Chapter 34: Twenty-Four Thousand Gold Coins

  Taking advantage of the night, Lin Chen refined several epic and legendary potions. He then diluted all these potions with water into high-quality potions. After diluting 100 portions each of the calming potion and treatment potion, he finally went to sleep.

  One night without words, when the sky brightened, Xia Lu got up very early, looking like she was in a hurry to return to the Imperial City to hand over the Bone Tempering Flower to her brother. However, Lin Chen shook his head and asked Xia Lu to wait another day, as he needed to sell the medicine and exchange some materials for refining equipment.

  When Lin Chen had something to attend to and needed to wait another day, Xia Lu, despite feeling anxious in her heart, could only nod her head in agreement. It wasn't until after Lin Chen finished his breakfast that he went downstairs, but found the large hall on the first floor was packed with people.

  However, there were two familiar faces among them. One was the warrior who helped Lin Chen pull in customers, and the other was naturally the archer from last night. However, this time the archer had his head down, looking like he had done something wrong.

  "Are you here? Let me introduce...". Seeing Lin Chen walk down the stairs, the warrior brought a high-ranking Lv46 warrior and walked up to Lin Chen, saying while introducing: "This is the Hundredman of the Whirlwind Mercenary Corps, one of the four major mercenary corps, Luo Pa."

  "Stormwind Mercenary Corps? Isn't that the mercenary corps he's in? What a coincidence! " Upon hearing this warrior's introduction, Lin Chen was taken aback and glanced at the archer who was lowering his head, but remained expressionless. Although it seemed too coincidental, there weren't many mercenary corps that could afford to consume 200% high-grade medicine. It just so happened that they ran into Stormwind Mercenary Corps, one of the four major mercenary corps.

  "As for Lin Chen's idea, this warrior naturally didn't know and turned his head to introduce Ropa, saying: 'This is the excellent pharmacist I was talking about. He currently has 100 doses of excellent healing medicine and tranquilizer each in his hands.'"

  "I didn't expect that at such a young age, you are already an excellent pharmacist... truly remarkable for someone so young..." The hundred-man commander, Ropa, had a kind smile on his face as he gazed at Lin Chen in astonishment. Excellent pharmacists were not uncommon, but ones as young as him were rare.

  "Nowhere, just so-so...", Lin Chen's face showed a faint expression as he replied, and with a wave of his hand, he took out 100 doses of treatment medicine and tranquilizers from his package and placed them on the table. "Everything is here, name your price. If it's reasonable, these medicines are yours."

  Transactions, Lin Chen likes to be straightforward, so he has no interest in the hundred husbands' courtesy. After all, when they first met in "Tian Zu", some top-notch people had already seen each other, and he was just a delivery boy, not too much courtesy would be exchanged.

  "Hmph……" Although he was somewhat displeased with Lin Chen's coldness, when the two hundred high-grade medicinal pills filled the table, this centurion's displeasure instantly dissipated, and his entire line of sight was drawn to the medicinal pills on the table.

  Everyone on the first floor of the hotel stared with wide eyes at the medicine laid out on the entire table, and they all gasped in unison.

  Two hundred vials of medicine, this is not a small amount, everyone knows, but when things appear in front of you, then casually one bottle worth over a hundred gold coins of medicine piled up like a small mountain, it's too dazzling. At this time, everyone's line of sight was attracted by the medicine piled up like a small mountain on the table, including Xia Lu and the archer who was originally lowering his head on the other side.

  The entire first floor of the inn was silent, with everyone staring at the medicine on the table with wide eyes. However, Aitrus, who was following Lin Chen, secretly curled his lips. Last night, he had personally seen how Lin Chen refined more than a dozen bottles of medicine and then directly diluted them into 200 portions of high-grade medicine using clear water.

