The Sovereign Of The Three Realms

Chapter 43: Three Types of Pill Medicine

The plan must be implemented immediately. Jiang Chen had one stubborn insistence: that the pill distiller must be Qiao Baishi himself.

Because, until now, Jiang Chen had not understood much about the Hall of Healing. He only trusted Qiao Baishi. Relatively speaking, Qiao Baishi was an intelligent man, and had morals and loyalty.

Therefore, when it came to the core of the refining operation, Jiang Chen was only willing to let Qiao Baishi participate, and there were no other pill refiners in the Healing Hall.

Qiao Baishi earnestly expected such a development.

Even if Jiang Chen did not say anything, Qiao Baishi would not give up such a good opportunity to others. Even if Jiang Chen would not let him handle all the important content.

However, if he, Qiao Baishi, was involved, then it meant that he controlled the right to speak within the Hall.

This was undoubtedly a great help for Qiao Baishi to control the bigger picture in the future.

As long as he and Jiang Chen had this layer of cooperation, how could others within the Hall damage his status as a successor?

In that case, it would be perfectly justified for Lord Hallmaster to cultivate it in the future and give a position to him.

After all, opposing Qiao Baishi would be akin to cutting off the core competences of the Hall of Healing.

Qiao Baishi was very grateful. He felt that he had made a very wise decision that day. If not for the fact that he sold that Dragon Bone Sun Grass to Jiang Chen against all odds, then the current situation in the capital would likely look very different.

And he, Qiao Baishi, would still work hard inside the Hall with his tail tucked between his legs.

And now, if he managed to run all of these things, and get rid of their competitor the King Garden Pill in a single blow, then his strength, charisma, and leadership ability, would spontaneously skyrocket.

This way, his position within the Hall of Healing would stabilize without a doubt and he would receive a lot of support.

After all, everyone wanted to see a Hallmaster Lord who could bring income and honor to the Hall of healing.

Suppressing the Pill King Garden firmly would be an incredible achievement that Hallmaster Song Tianxing had fought for, but it had never been achieved!

Three days later, the Heavenly Karma Pill was successfully produced. The flames had spewed out eight complete pills. Three of them were top rank, four middle rank, and one bottom rank.

When Qiao Baishi sensed the concentrated medicinal strength of the “Pil Heavenly Karma”, his eyes glazed over as he looked at the flawless exterior that looked like it had been shaped by nature itself, and the smell is enough to make the blood boil and surge.

He finally believed that the Heavenly Karma Pill was indeed true.

He has been carrying too much pressure in the past few days. As time passed and the Heavenly Karma Pill continued to fail to appear, some skepticism and voices of doubt were also heard from within the Hall of Healing. They suspected that they had been played by Jiang Chen this time.

And now that the Heavenly Karma Pill that had captivated the heart was finally in front of Qiao Baishi, how could he not wash his face with tears?

A pill distiller felt the greatest achievement and was therefore most touched at the moment the fire was extinguished to reveal a fully formed pill.

Qiao Baishi was no exception, the meaning attached to this Heavenly Karma Pill was too much and too heavy!

It was as if Qiao Baishi had freed himself from all the heavy burden on his shoulders at that moment.

The qi filling pills were also produced after two days. When Qiao Baishi asked for the name of this pill, Jiang Chen hid his real name and called it “Pil Lungas” Sea.

In the past two days, Jiang Chen made some changes to the prescription of the mind tranquilizer and named it “One Buddha” Powder.

This One Buddha Powder need not be refined. It only required a few spirit ingredients to be destroyed, and went through a few more steps, before becoming medicine.

The lack of a purification step means the absence of material losses and the ability to pass expensive refining steps.

This would naturally reduce the cost to one-tenth of an ordinary pill medicine.

After all, eight or nine out of ten pills were lost in the refining process. From sufficient ingredients to a hundred pills, only ten or twenty pills could be successfully refined in the end.

A highly skilled distiller might be able to purify twenty or thirty pills, but that was no guarantee that it would always happen.

Qiao Baishi had barely slept for the past six days, but he was still very strong. He had the vitality of a dragon and the ferocity of a tiger. It made one suspect that he would not say that he was tired, even if he engaged in a fierce battle for another two months.

Indeed, Qiao Baishi's professional passion had completely immersed himself into the business.

The shock Jiang Chen had brought to him over the past six days was simply too great. Although he was the one responsible for completely refining pills, Jiang Chen was the one who controlled the operations and core recipes.

Qiao Baishi had no complaints about this arrangement, this was also what was written in the contract. It was unrealistic to ask Jiang Chen to fully tell him all the details regarding the core surgery and pill details.

Six dream-like and fruitful days have passed.

Gazing at the pill bottle piling up in front of him, Qiao Baishi still felt like he was dreaming. The feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction he had received during the past six days of the profession as a pill refinement was something he had not experienced in his life until now.

And this was all thanks to the young man in front of him.

At that moment, the feeling of seeing a tall mountain grew within Qiao Baishi as he looked at Jiang Chen.

Qiao Baishi patted his chest. “Young Duke Jiang, I never shot my mouth. Just look at our operation this time. With the help of such a heavenly pill and the foundation of my Hall's network and distribution channel, if we are unable to completely defeat the King Garden Pill, then we are truly unworthy of our reputation. ”

Jiang Chen was satisfied with Qiao Baishi's statement and smiled faintly. “That is, the Hall will not miss the pill medicine exhibition that will take place in the market three days from now?”

