Awakening of the Eastern Dragon
Xu Nan was naturally unaware of the situation at Lost Paradise.
After returning from the Himalayan Mountains, he devoted himself entirely to making the hair growth serum.
Watching batches of potions being finished and then bottled on the assembly line, Xu Nan felt a strong sense of accomplishment.
Unfortunately, this potion did not sell well at the Lost Paradise Trading Center.
After all, there are too many similar substitutes, and Ron Sorcerer is famous for his knock-offs, so it's really too difficult for Xu Nan to profit from them.
He thought about it and realized that it was unlikely he could cheat his own people, and he couldn't open up sales channels in China anytime soon. It seemed that the only opportunity to make use of waste was in another world.
So he opened the unstable portal and tossed a message in a bottle over. The portal recently recharged, and the message in a bottle could basically be used like WeChat for chatting.
[Xu Nan: Honey, do you need Hair Growth Serum?]
[Caesar:??? Did City Lord Xu mistype something?]
[Xu Nan: No, I just produced a batch of fast-acting potions. They're certified by Stephen Sang's alchemy techniques, and they're internal stock. I'll give you a 30% discount as a close partner.]
In the other world, Caesar was so angry he almost smashed the message in the bottle on the spot.
If she didn't still need Xu Nan's help, she really wouldn't have been able to hold back.
This City Lord Xu is so unreliable!
The talents sent over last time were indeed quite good, but this time the fat guy seems to be a complete jerk. That's fine, though. If the Glutton Bloodline really awakens successfully, he will be a very powerful warrior.
Her Icewind Territory is about to face an invasion by abyssal demons, and at this critical juncture, she urgently needs talents like Changfeng Tuo and Song Ying.
Or perhaps it's one of the unique weapons on Earth that Changfeng Tuo mentioned to her.
But Xu Nan actually wants to sell her Hair Growth Serum?
Before she could even reply in her anger, Xu Nan tossed her another note:
"Prince Caesar, we've known each other for a long time, and you've never described your appearance. Perhaps you have something you can't Unspeakable Secret? Actually, we're all men, and we all understand. Pressure is high, so premature ejaculation is normal."
"Okay, you might not understand the effects of my Hair Growth Serum, so I'll give you a free sample to try first."
Xu Nan was full of confidence in his potion. Although the recipe was nothing special, the ingredients he used were all harvested from the Azure Dreamland and were of the highest quality.
He tossed a bottle over.
On the other side, the Fourth Princess touched her long, black hair, her chest heaving with anger.
Her good manners led her to reply as follows:
"Since you're so confident in your Hair Growth Serum, why don't you try selling it to the demon army? I've heard that demons are all bald, probably because they've been losing their hair for so long!"
Upon seeing this, Xu Nan suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment!
That makes sense. Demons seem to be bald, and these abyssal creatures do nothing but fight all day long. They actually have quite a bit of commercial potential.
"Do you have a market for your products over in the abyss?"
Frustrated by a lack of connections, Xu Nan set his sights on the Fourth Princess.
When Caesar saw that Xu Nan was actually asking seriously about the sales prospects of the Hair Growth Serum among the demon army, he couldn't help but laugh in anger.
Just then, Changfeng Tuo returned from inspecting the territory's finances on her behalf and came over when he encountered this matter.
Changfeng Tuo carefully read Xu Nan's words, then looked at the Hair Growth Serum Xu Nan had tossed him over, and said solemnly:
"Your Princess, I actually think that Xu Nan may not be as superficial as he appears on the surface."
The Fourth Princess was still angry, but Changfeng Tuo had helped her a lot since he came to her territory, so her attitude was not bad. "What?"
Changfeng Tuo looked at the label on the Hair Growth Serum and pondered:
"I've been trying to figure out Xu Nan's personality lately, and I've found that he's incredibly reserved and secretly passionate. He's not a bad person at heart, but he's always sharp-tongued and kind-hearted."
Caesar calmly asked, "What gave you this misconception?"
Changfeng Tuo said in a low voice, "Do you remember that glutton he just shoved over there?"
Caesar paused for a moment, then nodded.
Changfeng Tuo's face lit up with excitement. "When I went to see him just now, he had fully awakened the bloodline of the Glutton, and his body fat can turn into a solid city wall at any time! I had someone test it, and in terms of siege warfare, this guy's combat talent is amazing. He's not just a human soldier, even the sergeant major in the demon army is no better than him!"
"So, Xu Nan only asked for the price of that small amount of Amethyst Pearl, which actually means he lost money!"
Caesar was slightly taken aback. "Then why did he do that?"
Changfeng Tuo pondered for a moment and said, "But he's afraid we'll feel indebted to him. Some people are just like that."
"But this Hair Growth Serum ..." The Fourth Princess was still somewhat aggrieved.
"Men, seize a demon prisoner and try!"
Changfeng Tuo's status has risen considerably recently, and immediately a guard brought over a demon.
Changfeng Tuo opened the Hair Growth Serum, casually dripped two drops of the potion onto the demon, and the next second, the areas where the Hair Growth Serum was applied began to grow hair wildly!
Even more terrifying things happened: the demon in the cage, unable to bear the intense itching, began to scratch the area where the hair was growing frantically.
The demon Changfeng Tuo itself to death on its chest and neck, and soon it had scratched itself to death with its claws!
