"I'm going to make pills," Xiaoyao went to the alchemy room, Fourth Prince originally wanted to stop him, but with Young Miss and Princess Ke Xin present, he was too embarrassed to be forceful again.
However, Fourth Prince proposed some conditions to exchange, but what he offered was only what he thought were very high conditions, such as:
"You make one batch for me, I'll give you one hundred taels."
"Thank you, no time."
...
The high-level pills Xiaoyao was about to make, if one batch came out with good results, let alone one hundred taels, even ten thousand taels would have people fighting for them.
He had already decided not to make those previous kinds of pills anymore, because Guxing didn't need them, he didn't need them either, besides giving them to Chi Chi as candy, they were completely useless to him.
In future, with high-level pills as backup, Guxing's progress speed would absolutely soar to the heavens.
Although Guxing hadn't yet reached the level to use high-level pills, Xiaoyao believed this time wasn't far away, described in four characters: just around the corner.
At that time, Fourth Prince would be just an ant, a pitiful ant.
...
"Fortune telling, medical diagnosis, feng shui reading, performing arts, manual labor, selling Great Strength Pills..."
In the capital of New Moon Empire, this was the famous commoner district night market, originally a small square, after who knows how many years of development, it had become a unique scenic line of New Moon's capital.
Here all kinds of people from three teachings and nine streams, all kinds of remarkable wanderers might appear, and because of this, some people who really couldn't find connections would also come here to try their luck, among these people were quite a few with noble status and vast wealth.
The more it was like this, the more lively this place became, more and more people gathered here, because there were many opportunities here, not to mention rising to prominence, at least one could make a living.
In such a place, phrases like the opening one were very common, almost every moment someone was shouting them, but those were all separate, combined together had never happened before, now there was someone shouting such a slogan.
This was a newly set up stall vendor, just arrived these past few days, and the stall owner was a youth, a very young youth, looking like he wasn't even eighteen yet.
Because of this, everyone completely didn't believe his slogan, at the same time this youth's prices weren't low, fortune telling once cost one tael of silver, feng shui reading required ten taels, medical diagnosis one tael but didn't include treatment, just diagnosis.
Great Strength Pills were ten taels of silver each, claimed to cure all diseases, strengthen the body if healthy, but who dared try, even if they wanted to try this price was too expensive.
Performing arts, he said he knew everything, one hour for one tael of silver, manual labor was the same.
While this youth was setting up his stall, he kept holding a book reading, occasionally shouting a slogan, if not for the special slogan, really no one would remember him, although he had written a banner with his slogan, but the banner wasn't big, the characters weren't big either, you had to notice him first to see this banner, or catch sight of it by coincidence.
Was this even doing business, could it be some rich young master playing here.
"Little brother, is your stall just for fun," a middle-aged man selling nuts nearby said, these past few days he had been paying attention to this youth, such a strange stall would be strange if it didn't attract attention.
At the same time, this youth would often buy his nuts to eat, almonds and walnuts.
Also, a small monster beast would sometimes appear beside this youth, looking cute, those who could raise such small monster beasts were generally from wealthy families, poor people couldn't even feed themselves, why raise pets.
Moreover, the clothes this youth wore weren't what ordinary people wore, both material and workmanship were very good, just this workmanship alone would cost quite a bit.
On this continent, tailors' skills were worth more than fabric, workmanship and tailoring were valued more than material, of course good tailors wouldn't use too poor materials.
Because of this, everyone even more felt this youth was like some wealthy young master here to play.
"No, although I'm here to earn extra money temporarily, I'm also very serious," that youth put down his book, his expression very serious, making people unable to doubt his sincerity.
But the middle-aged man still didn't believe, because this matter itself was hard to believe.
"If you say you're serious, then you should seriously do what you know, this way won't work," the middle-aged man kindly reminded.
"I am doing what I know, otherwise how would I do business," that youth corrected.
"... You're saying you know everything written up there?" the middle-aged man was silent for a while, then asked dumbly, immediately his face showed disbelief.
"Yes, I know them, although I can't guarantee being the best, I'm still pretty good," the youth answered and added a sentence.
"Oh, so that's how it is..." the middle-aged man seemed to understand, mastering these things was very difficult, but knowing a little of each wasn't hard, in this place many people knew a bit of everything, weren't specialized.
