While Others are Leveling Up, I Alone Will Cultivate Until Mahayana Before Making My Move 73

Chapter 73: The Awakened Benefactor, Jin Congxue!

“After cultivating the Nine-Turn Golden Dan, my alchemy speed has increased significantly. At my current speed, without eating, drinking, or sleeping, I should be able to refine three hundred Rejuvenating Pills per day, which is only barely two thousand per week. The quantity is far from enough…”

Su Xing mused while refining pills.

“Regardless, I’ll refine more first. The more pills I can stockpile, the more money I can sell them for!”

Thus, for the next week, Su Xing dedicated himself to refining pills day and night. He used Qi-Replenishing Pills to maintain his energy and went seven days without sleep.

Finally, after seven days, Su Xing managed to refine 1,000 Rejuvenating Pills, 300 Top-Quality Rejuvenating Pills, and 800 Healing Pills.

Even with his enhanced strength, this was his limit. He had squeezed every last ounce of his energy.

After seven days, Su Xing had dark circles under his eyes and couldn’t stop yawning.

Refining pills for seven days straight without eating, drinking, or sleeping, consuming vast amounts of mental and physical strength, was a feat only possible because he was a Golden Elixir Stage Cultivator. Otherwise, he would have collapsed.

Looking at the small pile of pills in his storage ring, Su Xing smiled contentedly.

“Adding these to the hundreds I already have, I currently have three thousand pills. It’s not enough to acquire the Lingyun Trading Company, but it’s enough to give it a shot!”

Su Xing took out his phone and sent Jin Congxue a message, setting a time to meet.

Half an hour later, they arrived at the villa, having pre-ordered dinner, preparing to chat while eating.

Jin Congxue was taken aback by Su Xing’s appearance, questioning,

“It’s been a few days, why do you look even better… Strange, there’s a kind of ‘kidney deficiency’ feeling about you.”

Su Xing rolled his eyes. He looked better because of his innate talent, and the ‘kidney deficiency’ was entirely due to staying up late refining pills!

Soon, the servants brought their luxurious dinner. Su Xing hadn’t eaten in days, although the Qi-Replenishing Pills kept him energized, seeing the plentiful feast in front of him, he couldn’t help but devour the food, grabbing a large chicken leg and shoving it in his mouth.

Watching Su Xing eat without any restraint, Jin Congxue rolled her eyes, handing him a tissue and teasing,

“You’re a starving ghost reincarnated, aren’t you? It seems like you haven’t eaten in ages.”

Su Xing, mouth full, gave her a thumbs-up and said,

“You really missed your calling as a fortune teller! I haven’t eaten in days. Seeing these delicious foods, I just can’t help myself!”

After they were full and satisfied, Su Xing and Jin Congxue got down to business. She first handed him the 300,000 pieces of white-quality equipment she had acquired over the week.

Then, she said,

“Su Xing, do you know about the recent major event in the Kyoto business world? The Lingyun Trading Company, due to poor management, is starting to sell off its assets, especially low-grade equipment. Are you interested in acquiring them?”

Su Xing, who had anticipated this, nodded and directly asked,

“I have heard of the Lingyun Trading Company. It’s barely considered a first-rate trading company. But to acquire these assets, how much cash flow do we need?”

Jin Congxue extended two fingers, saying,

“At least two hundred billion Great Summer Coins! The Lingyun Trading Company has been in decline in recent years. During its peak, it monopolized most of the low-end professional market in Kyoto, with a market value of several trillion. However, even a dying camel is bigger than a horse!”

“Though the Lingyun Trading Company has declined, its current asset valuation is still over five hundred billion Great Summer Coins. It’s only because of internal shareholder issues that they’re selling off assets so cheaply!”

“If we can swallow the Lingyun Trading Company, I’m confident that the Taro Trading Company can become a first-rate trading company within a year!”

Su Xing nodded in agreement, admiring Jin Congxue’s business acumen.

A first-rate trading company, at least, needs an asset valuation of over one trillion.

Even in his simulations, Su Xing, despite his foresight and the advantage of time, had never managed to make the Taro Trading Company a first-rate company in over a decade.

Only a woman like Jin Congxue, born into a merchant family, sharp-eyed, and with vast resources and connections, could confidently say such a thing.

Su Xing thought, if Jin Congxue had innate talent, it would be at least a Purple-Quality Business Tycoon talent.

Su Xing pondered for a moment, then said,

“Two hundred billion is too much for the Taro Trading Company. It’s only a second or third-rate company, with an asset valuation of only tens of billions… I’m afraid the company can’t afford that much?”

Actually, Su Xing had been puzzled in his simulations. Even if he tirelessly refined pills, raising two hundred billion in a short time would be unrealistic. How did Jin Congxue manage to acquire the Lingyun Trading Company?

Jin Congxue patted her full belly, rolling her eyes and saying,

“Su Xing, you really don’t understand business! Directly taking out two hundred billion in cash flow, even for my Jin family’s trading company, is difficult. Generally, acquisitions are done through asset swaps or phased acquisitions!”

“The Taro Trading Company currently has limited industries, so we can’t do an asset swap. However, we can absolutely acquire it in phases. For the initial funding, one-tenth of the total amount is enough, which is twenty billion!”

Su Xing nodded slightly, taking out bottle after bottle of pills from his storage ring, saying,

“These are 1,500 Rejuvenating Pills, 500 Top-Quality Rejuvenating Pills, and 1,000 Healing Pills. This is my last stock. I’ll provide at least another fifteen hundred pills per week, trying to acquire the Lingyun Trading Company as soon as possible.”

Jin Congxue was astonished to see Su Xing pull out so many pills at once.

Just the pills in Su Xing’s hand were worth 3.5 billion Great Summer Coins!

And he also said he could provide fifteen hundred pills per week, meaning at least fifteen billion worth every week.

“Wow, you’re a walking money machine!”

Jin Congxue was stunned. After a moment’s thought, she said,

“Originally, my goal was to acquire the Lingyun Trading Company’s equipment trading business. But now, seeing how fast you make money, we can completely swallow the whole company!”

Seeing Jin Congxue’s excited expression, Su Xing smiled and nodded, but hesitated,

“However, the initial funding of thirty-five billion might not be enough to acquire it. And directly using pills to buy the Lingyun Trading Company seems a bit… not ideal…”

Hearing Su Xing’s words, Jin Congxue giggled and said,

“You forget who I am! Jin Congxue, the daughter of the Jin Family’s trading company. I have some clout! We won’t be directly trading pills. I’ll first pawn these pills with the Jin Family’s trading company. Getting a loan of three or four billion shouldn’t be a problem!”

“Then, I’ll use my identity as the daughter of the Jin family to negotiate the acquisition, using the Jin Family’s trading company as the guarantor! With this reputation, although the initial tens of billions might be a bit small, as long as you provide funds every month, we should be able to complete the acquisition within half a year!”

Su Xing was touched again.

Finally, he knew how Jin Congxue managed to acquire the Lingyun Trading Company within a year in his simulations. With the Jin Family’s trading company, a top-tier trading company, as a guarantor, the Lingyun Trading Company would naturally trust them.

“Jin Congxue is truly my benefactor. Without her, the Taro Trading Company’s development would be far slower…”