The scene was extremely bloody and brutal!
The guards all looked panicked.
Caesar was also taken aback.
Only Changfeng Tuo revealed a knowing look. "You see, I knew Xu Nan's constant mention of whether the demon army had a market was for something else!"
"On the surface, he wants to open up the market for demon potions, but actually he wants to remind you to buy this potion to fight against the demon army!"
Caesar was bewildered. "This... this... is that really what he thinks?"
Changfeng Tuo was absolutely certain. "That's definitely what he's thinking!"
"He even promised to give you a 30% discount, isn't that practically a half-price sale or a free gift?"
"Actually, I've had complete faith in Xu Nan's character for a long time. I gave him a QQ number back then, pretending it contained the contact information for all the wealthy heiresses in the Jiangdong Area, but in reality, it was full of high-class... fallen women. But he hasn't questioned me yet, which proves that Xu Nan never logged into that QQ number!"
"Adding to this the gluttony incident and the so-called Hair Growth Serum, these are repeatedly not acts of kindness in times of need! It is clear that this person, though seemingly shameless, is actually a gentleman!"
Caesar remained silent for a long time, his face showing shame.
"I misunderstood him!"
"Tell City Lord Xu that I want to buy at least three boxes!"
"I knew Caesar would be bald!"
Xu Nan saw that after she threw a bottle of Hair Growth Serum over, the other party's tone immediately changed, and they became even more convinced of her idea.
Three boxes at once? I don't have the appetite.
Xu Nan was thinking that next time she sent someone over, she should find someone who could bring more hair growth Hair Growth Serum, since it was still quite difficult to use the teleportation portal to directly transport large quantities of things, except for message in a bottle.
After the agreement was reached, Xu Nan put down his work and prepared to relax.
After all, work should be done in a balanced way!
He returned to his room and started browsing the internet, where he inadvertently found a note on the table.
"This note seems to have been left to me by Changfeng Tuo as his QQ number! I heard it's full of girls from prominent families in Jiangdong..."
Xu Nan's heart stirred, and he silently logged in.
Three minutes later, Xu Nan stepped back, her face flushed.
"The life of the rich is simply debauched! Poverty has indeed limited my imagination."
"We've only been chatting for a few minutes, and she's already sending these kinds of pictures, and even wants to video chat..."
"Their words are far too ambiguous and provocative... I can't afford to mess with them!"
After silently criticizing the lifestyle of the upper class, Xu Nan carefully put the note away.
It's getting late; it's about time to enter the Azure Dreamland to grind reputation.
This dungeon may seem to offer little benefit, but Xu Nan knew that since it was a place where Divinity Being roamed, raising his reputation would definitely bring great rewards in the future.
He glanced at the group chat and saw that everyone seemed to have fallen asleep and gone to play games, leaving him all alone.
He tossed and turned in bed for a while, then painfully discovered a problem!
Because "the Wise Men Never Sleep," he cannot sleep!
What's more troublesome is that this skill seems to be impossible to turn off. Does this mean I'll never be able to enjoy the pleasure of sleep again in my lifetime?
He posted a message in the group. "Insomnia, feeling terrible."
I was surprised that someone actually replied!
[Qin Lele: Is this an invitation for me to sleep with you? Here I come!]
Xu Nan was surprised. Why hadn't this girl gone to Azure Dreamland yet?
"Lord City Lord, I'm a professional at serving you in bed! I'm very good at lullabies, they can help you fall asleep quickly!"
The knocking had already started; Xu Nan couldn't very well turn away a young woman coming over in the middle of the night.
Furthermore, Qin Lele was wearing pajamas, which made her appear completely unapproachable.
As soon as she entered, she started singing a lullaby around Xu Nan. Unfortunately, although her voice was nice, her singing was really hard to hear. Xu Nan not only lost all sleepiness but even wanted to laugh.
"Comrade Qin Lele, you call this professional?"
Before he could finish speaking, a sharp pain shot through the back of his neck, and his vision went black as he fainted.
Qin Lele looked at Xu Nan's fallen body with an innocent expression:
"I'm definitely a professional at using surprise attacks!"
In Azure Dreamland.
Even after transforming into a hardworking oriole, Xu Nan still felt a throbbing pain at the back of his head. Unfortunately, there were turkey overseers in the Azure Dreamland, so he couldn't seize any opportunities. Even if he did, the oriole was no match for Qin Lele's giant eagle.
He could only swallow his anger and continue grinding reputation.
He has learned a lot of techniques for transporting Blue Crystal and has also taken the time to collect a lot of magic potions, which makes Xu Nan feel that the blow he received was worthwhile.
By the time the project was completed, Qin Lele and Bei Feng's reputation had reached around 2000, while Xu Nan's was still hovering around 300.
This made him question the meaning of life.
Immediately afterwards, when Turkey A'Tu announced that work was done, Xu Nan was forcibly ejected from Azure Dreamland again.
The air around me was still crisp and clear. It seemed to be dawn, and I was probably still quite high up.
Xu Nan looked down, but it was pitch black and he couldn't see anything.
"Sigh, let's use Baidu Maps to locate it."
Xu Nan had a bit of a headache. He hoped it would be somewhere around H City, but not somewhere near the Himalayan Mountains.
But the next second, his face froze.
Meanwhile, the Quest Card also refreshed.
