Chapter 358 Free Labor

After Jack arrived at Alex's office, they had a one-hour discussion about the Penguin Group's motives and decided to bring the filming of the Galaxy Girls forward.

That afternoon, Alex received a dinner invitation from Carlene Bolton, and he accepted it because he knew what her intentions were.

Carlene invited him to Happy Living restaurant, and Alex decided to head towards the Sakura Club after that because it was quite near to it and Flynn had also collected a lot of herbs today.

Alex agreed to Carlene's request immediately during dinner. He would give her family a chance to join the auction, but their success during the bid would rely entirely on their wealth and connections. After the dinner, Alex headed straight toward the Sakura Club.

Flynn had almost cleared the whole Nebula City of their stock of herbs, and Alex inspected the goods closely.

He said, "With the herbs we have right now, we can concoct the Pill of Revival and the Pill of Regeneration. However, those two pills are only meant for injuries, and they don't have any effect in improving one's inner strength."

"Injuries? What about the Pill of Vitality?" Flynn asked out of curiosity.

"Of course they can't be compared to the Pill of Vitality. Not only can the Pill of Vitality restore one's stamina, but it can also speed up the healing of broken bones. It really is a miraculous drug."

Alex shook his head and smiled. "However, the Pill of Vitality is mainly meant for injuries while the Pill of Regeneration and the Pill of Revival are meant for general illnesses and a general improvement of health."

Flynn's eyes sparkled as he beamed brightly. "That works too. We can sell it even if we don't have any use for it."

After he put some thought to it, Alex realized that Flynn's words made sense.

With some estimation, he determined that the raw materials of one batch of those two drugs cost about a few thousand while the drugs themselves could be sold for a much higher price. "Alright. I'll prepare a few batches for you to sell."

Alex nodded in agreement and decided that he wouldn't take a cent from Flynn and the rest once they earned a profit.

Recently, Flynn had wanted to shut down most of his illegal businesses to operate on the legal side of things, so his income was reduced drastically. As a result, his subordinates started to complain about it. He knew about the drugs' miraculous properties, so he was very excited at how they could be sold for a very high price.

"What do you think about me opening a drugstore?" Flynn wondered out loud as he stared at Alex expectantly.

Alex smiled helplessly. "Are you really gonna treat me as free labor?"

Flynn chuckled heartily. "You can take the lion's share of the profit. I'm fine with twenty or thirty percent

Alex smiled silently because he knew that was never going to happen. I don't even have the time to make drugs for him.

Besides that, I don't have high hopes for this industry anyway.

"Oh? There's a Dracaena plant here! See if there are any Prockia and Procris plants here! We can make a batch of Small Pills of Cultivation if we can replace them!" Alex said excitedly.

The materials for the Small Pills of Cultivation were Dracaena, Procris, Prockia, and ginseng of a hundred years or more. Dracaena was the rarest ingredient in the list, so Alex was surprised to replace out that Flynn had bought one of those.

They had the hundred-year ginseng, so only the Prockia and Procris plants were left.

The Small Pill of Cultivation had the effect of improving one's Mortal Force, improving one's muscular function, and treating all sorts of complications. When treating some serious sicknesses, it was even more potent than the Pill of Revival.

"Yeah, yeah. We have quite a lot of those." Flynn proceeded to procure the Prockia and Procris herbs.

"Alright. I'll start making the Small Pill of Cultivation. You can go and sort out the ingredients for the two other Pills."

As Alex said that, he lit up a fire and started to prepare the Small Pill of Cultivation.
