Transmigrated Scoundrel's Exchange System



The Ning Clan's rise to power was largely due to a level six Master Alchemist. This Master Alchemist not only contributed to the clan's wealth through his profound alchemical skills but also brought prestige and honor to the Ning Clan. He was able to concoct extraordinary pills, some of which could aid in cultivation breakthroughs or even save lives at critical junctures.

However, a few hundred years ago, the Master Alchemist had gone into seclusion for unknown reasons. Just like the Guo clan, which was on the decline, the withdrawal of the Master Alchemist was a significant blow to the Ning Clan. Without his skills, the clan's ability to produce high-grade pills diminished drastically. The quality and range of products in the Ning Alchemy Stores began to decline, and the clan's income had suffered considerably.

The Ning Clan had to rely on external Alchemists to keep their business running, but these Alchemists couldn't match the expertise and skill of their Master Alchemist. The clan's reputation took a hit, and their once thriving business began to falter.

Despite the challenges, the Ning Clan managed to persevere. They continued to operate the Ning Alchemy Stores, albeit with a reduced product range and lower quality pills. The clan members worked tirelessly to keep their business afloat, hoping for the day their Master Alchemist would come out of seclusion and restore their former glory.

The Ning Clan patriarch, in his clan's main city known as Ning City, was sitting in his meditation room when suddenly a beautiful woman materialized in front of him. The woman was dressed in all black, and she looked like a heavenly beauty.

The patriarch opened his eyes and looked at the woman for a while. He knew this woman was powerful. To be able to appear in his meditation room without making any noise or without alerting the clan array, she must be really powerful.

He got up from his meditation cushion and bowed to the woman, saying, "How can I help you, fairy?"

The woman moved her hand and a letter and pill bottle appeared. She tossed the items towards Patriarch Ning Jia, who caught them deftly. When he looked back towards the woman, he found that she had disappeared.

Patriarch Ning Jia opened the letter and read through it. After reading the letter, his eyes stayed wide for a very long time. After a while, he finally came back to his senses and opened the pill bottle. The smell of medicinal herbs permeated the meditation room.

Being in the business of pills, he had seen many types of them. Just looking at the pill, he knew it was the real deal – a high-potent Longevity pill. He sweated profusely, realizing what had just transpired, and hurriedly left his meditation room.

Three days later, an urgent meeting was called in the Ning Clan. Being four times the size of the Yan Clan, the Ning Clan had more than a hundred elders.

All the elders of the clan were called for this meeting. Many who were away from the city flew hurriedly to arrive at the clan's main city, as the patriarch had called them personally, telling them the meeting was of critically importance.

Right now, the hall of the Ning Clan was filled with all the elders, with the patriarch sitting at the center seat.

Seeing thst everyone had arrived, the patriarch said, "You all might be wondering why I called an urgent meeting, but something has come up which is related to the future of our clan. I needed your opinions and suggestions on whether we should go ahead with it."

After saying this, he stayed silent for a while before he spoke again, "I was contacted by a hidden Alchemy Clan. They have a Master Alchemist who can concoct a large amount of high-grade pills such as Longevity pills. The hidden clan needs resources to nurture their Master Alchemist. Seeing our decline in business, they offered us a deal. They will supply us with one thousand high-grade pills on a monthly basis. The pills included are Soul-Nurturing, Longevity and many other pills that are in-demand. For each pill, they will charge a hundred thousand medium-grade spirit stones in advance, and later, once the pill is sold, we will have to give them thirty percent of the profit. They also mentioned if we can sell those Longevity pills and the other pills, if we need more, they will be able to provide more pills. They are not just partnering with our clan but with a few other clans like us, offering them the same. As you all know, pills such as Longevity pills are the most in-demand pills, but the supply of them is controlled by top vassal clans of the Azure Dragon Sect. Only a few are sold in a year, and it might upset the Alchemy Hall of the sect if we get into this business. They might not be pleased, so I need your opinion on it as we will not be the only clan who will be selling these pills. The sect cannot concentrate only on us as each high-grade Longevity pill can be sold for a thousand medium-grade spirit stones, seeing how rare they are."

Hearing this, all the elders fell deep into thought. Finally, one elder asked, "How many other clans will they be partnering with?"

The patriarch replied, "They mentioned around ten."

Another elder asked, "How much time do we have to make the decision?"

The patriarch answered, "They have given us seven days. After seven days, they will be visiting me. If we agree, we must be prepared with two million medium-grade stones, and they will bring the pills. Also, they will give us the names of the families they have partnered with by the end of the month, so we can meet and plan with the other families."
