"Damn it. Why aren't there any Golden Scale fruits?"
Ye Haoran typed on the keyboard in frustration, his eyes constantly searching through the list of medicinal herbs.
The website he was using was the national spiritualist official trading website, which facilitated the trading of resources between spiritualists.
Ordinary medicinal herbs could be found on it, but there was no information about the Golden Scale fruit.
"Could it be that this medicinal herb has gone extinct?"
Ye Haoran suddenly had this thought.
After all, he didn't know when his system's database was updated. What if it gave him an impossible mission?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. He quickly went on a search engine and started searching.
He entered a few keywords and the relevant information popped up.
[Golden Scale fruit is a type of crop that can only be grown in the scorching field in alternate dimensions. It is mostly consumed by intermediate level vicious beasts to strengthen their fire attribute abilities.
At present, no additional effects have been found on humans and contract spirits. It has not been listed in the national effective medicinal herb list.]
Ye Haoran slowly read the words on the screen and heaved a sigh of relief.
Having no medicinal value meant that no one would harvest them and he could not buy them at all on the market. He could only go to alternate dimensions to find them.
Nevertheless, at the very least, there was still a way to obtain them, which was better than them being extinct.
Ye Haoran switched to a web page and searched for information about the alternate dimension.
[Scorching field: A 1-star alternate dimension.]
[Types of vicious beasts: Fiery Lizard, Flame Bird and Red Beetle]
[Level of vicious beasts: Low beginner rank to low intermediate rank. Beast Emperors in this alternate dimension can reach high intermediate rank.]
[Location: Cloud Star Mountain of Huaguang City]
Ye Haoran scratched his head. Beginner rank vicious beasts were equivalent to spirit apprentices, while intermediate rank vicious beasts were on par with spiritualists.
From the looks of it, it would be perilous for him to venture there at his current strength.
It was safer to bring someone along.
He took out his phone and dialed Su Chen's number.
"Ye Haoran, what's the matter?" answered Su Chen's lazy voice, accompanied by loud music. He was obviously partying.
"Su Chen, are you interested in doing something big with me?"
Ye Haoran cleared his throat and then said excitedly, "Let's venture to an alternate dimension. What do you think?"
Su Chen was speechless.
He was obviously silent for a while. Then, he said, "Tsk. Are we going there to become food for the vicious beasts? Is this a trap you set up to get rid of your friends?"
Ye Haoran shook his head and then said in a low voice, "Well. I was thinking since your family is wealthy, maybe your father can assign a great spiritualist as our bodyguard when we explore the alternate dimension."
"Forget about it. I advise you to take some medicine and calm down. I still want to flirt with girls. Bye."
Su Chen directly hung up the phone, leaving Ye Haoran alone to sigh.
"The path of the strong has always been shunned by others."
The weekend came again. Ye Haoran arrived at Beitong National Pharmaceutical Corporation early the next morning.
Ye Haoran put on his lab coat, stood in front of the mirror, and muttered to himself, "I am still so handsome."
"Hello, are you done looking at yourself?"
A resentful female voice came from behind him and slowly said, "If you're done, please make way. We need to take the elevator."
Ye Haoran turned around and saw a group of people standing behind him, all staring at him bitterly.
He took a closer look and realized that the mirror he was looking at was the elevator door.
Who cleaned the elevator door so well until it was so reflective?
Ye Haoran laughed dryly to ease the awkwardness and returned to his work station under everyone's gaze.
Taking out the materials that he had prepared earlier, Ye Haoran skillfully made five bottles of strength potion.
Due to the side effects of the strength potion being too great, it was only sold as a life-saving item, limited to 20 bottles a day.
The price of one bottle was set at 50,000 yuan, and Ye Haoran's share of the profit was 100,000 yuan a day.
In addition to the 10,000 yuan he earned from his work, he earned 110,000 yuan a day. He could be considered a middle-class man.
After finishing his work, Ye Haoran chuckled and clocked out, leaving a group of envious people.
They thought to themselves, "We just started work, and yet you are already getting off work?"
They were not afraid of others working overtime to earn more than them, but it was frightening when someone only worked two hours a day to earn several times more than what they earned in nine!
Ye Haoran walked to the hall on the first floor just in time to see the improved strength potion being sold.
Although there were only 20 bottles sold a day, hundreds of people came to buy them.
Everyone was trying their best to squeeze their way towards the sales counter, afraid that they would leave empty-handed and waste a trip.
"Stop pushing. Everyone will get their turn!" the staff shouted over a big megaphone.
"I don't believe you. How could there be enough stock for everyone?"
Someone pleaded, "Brothers, give me a chance. I waited in line for more than an hour yesterday and couldn't get a bottle."
Another person replied, "Get lost. I've queued for two hours today!"
Nobody relented. Two burly men were trying especially hard. They squeezed in with all their might, causing the door frame to creak.
"What?"
Ye Haoran thought that the two men looked familiar. He tried to recall who they were and instantly remembered them.
Weren't the two of them from the spirit team who had previously bought his potions from his stall?
From the looks of it, they had experienced a taste of having their strength doubled.
Ye Haoran's eyes twinkled as he suddenly thought of something.
The spirit team should be able to bring him into the alternate dimension!
Thinking of this, Ye Haoran walked to a girl at the edge of the crowd.
This girl was also a member of the spirit team. She could not squeeze her way in, so she had been cheering for her two teammates.
"It's you?"
The girl also noticed Ye Haoran and greeted him.
"Call your friend's back."
Ye Haoran pointed at two people in the crowd and whispered, "I'll get you a few bottles through the back door."
"Really?"
The girl excitedly handed the payment card to Ye Haoran and said, "We need five bottles."
Ye Haoran turned around and walked into the building, directly entering the sales counter from the back door.
After a while, Ye Haoran came back with five bottles of improved strength potion.
"Here are your potions."
Ye Haoran handed the medicine and payment card to the girl, and the two men who had been squeezing through the crowd just now also came over.
"Little brother, many thanks!"
The leader of the group, a burly man, said with a grateful expression, "I'm He Ning and this brother is Yu Fa. This girl is Guan Yueyue."
Yu Fa walked up and patted Ye Haoran's shoulder, saying, "Little Brother, that potion of yours has really helped us a lot! The day before yesterday, we met a mid intermediate rank vicious beast in an alternate dimension. Thanks to the medicine, we were able to kill it."
Hearing this, Ye Haoran quickly reminded them, "Strength potions have a lot of side effects. Is the person who took it okay?"
He Ning waved his hand and said, "It's fine if it's just a little side effect. We have a little trick to deal with it."
Just as Ye Haoran was about to speak, an angry roar suddenly came from the front of the crowd, "What? Someone took away five bottles and there are only two bottles left?"
When the people outside heard this, they became anxious. The people near the sales counter tried their best to squeeze forward, and complaints could be heard.
"How can there be people who go through the back door? What the hell!"
"If I catch the person who got in through the back door, I'll definitely beat him up!"
Members of the spirit team looked at each other in silence.
Upon hearing these words, Guan Yueyue's expression froze. She hurriedly put the five bottles of strength potions into her backpack.
She looked around and heaved a sigh of relief when she realized that no one was paying attention to her.
If they were found out to be the ones who got the potions through the back door, they would probably be beaten up if they met anyone hot-tempered!
