Chapter 159: An instant hit

Even though he was joking, after seeing Xun Zhiruo, Chen Ning suddenly had an idea.

"Miss Xun, I have a profitable life here. Can you be willing to invest?" Chen Ning asked.

Xun Zhiruo's eyes lit up and she immediately asked, "Are you the money-making methods you brag about last time? I thought you were bragging."

"Brave? You underestimate me too much. I, Chen Ning, are upright and never lie, and every word is true." Chen Ning replied.

Xun Zhiruo gave him a helpless look and asked, "Let's just talk about making money."

"Okay!" Chen Ning nodded, then took out two pieces of paper from his arms and handed it to Xun Zhiruo.

The paper describes the method of refining perfume and distilling white wine. After the last time, the system was directly placed in Shen Ning's memory. He wrote it on the paper and wore it on his body. Unexpectedly, he had a place to use it today.

After reading it, Xun Zhiruo was very interested in perfume and high-alcohol liquor and asked, "Are these two items really like you said?"

"If you don't believe it, you'll know if you try it? But before cooperation, would you talk about how to distribute it? I provide the recipe, you are responsible for the operation, and I don't have time to check and supervise your refining process. As for the difficulties encountered in the process, I will solve them yourself." Chen Ning said.

Xun Zhiruo was speechless, "You only provide methods, and then you become a hand-off manager, and you also want to make more money. Chen Ning, Chen Ning, why are you so greedy?"

"Don't talk nonsense! If you talk nonsense, pay back the money quickly. 200,000 taels, immediately! If you don't change, don't blame me for hurting others!" Chen Ning glared at her, then stretched out his right hand and waved to a milk dragon.

Seeing Chen Ning's gesture, Xun Zhiruo immediately remembered that the night he was at the Wang family in Pengcheng, this bastard touched him! He had tried his best to forget this matter, and today he reminded him to remember it, ah... He is such a shameless bastard!

"Okay! I'm seven and you three!" Xun Zhiruo gritted her teeth.

Chen Ning shook his head and said, "I'm seven and three are almost the same! Don't you know that knowledge is money? I just want to find a chamber of commerce and ask me for cooperation. I don't need to hang myself on a tree! Moreover, these two things are monopoly items, and only we have, so we have the right to price. Especially perfume, which concubines in the palace don't want to own them, and who do not flock to the wives of the imperial capital?"

"I'm six and you four! This is the bottom line! I also want to produce, promote, and sell. You can directly make 40% of the profit, which is already a lot! Don't go too far!" Xun Zhiruo said hatefully.

Chen Ning stopped when he saw that it was good and smiled: "Okay! By the way, if you extract perfume, don't rush to sell it. You have to build momentum first. Give me a few bottles first. I will give it to Princess Changle and ask her to send it to all the ladies in the harem, so that she can become a hit and become the best-selling treasure!"

"I became famous in one shot? What does it mean?" Xun Zhiruo had never heard of this word.

Chen Ning said seriously: "Why don't you have a shot? I will teach you by myself!"

"roll!"

......

After leaving Xiushan Bookstore, Chen Ning sent Yu Xuefei back.

On the way, Yu Xuefei couldn't help but say, "Chen Ning, this lady of the Xun family is too smart, I don't like it very much."

"I don't like smart women very much. Xun Zhiruo is too sensible and can do business, not anything else." Chen Ning agreed.

When Yu Xuefei heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Really?"

"It's still my silly cuteness." Chen Ning joked.

Yu Xuefei muttered this little mouth, "I'm not stupid."

After sending her back safely, Chen Ning returned to the Southeast Prince's Mansion.

Lu Xun had already come back and reported to Chen Ning with a smile: "Military Master, the task you assigned has been completed. I walked around with the elixir recipe of the Five Flavors Golden Pill and went to many pharmacies. When they saw that it was Ge Hong's elixir recipe, they all had to buy it at a high price, with the highest bid of 10,000 taels!"

"So high?" Chen Ning was a little surprised.

Lu Xun nodded and explained: "Although ten thousand taels are huge, this money is nothing compared to the filial piety of Your Majesty. Your Majesty is obsessed with refining elixirs and orders the Earth Huwei to collect elixirs in the world. Ge Hong is the most famous alchemist a hundred years ago. It is said that he took his own golden elixir into the flying immortal in his later years, and it was so magical that Your Majesty was naturally keen on. Whoever could present the recipe for the Five Flavors to Your Majesty, Your Majesty would be very happy and would be rewarded with great rewards."

