85. Get rich overnight （1）
Ye Shi sold five bottles of medicinal herbs for four million elementary stones to Xin Ruge.
Looking at Ye Shi, Xin Ruge couldn't help but ask curiously, "Little Junior Brother, you have so much money now. What are you going to do with them?"
Xin Ruge frowned. The last time Ye Shi received more than 1.8 million elementary stones, he spent most of elementary stones in just two days. Now Ye Shi should have more than 5 million elementary stones in his card. How long would Ye Shi use them up?...
Ye Shi held the elementary stone card, and said dejectedly: "I don't know if these are enough."
Xin Ruge looked at Ye Shi puzzled and said, "It's not enough? What do you want to do? So many elementary stones are not enough?"
Ye Shi shook his head and said, "Not enough."
Ye Shi frowned. When there was a problem within the Mu family, Mu Yuanhang deliberately leaked the news of the Spirit-breaking Elixir, forcing Mu Yuanfeng to have no choice but to auction the Spirit-breaking Elixir. This was always one of Mu Chen's concerns. Mu Chen planned to buy a Spirit-breaking Elixir in the imperial capital, and then ask someone to send it back to Mu Yuanfeng.
Mu Yuanfeng was kind to Ye Shi. Ye Shi's admission letter was bought by Mu Yuanfeng. Without Mu Yuanfeng, Ye Shi might not have been admitted to the Saint Star Academy. Ye Shi certainly couldn't oppose his plan, not to mention that elementary stones were earned by Mu Chen.
What Mu Chen wanted to buy was a high-grade Spirit-breaking Elixir. Back then, Mu Yuanfeng's low-grade Spirit-breaking Elixir was auctioned for more than two million elementary stones. Although the elixir in the imperial capital was not as scarce as in a small city and it was cheaper than a small town, the price of a high-grade Spirit-breaking Elixir was at least twice as expensive as a low-grade one. It might cost more than two or three million.
What Mu Chen wanted was more than just a Spirit-breaking Elixir. He also wanted to bring some spirit creatures to Mu Yuanfeng that could improve his strength. Those things were also not cheap. And he had to pay a consignment fee to someone who would bring these things back. Ye Shi couldn’t come up with the sum of how much it might cost in total.
Ye Shi looked at the elementary stone card in his hand, sighed lightly, and said, "Not enough!"
Xin Ruge rolled her eyes and said, "How can you spend so much money?!"
Ye Shi looked at Xin Ruge, shook his head, and said, "You don't understand. So many things to buy.”
Xin Ruge: "..."
Ye Shi didn't know that there was a reason why Mu Chen was so eager to buy the Spirit-breaking Elixir to help Mu Yuanfeng improve his strength.
According to the original book, Lu Yao would come to look for Hundred Exercises soon.
In the original book, the reason why Lu Yao knew that the Hundred Exercises was in Mu Chen's hands was because Mu Chen told Zhuang Yu, and Zhuang Yu told Lu Yao. Although it was impossible for him to tell Zhuang Yu about the Hundred Exercises, but Mu Chen was not sure that Lu Yao would trace down to Mu Yuanfeng.
In the original book, Mu Chen died at the hands of Lu Yao, and Mu Yuanfeng also died at the hands of Lu Yao's protector in order to avenge Mu Chen.
Even if Mu Yuanfeng didn't take revenge on Lu Yao, Lu Yao would probably kill Mu Yuanfeng in order to silence him.
After all, Mu Yuanfeng was the biological father of this body. Since he came here, Mu Yuanfeng had always been kind to Mu Chen, and Mu Chen did not want anything bad to happen to Mu Yuanfeng.
"Fortunately, the prescription is worth a lot of money." Ye Shi said with a smile.
Xin Ruge frowned, looked at Ye Shi, and said, "Stone, I'm afraid that prescription won't be able to be worth many elementary stones."
"Why?" Ye Shi said with a frown.
Xin Ruge sighed and said, "Stone, you need to be content with your gain. In fact, Miss Lian is already very kind. All in all, don't have too much hope for that prescription."
No matter how precious second-level pills were, they were only second-level pills. Originally, Lian Mengxun didn’t need to spend so many stones to buy twenty second-level pills. She only needed to buy two pills and hand them over to the academy. After analyzing the formula, senior alchemists could get the pill formula she needed. She would spend so many elementary stones because it was an unwritten rule that she had bought the pill formula.
Ye Shi still looked at Xin Ruge puzzled. Xin Ruge sighed lightly, and said to Ye Shi, "You will understand later."
Ye Shi pouted, thinking: I understand? Understand what? He didn't understand at all.

"Have you heard? Senior Sister Lian seems to have really obtained the beast spirit pill."
"I heard that the beast spirit pill was refined by one of our freshmen."
"I also heard it. I originally thought that person was Lan Ruofeng. After all, everyone said that he is the best among the freshmen of the Alchemy School, way better than ordinary freshmen. But I heard that he was not the one. "
"Maybe you don't believe it, but I got solid news from that fat man Fu Yuanbao. That person doesn't seem to be a freshman from our Alchemy School, but from the Talisman School."
"It's from the Talisman School? How is it possible? How can a talisman-maker make a beast spirit pill?"
"The one who sold the beast spirit pill to Senior Sister Lian was Ye Shi, the apprentice of Elder Jing Chiyan. Everyone knows that Ye Shi can't make pills, but his fiancé, Mu Chen, is a second-level alchemist. Mu Chen is from the Talisman School. I heard that Senior Sister Lian bought twenty pills from Ye Shi at the price of 200,000 pills."
