Chapter 124: Chapter 124 Amazement to the Heavens

(Second Update)

The Body Tempering Pill caused significant pain which wasn’t exactly miraculous in terms of weight loss-it could, at best, be equated to extensive dehydration.

But Xu Leigang was already convinced of its value. He felt much lighter, or in his own words, he had never felt his body as light as it was now.

Of course, such feelings were rather subjective, but there were objective signs too-his body exuded a large amount of impurities.

This phenomenon lacked systematic scientific evidence, but many martial arts and fantasy novels described it consistently and coherently.

Therefore, Xu Leigang was certain that Feng Jun wasn’t scamming him. If he had harbored any doubts before, the pain he endured vanquished every last one of them.

After he finished bathing and the odor in his room had dissipated, it was already noon.

He picked up the phone and ordered a large table of takeout, wolfing it down before consulting with Feng Jun, “Master Feng, how many Body Tempering Pills do I need to consume to feel the qi?”

“To develop a sense of qi, you need a cultivation technique,” Feng Jun glanced at him and answered leisurely, “As for how many? You’re overthinking it… I’m helping you lose weight, just this one pill.

In fact, he had plenty of Body Tempering Pills on hand, but given his interaction with Xu Leigang, one was more than enough. Judging by the latter’s reaction, the pill’s effectiveness was indisputable.

In the Mobile Phone dimension, the Body Tempering Pill was a relatively basic pill and wasn’t too expensive; one could buy them in large quantities if willing to pay. However, to Feng Jun’s knowledge, he was the only person who could bring these pills into the real world.

Since he was the only one capable of this, there was no need to consider the pill’s price in that dimension.

These days, the most lucrative business is a monopoly, and all he needed to think about was how much this pill was worth in the real world.

If he supplied Body Tempering Pills in large quantities, he would become a focal point in others’ eyes, which might have unpredictable consequences.

So for now, he didn’t plan to openly supply them, but rather to decide based on future developments.

Thinking back, he found it somewhat amusing that when he came upon this fantastic opportunity, his dream was to get rich through smuggling.

Unexpectedly, he ended up smuggling neither cosmetics nor electronics, nor military hardware nor drugs, but still dabbled in smuggling-and it wasn’t just international smuggling, but dimensional smuggling, involving jade and pills.

The jade trade was his first pot of gold, which he saw could bring in steady income, but couldn’t expand indefinitely. Therefore, smuggling pills might be a good next step.

As for Xu Leigang’s desire to obtain cultivation techniques, Feng Jun didn’t consider it for the time being. Their connection, signified by one Body Tempering Pill, had been more than sufficient. If Fatty Xu wanted more, it would depend on how he performed.

It wasn’t that Feng Jun was stingy, but that’s just how the world worked-you get what you pay for. The saying “Tiny favors can lead to huge grudges” wasn’t without merit.

Xu Leigang realized this too. Initially, he thought pawning his house was a huge favor to his ‘Second Brother,’ but now he recognized that he was the one who had benefitted the most.

His gratitude towards Feng Jun instantly turned into an all-embracing effort to ingratiate himself.

After all, this was cultivation, the stuff of martial heroes in legends. Compared to such a mythical existence, real-life society seemed utterly lackluster, didn’t it?

Feng Jun gave him the Body Tempering Pill not solely because he took a liking to him. That afternoon, in front of Xu Leigang, he began charging himself with electricity, gripping each end of a wire.

Witnessing this scene, Xu Leigang’s eyes nearly popped out. Holy shit, a few hundred amps of current, and Master Feng seemed unbothered?

Even if he wasn’t particularly academically inclined in school, he knew perfectly well what a few hundred amps meant for an ordinary person-it could probably incinerate someone into ash.

Though filled with questions, he dared not disturb the master’s training. At dinner, he finally mustered the courage to ask, “Master Feng, the technique you’re cultivating… is it the Thunder Technique?”

No wonder the master bought a generator. Xu Leigang had initially thought it was all martial arts fiction, but this was like witnessing something out of a fantasy novel.

Feng Jun looked up at him, then continued eating, “I don’t want to deceive you, so I’ll just say two words… it’s not!”

If it wasn’t… then it wasn’t. Xu Leigang didn’t mind, as he reckoned that someone practicing cultivation like Master Feng was definitely beyond mere martial arts-at the very least, it had to be advanced martial arts, to make any sense.

Otherwise, even using an electric current for body refinement, one wouldn’t use such a high voltage.

The next day, Xu Leigang continued to eagerly run errands with great vigor, for he had discreetly learned that even Wang Haifeng and Sister Hong didn’t know the specifics about Feng Jun’s background.

By that account, wasn’t he the person Master Feng preferred to take under his wing the most? He absolutely had to seize this opportunity firmly. Feng Jun guessed his cautious thoughts and then told him very directly, “No matter when, the higher the quality of the resources, the scarcer they become. I hope you understand that.”

