Chapter Forty-Seven More and More and Even More

  "There's a couple in our book club who are actually dating... Ajiu, how could you do this?! There are only about ten girls in our group and you've taken one away?! Alright, let's get serious. Summoning recommendation tickets, Sanjiang votes, click to collect, please everyone support us, thank you!"

  One lesson is one thousand gold coins, and there are six lessons in total, which means a full six thousand gold coins!

  It's great, it's powerful. At the moment I heard this number, Ye Ge almost slid to the foot of the table, what a joke! Even if our dark elf's secret medicine is precious, it's not worth 6,000 gold coins, let alone as a finished product.

  The problem is, women never consider the price when shopping, especially when it's not their own money. So Lady Elizabeth nodded repeatedly and intimately grasped Lord Ford's arm, as if she had grabbed a human wallet: "No problem, I'm happy to pay for this, dear little Ford, you'll be delighted to give me this gift, won't you?"

  "Can I say no?" Viscount Ford's heart ached as if it was bleeding, his forehead covered in cold sweat and his whole body trembling. "Dear Lin, this is too expensive! If it were a finished elixir, 6,000 gold coins would be acceptable, but you're just teaching a few lessons on potion-making and you're asking for so much tuition? This is outrageous!"

  "Expensive? How can it be expensive?" Lin Taiping looked at him with an innocent face, "Viscount, in our Eastern world there is a proverb that says 'giving someone fish is not as good as teaching them how to fish'. The quantity of the enchanting secret medicine is limited and will eventually run out. But if all you ladies learn how to refine it, from now on you can produce it endlessly. Isn't this a wonderful thing?"

  "That makes sense, it really does." Dozens of ladies nodded in unison, their eyes filled with tender affection as they gazed at Lin Taiping. He was indeed a master from the East, completely different from the male chauvinists here, truly gentle and considerate, knowing just what women want.

  "And isn't it more fun to make it yourself than to just buy the medicine?" Lin Taiping continued to ramble on, this was already one of his racial talents, "Think about it, when you've gone through great pains and troubles to make a potion full of love, and personally pour it into the soup, watching your loved one slowly drink it down... Mmm, isn't that just so romantic?"

  It's just that, dozens of ladies and girls expressed their deep approval, took a deep breath, closed their eyes unintentionally, and fantasized about that wonderful scene.

  Right away, without even Lin Taiping's prompting, they immediately turned around and grabbed the humanoid wallet next to them who wanted to escape, "Dear, don't you want to give me a little gift? Don't you love me anymore?"

  Tears streaming down their faces, a group of hapless male aristocrats were overcome with sudden and intense regret, regretting why they had come to this welcoming banquet, and even more so for bringing their wives or mistresses along - it was like lining up to enter the slaughterhouse.

  In fact, Viscount Ford, who was forced to take out his wallet, almost cried. The income of the territory for half a year was all squandered by this prodigal daughter, and the expensive medicine bought back was used to deal with herself. Is there anything worse than this in the world?

  The answer is yes!

  "Because in the next moment, Lin Taiping clapped his hands again and continued with a smile: 'Noble lady, beautiful miss, I have another good news to announce. In fact, apart from this enchanting secret medicine, the Dark Spirit Clan also has several magical medicines that are worth learning to refine, such as...'"

  "For example?" The ladies who were fiercely competing for the right to distribute the secret medicine suddenly turned their heads in unison.

  "No!" Dozens of male nobles groaned in agony again, now with only one thought in mind: to directly pick up the plates on the table and first knock that despicable Lin unconscious, then knock themselves out as well.

  In their sorrowful and angry gazes, Lin Taiping continued to dig slowly and steadily, taking one bottle after another of medicine from Ye Ge's hands and arranging them neatly on the table.

  "Look at this silver-white medicine, you should all know that the dark elves have lived in the jungle for many years, and their skin can't help but be scratched by thorns and leave scars. This silver-white medicine can make their wounds heal without leaving any scars..."

  "And, this golden potion, do you know why the Dark Elves' skin is so smooth? Yes, because they add a few drops of it to their bath water every day, making women's skin as smooth and soft as ivory, shining with an enticing glow..."

  "Of course, the black potion next to it is also good. Has anyone seen a fat and swollen Dark Elf? I think you haven't, do you know why? The answer is because of the magical effect of this potion..."

  And so, as bottle after bottle of the elixir was brought out, and with that TV shopping-like sales pitch, the noblewomen present all fell into a state of frenzy, uttering cries of amazement one after another, rushing forward in a flurry, as if they wanted to pounce on the table and take home all these lovely potions.

  "Not for sale!" Lin Taiping refused as usual, then added with a smile, "Of course, Ye Ge will be happy to teach you how to make these medicinal concoctions, but I must declare one thing first: all the materials needed for the medicinal concoctions must be prepared by yourselves. Any questions?"

