Chapter 1289 -34: Deal!

The attendant from Red Fragrance Alley who was walking outside turned back in shock, his face full of confusion.

He had been observing all along.

The boss not only gave Master Mu all respect but also paid a high price.

Why?

Is he trying to take a mile after being given an inch?

Just the thought of this made the attendant’s face turn unpleasant.

Yet, the old proprietor still greeted them with a smile.

“Is there anything Master Mu would require?”

He didn’t say what matter.

He said require.

In his words, he naturally placed himself in a lower position.

Hearing such words, Jason couldn’t help but feel admiration in his heart. Amidst everything else, it was this way of dealing with people that was beyond comparison.

Jia Youcai further examined the old proprietor.

‘To become the owner of Red Fragrance Alley, he indeed has extraordinary qualities.’

‘Not just this attitude, but also such poise.’

‘I am far behind.’

Jia Youcai silently thought.

At this moment, Jason already smiled and waved his hand.

“I wouldn’t call it a requirement, just want to purchase some ‘Secret Medicine’ and ‘Secret Martial Arts Techniques’ from Red Fragrance Alley.”

Jason didn’t conceal it.

Such matters aren’t worth hiding.

Ever since visiting the secret underground market beneath the Yuelai Inn, Jason had been full of anticipation for Red Fragrance Alley.

Hearing Jason’s words, the old proprietor smiled.

“Master Mu is already a guest elder of Red Fragrance Alley; you can buy Secret Medicine available at Red Fragrance Alley at a ten percent discount, but as for the Secret Medicine that can benefit the ‘Bone Tempering’ to its peak, Red Fragrance Alley doesn’t have any this month. I will reserve some for Master Mu from Zhoufu next month, as for ‘Secret Martial Arts Techniques’…”

Saying this, the old proprietor’s smile contained a hint of helplessness.

“Even in Red Fragrance Alley’s Zhoufu location, ‘Secret Martial Arts Techniques’ are scarce, mostly incomplete, making it hard to fully train ‘Tendons and Muscles’, and acquiring further Secret Martial Arts is even more difficult, not to mention Skin Training, which is a core family secret that absolutely won’t be passed outside, once it is leaked, it becomes an unending conflict, and at the crucial moment, every family head would choose to go down together, so there are no true ‘Secret Martial Arts Techniques’ in Red Fragrance Alley.”

The old proprietor sighed as he spoke.

Secret Medicine is rare.

Secret Martial Arts Techniques?

Even rarer!

Of course, the rarest are those with the talent to practice martial arts.

Although everyone seems able to train in martial arts, truly mastering ‘Tendons and Muscles’ are extremely few.

Even with the support of Secret Medicine, it’s the same.

Secret Medicine might stimulate Qi-Blood, accelerating one’s path to being a martial artist, but doesn’t instantly make one a martial artist.

Becoming a martial artist still depends on talent.

Unless money isn’t a concern, and one consumes Secret Medicine like candies to forcibly nurture a martial artist.

Or that truly heaven-defying ‘Great Medicine’.

However, it’s not just the rarity of such ‘Great Medicine’, even Secret Medicine aimed at ‘Skin Training’ is considerably rare in Red Fragrance Alley, their fully dedicated alchemist hasn’t reached that level.

Additionally, becoming a martial artist is not only about talent but also the martial techniques to be practiced.

The combination of both makes it exceedingly difficult.

If both were easy to obtain, Red Fragrance Alley’s development wouldn’t be so rocky.

With the yearly production of Secret Medicine, not to mention others, they could nurture over a dozen masters who have mastered ‘Tendons and Muscles’, although placing a dozen such masters in the Northern Capital or Shu Capital might be insignificant, in a place like Zhoufu or a county town, they wouldn’t need to tirelessly connect with the local powerhouses, government, and then pay the respective costs to open a business smoothly.

They could outrightly press forward.

They could intimidate some life-risking great thieves.

But it’s truly too difficult.

Even though the alley chief has worked hard, continuously cultivating martial artists belonging to Red Fragrance Alley, only two or three can become martial artists each year, placed in a city under Zhoufu, it’s still decent, but within Zhoufu it’s somewhat lacking, let alone in big cities like Northern Capital or Shu Capital, it is truly insignificant.

Thus, when this old proprietor found a martial artist with ‘Bone Tempering’ mastery + Innate Divine Strength, comparable to ‘Skin Training’, he spared no effort to draw them in.

If unable to nurture independently, they would bring them into their own faction.

Red Fragrance Alley had been doing this for years.

The result?

Pretty good.

At least the situation in various places has long since stabilized, silently developing for another decade, Red Fragrance Alley would have the opportunity to take another step forward as described by the alley chief, becoming a true major force akin to the Northern Li Family.

“Mr. Xu misunderstood; I just want to purchase a ‘Nourishing Essence Pill’.”

“As for Secret Martial Arts Techniques?”

“If available, it’s a bonus; if not, no matter.”

Jason said with a smile.

After consuming so much Secret Medicine, Jason already had a certain understanding of it.

Among the Secret Medicine he consumed, ‘Nourishing Essence Pill’ is undoubtedly the most cost-effective.

One ‘Nourishing Essence Pill’ provides 10 points of satiety, costing 100 Silver Coins.

While one portion of ‘Tiger Blood Strong Yuan Powder’ offers 50 points of satiety, it needs 1000 Silver Coins.

Not to mention ‘Ginseng Toad Pill’, which at 80 satiety points, requires 2500-3500 Silver Coins, if using this price to purchase ‘Nourishing Essence Pill’, it could buy 25-35 Pills, translating to 250-350 points of satiety.
