Chapter 653: Rich people have bad brains


    "The potion at the auction? It was developed and funded by me." Wu Heng replied.


    "Is there any more? I can buy it at the price at the auction." Virgil said solemnly.


    Wu Heng glanced at the other party and shook his head, "This kind of potion is difficult to make. It took us half a year to prepare five bottles."


    "Not a bottle left?"


    "There is no more bottle. The previous one has been used, and the rest have been put up for auction." Wu Heng said with certainty.


    "I can''t stay on Treasure Island, you see..., next time I have a chance..." Virgil said in a long tone.


    Wu Heng pondered for a moment and said: "I only organized and funded the research and development. There are other people inside. What I can do is get the news and write you a letter in advance to make preparations."


    Virgil hesitated to speak. No matter whether what the other party said was true or false, he had already said this, and he would definitely not be able to get the potion.


    As for using status to oppress others.


    Now with this kid''s attention, I may not be able to suppress him.


    If it gets too big, it will only make Master and Disciple Lu An very embarrassed.


    Moreover, there is some truth in what he said. This medicine could not have been developed by him.


    Either there are skeletons under his hands who understand alchemy. This is the most perverted thing about the Necromancer.


    The second point is that what he said is true. He cannot make full decisions on potions developed in cooperation with others.


    If the method doesn''t work, forget it.


    "Please inform me before the next auction."


    Wu Heng nodded, "Okay."


    Finished talking about potions.


    Virgil picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then said, "This time, the chief reason for coming here is ''Claudio'', the leader of the Hongwen Society. He is very satisfied with the pens and watches sold on Treasure Island. He asked me to come over to purchase them. This matter is very powerful." Island Master Heng should be fine, right?"


    The name of the leader of Hongwenhui was already mentioned, and Wu Heng really couldn''t refuse anymore.


    The other party mentioned the potion first, fearing that he might have thought up his words before coming.


    It’s hard for me to reject the opponent twice, so the potion has no chance. It’s impossible and impossible to get the pen and watch that have been on sale for so long!


    Moreover, he himself also joined the Hongwen Society and became a member of it.


    Wu Heng raised his eyebrows, glanced at Minnie beside him, and said, "Minnie, go to the factory and ask how many pens and watches you can get. I need an accurate quantity."


    "Yes, Master."


    Minnie nodded and left quickly.


    Wu Heng looked at the opposite side again, "Wait a moment, wait for the inquiry to come back."


    Virgil nodded, "There''s no rush."


    While waiting.


    Wu Heng also took this time and said, "Can you report to Hongwen that the professional scrolls are more inclined here."


    Within the association, professional scrolls are inscribed by scholars from the Hongwen Society and then distributed to resident associations in various places.


    For some reason, the number of scrolls on Treasure Island has never been very large.


    This time I just brought it up.


    Virgil said: "This matter is easy to handle. After I return, I will coordinate with the association and make adjustments."


    "Also, can we hold some courses on Treasure Island, such as literacy, alchemy, and weapon mastering courses? Originally, this place was full of pirates and their culture was not high. It would be better if there were some courses to improve them." Wu Wu Heng said again.


    "I can tell the superiors that with the current security and development of Treasure Island, there should be no problem." Virgil still happily agreed.


    This level of exhilaration made Wu Heng a little unable to react.


    He smiled and thanked, "That''s really troublesome Mr. Virgil."


    "These are all normal arrangements, no trouble." Virgil was still polite.


    The two chatted for a while, and Minnie hurried back from outside.


    He whispered a few words in Wu Heng''s ear, and then stepped aside again.


    Wu Heng said: "I can give Hongwen Huiyun 500 pens and 20 watches, but I need you to promise not to tell anyone. These are all from orders from other chambers of commerce. If the news spreads, it will not be good for me." credibility is affected.”


    Virgil nodded, "That''s no problem. After I get it, I will take it back to the association and it will not have any impact on Treasure Island."


    "That''s good." Wu Heng glanced sideways.


    Minnie stepped forward again and took out the fully packaged pen and watch from the space ring.


    Wu Heng smiled and said: "Mr. Virgil, check it out."


    Virgil nodded and took out the corresponding gold coins from the space ring.


    Both parties began to inspect the goods and count the coins.


    After confirming that there were no problems, I collected them all.


    Virgil stood up and said, "I won''t disturb the island owner anymore, and I will go back as soon as possible."


    Wu Heng also stood up, "When there is news about the potion, I will write to you in advance."


    "good."


    The two of them walked outside together, and Virgil said casually: "Recently, Hongwen Club is excavating an ancient site. It won''t take long before some ancient stone slabs will be distributed."


    Wu Heng raised his eyebrows slightly, "Do you have any explanation?"


