Chapter 4: Difficult Choices
The Dan League branch is in the Great Qian Empire, and there are about a few hundred Danyuan Realm monks. In the Dan League, it is far more than that. Luo Tian estimated that the Great Qian Empire only dared to make a move after it wanted to catch up with the Dan League General Alliance in terms of the number of people in the Danyuan Realm!
Thinking of this, Luo Tian couldn't stay any longer. He told Luo Chenfeng that he would see him again in three days. As for now, he needs to tell the news to the Danmeng and let the two masters be more careful.
If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, for tens of thousands of years, the Daqian Empire has always given Dan Meng face, not because they are really willing, but because they don't dare. On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to sleep peacefully!
The Dan League may never have thought of competing with the Daqian royal family for the interests of the empire. But people are like that, you don't have the intention, but he has the intention. Many times, even if you don't hurt others, others think that you will always hurt them. The same is true for monks, and even more so for the royal family, which owns an entire empire.
It seems that the Dan League has long been on their hostile list, and the harmony on the surface is actually harboring evil intentions. The Danmeng is a very old force with a strong sense of justice. Of course, they will not be eyeing the Great Qian Empire, but if a force is too strong, it will make those forces that are not as powerful as him feel threatened.
Luo Tian came to the Dan League and directly found the two masters. Now that they have nothing to do, they refine some pills to help Luo Tianyuanfang. Moreover, these two senior alchemists can be said to have helped refine for free. Basically, all you need is Luo Tian's Yuan Stone to buy the spirit grass.
"Disciple, why are you in the mood to meet the two of us today?" said President Wangchen.
Luo Tian was not verbose, and directly told the two masters of his suspicions. Hearing Luo Tian's words, the two presidents were not surprised. They sued Luo Tian, in fact, these Dan Leagues had known for a long time. But in their opinion, the royal family did not dare to go against the Dan League.
"But Master, the apprentice thinks that since the royal family has such evil intentions, they have to guard against it. Luo Tian said worriedly.
"This shouldn't be, the Dan League existed before the emergence of the Great Qian Empire, and they really did it? In my opinion, it should be that they just want to strengthen themselves and better control the Great Qian Empire. And we will never participate in political affairs next year, so I think it's okay to be a teacher. I just heard Vice President Lin also say.
"Those two masters, in the former Alchemy Courtyard of the royal family, how many Ning Yuan Dan and Breaking Pill can be refined every year?"
"Oh, our Dan Alliance once had an agreement with the royal family, and the spirit grass of the Destruction Pill was divided equally, and the same was true for Ning Yuan Dan. Because every time a relic is discovered, or there is any great treasure, our Danmeng will explore it together with the royal family. President Wangchen said.
"Ah, but what the disciples have discovered, the royal family refines at least 7,000 Ning Yuan Pills and 200 Destruction Pills every year!" Luo Tian thought suspiciously.
"What! It's impossible, we can buy up to 4,000 copies of Ning Yuan Dan's pills every year. As for the spirit grass that broke the Destruction Pill, it could only be found in the depths of the Demon Beast Mountain Range. So there are no more than 200 copies a year. Where did they find so many spirit grasses!" I heard Vice President Lin say in surprise.
"Yes, the apprentice also feels a little strange, it is said that the Dan League should be a place dedicated to alchemy, and the number of refining should be more than that of the royal family. But things turned the other way around, and it didn't feel right. Luo Tian also explained.
"Let's do it, let's listen to your advice, watch out for every move of the royal family, and you should be careful recently, I'm afraid that if they even dare to attack the Danmeng, then the teacher can't protect you." President Wangchen said.
"By the way, since the shape is so grim now, I think your business here is probably not going to be able to keep it. It's better to take advantage of this now, and go directly to our Danmeng headquarters. But since you have noticed some of the actions of the royal family, let the president take you back this time, and stay here for the teacher!"
When Luo Tian heard this, he was a little troubled. His Tianyuanfang finally stabilized down, and if it was closed now, he would really be unwilling. But he also seemed to smell something big about to happen. If you continue to run the business now, it is estimated that it will be difficult to save it.
Therefore, the current Tianyuanfang can definitely be said to be "tasteless food, and it is a pity to abandon it". But Luo Tian didn't know whether to sue Qin Mubai or not, after all, in addition to his own efforts, Qin Mubai had put in a lot of effort. Even for the sake of Tianyuanfang, he did not hesitate to stay away from Anseong-gun to be with him. Luo Tian felt that Qin Mubai's brother had made the right deal.
After he left Danmeng, he walked straight to the shop. Luo Tian rarely went to the Tianyuan Pill Medicine Workshop, and it was usually Qin Mubai and Zhou Yan who were there staring. Going today, Luo Tian wanted to see how much stock there was in the Tianyuan Dan Medicine Factory. In two years, he made a net profit of 50,000 medium-grade yuan stones, and this profit is definitely very rare.
"Steward Qin, the owner is here. When Zhou Yan saw Luo Tian coming, he said.
"Oh, big brother doesn't usually come here, what's wrong today. Qin Mubai thought about it and came to welcome Luotian.
"Brother Qin, are you busy today. Luo Tian said with some sorrow.
"It's okay, big brother, what are you doing here today, I don't see you here on weekdays?"
Luo Tian heard the other party ask, but he didn't say it explicitly. Instead, he took him to the third floor, where only Qin Mubai and Luo Tian could enter. Although Zhou Yan is the shopkeeper, he can't enter it.