  Not a single problem, dozens of ladies and girls nodded desperately, surrounded by Ye Ge in three layers inside and out, everyone's eyes were filled with desire for knowledge, constantly asking their own questions, to be honest, even when they were in the noble women's school, they had never been so eager to learn.

  On the contrary, Viscount Ford next door was lamenting in unison, although it's unclear what content these pharmaceutical courses will be taught, one thing is certain - expensive!

  "Expensive? How can it be expensive?" Lin Taiping smiled kindly and slowly explained to everyone present, "All the pharmacy courses add up to a total of seven days of training time, divided into twelve detailed courses, including material selection, refining, fire control, etc., etc... In total, we only charge 3,000 gold coins!"

  Pfft, Lord Fawkes and his cohorts are spewing blood left and right, almost dyeing the floor red. It's outrageous! They dare to charge us 3,000 gold coins for a mere seven-day course, claiming it's worth more than studying at the Magic Academy itself.

  But their grievances were completely ignored, dozens of noble ladies excitedly raised their hands one after another, indicating that they were very interested in participating. As for the tuition... Darling, don't you want to see me become even more beautiful? What? You dare to shake your head? If you have the ability, shake it again and let me take a look, go back and kneel on broken glass!

  So, a group of nobles could only cry and pay up, they finally realized that sometimes having too many lovers was also a terrible thing, such as the unlucky Viscount Ford, who brought four lovers to the welcome banquet tonight, and then he thoroughly tragic.

  "Calm down, calm down, you'll get used to it slowly." Lin Taiping collected the money with a cramped hand and didn't forget to pat Lord Forte's shoulder to comfort him. "By the way, there's another kind of magical voodoo doll at Dark Elf's place that can be used to curse heartless scumbags. The price... is dazzling!"

  As soon as the words were spoken, before Viscount Fordson could rush up and fight to the death, Lin Taiping directly pulled up Ye Ge and flashed away, hugging a large pile of gold tickets and escaping to the banquet hall entrance, and with great satisfaction began to divide the money.

  "Like this... is this okay too?" Ye Ge had a whole bunch of golden tickets that could be used to fold paper airplanes, and was completely bewildered. Her two delicate pointed ears would stand straight up for a moment, then droop down in confusion, looking like they were about to smoke from being knotted up.

  No mistake, those three bottles of enchanting secret medicine are indeed very precious and rare. However, no matter how precious and rare they are, as long as you spend a few thousand gold coins, you can always get them made. But who would have thought that under the planning of that sinister guy, just teaching how to refine this secret medicine could earn 6,000 gold coins? And among the ladies present, there were at least dozens of them.

  But what's even more unbelievable is that even the daily potions that the Dark Elves have grown accustomed to using can bring out their maximum value, like that dark healing potion used to treat wounds, which only requires a few dozen gold coins in materials, but just because it can remove scars, there are actually people willing to spend thousands of gold coins to learn how to make it.

  "So this time, I won the bet?" Lin Taiping pinched her adorable pointed ears and stroked his chin with satisfaction. "Hmph, you wouldn't want to go back on your word, would you."

  Dizzy and disoriented, she stared blankly ahead, her mind in a muddle. She spun around in circles on the spot for over ten times before finally managing to clear her head. Taking an incredulous deep breath, she looked at Lin Taiping with a complex expression, stuttering: "Why? Why did I never think of it? How were you able to figure it out?"

  "Because, my brain isn't just for thinking about having kids." Lin Taiping habitually retorted, then before Ye Ge could frantically roll her eyes, he gently patted her shoulder, "Relax, it's just an appetizer, don't get so worked up."

  "I'm not excited at all!" Ye Ge's heaving bosom betrayed her words, indicating that she was indeed very excited. But just a few seconds later, after she understood Lin Taiping's sentence, she became even more excited, "Wait, what do you mean by appetizer? Are you saying that tonight's things aren't your real plan?"

  "Of course, the so-called medicine and training courses were just something I came up with on the spur of the moment." Lin Taiping smiled slyly at her, "Do you think that in this backward commercial town, taking a few training courses and swindling tens of thousands of gold coins from the pockets of dozens of nobles is the future of the Dark Elf clan?"

  It's great and powerful, Ye Ge was completely speechless, to the point where she was stunned for over ten minutes before stuttering and asking, "B-but, I don't quite understand, what else can our Dark Elves do?"

  "You can do a lot, of course, and Tulu and the others can also do a lot." Lin Taiping smiled and stroked his chin, as if thinking of something very interesting, and his eight white teeth slowly appeared again. "It's a very interesting and profitable plan, but I haven't thought it through yet, which island we should go to... wait!"
