The first batch of pretenders who successfully arrived in North Park City successfully pried open the way to survival, and they began to buy food and clothing after the potions were sold.

The news that there is a new pharmacy located here in North Park City has spread far and wide, and there are still many rich nobles in North Park City, maybe the price of 420 star coins is sky-high for ordinary people, but for nobles, this is not an unacceptable price.

After all, Li Xiang's alchemy room is unique here, and there used to be a pharmacist union here, but since the beginning of the Alien Beast War, the pharmacist union here has gone bankrupt, because the pharmacist union and the federation have a war agreement, and once a war breaks out, the pharmacist union must contribute potions for free.

So, isn't it normal to go bankrupt?

So, since then, there has been no pharmacist's union, let alone a pharmacy.

The annual war of alien beasts is exchanged for people's lives, the science and technology of the Federation is not developed, and in this remote area, it is impossible to enjoy the support of the Federation, so the black-hearted Marles family will not care about the life and death of the lower cities, and give you the right to be the city lord, what more do you want?

Don't look at what the Marles family was born into, a group of robbers you ask them for money? How naïve you are.

The decline of this city is not unreasonable, after all, under the alien beast war, the Marles family will not use more energy and economy to protect them, and the little beast core they hand in every year is not enough for them to repair the mecha.

The reason why the city lord hurriedly came to the door was not because he hoped to get the sympathy of the people behind the alchemy room?

He had been crying with Karen for a long time in the alchemy room, and Karen was also in a dilemma, after all, they had many purposes, and the star coin was the most important, but he couldn't offend the city lord in front of him.

"Lord of the city, I can only contact the boss for you, after all, we also need star coins, the boss's family is big, and there are many people who want to eat, right?" Karen said it very tactfully, but the city lord didn't care, as a pharmacist, he still lacked that money to support some mercenaries?

But what Cullen said was true, after all, Li Xiang did have to feed a full 100,000 people before he left this planet.

After communicating with Li Xiang, Karen felt that it could be deducted in a barter way, using firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, clothes, and metal objects, after all, Li Xiang is so bad that these things are not these?

When Karen heard this, it was really like this, he sold the potions, and he had to buy food and daily necessities, why not compromise and let the city lord directly use these materials to deduct? In this way, he will be sold a favor and will be able to take root here for a long time.

The next morning, Karen personally went to the city lord's mansion, found the city lord, and explained the matter to him, the metal items city lord had nothing to do, but there was no problem with food and daily necessities.

On the same day, Karen was invited to a banquet, so that he saw what a banquet was for the first time, although he was calm and calm on the surface, but Karen was panicked in his heart, and tried not to show his feet at the banquet.

There were a lot of people who came to the banquet, and their purpose was very clear, and the metal items that the city lord couldn't handle, for these nobles who were afraid of death, they had channels.

Potions, especially powerful potions, are in demand in the surrounding Leh cities, and North Park City may have very few metal items, which are strategic materials, but there are many other cities, after all, there are not many factories that produce mecha in that city?

It was this banquet that brought a major turning point in Karen's life, as he first realized that connections could be expanded at the wine table, and for the first time, he realized how important connections were.

Li Xiang was also a little surprised by Karen's growth, especially when Li Xiang learned that Karen had advertised for him, saying that there were other kinds of potions for sale, those nobles were eager to fly over and kneel and lick Li Xiang himself.

It was also at this time that Li Xiang realized how noble the status of the pharmacist was, and his own crazy plan suddenly wavered a little at this moment, after all, it was much safer to drive by interests than to go out in person.

The grudge entanglement between the Males family and him can completely eat away at the foundation of the Males family little by little, but it is too slow to do so, and it can't be put on the table, on this planet, it may be able to make the Males family vomit blood, but it can't affect their status in the Condor Federation.

There is a good saying, no matter how bells and whistles you are, it is not as good as a punch given to you by others, and in the era of strength, background is equally important.

Now Li Xiang is just an ant, an ant who knows how capable he is, so he will continue to carry out that crazy plan and let the entire Condor Federation know about him.

With fame, strength, and status to attract more investors, the Marles family is not alone, he also has opponents and enemies.

The enemy of the enemy is the friend, Li Xiang alone can't shake the elephant of Males, but the ants bite the elephant to death, he needs a lot of hostility and even hatred of the friends of the Males family.

These people who received Li Xiang's favor from the ice cave are just his pawns, a little favor will make them sell their lives, Li Xiang doesn't feel that he is excessive, is he spending money to support them to eat dry rice?

Even Karen himself was willingly driven by Li Xiang, not for anything else. Just for the grace of dripping water, the spring reciprocates.

People are sometimes very pure, sometimes they are also very complicated, the grasp of people's hearts Li Xiang is not at home yet, he has just started, how to use 100,000 chess pieces to achieve the result he wants, the price Li wants to pay Karen They are embarrassed to mention it themselves.

The amount of potions that made people's scalps tingle alone made them willing to do things for him, not to mention that some of the potions that Li wanted to sell were used to feed them?

Li Xiang's boss is indeed too good to them, although it is said that there is a purpose, but this purpose does not have any conflict of interest with them, and it is logical that they are willing to become Li Xiang's hand to stir up this stormy world.

The influence of the North Park City Apothecary spread quickly after this banquet, and it didn't take long for representatives from other cities who were also plagued by the Alien Beast War to arrive.

It was only at this time that Karen realized how wise Li Xiang's decision was (in fact, it was by mistake, Li Xiang didn't know about the Alien Beast War at all), and just asking Karen and Li Xiang to discuss the invitation to open a branch opened his eyes, not to mention the mountain of gifts.
