao Qian’s beauty that transcended the secular, Ye Yuan’s eyes involuntarily lit up as he praised, “Miss Qian-er has such stunning looks. Wouldn’t doing business yield twice the results
with half the effort? But why do you cover your face with a veil?”
One had to acknowledge that Zhao Qian was absolutely that sort of beauty that was hard to come by. In Ye Yuan’s view, it was at least somewhat on par with Xiao Ruyan.
But Zhao Qian’s face turned cold, and she put the face-veil back on and said with a cold snort, “Knew that you stinking men are all like this! Humph! I, Zhao Qian, do things based on my own ability. How can I parade my looks!”
Finished talking, Zhao Qian turned right around and left.
Ye Yuan looked at Zhao Qian’s departing back view and could not help being slightly absent-minded as he said, “Zhao Qian huh? I wonder what relationship she has with Zhao Xingchen. This forehead looks rather similar!”
…
At the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion, inside a hidden chamber, Zuo Xin gave Ye Yuan a bow and said, “A genius alchemist like Master Ye, this Zuo should have come to pay respects long ago. But there are too many matters to attend to, and I keep being too busy to get away. A sin, a sin.”
Ye Yuan said with a smile, “Chairman Zuo is too kind. Your Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company has Alchemy Saint He holding down the fort. How could you think much of me, this junior?”
Zuo Xin hurriedly said, “Dare not, dare not. He Shuming offended Master Ye. That was all his own idea. This person is very narrow-minded and envious of those better and more able than him. It’s just that this Zuo’s status is lowly. I urged bitterly many times, but he would not stop. Sigh! Fortunately, he brought trouble onto himself and was already called back by the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s Crimson Afterglow branch. Only then did this Zuo able to find this opportunity to come and offer an apology to Master Ye on his behalf.”
When Ye Yuan heard this, he said in surprise, “He Shuming was transferred away?”
Zuo Xin nodded and said, “Yes! Our Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company regards young genius alchemists very highly. But He Shuming he beat down Master Ye by capitalizing on his status. After the branch knew this incident, they were greatly enraged. Not only did they call him back, they even fined him 10 years salary.”
Ye Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly. He didn’t expect that He Shuming actually came to such an end.
Zuo Xin’s mouthful of nonsense, how could he not tell?
It was just that people already brought out the sincerity of their apology. Ye Yuan could not very well expose it.
Chapter 768 - Acting City Lord
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
This Zuo Xin was sly and cunning, pushing all of the blame onto He Shuming, stripping himself clean.
But Ye Yuan reckoned that the matter of He Shuming getting punished presumably should be true.
He had the Meteor Trading Company supporting from behind. This kind of thing, he just had to inquire about it a little, and he would know whether it was genuine or a sham.
Looks like the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company was planning on reconciling with him.
But business was akin to a battlefield. Ye Yuan would not give the other party an opportunity that could be exploited to their advantage because the other party yielded.
Even if Ye Yuan was willing, it may be assumed that Zhao Qian definitely would not be willing too.
“Stop beating around the bush. Talk about your intentions for coming,” Ye Yuan said coolly.
Zuo Xin was not embarrassed at all, fishing out a token and handed it over to Ye Yuan, saying, “Master Ye, this is my Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s gold-level identity token. People in possession of this type of token …”
“People who possess this type of token can enjoy a 40% discount at all Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company branches. Moreover, it’s equal to an 8-star elder rank …” Ye Yuan interrupted Zuo Xin’s words immediately, saying out this gold token’s functions in detail.
Zuo Xin said in surprise, “Master Ye is actually so familiar with my Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s matters! In the entire Crimson Afterglow Holy Land, there’s only one person possessing this gold-level identity token, that is the Crimson Afterglow Holy Land’s Lord! Didn’t expect that Master Ye actually knows so much in detail about this token.”
Truthfully speaking, the headquarters actually sending people to deliver this gold-level identity token made Zuo Xin extremely surprised.
One had to know that people possessing this gold token were basically all holy land heavyweight-class figures. The lowest, lowest, were also Dao Profound Realm powerhouses!
Now, headquarters actually gave a gold token to a Divine Traversing Realm boy. This kind of thing, it was still his first time hearing about it!
Ye Yuan said coolly, “Did you guys deconstruct the medicinal pills newly rolled out by the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion or not?”
Zuo Xin’s heart pounded when he heard that. He did not think that Ye Yuan would actually have such a query. He actually did not know how to word it for a moment.
It was still Zuo Xin’s first time meeting Ye Yuan. Even though he knew that Ye Yuan’s alchemy path strength was very formidable, he did not think that he was actually so astute!
