Douluo: Yun Ming in the Spirit Hall Era

Chapter 296 Yun Ming is ill, a sick person who arrives on time

In the south of Yinchuan City, in the backyard of a large pharmaceutical factory.

A handsome middle-aged man wearing a silver-white brocade robe embroidered with intricate golden clouds, who looked like a powerful man, looked at a page of detailed drug report in his hand and spoke.

"I gave you so many samples, but this is the only thing you can do? It's less than a quarter of the original product's effectiveness!"

Hearing what the middle-aged man said, a group of middle-aged and elderly people below, who were also dressed in extraordinary clothes, had sweat on their foreheads and dared not say a word. Their waists, which were originally slightly bent, bent even lower. Only a man at the top, who was dressed in dark blue official uniform, leaned forward and spoke back.

"Your Highness, the formula, production process and procedures of this Soul Gathering Pill are extremely complicated. It is impossible to deduce it in a short period of time. The one in your hand was copied successfully by all the pharmaceutical families in our city, regardless of the cost, and after much effort to study the pharmacology and even testing the medicine on themselves."

It was only about a quarter of the efficacy, so to say it was a copy was already a big exaggeration. Putting aside the efficacy, the minimum cost of each fake pill they made was over a thousand soul coins, much more expensive than what the Po Yi clan sold. What the hell!

Hearing his subordinate's reply, Dai Bingjun, the prince of Xingluo and cousin of Emperor Xingluo, who was called 'Prince', raised his eyes, stared at the man in official uniform, and said with a smile on his face.

"Lord Luo, I am so sorry, the task I gave you is too heavy and the time is too short!"

Luo Shide, Lord of Yinchuan, who was called 'Lord Luo' by the prince, dared not admit what he said. He half-knelt on the ground and began to apologize.

"I have absolutely no such intention. Your Majesty, please understand."

Seeing the boss kneeling, the people in charge of the pharmaceutical industry dared not stand there anymore and also knelt down and apologized.

"We are incompetent, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Looking at his subordinates kneeling down, and his subordinates' subordinates, Dai Bingjun cursed inwardly, "Useless things." Looking at this situation, if he wants to complete the target, he can only rely on the results of the negotiation with the Po Yi clan.

Dai Bingjun said calmly.

"Alright, I believe in you, everyone, get up."

"You have a point. Since it cannot be replicated in a short time, let's prepare medicines in the fields we are good at!"

It was gently put down, and Luo Shide immediately led a group of his men to stand up and express his gratitude.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your consideration."

Dai Bingjun waved his hand, but before he could reply, he saw a man running quickly from outside the lobby and reporting to him.

"Your Majesty, the Patriarch of the Poyi Clan, Yang Wutian, has arrived!"

Dai Bingjun, Luo Shide and others were shocked: "!!!"

They had only been stuck with the medicine for a few days, and Yang Wutian, who was in Tiandou, came here?! This speed was a bit fast, and it scared them.

Dai Bingjun asked hurriedly.

“How many people did the other party bring?”

Send a confidant to reply.

"Including the clan leader, there are eleven people in total."

Dai Bingjun continued to ask.

"Has His Majesty Poji and the new number one in the world of the Pozhi clan arrived?"

The henchman shook his head.

"We haven't found anyone who matches those two. Except for Patriarch Yang, all the people who came are middle-aged."

Hearing that only a few people came, and they came so quickly, Dai Bingjun's mind raced. Does the other party's performance mean that their methods have really hit the pain point of the Po Yi Clan, otherwise the other party would not have come so quickly, and their strength is so weak. Then can we raise the conditions a little bit when we propose them?

As for whether the Po Yi clan would be forced into a corner and force them, he had never thought about it. First of all, he would know the right degree. Secondly, the class rules on the Douluo Continent were very clear. Because of the real existence of gods, the logic of divine right of kings was even more solid. Otherwise, the Xue family, with their strength, would not be able to sit firmly on the throne of the Tiandou Empire for so many years.

Apart from the Qian family, the spokesperson of the gods, other families, no matter how powerful they are, generally will not directly conflict with the royal family. With the so-called shackles, Dai Bingjun is very confident.

Dai Bingjun was not the only one who thought so. Luo Shide also thought so. He opened his mouth to congratulate him.

"The prince has a plan that is perfect. He saw through the weak spot of this broken clan at a glance."

Dai Bingjun laughed at the compliment from his men.

"Ha ha ha ha--"

"Come on, follow me to meet this newly promoted top powerful clan in the world."

As he said this, he took the lead and walked towards the door. Luo Shide and a group of people who had drug supply exchanges with the Pozhi clan and participated in this incident followed him.

