In the cold and desolate cave.
Luo Chen held his breath and concentrated, sitting on the ice chair with an upright posture.
It makes sense for him to be so serious.
Because, directly opposite him, sat a great monk who was in the late stage of foundation building.
“I didn’t expect that this person would come to discuss business with me in person!”
Luo Chen's heart was filled with ups and downs, some worries, but also some expectations.
Without him!
That's because the person sitting opposite him is Tantai Hao!
A true disciple of the Ice Castle Foundation Establishment, he is also the leader of the law enforcement team of Tianlan Immortal City.
The powerful cultivation in the late stage of foundation building spreads without any cover-up, giving people a feeling of great oppression.
Suddenly.
The momentum subsided.
The handsome female cultivator, who had a strong outline and looked like a man, cast a pair of cold eyes on Luo Chen.
"Did you refine this Jade Dew Pill?"
Luo Chen breathed a sigh of relief and nodded slightly, "Yes, it's me."
Tantai Xun played with the jade bottle in his hand.
"You don't just want to do the Yulu Dan business!"
Luo Chen's heart skipped a beat, but his expression remained silent, "What do you mean by this, fellow Taoist?"
Tantai Xun looked at him, his expression as solid as ice, without any change in expression.
"If you just want to sell Jade Dew Pills, even if the market is not big, you can still afford the huge Tianlan."
"You came to my Ice Castle. It seems that you have just been promoted to Foundation Establishment and are not yet proficient enough in elixir refining, so the output is not high."
"Instead of exchanging spiritual stones to get back the original cost, it is better to maximize its value."
"So, using my Ice Castle name to act is your main purpose."
"I'm right, Dan Chenzi!"
Luo Chen raised his eyebrows.
I didn't expect that the other party could figure out his psychology so well.
The last name "Dan Chenzi" was clearly someone who had specifically investigated him.
It seems that the other party has really put some thought into these three months!
If that's the case, then he doesn't have to hide it.
"As fellow Taoist Taoist Tantai said, I do have this intention."
Tantai Xun didn't expect that the other party would be so calm after he revealed his feelings.
but.
Now that the words have been spoken.
Then there is no need to go through any detours.
"It's not that easy to use my Ice Castle name to do something."
Luo Chen smiled slightly, "Of course I understand. Therefore, I am also very sincere."
"Talk about your sincerity!"
"Within ten years, Jade Dew Pill will only be supplied to Ice Castle, especially fellow Taoist Tantai."
"Ten years from now, or within a hundred years, the Jade Dew Pill may be sold externally, but Ice Castle still has the first right to purchase in bulk."
"In terms of price, I promise to never increase the price. The low-grade Jade Dew Pill only sells for 500 spiritual stones per bottle!"
Currently, the price of second-level elixirs related to cultivation on the market easily exceeds five hundred or even six hundred.
Moreover, it is clear that the upward trend continues.
The most important thing is that the Jade Dew Pill is different from ordinary cultivation pills. For the female cultivators of Ice Castle, who are mainly female cultivators and specialize in water and ice elements, the price is even higher than that of all second-level pills.
In this case, if there is a bulk supply of Gyokuro Dan.
Ice castles are something people are willing to pay big bucks for.
Six hundred?
No!
They can even offer a price of seven hundred or eight hundred!
Now Luo Chen promises five hundred spiritual stones per bottle, and the price will never increase.
Sincerity is evident!
In particular, he also imitated Taibaifang City's special spiritual wine supply to the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect, and made a Yulu Dan special supply ice castle.
This is very comfortable.
You know, in the Jade Cauldron Domain, the sect dominated by female cultivators is not just Ice Castle.
There are also three thousand female cultivators in the Baihua Palace!
With this kind of sincerity, I think the other party will be very satisfied, right?
unexpectedly.
"not enough!"
"Huh?" Luo Chen frowned slightly.
"I don't want ten years." Tantai Xun said indifferently: "A hundred years! Within a hundred years, the Jade Dew Pill can only provide me with the Ice Castle. If I find out..."
"A hundred years will last a hundred years!"
Before she could finish her words, Luo Chen agreed directly.
Tantai Hao took a deep look at Luo Chen, and then nodded lightly.
"Senior sister, let's see the guests off!"
Shi Boying, who had been silent, stood up.
Luo Chen bowed his hands to Tantai Hao and followed the old woman outside.
It wasn't until he left the cave that the coldness that penetrated his bones gradually dissipated.
"Fellow Daoist Shi, I really need to trouble you this time."
While talking, Luo Chen handed over a jade bottle.
Shi Boying was stunned for a moment and subconsciously took it.
She had the intention to refuse, but after finding out that it was the Queen of Jade Dew Pills, she silently accepted it.
