Daqin: A buff of incredible comprehension
Chapter 52: Restoring the old life
"Haha, this is human nature. Speculators love to do this." "Sir, do you have any good solutions? Please advise."
"Do you have enough herbs to make pills?"
"According to my estimate, it can last for more than one and a half months."
"Then we can suspend the purchase of medicinal herbs first. This will catch those speculators off guard. When their inventory can't be sold, they'll have to lower the price. Then we can send people to purchase them in smaller batches. Also, next spring, we can allow the Qin people to grow medicinal herbs. Although their medicinal properties will be reduced, they will still be sufficient for refining pills. Do you understand?"
"Sir, you are truly wise. I understand." "Then let's get started!"
"I'm taking my leave!" Zhao Gao left immediately.
Donghuang Taiyi, Beimingzi, Guiguzi, and the others were filled with admiration as they watched Zhao Chen so easily resolve the issue of merchants driving up drug prices. However, this situation was commonplace for them. The most important thing now was to quickly find the herbs they needed to help them break through to the realm of the celestial being.
"Sir, I'm leaving now."
"Disciple, I have to go and get busy. If you have anything, please contact me through Xiaomeng."
"Sir, I need to leave for a while."
"Okay, Teacher, Donghuang, take your time. If you really can't find all the herbs, don't rush for quick success." Zhao Chen reminded him. "Understood."
Several people then slipped away.
After a moment, Yan Fei looked at the prescription in her hand and asked, "Sir, do these herbs really exist? I have never heard of these names."
"Of course it exists. Does Sister Yanfei think I'm fooling them?"
"That's not the case. I've just never heard of these herbs. I'm truly impressed by your ability to describe their growing environment and appearance so clearly. How did you know all this?"
"I'm not very clear about it either, but in the process of understanding the recipe, this information naturally imprinted in my mind."
"So that's how it is. It seems that you are indeed a born sage, born with wisdom."
At this moment, Yan Fei truly understood what it meant to be gifted. Seeing Zhao Chen's performance over the past period, how could she not admire him? Lord Dong Huang's choice three years ago was indeed the right one.
"Sister, stop praising me. I need to have a good sleep. Refining the elixir has consumed a lot of my true energy. I am very tired."
"Well, please have a good rest, sir."
"I will reward you well tonight." Yan Fei smiled and cast a charming glance.
Zhao Chen couldn't help but be stunned: "...When will I grow up?" Although he felt a little unhappy, he still turned around and left.
The Moon Goddess glared at Yan Fei fiercely before disappearing without a trace. The others dispersed silently.
Zhangtai Palace at this moment.
Ever since Zhao Gao's departure, Ying Zheng had been unable to focus on state affairs. The thought of the elixir of immortality within reach made him lose all interest in government. Even if the elixir of immortality didn't exist, he would still accept a pill that could extend his lifespan. Compared to a miraculous drug like the Breaking Sect Pill, a longevity pill would surely be easier to obtain! He was convinced that his son, Zhao Chen, would be able to find the recipe for such a pill.
This trust was almost blind. He felt that as long as Zhao Chen was willing to do it, anything could be accomplished.
"This servant pays homage to the king."
"Zhao Gao, what's the situation?"
At this moment, Ying Zheng's voice could not hide his excitement.
"Your Majesty, the young master said that he does have the recipe for the elixir of immortality, but..."
Before Zhao Gao could finish his words, Ying Zheng interrupted him impatiently.
"Are you really sure? Can you really make an elixir of immortality?"
"Your Majesty, please allow me to finish." Zhao Gao had never seen the king so excited. "Young Master can indeed refine the elixir of immortality, but the elixir requires numerous medicinal herbs, many of which grow in inaccessible places. Even Master Donghuang Taiyi and Master Beimingzi have never seen them. Furthermore, your current cultivation level is still low, making refining this elixir extremely difficult."
"What about the recipe? Has he written it down?" "Yes."
"Show it to me!"
Zhao Gao presented the recipe for the elixir, but Ying Zheng couldn't help but smile bitterly after reading it.
This was the first time he had heard of many of the herbs mentioned above, and they were indeed extraordinary.
Then, Ying Zheng's eyes fell on another recipe. "Zhao Gao, what is this longevity pill?"
"This is the longevity pill that you can refine now, each pill can extend your life by twenty years. All you need is a longevity fruit."
"An elixir that extends life by twenty years! Haha, great! Zhao Gao, immediately send someone to find the Longevity Fruit." "I obey your orders, and I request the assistance of Master Donghuang Taiyi and others."
"Well, why are they so motivated?"
Ying Zheng didn't think Donghuang Taiyi would be so enthusiastic.
"Your Majesty, the young master can also refine another elixir, called the Celestial Being Elixir. It is even more potent than the Breaking Sect Elixir and can allow a peak-level immortal to break through to the Celestial Being realm without any side effects. However, the herbs required are extremely rare and in great quantities. Therefore, they have requested that the young master write down the properties and descriptions of the herbs so that they can be searched for throughout the world."
