Chapter 392 The Herb Palace
“How on earth did the Jantz family get a hold of so many hundred-year-old rare herbs? This is way more than what one can find in Yeringham!” Jared voiced his question.
“The Jantz family purchased these herbs from Herb Palace, Mr. Chance. I found a contract that the Jantz family signed with Herb Palace earlier. They didn’t purchase it from Yeringham. All hundred-year-old herbs entering Yeringham will first have to go through the Herb Palace. They will pick out the herbs of excellent quality before releasing the rest to be sold in the market,” Phoenix explained.
“The Herb Palace?” Jared paused in confusion. He was still just an ordinary person up until two months ago, so there were plenty of things that he hadn’t heard of.
“The Herb Palace is located at Tayhaven Town in Summerbank. Tayhaven Town is also dubbed a mini ‘City of Herbs.’ The Herb Palace specializes in producing pills with specific purposes. Most of the martial artists in Summerbank have purchased their pills. However, this is the first time I’ve heard of someone purchasing these herbs from the place. They value these herbs very much, so it isn’t like them to sell them so easily,” Phoenix continued.
Jared found himself getting really worked up after hearing all that. I had no idea such a place existed in Jazona! Now it makes sense why these herbs are of such top-notch quality! They’ve all been specially picked out!
Recalling the explosion pill that Zachariah took, Jared asked, “Zachariah took a green-colored pill in the arena. Was that also purchased from the Herb Palace?”
Phoenix shook her head. “No. The Herb Palace has extremely strict regulations. They will not produce and sell such pills. The only pills they sell are detoxification pills, bone-strengthening pills, and several other body-strengthening pills. If the Herb Palace is willing to sell pills like these that temporarily boost your strength, the entire martial arts circle would go crazy.”
Jared nodded. Not only is the Herb Palace knowledgeable in producing pills, but they have also done their homework when it comes to business. They know that selling such pills would result in chaos in the martial arts world, which would only bring harm to themselves. It is precisely because of the Herb Palace’s strict regulations that Zachariah went as far as hiring Master Venicus from Crescent Sect to produce the longevity pill.
“Looks like we’ll have to pay the Herb Palace a visit!” he said excitedly.
Although it was extremely tempting to just take the Herb Palace for himself and use the herbs they had as resources, Jared couldn’t bring himself to do such a thing.
Instead, he decided to negotiate with them and see if he could purchase their herbs just like how the Jantz family did.
“Mr. Chance, the owner of the Herb Palace is a very eccentric person. I doubt they would agree to meet up with strangers like you so easily. They are backed by a prominent family from Jadeborough, which is the reason why the herbs from all over the country go through them before being sent elsewhere. The Herb Palace wouldn’t have been able to get their hands on this many rare herbs otherwise! The Jantz family is making purchases worth tens of billions, and the herbs we found here are only a part of them. If you need these herbs, we could try to continue ordering these herbs from the Herb Palace under the name of the Jantz family. However, it will be a little pricey…” Phoenix said awkwardly.
Tens of billions was an unimaginably huge figure for Phoenix, and she simply couldn’t fork out that much money.
“Have someone resume the business with the Herb Palace under the name of the Jantz family. Don’t worry about the cost. I’ll figure something out…”
Jared wasn’t about to give up on such valuable resources for his cultivation due to financial limitations.
As the amount of spiritual energy in nature was decreasing, it would not be enough to sustain Jared’s cultivation due to how strong he was becoming. That was why he needed to seek alternative resources to obtain spiritual energy.
