Chapter 82: The Idea of Selling Dan Medicine

  Still 40 more to collect, looks like I won't be able to update today, so it's tomorrow then, wa kaka ka!

  "This is the foundation pill!" Ouyang Qianyun said, and involuntarily took another look. After all, she had heard of this kind of elixir, but had never seen it before. Moreover, she had also heard that the price of this foundation pill was not cheap, and their sect didn't even provide it for distribution.

  As for the foundation-building pill used by Hua Cheng when he was building his foundation, it was bought by his family at a high price. This kind of elixir is absolutely scarce in the secular world and is a sought-after item. His father had been searching for it for a long time but couldn't buy it.

  As for why the Huajia family can buy it, but the Ouyang family cannot, it's not because the Ouyang family is less wealthy than the Hua family, but because the Hua family is the royal family of the Huaxia country, and they have their own special channels within the imperial family.

  Although the Ou Yang family's wealth is enough to rival a country, they can't compare with the Hua family in terms of connections.

  "Yes, why is this thing so expensive?" Zhang Cheng asked, seeing Ouyang Qianyun's astonished expression.

  These foundation Dans were all obtained directly from Danzhu Zi and he didn't even ask about the price, so he had no idea of their true value.

  "Yes, it's indeed very expensive. Many sects can't afford this kind of elixir, so their disciples cultivate step by step to break through the foundation period. Our Bi Xia Sect is like that too." Ouyang Qianyun replied.

  "Do you know the true value of Zhuji Dan?" Zhang Cheng was somewhat curious, after all, he still had a lot of this stuff in his hands, and it might be worth some money.

  "My father even investigated it for me, and I heard that a single Jīdàn can be worth tens of millions of gold coins, and it's still hard to come by! As soon as it appears on the market, it's bought up by the major sects and families. Ordinary people don't have the financial resources or channels to buy it, so they basically can't get their hands on one." Ou Yang Qian Yun said.

  "Good grief, several tens of millions of gold coins? Is this an exaggeration!" Zhang Cheng couldn't help but feel a little incredulous. After all, the Foundation Establishment Pill was only meant to allow Qi Refining stage cultivators to advance one stage, and the Foundation Establishment stage wasn't even that high of a cultivation level.

  Moreover, he had also read the "Wuji Danjue" of the Tandao Sect, which contained information about the medicinal materials and proportions used to build the foundation pill. The medicinal materials used to refine the foundation pill were not particularly precious, so he felt that the foundation pill was not worth the price.

  "Zhang Cheng, you are a disciple of the Dan Tao Sect, which is a sect that practices alchemy. Naturally, you wouldn't feel it, but you should know that from the Qi Refining stage to the Foundation Building stage is the first hurdle in the path of cultivating immortality. Many people spend their entire lives and still can't break through. But with this dan medicine, this hurdle almost doesn't exist anymore. Do you think its price is high or not?" Ou Yang Qian Yun replied.

  "It turns out that's the case, I'm a bit ignorant." Upon hearing this, Zhang Chengcai realized the value of the foundation-building pills and thought about how many he still had unused, his heart bloomed with joy.

  At this moment, in his heart, that bottle was no longer a foundation pill, but a mountain of gold and silver, one of which could surpass the income of Tianfeng Gate for ten years. What kind of income is this?

  And at his current cultivation speed, it would only take a few years to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill, and by then, that money would still be flowing into his pockets like water.

  Just thinking about it, his heart couldn't help but flutter, and a silly smile appeared on his face.

  "Zhang Cheng, what's wrong?" Ouyang Qianyun saw Zhang Cheng standing there in a daze, occasionally smiling foolishly, and couldn't help but ask.

  "Oh, haha, nothing!" Zhang Cheng wiped his mouth and then asked: "By the way, little girl, isn't your Ou Yang family in the business of selling medicine? Can I get your family to help me sell the Foundation Establishment Pill?"