When he came to the third floor, he told Qin Mubai what he had just discovered. In other words, he planned to tell Qin Mubai the news. This is not a trivial matter, and it is very likely that before you know it, everyone will die. Therefore, Luo Tiancai was so anxious and wanted to tell Qin Mu Bai Ming about this matter.
Hearing Luo Tian explain the cause and effect of the matter, Qin Mubai was shocked. Although the Qin family is also affiliated with the Great Qian Empire, if the empire goes to war with the Dan League in the future, their Qin family really doesn't know who to help. To put it bluntly, it is nothing more than for the better development of the family, so that he will become the prince of the ruling side of the imperial capital.
"How is this good, do you want to sue my father. And if that happens, we're all on the cusp. Monks like us in the Danyuan Realm are probably cannon fodder. I only heard Qin Mubai say anxiously.
"Brother Qin, don't worry, this matter has just been discovered. Besides, the monks have an extremely long lifespan, and the royal family is probably waiting for the opportunity, not that it may happen now. I guess it will take at least a few decades. Luo Tian said inferredly.
"No, big brother, you don't know about this royal family. Did you ever know back then, how did this imperial family gain control of the Great Qian Empire?" only to hear Qin Mubai ask rhetorically.
Luo Tian shook his head when he heard this, of course he didn't know how the Great Qian Empire was founded. This was at least tens of thousands of years ago, if not longer. And he has never been concerned about these things, and the change of dynasty is not something he is interested in.
However, Qin Mubai told him that the ancestors of the royal family back then were very courageous! The royal family of the present day was originally a prince who dominated one side. But before they could resist the original empire, they revolted. In the end, he was surprised and eliminated the original royal family in one fell swoop.
Therefore, today's royal family is often good at surprises. Often when you still feel impossible, the royal family takes action. When suppressing some of the rebels, the royal family wiped them out with a thunderbolt.
"Alas, in fact, I just want to discuss with you today whether you should continue to run the business. I'm going to leave this place soon and head to the Danmeng headquarters. If we really experience the battle between the two major forces at that time, it is estimated that our Tianyuan Fang will not hide from it. And according to my guess, the first thing to do when the time comes is to target us. Luo Tian sighed and said.
Qin Mubai was also very depressed when he saw Luo Tian's reluctant appearance. It's a shame that a fledgling business is closed like this. However, what Qin Mubai thought of was the future development.
"Big brother, in my opinion, it's better to turn it off. Don't you also have a hidden pill shop that can make Tianyuan Fang go underground. I can still take care of my eldest brother. After you leave, wouldn't it be okay for me to change my appearance and enter another pill shop?" Qin Mubai said after thinking.
Seeing that Qin Mubai spoke first, Luo Tian also thought about it again, this is a good way. In this way, putting all his thoughts on the Dust Wind Pill Workshop, and Luo Tian and Qin Mubai were equivalent to disappearing in front of the eyes of many forces.
At that time, even if the two major forces really fight, it will not affect some small forces. Like the Dust Wind Pill Pharmacy, it is even smaller and can't attract anyone's attention. However, Luo Tian's only worry is that if the royal family goes to Luo Guo to find out their details, it is very likely that they will find out the relationship between Luo Chenfeng and Luo Zhengxi and others.
Although there are very few people who know that he is the boss behind the wind shadow, there is no impermeable wall, so he must not be sloppy. What the Dust Wind Pill Pharmacy has to do is not to earn as many yuan stones, but to lurk quietly in the imperial capital. If Luo Tian leaves, their safety will come first.
After the two discussed, they decided to announce their closure after half a month. They announced to the public that Tianyuanfang was disbanded, and then they would all return to Anseong-gun. As for Zhou Yan's family, Luo Tian will give them a sum of yuan stones, so that they can make a living in the imperial capital.
Therefore, Qin Mubai began to look for a buyer! The shop was purchased by Vice President Lin for more than 100,000 yuan, so Luo Tian planned to sell it and return it to the master later. Even if it is a high-level alchemist, these hundreds of thousands of yuan stones are not a small amount, how can Luo Tian ask for the master's yuan stones.
Hearing that Tianyuanfang, which had a booming business, was going to be sold, the major businesses were a little dumbfounded. Could it be that this Tianyuanfang is just a piece of gold and jade, and it is in the midst of failure? On the surface, it looks quite prosperous, but it has been losing money? Otherwise, everyone really can't figure out why they want to close such a potential business.
And more than a dozen people from Zhou Yan's clan were also stunned when they heard the news. However, Qin Mubai said that he would give their family 10,000 medium-grade yuan stones, and he would also return the mansion to them. As for the survival of the Zhou family in the future, it will fall on Zhou Yan again.
Because the location of the Tian Yuan Dan Medicine Workshop is simply wonderful, many businesses want to buy it. In this way, Qin Mubai had a good idea, that is, bidding. So three days later, the auction of the Tian Yuanfang store pù began.
Because it's just an auction of shops, many people just come to see the excitement. Those who can afford it are the owners of some big businesses. When Vice President Lin bought it, it was 150,000 yuanshi, so Luotian's starting price was set at 150,000 yuanshi.
According to his and Qin Mubai's estimates, after two years of operation, many monks will come to patronize here. Therefore, the starting price is 150,000 yuanshi, which is not expensive. The shop has a price, but the customers are priceless.
Many alchemists come here to sell or buy pills. No matter which firm bids for it, thirty percent of the pill income from the imperial capital will be theirs in the future. It can be said that now their shop pù is worth at least 200,000 yuan stones!
