Chapter 68
Because They Insulted My Wife
“Brother Ning, are you suggesting that my Qi family refine the Immortal Refining Pill to suppress the Jiang family’s business?!” Qi Yuan asked, looking at Ning Yechen in astonishment.
“Precisely.”
Ning Yechen nodded slightly.
Qi Yuan, truly a merchant’s daughter, wasn’t stupid after all.
She understood his meaning instantly.
“Before your Qi family acquires enough materials, don’t rush to refine and sell them, lest it arouses the Jiang family’s suspicion.”
“Start refining only after you’re fully prepared.”
“And don’t sell the refined Immortal Refining Pills through auction; sell them at a low price.”
“Miss Qi, you should understand why, right?”
“Brother Ning, are you worried that if we sell them through auction, the auction price will be too high, making it unaffordable for most cultivators?”
“And in that case, even if the Qi family introduces this Immortal Refining Pill and increases revenue, it won’t be able to successfully suppress the Jiang family’s Fire Lotus Elixir?”
Qi Yuan pondered for a moment and answered seriously.
In her heart, she felt both admiration and shock towards Ning Yechen.
To suppress the Jiang family’s business, Brother Ning was willing to take out a seventh-grade body tempering liquid and even sell it at a low price!
Between an exorbitantly priced fourth-grade body tempering liquid and a low-priced seventh-grade one, it was obvious which one people would choose…!
This way, the Jiang family’s business would inevitably be greatly affected, and all the Fire Lotus Elixir they had stockpiled would become difficult to sell!
Ning Yechen nodded approvingly.
What Qi Yuan said was basically what he had in mind.
But there’s one more thing…
She didn’t say it all…
Once the Jiang family’s business plummets, those businesses under the Jiang family will also obediently seek to join the Qi family.
Even if they still choose not to join the Qi family, their businesses will struggle to survive.
At that point, the Qi family can also forcibly acquire those businesses and shops under the Jiang family at extremely low prices!
“After the Qi family starts selling the Immortal Refining Pills, many businesses might actively seek cooperation with you.”
“At that time, the Qi family shouldn’t rush to agree to their terms.”
“Wait until they can’t hold on any longer and proactively offer a higher profit share before agreeing.”
“As for the Jiang family’s shops, try to acquire them all at the lowest possible prices.”
Ning Yechen added further instructions to Qi Yuan.
If he wanted to destroy the Jiang family, it wouldn’t take any effort; he could make them vanish from the world in the blink of an eye.
The reason he had waited until now without taking action against the Jiang family wasn’t because of his benevolence!
It was because he wanted to destroy them only after they had lost everything!
Qi Yuan was completely stunned at this point.
She hadn’t expected Ning Yechen to have already planned out everything for the Qi family!
Brother Ning usually seemed gentle and refined, but she didn’t expect him to be so shrewd and strategic…!
Although his strength might not be as impressive as sister Luo’s, his methods were truly remarkable!
Had Brother Ning been planning to deal with the Jiang family ever since their encounter with Jiang Li that time…?
He even went to great lengths to help her Qi family for this purpose.
Although Qi Yuan knew that Ning Yechen was helping the Qi family only to deal with the Jiang family, she was still immensely grateful.
Luo Ruying, sitting beside them, also hadn’t expected Ning Yechen to deal with the Jiang family in this manner.
However, compared to this unexpected strategy, she was more curious about how he could casually write down a seventh-grade body tempering liquid formula…
“Yecheng, how did you know the formula for this Immortal Refining Pill?”
Luo Ruying couldn’t suppress her curiosity and asked.
For a mortal to be able to write down a seventh-grade body tempering liquid formula that even she had never seen before was simply too unbelievable.
Faced with Luo Ruying’s inquiry, Ning Yechen was prepared. He smiled and took out a notebook filled with pill recipes from his pocket and handed it to her.
“Wife, this is a manual of pill formulas that I once stumbled upon in the mountains.”
“The formula for this body tempering liquid was copied from it.”