"So that's how it is. That makes sense." Ying Zheng suddenly understood.
Similar to his obsession with the Shouyuan Pill, those people naturally could not resist the Tianren Pill that could help them break through.
"Very good, Zhao Gao, you did a great job. Send someone to find the longevity fruit, and prepare the other medicinal herbs as soon as possible!"
"My slave takes orders."
"By the way, how's the Qi-strengthening Pill going? And how's the procurement of medicinal herbs going? I heard some merchants are taking advantage of the situation to drive up prices and even hoard herbs."
"Your Majesty is wise. The young master has already given me a countermeasure. I guarantee that within half a month, I can refine at least 3,000 Qi-strengthening Pills."
"Very good. Once the elixir is successfully refined, send it to General Wang Jian immediately. He will know what to do."
"The slaves obey."
"Go and do your work first!"
"Slave, please leave!"
Having achieved his wish, Ying Zheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Gai Nie, what do you think when you hear about the realm above the land immortals?"
"Your Majesty, to be honest, I am truly shocked. I never imagined that Master and the others had reached such a state. The level of cultivation of the celestial beings on earth is truly unimaginable."
"That's true. I finally broke through to the middle stage of the Xiantian realm with great difficulty, but that little bastard has already reached the Grandmaster level. It seems that my cultivation talent is indeed limited."
"Your Majesty's wisdom and military prowess have made the power of the Qin Empire flourish. If it weren't for the busy government affairs, your cultivation would surely be even faster. I hope Your Majesty will not indulge in self-pity."
"Haha, I'm very clear about my situation, so there's no need to comfort me. But I do want to ask, does that kid have any elixirs that can increase my true energy without having to practice?"
"This... this humble official is not sure either. Perhaps only you yourself know the answer."
"Forget it. The Qin Dynasty is preparing to unify the six kingdoms and is busy with state affairs. I won't bother that kid anymore."
"I understand!"
Ying Zheng continued to handle state affairs, and Zhao Chen's life returned to normal.
However, the Moon Goddess has entered a state of seclusion. She has been practicing with Zhao Chen recently. In addition to predicting celestial phenomena, she has been focusing on cultivation.
The same goes for Xiaomeng and Xiaoyi. Although they don't have too many distracting thoughts, they all hope to become strong quickly.
In South Korea, the situation has become desperate.
The hundreds of thousands of troops led by Ji Wuye and the one hundred thousand soldiers led by Xueyi Hou were simply unable to withstand the firearms.
Although Ji Wuye and Xueyi Hou are extremely powerful, Daqin also has many masters guarding it. What can they do to them?
After the two armies were destroyed, Han** no longer had any troops to resist the attack of Daqin.
In addition, Wang Jian had already conquered nearly half of Han**'s territory, and at this moment Han** had lost its ability to resist.
The whole of Korea was in chaos.
Especially King An of Han, who had already given up the idea of resistance and planned to surrender in order to save his life.
The ministers had no choice but to accept the impending destruction of Korea.
There was wailing throughout the Kingdom of Han, mainly among the nobles and ministers, because they had suffered huge losses in material supplies.
As for the common people, they did not feel sad, but rather extremely excited, because they were about to become the subjects of the Great Qin.
I just wonder if the Emperor of Qin would discriminate against people based on their nationality? I hope not!
In the Qin Dynasty, the whole country was celebrating.
Taking over a country in just two months was unimaginable in the past.
And everything behind this is thanks to the Seventh Prince of the Qin Dynasty.
Without his research results, how could South Korea fall into his hands so easily?
Although Han** Kingdom is the weakest among the seven countries, it is still formidable, not to mention Ji Wuye's tens of thousands of elite troops.
Without firearms, how could they have defeated these armies so quickly? Therefore, everything should be attributed to Zhao Chen.
When the news of Wang Jian's victory reached the Qin State, King Ying Zheng of Qin immediately ordered Xiao He and Li Si to print more newspapers to record the battle in detail, and especially commended Zhao Chen's research results.
Not only that, a new notice was specially published, announcing that the people of Han** would become subjects of Daqin and would be treated equally.
However, as citizens of the Qin Empire, we must abide by its laws. If we violate them, we will be severely punished.
Subsequently, major laws and regulations were also published in newspapers.
After completing all this, Ying Zheng sent people to deliver newspapers to the Kingdom of Han** and sell them in major cities.
Sell it.
We strive to ensure that all Korean people can see it as soon as possible.
This way, they can truly put their minds at ease and no longer have to worry so much. As for Zhao Chen...
Restoring old life
Back to the old way of life again.
Sometimes he would meditate in his study, sometimes he would fish, or play chess.
Of course, through the teachings of the Book Spirit, he also created many **, but for him, this was just for fun and he rarely used them.
Because his understanding of the Dao has deepened, he can now do whatever he wants, whether fighting enemies or doing other things. He can use any move he can think of, even if it's just a rough application. It's like the Xiao Wuxiang Gong in "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils," which is just an imitation.
As for the magical powers in fantasy novels and the world of cultivation, it is naturally impossible to use them.