"Very good! I think Dihu Guard has also received the news." Chen Ning took back the pill recipe from Lu Xun. This temporary pill recipe may become Chen Ning's stepping stone, gaining greater trust from Emperor Sima Zhou, thus allowing Chen Ning to open a new door.

And the development of things was indeed as expected by Shen Ning.

The appearance of the Five Flavors Jindan Pill Recipe was immediately reported to the commander Wei Zhongcheng by Dihuwei.

Wei Zhongcheng did not dare to neglect, so he immediately sent the Dihu Guard to find someone with the Five Flavors Jindan Pill recipe, and at the same time reported the news to Xu Chongzhi.

When Xu Chong heard that it was the Five Flavors Golden Pill, he immediately reported it to Sima Zhou.

Sima Zhou had just finished taking the pill and was lying on the soft couch, enjoying the knock on the shoulder of the noble man Xuan. Suddenly, Sima Zhou sat up straight and said in surprise: "What did you say? Someone showed up in the imperial capital with the recipe for the five flavors of golden elixir?"

"Report to Your Majesty, it's true that the Earth Tiger Guard has confirmed it!" Xu Chong responded directly.

Sima Zhou said excitedly: "Okay, okay! That's great! Ge Hong has been studying alchemy techniques for his whole life and developed three supreme golden elixirs. Finally, he ascended with the golden elixir to immortalize himself. The Five Flavors Golden Pill is one of them! The Taoist golden elixir of Longhu Mountain has been unable to be found for a long time, and the Golden Pill of Longhu Mountain is more famous than the effect. It is only rumored that he can save the dying person who is dying when he is dead, but no one takes it and ascends. It is far worse than the Five Flavors Golden Pill! Send someone to investigate and turn the emperor into the sky, and you will also find the whereabouts of the Five Flavors Golden Pill. If anyone takes the initiative to offer it, I will reward him!"

"I understand!" Xu Chong stepped down and immediately arranged for the Earth Hu Guard to start the search.

Just like that, time flies for three days.

There are five days left before Sima Zhou's birthday.

But the Earth Huwei had not found the whereabouts of the Five Flavors Golden Pill for a long time, and Xu Chong was already anxious.

The people sent to ask about several pharmacies where the pill recipe appeared. They also described Lu Xun's appearance, but it was not easy to find Lu Xun in the vast capital of the emperor, let alone Lu Xun pretended.

Seeing that the time was right, Chen Ning went to Princess Changle's Mansion.

"Chen Ning, is it okay for us to go to the lake today? There are only two of us?" Princess Changle asked with a blushing face.

Chen Ning apologized and said, "It's not possible today, what's going to tomorrow? Today I want to enter the palace to meet the saint, so I have to ask the princess to enter the palace to explain to Your Majesty."

"Do you want to see my father? What's the matter? If it's not a big deal, it's hard for you to see him." Princess Changle asked.

Chen Ning did not hide it and took out the recipe for the Five Flavors Golden Pill.

Princess Changle saw it and said in surprise: "Is the pill recipe actually in your hands?"

Chen Ning smiled and said, "I got it by chance, and this opportunity is thanks to the princess. I didn't expect that this pill recipe is so important, so I want to offer it to Your Majesty."

Princess Changle smiled and said, "Is it related to me?"

She was surprised and continued, "My father is obsessed with the way of alchemy. If you want to do what you like, my father will definitely be happy and will be of great benefit to your career. With this elixir recipe, my father will definitely meet you! I will enter the palace now and report this to you."

"I'm sorry to the princess for this matter!" Chen Ning thanked.

Princess Changle replied: "No trouble at all. What is beneficial to you is the happiest thing."

Looking at her shy expression, this love words made Chen Ning feel a little apologized. Why do you feel like a scumbag?

Afterwards, Princess Changle entered the palace and Chen Ning waited in front of Wufeng Tower.

Princess Changle met her father in the alchemy room and explained her purpose. Sima Zhou heard that the recipe for the five-flavor golden elixir was in Shen Ning's hands, and quickly Xuan Chenning entered the palace to meet him.

