Chapter 16

"And…" The chairman smiled . It looked like he was holding something back .

Jiang Chen saw through him directly and said to him, "There will be more holy Gathering Qi Pills . I can consider supplying them to you exclusively . "

"Really?" The chairman was pleasantly surprised .

As long as they could have the exclusive supply of holy Gathering Qi Pills, they would be able to enhance the position of the Pegasus Chamber of Commerce .

"But I won't make any promises to you . If the collaboration is pleasant, I'll keep working with you . If not, then I'll be sorry . "

The chairman nodded . Suddenly he was a little uneasy and asked with hesitation, "Young Master Chen, when Master Cao was checking the panaceas just now…"

"Any problem?" Jiang Chen hated to hear things like Alchemist Master . He thought that was staining the word Master .

"Of course not . Master Cao had a high opinion of your work . He asked to see you, as a junior alchemist . "

Jiang Chen frowned and said, "That is quite unpleasant . "

"No, no, no . " The chairman hastened to shake his head . He said, "Don't misunderstand, Young Master Chen . I certainly understand that we should respect the client's privacy . However, one of the medicinal materials that Young Master Chen asked me to collect is only available in Master Cao's herbal medicine shop . "

"Really?"

Jiang Chen wrote down the ingredients of Hua Yuan Pill a moment ago . He didn't want to expose his intention, so he wrote down more than the necessary ones .

"What's that?" Jiang Chen asked .

"The snake heart flower . "

"Gosh . "Jiang Chen helplessly shook his head . That was one of the necessary ingredients for a Hua Yuan Pill . What a coincidence .

"Then I'll meet him . " Jiang Chen met Cao Chenghua in another room Cao Chenghua looked totally different when he was with his apprentice . He was walking here and there in the room, like a child intrigued by something .

He sat down dramatically when Jiang Chen came in .

"You want to see me?" Jiang Chen asked . Cao Chenghua was shocked when he heard Jiang Chen's young voice . He looked quite confused .

"Those Gathering Qi Pills were refined by my master," Jiang Chen said plainly .

That made sense to Cao Chenghua . He smiled embarrassedly and said, "My young friend, I have a lot of respect for your master . He has refined holy panaceas with the same medicinal materials others use . Only a class seven alchemist could do that . "

Jiang Chen smiled silently . He picked up the tea cup and had a small sip . Cao Chenghua wasn't angry at all at his reaction, but respected him more .

He said uneasily, "I would like to ask my young friend a favor . Could you introduce me to your master?"

"Impossible . Master said that he wouldn't meet any strangers . No one in the Hundred Thousand Mountains is in his eye . However, if you have any doubt, you can tell me and I will pass it on to my master . I'll tell you the answer when I return to the chamber of commerce . "

Cao Chenghua was very disappointed . But it made sense to him . Of course it would be difficult to meet a master . "Here is my doubt . I am striving to be a class three alchemist recently and I am working on class three panaceas . But I always fail . " Cao Chenghua almost felt heartbroken when he was saying this, since the medicinal materials he had used were very expensive .

"If I can get any instructions from the master, I'll be very grateful," Cao Chenghua said .

"Tell me," Jiang Chen answered him simply .

"Pardon me?"

"Tell me how you worked on the class three panaceas with every detail and I'll tell my master . If there is anything missed, I won't be able to help you . "

"Ok, ok, ok . "

Cao Chenghua tried to calm down and told him every detail of the process . He was afraid that there was something left behind, so he just repeated everything one more time .

"I'll tell my master . " Jiang Chen already knew what was wrong when he finished speaking . "And I want a medicinal material…" Jiang Chen made his request after he agreed to Cao Chenghua's demand .

"Sure thing . "

Cao Chenghua was afraid that Jiang Chen wouldn't ask him any favors, since verbal promises didn't count, but a favor gave him the right to make requests .

He didn't hesitate bit when he heard what Jiang Chen needed was snake heart flower . He gifted it to Jiang Chen, without charging a penny . Jiang Chen thought he could instruct him a little next time .

