Chapter 280 - 276: It’s Not a Lack of Money, but a Lack of Goods
As long as it’s not about asking for intermediary fees or service charges, as long as it’s not about money, anything can be negotiated.
It’s just a mere flame, Anglistra agreed without hesitation, little knowing what fate awaited her. Refining low-level Human Elixirs might only take less than an hour, producing a large batch each time; whereas refining the Heavenly Immortal Pill could easily take forty-nine or eighty-one days.
In short, Leon called Salovis over.
If not for her mother’s intransigence, on the other hand, she had just nested on Volcanic Island. Volcanic Island, since its transformation, was imbued with a powerful force that could aid her rapid growth, especially she couldn’t be far from Leon. Even for one gold coin, Salovis was unwilling to spend, let alone 50,000 gold coins, which was indeed a painful blow.
Aside from the mother-daughter reunion being particularly tearful, Anglistra kept complaining about having an unfilial pair of children, making the veins on Leon’s forehead throb. Leon witnessed Salovis hand over 50,000 gold coins with tears in her eyes to buy some peace. Anglistra, accepting the filial money, was all smiles, deepening her understanding of the Red Dragon.
Seeing Salovis actually take out 50,000 gold coins, the shiny coins almost blinding to the eyes, Anglistra’s eyes widened, her glance at Leon somewhat skewed, she asked, "How many years has Salovis been working with you?"
"Not even five years." Leon answered.
"I remember you gave me two options." Anglistra said, "As long as you can help me earn a hundred to two hundred thousand gold coins in five years, I am willing to follow you."
"I cannot guarantee earning a hundred to two hundred thousand gold coins in five years... Opportunities don’t come every day, I can only assure you that you won’t be shortchanged." Leon did not deceive Anglistra.