In the reception room on the other side, Yang Wutan and his family were waiting for the arrival of the other protagonist of today's play, under the service of the waiters.

Soon, before the person arrived, the sound of greetings had already reached the reception room.

"I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person. Please forgive me, Chief Yang!"

"Squeak-"

The door was pushed open, and Dai Bingjun led a group of people into the reception room.

Seeing the other protagonist arrive, Yang Wutan and his group also stood up and greeted them.

"No, my clan came in a hurry and came here without handing in a visiting card. I am very grateful that Your Majesty does not blame us for being rude."

Dai Bingjun smiled and responded loudly.

"What are you talking about, Patriarch Yang? Your presence here brings honor to this pharmacy! How can it be considered rude? Patriarch Yang, you can come anytime you want."

"You said so, Lord Luo."

Hearing his boss' question, Luo Shide answered with a smile.

"Of course, the Poyi Clan has lived in Yinchuan City for quite some time. As long as the Poyi Clan is willing, this place will be your second home. We welcome Clan Leader Yang to come home at any time."

Yang Wutan forced a smile on his cold face.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, and City Lord Luo."

After that, they started chatting about family matters and gossiping.

When talking about things, you can't just state the main point right away, or it will be too inhumane and lack the art of pulling.

They recalled how good their cooperation was in the past, how close the relationship between the Po Yi Clan was, how Tian Dou and Xing Luo valued the Po Yi Clan after the changes in the continental situation, and how they wanted to win them over. While they were chatting in a friendly manner, Yun Ming also arrived at his destination.

Originally, he had no other plans, and was going to follow Yang Wutian to solve the problem, and then go to find the key to the final solution of the dead world. However, as soon as he entered the city, he sensed the aura of that key item.

When such an unexpected situation occurred, of course he had to investigate quickly, so the Po Yi clan went directly to find the real boss, and he left the team after leaving a specific mark among the Po Yi clan members, planning to reunite later.

Yun Ming followed his perception and came to an antique and magnificent mansion. Looking at the large characters written on the mansion, Yun Ming's eyes flashed. It was an acquaintance! Then Yun Ming stepped on the ground and disappeared as a shadow.

Yun Ming avoided the servants in the mansion and followed his perception towards his target, eventually arriving in front of a small courtyard that looked like the master's residence.

Without hesitation, Yun Ming flashed in. The magnolia bonsai was full of green leaves and fragrance. The gorgeous curtains and exquisite furniture complemented each other. It can be seen that the owner has good taste. However, Yun Ming obviously didn't pay much attention to this now. He had already seen his target. There was no hiding at all, just throwing it in the yard. Yun Ming was also full of emotion when he saw that he had found the clue so easily.

“It’s God’s will.”

On the other side, the few people who were chatting and gossiping had almost finished their conversation, and Dai Bingjun brought up the topic of the mainland's arms race and brought it back to the main topic of today.

Dai Bingjun said, "I feel very sorry."

"Patriarch Yang, speaking of this, I want to apologize to you. The volume of drug trade in Yinchuan City has increased significantly recently, and some buyers have even purchased at prices far exceeding the market price, causing the amount of drugs in the city to decrease significantly and drug prices to soar."

"Your Majesty specially sent me to stabilize the drug market. I didn't expect that even after stabilizing it, I can't even meet the drug supply needs of my long-term partners. This is really my dereliction of duty."

As he said this, he stood up and bowed to Yang Wutan.

"Regarding this matter, this king apologizes to the Pozhi clan!"

Of course Yang Wutan couldn't pretend not to see Dai Bingjun's performance of retreating to advance, so he quickly stood up and helped Dai Bingjun up.

"Your Highness is too polite. The situation on the mainland is like this. Your Highness does not need to blame yourself."

"I just entered the city and saw that many of the city's pharmacies were still open. The situation should have stabilized a bit now. I think it's all thanks to the prince."

"The situation in the city is much better now!"

Yang Wutian's implication was, 'Your Majesty has great governance skills. Now that you have stabilized the city's drug market, we should have medicine for our clan!'

Hearing Yang Wutian's words, Dai Bingjun was slightly stunned. Damn, the Po Yi people came too early, much earlier than the closing time he scheduled, and he didn't have time to close the store, which exposed a little flaw. But he is a politician after all, how shameless! He responded quickly.

"It's just a small achievement. It has only stabilized the prices of some common medicinal materials. The high-end market is still under control."

Dai Bingjun's implication was simple, 'We have low-end ones, but you, the Po Yi clan, want too high-end ones, so we still don't have them.'

Seeing that this man was so shameless, Yang Wutan didn't care and spoke again.

"Is that so? Then the prince is really hard-working!"

As he spoke, he gestured for Dai Bingjun to sit down.