  "Are you selling foundation pills?" Ouyang Qianyun was taken aback, and immediately asked: "Zhang Cheng brother, do you still have a lot of foundation pills in your hands?"

  "Hehe, not many, when I came, my master gave me a bottle, just a few dozen or so!" Zhang Cheng didn't know that the foundation-building pill was so valuable at first, so he didn't pay special attention to it. He just took a look and thought about it again, feeling that there should be at least twenty or thirty pills.

  "Ah, so many!" Ouyang Qianyun was also stunned. To think that if these dozens of items were sold out, they would probably surpass the accumulation of the Ouyang family over the past hundred years.

  "Hehe, not many, just a few dozen, but once I learn how to refine them, that's when it'll be a lot!" Zhang Cheng waved his hand with a "I'm very happy" expression.

  "Zhang Cheng, brother, are you really going to sell it? You should know that the value of Zhu Ji Dan is very high. Ordinary people usually use it to exchange for magic treasures, precious medicinal materials and Ling crystals. You're using it to exchange for money, isn't that a bit...?" asked Ouyang Qianyun.

  "It's okay, it's just the right time to use money at home now. Selling it will also help supplement our household expenses. Besides, I can refine more in the future, so we won't lack this. Moreover, I didn't sell all of them, I have to leave some for myself to use. It just so happens that I haven't found a good betrothal gift yet, so I'll use this Foundation Establishment Pill as a gift for you. I think my future father-in-law will be very happy." Zhang Cheng joked.

  "Zhang Cheng, you're bullying me again!" Ouyang Qianyun's face turned red with anger as she scolded him.

  "When did I ever bully you? What, don't you want to marry me now? But I still remember that a few years ago, a little girl said she was my wife?" Zhang Cheng joked.

  "Zhang Cheng, if you bully me again, I won't talk to you anymore." Ouyang Qianyun's face turned bright red from Zhang Cheng's teasing, and she wished she could find a crack in the ground to hide in, but deep down, she felt delighted.

  "Hehe, alright, I won't bully you. Zhang Cheng paused for a moment before continuing: 'However, what I just said was serious, I really do want to sell some Foundation Establishment Pills!'"

  "In that case, I can ask my father, but I don't know if he will agree. After all, the value of the Zhūjīdān is too high, and our family may not be able to afford it on its own. Even if we could sell it, we would have to cooperate with several other families."

  "That's good, after dealing with things here, I'll go back to visit my future father-in-law and see if he can help me sell it." Zhang Cheng nodded.

  "Why don't I go back with you? It's been a long time since I've gone back, and I can take the opportunity to see them." Ou Yang Qian Yun proposed.

  "That can be arranged, then we'll head back together at that time." Zhang Cheng thought for a moment before nodding in agreement.

  "Uh-huh!" Ou Yang Qian Yun nodded and said.

  "Knock, knock, knock..." Just then, a knocking sound came from outside, interrupting the conversation between the two.

  "Zhang Cheng, gege, it's probably someone from the Palm Gate Sect coming to invite you. Otherwise, why don't you go first and I'll tidy up before following?" As she spoke, Ouyang Qianyun didn't forget to touch the storage bracelet on her hand, with which tidying up became much simpler.

  "Alright, I'll wait for you at the alchemy room. When you arrive, just wait outside and I'll come out soon." Zhang Cheng said.

  "Alright, you can go!" As she spoke, Ouyang Qianyun put away the storage ring and Zhang Cheng glanced at busy Ouyang Qianyun before opening the door.

  However, when he got a clear look at the person's appearance, he was stunned for a moment. Wasn't this person Shen Ying, whom he had met earlier at the foot of the mountain?

  Seeing her again, and at the same time recalling what had happened before, Zhang Cheng felt a bit awkward, while Shen Ying just stared at him like that, making his awkwardness even more intense.

  Finally, he couldn't take it anymore and said: "Hey, do we know each other?"

  "What's wrong, don't we know each other?" Shen Ying asked with a hint of amusement.
