Creating a Different World - Chapter 2526

[Chapter 2526 Decision]

The mayor looked at Jia Zhengjin suspiciously, and after a while he asked, “If there really is such a good thing, why do you still need to sell the most basic physical potion? I think any high-ranking official in any city would be happy to purchase a large amount of this potion to interrogate prisoners or obtain intelligence from spies. Its value is far more than five hundred gold coins.”

“Of course, this prescription is a treasure that our family has always kept secret. It is actually priceless.” Jia Zhengjin sighed and showed a helpless expression, “It’s not that I don’t want to refine the truth potion, but the medicinal materials are too expensive and too rare! Of course, this is for me at the moment. If there are official resources, such as you or other people who have connections with local drug dealers, it is not difficult to get it. Right now we can’t use this formula at all. Instead, it is more important to open up wasteland and accumulate wealth bit by bit. In the future, when we have money and capital to buy medicinal materials, I think the mayor should give convenience and let us rejoin this business, right?”

“Of course!” The mayor said this, but he thought to himself: With such a good business, of course it is a monopoly. How could I let you join? It seems that this little girl is not smart enough to give out such a good thing. If it were me, I would never give it to others even if it rotted in my pocket! However, whether this potion formula is true or false must be verified before it can be confirmed.

“Mr. Mayor, I really don’t have anything else valuable, otherwise I wouldn’t have exchanged the treasures passed down from my ancestors.” Jia Zhengjin said, “If you think it’s appropriate, use it to exchange for 150 death row prisoners as slaves!”

“No, no, no!” The mayor shook his head quickly, “No matter whether this formula is true or false, one hundred death row prisoners are already the upper limit we can decide. Any more will not be appropriate! After all, if the higher-ups know about this, my friends and I will be in big trouble!”

“But Mayor, the potion formula I took out is worth far more than five hundred gold coins. It’s too much of a loss to exchange it for only one hundred death row prisoners!” Jia Zhengjin said, “At least give me some more, so that I don’t lose so much.”

“Ms. Mashi, this is a matter of principle, there is no way!” The mayor was firm, “Making money is a good thing, but we are not willing to pay with our lives for it!”

“Mr. Mayor, it’s just a few dozen more people, it’s not a big deal. You see, one hundred people are enough, what’s the problem with a few more?”

“Miss Mashi doesn’t understand. We really don’t dare to exceed one hundred people, because this number is within the acceptable range. Once it exceeds, it is very likely to attract an investigation from above.” The mayor replied, “This is not a joke. Once it is found out, we may lose our lives! So it is a maximum of one hundred people. We will never give in on this matter. If Miss Mashi feels that she has lost, maybe she can just bring five hundred gold coins over, and there will be no problem!”

Jia Zhengjin thought to himself, I have explained to you that there are not so many gold coins, only this formula. Now it sounds right to say this, but the mind is very bad.

However, without this kind of greed, it is impossible to sell the death row prisoner to himself, so he pretended to be entangled.

“Miss!” Zion was a little anxious, “Such a precious potion formula, we should keep it for ourselves, and the revitalization of the family in the future depends on it! The slaves can be bought later.”

The mayor was a little anxious when he heard it, thinking that if this formula is true, it is a magic weapon for making a fortune, and you can’t take it back.

Before he could speak, Jia Zhengjin sighed and said to Zion: “I know, but aren’t we short of manpower right now? We carry goods to the market every day, and the food stored at home is getting less and less. Without enough manpower to produce, how can we maintain it? And now it’s urgent. If we don’t hurry up, the great opportunity to make money will be gone. After so many years of suffering, I finally see hope. I don’t want to watch the opportunity fly away. We know how to make the truth potion ourselves. We can produce it without a formula. When we make money and have capital in the future, we can produce it on a large scale. I think the world is so big that the mayor can’t occupy all the markets. There will always be opportunities for us to make a fortune, right?”

Zion lowered his head and thought, and seemed to be persuaded.

Hearing this, the mayor thought to himself: If I want to get the formula, of course I will use all resources to continuously expand production. After making money, I will build a good relationship with my superiors, and I will be promoted continuously. Then I will use my power to expand until the business is operated nationwide, occupying all the profitable markets, and strive for all prisons and armies in the country to order my potion, completely monopolizing it, and becoming the richest man in the world. How could I give you a chance?

Of course, he still had a smile on his face: “Of course, not to mention that our Dawn Front is such a big country, there are so many countries and races in the world, the market is endless, how can I make all the money by myself? So there is no need to worry!”

“I believe the mayor!” Jia Zhengjin nodded, “It’s just the number of death row prisoners.”

“I said, this will never be increased!” The mayor said firmly, “Anyway, this is the condition. If you agree, our deal will be established. I will go to my friend and prepare this matter with him. If you feel you are losing money, then our deal will be canceled.”

“Is there really no more concession?” Jia Zhengjin pretended to be unwilling.

“There’s really no other way!” The mayor nodded, “So Miss Mashi, you’d better think it through.”

“I…” Jia Zhengjin looked back at the people he brought with him, and turned to the mayor after a while, “I really need manpower! Change! Just change a hundred death row slaves!”

The mayor was delighted and said immediately: “Miss Mashi is so courageous! This is the most correct choice. After all, you also have the formula in your hands, and the business is endless. Now you can make more money to have capital to do bigger business. However, before the transaction, we must verify the authenticity of the potion formula.”

“It should be!” Jia Zhengjin nodded, “In this way, if you can prepare all the herbs, I can make it for you on the spot. Don’t ask outside pharmacists or other people to come over. The fewer people know the formula, the better!”

Although it is a formula from another world, the system will automatically make some adjustments according to the current situation in the world, so there is no need to worry about not being able to find the herbs.

The mayor thought about it and felt that it made sense: “Okay! Please wait a moment, Miss Mashi, Kubo!”

“Here!” Kubo came over immediately.

“Go to the pharmacy and buy the herbs according to the formula, but remember to buy some other herbs and mix them together so that no one can see the combination.”

“Don’t worry, uncle, I’ll be back soon!” Kubo took the formula and looked at it carefully, recorded the ingredients for refining the mantra potion in his mind, and ran out quickly.
