Chapter 11: Someone Above Me

"Just some small breakthroughs."

Ji Ming raised the corners of his mouth, leaned back in the chair and shrugged, seeming to be satisfied with Renault's reaction.

Renault pondered for a long time and handed the menu in his hand to the waiter on the side.

"Go and get ready, don't keep our guests waiting."

It wasn't until he sent the others away that he spread his palms helplessly.

"As I just said, the escort team in my hands is really under a lot of pressure recently."

"I want this bottle, please give me a price."

Because of financial constraints, Ji Ming in the setting occasionally boils some extra rejuvenating liquid and sells it to supplement the household income.

But it’s my first time here, and it’s a dirty place like Sunshine City, so business is not that easy.

After biting the bullet and suffering several losses, he finally got to know Renault, who was relatively reliable.

Although this goblin is equally greedy and hateful, he is a businessman who abides by the rules and has far-sightedness, and will not do anything stupid like killing the goose that lays the goose.

Ji Ming went out this time to eat, but also to ensure that this transaction channel remained open.

So he just shook his head and said calmly.

"I'm not here to sell medicine. This bottle is for you."

"deliver?"

Having worked hard in Hesse for many years, Renault knows exactly what the most expensive thing in the world is.

"What do you want from me?"

He narrowed his eyes, and instead of showing joy on his face, he immediately became vigilant.

Ji Ming laughed and opened his white robe hidden under his black coat.

"Mr. Renault, do you think I am a famous miracle doctor in Sunshine City?"

Under the illumination of the wall lamp, a row of beautiful red colors flashed on his lined pockets, like expensive red wine or fresh plasma.

Renault was immediately caught in the gaze and almost forgot to breathe.

As a greedy goblin who likes to have everything in his own hands, he had actually talked to Ji Ming about acquiring the formula.

But what is surprising is that even though he offered a high price of dozens of gold coins, he broke the truth into pieces and lobbied repeatedly.

This cowardly doctor, who was always robbed by masked gangsters and looked poor and shabby, refused to agree, resolutely refusing time and time again.

And now?

He actually took several bottles of high-quality rejuvenation liquid alone and took the initiative to come to Renault Tavern, arrogantly trying to negotiate with him!
It was mid-afternoon and there was no one in the tavern.

Renault's little hands with sharp nails couldn't help but squeeze tightly, and the thought of snatching arose in his heart.

But it wasn’t passion that got Renault to where he is today.

He quickly calmed himself down and regained his ability to think.

Thinking about it carefully, the difference between Ji Ming today and his impression is too big.

Where does the courage and confidence for a weak pharmacist with no foundation come from to be so confident?

Renault quietly glanced outside the tavern and vaguely smelled a hint of conspiracy.

Who taught him, or in other words, who supported him?

All of this can only lead to one conclusion in the end

- There's someone on top of him.

Renault, who had made up his mind and was unwilling to act rashly, decided to give up first.

"Oh my Dr. Ji, how long have we been old friends?"

The goblin merchant calmly released his palm and smiled the most enthusiastically.

"Stop playing riddles and tell us your conditions quickly. We can all talk about it!"

"What are the conditions, Mr. Renault?"

Ji Ming quietly moved away the left hand hidden in his sleeve and aimed at Renault's neck. Ji Ming put down his clothes and asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"I told you, this bottle is for you, just to commemorate our great friendship." Damn it, how can this kid be more greedy than me! ?
Renault controlled his anger and grinned like a toothache.

"Dr. Ji, I thought you had seen my sincerity..."

But only halfway through his words, his eyes lit up and he understood what Ji Ming meant.

He stretched out his thumb and praised loudly.

"Of course you are one of the most powerful doctors in our Sunshine City. I always say this when I meet other friends."

"As expected, I told you how my reputation has been getting better and better recently."

Ji Ming's smile grew stronger, and he raised his glass to signal him.

"Mr. Renault is so complimentary. This glass is my toast to you!"

After saying that, he raised his neck and drank it all in one gulp, and the atmosphere between the two suddenly relaxed.

Renault breathed a sigh of relief, licked his lips and rubbed his hands.

"To be sure, I'll give you four silver coins for a bottle of this grade, okay?"

Ji Ming frowned.

"That's too little for you, do you think I'm tricking a kid into giving you sugary water?"

The conversation started, and then there was the step-by-step bargaining, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.

"Ten silver coins for a bottle of high-quality products is too expensive. I can only accept five!"

"Please be accommodating. I also run a small business. I can't compare with the big shots in the inner city."

"Six coins, this is the bottom line. At worst, I'll treat you to this meal, okay?"

"Okay, even if it's just for our friendship... seven coins, seven coins, deal!"

In the end, Ji Ming sold all the remaining bottles of high-quality products, two bottles of qualified products, and five bottles of inferior products, in exchange for sixteen silver coins.

It's safe to be safe, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Maybe this is the difference in personal ability.

Some people are strong enough to change the environment, while others have to fall several times just to stand in the wind.

Making some money for yourself is like drinking water, but Ji Ming in the setting has to worry about a debt of only fifty silver coins.

"Dr. Ji, how about you look at this treasure of mine?"

After the transaction was completed, Renault, who was still unfinished, took out something from his pocket with a mysterious look on his face.

"Magic scroll! I got this from the Glow Kingdom."

It was a small scroll tied with red string, and the light yellow smooth paper looked quite extraordinary.

It felt like sheepskin, and Ji Ming slowly unfolded it after taking it.

Several complex and mysterious patterns cover the center of the drawing paper, reflecting a faint shimmer with special blue ink.

I can't read it, but I'm shocked.jpg
Ji Ming pushed up his glasses as if nothing had happened.

[Props: Pyroblast Scroll]

[A magical scroll that records a shot of "Second Ring Magic·Pyroblast" will automatically prepare the corresponding magic and send it out after being triggered]

The second ring must be an advanced magic that can only be learned by a formal mage of level [-] or above.

As long as you have this scroll, even a non-professional can release one-time magic.

It is very useful for sneak attacks and life-saving, and the materials are expensive, so it is quite expensive, so it can be regarded as a quite valuable gift.

"Dr. Ji, this is the gift I plan to give you."

Renault spoke sincerely.

"I just hope that if you have extra potions in the future, you can come to me first to sell them."

However, Ji Ming remained silent as if he hadn't heard anything, and just kept staring at the scroll in his hand.

Because he just realized a very important issue.