Luo Ruying curiously took the notebook and flipped through a few pages. Her gaze was deeply captivated by the notes recorded within.
Each page of the notebook contained a different pill formula.
Although most of them seemed strange at first glance, upon closer inspection, they felt quite innovative!
The combinations of many spirit herbs and medicinal ingredients seemed illogical, yet they hinted at extraordinary effects!
This was clearly the work of some expert experimenting with various novel pill and medicine refining formulas!
Among them were many high-grade pills!
As Ning Yechen had said, the seventh-grade Immortal Refining Pill was also recorded within.
There were even records of the Meridian Healing Elixir!
This also explained how Ning Yechen could casually produce the formula for the Meridian Healing Elixir.
Luo Ruying’s suspicions about Ning Yechen instantly dissipated.
He was just a mortal, how could he possibly experiment and create so many novel pill formulas?
It turned out he had found this notebook of pill recipes…
Although the mystery of how Ning Yechen could casually write down a seventh-grade body tempering liquid formula was solved, Luo Ruying couldn’t help but feel worried.
The value of this pill recipe book in her hands was extraordinary!
It contained many new and easier-to-refine pill and elixir formulas!
This must have been dropped by the senior who rescued her in the forest before…
He must be very anxious now…
She would return it to him if she had the chance in the future…
“Yecheng, this pill recipe book you found must have been dropped by some expert.”
“This book is of great value and very precious. I’ll keep it for now.”
“I’ll return it to him when I have the opportunity.”
Luo Ruying said to Ning Yechen.
Fortunately, the book wasn’t damaged. Returning it to that senior shouldn’t be a problem.
Ning Yechen smiled and nodded.
“Alright, as you wish, wife.”
That pill recipe book was just a draft he had casually jotted down; it wasn’t a big deal at all…
But being able to use it to dispel his wife’s suspicions was perfect…
“Time is of the essence. Miss Qi, you should head back early and let the Qi family start preparing.”
Ning Yechen turned to Qi Yuan and advised.
“Yes! Brother Ning!”
Qi Yuan’s face was full of smiles, her heart brimming with excitement.
She put away the Immortal Refining Pill formula and was ready to return immediately to have the entire Qi family start preparations!
She couldn’t wait to see the Jiang family’s reaction then!
After placing the formula in her bosom, Qi Yuan still felt it wasn’t safe enough. She repeatedly hid it in various places on her body…
But no matter where she put it, she felt insecure!
What she held in her hand wasn’t just a piece of paper, but a priceless seventh-grade body tempering liquid formula!
The weight of this paper was unimaginable!
If anyone else found out, she might not even make it back to the Qi family alive!
After careful consideration, Qi Yuan ultimately decided that holding the formula in her hand was the safest option, while keeping her hand hidden within her clothes.
“Brother Ning, Sister Luo, I’ll be taking my leave then!”
After bidding farewell to Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying, Qi Yuan cautiously walked out of the courtyard gate, clutching the formula.
As soon as she left the gate, her eyes darted around, looking at everyone as if they were plotting against her!
Acting like this only makes you look more suspicious…
It’s as if you’re afraid others won’t know you’re carrying something valuable…
“Qingyou, send someone to protect her in secret…”
Ning Yechen transmitted to Yue Qingyou, feeling uneasy.
“Tsk! Yes.”
Yue Qingyou clicked her tongue in disapproval, then replied.
It was clear that she truly wanted to kill Qi Yuan…
After Qi Yuan left, Luo Ruying asked Ning Yechen in puzzlement.
“Yecheng, why do you want to ruin the Jiang family?”
Ever since he changed the wager at the Contests of Commerce competition last time, she had felt that Ning Yechen seemed to be deliberately targeting the Jiang family.
Ning Yechen turned back to gaze at Luo Ruying and said with a gentle smile, “Because they insulted my wife.”
These words made Luo Ruying’s heart tremble slightly.
So he wants to deal with the Jiang family for her sake…
