Chapter 146 - 146 146 You Can Start Considering a Family Crest Now
146: Chapter 146 You Can Start Considering a Family Crest Now 146: Chapter 146 You Can Start Considering a Family Crest Now “What good thing do you have, could it be…” Yars asked thoughtfully.
Zhao Guang nodded lightly, “That’s right, it’s painkillers.
This time I brought three types of painkillers, and aside from the first kind, there are two more with even better effects.” In reality, whether they were good or not was all the same here.
After all, they were all meant to suppress the pain from training, not the same kind of pain from illness.
“Painkillers?
That’s fantastic, how much did you bring?
I must tell you, these things are now legendary at the rear.
But because the quantity is too limited, we are currently in a state of demand exceeding supply.”
It’s more than just a demand exceeding supply, it’s absolutely unattainable.
Most people have only heard of the name but have never seen it.
In the Imperial City, the price of these painkillers has been hyped up to a terrifying level, but besides a few Great Nobles who might have a little, other people can’t even catch a glimpse of them.
Moreover, Yars heard that some alchemists had already conducted in-depth research but were unable to replicate it.
It’s said to be due to the lack of a certain special substance, and they couldn’t figure out what the original materials were.
Alchemists, although powerful, can’t create a certain special substance out of thin air.
If they had that ability, they wouldn’t be roped in to research painkillers.
“Is it that exaggerated?
I brought quite a bit more this time than last.
But speaking of which, what can you offer me?” Zhao Guang didn’t hide his desire for benefits.
Without a second thought, Yars spoke directly, “First of all, you are in great need of Basic Level Combat Skills, right?
I have many standard Basic Level Combat Skills here.
Plus, I can communicate with those Temples and get them to bring out some advanced goods.”
Speaking of which, Yars was somewhat envious of Zhao Guang, because he too coveted those advanced goods.
Even if most of these wouldn’t make too much of a difference in his own training, having them was different from not having them.
Not to mention others, just being wounded on the battlefield—should one possess healing Battle Skills, the outcome would be distinctly different.
Zhao Guang’s eyes lit up.
He no longer cared about ordinary riches.
But for things that could enhance his abilities, he was very much interested, it’s just that such things weren’t so easily obtained.
Thinking this, Zhao Guang prepared to agree.
“Additionally, you can start thinking about your family emblem.”
Upon hearing Yalugo’s words, Zhao Guang was a bit surprised, “Family emblem?”
“That’s right, the noble emblem.
Look, like this one.” Yalugo pointed to his chest where there was a badge, featuring a deer with a garland.
Looking at Yars, he too had a badge, with a big bird spreading its wings.
Zhao Guang couldn’t recognize what kind of bird it was, but it was definitely a bird of prey.
There was a gentle radiance emanating from this big bird, represented by individual, glowing lines.
“That’s the emblem of the nobles.
I don’t think I’m qualified to wear such an emblem now.”
Yalugo shook his head, “No, you already have that qualification.
You’ve supplied so many iron ingots and carts to the front line, it’s not a small contribution, and with the recommendations from the two of us.
The most crucial thing is, with the painkillers, many opposing forces will be silenced.”
Usually, there was a lot of opposition towards these newly risen nobles in the Imperial City.
The best way for newcomers to become nobles was to earn military merits on the battlefield; it was the most orthodox approach.
Zhao Guang had never really been on the battlefield, so his contribution could be considered as military service or not, depending on whom you ask.
Many noble offsprings used to skirt around this issue similarly in the past, which to some extent, is no longer allowed.
However, Zhao Guang was different; he did not come from noble offspring, and he brought forth too many things.
Most crucially, the quality, and those carts, indeed played a significant role.
But even so, the opposition was quite strong.
Even if Zhao Guang traded with them and possessed many treasures, they wouldn’t let him become a noble easily just for those things.
But painkillers were different; painkillers involved the very foundation of noble families.
With them, those in their families who were afraid of pain could now develop their Lifebound Battle Skills.
Some fairly powerful Lifebound Battle Skills also became viable to develop.
After all, enduring short-term pain is different from tolerating long-term suffering, and not everyone can bear it.
That’s exactly why the opposing forces would definitely diminish instantly.
Even to curry favor with Zhao Guang, Yalugo could imagine many would go out of their way to offer benefits.
“I see, so you mean, if I bring out the painkillers this time, I can become a noble.”
Zhao Guang was still quite delighted; after all, once he became a noble, he could move more freely and easily in this world.
As for opposing the existence of nobles, how could Zhao Guang possibly do so?
Setting aside the fact that he was already a beneficiary, this very structure was intrinsic to the evolution of this world.
This structure, unless major societal changes occurred, could be said to be the most suitable for this world.
“It’s not enough yet, we have to wait for the goods to be sent first.
Plus, your current contribution is a bit short, you need to add a little more to better shut their mouths.”
“Isn’t the supply of painkillers enough?” Zhao Guang asked, somewhat surprised.
These nobles wouldn’t be trying to stockpile the painkillers, would they?
While it’s true that they could be stored for a long time, they do have a shelf life; if they expire, it wouldn’t be his fault.
“Not exactly, we still need to keep the painkillers secret for now.
Only the nobles and a few others know about it.
It’s a tacit agreement to keep it among ourselves for now—we must first build our advantage.”
“I see, but are you sure it’s okay to tell me this?”
“Hahaha, you’re part of the nobility now; we share common interests, why wouldn’t I tell you?”
Oh, right, I’ve become one of them, at least in their eyes.
Why does it feel like I’m transitioning towards the evil capitalist class?
The change happened so rapidly, Zhao Guang was honestly a bit unaccustomed to it.
After all, not long ago, he was just an ordinary person, an unemployed youth struggling to find work.
“Alright, I understand.
So, what do I need to do?”
Zhao Guang decided to adapt and directly asked the two for the next steps.
Yars didn’t hesitate, stating directly: “The most urgently needed item right now is the carts, the most eye-catching thing on the frontline.
You just need to provide a batch of carts; maybe a thousand for this batch should suffice,” Yars put forward his request.
