Chapter 386: Chapter 212: Taking a Risk to Earn Several Billion Energy Points? (5k)
"Huh? Holy crap!"
"Over three hundred million energy?"
Su Xing's eyes widened. He never expected that this bronze coffin would be worth so much.
This indicated that the bronze coffin was definitely not made of mere bronze but rather a special metal containing a vast amount of energy.
"Moreover... every True Immortal uses this copper coffin. It should also have the effect of preserving their bodies, right?"
Su Xing pondered. Before figuring out the exact use of this bronze coffin, he decided not to convert it into energy for now.
What if it turned out to be useful?
Su Xing temporarily placed the bronze coffin in the Spirit Field Cave, then began his daily elixir refining.
In the blink of an eye, another six days passed.
Su Xing refined over six thousand Fasting Pills in total.
On this day, it was time for his scheduled meeting with Jin Congxue. Su Xing disguised himself and concealed his aura before heading to the villa.
Jin Congxue was wearing a black "stepmother dress" today, showing off her body curves perfectly.
"Oh, you came early today, busy man!"
Jin Congxue poured Su Xing a pot of tea and said cheerfully.
After hearing this, Su Xing also smiled. The two of them sat facing each other, chatting and occasionally eating the delicacies on the table.
Soon, they got to the main topic.
Jin Congxue took out a Fasting Pill, looked at Su Xing with a serious expression, and said:
"Su Xing, did you also refine this elixir?"
Su Xing nodded slightly and said casually: "Of course, where else would it come from, the sky?"
Jin Congxue rolled her eyes and said:
"I don't have time to joke with you! I'm talking about serious matters... do you know the importance of this elixir?"
Su Xing raised an eyebrow and took a sip of tea, saying:
"Isn't it just a common elixir? Didn't we also have the Nourishing Face Pill before? It should be similar, right?"
Jin Congxue's tone instantly became excited as she said:
"How can that be the same? The Nourishing Face Pill is only useful for rich, elderly women!"
"But this Fasting Pill can change the battlefield and even enhance the strength of the Human Race!"
Su Xing chuckled but didn't say much.
However, Jin Congxue spoke seriously:
"Do you know what it would mean if the Great Xia Military knew you could refine this elixir?"
"According to the appraisal from the grandmaster at the Jin Merchant Guild, this elixir can ensure that a Grandmaster Level expert maintains a certain level of physical strength for three to six months without hunger affecting their combat abilities!"
"Even a Heavenly King Level expert can maintain their strength for about a month!"
After a pause, Jin Congxue continued:
"You know about the Demon-Subduing Pass, right? Each year, the soldiers at the Demon-Subduing Pass have a huge expenditure on food!"
"Especially as the level of Profession Users increases, their vitality becomes more abundant, so they require more food for sustenance!"
"The logistics of supplying the front line are already a troublesome issue..."
"But with your elixir, the entire Great Xia Military at the Demon-Subduing Pass could maintain sufficient combat strength with just hundreds of thousands of pills a year!"
"And this could prevent many casualties... do you understand?"
Seeing Jin Congxue say all this in one breath, Su Xing just smiled and said:
"Of course I understand, but you got one thing wrong..."
"A Grandmaster Level Profession User can guarantee six months of food supply with just one pill!"
"A Master Level Profession User only needs half a pill to ensure six months of food supply..."
"The effect of my elixir might be even better than you think..."
Seeing Su Xing's calm demeanor, Jin Congxue was taken aback and asked in confusion:
"Such a valuable item, how can you just take it out so casually?"
"Aren't you afraid... that I might leak such a big secret? Do you trust me that much?"
Hearing this, Su Xing just smiled slightly. Naturally, he wouldn't say that he had already simulated it without any risk.
Instead, he asked in return:
"So... would you betray me?"
Jin Congxue was stumped by this question. After seriously considering it, she shook her head and said:
"No, I can't betray your trust in me!"
"Besides... I'm lucky that the appraiser I hired was reliable, or it would have leaked already!"
"Rest assured, as of now, the Fasting Pills are safe!"
Hearing this, Su Xing nodded slightly, but he couldn't help but think:
Just these Fasting Pills caused such a big stir?
If Su Xing were to take out the Essence-Nourishing Pills, Organ Refining Pills, and other elixirs in large quantities, what would happen then?
Jin Congxue saw that Su Xing remained silent and continued to ask:
"So how do you plan to trade these elixirs with the Great Xia Military?"
Su Xing thought for a moment and then replied:
"I can refine about thirty thousand Fasting Pills if I work at full capacity for a month..."
"Do you think fifty thousand Fasting Pills would be enough to secure a mining concession for a second-grade Alien Metal mine at an auction?"
After seriously considering this, Jin Congxue replied:
"Absolutely!"
"At the auction, the top merchant guilds can only offer a batch of healing potions and mid-to-high-grade equipment at most..."
"To the Great Xia Military, the value of these items is far inferior to the Fasting Pills you can provide!"
After a pause, Jin Congxue continued:
"I can even try to get you a fast track, bypassing the auction entirely. With fifty thousand pills, you can directly exchange them for a second-grade Alien Metal mining concession!"
Su Xing didn't seem too surprised to hear this.
Jin Congxue's grandfather was Lu Yuanwu, the Martial Emperor of Great Xia, responsible for logistics...
And this Fasting Pill, to Lu Yuanwu, was perfectly suited for his expertise!
Jin Congxue thought for a moment and said:
"I will continue to keep your identity secret. I can guarantee that your information won't be leaked from my side!"
