Douluo Continent: I came from Demon Slayer!

Chapter 83 Fishing and Baiting

It's not that Lin Yang is neglecting his duties, but rather that he needs to recoup his investment.

Developing a drug is a process that requires a huge investment, and he had already spent most of the gold soul coins he had obtained from Dai Ziming.

Although the core medicinal herbs all come from Dugu Bo's herb garden, some other materials must also be purchased from other places.

Moreover, even though Dugu Bo doesn't care, he can't always get something for free.

Fortunately, the Soul-Returning Potion and Soul-Burning Potion are not very effective for him, so promoting them won't touch too many sensitive nerves for some people.

It's the perfect tool for reaping wealth.

"Lin Yang," Ye Ling said, staring intently at him, "I want to cooperate with you on behalf of the Ye family."

Ye family?

Cooperation?

A strange glint flashed in Lin Yang's eyes. He casually sat down on the stone chair and raised his hand. "Let's sit down and talk. Before discussing cooperation, I'd like to ask... can you represent the Ye family?"

The Haitangye family is no ordinary small family. Although they usually keep a low profile, no one can deny the family's profound heritage.

Faced with Lin Yang's questioning, Ye Lengleng's expression remained unchanged, her voice still cold and unyielding, "Every generation of Ye family patriarch inevitably possesses the Nine-Hearted Begonia Martial Soul."

"Although I am not currently the clan head, my grandfather is the acting clan head, so I think I should be qualified to represent the Ye family."

Lin Yang nodded: "Of course, so how would you like to cooperate?"

"I also have a question for you."

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name: 20 ...

Lin Yang: "You go ahead."

"Can you mass-produce Soul-Returning Potions and Soul-Burning Potions? What is the production volume?"

"These are two issues."

Lin Yang looked at Ye Lingleng with a smile, but didn't seem to care. Instead, he replied, "Since I have the idea of ​​promoting it, the potion can naturally be mass-produced. As for the production volume—"

He paused, then gave a number: "Three thousand copies."

"A month?"

There was a clear hint of disappointment in Ye's cold voice.

Lin Yang's lips curled into a smile: "One day, each kind."

"How is that possible?"

Ye Lingling's expression changed, and she subconsciously exclaimed in surprise.

Lin Yang smiled. If it were just by manual allocation, such a large output would naturally not be possible, but he had been influenced by modern knowledge.

Do you understand industrialization?

Have you ever heard of an assembly line?

He only needs to control the core "source liquid" part, and other simple steps such as extraction and distillation can be left to other people or tools.

He doesn't need to worry about it.

"This is just the beginning. If everything goes smoothly, production will increase further."

"I believe you can do it."

Ye Lengleng was also very direct. Although she didn't know what gave him his confidence, she trusted Lin Yang after spending time with him.

"Now let's talk about cooperation."

Lin Yang said, "I would like to hear the details!"

Ye Lingling pondered for a moment, then said, "Lin Yang, since your potion is to be promoted among commoner soul masters and soul hunting groups, then the distribution channels must be of paramount importance."

"In addition, the supply of medicinal herbs is also crucial."

At this point, a hint of pride appeared on Ye Lengling's face. "And my Ye family can achieve both of these things."

"My Ye family has its own medicinal herb garden and herb-gathering team, and we can provide most medicinal herbs."

"My Ye family has shops in every major city-state within the Heavenly Dou and Star Luo Empires. As long as production can keep up, I can have your potions distributed throughout the entire continent within a month."

As the heir cultivated by the Ye family, how could Ye Lengleng not see the true value of these two medicines?

Putting aside other things, just take the Soul Recovery Potion as an example. It restores 10% to 20% of the soul power for those below the third ring level.

This ratio doesn't seem like much, but it depends on what you compare it to.

As a top-tier support-type martial soul, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda can only restore 30% of its soul power with a single skill at the second ring level.

For most support-type Soul Masters, achieving 10% is already the absolute maximum.

Moreover, even for a Soul Master, the Soul Recovery Potion can restore five percent of their health.

One vial of medicine is equivalent to the soul skill of a support-type soul master.

There's also the Soul-Burning Potion, which, although costly, can save lives in critical moments, and its market potential is considerable.

It's easy to imagine that once these two potions are released, they will directly ignite the entire market for low-level Soul Masters.

No Soul Master would oppose this potion, not even a support-type Soul Master.

Using their soul skills also consumes soul power, and if used properly, it can actually increase their endurance. Only a fool would refuse that.

Unless a similar drug appears, it's practically robbery.

Moreover, never underestimate the wealth of a Soul Master.

Even a first-ring Soul Master receives a monthly Soul Master subsidy that is equivalent to the combined wealth of more than ten ordinary civilians.

So Ye Lengleng took the initiative to approach Lin Yang, wanting to get a piece of this huge pie.

Lin Yang nodded slightly: "What you said makes a lot of sense, but—neither the distribution channels nor the medicinal herbs are indispensable to your Ye family."

"That's true," Ye Lingling nodded, "but the Ye family started with herbs and a medical clinic, so I don't think any other force is more stable than us."

"That's a reason."

Lin Yang nodded slightly, then thought for a moment and changed the subject, "I can cooperate with the Ye family, but I hope the person in charge will discuss the specifics of the cooperation, since... the Dugu family also has a certain share."

Ye Lengleng's expression changed slightly.

When it comes to a titled Douluo, she, as the "prospective" head of the Ye family, is indeed not qualified.

After a moment of silence, she nodded gently.

"I understand. I will have Grandpa come to Tiandou City."

He then added, "However, could you give me some samples first? I need to be convincing enough."

"Can."

Lin Yang was generous, giving Ye Lengleng five doses of both the Soul-Returning Potion and the Blood-Burning Potion.

He had no need to worry about whether the Ye family could deduce the medicine formula; did they really think that all his long-term investment had been for nothing?

After Ye Lengleng left, Lin Yang finally smiled slightly: everything was as expected.

The Butterfly House is ultimately too small. If we rely solely on word-of-mouth among Soul Masters to make a difference, it will take forever.

This did not meet his expectations for a quick return of funds.

The Dugu family is indeed wealthy, but while they're good at using poison in fights, using it for business is like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

Therefore, Lin Yang had long been thinking about finding another partner.

While it is inevitable that some profits will be shared, the risks will also be shared.

Moreover, only by making the pie bigger can we earn more money.

The first person he thought of was Ye Lengleng, and the Ye family behind her.

Just as Ye Lengleng said, the Ye family is really a perfect match.

There are medicinal herb gardens, herb-gathering teams that can provide basic materials, and pharmacies all over the mainland. Herbs, channels, and sales networks are all readily available.

This is practically a partner sent by God.

That's why he took out the resurrection potion at the "right" time.

When fishing, how can you do it without baiting the area?

And Ye Lengleng did indeed take the bait, even more eagerly than he had imagined.

As for why not take the initiative?

Just kidding, going to someone's door uninvited would be beneath you.
