Some enthusiastic people asked again, "Palace Master Qiao, I remember you said there would be three types of elixirs introduced. Besides the Divine Elegance Creation Pill and the Vast Sea Pill, what else is there?"
"Yes, the Medicine Master Hall's products are reliable. Just tell us all at once, to make everyone happy!"
"Palace Master Qiao, don't keep us in suspense, just tell us."
The crowd below was restless, all eagerly awaiting the answer.
Qiao Baishi nodded and smiled calmly, "After careful consideration, we have decided to introduce this third type of elixir. The Medicine Master Hall will significantly reduce its profit margin. The purpose is to thank everyone for their strong support of the Medicine Master Hall over the years."
"The third type of elixir is called One Buddha Powder, a refreshing and detoxifying pill. Compared to the best similar elixirs on the market, the effectiveness of One Buddha Powder may be doubled. And the price we set for it is only half of the best elixir on the market!"
Double the effect, half the price!
When Qiao Baishi said this, the scene fell silent for a moment. They almost doubted their own ears.
Did they hear it wrong?
An elixir with double the effect, not only not increasing in price, but actually halving the price?
This...
Finally, someone couldn't hold back, "Palace Master Qiao, this... you're not joking, right?"
"The Medicine Master Hall's reputation is at stake. How could I dare to speak nonsense? The Medicine Master Hall is a man of his word. To be honest, we didn't plan to make much profit from One Buddha Powder."
The last sentence was slightly exaggerated. In fact, One Buddha Powder did not require a refining process, there was no material waste, and its cost was only one-tenth of the Crane Heart Pill from the Elixir King Garden.
With such low costs, even halving the price would still be highly profitable.
In fact, even if it were sold at the same price as the Crane Heart Pill, it would absolutely create a market sensation. But Qiao Baishi deliberately cut the price in half.
His goal was to ensure that the Elixir King Garden had no chance of a comeback.
Additionally, this was an opportunity to build a good reputation for the Medicine Master Hall and solidify its position as the top giant in the spirit medicine world.
Qiao Baishi launched three moves in succession, each more shocking than the last.
For the Elixir King Garden, these three moves were like three heavy punches, each more deadly than the last!
Wang Yuanzhu, the head of the Elixir King Garden, was almost unable to stand, feeling dizzy and almost fainting, his teeth chattering uncontrollably.
He knew this wasn't a joke; this was a bloodless battle in the market. The three moves from the Medicine Master Hall had already destroyed the foundation of the Elixir King Garden.
"Head Yuanzhu, what... what should we do?"
"Master Zi, please say something. You can't just watch the Elixir King Garden go bankrupt, can you?"
"Yes, Master Zi, we all work for Lord Longteng. You..."
Master Zi snorted coldly, looked at the high-ranking officials of the Elixir King Garden with disdain, and swept away.
"Unable to accomplish anything, but good at causing trouble!"
Seeing Master Zi sweep away, the high-ranking officials of the Elixir King Garden lost their last bit of hope.
The high-ranking officials of the Medicine Master Hall also felt as if they were in a dream. Qiao Baishi's moves one after another were unexpected even to them.
After all, to avoid leaks, Qiao Baishi had kept it secret, and even many of the high-ranking officials present were unaware of the details.
Except for a few loyal elders who had received hints from Qiao Baishi, including the Second Palace Master Yue Qun, many high-ranking officials were completely unaware beforehand.
But at this moment, Yue Qun wasn't concerned about these things. Seeing the Elixir King Garden's people floundering, his old face was almost beaming with joy.
"Old Three, this move of yours is really impressive!" Yue Qun patted Qiao Baishi's shoulder, "The Great Palace Master trusted and cultivated you so much, and I always found it a bit strange. Now it seems that my judgment is indeed not as good as the Great Palace Master's."
"Second Palace Master, you are experienced and steady. I have much to learn from you," Qiao Baishi said humbly.
Next, the elixir testers came on stage.
The first rule of being an elixir tester is to be fair and speak the truth.
Of course, the spirit medicines from the Medicine Master Hall were all up to the test. After several attempts by the elixir testers, these elixirs were thoroughly recognized!
The Divine Elegance Creation Pill, the Vast Sea Pill, and One Buddha Powder were all genuine!
With the guarantee of the elixir testers, the last bit of doubt at the scene was dispelled, and all the guests were沸腾了,蜂拥着挤到展台前。
“乔殿主,我是兵部范尚书的公子。明天一早我就去药师殿订货,记得给我留个号啊。”
“岳老,我哥是户部张侍郎,你们是几十年的交情了吧?明天给兄弟我留个号,我要订货!”
