“This Guan has something else to ask Brother Li today.” After discussing the store, Guan Haoran took out another box from his sleeve.

Li Tianyan took the box he handed over and opened it. Inside, the box was divided into nine grids, each containing different types of pills. A mixed and unpleasant smell wafted out, almost causing him to drop the box.

“These are the medicinal pills from that immortal cultivator. Brother Li, do you know what medicinal materials are used here? Was it harmful to our body?” Guan Haoran pointed to the pill box in Li Tianyan’s hand, expressing curiosity.

Hearing that these were medicinal pills made by that cultivator, Li Tianyan became energetic. He picked up one of the pills and studied it carefully.

“This pill uses medicine that can cool down the human body, plus a little cold grass. Because the amount is small, you can feel a chill in your body at most, which will dissipate quickly. Taking one or two pills of this type should be fine, but if it continues for many years, the body may develop cold poison,” Li Tianyan explained, pinching the medicinal pill in his hand.

The medicinal pills used some relatively uncommon drugs, and other pollen and spices were added to confuse the smell. It was indeed challenging for ordinary people to distinguish them. However, after inspecting these medicinal pills, Li Tianyan’s guess was strengthened.

The so-called Immortal cultivator was probably not a disciple of an elder but at most a runaway servant. This medicinal pill was quite crudely made, just a pill mixed with flour and kneaded. If the inner disciple an Immortal Sect was at this level, the cultivators here were too shabby.

Li Tianyan checked several other different pills one by one. Sure enough, some drugs with obvious properties were added to them. “A lot of people are taking these pills?”

“Because there are two disciples from the medicine family in Yuncheng this year who have joined Tianfan Immortal Sect, and people in Yuncheng now believe in the cultivator. So many children under the age of ten are starting to take these pills,” Guan Haoran explained, relieved that he had discovered it early, and a few cousins should be fine if they stopped using it in time.

Li Tianyan felt that this guy was very courageous. It wouldn’t take long for him to be discovered by doing this, but it was also possible that he was ready to evacuate at any time. “How much does his medicinal pill cost?”

“From going up the Zhenlan Peak to asking permission to buy medicine, my mother has to spend hundreds of thousands of taels every time she goes there,” Guan Haoran explained to Li Tianyan.

“Hundreds of thousands of taels…” Li Tianyan was almost shocked. He had painted talismans for days and nights, earning only tens of thousands of taels. These medicinal pills made from a few pieces of broken flour could be sold for hundreds of thousands of taels. It truly seemed like a lucrative business.

Li Tianyan thought for a moment, contemplating whether he should also have a high-level status, perhaps being picked up as a disciple by the elders of an Immortal Sect who were traveling, sounded appealing.

“Hundreds of thousands of taels might sound like a lot in Jincheng, but in Yuncheng, even an ordinary family can afford it. As long as a family’s disciple can enter Tianfan Immortal Sect, they’ll happily pay this amount,” Guan Haoran explained, helping Li Tianyan understand the context.

“It sounds like Yuncheng is really full of opportunities.” Li Tianyan considered the idea of taking Cheng Qi to Yuncheng after advancing to the fourth level of Qi Condensation.

Guan Haoran agreed, “It’s not just gold everywhere. There are several mineral veins around Yuncheng, and they are also connected to the endless forest. Semi-spiritual beasts can be found everywhere. As long as you dare to fight and take risks in Yuncheng, you’ll definitely make money.”

“I see.” Li Tianyan became more intrigued, especially by the mention of the endless forest.

“By the way, how are you planning to sell the medicinal pills, Brother Li?” Guan Haoran was suddenly curious about the pricing strategy for Li Tianyan’s medicinal pills. He was already considering buying some when they were available.

“I haven’t thought about it yet. I’ll ask Li Wu to send one to Young Master Guan after I make the list.” Li Tianyan had considered it before, but after hearing that a pile of flour could be sold for hundreds of thousands, he felt that the initial price he had in mind was too cheap, and he needed to raise it.

“I’ll wait. Brother Li’s medical skills are superb, so this medicinal pill will definitely be good,” Guan Haoran expressed his anticipation.

“I’ll give you this bottle of Yiyuan Pill. You can only take one pill a month,” Li Tianyan decided to reciprocate and handed a small medicine bottle to him. He felt a bit embarrassed the store for free.

Upon hearing that it was Yiyuan Pill, Guan Haoran immediately guessed its effect and carefully put it away. “Then I won’t be polite to Brother Li anymore.”

.

Not long after Guan Haoran left, Li Tianyan smelled the aroma wafting from the kitchen. The scent was clearly different from what Xiao Liu usually cooked.

Cheng Qi arrived at noon, walking into the main room with a plate of braised chicken. He cheerfully said, “Young master, it’s time to start lunch. Let’s try how today’s dish tastes.” He had already sneakily tasted a bit in the kitchen and found it delicious.

Li Tianyan glanced at the braised chicken on the table. It was indeed much better than what Xiao Liu had cooked before. “Is there something extra in the kitchen?”

Li Tianyan noticed something strange in the kitchen just now, but the smell of that thing was weak and had already been contracted by Cheng Qi, so he didn’t care too much.

“Sure enough, I can’t hide anything from the young master. In fact, it was Tan Eyu who helped me recruit the chef. He can teach me how to cook with Xiao Liu in the future. I just made a contract with him,” Cheng Qi scratched his face and spoke.

“Is this the little ghost Tan Eyu invited?” Li Tianyan said to himself. Last night he saw that Tan Eyu was not like an ordinary ghost. Now it seemed that it was true. With a soul-summoning technique, she was either a member of the third-generation royal family or possessed meritorious deeds.
