As this happened, Wang Ce walked into the conference room and naturally heard Chen Shu's words.
His expression froze, and he said,
“No, the moment I walked in, I saw you kid acting like a bandit?”
“…”
Chen Shu turned his head and said sheepishly, “Uncle Wang, this is a legitimate collaboration…”
“You don’t look like you’re here to collaborate at all.”
Wang Ce shook his head and said, “Alright, go down first. How can you do business so crudely?”
“Isn’t it just paying money and getting goods…”
Chen Shu mumbled and returned to his seat.
“Little Chen was just joking with everyone earlier, you don’t mind, do you?”
Wang Ce sat at the very top. After all, it was his territory, so he naturally had the demeanor of a host.
“Of course not. Mr. Chen Shu is young and promising, so it’s reasonable for him to behave unusually…”
Those below chuckled in agreement, but their hearts were a little doubtful.
If the cooperation failed, would this guy just snatch it away?
Seeing this, Wang Ce smiled and nodded, then cleared his throat and said,
“Then let’s not waste any more time. Today’s cooperation meeting shall begin.”
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately sat up straight. Wasn’t the purpose of this trip precisely this?
“Little Chen, you introduce your potions.”
Wang Ce handed the initiative to Chen Shu, wanting to facilitate this cooperation. After all, the other party had helped his son, Wang Sheng, quite a lot.
“Actually, the effect of my potion is quite simple!”
Chen Shu coughed lightly and said, “The official channels have similar potions, and I believe everyone is aware of them. But from my understanding, the official potions are not very effective and have quite serious side effects!”
Back then, Qin Tian had taken an official potion to save him. Although he had instantly killed a contracted spirit of the same level on the spot, the attributes of his own contracted spirit had permanently decreased.
“But my potion is different!”
Chen Shu’s eyes held a look of confidence. He said, “Not only is the effect powerful, but the side effect is only slight weakness afterward, which can be recovered by taking a bit of life potion. Other than that, there are no other costs!”
One person raised his hand and asked, “That bandit… uh… Mr. Chen Shu, could you specify the effects?”
“This depends on one’s own strength!”
Chen Shu stroked his chin and said with some thought, “Below Gold, it can probably multiply your skill effects by ten times!”
As soon as he said this, everyone’s expressions drastically changed. Some even couldn’t help but stand up on the spot.
Ten times?! What a joke?!
“There’s no need to be surprised…”
Chen Shu smiled slightly and said, “Since I dare to call it Super Jin Kela, I naturally have the confidence behind it!”
“As for Beast Tamers at Gold rank and above, it can at least make your strength instantly become top-tier among the same rank!”
“For example, Uncle Wang Ce, as long as your Skyfire Tree takes a sip, its strength can directly soar to the peak of King rank, and it would be no problem to fight with the old principal. But don’t think about the old man, that’s not on the same level.”
“…”
Wang Ce’s mouth twitched. Let alone the old man, he wouldn’t dare to make a move on Principal Ning either…
“That’s all for the effects. There’s nothing else.”
Chen Shu smiled slightly and then added, “Also, the potion can be taken multiple times. There’s no need to drink it all at once.”
Someone asked, “Mr. Chen, is there a specific duration for the potion?”
“This…”
Chen Shu shook his head and said, “It also depends on one’s own strength. But one thing is certain, it can at least support one battle.”
He couldn’t give a definitive answer either, because his strength was constantly changing, which in turn caused the duration of the potion to change. There was no fixed value.
Everyone nodded, their eyes still filled with fervor.
Such a heaven-defying potion was naturally meant to be used in life-or-death battles, no less than a Beast Tamer’s second life.
“By the way, I have one more thing I’d like to ask.”
A man around thirty years old raised his hand and said thoughtfully, “Since it can be taken in multiple doses, if after each use, a bit of clean water is added, wouldn’t that be equivalent to an infinite potion?”
“???”
As soon as this was said, everyone’s gazes swept over in unison. Are you trying to exploit a loophole here?
“Uh… this is different from drinking beverages when you were little…”
Chen Shu’s mouth twitched and he said, “Besides, adding water to drinks also makes them weaker and weaker. What infinite drinking are you talking about!”
“Also, I’d like to remind everyone, it’s best not to add any other substances. The potion’s composition is a delicate balance. If you add clean water, it might disrupt the internal efficacy!”
Chen Shu had never had such a brilliant idea, so he naturally didn’t understand if adding water could allow the potion to be reused, but the probability seemed low.
He placed his hands on the table and asked, “Alright, does anyone else have any questions?”
Everyone shook their heads. They had a general understanding of the potion’s value.
Seeing this, Wang Ce nodded and said,
“Since everyone has no questions, let’s move on to the next topic, the price!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Shu spoke first.
“Since I am the seller, of course, I will state the price!”
Chen Shu smiled slightly and said, “For every bottle configured, my service fee is two pieces of Chaotic Star Leaf and ten thousand portions of low-grade materials!”
“This…”
As soon as this was said, everyone showed hesitation, as if they had something to say but dared not.
However, due to Chen Shu’s temperament, they didn’t dare to deny it on the spot.
Before the meeting began, Chen Shu had already informed everyone about the ingredients for the berserk potion, so everyone naturally understood the importance of the main ingredient, Chaotic Star Leaf.
“What? Is there a problem?”
Chen Shu frowned and said, “Calculated by price, it’s probably only around ten billion. Isn’t that too expensive?”
“Little Chen ah…”
Wang Ce coughed lightly and said, “The world is chaotic now, and the value of various beast-taming materials has increased quite a bit…”
Chen Shu frowned and said, “No way, this thing isn’t a basic resource.”
“Now that other countries and forces are being attacked by ferocious beasts, no Beast Tamers dare to venture into异空间 (Yi Kongjian - Alien Space) to hunt. The prices of materials have naturally skyrocketed. It’s a matter of scarcity driving up value.”
Wang Ce explained a little and then said, “Actually, the price is secondary. The key is the rarity of the Chaotic Star Leaf…”
“Hmm? Rarity?”
Chen Shu’s expression stiffened, and he looked a bit bewildered.
“Little Chen, let’s not hide anything from you.”
Wang Ce spoke first and said, “We, the King’s Beast Taming Group, and the Long family are the wealthiest. But even with the full effort of our entire group, I can only gather seven pieces of Chaotic Star Leaf, which means we can only configure two bottles…”
“So little?”
Chen Shu was slightly taken aback and expressed some surprise.
The King’s Beast Taming Group was the number one Beast Taming Group in the country, with various branches spread throughout the nation. Moreover, they were specifically in the beast-taming business and possessed immense strength, truly considered colossal giants!
But even so, they could only configure two bottles?
“Yes, bandit bro…”
A man below said, “Our Imperial Spirit Group and another group, after pooling our resources, only managed to get three Star Leaves. We really can’t afford your service fee.”
“Is that so…”
Chen Shu frowned. He hadn’t expected King-grade materials to be so precious.
His eyes darted, and he tentatively said,
“Well, if it’s really not possible, you can directly give me the materials, and I can even give you a fee for that…”
