072 The road never imagined(2/2)
Everyone nodded excitedly.
They are a local street gang in Wangdu. They live in dirty shantytowns. They usually travel around the city to do small crimes, such as stealing things, burglarizing houses, and robbing passers-by. They often struggle to make ends meet.
This time I took the risk and quietly sneaked into the well-secured Furnace District to commit a crime just to do this big deal.
The business of Bill's Pharmacy is so prosperous, but the boss is just a foreigner and a weak pharmacist...
They feel that not taking action is simply a waste of the opportunity to have food and clothing for the rest of their lives.
"I heard that Bill has a good relationship with a certain hunter. Will there be any problems?" Someone thought about this and couldn't help but ask.
"What are you afraid of? After we finish this job, we will go out to avoid the limelight. It will be useless if he knows anyone."
The leader didn't care.
At this moment, a figure came from far down the street, followed by a dog. It was Zhou Jing.
"Coming, coming!"
The small group was refreshed and immediately held their breath, waiting for their target to approach.
One step, two steps, one step, two steps... Zhou Jing gradually approached this alley.
"superior!"
The leader's eyes flashed, he drew his dagger and rushed out.
Without saying a word, he stretched out his hand to cover Zhou Jing's mouth and pointed the dagger at Zhou Jing's neck.
"Be honest, don't... poof!"
Before the leader finished speaking, a fist appeared in front of him.
Bang!
The nose broke instantly, as if a sauce shop had been opened, sour, spicy and bitter all bursting out in the skull cavity.
"Ah!" The leader screamed with a headache and squatted down holding his bleeding nose.
However, the next moment, his eyes met Xiao Hei No. 1.
Xiao Hei No. 1 tilted his head, his eyes fell on the man's crotch, and he fell into deep thought.
Squatting down with your legs spread wide apart, doesn’t this mean you are welcome to taste it?
Dig from the front!
"Ahhhhh"
The screams tore through the night sky!
The accomplices who were following him had just rushed out of the alley when they saw a tragic scene.
The leader's nose was broken, and it was covered in blood. He fell to the ground, and a hyena bit his crotch and tore it hard. Blood splattered everywhere, and half of the ham and the egg were pulled out.
"hiss"
Several of his accomplices gasped subconsciously, feeling the same sensation and feeling a dull pain in their lower bodies.
At this moment, dense footsteps suddenly sounded in the surrounding alleys, and more than a dozen guards rushed out. Without saying a word, they knocked down the stunned accomplices to the ground and tied them up skillfully.
The captain of the guard team walked up to Zhou Jing, looked at the leading kidnapper who was holding his crotch and howling miserably, and couldn't help but shudder.
A man's pain is so relatable.
"Brother Bill, leave these people to us."
"Thank you all. Come to my store tomorrow and I'll buy you a batch of energy potions as a token of my gratitude."
"Hehe." The guard squad leader rubbed his hands with a smile on his face.
Zhou Jing then kicked Xiao Hei No. 1 to make him stop chewing. It looked very painful.
He glanced at the group of enemies and rolled his eyes secretly.
This is already the sixth wave of kidnappers we have encountered recently, and there are too many people who want to catch him and make a fortune.
Zhou Jing deliberately established a good relationship with the guards and asked them to escort him every time he went home. The reward was energy potions and occasionally he would treat him to dinner. Naturally, the guards did not mind making extra money before the curfew patrol.
After all, I am a weak pharmacist now and I am too embarrassed to kill all the kidnappers.
"I am considered a low-level person now and have not been recognized. When I enter the Imperial Workshop and have an official status as an amulet, this situation should not happen again." Zhou Jing secretly calculated.
…
Imperial hunter station and workshop.
A regular meeting is being held, and the participants are all heads of various departments in the workshop, reporting on the recent output and consumption.
The senior management of the workshop looked at the account list and quickly discovered an anomaly. They were a little puzzled: "Why have they stocked up so many pain relief potions recently? Isn't this a very commonly used potion? Why are there no hunters to get it?"
As he said that, everyone looked at the person in charge of the hunter potion department.
The person in charge shook his head helplessly: "I asked, and the hunters have recently gone to a pharmacy in the capital to buy this potion, but no one wants what our workshop produces."
"Is there such a thing?" The senior management of the workshop was a little stunned.
They are a workshop exclusively for Empire hunters. Logically speaking, all materials used by hunters are provided by them, and the quality is always guaranteed.
Especially for hunter potions, they have a gathering of elites and produce excellent products, so there is no need for hunters to go elsewhere to purchase them.
Nowadays, hunters choose others but not their own workshop, as if they are being outcompeted. Doesn’t this seem like the workshop has failed in its duty?
The senior management of the workshop was a little embarrassed and said solemnly:
"Tell me about the situation."
The person in charge had already expected it and replied:
"Some time ago, a pharmacist named Bill appeared in the royal capital and opened a shop. He only sold three kinds of potions, one of which was a pain relief potion. Hunters who had used it all said it was good.
But what he specializes in is an aphrodisiac, which is a modified formula of the energy potion to make people’s senses more sensitive. I use it... cough, I have studied it, and the effect is very good, so it has become popular in the royal capital recently, and the business is quite good."
"Making aphrodisiacs?" The person in charge of the workshop twitched his lips.
Good guy, our professional hunter workshop, the empire's research institute, was actually outclassed by an aphrodisiac maker?
This is not a slap in my face, this is a slap on the royal family’s ass!
His expression was complicated: "Have you studied his pain relief medicine?"
The person in charge suddenly became energetic and nodded:
"The formula of his pain relief potion has also been improved, and the production level is very high. I personally went to his pharmacy and found that there are many powerful potions in his store. He probably has very high potion making skills."
"So this is a powerful pharmacist." The senior management of the workshop's eyes lit up, he thought for a while, and said: "In this case, we will send someone to investigate and see his level. If possible, invite him to join the empire.
Workshop.”
Others who didn't speak were stunned.
"But he is an aphrodisiac, and his reputation..." Some people couldn't help but question.
The senior management of the workshop waved his hands and said with a smile:
"Making aphrodisiacs is not important. It is just a business chosen by people. Facts have proved that it is indeed profitable. Don't be blinded by this appearance.
What is really important is that he can improve the hunter's potion formula and get the hunter's approval... I don't know how many potions a hunter has drunk in his life. A pharmacist who can be praised by hunters must be of good quality. Such a talent cannot be let go.
Pass!"
Everyone looked at each other, and although they felt a little uncomfortable, they still didn't object.
The senior management of the workshop nodded and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Chapter completed!
