Chi Shuyan was still quite serious when it came to discussing terms. She deliberated over what she had come up with before she spoke. Of course, she didn’t ask for too much. She only had one requirement, which was none other than the medicinal herbs. The other party would provide the herbs she needed unconditionally, and she would provide medicinal pills to a certain extent.

Jing Hengran was also very shrewd, and asked about the pill supply.

Chi Shuyan said that her success rate was a bit low. There might only be one pill from every batch of herbs, or even less. In actual fact, her success rate was very high. As long as it wasn’t too difficult a pill to make, she would usually produce eight pills in every batch.

However, she was well aware of how rare alchemists and medicinal pills were in this world. She felt that if the other party learned that she could produce eight pills with one batch of herbs, and even supreme-level pills, the heir of the Jing family and the Jing family would either force her to join the Jing family at any cost to squeeze all the value out of her, or cooperate with other ancient martial families to send her off to be dissected, and even target her white jade.

Chi Shuyan was deeply familiar with the saying that a person’s success or gift was their downfall.

So, she hid the truth and said that her success rate was very low. She probed to see if she could get three batches of herbs for every pill she produced.

Chi Shuyan still felt a little guilty when she said this. She looked carefully at the man’s face. Seeing that he didn’t speak, Chi Shuyan thought that he had some objections. “Not possible?”

But what she said just now had just been to feel out the base price. It didn’t matter if the other party wanted to negotiate with her. The very least she would accept was a set of herbs for every medicinal pill.

Seeing that the other party didn’t speak, Chi Shuyan could only change her words. “Two batches of herbs for one pill?”

Jing Hengran’s eyebrows twitched when he heard this, and he looked at the young lady in front of him with a deep and complicated gaze.

Speaking of which, it wasn’t that he had objections earlier, but that he had been astonished. If the young lady in front of him could provide him with one pill in exchange for three batches of medicinal herbs, that was already quite shocking.

He was about to reply, but who would have thought that the young lady in front of him would change it to two batches of medicinal herbs for a pill?

Of course, he had to confirm if this included high-grade pills. Elementary pills were easy to refine, but higher-grade pills, such as the level 3 Energy Recovery Pill, were very rare in the Jing family.

Even the most renowned alchemist in the Jing family couldn’t produce one pill out of three batches of herbs, let alone two. It was normal to waste seven or eight batches from time to time.

Thinking this, Jing Hengran looked deeply at the young lady in front of him again and suddenly said, “Miss Chi, I think we both need to be sincere, right?”

He wanted to see what this young lady in front of him might do.

Chi Shuyan didn’t know that she had changed her words too quickly, making the other party want to probe her background. She didn’t hear the implication in his words, and only thought that he was dissatisfied. She gritted her teeth and said, “One batch of medicinal herbs for one pill! If Young Master Jing is still dissatisfied, I’m afraid we won’t be able to continue with this deal.”

A batch of medicinal herbs for each pill was her absolute bottom line. If the other party wasn’t willing, she couldn’t be bothered to go through the trouble. It would just be a pity about those herbs.

When Chi Shuyan said that, Jing Hengran’s face didn’t change, but his heart pounded with shock. He was so excited and dumbstruck that his mind even went blank and he felt dizzy for a moment.

He was very excited in his heart, but he was also afraid that the medicinal pills that the other party had specified were only elementary pills. If they were just elementary pills, it wouldn’t mean much no matter how many she refined. However, he also felt that it wasn’t likely that they would be relatively high-grade medicinal pills.

He suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked calmly, “Miss Chi, are you talking about elementary or higher-grade medicinal pills?”

Chi Shuyan narrowed her eyes and probed, “What level do you think is considered a higher-grade pill?”

Jing Hengran stared at her and wanted to blurt out, “Level 3.” In the end, he spat out, “Under level 4!”

Chi Shuyan heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this. Pills below level 4 were level 3, but she wasn’t a fool. For one thing, she hadn’t come into contact with level 4 pills yet. Moreover, the true level 4 pills in the cultivation world were far more effective than level 4 pills on Earth. Even if she could refine level 4 pills, it was best not to stupidly take them out.

