Chapter 71 Chapter 71 The Situation of the Xiao Family

After sitting quietly for nearly an hour, a pretty maid finally walked in from the door, holding a small silver plate in both hands, and there was a light red ring in the small plate. Taking the silver tray and dismissing the maid, Yafei personally handed it to Xiao Yan, and said with a smile: "Mr., the medicinal cauldron and medicinal materials you need are all in the "Najie"." He stretched out his hand to pick up Najie from the silver plate, turned it in his palm, Xiao Yan nodded slightly, and Yao Lao's voice came out in a very timely manner: "Well, after the success of refining Qi Gathering Powder, I will give it to you. You bring them here."

There was a touch of joy in her beautiful eyes, Ya Fei nodded quickly. "Okay, you don't need to send it off, I will go out by myself." With a wave of his hand, Xiao Yan put the ring on his finger, and then walked towards the waiting room without looking back. The blue jade card on the table, because he didn't want to owe too much favor, so he also kept it. down. Looking at the back figure that disappeared behind the door, Ya Fei bit her red lips lightly, took a step forward, put the blue jade card in her hand, murmured slightly, and asked softly: "Uncle Gu Ni, refining Qi Gathering Powder, it seems The success rate is not too high, right?"

"Well, it's said that even Grandmaster Furukawa, the Alchemist, has a success rate of only about 70% in refining Qi Gathering Powder. A normal fourth-rank pharmacist may have a success rate of less than 50%." Gu Ni said in a deep voice. "But this old gentleman, he succeeded in refining it once..." Ya Fei frowned slightly and said. "Who knows, maybe he's lucky..." Gu Ni shook his head, and didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, when a pharmacist refines pills, a lot of luck is needed. If luck is good , Maybe it won't fail several times in a row.

"Could he... be more than a fourth-rank pharmacist?" After a little hesitation, Ya Fei asked hesitantly. "Hehe, how is it possible? There are only a handful of fifth-grade pharmacists in the Jia Ma Empire. At that level, even powerful forces such as the empire and the Misty Cloud Sect will regard them as honored guests. How could they come here? We are auctioning the pills here." Gu Ni laughed. Hearing this, Ya Fei also nodded slightly, sighed lightly, and said with a wry smile: "It seems that I still don't have enough experience, the previous hesitation, I'm afraid this mysterious alchemist's goodwill towards us has been greatly reduced. .”

"I can't blame you. I don't even dare to send out such a large amount of money. It's already very good that you can do this. As for the relationship, it will be settled slowly in the future. As long as It's good that he doesn't feel bad for us." Gu Ni comforted. Nodding with a wry smile, Ya Fei sat lazily on the chair, showing her curves, blinking her long and narrow eyes, and whispered with some doubts: "What does he want to do with so many low-level medicinal materials?" "Those medicinal materials have the effect of stopping bleeding and growing bones. Presumably he is planning to refine healing medicine." After pondering for a while, Gu Ni frowned, and also said with some doubts: "How could he still go to refining with his identity?" How about making these cheap healing medicines?"

Hearing this, Yafei's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and she lightly tapped the table with her slender jade fingers. After a while, she gave a sharp pause and said softly: "It seems that this old gentleman is taking good care of the Xiao family..." Frowning tightly, Gu Ni was full of surprise: "You mean, he wants to make healing medicine for the Xiao family?" "Recently, I heard that the Jialie family has invited a first-grade pharmacist. The cheap "Rejuvenation Powder" has already taken away half of the popularity in the city. If the Xiao family does not take measures, I am afraid that there will be no one in the workshop. Embarrassing The situation is over." Yafei's eyes fluttered, and she said with a faint smile: "Last time, the old gentleman said that if he had the opportunity, he would cooperate with the Xiao family, and he bought so many healing herbs at this time. The purpose seems self-evident."

"Hey, it seems that the Xiao family really hugged a thick thigh this time. The Jialie family is in trouble." Listening to Ya Fei's analysis, Gu Ni grinned with envy on his face. The help of a fourth-grade pharmacist is not the treatment that other families can have. Nodding her head slightly, Ya Fei smiled lightly and said, "Recently, let's get in touch with the Xiao family more. It's icing on the cake, but sending charcoal in the snow will make it easier to strengthen the relationship between the two parties." Gu Ni nodded in agreement. The Xiao family, backed by a fourth-rank pharmacist, already deserved their attention.

After leaving the auction house, Xiao Yan wandered cautiously for a long time as usual before turning into a remote alley and changing his clothes. Throwing the light red "Na Ring" in his hand, Xiao Yan was a little delighted. This Na ring was made of a rare material called "Na Shi". There was a special small space in it, which could store lifeless spirits. It is extremely convenient to buy anything, but due to the scarcity of "Na Shi", the "Na Ring" is also very precious, like the lowest-level "Na Ring" in Xiao Yan's hand, the space inside is only three or four square meters Mi looks like this, but the price is close to 100,000 gold coins. In the Xiao family, Xiao Yan has only seen his father and the elder have this kind of ring.

Playing with the ring for a while, Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment, but he didn't put it on his hands again, but put it in his arms carefully. This kind of ring is expensive, and if his father and the others saw it, he still couldn't explain why. come. After kicking the black cloak under his feet into the ditch, Xiao Yan carefully walked out of the remote alley, and then rushed all the way back to the family. Walking along the path through the family, when passing through the meeting hall, his father's furious curses could be heard inside, his eyelids twitched, Xiao Yan leaned over his head, and quietly peeped in through the crack of the door.

"Damn it, that old bastard Gariebi is too arrogant, he dared to rob the business so blatantly!" In the hall, Xiao Zhanzheng slammed the table with livid anger, and the tea in the teacup was splashed all over the table. "Currently, the Xiao family's several square markets have lost a lot of people, and the remaining merchants in the square markets have also been panicked. Many people have already secretly gone to the square markets of the Jialie family. If things continue like this, In half a month, I'm afraid... our Fangshi will go bankrupt." The second elder who was sitting below said with a gloomy face and gritted teeth.

"How about... I bring some elites of the family to kill that first-grade pharmacist secretly?" The third elder said fiercely with a fierce look in his eyes. "Now the pharmacist has at least two guards by his side, how can it be so easy." Xiao Zhan waved his hand and said helplessly. "But if this drags on like this, our losses are too great. The profits of the market in Wu Tanzhong account for a large part of our family's income." The third elder said unwillingly. The corner of Xiao Zhan's mouth twitched, at this moment, he couldn't think of any other way. "The mysterious alchemist at the auction that day, didn't he say that he has the opportunity to cooperate with us? Seeing Gu Ni's respectful attitude towards him, he must be of a high rank. With his help, the Jialie family, I definitely can't make big waves." The Great Elder who had been silent all this time suddenly said softly. "Hey, who knows if it's just casual talk, what can a person of that level get from cooperating with us? He will care about the little profit?" Xiao Zhan shook his head with a wry smile, and sat down on his butt chair, sighed. The three elders were also silent. Indeed, it was indeed difficult for the Xiao family to climb up to someone of that level. "Damn it, let's wait a few more days. If the Jialie family doesn't know how to restrain themselves, then don't blame us for fighting to the death!" Xiao Zhan licked his lips, holding the back of the chair tightly with his hands, his eyes flashed fiercely. sweep. Outside the door, Xiao Yan, who heard this place, shrugged slightly, and touched Najie in his arms with his palm, a coldness appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he slowly moved away.
