Chapter 34 – Black Market Scam Collection Deluxe Edition

Chen Shu waited idly for school to end, having already mastered all the high school knowledge.

Ding ding ding!

The school bell rang, and Chen Shu was the first to walk out of the classroom, heading straight to the door of the Regular Class.

"Zhou Xiaopang!"

"Pi Ge!" Zhou Xiaoming ran over excitedly, "I saw Zheng Yi's miserable state. Pi Ge, your efficiency is really high."

"Of course, I'll come by your house tonight. I want to discuss some business." Chen Shu rubbed his hands together.

He had unlocked the Size Potion and needed raw materials to brew it. Unlike the Strength Elixir, the output of the Size Potion was only two to four bottles.

If he went to the 666 Elixir Company to brew it, his profit would be minimal, not to mention it would be too high-profile.

For a high school student to skillfully brew two kinds of potions was already quite astonishing.

"Tonight?" Zhou Xiaoming was startled, "Isn't it too early to meet my parents?"

"Hmm?" Chen Shu's mouth twitched, "Are you looking for a beating? Speak properly."

"No... Pi Ge, I mean I haven't told my parents yet," Zhou Xiaoming chuckled awkwardly, "Besides, we have evening self-study tonight."

Chen Shu directly pulled Zhou Xiaoming towards the school gate, "No worries, I'll have Zhang Dali tutor you tomorrow."

Zhou Xiaoming: "..."

Having Zhang Dali tutor me? Are you kidding? I don't want to be the last in the grade!

The two went to Zhou Xiaoming's family shop, and it turned out to be easier than Chen Shu had imagined.

Although he didn't have a Potion Master's certificate, under the allure of money, Zhou Xiaoming's parents agreed to reserve specific Dimensional Realm materials for him, albeit at a price 10%-20% higher than the market.

Both parties quickly reached an agreement; as long as Chen Shu could provide the money, Zhou Xiaoming's family shop was willing to sell the medicinal materials.

Unfortunately, Zhou Xiaoming's material shop didn't sell potions, so naturally, they wouldn't purchase his potions.

The next day, Chen Shu didn't go to school as usual but went directly to the 666 Elixir Company.

Having fully mastered the high school Beast Master Knowledge, there was no need to review the textbook knowledge anymore.

As a Beast Student, studying outside of school was reasonable, right?

He quietly arrived at the potion department of the Elixir Company, and the others turned a blind eye to him.

The company didn't make a big deal out of him, as Chen Shu didn't have a Potion Master's certificate. If exposed, he might be fired.

"Master Chen, what brings you here today?" Assistant Xiao Mao asked in surprise.

"Hmm, I came by when I had some time. Are there any Strength Flowers reserved?" Chen Shu asked.

"There are fourteen now. Do you want them all?"

"Yes, bring them all," Chen Shu nodded.

Although the company supplied three Strength Flowers daily, without his presence, they naturally couldn't reserve them all for him, or else the Strength Elixir would be out of stock.

The elixirs from the 666 Elixir Company were sold to major shops and were naturally in high demand.

By the end of the day, Chen Shu had used up all fourteen Strength Flowers.

Six of the Strength Flowers were used to brew low-grade Strength Elixirs, totaling seventy-eight bottles.

According to the contract, one Strength Flower required giving the company five bottles of Strength Elixir, which meant seventy bottles for fourteen flowers.

The remaining eight Strength Flowers were all used to brew medium-grade Strength Elixirs, which Chen Shu stored in his System Space.

With such a frantic potion brewing speed, Assistant Xiao Mao was already used to it, storing seventy bottles of Strength Elixir.

In the evening, Chen Shu left the company and headed straight to the Black Market.

He needed to sell the elixirs, then go to Zhou Xiaoming's family shop to buy medicinal materials to brew new Size Potions.

Currently, he had fifty-two bottles of medium-grade Strength Elixir in his System Space.

Fourteen bottles were fed to the Golden Slime, which developed resistance and couldn't consume any more medium-grade Strength Elixirs.

Chen Shu arrived at the street of the Black Market, found an empty spot, and began setting up his elixirs.

"Come and see! Freshly brewed medium-grade Strength Elixirs!"

Chen Shu set up a stall in the Black Market and started shouting loudly.

"Absolutely genuine! Ten times compensation for fakes!"

Despite his loud voice, few people came by, and those who did looked at him with disdain.

Damn, I'm a model student, and I'm being treated like a scammer?

"Young man, your scam is too clumsy," the stall owner next door said.

"I'm selling real Strength Elixirs," Chen Shu's mouth twitched as he explained helplessly.

"Who believes your ten times compensation? Are you just going to give them eleven bottles?" the person continued.

Chen Shu turned to look at the person and suddenly remembered, "Aren't you the one selling mud?"

When Chen Shu and Zhang Dali first came to the Black Market, Zhang Dali spent ten yuan on a piece of mud.

"What do you mean mud! That's an Earth Dragon King Beast Core!"

The owner explained seriously, "Want to learn some tricks from me?"

"Tricks? What tricks?"

"Of course, Black Market stall tricks, guaranteed to earn you three thousand a day!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the owner took out an old book, titled 'Black Market Scam Collection (Collector's Edition)'!

"Uh..." Chen Shu's mouth twitched slightly.

Could it be any more outrageous!

They even published a book, and it's a collector's edition??

"Forget it, I'm selling genuine products, not like you scammers."

"Not bad, not bad," the owner nodded, "Your scam is bad, but your acting is good."

"..." Chen Shu was speechless.

Suddenly, he thought of something and said, "May I ask how to address you?"

"Call me Old Wang, everyone does."

"Alright, Brother Wang Ba, I have a favor to ask," Chen Shu said.

Find the original at " pa𝑤read.com ".

"I'm Old Wang, not Old Wang Ba..." the stall owner was speechless.

"Okay, Brother Wang Ba," Chen Shu nodded and suddenly whispered, "Can you help me find some people to pretend to buy things, to create some buzz?"

Old Wang shook his head, no longer caring about the name.

"Will that work?" he asked, rubbing his hands, "It's no problem to call people, but you know everything requires funding."

"One hundred yuan per person," Chen Shu said generously, "Just get the people here, and I'll give you a thousand after it's done."

"Do you have that much money?" Old Wang looked skeptical.

"Here's a five hundred deposit, and I'll pay you the other five hundred after it's done!" Chen Shu took out five hundred yuan, "Remember to find more people."

Old Wang's eyes lit up, and he happily pocketed the five hundred yuan.

Ten minutes later, Old Wang indeed brought a group of people to his stall.

Most of them were stall owners, just ordinary people, selling fake goods, of course.

Although the Black Market only allowed Beast Masters above level five, it wasn't too hard for ordinary people to sneak in.

"Little Chen, these people are the elite of the Black Market! How about it?" Brother Wang Ba said.

Chen Shu looked at the group in front of him and nodded.

The crowd quickly surrounded his stall, and without needing any training, these old hands knew exactly what to do.

"Medium-grade Strength Elixir, I want a bottle!"

"Give me a bottle! I came all the way from the city center!"

"Boss, I want five bottles, wrap them up for me!"

Their acting was spot on, completely at an Oscar level, without any flaws. No wonder they were seasoned Black Market veterans.

The only problem was, damn it, take out some money!

"Damn, at least make it look real, this is too fake," Chen Shu rubbed his forehead, feeling a headache.

It wasn't that the crowd didn't want to pay; their pockets were cleaner than their faces.

Who has money and still acts as a shill?
