Cultivation Pet Shop
120 Chapter 120: Come work for me
Elder Hua suddenly raised her fist again, but thinking of how painful it was just to kick Lin Fan, she hesitated to punch out.
Yang Yun quickly came forward to grab her master's arm as she shouted, "Master, what are you doing? Didn't you say that we needed to be polite?"
Elder Hua pouted her lips and muttered, "I don't know why, but it just feels like he's thinking something rude."
Lin Fan revealed an awkward look since he was indeed thinking something rude, but he quickly put up his hands to surrender as he said with an awkward smile, "I'm sorry, for being rude earlier. I have some free time now, how about we discuss the business you came to discuss?"
Elder Hua's mood brightened after hearing this, "Getting straight to the point, I like that!"
Then she came forward and said, "Your pet food, how do you make it?"
Lin Fan was surprised by how direct she was, but then he said with slightly knit brows, "I'm sorry, but that is a secret. You can't just expect me to give out my recipe and lose all my business, right?"
Elder Hua just waved her hand, "I don't want your recipe, just show me how you make it. I can tell that making something like this doesn't just depend on the ingredients, it's your skills I want."
Lin Fan couldn't help revealing a smile at this. He wasn't even the one who made this, it was all made with the machine from the system. He could show them how he made this pet food, but he was also sure that it wasn't what they wanted.
Until he had finished training in the alchemy skills that the system had given him, he wouldn't be able to teach them a thing.
Lin Fan just said, "That is still a secret of this shop, unfortunately I can't share that with you either."
But Elder Hua wouldn't give up, "I knew that you would say that as well, so work with our Alchemy Tower instead. Our Alchemy Tower is the best known supplier of pet food in this city and that fame comes with its privileges. We have access to the best ingredients, the best equipment, and the best recipes because everyone knows of our fame. Moreover, it doesn't seem like your store is doing well, the fame of the Alchemy Tower can help you change that."
Elder Gu didn't forget to add, "With your level of skills, I'm sure you can become one of the ten elders, no, the eleven elders in no time. Maybe you could even one day break through the Legendary Alchemist Realm with the resources of the Alchemy Tower."
Lin Fan was a bit tempted by their offer, especially with how many poor reviews of the store there were online, but the system clearly didn't accept this.
But before Lin Fan could even answer, there was someone else who had walked in.
It was a stoic looking man who seemed to be in his early fifties with a thin moustache that hung down from the sides of his lips.
When this man came in, Elder Hua and Elder Gu immediately knit their brows together.
What was this man doing here?
That man came over to Lin Fan and looked him over before saying, "So you're Owner Lin."
Lin Fan raised a brow and asked, "And you are?"
The man gave a chuckle before saying, "You beat and humiliated my son yesterday, but you don't even know who I am?"
Lin Fan knit his brows when he heard this.
The man then continued, "I'm Elder Chen, one of the ten elders of the Alchemy Tower like the two of them. Now, how are you going to compensate me for what happened yesterday?"
Lin Fan's brows knit even deeper when he heard this as he asked, "Should I compensate you for something? Shouldn't you be thanking me for helping you teach your son a lesson?"
Elder Chen just narrowed his eyes to look at Lin Fan for a bit before suddenly breaking out in laughter, "I like your style."
Then he stopped laughing and said in a serious voice, "All can be forgiven, but you have to come work for me."
Before coming here, he had naturally sent his own informers to scope out this shop. Moreover, when he had come in, he had smelled the scent the pet food was giving off. Under his calm exterior, his emotions were close to erupting like a volcano.
But the 100% purity pet food was just icing on the cake, the most important thing was the Mu Family.
The Mu Family had always been neutral in the struggles of the Alchemy Tower, but lately it seemed like they would be leaning towards Elder Hua and Elder Gu's side with how close the young Mu was with Elder Hua's disciple.
But now that all changed with this new variable that had just appeared.
He was strong and possessed strange things which meant that he clearly had a strong backing behind him. Moreover, the Mu Family even gave him this store, which meant that he must have some special connection with him.
Seeing that Lin Fan's was silent, Elder Chen thought that he was tempted so he added, "If you work under me, I can guarantee that you'll have the full support of the Alchemy Tower, including the Alchemy Master."
The crowd outside gasped when they heard this.
The Alchemy Master was the renowned ruler of the Alchemy Tower, everyone wished for a chance to just meet him.
Lin Fan still didn't say anything, so Elder Chen added, "I could even get you a spot as the Alchemy Master's apprentice, that is something everyone dreams…"
Then before he could finish, Lin Fan suddenly said, "I'm not tempted by this at all, I'm just curious what you are thinking."
Elder Chen's face became ugly for a split second, but he quickly restored his calm look before saying, "You're new to Green Wood City, so I'm sure you don't know this. The Alchemy Tower is one of the two powers of Green Wood City, it would be smart to fall under me."
Elder Hua revealed a sly look before coming out to say in a righteous manner, "Owner Lin, don't be fooled by him! He clearly just wants to take your special method for making 100% purity pet food for himself!"
Once these words were said, there were shocked gasps and confused looks that came from the crowd.
For the normal people, they had no idea what this 100% purity thing meant, but the alchemist in the crowd had clear ideas.
These alchemists weren't at the same level as the elders, so they couldn't recognize the signs right away. There were some that had been here yesterday and had even missed the signs after looking at the pet food.
But now that they knew what they were looking for, these alchemists quickly found the signs of 100% purity in these bags of pet food.
"This, this, this, it really is 100% purity!"
"Has anyone ever achieved this since the age of the Alchemy God?"
"How could I have missed this yesterday? The signs were all here!"
Seeing the reaction of these alchemists, the crowd could tell that something was off here. Some people in the crowd began asking the alchemist friends they had come with what this meant.
When refining either a pill or pet food, there would be impurities that would be inside the pill or the pet food based on the recipe, the technique, or the equipment. Only by perfectly refining every drop of medicinal power in the ingredients would one be able to achieve 100%.
The wall between 99% and 100% was not a small one, it was like the gap between heaven and earth.
Just that 1% meant a difference of several hundred folds. With even 1% impurity, it meant that the full potential of the ingredients couldn't be unlocked. Only with 100% purity could the medicinal power of the ingredients combine to create a total that was far greater than the sum of its parts. It increased the effect of the pet food or the pill by several hundred folds.
Some people who had been at the Alchemy Tower yesterday began talking.
"So he fed that dog 100% purity pet food, it was no wonder that dog suddenly broke through!"
"That dog really is lucky!"
"This store really might not be a scam after all. It's selling pet food that could be easily auctioned for over twenty thousand crystals at only two hundred crystals per bag, this is a steal!"
"I have to buy some for my pet before everyone else finds out."
These words quickly spread through the crowd and soon the crowd entered a ferver, but still no one dared to enter while the elders were still here.
Elder Hua just looked at Lin Fan with a smile like she was waiting for thanks from him. Since she couldn't convince Lin Fan to work with them or keep the secret of the 100% purity pet food, the next best thing she could do was make him owe her a favour by helping him advertise his shop.
Even though she looked like a cute and innocent girl, she was actually quite the sly fox.