"I'll come back here after the spring festival . And I'll ask the chairman here to inform you . " Jiang Chen said .

"All right . All right . "

After Jiang Chen left, it came to Cao Chenghua's mind that he hadn't even asked for Jiang Chen's name . But from his style of talking and behaving, Cao Chenghua could imagine that he must have an eminent background . By then the three hundred holy Gathering Qi Pills had already been sold . The east courtyard got 60% of the income .

"Young Lord, this is enough to cover our loss in these months . " Fan Tu's admiration for his young lord was almost more than for his master . The Fiery Dragon Horses had been ready out of the chamber of commerce . The low morale when they came had been cheered up . When they saw Jiang Chen and Fan Tu coming out, the servants raised their heads high to show their respect for Jiang Chen . Jiang Chen got up onto the horse . A person came from the Tianhang Chamber of Commerce across the street when he was about to leave .

It was that arrogant Xu Rong . She smiled flatteringly, "Young Master Chen, I was in a bad mood just now and was speaking in a terrible tone . I am really sorry for that . Could Young Master give me another chance to make it up?" She knew perfectly how to use her advantage and had lost all of her arrogance in that moment .

"The panaceas have been sold," Jiang Chen said coldly .

"But there is a next time, right?" Xu Rong blinked, with eagerness in her eyes .

"Just as I said, regret is no use . " Jiang Chen wasn't touched at all . He didn't show any mercy to this woman .

"Young Master Chen, as long as you come to me next time, I will definitely make up for my mistakes . " Xu Rong was already ready to risk anything . Being reserved wouldn't help her at all .

Fan Tu's eyes opened wide with surprise . The daughter of the chairman was talking in a way that a prostitute would use to talk with her clients . This was quite something for him .

Jiang Chen shook his head and showed a wry smile . He urged his horse on .

"Young Master Chen, come to me next time . "

Xu Rong was still smiling apologetically and kept greeting others in the group, which was a funny scene .

…

That night, in the Su's in the Whitewater City, Su Qian was trying her new outfit for the spring festival in her room . She was moving around in front of the mirror, with two maids behind her . At this moment someone reported from out of the door, "Young Lady, Meng Fei is here . "

Su Qian was stunned . She threw the clothes to the maid . Her joyful face turned sorrowful instantly . She was very preoccupied and distracted when she walked out of the room . Meng Fei was a graceful young man . He had his black hair combed back . His skin was fair and clear and he was quite good looking . When he saw Su Qian's weary face, he asked attentively, "Su Qian, what happened to you?"

"That Jiang Chen wrote me a certificate of divorce . " Su Qian was sobbing .

"Certificate of divorce? He is so arrogant . But it's also what you want, isn't it?" Meng Fei said .

Su Qian was weeping . She said, "Do you want the whole world to think that we are together only because no one else wants me?"

"Certainly not!" Meng Fei said .

"But others would think like that, because he divorced me . "

Meng Fei made his mind and guaranteed her, "Don't worry about it . I'll figure out a way . I'll absolutely make him sign the disengagement agreement, even write down why he doesn't deserve you . "

"You promise?" Su Qian was pleasantly surprised .

"Of course . " On seeing her smile, Meng Fei felt she was the only lovely creature and outshone all the other things and people in the world .

He took out a jade bottle in haste and said, "It's for you . " Su Qian opened it and was amazed by what was inside . Even jewelry wouldn't be so attractive to her . "These are Gathering Qi Pills . But they look different…"

"Because these are holy Gathering Qi Pills . The Pegasus Chamber of Commerce restricted everyone's quota to five pills . I had to ask around to get these ten . "

The demand was way more than supply . Three hundred Gathering Qi Pills sounded like a lot, but it was far less than enough for the whole Whitewater City . "Holy Gathering Qi Pills? What kind of master could have refined that?!"

Su Qian shouted in surprise and then said excitedly, "Fantastic . With these panaceas, I can further improve . "