In this way, Chen Ning entered the palace again and visited the alchemy room again.

When I entered the inner room, I saw Sima Zhou sitting on the upper head, Xu Chongzhi on the left, and Huo Tianguang, the commander of the Imperial Guard of the Tianlong Guard, on the right.

Princess Anle sat on one side, while Zhao Qingxuan was in front of the table next to her, as if she was writing and drawing.

"I am humble in office, Chen Ning, pay homage to Your Majesty." Chen Ning bowed and bowed.

Sima Zhou asked anxiously: "Chen Aiqing, is the recipe for the elixir in your hand really the five flavors of golden elixir?"

Chen Ning took out the pill recipe and said, "I have little knowledge and do not know this pill recipe. I also ask Your Majesty to let the professional alchemist distinguish it."

"It's reasonable to say it, it's reasonable to say it!" Sima Zhou nodded, waved his hand, and Xu Chong immediately called the alchemist.

Several alchemists carefully took the pill recipe and carefully identified it before reporting to Sima Zhou: "Report to Your Majesty, after careful inspection, the age and handwriting of this pill recipe were all made by Ge Hong, and it can be concluded that it is the original work that has been lost for many years!"

"That's great!" Sima Zhou was surprised and immediately became furious after getting confirmed.

He is already the emperor who owns the world, everything belongs to him. If he can surprise him so much, he must have obtained a treasure he has never had before, such as immortality.

And this pill recipe seems to be a step to open the passage of immortality, so Sima Zhou's excitement is conceivable.

Then Sima Zhou shouted: "Ai You Chen has made great contributions to offering treasures. I want to reward you with gold and silver, and give you a lot of rewards!"

But Chen Ning said, "Your Majesty, you don't ask for rewards for your humble duties. Now it's your majesty's birthday, so this pill recipe is the gift you offer to your majesty. It is the glory of your humble duties to you."

Sima Zhou laughed loudly. Others were looking forward to rewards. Chen Ning was fine and didn't need any rewards. It was indeed a loyal young man. He needed such young man himself, and the court also needed such young man.

"I have received your congratulations, I like it very much. But I have a clear reward and punishment. I must reward you today! Chen Ning obeyed the order, and you have made contributions to offering treasures. I will be awarded the title of Marquis of the Pavilion and reward you with five Xiaoyao Pills! A thousand taels of gold! Xiaoyao Pills were personally refined by nobleman Xuan!" Sima Zhou said.

According to the official title system of the Jin Dynasty, the Marquis of Ting was not a fief, but just a kind of reputation. Now the title system of the Jin Dynasty is chaotic, and you can enjoy the title with a little contribution.

So this reward is just a false reputation, which is considered useless. But it doesn’t matter. What Chen Ning lacks is a false reputation, and gold and silver are useless things to him.

As for the five Xiaoyao Pills, Chen Ning would not dare to take them. Who knows whether Zhao Qingxuan was poisoned?

"Thank you for your reward!" Chen Ning immediately thanked Dai Ze.

Afterwards, Chen Ningcai and Princess Changle retired and began to leave the palace.

"I'll go to Concubine Yan's place. You can study the five flavors of golden elixir carefully and configure it as soon as possible!" Sima Zhou stood up and prepared to leave.

At this moment, Zhao Qingxuan, who was looking through the pill recipe, found that there was a missing piece of the content of the pill recipe, and then reported to Your Majesty: "Your Majesty, I have studied this pill recipe and found that there was a missing piece of content, and it was the most important piece, the ratio of the material configuration."

"What?" Sima Zhou was shocked.

Zhao Qingxuan took the opportunity to take advantage of the situation: "Captain Shen lost it?"

"Xu Chongzhi, call Chen Ning back quickly. Daoxuan, leave this matter to you. Ask him carefully for me, be sure to find it." Sima Zhou ordered.

Zhao Qingxuan was stunned. She thought she would catch Chen Ning's handle, and Sima Zhou would be angry, but she didn't expect Sima Zhou was not angry, but just asked her to ask Chen Ning, and he couldn't wait to go to Yan Fei's place.

I don’t know what method that bitch that concubine Yan used to attract His Majesty. Every time this time comes, she will go to her place.

"I'm following the order." Zhao Qingxuan could only respond.
