Chapter 692. A Thousand Potions (2)

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

And a thousand ice potions were not supposed to be worth that much.

“Yes! I thought it was a good chance, so I accepted the order in a hurry. Now I realize it might be a trap.” The supervisor looked glum.

Qian Ye tilted his head, “A trap? Why?”

“After signing the contract, one after another, the pharmacists in our shop have been poached. Three more quitted today. Now nearly half of the pharmacists are gone. If it goes on like this, we couldn’t even finish half of the amount.” Sighed the supervisor.

Xu Chengfei darkened his face, “Who made the order? Did you make it clear?”

The supervisor tooda look at Xu Chengfei shakily and explained, “The order was from the Ice Palace. There would have been no problem. However, they meant to give the order to Liancheng Shop, but they didn’t take it, and passed it to us.”

Xu Chengfei said, face sunk, “Lianchen Shop is our deadly foe. How would they ever be so good to us?”

The director lowered his head in embarrassment. He had only thought that it was a big order, plus Ice Palace was a sect with a good reputation, but never expected that Liancheng Shop meddled in. If it hadn’t been that so many pharmacists had been poached, they should have been able to finish the order.

“What’s the compensation if we can’t finish the order at due date?” Xu chengfei asked with a cold face.

The supervisor raised his head and stuttered, “We’ll have to compensate the Ice palace one hundred thousand medium star crystals.”

Xu Chengfei’s face suddenly got twisted.

Mo Fei listened to their conversation lazily, “How long is it from now and how many have you already delivered?”

The supervisor glanced at Mo Fei, but made no reply.

Xu Chengfei looked at him with some dissatisfaction, “Mr. Mo is asking you.”

The supervisor saw Xu Chengfei a little angry, he could only answer him, “Now it has been half a month, but we have only handed over two hundred.”

Xu Chengfei’s face clouded as he cast a glance at the supervisor, while the supervisor tremblingly lowered his head.

“Can’t you do something?” Xu chengfei asked.

The supervisor nodded and said, “Yes, I went to other shops in the city to collect ice potions, but you know, there’s few in the market of that kind of potion. So I failed to purchase any. I also tried to poach pharmacists from other shops, but they wouldn’t be touched by my offer.”

Xu Chengfei was full of impatience to give him an eye, “you are really useless.”

The supervisor bowed his head in embarrassment.

Xu Chengfei suddenly thought of something, he looked over at Mo Fei and asked expectantly, “Mr. Mo, can you refine that kind of potions?”

Hearing Xu Chengfei, the supervisor could not help but looking Mo Fei up and down secretly.

Mo Fei tilted his head, smiled sweetly and said, “No.”

As the supervisor heard his reply, the heart sank, thinking to himself: A drowning man will clutch at a straw. Mr. Xu is too desperate. Ice Potion is advanced human class potions. Not some common pharmacists could refine.

“But you are master Mo. Even if you can’t, you can learn it very fast.” Xu Chengfei looked at Mo Fei with his eyes brimming with radiating vigor. He had ever seen how Mo Fei mass refined potions. He was much more capable that those so called potion masters who had unearned reputation.

Mo Fei tilted his head, saying thoughtfully, “What level is that kind of potion?”

“Human class.” Xu Chengfei hurriedly replied.

“Maybe someone at human class can try it.” My Fei said thoughtfully.

“Young master, the ice potion is not an ordinary potion. You have to think carefully!” The supervisor hurriedly tried to stop him.

Mo Fei glanced at his supervisor, with a little hostility.

Xu Chengfei glared at him, mercilessly saying, “Shut up!”

He had ever witnessed Mo Fei’s ability in the Black Smoke Valley. The reason why so many people could have escaped out of it was all thanks to Xiao Chen and Mo Fei. Xiao Chen was super talented. As he went out of family, he got roped in by Luoxia Sect. Mo Fei was no worse than him!

“Young master, this man is too young to be trusted!” The supervisor still wouldn’t give up.

Xu Chengfei blackened his face, “You are not young. Are you trustworthy?”

Hearing Xu Chengfei’s words, the supervisor blushed instantly.