“Haha, of course we will not miss it. Pill King Garden is acting with a high profile, if our Hall of Healing has no response, wouldn't it slightly disappoint our reputation as the number one heavyweight spirit medicine in the kingdom?” Qiao Baishi was very excited.

“Remember to tell me to go watch the show. I don't want to miss such an exciting show.”

“Young Duke Jiang is of course the first honored guest we will invite.” Qiao Baishi smiled.

“Oh right, remember to send an invitation to Princess Gouyu when the time comes. There is a portion of One Buddha Powder reserved for Princess Gouyu.” Jiang Chen happened to say.

“Oh? Princess Gouyu also has a portion?” Qiao Baishi was silent for a moment and immediately smiled. “Then we have to prepare a thank you gift for Princess Gouyu.”

Jiang Chen laughed out loud and thought, ‘that woman Gouyu may not want money ..’ But given that the Hall of Healing is giving gifts, the, they would probably be too embarrassed to give anything under one or two million silvers.

After spending a full six days in the Healing Hall, when he returned to the manor, his father Jiang Feng still remained behind closed doors. Jiang Chen knew that his father's closed-door training this time could last between one month to three or four months.

With his father's dao-holic martial inclination, he probably wouldn't come out before he broke through the ten true qi meridians.

Perhaps, the day his father opened his door, was when the first true qi master appeared in Jiang Han's house!

Since Jiang Chen had already given his orders before he went to the Healing Hall, everything was still relatively calm. The panic did not occur just because Jiang Chen had not appeared for some time.

“Jiang Fu, what happened outside during this time?”

Jiang Fu stood respectfully and respectfully in front of Jiang Chen. As he faced the young duke, Jiang Fu had uprooted the despicable and insulting intent he held in the past.

You should give it to him, Jiang Chen's appearance during this crucial time had won the hearts of the servants in the noble house.

“Young duke, everything has been more or less quiet the last few days. Rumors had been circulating in the outside world about the duke being poisoned, but no big steps had been made. There is a saying that is most popular in the outside world today, saying that the duke has been a victim, but we have not announced it due to some pressure.”.

Jiang Fu spoke by stopping the explosion when he spoke of this. After all, the servants were not too sure whether the duke of Jiang Han was indeed still alive.

“No need to pay attention to these rumors.” Jiang Chen was naturally most aware of his father's current situation.

“Did anyone come to find me over the past few days?” Jiang Chen asked another question.

“Yes, duke of Jinshan and duke of Hubing have passed, and their two young dukes.”

The Duke of Jinshan was the fat house of Xuan, and the rank of a Hubing duke was the home of Hubing Yue. This friendship with the nobility had returned for generations, and it was perfectly normal for them to visit after hearing that something had happened to Jiang Feng.

“Did anyone else pass by?”

“Ya, Princess Gouyu has also come.” Jiang Fu's tone of voice became a little strange when he talked about this. “And, Princess Gouyu has passed, every day and left a message.”

“What message? What are you talking about? Speak honestly.”

Jiang Fu said with an awkward smile, “Princess Gouyu said whenever the young duke returned was the time when he had to go to the palace to meet him. She seemed to say that Princess Zhiruo missed you.”

Jiang Chen laughed involuntarily. “This girl, if you miss me then say you miss me, why use Zhiruo girl as an excuse? It seems you are not a thin-skinned girl. ”

Jiang Fu was tongue-tied and dumbfounded. He had been gobsmacked by Jiang Chen. The two princesses of the kingdom have become “a girl” and “a girl” in the mouth of the young duke.

The young duke from his family was completely unwilling to let everything happen until he said words that shocked everyone.

“Alright, then I should go play in the palace. Uncle Ying, I'm afraid you should accompany me. Given how things were in the capital, Jiang Chen did not dare to be careless.

“Ya.” As the guard leader of the Jiang family, protecting his master was Jiang Ying's duty. He had scolded himself continuously for not protecting the previous duke enough, and found no chance to redeem himself. Now that he had received an order from the young duke, he naturally had to be determined to carry it out. Even if he sacrificed his life, he had to ensure the young duke's safety.

Princess Gouyu had indeed gone to Jiang Han's house every day for the past few days. The feeling is quite complicated. He did not know whether Jiang Chen had deliberately avoided him or simply did not want to see him at all. Or did Jiang Chen hold a grudge against the royal family because of what had happened to Jiang Feng?

Princess Gouyu had always been a loner and pursued martial dao training, she very rarely paid attention to the feelings of others.

But somehow, that lazy youth – poison-tongued youth that – has left a deep imprint in his consciousness, like a brand.

Even if he deliberately avoided thoughts about her, his lazy composure and smiling-looking expression, but not at the same time, it would appear in his mind when it was late at night and there was no one around.

When someone came to report that young duke Jiang had come to visit, Princess Gouyu suddenly got up, but then seemed to immediately feel that her reaction was somewhat exaggerated.

He took a moment to calm himself down, and then walked out.

Jiang Chen stood beside the fake mountain outside Gouyu's room, watching the water trickle down on the artificial mountain. He was completely immersed in contemplation at that moment.
