Chapter 30: The easy way out
"3 Rare rank pill recipes, those should be enough, right Elder Sword?" Jiang Chen asked with an all knowing smile.
"Jiang Chen, I don't like the idea of these recipes to be easy to mass produce, or be too useful. It might be a disadvantage to us in the future." Nanbeng Choi added his thoughts.
"Right. I will make sure they are extremely complex, but useless in fundamental value…how about pills that will help restore lost limbs but with different flaws in them?"
"Wouldn't these be useless to people of such high cultivation bases? They can just regrow limbs right?" I asked.
"Yes and no. You see Brother Feng from the Nascent Soul realm, people still fight with their bodies but they can regrow it by giving up and nourishing their body by using their souls. It is a cost.
Same for Divine cultivators, their soul would be damaged, it's just for them, their soul can recover more, while for Nascent Soul cultivators, their Soul cannot recover since it is still growing, causing an unstable foundation."
I nodded my head at his explanation, something he probably got from the Alchemy God's knowledge,
"So, the disadvantages can be something along the lines of needing 90% of their Qi to keep the body part functional for 1 pill, and the other being needing to recultivate just that specific body part."
Disadvantages…I liked that idea.
My slaves true benefits should belong to me only.
"Alright. Elder Feng, can you set the buy with The White Dragon Merchant Association."
"It can be done easily, since Rare ranked pills practically don't exist. Even if it is not too useful, they will just have the opportunity to learn from the pill recipe." Said Elder Sword, as he left to set the buy.
"Nanbeng Choi, I want you to call the Sect Master here to protect you. Then, I want you to go out training here and try to find some items. With your luck I might get soul based items.
And the density of lightning here is insane."
"I understand Brother Feng." He said with a nod.
"Master. I have contacted my contacts in The White Dragon Merchant Association, when they heard that we have 3 rare rank recipes to offer, they said they would be sending a member of their board here. It seems like they plan to take this trade seriously."
I nodded at this…if the cultivation base is close enough, I can just control that person.
"What cultivation rank is a member of their board?"
"Peak Martial King master." Elder Sword replied.
Shit, it seems like this is going to be a legitimate trade.
"When will they be here?"
"In about 1 hour. They will travel through a flying ship of the 9th rank. Space talismans don't work for such long distances."
I nodded at that and dismissed the Elder Sword.
"Jiang Chen, it's time to put more of that Alchemy knowledge to good use."
…
(POV, Board member of the The White Dragon Merchant Association, Member Fu Li)
Color me as surprised when we got a notification from our Northern Branch members, that someone wants to trade Rare ranked pill recipes.
The second he heard of this, the merchant leader immediately sent me, his most trusted aid, to oversee this trade.
Recently, The Sword Holy land who usually do not care about affairs and politics have been getting rampant in preparation to receive their 'Sword Prince.'
Dam The Sword Holy land, they rarely trade with us. If we could expand our market to them, we would be the absolute controllers of this continent!
Now, we have to face the tariffs imposed onto us by The fucking Long empire.
Anyways, with this trade, a lot is about to change.
First of all, the possibility to make connections with a 'Rare' rank alchemist! That in itself is amazing enough!
Then, even if the alchemist remains reclusive, there is the fact of having 3 Rare ranked recipes!
In the entire world, there are only 14 Rare ranked recipes, and we ourselves only have 8 of them. While it's the highest in the entire world, it's not enough!
Each set has their own unique selling point, and ours is money! Alchemists are a vital part of our organization, and having stronger Alchemists means more money! More money means we can gather more troops and become an Empire or Holy Land ourselves!
I know that leader doesn't want to walk down this path, but he himself will break through into the ranks of an immortal in maybe another hundred thousand years! His daughter barely has interest in this trade so I am next in line to lead this place.
"We need to get those recipient pes no matter the cost." I said, as I poured more of my Qi into the Flying Ship.
I also need to make sure to keep my mouth in check and not offend anyone.
Why offend an existence that is potentially a Rare Rank Alchemist without breathing through into the ranks of an Immortal?
"Sir, we are vastly approaching the Northern Continent. We can already see this 'Border Town.'" My attendant told me.
Perfect, it's time to make a trade.

(POV MC)
It didn't take long for us to see a flying ship soon, just like it was predicted.
Great, now this trade has to go well. I cannot manipulate the opposing side since their rank in cultivation is too large. I will need to get the method through normal conversation.
They are probably really excited by the fact that a Rare Rank Alchemist probably exists.
Why wouldn't they, Alchemists are colossal existences.
Oh, did I mention, Jiang Chen would be leading this discussion? I will only be instructing him on some occasions...
