I Have Medicine Chapter 94

Gu Zuo didn’t understand too clearly, and quietly asked: “Big brother’s not worried that they’ll deliberately lower the amount of successful pills?”

Gongyi Tianheng startled. Soon after, he laughed as he shook his head: “How could the people here be like Ah Zuo, controlling the quantity of refined medicinal pills with a thought…”

Gu Zuo was struck dumb.

So to say, he was classified as a genius among pharmacists now?

It sounded…pretty cool.

Time quickly passed.

There were so many pharmacists interested in the pill seal as well as the Anti-Aging Pill that, unwittingly, twelve pharmacists had already gathered and were interested in “applying for the job”.

Seeing as how it was almost time, Tianheng didn’t man the stall any longer. After instructing Dragon One and Dragon Two to tidy up the stall, he moved onward — Just as he was waiting for it, Dragon Two already went to pack everything up in a large hidden chamber.

For this Pill Fundamentals Association, the Fengyun Chamber of Commerce had been very considerate and had made preparations early on.

A group of people departed. There were many behind them who were all clicking their tongues in wonder.

“Which outer sect disciple could attract the interest of so many pharmacists?”

“Don’t tell me he wants to recruit all those pharmacists?”

“Unfortunately, it’s getting late. Otherwise, I could make a few inquiries…”

“You shouldn’t carelessly ask about a Qingyun Sect disciple. You’ll provoke someone!”

These discussions only lasted a short while before passing.

Not too many ripples were made…

In a secret room.

Because it was one the chamber of commerce especially prepared, it had more than ten pill refining cauldrons, which was enough for these pharmacists to conduct an exhibition.

Although it was actually Gu Zuo who was in charge of observing, Tianheng was still in charge on the surface.

Tianheng transmitted to Gu Zuo: Ah Zuo, carefully pick the ones who have the greatest potential and the most experience.

Gu Zuo faintly nodded: I understand, big brother.

Immediately following that, Tianheng smilingly stated: “Each and every one of you are people with talent. Yet, I’ll have to ask you all to refine the three types of medicinal pills you’re the most proficient in.”

Those pharmacists listened: Freedom of choice instead of assignments? Although this limited the issue of luck in assigning a target pill, this displayed a certain degree of fairness. There wasn’t anyone who was dissatisfied.

Afterwards, all the pharmacists began moving their hands one after another.

The medicinal herbs were naturally ones they prepared themselves… After all, this was considered a competition for the job!

Not long after, the fires within the twelve pill cauldrons were ignited. All twelve of the pharmacists present were low grade — If they truly reached mid grade, then it showed that they had a good foundation in every aspect or that they were nurtured by other powers. It was also unlikely for them to seek refuge with others lightly.

Gu Zuo’s psychic power expanded to cover the entire secret room.

Ever since he successfully reached Xiantian, his psychic power’s functions had another upheaval. Currently, he only needed a bit of gelatinous psychic power to have it proliferate. It was like casting out a huge net, and all of the particulars within this net would be projected into his mind in exacting detail. Not even the tiniest ones would be missed.

At this time, Gu Zuo used this psychic power to observe the pharmacists’ medicine refining levels, from which he would select the most suitable candidates.

Among these pharmacists, there were several who were dedicated suppliers or honored associates. Their cultivation methods were slightly better, and when they used their hand seals, they were very adept. The pill fires under their control blazed vibrantly. In addition, some pharmacists could see that it was pure mastery through self-training. Perhaps it was after practicing with some pharmacists, but it was probably based on their own comprehension.

After about half an hour, the pill cauldrons issued whistling and popping sounds, which was the start of the pill production.

The pharmacists demonstrated their pill receiving methods once more, revealing their skills, and used jade bowls to catch the medicinal pills from the cauldrons. At this moment, the melodious sound of the collecting process echoed constantly. It was pleasant to listen to.

Over the course of Gu Zuo’s observation, he was already aware of these pharmacists’ levels.

He kept silent, only transmitting to Tianheng in his head: Big brother, the oldest one, the one wearing blue clothes, the thirty something year old with the beard…

Tianheng remained calm and collected. He walked before each pharmacist individually, and took the other person’s jade bow. As if with great experience, he carefully examined the medicinal pills inside. In reality, after suffering from an incurable disease for many years, although he couldn’t refine medicine, he was still rather skilled at differentiating medicinal pills. After looking over them all and thinking about the transmission of his little pharmacist, he made his decision.

After that, Tianheng faced Dragon One and nodded his head. Dragon One hurriedly offered nine jade bottles. Soon after, Tianheng felt around in his sleeves and retrieved a stack of golden banknotes.

Hence, there were nine pharmacists who received Tianheng’s present of a bottle with three Anti-Aging Pills and a one-hundred denomination golden banknote. Then, they were courteously sent on their way.

Their hearts were naturally somewhat disappointed, but even though they failed, they could obtain these benefits. There weren’t any grudges in their hearts; rather, they felt Tianheng was quite generous.

