Su Yuan hadn't picked the price of the Blue Pills—two thousand yuan each—out of thin air.
In the era of Universal Cultivation, the pill-refining and artifact-forging industries were highly developed. Take body-refinement pills, for example. Aside from muscle-building pills for beasts, there were actually quite a few body-refinement pills that could be legally purchased.
Their only drawback was that they were expensive.
So expensive that Su Yuan had never taken a single body-refinement pill.
Take the most popular Dragon Tendon and Tiger Bone Pill in the Qi Refining Realm. Its market price was around 3,500 yuan, and when prices were high, it could even reach 5,000.
The pill's effects lasted four hours, enhancing muscle strength and bone density.
But according to its product description, the combined effects it provided over those four hours still couldn't match what a Blue Pill did in two.
Still, this was a legitimate product. If Su Yuan sold Blue Pills for more than 3,000 yuan, he'd be going head-to-head with the Dragon Tendon and Tiger Bone Pill.
Most body refiners would rather settle for a weaker effect and pay a few hundred yuan more than buy from a private alchemist.
But if the price difference came close to a twofold gap... even if the pills put people in the hospital, they'd still praise the Blue Pills for their potency.
Besides, the System itself had said that pills refined with the Demonic Cultivation Technique · Finger Spirit contained no pill toxins, so they were absolutely safe.
And on top of that, making Blue Pills cost him practically nothing!
Selling one for 2,000 yuan meant 2,000 yuan in pure profit. What could the companies selling Dragon Tendon and Tiger Bone Pills possibly do to compete?
As expected, when Yang Wentao heard Su Yuan's price, he didn't look
