Chapter 347 A Bussiness Proposition!

"So, what happened? Do you inherit that technique?" Chun Churan asked with concern showing on her face.

"Yep," Joey responded. He looked at his right hand and saw that the white and purple jade spatial ring was still on his finger. He further added, saying: "From now onward until the start of the tournament, I'm going to invest myself in cultivating this technique. Plus, I'm going to make a ton of weapons."

He approached his study desk and picked up a pen and a bundle of papers. Then he scribbled down for the next ten minutes.

"Since you insist on helping me earlier, then have a look!... Those 356 lists of materials, I need them with that amount of quantities. So, can you get them? If not then don't ever break a sweat. I'll ask help from Senior Jugge Huan." Joey said.

"Did someone just call me?" A voice came from outside his chamber, followed by a peal of booming laughter "Can I come in?"

"Oh, it's Senior Jugge! Please, come in." Joey responded.

Then a handsome youth wearing a purple Daoist robe walked inside the room, grabbed a chair nearby, and occupied it unceremoniously.

Joey sat facing him. He poured the warm tea into the two cups on the table, filling them to the brim, and passed it on in front of the newcomer.

"Would you like some tea, Senior Jugge? My wife prepares this for me. And believe me, she is really good at brewing tea." he asked with a friendly smile.

"Then I'll love to try it." Jugge Huan took a sip and responded, "Um, right, this tea is amazing."

Then he continued, "I didn't mean to eavesdrop on you but I happened to hear…something about asking help from me, right?" He looked around and saw that Chun Churan was reading a bundle of papers.

Realizing something, he further added, "Sonny, don't you fret about asking anything you need? Can I have a look, little Ran Er?"

All this time, Chun Churan had been browsing on that bundle of papers and she just ended, up reading them. She stood up and responded, "Nope! We won't be needing your help regarding these things." And she put them inside her space ring.

"Eh, don't be like that little girl. Let me just take a look. Actually, I owe too much to your husband and what I can help is to just provide him with all the alchemist materials and herbs." Jugge Huan said sincerely.

"Then you don't need to read them because my husband is not going to need any of those materials. Oh, please, have some more tea while you are here, elder Jugge." Chun Churan replied in an icy cold tone. Then she glanced at Joey and her countenance changed completely. She said, "My Lord Husband, there is no need to involve others to get those cheap things. Then, I'll excuse myself."

She bowed slightly to Joey and briskly walked out of the room.

Joey took a deep breath and said with a wry smile, "Senior Jugge, I apologize for Ran Er's poor manner today. Please, don't take it to heart. She has always been like this."

"Nah, you're overthinking it. Anyway, what is with that list of materials?" Jugge asked and then he drank up all the tea on his cup.

Refilling up the empty cups, Joey responded with a question, "Oh, about that, Senior Jugge, what brought you here? And do you need any of my assistance?"

Jugge Huan scratched his head and then he tossed a space ring to him and he said, "I need those batches of pills. Can you make them within a week?"

Joey didn't respond hurriedly as he glanced inside the space ring and found out that it was filled with a large number of herbs.

"Senior Jugge, about that, I'm sorry. I can't concoct any of those pills anymore," he responded.

"Why?... Anyway, then what about you write down the procedure for concocting those pills? They hit really hard this time in the market and the demands keep increasing rapidly." Jugge Huan said with great expectation.

"Sorry, I can't do that too!" Joey declined readily.

Hearing that, Jugge Huan frowned with disappointment. And when he was just about to ask the reason, Joey said briskly, " I have another proposition…. What about this? Senior Huan, from today onward, I'm going to make a lot of magical weapons and I want you to sell them instead of pills. You have already established a broad mass of customers, so this won't be a struggle for you. What did you think?"

"You want me to sell weapons instead of pills!" Jugge responded while giving a strange look and he screamed in his head, 'Boy, are you nuts! You're telling the Alchemy Union of the Central Continent to sell some fucking weapons.'

Seeing his expression, Joey continued explaining patiently, "Senior Jugge Huan, you have already learned about the purities of my pills while comparing them to others. It would be the same for those weapons that I'm going to make. The purest and finest weapon that no one in this Ancient Armament World has ever seen before. As you know, my wife Ran Er seems to be from a super rich business family, I use her influence to get some good money. Don't let this golden chance slip through your fingers!"

His words kind of clicked something in his head and started pondering deeply regarding the pros and cons of selling weapons with his organization as a pill-selling alchemy organization.

In the meantime, Joey continued to sip from time to time, enjoying the green tea while letting the man ponder on his business proposition.

Chief Jugge Huan cracked his brain thinking hard for the next ten minutes and he finally opened his mouth coming to a final decision, "Alright, I'll sell them for you. But I need the pills too."

Joey explained, "Senior Jugge, let me be totally honest with you. Yesterday, I made a heavenly pledge in the name of my master. Forget about concocting pills, I can't use any of the techniques, skills, and weapons that I have learned until the moment of the promise. So, I can't."
