Chapter 23: The First Pot of Gold (Seeking Recommendation Tickets)

Unexpectedly, the one who came was Li Jianren, who had a bit of a grudge with Li Zhangsheng not long ago. Beside him, the Flame Wolf limped, its eyes showing a bit more awe when looking at Aixi.

The Healing Spring has excellent healing effects, and coupled with the Demon Pet's own recovery ability, although it cannot heal the injuries immediately, it can fully recover after just two or three days of rest.

If there were no Healing Spring, even using the Li Family's special Green Jade Hemostatic Ointment, it would likely take ten days or half a month for the Flame Wolf to fully recover; such a long time would be enough for other competitors to catch up and lose the opportunity to compete for a spot in the Academy.

Li Jianren was very clear about this point. It was difficult for him to buy medicine better than the Green Jade Hemostatic Ointment, and there were no Spirit Beasts with healing skills in the family. After receiving Li Zhangsheng's "favor" for no reason, he, who cared very much about his reputation, wanted to repay the favor as soon as possible, so he did not choose to refuse when he learned that Li Zhangsheng was looking for him.

Compared to before, Li Jianren was no longer arrogant and said in a low voice: "Zhangsheng, what do you want with me?"

"Jianren, do you see these clay pots?"

Under Li Zhangsheng's instruction, Li Jianren saw the clay pots piled up in the corner. He seemed to have thought of something and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Without waiting for Li Jianren to speak, Li Zhangsheng continued: "I presume you have guessed it; these clay pots are all filled with Healing Spring! The reason I came to you is very simple: I hope you can help me sell the Healing Spring long-term!"

Possessing a Nature Spirit allows for a continuous production of Healing Spring, and as Kailan's strength increases, the output and quality of the Healing Spring will also increase accordingly.

In addition, apart from being kept for daily training, there is a large surplus in the production capacity of the Healing Spring. Plus, he is very short of money, so he came up with the idea of selling it, using the unique effects of the Healing Spring to get his first pot of gold.

However, selling the Healing Spring is relatively cumbersome and requires a lot of time and energy. Naturally, he could not waste his time on this, so he came up with the idea of having others act as agents.

Why he chose Li Jianren is mainly because he fits Li Zhangsheng's requirements relatively well.

First, Li Jianren is a Monster Tamer, and the main target group for the Healing Spring is Monster Tamers; naturally, it cannot be handed over to a non-Monster Tamer to act as an agent!

Second, in the Li Family, Li Jianren's elders possess significant power, and his grandfather is a highly respected Clan Elder, who can not only expand the channels but is also enough to deter the prying eyes of the petty.

Apart from Li Jianren, Li Zhangsheng had no better partner.

"Me?" It would be a lie to say Li Jianren wasn't surprised. He felt as if he had auditory hallucinations. Clearly, the two sides had a grudge not long ago, yet Li Zhangsheng not only "returned evil with kindness" by healing his Flame Wolf, but now he was even letting him act as an agent to sell the Healing Spring.

A pie falling from the sky!

"That's right! An eight-two split, eight for me and two for you. Are you willing or not? Give me an answer."

"Willing, only a fool wouldn't be willing!" Li Jianren muttered, immediately choosing to agree.

With the efficacy of the Healing Spring, even if he could only get a twenty percent share, it would be enough for him to make a fortune and satisfy his cultivation needs.

Don't look at how his elders are all powerful figures in the family; there are many direct descendants in his branch. Just take his grandfather, the Clan Elder, who has seven cousins including his father. And his father, in turn, has four children, including him.

That is to say, Li Jianren still has to compete for resources with three biological brothers.

"If I'm not mistaken, you must possess a Demon Pet with healing abilities, otherwise you wouldn't have asked me to sell the Healing Spring!"

"That's right!" Li Zhangsheng did not deny it. Anyone who wasn't a fool could guess it, not to mention that Kailan's existence could not be hidden for long anyway.

Immediately after, Li Zhangsheng suddenly remembered something and said: "I forgot to tell you, the efficacy of the Healing Spring can only be maintained for about a week before it greatly diminishes due to energy volatilization!"

"In that case, its value will be greatly discounted. Sigh, I feel like I lost out big time. In terms of value, the Wind Ribbon clearly exceeds that big jar of Healing Spring you had!"

Li Jianren thought of the Wind Ribbon and couldn't help but feel a bit depressed.

What he didn't know was that the big jar of Healing Spring that Li Zhangsheng used as a bet only had less than half left at the time...

"With the value of the Healing Spring, I believe you will soon be able to earn the value of the Wind Ribbon, not to mention that this is a long-term income!"

Li Zhangsheng waved his hand, discussed it with Li Jianren, and finally determined the pricing of the Healing Spring: each small jar sells for only one Lower Rank, Lower Grade Demon Core.

With Kailan's output, she can produce thirty or forty small jars a day, and as her strength increases, the output will continue to rise.

Li Zhangsheng was not afraid of Li Jianren embezzling it; he handed this batch of Healing Spring to him first, while he himself continued to direct Aixi to carry out extreme training.

Under extreme training, Aixi felt increasingly exhausted. Wanting to constantly refresh its performance and break its original records became increasingly difficult.

Even if Aixi gave its all, it could not guarantee that it could improve its performance every time, and according to Li Zhangsheng's rules, if it could not break the original record, it could not drink the Healing Spring.

Without the Healing Spring, it was impossible to recover to its peak state within the limited rest time.

This was a vicious cycle.

Yet Aixi was quite proud and had no intention of begging Li Zhangsheng.

After running another lap, Aixi panted heavily, even sticking out its pink tongue, lying on the ground and not wanting to get up.

Three consecutive failures caused it to consume a large amount of physical strength, and its whole body was exceptionally sore. If it continued, it was almost impossible to break the record.

"Aixi, stop training for now. This is the lunch I prepared for you!"

How could Li Zhangsheng not know Aixi's state? However, he did not modify the rules. If he increased the rest time for no reason, or overturned the previous rules and gave Aixi the Healing Spring even if it failed, it would easily make Aixi develop thoughts of slackness.

However, Li Zhangsheng also had his own way of dealing with it. As long as Aixi could not continue training, he would take the initiative to find reasons to passively increase Aixi's rest time.

The physique of a Demon Pet far exceeds that of a human, especially in terms of physical recovery. As long as there is enough rest time, there is almost no need to worry about training them to the point of collapse.

While Aixi was gnawing on the Fairy Food, Li Zhangsheng began to massage it to invigorate its Qi and blood, avoiding excessive soreness in its body that would affect its state.

Under Li Zhangsheng's massage, Aixi couldn't help but show a comfortable expression. Feeling the soreness in its body gradually fade away, the dissatisfaction in its heart had long since vanished.

A Demon Pet's physique is frighteningly good. Under the Fairy Food and massage, Aixi's physical strength recovered rapidly, and there were even signs of further improvement in its physique.
