Chapter 73 - Last Three (2)

Luo Shue would also sometimes sell some pills through Lotus Pavilion on behalf of Yaodu. Lotus Pavilion eventually became known as the best place to find rare pills. They took no action to stop the spread of this information, but instead help spread it further. First, it was great business advertisement. Second, it was true. Third, it brought in more profit for not only the pills but also all the other items. Medicinal herbs and fruits were not as pricey as pills on average. This was because once someone bought medicinal herbs or fruits, unless they were pill masters themselves, they still had to find someone to refine the pills for them. After all medicinal herbs and fruits still had impurities, and sometimes poison in them, such as in the case of the Skull herbs. So, they could not be consumed directly. Only pills would allow for minimal risk and maximum benefits. That's why the price of pills were higher and people were willing to pay more.