一时间,各种拉关系的,套近乎的,纷纷涌过来。
药师殿这边人手众多,一时间也是有些招架不住。
而被药师殿请来的勾玉公主,望着这大逆转的一幕,一张俏脸凝重之极,偶尔朝江尘投去匆匆一瞥,内心充满了疑问。
再看江尘,一直面带微笑,仿佛眼前这一切热闹,与他毫无关系。
江尘越是如此,勾玉公主便越坚信,药师殿这次绝地大反击,定然有此子的因素在里面。
勾玉公主心情正复杂时,一名药师殿的长老恭恭敬敬地走过来,手里捧着一只高档玉盒。
“公主殿下,这是一份干股协议。听江小侯说,这一佛散有公主的功劳在里面。这是两成干股,请公主殿下笑纳。”
两成干股,这几乎就是坐地分钱!
勾玉呆住了,这有什么功劳?江尘这小子搞什么鬼?不过随即想起江尘给自己开的那个方子,猛然想起江尘当初说过,如果她勾玉信不过,可以拿这方子去药师殿换几百万银子。
果然,这事的背后,有这小子的手笔!
勾玉公主更加坚定了内心的猜测。她是王室公主,也不矫情,稍微点了点头,便有手下人将这两成干股的协议收下了。
她很清楚,这两成干股的分量。何止是几百万两的价值?这一佛散面世之后,必然席卷市场,带来毫无疑问的垄断。
长久来算,这两成干股的收益,绝对是用亿来计算的。
丹王苑的一场疯狂的造势,结果却成全了药师殿。而且,顺带把自己给推入了灭亡的深渊中。
这简直就是挖个坑把自己给埋了!
在药师殿高层们一再保证下,现场的宾客才恋恋不舍地离开了。
此役,药师殿大获全胜,满载而归。
江尘作为幕后操控人,该看的热闹也都看完了。带着手下,也准备离开,路过丹王苑的展台时,江尘忽然停住了脚步。
“对了,汪苑主,我上次好心提醒你,时日无多了。你把小爷我的好心当了驴肝肺,唉,都不知道该怎么安慰你。”
对这汪苑主,江尘是打算一脚踩死的。
此人上次在龙腾侯宴席上,公然打压江家,羞辱父亲江枫。在江尘眼里,此人注定是冢中枯骨,时日不多的。
汪苑主目中射出冷冽杀机,通红的双眼充满了疯狂,就好像一头穷途末日的饿狼,随时准备拼命。
走出万宝宫,江尘语气一寒:“打蛇不死,反遭其害。这丹王苑,要搞,就必须搞垮,搞死!”
胜字营四兄弟都纷纷点头,觉得江尘言之有理。
“江尘,你等一等。”
万宝宫门口,勾玉公主一身淡绿皮甲,裹挟着一阵天然体香,飞快来到江尘跟前。
将那盒子一递:“这两成干股,还你。”
“还我干什么?”江尘笑了笑,“这不是给你的红包吗?”
“哼,别以为本宫不知道,药师殿能翻盘,肯定有你在里面搞鬼。这一佛散,你以为我不知道什么来历吗?”勾玉公主面颊微红。
“说给你就收下便是,废话那么多干嘛?”江尘翻了个白眼,“再说,这一佛散,你是第一个服用的。是试丹勇士,拿点红包也正常不是?”
“什么?江尘你个臭小子,竟然把本宫当试丹勇士?”勾玉公主忍不住有些莫名发火。
“你这不是没事嘛!”江尘嘿嘿一笑。开什么玩笑,他江尘作为闻名诸天位面的丹道大师,拿出来的丹方,那都是其他更高级位面的先进丹方,都是经过千锤百炼的真理,哪还需要什么试丹勇士?
“别一副凶巴巴的样子了。我知道你内心一定很感激我的。如果想报答我,早点把那套飞刀给我送过来吧。”
说完,江尘两腿一夹,打马飞奔而去。
胜字营四兄弟奉命保护江尘,只能无奈地朝公主看了一眼,飞快地跟了上去。
剩下勾玉公主,手里拿着玉盒,怔怔发呆。经过今日一事,勾玉已经基本可以确定,这江尘绝对没有他表面看起来那么简单。
“江尘……”勾玉公主轻轻咀嚼着这个名字,一时间陷入了莫名的深思。
……
回到江翰候府,江尘并没有因为今天的事,过于兴奋。说白了,今天的事,对他而言,终究只是一个插曲。
无尽武道,才是江尘的终极目标。
“江正,你去一趟药师殿,让乔白石来我这里一趟。”江尘想了片刻,心里有了一点主意。
他可不想整日分心去考虑药师殿的事,武道之路,江尘需要更专心。
不得不说,乔白石如今对江尘,已经是近乎盲目的崇拜了。虽然药师殿有一大堆事等他处理,但是一听到江尘召唤,他却是一点犹豫都没有,立刻起身赶到。
对于乔白石这种态度,江尘还是满意的。
“三殿主,我只有一句话,我今天可以给你药师殿的,明日也可以从你药师殿十倍取回,不知道你信不信?"
