    He wouldn't be having this problem if he'd just clearly stated a price, gone off to prepare the medicine "from his personal stock," and then dipped the needles in a mysterious (but harmless) concoction before carrying out her treatment. Treatment would still have been over in under an hour, but he'd have his 20m and could scam anyone else that came along with a more relaxed mind ;)

    Wow just wow, he's a transcendent alright. LOL, couldn't he touch the earth and learn of any buried treasures? xD Now I'm afraid, there will be more of these in the future, more blunders for comedic effect.

    I wonder if he'll be able to convince Sun Qiang that he wasn't raped ;)

    Seriously, this author and ending his chapters on a high note. If I ever met him, I would hug him for his great novel, then kick him in the balls, for always giving me blue balls.

    He really loves saying cryptic things right as the chapter ends.
    Too much luck involved and he needs too much money in too short of a time. A much safer bet would have been to get the money from another Alchemist in exchange for helping them correct some of their flaws. He's already proven himself to them so it wouldn't even be hard sell. It would, however, be less entertaining for us.

    Well I'm sure he had this idea cause he thought he might need it later on and a "master teacher" would be better than just "master alchemist".
    Also well, just cause it might be "safer" doesn't mean he'll be able to get the money in time, since like how many alchemists are there in that city that are high enough in experience and status to have that extra cash lying around, I mean cmon refer back to the pill debate, would you really think you could get the money you need from those guys?(especially since they might see that chance to continue offering their elder sisters to you)

    well in other words I'm equating his current scheme to a 'high risk, high return'
    with that safe option being 'low risk, low return'

    Given the way that the prices were presented to him, the alchemists would view that amount of money as trivial and would have no trouble paying it. As for them choosing not to pay it, he's already proven that he's more than capable of shattering their reputations on a whim, so fear will keep them in line if greed does not. Or he could just get the money in advance.

    Sun Qiang will probably die the day he goes back to being a merchant if he carries that attitude with him ;)

    I wonder why his son is having so much trouble with this given the MC's supposed status. I wouldn't think it would even need to be explained so long as he believed that the MC was a master teacher.

    I wonder how much more money the MC could have made if he had a cloning technique and could have been his own butler ;)

    It would be funny if the next chapter started with that guy asking for payment for those pill bottles ;)

    I feel guilty over him scamming this Du guy's family's life savings. I hope the mc doesn't keep all the money. At least leave them enough to live a comfortable life

    Am I the only one who feels something off when they used "forging" for pills instead of "refining"?

    I still don't have that good of an idea for what apothecaries do. From what I've gathered from this and a will eternal, they analyze plants and push plants together hard enough till the join together or something. I don't think they use fire like alchemists. I'm confused

    lol, that was super awkward. I wonder how he'll turn that one around ;)

    They're basically lower quality Alchemists as far as I can tell. Either that, or they're the same thing and the translator/author is just using a different term from the norm.

    Also, if you go back to the Pill Debate, I'm certain that they did say that they used fire. In fact, he chastised one of them for using the fire improperly and dropping the quality of the pill.

    I wonder how much information his host will be able to gather from the holes the MC left in his study ;)

    Also, I think that spear art may be a bit too OP to just be handing it out to someone too weak to protect it...

    Chapter 145: Wow, what the hell? How fast does he flip through books?

    He got through "a total of a few thousand books, within an hour". An hour only has 60 minutes, or 3600 seconds. That's around 1 book per second. That's ridiculous! :eek::eek:

    Also, isn't it pretty ridiculous how easy he comprehends things? The Library should only point out the flaws and compile the most efficient books based on the things he has read, so it shouldn't directly impact his talents directly, should it? Why is he able to put things into practice so quickly? o.0

    Dude,

    Here's a novel where the MC has a library in his head , that are filled with contents of the books that he glance.
    I think its safe to say that somebody threw logical thinking out of the window, you wont find one here.
