    “After attaining the Nine Revolution Golden Core, my speed of alchemy clearly sped up significantly. At my current pace, if I don’t eat, drink, or sleep, I should be able to craft three hundred Nourishing Face Pills in one day and barely manage two thousand in a week. That quantity is far from enough...”

    Su Xing refined elixirs while pondering.

    “Regardless, let’s make them first and talk later. Being able to stockpile more elixirs always means selling them for more money!”

    Thus, in the following week, Su Xing crafted elixirs day and night, sustaining his stamina with Fasting Pills and not sleeping for seven consecutive days.

    Finally, after seven days, Su Xing had crafted a total of one thousand Nourishing Face Pills, three hundred superior Nourishing Face Pills, and eight hundred Wound Healing Pills.

    This pace was barely achieved after Su Xing’s strength broke through, squeezing out his very last bit of energy.

    After seven days, Su Xing, sporting a pair of dark circles, couldn’t stop yawning.

    Continuously crafting elixirs for seven days and nights, expending a great deal of mind and physical strength, it’s fortunate that Su Xing was a Golden Core Stage cultivator, or he would have died from exhaustion long ago.

    Looking at the small pile of elixirs in his storage ring, Su Xing revealed a satisfied smile.

    “Including the few hundred elixirs I saved up before, I now have three thousand elixirs in my hands. Although that’s not enough to acquire the Lingyun Commerce Guild, it’s only sufficient to give it a try for now!”

    Su Xing took out his phone to send a message to Jin Congxue, setting up a time to meet.

    Half an hour later, the two arrived at the villa, having ordered dinner in advance, ready to eat while talking.

    Jin Congxue, seeing Su Xing’s appearance, was stunned for a moment, and with confusion she said,

    “I haven’t seen you for a few days, and you somehow look even better—strange, there’s just a sense of being kidney-deficient.”

    Su Xing rolled his eyes at the remark. Looking better was due to the effect of his talent, while the kidney-deficiency was entirely because of night-long alchemy sessions!

    Soon, the servants delivered the luxurious dinner they had ordered. Su Xing hadn’t eaten in days, and although the Fasting Pills ensured his stamina, he couldn’t help but feast upon seeing the lavish dinner, wildly stuffing a large chicken leg into his mouth.

    Watching Su Xing’s unapologetic eating, Jin Congxue rolled her eyes and passed him a napkin, teasing him,

    Jin Congxue patted her generous figure and rolled her eyes as she spoke:

    “Su Xing, you really don’t understand the business world at all! Coming up with two hundred billion in cash, even for the Jin Merchant Guild, would be difficult. Typically, acquiring an industry is done through asset swaps or incremental buying.”

    “With the Tarot Society’s current thin spread of industries, asset swapping is out of the question, but incremental buying is entirely feasible! For the first installment, just one-tenth of the total capital is enough, which is twenty billion!”

    Upon hearing this, Su Xing nodded slightly and took out a bottle of elixirs from his storage ring, saying:

    “Here are 1,500 Nourishing Face Pills, 500 premium Nourishing Face Pills, and 1,000 Wound Healing Pills, which are my last in stock. Afterwards, I’ll provide over 1,500 elixirs each week, so try to acquire Lingyun Commerce Guild as soon as possible.”

    Jin Congxue was stunned to see Su Xing take out so many elixirs in one go.

    The elixirs in Su Xing’s hands were worth 35 billion Great Xia Coins!

    Moreover, Su Xing had said that he could supply 1,500 elixirs each week, which meant at least 15 billion in value each week.

    “Goodness, you’re practically a walking printing press!”

    Jin Congxue was somewhat surprised but then thought for a moment and said:

    “I had originally planned that we should at least take over Lingyun Commerce Guild’s industry sector in equipment trading. But now, seeing the speed at which you make money, we can completely swallow up Lingyun Commerce Guild!”

    Seeing Jin Congxue in such an excited state, Su Xing laughed and nodded, but he hesitated inwardly and said:

    “However, the initial capital of thirty-five billion might not be enough for the acquisition, and it doesn’t seem quite right to directly use elixirs to buy Lingyun Commerce Guild...”

    Hearing Su Xing’s words, Jin Congxue giggled and said:

    “Have you forgotten who I am? The young miss of the Jin Merchant Guild, I do have some clout! Of course, we won’t be trading the elixirs directly. I’ll first deposit these elixirs in the Jin Merchant Guild, getting a loan of thirty or forty billion shouldn’t be a problem!”

    “Then, I’ll negotiate the acquisition as the heir of the Jin Merchant Guild, using the guild as a guarantor! With this brand name, although the initial tens of billions might seem a little less, as long as you can provide a batch of funds each month, completing the entire acquisition within half a year won’t be a big issue!”

    After hearing this, Su Xing was once again moved.

    He finally understood how Jin Congxue had managed to acquire Lingyun Commerce Guild within a year in the simulations; with the top-tier Jin Merchant Guild as a guarantor, Lingyun Commerce Guild was naturally reassured.

    “Jin Congxue really is my benefactor. Without her, the development of the Tarot Society would’ve been so much slower...”
