The news about the holy water quickly spread throughout Yunzhou's upper circles.
At first many people did not believe it or thought it was exaggerated, but after some of them tasted the holy water, these doubts quickly disappeared.
Instead, it was replaced by heated discussions and admiration among Yunzhou’s powerful circles.
Many of the big guys had received invitations, but when they saw the name of Mr. Shen, they stood them up without even saying hello.
At this moment, when they learned that Shen Yingnian had actually developed such magical water, they couldn't help but feel extremely regretful!
It's probably a kind of wrong feeling!
However, when these bigwigs learned that Shen Yingnian was just whetting everyone's appetite and the real auction for the agency rights would be held on the weekend, they felt a little more balanced.
Then, they began to study and analyze how much it would cost to grab the agency rights for the holy water this time.
One of the freeloaders even sent the holy water directly for testing to see if the formula could be cracked.
But this is obviously meaningless.
Although the Foundation Establishment Pill is only a basic elixir for cultivators, there are very few of them in the secular world.
In the original novel, practitioners like Xiao Chen have not yet reached the level where they can take the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Only authentic sects of cultivation such as the Tianshi Sect in Kunlun Mountain have them, but the number is very small, and each one is extremely precious.
You’re dreaming of trying to break down this magical water that is diluted from the Foundation Establishment Pill!
But for Mr. Shen, who has a system dad, this thing is just like a snack now.
He would go to Yunxia Mountain to sign in and punch in every day, and his rewards were all Foundation Establishment Pills.
However, Shen Yingnian rarely took this kind of medicine later on, because he found that the effect of the Foundation Building Pill on improving physical fitness became less and less.
This should be the foundation-building pill that has improved the body to the extreme. If you want to improve it further, you can only try to sign in for a more advanced pill.
So he signed in at Yunxia Mountain for the remaining few days and stored up all the Foundation Establishment Pills.
There were five pills in total, and he gave them all to Nie Ruoyun to process into magic water.
However, Nie Ruoyun showed disdain towards these five priceless foundation-building pills.
"Too little." Nie Ruoyun frowned and said, "With just these few, at most they can be diluted into fifty bottles of water, which is not enough to satisfy those bidding merchants."
"It's just an auction. Does that mean everyone who comes to bid has to be fed?" Young Master Shen said with a sneer.
Nie Ruoyun was very angry: "We want to do long-term business, okay? After the agency rights are auctioned off, we will have to supply each agent with tens of thousands of bottles every day, and this is still a conservative estimate."
After a pause, Nie Ruoyun suddenly looked at Mr. Shen suspiciously: "Tell me the truth, are you not planning to do a serious business at all, and just want to make a quick buck and leave?"
Nie Ruoyun couldn't help but doubt.
Until today, Shen Yingnian still hasn't given her the formula for these pills, and hasn't even set up a factory to produce bottled water. This looks like a scam business no matter how you look at it!
Young Master Shen felt guilty for a moment, but he remained calm and said, "How is this possible? Don't let your imagination run wild. I, Shen Yingnian, value my reputation more than my life. How could I do such a thing as cheating and deceiving others?"
Nie Ruoyun really wanted to ask him if he felt guilty for saying such a thing, but she was really afraid that her suspicion was true, and it would be difficult to resolve the situation then!
"Besides, I have no intention of mass-producing this kind of water," Shen Yingnian added.
Nie Ruoyun's eyes widened in surprise: "If you don't mass produce, then why are you selling the agency rights?"
"Even if you don't understand hunger marketing, you should understand the principle that scarcity makes things valuable." Shen Yingnian said confidently, "The larger the production, the cheaper it seems. You don't think ordinary people can drink this kind of water often, do you?"
This was actually Xiao Chen's idea in the original novel. He deliberately controlled the production and only allocated a few hundred bottles per month to each agent. As a result, the price of the magic water became higher and higher, and it almost became the Hermes of water.
And Nie Ruoyun was actually fooled into it, and thought that it was okay to do so. At worst, he could just state the monthly production quota to the agents in advance and let the agents set their own prices.
"But just a few dozen bottles a week won't be enough. You can't ask each agent to take only ten bottles back to sell, right?" Nie Ruoyun spread his hands.
"Use these five pills first, and I'll find a way to take the rest."
Shen Yingnian ran away after making an excuse.
In fact, he was quite at a loss.
He actually had little interest in the holy water business. He was just a second-generation rich man who lived a carefree life and had no desire to work hard to make money.
But I had promised Nie Ruoyun before. If I failed, not only would I have no chance to knock her down, but I would also lose the bet and have to pay 10 billion!
Moreover, he really didn't want to waste his precious daily sign-in opportunities on the Foundation Establishment Pill.
After thinking about it, he ran to the Chapter 7 Bar at night.
It just so happened that Lin Chuyin, Shengnan, Tienan and others were working together on a capture plan.
"You've come just in time. I have something to talk to you about." Lin Chuyin said to Tienan, Shengnan and the others, "Let's stop here for now. I have something to discuss with the newcomer on a personal level."
Tienan, Shengnan and others were a little puzzled. What kind of secrets needed to be discussed with this rookie alone without their knowledge
After everyone left, Lin Chuyin said directly: "He just sent a message saying that he can't come back for a while."
"what happened?"
"He didn't elaborate."
"so what should I do now?"
Shen Yingnian pressed on, "The auction is tomorrow, and he stood us up at the last minute?"
Lin Chuyin said helplessly: "I complained to my father in the same way, and he only said one sentence."
"say what?"
"I believe you."
Lin Chuyin pointed at Shen Yingnian and said with a strange look on her face: "Yes, the boss said he believes you can complete the task successfully."
what
Young Master Shen had a big question mark on his face.
Zhai Qing looks so fresh and refined even when he puts down his burden.
Seeing Shen Yingnian's embarrassed expression, Lin Chuyin suddenly revealed a sly smile. She seemed to enjoy seeing Shen Yingnian being humiliated.
Then, she suddenly changed the subject and said, "Don't worry, the boss left us a weapon. As long as the kidnappers dare to show up, they will definitely not be able to escape."
Under Shen Yingnian's gaze, Lin Chuyin turned around, opened the safe, and took out a glass box from it. There were a few black stones in the box. Upon closer inspection, they appeared crystal clear and shiny, with a restrained black light.
"Obsidian is a stone that can absorb spiritual energy." Lin Chuyin explained: "We often use this stone to set up magic arrays."
Shen Yingnian had a vague impression of this thing. After careful thinking, he suddenly remembered that Xiao Chen also used this thing to set up magic arrays several times in the novel, but the effect was rather weird...
"It's just that the magic array arranged with obsidian is rather weird." Lin Chuyin gave an almost identical evaluation: "Generally, magic arrays that are helpful to practitioners are arranged with jade, because the best jade often contains spiritual essence, which is most suitable for human body absorption."
"On the contrary, obsidian can also contain spiritual energy, but it will not emit spiritual energy for practitioners to absorb. Instead, it will absorb spiritual energy from the practitioners!"
Equals one output and one absorption.
Lin Chuyin patted the glass box and said, "It's all contained in glass now to prevent the obsidian from backfiring my spiritual energy. But I plan to use the obsidian to set up a magic circle at the auction site to trap the kidnappers!"
Shen Yingnian nodded after thinking carefully. This was a good idea. If he could achieve the effect described in the novel, he might be able to eliminate the threat posed by that gang of robbers directly and capture them without bloodshed.
At the same time, looking at the obsidian, Young Master Shen suddenly had an idea and thought of a way to mass-produce the holy water...
