At first, the old manager didn't believe Leo's words and even thought that Leo was trying to scam him; however, after wasting an entire pill in the name of research along with one hour, the old manager's appraisal matched Leo's words.He was surprised to see a pill with such effects exists in Silvermoon City and without any hesitation, the old manager agreed to take 30 of these special pills from Leo.
"You just have to give me 29 pills as I have wasted one pill in the name of research."
For the old man, a single pill won't affect him much because he cared that Leo could sell more of these pills to him.
The old manager had finally realized that the cultivator in front of him was not a normal one and could be considered a special one.
With these pills that have the same effect as the low-level Foundation Establishment Pills, he could rake in huge profits and he had already thought of how he should do that to maximize his profits from the pills.
"So, you are giving me 10 high-level Storage Rings for 30 of these pills?"
Taking out 29 top-level Qi-refinement Pills, Leo asked the old man with a slight smile on his face.
"Yes."
The old man manager nodded his head and agreed.
"Thank you."
Soon, the transaction was completed between Leo and the old manager with both parties being satisfied with one another.
"Sir, if you plan to sell more and more of your pills to me, I can request a Gold Membership Card from the headquarters and give it to you when you come here to sell your pills."
The old manager had a lot of experience in managing the store as he hurriedly found an opportunity and baited Leo with the Gold Membership card.
A low-level Foundation Establishment Pill was not sold in the regular pattern; instead, those pills will be auctioned off at regular intervals to raise the price of the pill.
The minimum bid for the pill started at 12000 low-level spirit stones and in the lowest case, the price would reach 20000 low-level spirit stones and there were even cases where it reached 25000 low-level spirit stones.
So, the old manager was very happy as he would be getting huge profits with the 29 pills in his hands.
Therefore, the old manager thought about it and decided to bait him with the Gold Membership Card.
"Hm….sure."
Leo wanted to agree to it hurriedly without wasting any time; however, he suppressed his excitement and after acting to think for a while, Leo nodded his head in agreement.
The Silver Membership Card gives a cultivator a 10 percent discount on all the items they will be buying from the Infinite Treasures Pavilion in the entire world. Of course, in the branch where they got the Membership Card, they would get more discounts just like how Leo got just now.
As for the Gold Membership Card, it would give the cultivator a discount of 30 percent which was quite high and Leo thought he could make good use of that card.
"Great."
Seeing that the cultivator agreed, the old manager became excited as he informed me, "Sir, your Gold Membership Card will be ready within a week. You can come and take it."
"Of course, if you want to buy more, you can still get the 30 percent discount on all the items in this store."
The old manager wanted Leo to buy more items in the store to increase his sales target for the month.
"Then, I want to buy ingredients for some rank 2 pills."
Since he was getting a discount of 30 percent, Leo decided to buy more items and as for the payment, he decided to use another 10 top-level Qi-refinement Pills.
As for the spirit stones he had with him, Leo didn't have any plans to use them as he was keeping them for merging.
Leo had gained the pill formulas for various rank 2 pills and decided to refine some easiest ones. Also, he now has 11 lunar pills and wanted to refine the Foundation Establishment Pills. So, he bought the other necessary ingredients to refine it.
Of course, he bought only 11 sets of ingredients because after refining various rank 1 and rank 2 pills, Leo was fully confident in his refining skills.
As for the rank 2 Life Essence Pill, he still needs to get his hands on the main ingredient and after asking around, he learned it won't be available in the store.
Soon, Leo spent 10 top-level Qi-refinement Pills worth around 100000 low-level spirit stones and bought the ingredients for the following rank 2 pills. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the NʘvᴇlFirᴇ.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.
1) Foundation Establishment Pills x 11, (Except for the Lunar Pill).
2) Barrier Breakthrough Pills x 100, original price 60000 low-level spirit stones but after discount, Leo only paid 42000 low-level spirit stones.
3) Foundation Strengthening Pills x 100. The price is the same as the above pills.
Even though he only bought 11 sets of Foundation Establishment Pills without the Lunar Pill, it still cost him 16000 low-level spirits and from this, one could tell why the Foundation Establishment Pills were so costly.
"Sir, you know how to refine the Barrier Breakthrough Pills and the Foundation Strengthening Pills?"
After seeing what sets of ingredients Leo bought, the old manager became excited and asked about it.
The pills are rare in Silvermoon City and the surrounding cities because only a few alchemists knew how to refine them and even their success rate was not good.
Since the success rate was low, the alchemist would buy more sets of ingredients.
That's the reason why the Infinite Treasures Pavilion has huge quantities of ingredients for these pills.
"I can; however, the success rate is not good."
As for Leo, he was modest as he didn't want to say that he had a success rate of 100 percent because he had gained the pill recipe and the experience of refining these pills from the Heavens.
Those who got enlightenment would be perfect in their profession.
"Sir, I hope you can sell these pills to me. Of course, I will give you a good price."
The old manager felt like he had found another good alchemist that would help him make huge profits.
On the other hand, Leo nodded his head with a slight smile on his face under his mask.
"Also, do you have any low-level Moon Stones?"
After thinking for a moment, Leo asked about the low-level Moon Stones.
Even though he knew it was hard for him to get his hands on the moon stones, Leo still wanted to give it a try.
Since the old manager seemed to have huge experience in managing the business, he must have had some good connections.
Therefore, he indirectly asked whether the old manager had any routes he could get the low-level Moon Stones.
'Sir, if it was anyone else, I would not bother to answer; however, since it is you, I will try to get some moon stones for you.'
The old manager walked close to Leo and said in a low voice before informing, 'However, it would cost so much.'
"You have a way?"
As for Leo, he became excited; however, he controlled his excitement and asked, 'Can you tell me how much it cost?'
'At least 100000 low-level spirit stones for a single low-level moon stone and I can't guarantee the quantity. There might be 100 of them or I might get only one. If you are sure about it, you need to pay at least one million low-level spirit stones in advance.'
The old manager thought about it and said, 'Of course, the payment will be adjusted with the number of moon stones I get my hands on. Also, it will take at least 7 seven and a maximum of 15 days.'
'Very costly.'
Leo was shocked when he heard the price and when he thought about how he could get the low-level moon stones just from the fragments, he could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
However, Leo needs to buy the low-level moon stones because to upgrade his talent [Fundamental Merge], he needed one mid-level moon stone along with 100 low-level moon stones.
As for the low-level moon stones, Leo could merge them from the fragments of the moon stones.
'As you already know, I don't have many spirit stones with me; however, I will come back in a week with 50 mid-level Foundation Establishment Pills. What do you say?'
After thinking for a moment, Leo said his condition in a low voice, making the old man thoroughly shocked.
'Swoosh'
At the same time, Leo used his talent [Quasi Divine Presence] and released Gold Core Realm Cultivator's pressure, giving the old manager another shock.
'Sir…sir…I will take care of this transaction personally and make sure to bring as many low-level moon stones as possible.'
The cultivation pressure only stayed for a few moments; however, it was enough for the old manager to believe that Leo was Golden Core Realm Cultivator.
Hence, he said that he could take care of the transaction.
'So, the Golden Core Realm Cultivator that appeared in the Black Market was none other than him.'
As a peak foundation establishment realm cultivator and the manager of the Infinite Treasures Pavilion, the old manager had many ears and eyes all over the city.
So, he knew about the appearance of the Golden Core Realm Cultivator and he had already connected that cultivator to his branch.
Thinking about that made the old manager excited.
"I will come back in a week again. Also, I don't want to be disturbed when I come here again with the unnecessary crowd."