The two men sat down again, and Dai Bingjun spoke righteously.

"No, for the sake of the empire's economy, I have no choice but to do it."

"Your Majesty is righteous."

Yang Wutan replied like this, and then said.

"However, Your Majesty, you know our tribe's main business now. Although it seems to be prosperous on the surface, without the supply of medicine, we will lose money if we have too many orders but nothing to deliver. We have already lost a lot of money and our tribe is under great pressure! So we need Your Majesty's help to find a solution. We will definitely remember this kindness."

He has seen the other party's attitude. He will not release the eagle until he sees the rabbit. So he can get to the point.

Dai Bingjun saw that the other party had hit the nail on the head, so he naturally had no objection and said righteously.

"Patriarch Yang, what are you talking about? This matter is our responsibility. It is wrong to let the nobles suffer such losses. How can we just ignore it?"

"Well, Patriarch Yang, if you have any urgent needs, you can tell me. I'll see if we can find a way to get some from somewhere else."

Yang Wutian didn't react, and casually threw out a piece of paper, which was the usual shopping list. They both knew that this list was only for the sake of appearance.

After getting the list, Dai Bingjun didn't even look at it and just threw it directly to Luo Shide.

"Lord Luo, you and the other leaders should think about it and come up with a plan! See if you can get it, how much you can get, and how much you want to pay?"

Luo Shide obeyed the order, took a few people in charge and retreated to "find a solution".

After they left, Dai Bingjun and Yang Wutian sat opposite each other and drank tea, waiting for the result. About ten minutes later, Luo Shide returned with his men.

Dai Bingjun asked, pretending to be ignorant.

"Lord Luo, how is it?"

Luo Shide replied respectfully.

"Your Highness, I have counted with the other officials. According to our existing channels, we can only get about half of the medicinal materials listed, but the total price is twice the usual price."

Hearing Luo Shide's words, the faces of the Po Yi people could not help but darken. Just by talking, they wanted to make four times the money from them. They were really black-hearted! Although Yang Wutian's expression did not change, he also cursed the other party for being greedy. You know, the amount they wanted to buy was not small, even a one-fold increase was not a small number, and now it has directly increased to four times. They are really being taken advantage of!

Dai Bingjun also had a gloomy expression and cursed loudly.

"What the hell, why is there such a price difference? Is someone trying to take advantage of the situation?"

"Tell me! How did this price come about? If you can't explain it, I will chop you down for disrupting the market!"

Dai Bingjun got angry, and Luo Shide and the others who were in charge immediately bowed their heads and hurriedly explained everything.

The reasons they gave were varied. One said that his channel was far away and there were many bandits on the road, so the shipping and protection fees were not small. Another said that his channel was out of stock and he had to find customers to buy it back at a lower price. Another said that the medicine he was looking for was very scarce now and that was the price in the market. Anyway, they used all kinds of excuses they could think of, and even Dai Bingjun, who was prepared in advance, was stunned by what he heard. If there had not been any follow-up arrangements, he would have been stunned by their information bombardment.

Dai Bingjun came back to his senses and saw that the answer was reasonable and well-founded, so he asked again.

"Then there is no way to lower the cost. The Poyi Clan suffered such heavy losses because of us. I feel guilty!"

Seeing that this smiling tiger was crying wolf and didn't say much, Yang Wutan just watched their performance quietly. He wanted to see how much the other party wanted.

Seeing that the time had come, Luo Shide also threw out the final alternative condition.

"Your Highness, there is a solution. The value of the Po Yi clan's elixirs has skyrocketed, and there is a big market for them. If the Po Yi clan can trade with elixirs, they will definitely be able to push down some of the price of the medicine."

The real purpose was revealed, just as Yun Ming and Yang Wutan had thought, they both wanted the elixir and the money.

Dai Bingjun asked again in a fake tone at last.

"Really, there is no other way?"

Luo Shide shook his head.

Dai Bingjun pondered for a moment and looked at Yang Wutan with a hypocritical look.

"Patriarch Yang, this is all I can do. I'm sorry!"

Yang Wutian sneered. What did he think? He wanted to shoot the bastards in front of him. But it was impossible! The royal family could not move lightly!
But he didn't do it, someone else did it. A terrifying soul force pressure came down with a bang, and the walls, doors, windows and furniture of the whole house were immediately suppressed by the pressure and shattered into pieces, including the wooden chair where Dai Bingjun sat.

Dai Bingjun wanted to resist, but the pressure was too great and he couldn't move, so he just sat on the ground.

"Clap clap clap-"

At this time, there were footsteps outside the door, and at the same time a young male voice sounded.

"Oh! Uncle, I can only control my soul power to this extent. I'm sorry."
