C292 The Mystery of the Branch Pavilion
"How's the business of the Herb Medicine Pavilion doing now?" Han Feng asked with a smile.
"Look at the sea of people here. In the old man's opinion, Herb Medicine Pavilion is one of the top three pill powers in Iron Sword City." The old man said.
"Top three, not bad." Han Feng praised in his heart. There were dozens of pill powers in Iron Sword City. There were even some pill giants who monopolized some unique pills. The profits from being able to enter the top three were already very considerable.
"Wait, something doesn't seem right." Han Feng suddenly felt that something was wrong. He recalled what the Third Pavilion Master had said in the letter. "The business of the Herb Medicine Pavilion branch in Iron Sword City is flourishing day by day. It has already entered the top eight. I will share a piece of the pie with the other pill powers. "
"The Third Pavilion Master is talking about the top eight, and this old man is talking about the top three. Which one is the right one? " Han Feng thought in his heart. The top three and the top eight seemed to be only a few ranks apart. But in the Iron Sword City, the difference was huge. The top three pill powers could take a large portion of the profits from the entire industry. It was a considerable amount, but the top eight could only get some leftovers.
This old man had been wandering around the Iron Sword City for a long time, so his estimation of the pill powers should not be wrong. However, the information provided by the Third Pavilion Master should not be false.
"The profit margin is more than ten thousand. The problem, where is it? " Han Feng said in a low voice. His brows were tightly knitted. He was somewhat puzzled. The information was not consistent. Whose information was more trustworthy?
"Little brother, what are you talking about?" The old man saw Han Feng muttering to himself and couldn't help but call out to Han Feng, causing him to suddenly wake up. He smiled apologetically and said, "Sorry, I thought of something and got distracted."
"At such a young age, why would I have so many worries?" The old man stood up as he spoke, "The old man still has some matters to attend to. I'll be leaving first. Little brother, we'll meet again in the future."
"Take care, old man." Han Feng stood up to send him off.
After the old man left, Han Feng continued to sit down. He recalled the previous question and waved to the waiter to come over.
"You're here, sir. What do you need?" The waiter patted the white towel on his shoulder and said respectfully to Han Feng.
"It's like this. I want to buy some pills to help me break through to the Earth Energy Stage. I don't know which family in Iron Sword City has the best pills. Please recommend one, brother." Han Feng said with a smile.
"You have asked the right person. There is nothing that I don't know about in Iron Sword City." When the waiter heard Han Feng's question, he smiled. Obviously, Han Feng's question was his specialty.
"Oh? Please advise me, little brother." Han Feng slightly cupped his hands, and at the same time, he handed over a Profound Spirit Stone, signalling the waiter to continue.
When the waiter saw the Profound Spirit Stone that Han Feng handed over, he was immediately overjoyed. He spoke with even more effort, and only heard him speak. "If you were to come here for half a year, I would definitely recommend you to the Spirit Medicine Pavilion or the Treasure Pill Hall. These two places were the overlords of medicinal pills back then. The other medicinal pill powers could not be compared to them at all. "
The waiter stopped speaking and changed the topic. But now, if you want to buy pills, it will naturally be the Herb Medicine Pavilion across the street. After a few months of competition, the Spirit Medicine Pavilion and the Treasure Pill Hall... The price of medicinal pills in the Herb Medicine Pavilion is almost half of the price of other medicinal pill powers. The quality of the pills was also higher. After using them, there was no one who didn't cheer for them. You could tell this from the lively scene on the other side. As for the other medicinal pill factions, they are already out of sight. "
Han Feng nodded after hearing this. Indeed, from the prosperous scene on the other side, the Herb Medicine Pavilion branch in Iron Sword City was even more prosperous than the Herb Medicine Pavilion in Tianfeng City. What the waiter said made sense.
"It seems like the Herb Medicine Pavilion must have earned a lot." Han Feng casually said as he picked up the teacup on the table. The second young man nodded when he heard that. "You are right. The monthly profit. It's enough to cover the expenses of a Martial Lord Level for a few years."
Han Feng was shocked, but he pretended as if nothing had happened. He smiled and said, "Could it be that this little brother of yours is bragging on behalf of Herb Medicine Pavilion? How much is the cost of a Martial Lord Level? Could it be that the Herb Medicine Pavilion has over ten thousand Profound Spirit Stone profits in one month? "
"Don't doubt my words. No one else knows about this. But I do know that I have underestimated over ten thousand Profound Spirit Stone." The waiter explained hurriedly, causing Han Feng to look at him. " Then tell me, what is the exact number?"
When the young man heard that, his facial expression changed slightly, and he moved closer to Han Feng's ear, "Dear guest, let me tell you, you are not allowed to tell anyone about this, otherwise, if the people of Herb Medicine Pavilion knew about this, I'm afraid they would tear down my tea house."
" Of course I won't say anything. " Han Feng promised.
"Then I will tell you. Last month, the master of Herb Medicine Pavilion once came to my tea house and sat down. The people sitting next to him were also some powerful people in Herb Medicine Pavilion. I heard them talking about the profits of the Herb Medicine Pavilion. That number... It's about 100,000 Profound Spirit Stone. " The waiter said in a low voice, afraid that the people of the Herb Medicine Pavilion would hear him.
"One hundred thousand!" Han Feng's heart trembled. This was absolutely a crazy amount. It was very difficult for a Martial Lord Level to take out one hundred thousand Profound Spirit Stones. However, this was only the profits of a month in Herb Medicine Pavilion.
