Don't forget it, Dad! Isn't it enough to kneel down for you?

Chapter 467: Profiteer

Chu Jiaojiao shook her head. "That's not necessary. Master is also very good at refining pills. It doesn't have to be me."

"That's perfect. I'm just asking, if I can be of any help, that's all."

Xiao Meng was not very willing to help.

He said calmly, "That's fine too. One Nascent Soul Pill costs 10,000 high-grade spirit stones. Do you have any?"

Not really.

Her pockets are cleaner than her face now.

But ten thousand spirit stones is a bit too much, but it is indeed worth the price.

Countless cultivators have perished in this calamity. If we can increase our chances of winning and get through it successfully, it would be worth it.

Therefore, Nascent Soul Pills have always been in short supply, and even at auctions, they have been sold for higher prices than this.

After thinking about it, Chu Jiaojiao didn't hesitate and said, "Then you can leave a few for me first, and I will start making money and pay you back when the time comes, okay?"

Hearing this, Xiao Meng became even more unhappy, and he didn't know why he was unhappy.

Anyway, it's right that you don't want to hear this.

His voice became even colder: "Okay, I'll count it as interest and give you an extra hundred high-grade spirit stones a day."

Chu Jiaojiao's eyes widened immediately, "You are a loan shark."

Xiao Meng thought about it, understood what he meant, and nodded, "Yes."

He looked calm, without the slightest hint of guilt, "If you think it's expensive, you don't have to buy it."

"Buy, buy, buy." Chu Jiaojiao said repeatedly, "I can buy it."

Then she noticed that his face looked even worse.

what happened?

Chu Jiaojiao was confused. She didn't even think he was a profiteer, so why did he get angry? Was that appropriate?

Xiao Meng curled his lips and sneered, "You are really nice to them."

At this moment, Chu Jiaojiao suddenly realized that she was jealous.

She smiled and said, "I'm also good to Fifth Brother. I'll buy you anything you want."

Xiao Meng glanced at her and asked, "Did they say they wanted the Nascent Soul Pill?"

Chu Jiaojiao shook her head, "No."

"Even if they don't tell you, you know they want the Nascent Soul Pill. Do I have to tell you what I want?"

Chu Jiaojiao: “…”

What kind of logic is this?

Didn't she just think of it by chance? Besides, considering their relationship in this life, he had just met her, not even a day. He asked her to have a tacit understanding with him. Wasn't that a bit too much to ask?

She was not very polite to him and used his Medicine King Cauldron when they just met. She didn't expect that he would be really rude to her.

"What? Do you think I'm unreasonable?" Xiao Meng asked.

Chu Jiaojiao shook her head, "How could that be?"

Xiao Meng said, "I think it's really unreasonable."

He still knows.

Chu Jiaojiao secretly complained in her heart, and Xiao Meng continued: "So what."

Chu Jiaojiao: “…”

Finally found someone more unreasonable than her!

Chu Jiaojiao looked at him with admiration and gave him a thumbs up, "Fifth Brother, you are amazing."

When it comes to shamelessness and unreasonableness, he wins!

She resigned herself to defeat.

Xiao Meng glanced at her and asked, "Mocking me?"

Chu Jiaojiao shook her head repeatedly, "No, no, no, it's a sincere compliment."

It would be weird to believe her.

Xiao Meng didn't care. He could do it, so he wasn't afraid of what she said.

Chu Jiaojiao secretly groaned in her heart. No wonder some people called Fifth Brother a weird doctor before. He did things in an unexpected way!

Why didn't I realize this side of him before?

"What are you mumbling about?" Xiao Meng saw that she was mumbling and couldn't hear what she said clearly, so he didn't waste time on himself and asked directly.

Chu Jiaojiao said, "I'm praising you for your business skills."

Ah.

Xiao Meng glanced at her and said, "If you don't want to, you can also find the medicine and refine it yourself. That way you don't have to beg me."

How could she do that?

Several of the ingredients in the Yuanying Pill are rare and precious medicinal materials that are naturally valuable. With her current abilities, she simply cannot obtain them.

If I really have the luck to get it, I don’t know when it will be. I guess my eldest brother and the others would have already formed their elixir.

Chu Jiaojiao smiled and complimented him, "How can the medicine I refine compare to Fifth Senior Brother's? I still have to rely on you."

"Fifth Brother, watch your step."

However, the more she servile she was, the more unhappy Xiao Meng became.

For the sake of her senior brothers, she is willing to risk everything.

If Chu Jiaojiao knew what he was thinking, she would really make a scene.

Why is it that nothing she does is right?

They are really hard to please in this life!

With Xiao Meng there, the two of them quickly reached the depths of the jungle.

Xiao Meng has already collected all the other medicines, and now the only one missing is the Wentian Lotus.

The Chinese lotus grows on cliffs and blooms only once every thousand years. This year is the day when it matures.

This is also the reason why Yuanying Pill is so precious. It is difficult to collect all the medicinal materials.

The right time and place are indispensable.

However, when they arrived, quite a few people were already there.

Moreover, the people who came were even more powerful than the group that had previously snatched the little phoenix.

Chu Jiaojiao said, "Fifth Senior Brother, there are so many people watching us."

Xiao Meng said "hmm", his expression remained the same.

Chu Jiaojiao asked curiously, "Fifth Senior Brother, are you sure you can get it? Will it be snatched away by someone else?"

"Just take it away if you want." Xiao Meng didn't care. "Even if you take it away, it will eventually be mine."

"why?"

"Because the one I refine has the best effect."

Even if there are other pharmacists who can refine Nascent Soul Pills, none of them are as good as his.

What they refine can increase the chance of winning by 30%, and he can increase it by 50%.

Adding to the original 20% probability, with the Nascent Soul Pill he made, it can almost be considered a sure win.

It’s like adding a few dozen points to the college entrance examination score. If you still can’t get into university, it would be a bit unreasonable.

Chu Jiaojiao understood and said regretfully, "It's a pity that one Heavenly Questioning Lotus can only make one Nascent Soul Pill."

"Who said that?" Xiao Meng asked back.

Chu Jiaojiao was stunned. Isn’t this something everyone knows?

For a high-level elixir like this, it is already a rare achievement to succeed.

The greater the difficulty, the smaller the final product.

However, Fifth Brother is not an ordinary person, so it is understandable that he has more finished products.

She remembered that when she was working in Yaowang Sect, she had heard that the sect's eldest disciple had refined three Nascent Soul Pills at once, and each one was of heaven grade. It caused quite a sensation at the time.

But at that time she didn't know that the senior disciple was him.

Chu Jiaojiao said: "Three at a time, that's pretty impressive."

Finally, Xiao Meng said, "Who said three at a time?"

Chu Jiaojiao was stunned again, "How many at a time? Four?"

As expected, he is the fifth senior brother.

Xiao Meng said calmly: "Ten at a time."

"How much?!" Chu Jiaojiao widened her eyes and said in disbelief.

Xiao Meng looked at her with a hint of disgust, seeing that she seemed naive.

He repeated good-naturedly, "Ten."

Chu Jiaojiao was confused. "Then why did I hear that you could only successfully refine three at a time?"

Xiao Meng said confidently, "Then you have to give me some hard work pay."

Chu Jiaojiao: “…”