"Twenty, 200,000 each, that's 4 million! Ye Shi is rich now." A freshman couldn't help but said.
Every freshman who was not rich had a dream of getting rich overnight, and Ye Shi, of course, had become a role model in everyone's mind.

86. Get rich overnight （2）
Lan Ruofeng walked in the crowd with a very gloomy face. During this time, the matter of the beast spirit pill was raging, and Mu Chen also began to catch attention of the senior management of the Alchemy School.
Lan Da's involvement in Mu Chen's entrance exam was still exposed. Although the dean of the Alchemy School didn't say much, in the end, he was still a little bit grumpy about Lan Da, and this matter became a problem for Lan Da. Although Lan Da didn't say anything, Lan Ruofeng knew that his clan uncle had became distant from him.
There was a lot of uproar about the beast spirit pill, and Zhuang Yu had heard it too.
Since Zhuang Yu entered the academy, he was compare with Ye Shi. In public opinioins, Zhuang Yu was good-looking while Ye Shi was ordinary-looking. Zhuang Yu was easygoing while Ye Shi was grumpy. Zhuang Yu was noble and elegant but Ye Shi was rude and savage.
Zhuang Yu was much better Ye Shi in every possible way. But there was one thing that Zhuang Yu couldn't compare to Ye Shi. Ye Shi had a fiancé who was obedient to him and was good at making money.
The better Mu Chen was, the more jealous Zhuang Yu was towards Ye Shi.
In the book, Zhuang Yu was innocent and kind, transcendental, and he was not jealous at all. After all, he could get everything he wanted. Now, with Mu Chen involving, Zhuang Yu was finally jealous.
…………
Mu Chen had a full schedule every day, cultivating, concocting pills, making talismans, thinking...
At Saint Star Academy, there was a day off every seven days. On this day, students could walk out of the campus and take a look outside.
On the day off, Ye Shi and Mu Chen left the school early.
Less than half a month after entering the academy, Ye Shi's strength had been stabilized at the level of a two-star martial artist master under the guidance of Jing Chiyan, but Mu Chen had not made a breakthrough due to his less excellent qualifications, plus the distraction of alchemy and talisman.
However, Mu Chen had already taken advantage of this period of time to open more than half of the blocked acupoints in his body, and his training speed had increased several times at once. In a while, the shortcomings of his aptitude could be overcome.
"Mu Chen, it's cheaper to buy the Spirit-breaking Elixir at the academy." Ye Shi looked at Mu Chen and said.
Mu Chen nodded and said, "I know, but all the Spirit-breaking Elixirs in the academy are supposed to be used by students themselves. If they are bought for family members, the higher-ups in the academy will have a problem with it."
Mu Chen paused, then continued, "I know that if you use your master Shi as an excuse, the academy will turn blind eye on it. But we should try our best not to cause any trouble to your master Shifu. Besides, the alchemist guild in the imperial capital has a good reputation, and they are also responsible for the delivery."
Ye Shi smiled dryly and said, "They are in charge of delivery, but I heard that they charge a 10% commission."
Mu Chen smiled nonchalantly, and said, "It's a bit expensive, but safe!" To be honest, if the Alchemist Guild's commission was too low, he wouldn't choose them.
Ye Shi nodded and said, "Okay, you're right."
The Alchemy Guild's Spirit-breaking Elixir was worth 3 million. Because Mu Chen was a second-level alchemist, he could get a discount. In the end, he got a 20% discount, 2.4 million. In addition to the Spirit-breaking Elixir, Mu Chen spent more than 100 elementary stones. To buy a lot of spiritual herbs and spiritual items that were helpful for martial artists' cultivation.
Together with a commission of 4,000,000 elementary stones for delivery, it cost a total of nearly 4 million elementary stones.
Ye Shi's heart ached when he saw the missing number in the elementary stone card, but he gradually became indifferent to it.
Mu Chen looked at Ye Shi's face and comforted, "Don't worry. I might spend a lot but I will make more. After selling the prescription, we can still make a fortune."
Ye Shi frowned and said disappointingly, "Senior Sister Xin said that the pill formula won't be worth much money."
Mu Chen smiled lightly, and said disapprovingly, "Whether prescription can sell money depends on whether people in the academy have the ability to do so. Don't worry. Forty beast spirit pills won't last long. If Miss Lian wants to subdue the blood dragon, a large amount of beast spirit pills are needed. It is impossible for those people in the academy to research the pill formula before Lian Mengxun runs out of pills. So you should wait and receive more money."
For ordinary low-level pill prescriptions, many high-level alchemists could imitate them by decomposing the ingredients. However, this beast spirit pill was different. The important thing about this pill was not the spirit grass used in pill concocting, but outside pill concocting.
"Okay." Ye Shi nodded and said. In fact, Ye Shi didn't really understand Mu Chen's words, but he understood that he had money to get.
"Even if prescription is not valuable, I will think of other ways to make money." Mu Chen said lightly.
Ye Shi nodded and said, "I know."
Among the lower grade students in the entire academy, Mu Chen was the one who made most money. There were a few students who were richer than Mu Chen, but they were all children of big families.
"The Talisman Association." When they were walking on the street, a magnificent Talisman Association came into their eyes.
Ye Shi glanced at Mu Chen and said, "Are you already a talisman maker? You should get yourself certificated."
Mu Chen nodded and said, "Alright."
Talisman badge was often used at Talisman School. Mu Chen didn't even have a first-level talisman badge. Most of the tasks in the Talisman School required a talisman badge.
