CHAPTER 869: CHAPTER 845: SECRET FORMULA

"Nephew, come, come, you’re not wrong in what you say, but you also need to know that the Youthful Appearance Pill is different from other elixirs. It changes one’s appearance, but it can’t cure diseases or save lives. It’s really quite redundant, and forty thousand is really not a small amount."

Mr. Feng was speaking the truth. The Super-grade Youthful Appearance Pill sounds prestigious and certainly arouses enthusiasm, but its actual efficacy is greatly diminished.

Everyone fears death. If you have a pill that could save a life, no matter how expensive, someone would be willing to buy it.

But for a pill unsure of its effects on one’s face and to spend tens or even hundreds of thousands, not everyone is willing.

Such people are a minority.

Hao Zhigang still wanted to argue, but Jiang Xiaoxiao waved her hand.

Right now, they are still in a position to rebut; it’s just that they are weak.

What did the Hao family bring out?

"Eighty thousand, no room for negotiation! Mr. Feng, you can consider it. If it’s not suitable, we can ask across the street. You wouldn’t have any trouble selling a Super-grade Youthful Appearance Pill for a million if you organized a proper auction.

I suppose the price would skyrocket."

"Fifty thousand, that’s the maximum our Yixin Hall can accept, no more. After all, the pill’s efficacy lasts only a year. There aren’t many willing to put out fifty thousand for just a year. Miss Hao, don’t be greedy. Even if you go to the He family across the street, I doubt they could sell for a higher price than us at Yixin Hall.

Everyone in West City knows who Old He is, and Hao is native to West City and knows this better than I do."

"Eighty thousand! Non-negotiable."

Jiang Xiaoxiao didn’t budge an inch. The old fox was probably taking advantage of the Hao family.

As for the pill’s efficacy, she really didn’t know.

The Youthful Appearance Pill is such a letdown, with effects lasting only a year.

Selling for such a high price, it truly isn’t worthwhile.

The auction house here—Jiang Xiaoxiao’s purpose was still for the formula.

She had already figured out that by adding her peach juice to the formula, the effects were extraordinary.

The Medicine God Association’s spot was something Jiang Xiaoxiao was determined to secure.

Right now, the Hao family evidently wouldn’t catch anyone’s eye. Even with the Super-grade Youthful Appearance Pill, it was like cabbage to others.

Do as they wish.

"Fifty-five thousand, child, this isn’t a low price. Why don’t you go inquire?"

Mr. Feng retreated to advance.

Jiang Xiaoxiao got up and left.

"Hao Zhigang, let’s go."

President Feng saw it was falling apart.

He hurriedly stopped Jiang Xiaoxiao, realizing that she was not pretending but really leaving.

Didn’t see that little girl jump off the chair, following her mother closely.

Afraid of being left behind.

"Miss Hao, don’t rush, don’t rush. High asks require seated offers. Let’s talk, let’s talk. My father sometimes sticks to old ways. Of course, business needs to be discussed openly."

President Feng wasn’t willing to let the Super-grade Elixir slip away from them.

Though the old man talked in a righteous manner, inside, he was probably drumming up courage.

You know, by this time, our Yixin Hall isn’t just about making money; it’s also about reputation. If the Super-grade elixir were auctioned from our Yixin Hall,

that reputation could be world-renowned.

Pushing our rivals to an unfavorable position.

That significance is far more important than how much money is made.

"President Feng, 80,000 is already quite low. I believe this Super-grade Youthful Appearance Pill will sell at a much higher price compared to regular Youthful Appearance Pills, and even if it’s a bit more expensive, wealthy people would feel at ease using it.

Women, especially those from wealthy families, are willing to spend for their face.

If you think my asking price is high, I can talk with other people. Of course, if worse comes to worst, I can keep it until an auction. By then, I’m sure the price won’t just be 80,000."

President Feng laughed and said, "Alright, then I’ll make friends with Miss Hao. Eighty thousand it is, Miss Hao. How about this, as Yixin Hall’s owner, I’m straightforward. Just one condition: the Hao family’s Super-grade Youthful Appearance Pills should still be sent to us at Yixin Hall for sale.

Let’s maintain a long-term collaboration."

Jiang Xiaoxiao cupped her hands and smiled, "President Feng, no need for formalities. Rest assured, the Hao family will naturally continue to collaborate with you on the Youthful Appearance Pills."

She mentioned the Youthful Appearance Pill but didn’t refer to other things.

Jiang Xiaoxiao thought that with her peach juice, she might be able to make more elixirs.

At that time, she hoped the Feng family wouldn’t regret it.

Nineteen Super-grade Youthful Appearance Pills, totaling fifteen million two hundred thousand.

After Yixin Hall’s ten percent handling fee, thirteen million seven hundred thousand.

They rounded off the handling fee.

But Hao Zhigang still felt pained.

They were all greedy businessmen, but seeing Jiang Xiaoxiao holding that black card, his spirit was immediately lifted. The Hao family had hope.

Jiang Xiaoxiao casually flipped through the Yixin Hall catalog in her hand.

Sure enough, she found what she wanted; there were some secret formulas here.

The families selling these recipes must have found their effects not very significant.

Plus, other families on the market could easily make them, so they were just common goods, like tiger bone golden wound medicine for external injuries, Black Hair Pills, and cough suppressant pills.

Even though these medicines are ordinary common goods, everyone experiences headaches and colds.

These are often encountered in daily life; of course, when these pills are made, their efficacy is just average.

No one would spend a lot to make very expensive pills; otherwise, who would buy them?

Rich people wouldn’t spend money to buy high-end products for this.

The effects are almost the same.

But these are what Jiang Xiaoxiao valued.

There must be differences in effect; otherwise, how could Super-grade pills come about?

She would try it herself, and when the Hao family’s pharmacy opened, the Medicine God Association qualification application could be filed.

Just because the Medicine God Association requires that to apply for the lowest-level physician qualification, the family must have at least three pharmacies open, have level ten formulas, and achieve a monthly turnover exceeding fifty thousand to qualify.

They have level ten formulas but don’t have three stores for the Hao family now.

That prodigal squandered everything.

Only that small dilapidated storefront remained in Hao Zhigang’s hands.

So for this qualification, she put in every effort, selling all the Super-grade Youthful Appearance Pills to open three Hao family pharmacies overnight.

The fifty-thousand turnover relied on Jiang Xiaoxiao because it would be a daydream relying on the Hao family’s Youthful Appearance Pills.

There are only a few channels for Youthful Appearance Pill sales.

This was why Jiang Xiaoxiao was keen on these secret formulas.

But they’re really expensive.

An ordinary recipe costs two million.

Just for three recipes, nearly half of the money was gone.

Money is really hard to save.

Jiang Xiaoxiao had never worried about money her whole life.

Now she just started to get wealthy, just damn frustrating.
