Chapter 1599: Chapter 1619: Spirit Stones are Easy to Earn, Favor is Hard to Ask For_1

The Celestial Jade Locking Charm Pill is very expensive, with a price that is essentially priceless.

If a pill refining master successfully makes a batch, it’s quickly bought up through special channels and is never publicly available.

The ten Celestial Jade Locking Charm Pills put forth by Lin Chen could indeed be considered a big transaction.

Jin Buhuan laughed and asked, "Brother Lin, at what price do you plan to sell them?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "I don’t know the market rate, Brother Jin, you name a price."

Jin Buhuan hesitated a bit, "This price is not easy to set as these pills could each make it to an auction, fetching a price of 10 million Immortal Spirit Stones."

Lin Chen smiled and raised his index finger, "Since it’s difficult to set a price, let me suggest, this much per piece."

Jin Buhuan, looking at Lin Chen’s finger, laughed, "10 million per piece, huh? That price works..."

Lin Chen shook his head, "One million per piece, 10 million in total."

Jin Buhuan was stunned, "Brother Lin, what are you doing? It’s so cheap, aren’t you suffering a big loss?"

Lin Chen laughed, "I bought all the raw materials, like the Immortal Jade Mushrooms, from Freedom for about 10 million. I just spent a bit of time on this. Brother Jin, you just helped me a lot, how can I make a profit off you? I just want my costs covered."

Jin Buhuan’s eyes lit up.

As he said, the Celestial Jade Locking Charm Pill is extremely difficult to make and is practically priceless. Each pill could be auctioned at over 10 million, whereas Lin Chen is asking only for one million. That’s a profit of 10 million per pill, and a profit of 100 million Immortal Spirit Stones for the ten pills.

million!

This is absolutely not a small amount!

Even though the Freedom had made countless big deals, 100 million Immortal Spirit Stones still made his heart race.

Of course, Jin Buhuan knew that Lin Chen was intentionally doing him a favor.

Freedom has been protecting Lin Chen, and Lin Chen chose to repay this favor with ten Celestial Jade Locking Charm Pills.

This is a big gain.

The question is, should he accept it?

Jin Buhuan hesitated slightly when the handmaid’s voice echoed in his mind.

"Spirit stones are easy to earn, favors are difficult to gain."

Jin Buhuan understood, and heartily laughed, "Brother Lin, as our guest on Freedom, guaranteeing your safety is our principle. Even if I helped you escape an assassination, I can’t jeopardize your interests. Otherwise, if this got out, what kind of person would that make me?"

"Brother Lin, trading has to be fair. We don’t owe each other anything. How about this, let’s stick with what I said before. 10 million per piece, one hundred million Spirit Stones in total. How’s that?"

Lin Chen sighed inwardly. Jin Buhuan was clearly choosing to keep a favor instead of taking the Spirit Stones.

He intentionally mentioned "Even if I helped you escape an assassination", confirming his favor, and then telling Lin Chen that he doesn’t accept the repayment of his favor in Spirit Stones.

His favor seems quite valuable.

Jin Buhuan would rather keep his favor than earn 100 million Spirit Stones. He values Lin Chen’s favor as more valuable than 100 million Spirit Stones.

Oh well, it’s true that he did owe Jin Buhuan a favor, might as well repay it.

Lin Chen said freely with a laugh, "Brother Jin truly lives up to his reputation as a trustworthy businessman. As Brother Jin says then!"

Jin Buhuan laughingly said, "Good, I’ll have someone bring you the Spirit Stones immediately... I’m guessing there wouldn’t be much you’d want to buy this time since you picked over our stock just a while ago, right?"

Lin Chen nodded. Having the Spirit Stones with him didn’t have much use. It would be better to convert them into valuable items. However, as Jin Buhuan said, he really couldn’t pick out what he needed.

The stunning handmaid walked out and soon returned, handing a Spatial Ring to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen didn’t bother to check it and casually pocketed the ring.

Lin Chen asked, "Brother Jin, why is the Freedom anchored here?"

Jin Buhuan laughed, "For business! There’s a sect on this island. Although there aren’t a lot of people and the demand isn’t great, in doing business, we can’t cherry-pick. Every customer counts, we’re in it for the long haul."

After a pause, Jin Buhuan asked, "Brother Lin, where are you planning to go next?"

Lin Chen laughed, "Naturally, I’m heading back to Ten Thousand Flowers Palace. And where is Freedom heading?"

Jin Buhuan sighed, "We’re heading in separate directions then, you’re going south to Ten Thousand Flowers Palace, and we’re heading north."

Lin Chen laughed, "I was hoping to hitch a ride for a bit, but it seems that won’t work."

Jin Buhuan laughed, "If Brother Lin isn’t in a hurry, you’re welcome to stay aboard Freedom."

Lin Chen politely declined, "I have some urgent matters to attend to and need to go back. Perhaps next time."

Jin Buhuan laughed, "If that’s the case, then we’ll have to wait until next time. The person who was after you has left. You can leave anytime you want, Brother Lin. But if you’re not comfortable yet, you can wait a day or two."

Lin Chen laughed, "No need for that, I must take my leave now. Brother Jin, I won’t forget today’s events. If you ever need anything, feel free to reach out to me. I will soon be staying at Ten Thousand Flowers Palace. If I’m not there, you can leave a message for me at the White Crane Immortal Sect."

Jin Buhuan, who had forsaken 100 million Immortal Spirit Stones, did it for this promise. He laughed heartily, "Great! If I ever need something and need your help, I won’t hesitate to ask you, Brother Lin!"
