Chapter 2291 - 2294: Cheap Miracle Drug Equals Sea Demons' Cheers (Fifth Update)

In an instant, not only were all the sea demons present stunned, but the absolutely beautiful Mermaid Princess Jinli Qianning also exclaimed excitedly, "Shen Qiang, what did you say? A medicine that can replace Malachite Green without any side effects?"

Shen Qiang smiled slightly and said, "Ignoring the identity of the Dragon Emperor, I am a leading Medicine King in the Cultivation World. If I don't have this skill, wouldn't that be a joke?"

At the moment these words were heard, the many Great Sea Demons present immediately exploded.

"Shen... Dragon Emperor! Are you serious? We've been using Malachite Green for longer than you've said. Look at my arm, these tumors are impossible to cure!"

"Dragon Emperor, look at my spine, it's bent because of using Malachite Green, and it's incurable despite consulting many doctors."

"Dragon Emperor, really? My deformity doesn't need treatment anymore. As long as it can have the effect of Malachite Green without aftereffects, it would be the supreme Spiritual Medicine for our Sea Clan!"

Shen Qiang smiled slightly and said, "Of course, the medicine I bring you not only prevents and cures Water Mould Disease and Gill Mould Disease but also expels parasites without any aftereffects. Your descendants will no longer be deformed from long-term use of Malachite Green as you are."

Instantly, all the Great Sea Demons became excited.

At this moment, an impatient Great Sea Demon became anxious, "Dragon Emperor, the common diseases in our Sea Clan are Water Mould Disease, Gill Mould Disease, and parasites, which appear frequently like human colds. We already knew about the aftereffects of Malachite Green, but we had no choice because Malachite Green is cheap, and everyone can afford it. Even if your medicine is good, it can only last for a while, then what? What's next? Such precious medicine must be pricey!"

Hearing this, the rest of the Great Sea Demons exploded again.

"Yeah, the medicine we Sea Clan use is scarce, with no one usually researching, so the prices are very expensive. This essential Spiritual Medicine without side effects mustn't be low priced!"

"Of course, a small bottle of Water Race medicine, even if bought from humans, costs hundreds to thousands per bottle. Considering our body size, one use requires hundreds of bottles. It's simply unaffordable!"

"It's understandable for essential medicine without side effects to be a bit expensive, but if it's too costly, we would still have to use Malachite Green, wouldn't we?"

Seeing so many sea demons worry about the price without yet holding the medicine, the Great Sea Demon King Yu Jiang frowned and whispered to Shen Qiang, "Shen Qiang, I don't doubt your expertise in Elixir Pills, but the way you're handling this is rather rash."

"If you give them some medicine for uncommon illnesses, they would thank you and store it for emergencies, but Malachite Green is used in too large quantities. Even a year's supply is not just a matter of a few bottles. Even if you're willing to cover their loss, can you handle it?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang's eyes curved with laughter, saying, "Don't overthink it, just wait to receive Qianning's dowry. This matter has nothing to do with you."

The Great Sea Demon King Yu Jiang squinted, yet felt helpless.

After all, now Shen Qiang is the Dragon Emperor.

He, as a Demon King, may indeed posture privately with Shen Qiang but certainly not in public.

Meanwhile, seeing the leading Great Sea Demons worrying about affording this medicine, Shen Qiang chuckled, raising his voice, "The price of this medicine is indeed not trivial, and for others, it can't be cheap, because my name as Medicine King is a golden sign."

"But since you respect me as Dragon Emperor, you're your own people, naturally entitled to the internal employee price. Based on the cost, I'll give you a 50% discount, with the price equal to Malachite Green, allowing you to use it boldly and confidently, so that your descendants will never be threatened by Malachite Green's aftereffects ever again!"

Upon hearing this, all the Great Sea Demons present burst into ecstasy.

"Long live the Dragon Emperor! Sage and heroic majesty! Possessing the power of the Four Seas and Nine Provinces! Endless joy, eternal life!"

Amid their cheers, Shen Qiang's eyes curved with smiles.

At that moment, Qianning got anxious, pulling Shen Qiang away from the cheers, exclaiming, "Shen Qiang, are you crazy! Do you know how many there are, not to mention the sea demons? Big and small, young and old, at least hundreds of thousands. The massive use is a bottomless pit that you can't fill!"

Looking at Qianning, who was anxious, Shen Qiang burst out laughing, then whispered, "Worried about the money, are you?"

Instantly, Qianning's face flushed, turning her head somewhat angrily not to look at Shen Qiang.

Seeing her appearance of shame and anger, Shen Qiang's mood inexplicably brightened: "Rest assured, my dear Princess, believe me, in this world, buyers never get the upper hand over sellers. The selling price of the medicine is originally equal to Malachite Green, with a large output, capable of satisfying even millions of sea demons, and I'll still profit."

Instantly, Qianning was stunned.

"You liar! You're a bad guy."

Shen Qiang's eyes curved with laughter, then turned around to the crowd of Great Sea Demons, saying, "Everyone, please take your seats. After the feast, go find Ke Bizhu, who will distribute gifts to each of you. Not only that, if there are any needs in the future, you can directly order from Heshenghe through Sea Demon King Yu Jiang, guaranteeing quality and quantity without raising the price because we're our own people. As Dragon Emperor, it's only right to seek benefits for you."

Upon hearing this, the crowd of Great Sea Demons instantly boiled over.

They shouted, long live the Dragon Emperor, endless joy, eternal life, while joyfully dining.

Yet just seated, Shen Qiang saw something strange. Compared to the joyful ordinary sea demons, the Great Sea Demons dressed in brocade clothes and seeming to hold Transcendent status looked pale.

"You've made too much of a splash; those sea demons usually not only work hard for Great Sea Demons but also contribute to them. Yet you're the Dragon Emperor, not only asking them for no wealth but giving them benefits, which is simply unnatural."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang's eyes suddenly brightened, smiling, "What is unnatural now, will become the new normal in the future, as long as they follow me. What's a little medicine?"

Great Sea Demon King Yu Jiang laughed, lowering his voice and whispering, "I knew your cunning, clever ideas are plenty. Have you decided to take them now? Then you might as well woo me first."

Shen Qiang laughed, clapping his hands, "Bring out the dowry!"

Hearing this, Ke Bizhu beside him directly opened a box, placing a stack of papers before Great Sea Demon King Yu Jiang.

Amid the confusion of the demons, Shen Qiang smiled slightly, "Princess Qianning is beautiful and wise, a treasure in my eyes. No wealth can express my admiration for her. Here are the legal documents for fifty-two new cargo ships, as a token of my affection."

Instantly, the Great Demons present were shocked.

"Wow! Fifty-two cargo ships!"

"Even a cargo ship with a displacement of only a thousand tons costs over a billion per ship!"

"So wealthy, worthy of the Dragon Emperor!"

Instantly, all the Great Sea Demons looked enviably at Great Sea Demon King Yu Jiang, smiling wide enough to show his molars, repeatedly saying it's good while Qianning blushed in joy and fled.

The crowd indulged extravagantly.

Once calmed down, Uncle Gui hesitantly whispered, "Boss, what's your new medicine made of? Is the cost high? If it's really losing money, this bottomless pit will pull you down."

Shen Qiang laughed, "Jia Shuangling, cheaper than Malachite Green, not only not losing but profiting."