Then, a smile appeared on the old face.
"It's not a trouble, it's just good for the sect. I'm just doing it as a matter of routine."
"This thing is with you."
A snowflake-shaped magic weapon fell into Luo Chen's hands.
He couldn't help but look at it carefully.
The grade is not high, but it contains a unique and extremely cold meaning that makes people feel frozen.
"This is the iconic badge of my Ice Castle. You can rub it on the store under your name to show that I am a vassal of Ice Castle."
"It's hard to say about the future, but as long as I, Ice Castle, am on duty in Tianlan Immortal City, no one will dare to provoke you."
"Even if you switch to other sects in the future, I think they will give you three points of thin noodles."
It was rare for Shi Boying to say a lot in one breath.
After hearing what she said, the stone in Luo Chen's heart completely fell.
This way.
Luo Tianhui has truly taken root in Tianlan Immortal City.
Have your own business.
We also have two or three foundation-building combat capabilities.
There is also a backer behind him.
Indispensable!
Next, you can start doing business boldly and earn spiritual stones for practice.
Luo Chen thanked him.
Then he and the other party discussed trivial matters such as the quantity of Jade Dew Pills to be supplied each year and when the payment for the goods would be delivered.
In this way, this matter comes to an end.
"Then I'll take my leave now."
"Fellow Taoist, walk slowly, I won't see you off."
"Well, farewell!"
Seeing Luo Chen's handsome figure leaving in the clouds, Shi Boying tightened the jade bottle in her hand, feeling a little uncomfortable.
She has lived in Ice Castle for a long time.
This time, it was also because of her age and the lack of manpower in Tianlan City that Ice Castle was on duty, that she went out to handle chores for the sect.
I have never encountered this kind of..."bribery" before.
Needless to say, this feeling is quite amazing.
After putting the jade bottle away, she adjusted her mentality and returned to the cave.
"Is the deal settled?"
A cold voice came.
Shi Boying couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart, and she said respectfully: "It's settled. Luo Chen is indeed not yet proficient in refining the Jade Dew Pill. Therefore, in recent years, the supply of the pill may not be stable, with no more than Five bottles.”
If outsiders heard it, they would probably laugh at me.
Is the transaction of just five bottles of elixir worthy of such seriousness from both parties?
But only the parties involved know what this means.
If you are not skilled, you can provide five bottles a year.
So what happens after you become proficient?
Ten bottles, a hundred bottles?
even more!
Therefore, Tantaixi extended the special supply period to a hundred years.
Such a long time is enough for the other party to improve their proficiency, and she can also get enough benefits from it.
Shi Boying was outside just now and only came back to her senses.
Although she is older, she is not as far-sighted as Tantai Xun in this regard.
"Five bottles? It's not much different from what I expected."
Tantai Hao glanced at Shi Boying and said, "Don't report this matter to the sect. The number is too small and you will not be able to claim credit, but it will easily cause trouble."
Shi Boying was surprised.
Reacted immediately.
The other party wants to intercept this batch of pills for his own practice!
Even the low-grade Jade Dew Pill is far more effective for female cultivators than the middle-grade Heqi Pill provided by the Yaowang Sect.
With the help of this batch of elixirs, I'm afraid the opponent will soon be promoted to the eighth level of foundation building!
After she agreed to this, she curiously asked about another matter.
"Why don't you recruit this person into my ice castle?"
Ice Castle is a golden elixir sect dominated by female cultivators.
But it doesn't mean that there are no male cultivators in the sect.
Some male cultivators who are suitable for practicing the Ice Castle Technique will also be admitted.
But most of the time, after they have achieved some success in cultivation, they are sent out to deal with various industries for the sect.
What's more, there are also Taoist couples formed by powerful female cultivators in the sect, who have lived inside the ice castle for a long time.
Luo Chen knows how to refine the Jade Dew Pill, which is a panacea that can help the Ice Castle female cultivators.
According to common sense, we should recruit...
Facing the other party's indifferent gaze, Shi Boying suddenly woke up.
If we recruit him now, wouldn't it be equivalent to sharing the resource of Luo Chen with other people in the sect?
He seemed to be aware of her inner doubts.
Tantai Xun said coldly: "This time, that time. Under the current situation, our sect will not easily recruit outside casual cultivators."
"Especially someone like Luo Chen, who comes from Dahefang and has an ambiguous relationship with the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect."
Shi Boying nodded.
Suddenly, she caught a message in the other party's words.
"Jade Cauldron Sword Sect?"
"Could it be that my Ice Castle has formed an alliance with Luoyun Sect?"
"Be careful!" Tantai Xun shouted softly, and then said indifferently: "Sister, there are some things that you just need to know well and don't need to publicize."