  "Today is a big deal for our Gale Mercenary Group's transaction! I hope those unrelated people can make way!" Ropa quickly came back to his senses, looked around the first floor of the inn at other unimportant people and said, although his mouth was speaking polite words, but his tone and expression told everyone that it's better to leave quietly.

  As Luo Pa's words fell, more than 20 intermediate swordsmen of the Gale Mercenary Corps immediately stood up, more than 20 intermediate title holders, making those who still had some complaints dare not speak out, and could only leave the tavern obediently. Soon, the entire tavern was left with Lin Chen and the people of the Gale Mercenary Corps, as well as that warrior who acted as a bridge between them.

  After the unimportant people left, Centurion Luo Pa turned his head to look at Lin Chen and said: "Now, high-quality potions, healing potions, and tranquilizing potions are all around 100 gold coins in price. Considering the quantity of these potions, our Thousand Man Commander of the Gale Mercenary Corps has already stated that we will purchase them at a price of 120 gold coins per unit."

  Ordinary things, the more you buy, the cheaper they are, after all, it's about selling in bulk at a low profit. However, this is only true for mass-produced items that are made to sell well. But these medicinal concoctions are priceless and rare, the more you have, the more expensive they become, because even with money, you may not be able to buy them.

  "One hundred and twenty gold coins? Two hundred sets would be 240,000 gold coins, right?" He nodded slightly, and Lin Chen could still accept this price.

  Seeing Lin Chen nod, the leader of the hundred men, Luo Pa, secretly rejoiced in his heart and knew that Lin Chen had accepted the price. He hastily took out a small box with a magic array drawn on it, took out a special key to open the box, and pulled out a gold ticket from inside. He handed it over to Lin Chen: "This is a gold ticket from the Luo Mo Money House! 24,000 gold coins! Please take a look!"

  "Golden ticket?" Lin Chen was taken aback, nodded and took it over. The so-called golden ticket was made of a special paper with mysterious magic arrays engraved on both sides, which were obviously anti-counterfeiting magic arrays, with the words "24,000 gold coins" written on it.

  Although it was the first time he saw the golden ticket in this world, Lin Chen didn't know how to distinguish it, but he thought that the other party wouldn't cheat him, so Lin Chen didn't ask much, lest he would attract special attention for not knowing common sense things. Lin Chen nodded and took the golden ticket down.

  "Excuse me, where is your residence? If there's an opportunity! I hope to still be able to purchase some medicine." Seeing Lin Chen take out the gold ticket, this hundred-man commander had a trusted aide carry a spatial bag and put all the medicine inside. At the same time, he asked Lin Chen, it was clear that being able to maintain a good cooperative relationship with an excellent pharmacist was a very cost-effective thing for the mercenary group.

  "I won't be staying in the same place for long, no fixed address...", Lin Chen shook his head and said with a wave of his hand: "Alright, it was nice cooperating, I still have some things to attend to, so I'll take my leave".

  "Alright, sir, you're busy, we'll be off...", nodded the centurion, taking over a spatial bag handed to him by a mercenary beside him. He nodded and said, then turned around and walked out of the inn. However, when he passed by the archer, he let out a cold hum, "Take this guy with us! Deserting from the mercenary corps on his own! To be dealt with as treason!"

  "Yes!", hearing Luo Pa's words, the two ultimate swordsmen beside him nodded silently and reached out to grab the archer, apparently intending to take him away together.

  "Hold on...", seeing this situation, Lin Chen spoke up to stop him, looking at the puzzled eyes of the hundred officials, said: "I still have some things to say to this person, can you give me a bit of face".

  "Since you've spoken up, I'll naturally give you this face...", Hearing that it was Lin Chen who had acted, he looked at the archer with some surprise, not understanding how he could know Lin Chen, a top-notch pharmacist. However, the Hundred-Man Commander nodded and spoke in a way that gave him face, before calling out to the mercenary group's people to leave.

  He was in a hurry to deliver the two hundred doses of high-quality medicine back to the mercenary corps.
