Primordial Harem System
Chapter Summary
After all, even if the herbs were of the lowest tier, they were well preserved due to Shen Yuan's excellent extracting skills. For the bulk and quality, I can give you 10,000 Gold coins for the tier 1 herbs and 500 Low level Spirit Stones for the Tier 2 herbs. "Shen Yuan nodded thoughtfully, "That's a fair offer," he said with a slight smile on his face, he already had a rough estimate of the herbs prices from listing to the vendors outside so this didn't surprise him.
She picked up each herb to determine its age, potency, and quality.
As she continued, her expression remained professional but Shen Yuan could see a hint of excitement hidden in her eyes.
After all, even if the herbs were of the lowest tier, they were well preserved due to Shen Yuan's excellent extracting skills.
After a while, she stood up straight, brushed her hands, and looked up at Shen Yuan.
"These herbs are of excellent quality, and there are even peak tier 2 herbs," she began, her tone becoming more respectful, she took a deep breath as she offered,"Most of them are tier 1, and quite a few tier 2, and some of them are of exceptional quality.
For the bulk and quality, I can give you 10,000 Gold coins for the tier 1 herbs and 500 Low level Spirit Stones for the Tier 2 herbs.
"Shen Yuan nodded thoughtfully, "That's a fair offer," he said with a slight smile on his face, he already had a rough estimate of the herbs prices from listing to the vendors outside so this didn't surprise him.
"I'll accept it.
" He said as he handed over the herbs to her.
The young woman's hands moved faster than lighting as she gave him the coins and spirit stones.
Shen Yuan smiled lightly and threw all of it inside his storage ring.
After finishing the transaction, she glanced at him and curiously asked, "Are you perhaps an alchemist, Sir?
"Shen Yuan chuckled lightly, "Not quite at that level, though I have indeed dabbled in it here and there.
But I'm more interested in exploring different paths of cultivation.
" He didn't want to reveal much about himself, but he knew how much a jack of all trades is valued in the cultivation world.
That's why he mentioned it in passing, hoping he might get something interesting.
The young woman's eyes sparkled in surprise, "I see.
Well, if you need anything related to alchemy, ingredients, pills, recipes, etc.
Green Jade Alchemy Pavilion has the finest collection of them in the city.
"Shen Yuan thought for a moment, "I was looking for some alchemy manuals to buy, but I haven't seen any in the pavilion.
"The young woman smiled lightly, "We don't have it on display for regular guests, you can come to the back of the pavilion with me if you would like to take a look at them.
"Shen Yuan nodded his head and gestured for her to lead the way.
She smiled politely and began leading the way.
Shen Yuan followed her deeper into the pavilion, noticing the increasing quality of protective formations around the pills and herbs all over the place.
They soon reached a sturdy hall, a serene room lined with bookshelves.
Shen Yuan glanced around, spotting a variety of manuals and scrolls related to alchemy, each marked with titles like, "Basic Herbology" to "Master Grade Crafting Techniques"[You should pick something useful for your current cultivation stage.
If you don't have any alchemy techniques or recipes, you should first look for those.
Either way, the pills you would refine now won't be of much use to you.
You would need Peak Tier 3 pills or Tier 4 Pills to have an effect on you.
]She advised him calmly, looking at his situation.
[You should start from tier 1 and build your foundation.
]Shen Yuan nodded internally, 'You are right, with my current mastery, forget about making a tier 3 or tier 4 pill, it would be surprising if I could make a tier 1 pill.
'[No need to degrade yourself, you have never touched a cauldron in your life, and you are already ahead of everyone with the confidence to make tier 1 pills so soon.
]Shen Yuan smiled lightly as he walked towards a shelf where pill refinement techniques were stored.
He looked around for a bit until one technique caught his eye, "Spirit Flame Pill Refinement Technique" he read aloud.
It was a manual focused on refining a pill with spirit flames, the technique had no specialty as it was the most basic of the basic techniques.
He picked it up and looked at the young woman, "I will take this.
"She looked at him in confusion, since it was the cheapest technique she thought he might be low on budget.
"I shall pack it up for you, Sir.
" she still remained professional and smiled politely at him.
Shen Yuan looked at her attitude and nodded in approval, "I also want to buy recipes for pills.
"The young woman nodded and led him towards a different section of the hall where a variety of recipes were placed.
They were arranged in order from Low-Grade Tier 1 to Mid-Grade Tier 3.
"We have a wide range of recipes here, sir.
Most of our tier 1 and tier 2 recipes are fairly standard but there are a few rarer ones of a higher tier, but their prices are also very steep.
Do you have any specific recipe in mind?
"Shen Yuan looked at the recipes, there weren't many, only around 60 Tier 1 recipes and 20 Tier 2 recipes of various grades.
He thought for a moment, 'The recipes would always be useful, and it's not like I'm short on spirit stones.
'With that decided he looked at the young woman, "What are the prices of these recipes?
"The young woman professionally replied, "Each tier has different prices, Low Grade Tier 1 recipes are priced at 10 Low Grade Spirit Stones, Mid Grade Tier 1 is 50 Spirit Stones, High Grade Tier 1 recipes are 100 Spirit Stones, and Peak Grade Tier 1 recipes go for 200 Spirit Stones.
As for the Tier 2 recipes, the prices increase significantly: Low Grade Tier 2 costs 1,000 Spirit Stones, Mid Grade is 2,000 Spirit Stones, High Grade is 4,000 Spirit Stones, and Peak Grade is 8,000 Spirit Stones.
"Shen Yuan mused inwardly, 'The prices are quite reasonable even if they seem outrageous at first, with the potential earning from selling the pills hmm…this business is quite lucrative.
He looked at the labels of the recipes, which wrote their names and explained the effects.
There was a wide variety of them, energy-restoring pill recipes, detoxification pill recipes, healing pill recipes, Qi Boosting pill recipes, etc.
Finally, after looking at all of them, he turned back towards the young woman, smiling slightly, "I would like to buy all of them!
"The young woman doubted her ears for a second as she asked in a confused tone, "Can you repeat that, Sir?
I think I heard incorrectly.
"Shen Yuan raised his eyebrow in amusement as he replied smilingly, "You heard correctly, I would like to buy all the recipes.
"The young woman's eyes widened in disbelief as she asked in a stuttering voice, "A-are y-you sure, sir?
It would cost you a lot to buy all of them.
"Shen Yuan nodded his head, "Every single recipe from tier 1 to tier 2.
"The young woman calmed down as she was also a professional in this field, she hurriedly bowed, "Ah excuse me for my carelessness, I will have everything prepared for you shortly.
The total amount will come to 146,600 spirit stones.
"