    "There is no explanation. If you can decipher some, it will be regarded as a meritorious service. It doesn''t matter if you can''t decipher it. Just think of it as gaining some knowledge. It is difficult to decipher this kind of thing." Virgil said with a smile.


    "I understand." Wu Heng nodded.


    Send the other person out the door and wave goodbye.


    Virgil got into the carriage and left directly.


    Wu Heng also returned to the house, asked the maids to send the money back, and then returned to the study.


    …


    dusk.


    Shanara came back from outside. With a wave of his hand, a wooden box fell on the carpet. The lid of the box opened, revealing golden gold coins.


    "Don''t lose the gold coins from the auction, as well as some mortgaged objects, property deeds, and ship orders. Someone might come back to redeem them later."


    From this transaction, Wu Heng made a lot of money.


    Five bottles of first-level corpse core potion were sold for a sky-high price.


    Wu Heng stepped forward, picked up Shanara, and spun her around, "It''s great to have you."


    Shanara exclaimed, and out of the corner of her eye she saw the maids looking over here, their faces a little red.


    "Don''t make trouble, everyone is watching." Shanara gave him a light hammer.


    Wu Heng smiled, put her down, and said, "Leave the money with you. Just use it to make whatever arrangements you want."


    Shanara sat down aside, "Let it go to you. It won''t be good if I put too much money there. It will be treated as an asset of the Star Flower, and it will cost a lot of money."


    "That''s okay." Wu Heng continued to ask: "When will the next auction be held?"


    Shanara thought for a moment, "Let''s take a look at the feedback first. The longer it takes, the more precious the medicine is and the more stable the price. During this time, you can research some new products to keep Treasure Island popular."


    This exhibition and auction gave Shanara some interest in doing business again.


    Treasure Island is different from Star Flower.


    Star Flower is a chamber of commerce supported by a race, with a vast land and rich resources.


    But the products sold are similar to those of other chambers of commerce.


    The means of competition are quantity and price.


    Treasure Island is different. The three items on sale are revolutionary products, unique and very practical.


    Treasure Island''s harvest in the past few days has equaled the money earned by the Great Chamber of Commerce in a year.


    Unless Wu Heng dies, Treasure Island will definitely become the center of commerce.


    Your own status in business will also improve accordingly.


    Wu Heng scratched his head and said, "I''ll go back and think about it to see if there are any other popular products."


    "It''s okay if you can''t think of it. These are already amazing." Shannella said with a smile.


    A few people chatted for a while, and it was getting late.


    Wu Heng picked up Shanara and walked upstairs.


    The maids followed and started cheering behind.


    Shanela said: "What are you doing? I have to go back to rest today and go to the opera house tomorrow morning."


    "Get up early tomorrow, don''t delay."


    With that said, they entered the bathroom and sat in the tub together, laughing and playing around.


    …


    At dawn, Jinfan Tavern.


    Today there is a young bard.


    He told a newspaper story and then slapped the table.


    "The wealthy businessman took the potion, and veins popped up all over his body, and his skin turned black and purple, which quickly spread all over his body. Seeing this, other people around him stood up and backed away one after another, looking frightened."


    "Through the symptoms, everyone concluded that the medicine was poison, and the island owner set up a trap to defraud money and kill people."


    "We need to gather a crowd, go to the island owner''s mansion to ask for an explanation, and also report it to the association."


    "Just when everyone was in chaos."


    "The wealthy businessman who took the potion stood up from the ground and shouted, ''Wait a minute.''"


    "Everyone turned around and saw that the wealthy businessman had stood up. The black and purple veins on his body had faded, his wrinkles had faded, and he seemed to be more than ten years younger."


    "At this time, the wealthy businessmen and dignitaries present realized what kind of treasure they had missed, but it was already too late."


    "I regret it so much!"


    "This is what happens after the potion is auctioned."


    As the bard tells it.


    Everyone seemed to have seen the wealthy businessman fall to the ground after taking the potion, and then changed from old to young.


    This potion actually works.


    It can also make people younger.


    Then selling tens of thousands of gold coins seems not expensive.


    And those wealthy businessmen who still suspected that the island owner was cheating were regarded as ignorant outsiders by the residents of the island.


    That''s a great detective.


    He was the one who saved Miss Penny and joined the cult alone to avenge her.


    Would I lie to you about something like this?


    He actually doubted the island owner.


    Sure enough, rich people''s brains may not be easy to use.


    …


    Zombie world.


    Wu Heng stood outside the classroom and looked at the female technician with a bandage on her head.


    Standing in front of the blackboard, giving lessons to the twenty or so white skeletons below.


    The scene was a little scary.


    The voice of the female technician lecturing also kept trembling.