Only Gu Zuo felt helpless: Another thousand gold walked out the door…

He was aware that Tianheng’s act was for the sake of developing a bond of good karma with those pharmacists. Spending this money was very normal, but when he recalled that pile of gold that could fill a small chest, his heart felt heavy again.

After taking a deep breath, he decided to be a bit more composed in the future. After all, it was as his big brother said: To earn more, one needed to spend more. He also couldn’t be too stingy!

Gu Zuo, who was already trying to overcome the mentality of a small town resident, had his eyes trained on those nine pharmacists departing. He himself never discovered the pinched expression that flashed across his face.

On the contrary, Tianheng detected this, and laughingly shook his head a little.

But at this moment, the most important thing was still the reception of the remaining three pharmacists — If there weren’t any mishaps, they’d be the first batch of people to act as Gu Zuo’s cover up. At the same time, they’d be the ones he’d need to nurture later on.

And for such people, measuring their loyalty would be the number one consideration.

After thinking things over, Tianheng invited the others to sit down: “Although this matter has already been raised, I still need to ask once more — Are you all willing to be my devoted suppliers?”

A supplier and an associate weren’t the same thing.

An associate had comparatively more freedom. They could obtain a certain salary, but they couldn’t enter a power’s core. At the same time, they didn’t have too big of an obligation. They only had to set forth a certain amount of contribution to the power based on the prior “business contract”.

But a supplier relied on a power, obtained better treatment, and dedicated themselves fully. Basically, when one was with a power, one’s glory was everyone’s glory and one’s suffering was everyone’s suffering. Over a long period of time, the power would develop a strong trust in the supplier. Being a pharmacist supplier wasn’t bad. If one was a supplier of the martial path, sacrificing their lives for the sake of that power was a common matter during a crisis.

The three pharmacists thought back to that astonishing hand seal, and their hearts trembled: “We’re willing.”

Tianheng’s smile became warmer: “Since everyone has already agreed, I’ll ask you all to sign this Blood Essence Contract to be lifelong suppliers.”

At this time, Dragon Two handed them three sheets of paper.

The writing on this paper was clear: The Gongyi Clan’s Gongyi Tianheng shall acknowledge these three pharmacists as lifelong suppliers. The pharmacists may not divulge any related secrets. If this is violated, they shall be immediately executed.

There was also fine print that explained parts of the pay Tianheng would give them. Among those not mentioned, > was actually indeed recorded.

In addition, the three sheets of paper had already been signed in Tianheng’s own name using blood essence.

After that, the three pharmacists also needed to do the same.

Upon seeing this, their hearts relaxed. They all bit their fingertips and wrote their formal names on the signature lines.

Henceforth, the three of them were Gongyi Tianheng’s pharmacist suppliers.

On the side, Gu Zuo watched it all clearly, but deep in his heart, he still felt it was a little unreliable.

Whether that blood writing was effective or not… If they didn’t abide by their word, was could be done? Even if the traitor was executed, it could still bring about lots of trouble.

Just as he was thinking this, Tianheng’s voice echoed in his head: Ah Zuo, ask the system if there are any other methods besides Drug Slave Binding to prevent a breach of the contract.

Gu Zuo suddenly understood.

So it was like this!

That blood writing…was just a formality.

Tianheng really was someone who thought this way.

Gu Zuo’s secrets were of great importance. In order to conceal him, they had no choice but to search for some pharmacists to act as suppliers. He also had to pay attention to not let the pharmacists snoop around Gu Zuo’s differences. Merely, no matter how careful he needed to be to guard against accidents, he was accustomed to planning ahead. Before making a decision, it was only natural for him to plan for the worst.

Tianheng recalled the time when they first met and the actions he performed, as they reportedly signed that guardian contract. While he could only gamble on it, he didn’t put his complete trust in that contract. But after all of the system’s miraculous phenomena, he carefully scrutinized this contract and discovered that it was indeed quite binding. Then, he was naturally convinced.

On top of that, he knew that it also had Drug Slave Binding, which could control people… As a result, he was also skeptical whether the system still had other kinds of restrictive commitments in its collection.

Here, Gu Zuo promptly asked the system.

The system gave a quick reply.

[Law of the Heavenly Oath: Worth fifty strands of medicinal qi. Does the host want to exchange?]

Gu Zuo replied without the slightest hesitation: Exchange!

Instantly, a line of text appeared in his mind. It was an account of the previously mentioned Law of the Heavenly Oath.

After learning about it, he promptly informed his big brother.

Tianheng looked at those pharmacists who’d already signed their names, and smilingly said: “Apart from this, I still need to ask everyone to swear on their medical beads not to divulge any of my impermissible secrets.”

Those pharmacists didn’t understand why, but they still made their vows and agreed.

As a result, they all individually said:

“I, Zhang Mingyuan, swear on my medical beads not to divulge any of Gongyi Tianheng’s impermissible secrets.”

“I, Wang Cheng, swear on my medical beads…”

“I, Fang Zhiyao…”