He only took out a gold token, and Ye Yuan actually guessed the matter of deconstructing the medicinal pills. How fast a reaction did this require?!
Seeing Zuo Xin faltering and unable to speak, Ye Yuan continued, “Looks like your headquarters’ alchemists failed the deconstruction. Otherwise, you wouldn’t take this out. Uh … This gold token is indeed very sincere. But do you plan on using one gold token to dissolve my collaboration with the Meteor Trading Company?”
At this time, Zuo Xin came back to his senses too. Shaking his head, he said, “This Zuo doesn’t have this intention. This gold token doesn’t have just those functions Master Ye said. In it still has my Ancient Opulence City Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s 30% performance shares. And we only have one request, which is that we hope Master Ye also supplies these kind of medicinal pills to our Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company. Let us and the Meteor Trading Company sell these few types of pills at the same time.”
A gold token adding on 30% performance shares just to exchange for the selling rights of a few types of medicinal pills. This deal could be said to a certain profit and no losses.
To Ye Yuan, it was 100% sincere.
Ye Yuan was deeply aware of this. But after he thought about it for a bit, he returned the gold token to Zuo Xin and said, “Apologies, I can’t agree to you.”
Zuo Xin could not help losing heart as he said, “This … Could it be that our Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s sincerity is still not sufficient?”
Ye Yuan said smilingly, “Sincerity … is enough. But I, Ye Yuan, am not you merchants. I have my principles. Since I’ve already agreed to collaborate with the Meteor Trading Company, no matter how high your price is, it’s no use too.”
…
Zuo Xin left, but the gold token was left behind.
This gold token was a death-sworn mission issued by upstairs, making him be sure to give to Ye Yuan.
If Ye Yuan did not accept, he could forget about being this chairman already.
Finally, Ye Yuan still accepted the gold token.
He did not mind taking a bit of advantage. As long as it did not go against his principles, it was fine.
Ye Yuan knew that the resources he required for cultivation in the future would be too much. Moreover, the price would become increasingly expensive. Right now, this Fragrant Medicine Pavilion could not support his cultivation for too long.
Wait until his cultivation realm got higher and higher, the earth essence crystals earned by the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion would fail to meet the expenditure.
Using this gold token could have a 40% discount when buying things. Only a moron would refuse.
After Zuo Xin left, Zhao Qian asked Ye Yuan what he came here for. But Ye Yuan smiled and did not speak, leaving immediately, angering Zhao Qian until she stomped her foot at the back.
Two days later
, Jun Tianyu exited seclusion. Not only did he recover to his peak condition, he even achieved a breakthrough in cultivation realm, reaching Third Level Heaven Enlightenment in one go!
Of course, this was Ye Yuan getting Zhao Qian to bring over some Tier 7 medicinal pills. That was how Jun Tianyu could recover his strength in such a short time and obtain a breakthrough.
These medicinal pills were all very valuable things. It was very hard for Jun Tianyu to get them too. But Ye Yuan just casually asked and got it.
Right now, Zhao Qian obeyed Ye Yuan’s every word. Some Tier 7 medicinal pills was also not a big deal to the Meteor Trading Company.
But through this matter, Ye Yuan suspected even more that this Zhao Qian’s identity was not simple.
Because of the medicinal pills he wanted, it was likely not that easy to get even for 6-star managers.
“Congratulations to Brother Jun for breaking through!” Ye Yuan said with a smile.
Previously, Jun Tianyu had been protecting Ye Yuan’s safety along the way like a bodyguard, and he nearly even lost his life. This made Ye Yuan rather apologetic.
No matter what, this favor was owed. Therefore, seeing Jun Tianyu having a breakthrough, Ye Yuan was very happy too.
“Haha, isn’t this still all thanks to those medicinal pills you got!” Jun Tianyu was clearly very happy too, saying with a big laugh.
These few years, he neglected cultivation. His cultivation realm progression had always been very slow.
Now, encountering Ye Yuan, not only did he cure his wife, he even obtained breakthroughs in both concepts and cultivation realm. How could he not be happy?
“Tch, the medicinal pills were procured by me. What are you thanking him for?” Zhao Qian said unhappily.
Ever since that day, even though Zhao Qian would not defy Ye Yuan’s words, she took a liking to bicker with Ye Yuan. She had never given Ye Yuan any good attitude before.
Jun Tianyu was very magnanimous and said with a chuckle, “Huhu, Miss Qian-er naturally have to be thanked!”
“That’s more like it!” Zhao Qian extended her elegant hand towards Ye Yuan and said, “The medicinal pills you promised me?”