“I understand, I really do,” Xu Leigang nodded repeatedly, “You’ll see I perform well.”

That very afternoon, he got his chance to show off. Zhang Wei called to say that two tons of silver ingots had been made, and Feng Jun could come to collect them.

Two tons of silver ingots, a total of forty thousand pieces including the processing fee, equalled over eight million Chinese yuan. Xu Leigang volunteered enthusiastically, saying he would help him find a few soldiers at the military district to deliver the goods to the place President Feng specified.

Where did Feng Jun have a specified place?

He couldn’t just carry such heavy silver ingots wherever he wanted, so he asked, “Is it safe to put them in the villa?”

“Safe, absolutely safe,” Xu Leigang guaranteed without any hesitation, excitement spreading across his face. “If there’s any accident, I’ll cover it… with double compensation!”

He had to seize such a precious opportunity. Although the silver ingots seemed a bit odd, as long as they could be sold, he could buy them. Double compensation was just over ten million yuan at most… He could afford to give up his villa.

When he said this, Zhang Wei was also present and knew that this man was Zhu Renxia1 s son. Although fallen on hard times, he still had quite a way with the military.

Zhang Wei was puzzled why the son of Commander Zhu would adopt an almost servile attitude, to curry favor with Feng Jun.

So he cautiously asked, “Brother Xu, do you have any collaboration with Boss Feng?”

“How could 1 dare to collaborate with him?” Xu Leigang denied firmly, shaking his head, “Isn’t this… because President Feng lent me a sum of money? We have to be conscientious.”

Zhang Wei had heard about this from Wang Haifeng, but at this moment, he felt something was off and gave him a strange look, “You don’t dare to collaborate with Feng Jun, rather than not wanting to?”

Xu Leigang became a bit upset and deftly changed the subject, “Xiao Zhang, now that we’ve met, if there’s anything you need from the military, just look for me.”

Zhang Wei was no fool and caught the hint, so he exchanged pleasantries before taking his leave. However, his curiosity wasn’t diminished in the least. He decided to call Wang Haifeng.

After hearing about it, Wang Haifeng was also baffled, “That’s odd. Xu Leigang feeling grateful to Feng Jun is normal, but that guy is really proud. Why would he not dare to work with Feng Jun?”

While they were pondering their doubts, Xu Leigang had people carry the bags loaded with silver ingots into his house, and then he asked solicitously, “Master Feng, do you want to leave these soldiers here to help watch the place?”

“No need,” Feng Jun shook his head, “This is no longer the military district. Bringing them here would be making an exception, wouldn’t it?” Hearing Feng Jun’s response, Xu Leigang immediately suggested, “It’s fine. They can just wear plain clothes. I can call a few non-commissioned officers over. They’re not usually busy and would be more than happy to be on good terms with me.”

“Still, no need,” Feng Jun continued to decline, but seeing the other party s clout in the military, he was reminded of something. “By the way, could you help me get some weapons?”

Xu Leigang hesitated for a moment before asking, “What kind of weapons?” “At the very least… it should be a semi-automatic rifle,” Feng Jun stated cautiously, “Of course, the greater the firepower, the better. PAI mortars or something would also be fine. You know that small arms like handguns are meaningless to me.”

Xu Leigang wasn’t surprised by this. In his view, with Master Feng’s ability to break branches from afar with his finger force, he hardly needed a handgun. But… a semi-automatic rifle? That was truly giving him a hard time. “Master Feng, we’re in Huaxia, not the United States. PAI mortars… are you joking?” “Grenade launchers are also fine,” Feng Jun answered seriously, not annoyed by the refusal. In fact, as a citizen of the empire, he was well aware of the country’s resolve to control firearms, “Rest assured, I won’t use them domestically.”

“Not use them domestically…” Xu Leigang’s eyes shifted before he asked cautiously, “Well… if you can accept delivery overseas, then maybe I can figure something out. Would you want a TANK?

“What do I need that for?” Feng Jun rolled his eyes, clearly not amused, “I’d rather have a self-propelled HUO cannon than a TANK.’

Xu Leigang chuckled and nodded, “I could arrange that… do you really want it?” “I wouldn’t know how to use it, plus it would require going abroad,” Feng Jun shook his head, “Never mind, I won’t force you. How about a few tons of TNT… that shouldn’t be too hard for you, right?”

In the Mobile Phone plane, aside from defenses, many martial artists possessed high agility, making ordinary rifles not very effective. It was really explosions and drugs that could do some damage, potentially useful by taking out many at once.

“A few tons of TNT?” Xu Leigang’s eyes widened in shock, then he gave a wry smile and gestured, “Spare me, I’d rather help you get a few truckloads of shells… those are routinely destroyed every year, and I could work something out.”

After saying this, his eyes flickered before lighting up, “Wait a moment, destroyed shells… hey, I might actually be able to get you a PAI mortar. Are you sure you want it?”
