Chapter 67 For the centenary cause of Baicaotang
"Cooperation? Why do you want to cooperate with a bad old man like me?"
Guanshi He handed the twenty-five spirit stones to Lu Xuan and asked curiously.
"There are twenty or thirty spiritual planters in Baicao Hall, which means there are more diseased spiritual plants behind them."
“These spiritual plants have been invaded by alienated demonic insects and polluted by turbid spiritual energy, causing all kinds of strange symptoms.
If you can't find the problem, no matter how much time and energy you spend, you can only watch them become diseased and wither to death. "
"So I have a vague idea. Instead of letting them wait for death quietly, it is better to buy those diseased spiritual plants from the spiritual plant masters at a low price and try to save them."
"I don't know most of the spiritual planters that Baicaotang works with, so I want Mr. He to connect them and find those diseased spiritual plants for me at a low price."
As the manager of Baicaotang, the thin old man is responsible for purchasing and inventorying various elixirs and spiritual plants. Whether they are full-time employed spiritual planters or those who work freely, they are all closely connected.
Not to mention, the old man himself had a deep love for Lu Xuanen, so he wanted to take this opportunity to repay him.
"Acquiring diseased spiritual plants? I really don't know what you think, you actually do such a ridiculous thing."
He Guanshi frowned. Other spiritual plant masters were very secretive about diseased spiritual plants. Before they could hide, Lu Xuan wanted to take the initiative to get in, which puzzled him.
"Are you sure you can control and treat those diseased spiritual plants? Are you not worried that your own spiritual plants will be implicated and the acquisition will result in a loss?"
"The spiritual plants I plant will definitely be isolated from those diseased spiritual plants and will not be affected."
"As for purchasing spiritual plants at a low price, I would like to get them for free, but it is probably difficult to do so. After all, spiritual planters spend so much time and energy cultivating spiritual plants. Even if they are diseased, they are still lucky and unlikely to give them up. Give it to others.”
"Of course I can't guarantee a 100% success rate when it comes to treating diseases with spiritual plants. It's only a certain possibility, but it should still be profitable."
Lu Xuan said.
"It's easy to help you connect with those spiritual planters. Most of them probably want to get rid of those diseased spiritual planters. If someone buys them at a low price, they will naturally be willing to stop their losses."
"But what is your standard for low price? How much is my remuneration?"
Manager He was obviously a little interested. He looked around and pulled Lu Xuan into a corner.
"The acquisition standard is probably 10% of the value of mature spiritual plants. There is a certain amount of room for fluctuation depending on the degree of disease and growth status."
"As for the reward for you old man, it will be calculated directly based on the quantity. One spiritual stone for each first-grade spiritual plant, and four spiritual stones for each second-grade spiritual plant. What do you think?"
Lu Xuan's main acquisition targets are first- or second-grade disease spiritual plants. It is estimated that few people in the entire Baicao Hall are planting third-grade spiritual plants, and the quantity is very small.
As for the low-grade spiritual plants, their value is extremely low, and there is no light group reward. You can't earn many spiritual stones just by relying on the recovered spiritual plants, so they are not within the scope of his consideration.
"One spirit stone or four spirit stones per plant..."
He Guanshi lowered his head and pondered.
"Then I won't be polite to you, brat. I promise to contact and persuade every spiritual planter in Baicao Hall."
"It's not because of those few spiritual stones, but simply because of the spiritual plants in their spiritual field. After all, those spiritual plants in Baicao Hall have ownership or priority."
"It is related to the century-old cause of Baicaotang, and there is no room for negligence."
The thin old man said righteously.
"That's right, for the centenary cause of Baicaotang!"
Lu Xuan quickly agreed.
The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.
"You sit here for a while, and I'll go see if there are any strange spiritual plants in the medicine garden in the hall."
With the opportunity to easily earn spiritual stones, He Guanshi became very motivated.
Baicaotang has several medicinal gardens under its name, one of which is not far from Baicaotang. There are more than ten kinds of elixirs suitable for refining elixirs grown in it.
Lu Xuan only had a free cooperative relationship with Baicaotang, but the medicine garden was of great importance. He couldn't go in with him, so he had to sit in the hall and wait quietly.
The medicine boy who handled the elixir next to him was very discerning, and he diligently brought a cup of steaming elixir tea and a small plate of elixir fruit.
The spirit fruit is about the size of a fingertip, lavender in color, with an uneven surface. It looks ordinary, but tastes extremely sweet and delicious.
Lu Xuan threw them into his belly one by one, and soon ate most of them.
In a spacious medicine garden.
The area of the medicine garden is dozens of times larger than the small courtyard owned by Lu Xuan. There is a mountain with a height of tens of feet, and a small river full of spiritual energy lingers at the foot of the mountain.
At this time, in the sky above the medicine garden, a white spiritual energy shield covered the entire garden, and spiritual energy flashed across the surface of the shield from time to time.
The thin old man took out a wooden sign with strange runes painted on it. The spiritual energy on the shield suddenly gathered. Sensing the aura on the wooden sign, a crack appeared quickly that could allow one person to pass through.
While the crack was still open, Guanshi He entered the medicine garden sideways.
He looked around and quickly located a spiritual field not far away.
There were three spiritual planters gathered around Ling Tian, and they were discussing something intensely. Their faces were all gloomy.
"How have things been in the past two days? No new pathological changes have been found, right?"
Manager He walked up to the three people and asked.
"Under the full protection of the second-grade top-level formation, no new diseased spiritual plants have been discovered yet."
"However, it is not an option to continue like this. The second-grade formation must be maintained day and night to protect such a large area of the medicine garden. The amount of spiritual stones spent is not a small amount."
A slightly fat spiritual planter came out and said.
"How are the diseased spiritual plants discovered before? Have you found any solutions?"
Manager He nodded, looked at the three people and said.
"Those diseased spiritual plants have been isolated, but the degree of the disease is getting deeper and deeper, and there is no way to find out the principle of their disease. I can only blindly encounter a dead mouse, relying entirely on luck."
"There is nothing we can do about it. In the past, Fang City was protected by foundation-building monks and third-grade formations, so similar situations would never happen, so it was difficult to react for a while."
"In addition, the way evil spirits invade is unpredictable and difficult to guard against. It's already good to be able to defend it well."
When the three spiritual plant masters heard this, they looked deeply concerned.
"I have a good friend who is also a spiritual planter. You may also know him. In order to find a way to get rid of the diseased spiritual plants, he wants to buy some spiritual plants that have been contaminated by invasion at a low price."
"What do you think?"
The three people's eyes lit up and their minds suddenly became active.
The only reason why they were reluctant to part with those diseased spiritual plants was that they did not want to waste their previous efforts. Now they heard that someone wanted to purchase the diseased spiritual plants. Even if the price was not high, there was a new choice.