If that was the case, this slogan could be understood, also wasn't worth finding strange anymore.
"Boss, buy some pine nuts."
"Coming..."
The middle-aged man had business, so he stopped paying attention to the youth, the youth began reading again, this was also a strange thing about this youth, every day he carried a bag of books, every day he was reading.
Liking to read was good, how much could one read in one night, bringing one or two books per day was enough, was there need to carry such a big bag.
"Fortune telling, medical diagnosis, feng shui reading..."
A passing young lady was stunned when she saw this banner, she looked at the youth, the corners of her mouth showed a smile.
"Hey hey, you all come quickly, look at this stall, too interesting..."
"What? What?"
At the young lady's call, a group of young men and women gathered in front of the youth's stall, and this group of young men and women were all dressed as wealthy nobles, should be children of powerful families in the city, and generally those who could be in the imperial capital probably had pretty high status.
This group of young masters and misses also had quite a reputation here, because they often appeared here to play, offending them would definitely be terrible, but getting rewards could make small fortunes, risks and opportunities coexisted.
Therefore, regarding this group, everyone both loved and hated them, but wouldn't reject them, even hoped they would come find themselves, most people felt they would be the lucky ones.
Because of this, when everyone saw this group surround the youth's stall, what they first expressed wasn't sympathy but a kind of jealousy, they were all thinking, why didn't this group approach their own stalls.
Then they all began cursing in their hearts, cursing the youth, this group was here to cause trouble.
People would always be jealous and envious, what they couldn't get, they would curse others not to get either, otherwise their psychology would be very unbalanced, even uncomfortable.
But thinking carefully, did this have any loss for them.
This was one aspect of human nature, not many people could see through it.
"May I ask, are you here for fortune telling, medical diagnosis, or feng shui reading?" the youth looked at a young lady sitting in front of him, he put down his book, then with a smile asked very politely.
"Bah, you're the one here for medical diagnosis," the young lady spat, her face showing slight anger, however this made people feel she was even cuter, making the middle-aged nut seller nearby infatuated for a moment.
"Hehe, sorry, first time doing this business, my speech isn't very smooth," the youth scratched his head, laughing honestly.
"Not smooth speech doesn't matter, don't let your brain be not smooth too, if I let you diagnose illness, can you really diagnose illness?" the young lady said disdainfully, obviously she felt the youth's stall was just flashy but impractical, the things written above, this youth couldn't possibly do.
"I can, as long as it's what I know, I can do it all," the youth answered a very classic phrase, making people nearby first stunned, then burst into laughter.
"Haha, right, what you know you can do, what you don't know naturally you can't," the young lady began laughing, laughing like flowers swaying in wind, as if encountering the funniest joke, or this was the funniest joke she had encountered.
Although the young lady's laugh was somewhat exaggerated, it didn't hinder her cuteness and beauty at all, the middle-aged uncle nearby became even more infatuated.
Not to mention the middle-aged uncle, even the young masters who came with the young lady were infatuated, they hadn't seen this young lady's smile for a long time, at least this kind of smile hadn't been seen for a long time.
Although the youth in front might be a fraud, they also felt this youth had done something good.
"Yes," the youth nodded, very naturally acknowledging the above statement.
"..."
Everyone was speechless for a moment, this youth was too interesting, others' words were clearly mocking, he actually just nodded acknowledging like this, as if answering something very ordinary.
"Interesting, Xiao Ai let me try first," a young master smiled, coming to the stall front, looking at that youth.
"Good," the young lady called Xiao Ai stood up, giving way to that young master.
"This young master, which one would you like to try?" the youth asked, he also didn't mind the other party's wording, this wording clearly looked down on his level.
Perhaps this youth really was just trying to make a living, perhaps this youth was just playing, perhaps...
"Just the first one, fortune telling, see how I am?" that young master said indifferently.
"Fortune telling costs one tael," the youth didn't immediately start, but first asked for money, this was his rule.
"... Fine, here's five taels, I don't have change," the young master was stunned, then somewhat unhappily gave money, he previously thought Xiaoyao was good, but that was only limited to Xiaoyao being able to amuse that Xiao Ai.
"Five taels, I can give you a complete reading," the youth put the five taels of silver in his bag, saying indifferently.
Damn, this way he earned five taels, really no justice. The middle aged man thought.
