"No wonder Miss Miaotong couldn't get up!"
Everyone sighed in amazement, suddenly enlightened.
Of course, they wouldn't admit to being inferior, so they attributed all the credit to Zhou Chen's ancestral miracle drug.
"By the way, I heard that the girls who attended to several dignitaries who came with Lord Zhou last night also couldn't get up, could it be..."
A seasoned patron with a little moustache slapped his thigh and said with sudden realization, "Could it be they also used Lord Zhou's ancestral miracle drug..."
Er Ma echoed, "I heard Lord Zhou gave the miracle drug to the dignitaries as a gift last night!"
"Ah, that makes sense!"
Everyone suddenly understood, becoming interested in Zhou Chen's miracle drug.
After all, this was used by the County Captain.
What's this called?
This is called the celebrity effect!
Zhang Long: "I didn't actually use it!"
Wild Dog seized the chance to take out a drug bottle, shaking it proudly in front of everyone:
"Do you know why I know all this?"
"Because I discovered Lord Zhou opened a pharmacy!"
Little Moustache's eyes lit up, staring at the small bottle, curiously asking:
"Could this be Lord Zhou's ancestral miracle drug?"
"Of course it is!"
Wild Dog gently stroked the small bottle as if caressing the fine skin of a beauty, pointing to the three big characters on it:
"See this? This is the name Lord Zhou gave his ancestral miracle drug. How about it, isn't it impressive?"
"Yang Dingtian?"
Little Moustache looked at the three big characters on the bottle, exclaiming:
"Indeed, it's impressive!"
"Brother, where did you buy it, and how much does it cost?"
Little Moustache's question echoed everyone's curiosity, and a group of patrons gathered around him, ears perked.
This was about their future of pleasurable living.
"It's just a few dozen meters beside Snow Moon Square, the store is named Yang Dingtian, a bottle like this is priced at two hundred cents, enough for ten pills, quite a bargain!"
"Even the weak in kidneys can regain their strength after taking it, but the shop is closed now; you'd have to wait until tomorrow if you want to buy!"
"Alright, not talking to you anymore, I'm going to fight ten today!"
Wild Dog boasted, looking like he was ready to choose ten girls.
"Wait, brother!"
Little Moustache stopped Wild Dog, smiling broadly:
"Brother, you only need one pill today, I'll pay thirty cents, how about selling me one to try?"
"Alright, seeing that you look nice, I'll sell you one!"
Wild Dog took out a golden pill from the bottle and handed it to Little Moustache, then took the thirty cents.
Their visit today was actually to promote the drug.
Though giving it for free would degrade its value.
That's why Zhou Chen instructed them to promote it in this manner.
"Brother, I'll buy one too, here's thirty cents!"
"Brother, give me one too!"
With Little Moustache taking the lead, other patrons chimed in.
The two bottles Wild Dog and Er Ma brought had twenty pills total, far from enough for everyone's demand, but Zhou Chen solemnly instructed not to sell more.
Hype it up.
Scarcity adds value.
Thus, after selling ten pills, they raised the price, offering them to the highest bidders.
The last ten pills sold for five taels of silver altogether.
Equivalent to five maces of silver per pill.
Those who didn't get any looked regretful, their curiosity about Yang Dingtian intensified.
The buyers were thrilled.
Like Little Moustache and those who bought first, feeling they made a great deal by spending only thirty cents per pill.
Others tried to buy from them.
But they wouldn't sell, their vanity greatly satisfied, proudly heading upstairs, ready to show their prowess.
Thus.
Zhou Chen's little miracle pill Yang Dingtian became a sudden hit at Snow Moon Square.
A group of patrons discussed excitedly.
Later arrivals heard the gossip and were curious, soon finding out the famous Yang Dingtian.
Wild Dog and Er Ma saw the chatter spreading throughout Snow Moon Square, their faces beaming.
"Brother Chen is truly amazing; with the shop opening tomorrow, won't it sell out?"
Wild Dog wore a face of admiration, almost shaped like Zhou Chen.
"Brother Chen is meant for great things. As long as we hold onto Brother Chen's support, isn't a bright future within reach?"
Er Ma looked excited, solemnly saying, "We must accomplish Brother Chen's tasks without negligence!"
"Yes, let's go back, we'll be busy tomorrow!"
Wild Dog nodded heavily, and they returned to the Yang Dingtian store, inspecting it before ensuring everything was secure then resting.
"Brother Chen, can this drug really sell?"
Qin Hongyu was still somewhat worried, since she had already invested much silver, and selling poorly would mean a great loss.
"Don't worry, it'll definitely sell!"
Saying so, Zhou Chen kissed Qin Hongyu's soft lips, preventing her from speaking further.
The night turned passionate.
The room was filled with affection.
Qin Hongyu was entirely distracted from her worrying.

...
Snow Moon Square remained lit all night, countless figures emerged poised after a busy night.
Little Moustache adjusted his belt, his face beaming, full of pride.
"Brother, you look refreshed!"
Seeing Little Moustache, several figures seemingly waiting in the living room immediately approached, acting sleazy: "Does Lord Zhou's drug work well?"
Little Moustache raised his eyebrows excitedly:
"Not just well, it's fantastic!"
Little Moustache's face shone, talking endlessly:
"Before, I'd leave aching all over, now my back isn't sore, my legs don't cramp, and I'm refreshed all over, just two words..."
"Impressive!"
Saying that, Little Moustache suddenly thought of something, mumbling: "I need to buy more bottles quickly, it'd be terrible if it sold out!"
He ignored the crowd, rushing outside energetically, his steps swift.
"Impressive!"
Watching Little Moustache's lively pace, everyone knew he wasn't lying, Zhou Chen's drug was truly powerful.
Otherwise, not leaning on walls to exit would already be impressive!
A woman's waist, a knife scraping bones.
Did you really think the girls at Snow Moon Square were vegetarians?
They're man-eating spirits!
More powerful than the Lion Spirit at Shituo Ridge.
The Lion Spirit can swallow ten thousand Celestial Soldiers in one bite, while they...
Next moment.
The crowd dispersed quickly, rushing out of Snow Moon Square.
Similar scenes played out everywhere across Snow Moon Square.
Not only Little Moustache got the drug last night, twenty people did.
Thus.
The originally lively Snow Moon Square quickly turned quiet, leaving Madam Sister Hong flabbergasted as she came out.
"Where is everyone?"
"Where are all my customers?"
"Mama, they all went to buy Lord Zhou's ancestral miracle drug!"
"Is it really that magical?"
Sister Hong thought of Miaotong, Miao Yu almost being ruined by Zhou Chen, nodding to herself:
"No wonder Master Zhou is so fierce, turns out it's the drug!"
Zhou Chen: How could you tarnish my innocence out of nowhere?
"But if Master Zhou's drug is that strong, then my girls at Snow Moon Square would be..."
Sister Hong suddenly paused, sighing:
"This is truly tough!"
