Chapter 101: The Start of Qin Faction (1)


    "Partnership? Two other spiritual herbs?" the keyword from what Qin Lan just said sessfully caught Zhou Shen''s attention. As a person with his position now, money is no longer an issue.


    "Yes, senior." Qin Lan nodded.


    "How about exining them in detail while we''re here?" Zhou Shen''s opinion towards Qin Lan changed slightly since the youth before he seems somewhat capable.


    But in his mind, he''s still curious about Qin Lan''s method to turn a piece of barrennd unsuitable to cultivates spiritual herb into one that fertile enough.


    Knowing that Zhou Shen had caught his bait, Qin Lan starts exining things in a simplified manner. Through the soil and spiritual energy proposition of the small-scale farm from his spiritual cave as an example, Qin Lan led the discussion from one concern to another.


    Although it was done in a simplified manner, the way Qin Lan describes how the process can be done intrigued the father and daughter pair.


    "Perhaps, this is how the idiom (Jack of all trades, master of none) came into existence." Zhou Shen nodded as he secretly approved Qin Lan''s skill in guiding them from one stage to another in his own way.


    Of course, there''s an inurate part in his assumption as Zhou Shen has no idea that Qin Lan was someone with two lifetimes of experience.


    "Can we know what kind of spiritual herbs the farm is going to cultivate and what is their expected harvest window each time?" Zhou Shen asked.


    "Sure." Qin Lan nodded. He immediately took two pieces of paper out from his sleeve''s pocket and ced them on the table.


    It was folded neatly with a few words on the front page.


    [Spiritual umtion Pill]


    [Martial Foundation Pellet]


    "The first kind of spiritual herb we''re going to nt will be the Energy umting Fruit. We can expect it to start bearing fruit after the main nt mature after a month, and the harvest session is once every half a month."


    "It will be the main ingredient to refine the Spiritual umtion Pill." Qin Lan exined. Acting as an assistant to her father, Zhou Mei reached out to pick the paper with the [Spiritual umtion Pill] written on it and unfold it for her father.


    == == == == ==


    Spiritual umtion Pill


    => Multiplies the collected Spiritual Energy absorbed during the pill''s maturity by twofold. Consumed immediately after maturity to obtain most of its medicinal value.


    => The pill''s maturity can be hastened through other cultivating medicine, and up to ten pellets can be consumed in a day.


    => Pill''s maturity is equivalent to one-tenth of spiritual energy inside a drop of Precelestial Essence. Effective immediately when consumed.


    == == == == ==


    It was indeed another valuable cultivating resource introduced by Qin Lan, where the selling point of this pill is its ability to doubles the Spiritual Energy that existed.


    When used efficiently, consuming a medicine like this Spiritual umtion Pill is equivalent to taking a Bone Foundation Pill with the price of fifty Flesh Foundation Pills. Although the medicinal value might drop depending on how long it was stored after maturity, a pill like this may rece a Spiritual Essence in many different ways.


    Furthermore, the pill''s maturity time can be augmented through other cultivating medicine...


    The only negative point left is that there is a limit to how many pills can be taken in a day.


    "This medicinal effect... Did it belong to the Cultivating Medicine Path? The medicinal value of this pill is not low..." Zhou Shen keeps nodding his head as he was persuaded by the description of this pill.


    "Yes. I think this pill is going to be a hotmodity in the market." Qin Lan confidently replies to Zhou Shen''s statement. It was reasonable for Qin Lan to feel confident in the Energy umting Fruit and Spiritual umtion Pill.


    It is impossible for those in the Flesh Refining Layer to not be hooked by the effect of this Spiritual umtion Pill. Furthermore, with the arrival of this pill in the market, it would also lighten up the burden on the limited supply of medicinal herbs.


    In Zhou Shen''s opinion, selling this for the price of a single Bone Foundation Pill wasn''t ridiculous at all because it was worth that price. There was also a further thought that went through his mind for a brief moment.


    "What if..."


    "If I give these to groom our Bone Layer experts?" Zhou Shen tried to roughly calcte the saving in resources and time that would benefit him in the long run.


    To a cultivator of Peak Bone Reconstruction Layer like Zhou Shen, money is no longer an issue. But time and resources are. That''s because no matter what''s the height of their achievement, they''re unable to bypass the Five Governing Law of the World.


    As long they''re still using the Bone Foundation Pill to cultivate diligently in a day, it will take them an hour to digest a single pill at a time. Although there''s an excess of Spiritual Energy is surrounding them, how much can they be of use?


    The Spiritual Energy in the atmosphere might be significant for a Flesh Refining Cultivator. But to a Bone Reconstruction expert, it was nothing more than a small breath!


    (Note: The cultivation pills issue has been exined before. All foundation Pills take an hour to digest, no matter what quality it is. This is why treasure like Dragon Moss Extract Qin Lan has, or the Precelestial Essence is highly sought after)


    "Young nephew, I have to say that I am very convinced with the content of this letter and your proposal. But no matter how good it was on the paper, how confident are you in delivering it?" Zhou Shen was delighted the moment all those positive thoughts filled his mind.


    But the discussion would have to eventually return to where it started. And the main concern always rests on how much of the sweet promises are achievable.


    "Would senior believe me if I say I am fully confident that I''m capable of fulfilling them? But in exchange, I''m afraid that the monopoly of this product won''t be in the hand of the pavilion." Qin Lan smiled as he replied.


    "Then, what way of partnership you suggest?" Zhou Shen narrowed his eyebrows the moment Qin Lan replied to his question.


    "The pavilion will provide the Qin Faction with manpower, location, and protection. While in return, we''ll only sell this product through the hand of the Zhou Treasured Pavilion." Qin Lan added.


    "Then, I would like to see how you''re capable of achieving what you''ve promised. How soon can you start?" Zhou Shen continued.


    "That won''t be a problem. But to start, we''ve got to obtain a piece ofnd nearby to a water source. Is this possible for the Zhou Treasured Pavilion?" Qin Lan asked.


    "It can be arranged. Shall we get to it while the iron is still hot?" Zhou Shen is getting ready to stand up from his chair.


    "Gentlemen. Did we forget that there''s another piece of paper here?" Zhou Mei''s hand went to the piece of paper with [Martial Foundation Pellet] written on it.
