Chapter 248: True expert! (2/2)

“You…..”

Mu Xuan flew into a rage!

Mister Qiu’s face also sunk.

It had been a while since anyone dared to talk to him like this in the Southern Summer Country.If this fellow didn’t explain it all, how could he be satisfied?

“This antidote has at least four large defects!Haven’t you thought of them yet?”

“I haven’t thought of them, please tell us, mister.”

“The first defect.”Chu Tian stuck out a finger and said in a tranquil manner, “You have studied this poison before and you can agree this is a strong poison, isn’t that right Mister Qiu?”

“That’s right!”

“Since it’s a strong poison, it can activate in the blink of an eye.The Snake Scorpion Beast’s poison is a paralysis poisons, so if one is poisoned, they will instantly lose all sensation of their body, isn’t this right?”

“This is indeed the specialty of the Snake Scorpion poison.”

“Then I find it strange.While the warriors are fighting with the Snake Scorpion Beasts and they are poisoned, even if everyone brings an antidote with them, would they be able to stop and use it?Would they have the time to cure the poison?”

“This……”

That’s right!

This poison reacts so quickly.

It would be fine to cure the poison after the battle, but how could they do so during the fight?

“The second defect.”Chu Tian raised another finger, “Using an antidote to fight the poison is a clever technique, but using it here while thinking you’re clever is actually a stupid idea!”

“Is there something wrong with this Qiu’s techniques?”Mister Qiu knit his brows, “Please give me your opinion!”

“The Snake Scorpion Beast’s poison is a biological poison, so it will reproduce inside a person’s body, making the amount of antidote needed critical.If it is too little, it won’t dispel the poison and if it’s too much, the antidote will stay behind and turn into a poison instead.Do you think this point is right?”

Mister Qiu’s mouth opened wide, finally understanding the meaning of Chu Tian’s words.

“The amount of poison in the culture dish is set.You have been setting up this poison and assuming that it would be a constant amount of poison, but is the real situation like this?Once the microorganisms enter one’s body, the rate of reproduction, its spread rate, and its strength all matter, but this is hard to measure.”Chu Tian words were a relentless attack, “Only considering the medicine’s effect and not worrying about the actual situation, this really is a failure.This is not behaviour suited for an alchemy master!”

Mister Qiu revealed a look of guilt.

“The third defect!”Chu Tian raised a third finger, “The Snake Scorpion Beast’s poison is a continuous attack.The poison mist will envelop a person’s body, letting them be constantly poisoned, so will having an antidote even be useful?It would be useless on the spot.If the root of the problem is not fixed and only the poison is only dispelled once, they will just be poisoned again.Does Mister Qiu agree on this point?”

Mister Qiu was already completely in a daze.

“The fourth defect.”Chu Tian looked over Mister Qiu a few times, “Mister Qiu does not seem normal, so you should have lived a noble’s life!”

“Nonsense!”Mu Xuan was very dissatisfied with Chu Tian’s manner and had finally caught an opportunity, so he immediately refuted, “Mister Qiu is nothing more than a wandering scholar.”

“Mu Xuan!”Mister Qiu gave a low roar.There was a pressure that covered the entirety of Mu Xuan’s body.Mu Xuan could clearly feel that Mister Qiu’s aura was not below his father, the Green Wood Marquis…..Could Mister Qiu’s wandering scholar status be a disguise and he was actually an important character?For example, a scholar from a large kingdom?

“It seems like I wasn’t wrong on this point.”Chu Tian lightly said, “This is no wonder the medicine Mister Qiu makes, although its effects are alright, it costs quite a bit, using herbs that can’t be bought in large supplies on the market.It would be hard to refine a few hundred, so how will you use this antidote to equip an entire army?Based on these four points, the antidote is useless and only exists in name.Does Mister Qiu agree on this?”

“This old man has used several days, consuming many resources and manpower, but it was all for nothing!”Mister Qiu sighed into the sky, “Mister’s words are sharp, but you have expanded this Qiu’s knowledge!”

Mu Xuan was stunned, “Could there really be no method then?”

“There is a method and I can help you.”Chu Tian calmly said, “Of course, I don’t work for free, so you should give some kind of reward.”

“How much money do you want?”

“It should be two-three hundred million properly speaking.”Chu Tian said this and then emphasized, “However we have been jailed for no reason at all, so you must compensate us for our emotional damage, so I think just five hundred million!It’s not much, right?”

What?

Five hundred million!

How is this not a lot!

“Five hundred million gold coins is half the marquis palace’s treasury!How greedy!”Mu Xuan’s teeth became itchy with anger, “You’re also a scholar, but Mister Qiu came from afar to help Qing State for free, while you charge a sky high price for this help!What kind of scholar are you!”

“I respect those that are scholars, but I’m not a scholar!”Chu Tian shook his beautifully brocaded robe, “Look, I am a trader that can’t afford to not make a profit.Taking money from others’ disaster, that is all.Five hundred million to solve Qing State’s disaster, it all depends on you if you take out the money or not.”

“If mister can solve this problem for Qing State.”Mister Qiu’s eyes sparkled a few times, “Even if the Green Wood Marquis does not take out this money, this old man will give it to you!”

This was not a small amount!

It was an entire five hundred million!

Even the Qing State’s marquis palace would have to shear their meat to take this out, but this Mister Qiu did not even blink an eye at it.What kind of person was he?