Shi Boying took a deep breath and nodded heavily.
Indeed, this kind of thing cannot be said to the outside world.
The current situation in the Jade Cauldron Territory is that the Luoyun Sect unites Ailao Mountain and Qingdan Valley to fight against the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect and the Yan Alliance.
The former has great momentum, while the latter has profound foundation.
If Ice Castle is announced in a hurry, it will easily cause big trouble.
It's better to do everything quietly.
However, after thinking about the addition of Ice Castle, Luo Yun Sect will combine the power of the three sects, and the chances of winning are quite high.
"If the Luoyun Sect succeeds, will my Ice Castle be able to do it and no longer be limited to that bitter cold place?"
…
Luo Chen didn't know why the Ice Castle that the Jian Sect fought so hard for had unknowingly turned towards the Luo Yun Sect.
He only knew the uneasiness that enveloped his heart after arriving at Tianlan Immortal City.
With the Ice Castle badge in hand, it finally disappeared.
"Hey!"
"Now we also have someone to support us."
Luo Chen did not hesitate.
He immediately left the city and went straight to Luo Tianhui.
A meeting was held as Luo Chen arrived.
"Chalcedony Pill, you can start selling it on a large scale!"
A simple sentence.
But it aroused everyone's emotions.
Sima Huiniang asked curiously: "President, have you solved the pressure from the top?"
A snowflake magic weapon appeared in the middle of the hall.
Luo Chen injected spiritual power, and the snowflakes slowly began to spin.
"Ice Castle!"
"Ice Castle!"
The exclamations came from several monks in the hall.
Luo Chen flicked his hand, and the magic weapon fell into Sima Huiniang's hands.
"If you rub this symbol on the flag of Luo Tianhui, you won't have any trouble doing business in the future."
Everyone looked at each other.
Unexpectedly, Luo Chen actually solved this biggest problem in a short period of time.
Ice castle badge!
Doesn't this mean that Luo Tianhui has joined Ice Castle and become its vassal force?
Maybe less formal.
But at least, Luo Tianhui can avoid many difficulties from all aspects in the future business.
Sima Huiniang took a deep breath and said seriously: "I will implement it immediately."
It's not just her who has to keep busy.
The monks at Luotian Huizhan Hall and Jin Hall will also start to get busy.
When it comes to alchemy, the most busy areas are the alchemy hall and the medicine hall.
Then when selling elixirs, it's time for Jintang and Zhantang to exert their strength.
Now, the only thing left to consider is one question.
"President, how much is the price of the Chalcedony Pill?" Gu Caiyi asked.
Luo Chen did not hesitate, "The price of a medium-grade chalcedony pill is forty spiritual stones per bottle. The price of a top-grade chalcedony pill is set at eighty-five yuan per bottle."
Hearing the price, Gu Caiyi almost blurted out.
"So low?"
Not only her, but also the rest of the people in the hall were in disbelief.
You know, usually the price of Chalcedony Pill is 50 for mid-grade and 90 for top-grade.
Now that the war continues, raw material prices are rising.
Instead of following the rising tide, they lowered prices.
this……
Faced with a crowd of people who didn't understand, Luo Chen said calmly: "We need to open the market with low prices and squeeze the market for low-level cultivation pills except Qi Nourishing Pill and Huanglong Pill."
“Once we break in and occupy the market share, we can slowly increase the price.”
"This is a war, and only those who survive can earn spiritual stones."
"understand?"
Price war!
This is a very simple business concept.
But for monks who put their interests first, ceding their interests is more uncomfortable than killing them.
Even if many people know this truth, they are unwilling to lower prices.
Luo Chen naturally didn't want to either.
But he knows that only by occupying enough market share will the benefits be great.
What's more, with a price of forty or eighty-five, can Luo Tianhui really not earn spiritual stones?
not necessarily!
With his rate of elixir formation and cost control, he is far superior to alchemists of the same level.
Therefore, price war is what he is least afraid of.
"Luo Tianhui needs this war!"
"Only by occupying the low-level elixir market refined by those small families and small forces can we talk about the future."
"This war is by no means inferior to the Battle of Xiaohuan Mountain."
"Everyone, cheer up!"
"Winning this war will ensure everyone's future cultivation qualifications!"
A sentence is like a magic sound that hits the ears, but it makes people want to move.
Maybe there were doubts at first.
But Luo Chen made careful decisions along the way and made every decision the right one.
Everyone has already placed great trust in him.
After his explanation, everyone was full of motivation.
"We are not just selling elixirs, we are also fighting a war without smoke."
"Only if you win can you have a future and have sufficient qualifications for practice!"