Thinking this, Chi Shuyan nodded. “Naturally, it will include level 3 medicinal pills! In other words, as long as your Jing family provides me with the herbs, I’ll provide medicinal pills that are level 3 or lower. How about that?”

Almost as soon as Chi Shuyan finished speaking, Jing Hengran’s body trembled with excitement. His hands shook and he almost dropped his teacup. There was a wave of shock and pleasant surprise in his eyes.

He really didn’t expect such an unexpected surprise in today’s negotiation. The young lady in front of him had agreed to provide a level 3 medicinal pill for every batch of medicinal herbs she received. If he hadn’t seen the level 3 Energy Recovery Pills that she had put up for auction before, he might really have thought that she was playing him!

Jing Hengran felt that he had to reevaluate the value and success rate of the young lady in front of him.

How dare this young lady say that her success rate was low?

Did she know what it meant to have a low success rate?

Take the level 3 Energy Recovery Pill, for example. Even the most famous and formidable alchemist in the Jing family couldn’t refine a level 3 pill with just one batch of herbs.

In particular, when he heard the young lady’s confident words, Jing Hengran couldn’t help but take a few more looks at her. If these medicinal pills were really refined by the young lady in front of him, and she had such a high success rate in refining high-grade medicinal pills, then she was definitely worth roping into the Jing family at all costs.

He immediately agreed, afraid that the other party would go back on her word. He regretted even more not bringing a contract along with him. He would only be able to relax after she signed the contract!

After the other party immediately agreed, Chi Shuyan’s heart thumped and she didn’t react. Not long after, she felt that something wasn’t right, and that she had lost out.

She had inherited a lot of pill formulas from the white jade. Because of her outstanding talent in alchemy, Chi Shuyan had never found it difficult to refine pills. It was also because she had never seen other alchemists refine pills that she didn’t know what their success rate was like on Earth. In her previous life, she had been a Celestial Master and had been focused on revenge, so her social circle had been very small. She had never even seen a real alchemist. She had only heard some things from her teacher, but that had been common knowledge.

For example, medicinal pills were very useful and rare, and alchemists were also very rare. Also, the success rate of alchemists was a bit low, but Chi Shuyan didn’t know how low it was.

So, after her rebirth, she really didn’t know much about alchemists on Earth, nor did she know much about their success rate. She thought that a success rate of one pill for every batch of herbs was already very low. Who would have thought that this success rate was probably quite high for other people?

Thinking this, Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but want to vomit blood when she looked at the sly man in front of her; he truly was the heir of the Jing family.

Chi Shuyan really regretted it. She wished she could go back to when she had first proposed three batches of medicinal herbs for every pill. If she had insisted at that time, he would probably have agreed.

But it was useless to regret it now. Chi Shuyan faced reality, but looked a bit listless.

Seeing the obviously wan expression of the young lady in front of him, Jing Hengran suddenly couldn’t help but want to laugh. He also felt that she was really interesting. In addition, she had very beautiful and outstanding looks. Jing Hengran found her pleasing to the eye no matter how he looked at her, and his gaze was very gentle and soft.

Jing Hengran wasn’t smug about this huge windfall. After all, they had yet to sign a contract. He was still a little worried that the young lady in front of him would go back on her word, so he was very generous in other ways. For example, he gave her a 20% discount card for the Jing Auction House. This was the largest discount card; generally, only members of the Jing family had it.

In addition, Jing Hengran had brought with him tea leaves which contained spiritual energy as a greeting gift, and told Chi Shuyan to accept them. Finally, he promised that she could go to the Jing Auction House to choose three rare and old herbs.

This last promise was no small matter.

Chi Shuyan found the man surnamed Jing in front of her much more pleasing to the eye, and no longer fussed over the fact that she had suffered a loss. It might be a blessing to lose out occasionally. Chi Shuyan could only comfort herself this way.
