Chapter 62: Chapter 62: Unfavored by Alchemists Chapter 62: Chapter 62: Unfavored by Alchemists “Coagulating Fat Pills, White Jade Pills, Hemostasis Pill,” Zhuang Lin nad the three types of dicine.
When the Pharmacist arrived and saw that the color, fragrance, and froth of the dicine pills were all of superior quality, he quickly set a starting auction price for the three bottles of pills.
However, Zhuang Lin was not very satisfied with this price.
The Pharmacist was a senior mber of the Xuanbao Pavilion, and glanced at Chu Nanli, who had already covered her face with a veil. Since her identity was unknown, he spoke bluntly, “These three types of dicine are common in the market and belong to the second tier that most Alchemists are able to concoct.”
“Although Miss Liuli’s pills show skilled techniques in concoction, precise control in the application of heat, and a good balance in the proportions of the ingredients, no matter how good the effects, they won’t surpass the works of several top Alchemists we regularly collaborate with at the Xuanbao Pavilion. After all, Miss Liuli is young, and it is already comndable that she can concoct to this standard.”
This Alchemist still recognized Chu Nanli’s abilities, so after finishing his statent, he tried to soften his words a bit.
However, in his heart, he underestimated her due to Chu Nanli’s young age.
Seeing that Chu Nanli did not show any displeasure, Zhuang Lin breathed a sigh of relief and said to the Alchemist in his own Auction House, “You missed the mark this ti.”
The Alchemist was taken aback.
Zhuang Lin said, “Miss Liuli actually brought out another bottle of pills that treat damage to the ridians. I personally tried the dicine and found the effects to be astonishing, so I already bought that bottle of dicine ahead of ti.”
The Alchemist was surprised again and imdiately expressed his concern, “You shouldn’t have tried the dicine yourself. There’s a risk.”
Chu Nanli wandered around the room, eyeing so of the displayed dicinal herbs, wishing she could take them all back ho. Naturally, she paid no attention to what the master and servant were saying.
Her indifferent attitude also secretly impressed Zhuang Lin.
“If I hadn’t tried the dicine myself, how could I have discovered Miss Liuli, the Divine Doctor?”
Zhuang Lin chuckled lightly, then took out the Hemostasis Pill and said, “We’ll need ti to verify the effects of the Coagulating Fat Pills and White Jade Pills, but not with the Hemostasis Pill. It can be directly tested on the spot. The auction that’s in a quarter of an hour will start with these three bottles of pills. At that ti, I will invite soone who is willing to test the dicine to co up on stage and demonstrate the results.”
The ssage revealed in his words was so significant that it left the Alchemist’s head spinning.
The master was going to personally endorse this lady’s dicine??
Not only that, but in front of everyone, he was going to let soone test the dicine on the spot?
What if sothing went wrong?
“That can’t be!” As the Alchemist’s mind caught up, he quickly spoke out anxiously, “Master, if the effects of the dicine don’t satisfy everyone present, it will not only damage our Xuanbao Pavilion’s reputation but will also affect your credibility and prestige.”
Zhuang Lin laughed freely and looked towards Chu Nanli, saying, “I absolutely believe in Miss Liuli’s capabilities.”
After speaking, he said to the Alchemist, “Co, why not make a bet with ? If the dicine’s effects and final price both exceed your expectations, you should duly apologize to Miss Liuli. Furthermore, in accordance with the rules of your Alchemist fraternity, you should offer so dicinal materials to show your sincerity.”
The Alchemist’s mind scread, “My boss has gone mad,” as he gave Chu Nanli a resentful look like one would to a fem fatale, and reluctantly said, “Master, if I win, then you shouldn’t interfere with the dicine Miss Liuli brings over in the future. Just let price it according to market standards.”
Zhuang Lin raised an eyebrow and looked towards Chu Nanli, who was calm and showed no trace of worry, and asked, “What do you think, Miss Liuli?”
“That’s no problem at all.”
Although she had concocted these few bottles of dicine without much thought, she was still very confident in her own abilities.
Upon hearing this, the Alchemist glanced at her again, his face full of frustration.
If he won, that would an both his master and their Xuanbao Pavilion would lose face.
If he lost…
How could that be possible.
The Alchemist suppressed the new thought as soon as it arose, continuing to fret over the potential humiliation for the Auction House.
