Chapter 197: Shadows Over Quancheng
As though a princess had fallen into hardship overnight, a tiger brought low on the plains.
While Lou Feng, in his self-isolated state, lamented how helpless the outside world was, Ji Jue felt that everything around him was full of excitement.
After a round of pleasantries, he had at least become familiar with everyone. With Ji Xue's introductions and recommendations, he also secured quite a few orders, establishing his first wave of clients.
With Tong Shan's example before them, having experienced the benefits of Master Ji's consecration, and then personally trying the equipment Ji Jue had modified and maintained, everyone naturally signed up eagerly.
These days, Chosen Ones were either broke as hell or filthy rich. Those working for the Security Bureau, who could get into the First Department and serve on Tong Shan's direct team, not one of them was poor people.
The First Department was difficult to enter and difficult to leave. With its stringent reviews, demanding requirements, and high standards came naturally high benefits.
But no matter how rich they were, they were not wealthy big shots like Tong Shan, who could use the entire Yacheng as a piggy bank. They still had to consider the returns when spending money.
It was not that they could not afford Third Department artisans. Master Ji simply offered better cost-effectiveness!
His work was high-quality, affordable, and plentiful.
For ordinary Alchemy Creations, customers could provide their own materials for processing. If they brought their own Blessing for the crafting, the labor fee was immediately twenty percent off.

Compared with those artisans who wore sour expressions throughout and haggled over every penny, Master Ji smiled the whole time.
