#675 - Chapter 675 I’m Afraid You’ll Fake It
"Is that really necessary? What's this? Are you planning to reuse the syringes?" Gu Qingyi looked at him with disdain.
"Afraid you'll steal them! Afraid you'll fake them! Is that so hard to understand?" Liu Feiying retorted.
"Fine, I agree!" Gu Qingyi was too lazy to argue further.
With a 70% profit margin on a 10 crystal core potion just by providing the distribution channels, why would I bother faking anything?
"That's settled then. I'll arrange a communication team here, is that alright?"
"No problem," Gu Qingyi agreed.
Without a communication team, it would be extremely inconvenient if the two sides couldn't connect.
… …
The miraculous effects of the 'divine water' had already caused a sensation in various bases, with everyone waiting for the Chamber of Commerce to issue an official announcement.
Gu Qingyi went to the various unsealed bases to deliver the news, stating that official sales would begin in two days.
However, there was no activity in the bases sealed off by the Mani Sect.
"Little Chen, do you think Gu Qingyi will start online sales in those bases controlled by the Mani Sect?" Old Qin asked.
"No," Dongfang Chen replied.
"So certain? What's the reason?"
"Firstly, those places don't completely listen to her commands. Secondly, it's better to avoid trouble. Regardless of whether the potion is as miraculous as they say, Gu Qingyi won't do it," Dongfang Chen explained.
"That's true. Then let's see how they respond later!" Old Qin said.
In his opinion, it was somewhat of a pity.
It would be best if they could have internal strife.
"You can't wrap fire in paper. Just watch, those bases will fall into chaos sooner or later, it's just a matter of time," Dongfang Chen added.
… …
Two days later, June 24, 2058 AD.
Large quantities of potions were transported from Bartow City and distributed to various open bases.
This was the usual route for Huatong Chamber of Commerce deliveries, and the team members were familiar with it.
Although the branches of the Huatong Chamber of Commerce in these places had severed contact with headquarters, they were still operating, albeit independently.
The entrances of the Chamber of Commerce were already packed with people, with many having been queuing for two consecutive days.
Dongfang Chen's requirement was: open the seal in person, inject in person, and recycle the container in person, and only those who are willing to inject.
Therefore, there were two groups of people at the injection sites: local branch staff responsible for the injections, and people sent by Dongfang Chen to supervise.
The purpose of this wasn't to prevent counterfeiting, but to prevent hoarding.
The effects of this potion haven't been fully realized yet, so it's not a big deal. Once they are, it will be a matter of life and death.
Ever seen a potion that changes fate with a single injection? 10 crystal cores per dose, take a look.
If the Mani Sect has the potion in their hands at that time, they can prioritize cultivating their own people, which wouldn't be fun.
Fortunately, the potion takes three to five days to take effect. By then, most of the people who are supposed to be injected will have been injected, and the scene will be interesting.
The next day, some people with better constitutions began to react.
They had successfully condensed crystal cores in their bodies and become first-order cultivators.
"It's done! I did it! Hahaha, it's true, it's really true!" The person who successfully advanced laughed maniacally.
The same scene was playing out in dozens of open bases, and Gu Qingyi soon received the news.
"What? What did you say? Someone succeeded? And quite a few?" Gu Qingyi couldn't believe her ears.
Could a potion costing 10 crystal cores really defy fate?
Was this reasonable?
If it was really that amazing, then it would be an unprecedented wonder drug! Selling it like cabbages? What on earth is the council doing?
Gu Qingyi couldn't understand.
"Could it be Dongfang Chen?"
But even if it was Dongfang Chen, he had no reason to do this!
Don't even mention 10 crystal cores, he wouldn't have trouble selling it for 100,000 crystal cores!
Gu Qingyi didn't realize that the answer she was looking for was hidden in the question. Dongfang Chen decided to sell it for 10 crystal cores because a higher price would make it unaffordable for many.
Especially ordinary people who want to change their fate, their desires are the strongest.
Three more days passed, and basically everyone who was supposed to be injected had been injected.
Except for the elderly over 70 and children under 16, almost everyone had received the injection.
The full force of the medicine finally kicked in.
One person after another successfully condensed crystal cores, and these bases were immediately plunged into a cultivation frenzy.
Someone spread the news that the cultivation method was hidden in the 'Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine'. This news spread like wildfire, and for a time, paper in Luoyang became expensive.
At this point, Gu Qingyi finally lost her composure.
The dozens of ordinary residents she had people tracking 24 hours a day had all entered the Qi Refining stage, without exception.
What did this mean?
This meant that it really was divine water, and the effects were 100% effective!
The effects mentioned in the announcement were actually real!
Gu Qingyi was stunned.
Was this still the world she knew so well? How did everything suddenly change from a certain day?
"No! I must contact Liu Feiying quickly and get some potions over here!" Gu Qingyi suddenly realized.
The potions were opened and injected on the spot. Every day after the procedure, they would be taken away directly and never stay overnight in the area.
Therefore, Gu Qingyi didn't have a single potion in her possession.