If what this little brother said was true, then the profits reported by the Iron Sword City branch would definitely be huge.
"Don't tell anyone else." This little brother was worried, so he continued to instruct Han Feng.
Han Feng smiled and said, "Don't worry. I don't know anyone in Iron Sword City. Who can I tell? This is the tea money. Thank you for your guidance."
Hearing Han Feng's words, the waiter was relieved. “ Actually, this was also for the good of you. In the current Herb Medicine Pavilion... Many Martial Lord Level powers are very popular in the Iron Sword City. Many of them are on good terms with the master of the Herb Medicine Pavilion. Two months ago, when the master of the Herb Medicine Pavilion was celebrating his birthday, there were actually ten Martial Lord warriors present at the same time. Even some of the Martial Lord who hadn't arrived yet had sent their direct disciples to congratulate him. The name of Herb Medicine Pavilion had become bigger and bigger."
"I understand. Thank you for the reminder." Although Han Feng still maintained his smile, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart. To be able to get so many Martial Lord warriors to come and congratulate him at the same time, this Second Master had really made a name for himself in Iron Sword City. Furthermore, the order given by the headquarters of Herb Medicine Pavilion was to let the Second Master temporarily assume the position of the Pavilion Master. However, judging from the current situation, it seemed like this Second Master wanted to increase his own strength in the Iron Sword City.
The waiter turned around and left to greet the other guests. However, Han Feng was deep in thought. What exactly was the purpose of the Second Master?
According to normal logic, if the development of Herb Medicine Pavilion was really so good... There was no reason for the Second Master not to report it to the headquarters. This was definitely a good thing to increase their performance. It was enough to make him stand out in the fight against the Third Master, but the strange thing was... He did not do it.
"The Second Master did not report the results. Then, the Profound Spirit Stone that had entered his account... The headquarters wouldn't know that all of these Profound Spirit Stones have entered the Second Master's pockets... " Han Feng thought to himself. No wonder the Third Pavilion Master suspected that there was something wrong with the accounts here. If they were to investigate, the Second Master would be a blatant corruption. Putting the benefits of Herb Medicine Pavilion in his own hands, not to mention the fact that the headquarters of Herb Medicine Pavilion would remove him. Even killing is possible.
However, some of the Profound Spirit Stone were nothing compared to the position of the Great Pavilion Master. Han Feng couldn't understand why the Second Master would do such a thing. Given the shrewdness of the latter, it was impossible for him to not understand the importance of the position of Pavilion Master.
Han Feng thought for a while and realized that if he wanted to investigate this matter, he still needed to enter the Herb Medicine Pavilion. However, he couldn't expose himself and needed to observe in secret.
Han Feng left the tea house and strolled out in a secluded corner. Han Feng took out a mask from the system and covered his face. He changed his face, unless it was someone extremely close to him. Otherwise, it was impossible to recognize him.
The Second Master had seen Han Feng before. If it had noticed Han Feng's arrival, this would not be beneficial to Han Feng. Furthermore, he had caused some disturbance in the eastern region earlier, although it was quite far from here. It was better to be cautious.
Han Feng, who had changed his face, stepped into the Herb Medicine Pavilion. The decorations here were even more luxurious than the Herb Medicine Pavilion in the Tianfeng City. Even some of the guards were Minor Genuine Martial Stage Level Three warriors, and there was an endless stream of Expert of Earth Energy Stage warriors coming and going. There were even a lot of Expert of Celestial Energy Stage.
"The Martial Cultivator in the Iron Sword City is indeed stronger than the ones in the Tianfeng City. Even the branches of the Herb Medicine Pavilion are treated like this. Not to mention the Martial Lord Level. " Han Feng sighed deeply, although he had used the killing formation to deal with the people of Nian family and Yue Family. If all the Peak of Celestial Energy Stage warriors of these Martial Lord Level warriors came out at the same time, he was afraid that this killing formation could be broken in the blink of an eye, and it wouldn't be able to achieve the desired effect.
A Martial Lord Force could be passed down in Iron Sword City for a hundred years. In fact, some of the Martial Lord Force didn't only have one Martial Lord warrior. These Martial Lord Level warriors wouldn't be much weaker than the Falling Pavilion and the other major powers.
Han Feng walked around casually for a while and found that the medicinal pills and herbs sold here were much richer than those sold in Tianfeng City. However, the price of the pills was relatively cheap. Many of the pills were sold out as soon as they were put up for sale. The scene was extremely lively.
Of course, Han Feng was not surprised by this. Many people thought that only those with low cultivation would need pills. In fact, it was not the case. The stronger one's cultivation in martial arts, the more spirit energy one consumed when fighting opponents of the same cultivation level. They needed pills to replenish their spiritual energy. Furthermore, those with stronger cultivation in martial arts would gain more experience in martial arts. Naturally, they would also have a lot of enemies, so they would often prepare some pills. That was, they would have an extra life.
Hence, in a city where martial arts flourished, the status of the Pharmacist would be higher. The cultivation of the Second Master was not strong, but its alchemy skill was quite formidable. Otherwise, it would not be able to order these martial artists to work for him.
Han Feng walked slowly, appearing extremely casual. However, his gaze... But carefully observing the layout of this branch. Finally, he found a small door. Behind this small door... It seemed to be the interior of Herb Medicine Pavilion...
