Upon hearing these words, Zhou Chu nodded lightly, “That’s all we can do, if it weren’t for worrying about the old man, I’d be determined to fight Feng Xuan to the death.”
Chen Jie responded, “Hmm, don’t worry, we’re still at an advantage right now, and after a few days, our advantage will become even greater.”
Hearing this, Zhou Chu didn’t understand what Chen Jie meant, but Chen Jie himself was clear, as he had a prescription for Energy Transformation.
As long as he gathered the thirty-nine medicinal ingredients listed in the prescription, he could refine the Spirit Transformation Pill and then attempt to breakthrough Energy Transformation.
Once he possessed the strength of Energy Transformation, not to mention being incredibly strong, he would at the very least have the ability to protect himself from the masters of Mianshui County.
Especially since he also had the “Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms” as his trump card.
So, for the time being, he would only do two things: first, consolidate power, and second, find a way to secure the ingredients for the Spirit Transformation Pill.
Thinking of this, Chen Jie said to Xiao Hu, “Xiao Hu, get some paper and a pen.”
Upon hearing the instruction, Xiao Hu immediately went to fetch paper and a pen, and then Chen Jie began writing down a list of medicinal names on the paper.
There were thirty-six auxiliary medicines in total.
Some of these auxiliary medicines were also very precious, but they weren’t unattainable, as they should be available at the large pharmacies within the city.
The real challenge lay in acquiring the three main ingredients.
“Absolute Spirit Seed,” “Spirit Transformation Grass,” “Five-Hundred-Year Blood Ganoderma.”
It was these three ingredients that even with wealth, one would find difficult to purchase.
After finalizing the list of thirty-six auxiliary medicines, Chen Jie then said to Xiao Hu, “Xiao Hu, Old Zhou, you both have worked hard these past few days. Please run around the pharmacies for me and buy these medicines.”
Xiao Hu replied, “Alright.”
Zhou Chu said, “Okay, let me check the list first.”
Upon seeing the names of the auxiliary medicines, Zhou Chu was immediately startled, “These medicines aren’t cheap at all.”
“How much will it all cost?”
Zhou Chu answered, “At the very least, I estimate it’ll cost seven to eight thousand silver taels.”
“That expensive!”
Xiao Hu exclaimed in surprise.
At this moment, Zhou Chu pointed to a particular medicine, “Just this hundred-year-old ginseng alone will cost one thousand taels, and with these others, seven or eight thousand is actually an underestimate.”
Hearing this, Xiao Hu exclaimed, “Good heavens!”
Zhou Chu said, “It’s okay, these past few days, you and Jiu Si have also made some money. How much do you have, Jiu Si?”
Chen Jie replied, “I have about five thousand silver taels in silver notes.”
“I have just under two thousand taels, so seven thousand in total. With a few of a lesser age, it should be just about enough.”
Chen Jie said, “No, we can’t compromise on the age at all. As for the money?”
Chen Jie’s eyes then turned towards the lotus pond in the courtyard and he said to Xiao Hu and Zhou Chu, “How are your swimming skills?”
Xiao Hu asked, “Heh heh… Jiu Si, are you joking? We live by the water, how could our swimming be bad?”
Zhou Chu said, “Yeah, Jiu Si, you’re making fun of us. We’re from the Fishing Guild. If the Fishing Guild’s members were bad swimmers, wouldn’t we be the laughingstock?”
Chen Jie said, “That’s good then, I need a favor from you…”
…
“Sploosh~”
“Jiu Si, found it!”
Xiao Hu emerged from the pond, pointing to the bottom of it, while at this time, the entire backyard was empty, surrounded by Fishing Guild Disciples on guard.
Zhou Chu then said, “That’s quite a big box. Let me catch my breath. Hu Zi, let’s go down and pull it up.”
“You got it!”
Saying so, the two dived back into the water and soon enough, they emerged with a large wooden chest.
This chest was well-sealed, with wax oil ensuring no water got inside.
After lifting it out, the three of them opened the chest and immediately couldn’t stop grinning. Inside was a large chest full of Silver Coin, with a layer of silver on top, and gold underneath upon further inspection. Converting its content, the chest was worth exactly ten thousand silver taels.
“Cough cough…”
At that moment, Zhou Chu grinned and said, “Jiu Si, how did you know there was silver in this pond?”
Chen Jie laughed, “Second Brother came to me in a dream, said he had died with money unspent, and felt quite sad about it, so he asked me to help him spend it.”
“Hehe, the Second Brother is not very meticulous, huh? Being a brother as well, why would he come to you in a dream and not me?”
Chen Jie replied, “Second Brother knew you were afraid of your wife, worried that if the money came to you, it would go straight to your wife.”
“Nonsense, when have I ever been afraid of my wife? I am the man of the house, my word is law!”
“Alright, alright, my mistake. Our ‘Black-eyed Bear’ Hero dictates at home, with a very high status!”
Chen Jie was in a great mood upon seeing the silver.
Zhou Chu glanced at Chen Jie and said mockingly, “Go on then.”
“But Jiu Si, now that you’ve got this ten thousand taels, you should have no problem getting those medicinal ingredients.”
Chen Jie replied, “Then let’s hurry up and buy them, but when making the purchase, mix in a couple more; actually, give me the list.”
After some thought, Chen Jie added twenty inexpensive but misleading medicines to their list.
This Spirit Transformation Pill recipe was a precious item, not to be revealed carelessly.
By adding these ingredients, it would probably cost one to two hundred taels more, but it would ensure the prescription remained secret.
After all, in a prescription, having one extra or one missing ingredient could lead to two drastically different outcomes.
With an additional twenty ingredients, the original thirty-six were completely jumbled.
Besides, these medicines also had uses – they could be made into ointments for bruises and could treat common colds and other diseases.

Mixed correctly, they were essential household remedies.
After organizing the list, Chen Jie handed it over to the two men, “Buy.”
“Roger that.”
The two replied in unison and then started purchasing the medicinal ingredients.
So the hustle and bustle continued until the evening, when the family sat down for a meal.
The food was lavish today, with twelve dishes prepared, each in plentiful portion sizes.
This one meal alone could cost two silver taels.
