Chapter 886: Chapter 886 Lu Mingzhen’s Debt of Gratitude Chapter 886: Chapter 886 Lu Mingzhen’s Debt of Gratitude Lu Mingzhen listened as she stopped speaking. Though he had been very stern, he suddenly chuckled, “You’re quite loyal, girl. The ointnt was from Qiao Yin, wasn’t it? You don’t want to betray her, do you?”
Lu Yanxi felt a tingling sensation on her scalp in an instant. Lu Mingzhen, the family’s authority, had imdiately seen right through her thoughts, even directly guessing that Qiao Yin was the one who made the ointnt!
So Second Brother was that smart, all inherited from Eldest Uncle!
“Eldest Uncle, it’s not that I don’t want to tell the Wang Family about the source of the ointnt, but this scar removal cream is a proprietary secret of Yinyin’s grandmother. It’s not usually sold to the public. The production cost of this ointnt is very high, it requires rare ingredients, and the process is also very complex. Yinyin herself doesn’t even have any stock.”
Lu Mingzhen had actually guessed the source of the ointnt as soon as he heard how the Wang Family described it. Lu Yanxi had a relationship with Qiao Yin as close as sisters, so it wasn’t surprising that her auction house could obtain Qiao Yin’s grandmother’s secret dicine for sale.
Only Qiao Yin’s grandmother’s ointnt could have such miraculous effects, capable of restoring the badly burned face of the Wang Family’s granddaughter to its original state.
He called Lu Yanxi just to confirm his suspicions.
“Alright, I understand that the ointnt certainly can’t be mass-produced, or else Qiao Yin’s grandmother would not have always kept it from the market. The Wang Family has so connections with our family; back in the day, Old Master Wang even acknowledged your grandfather as his elder brother. He has asked for my help, so I can’t ignore it. Leave this matter to . You don’t need to worry.”
Lu Yanxi replied, not very cheerfully, “Okay.”
“Your auction house has recently been gaining strong montum with good popularity. It seems you are seriously managing it. I’m relieved that you’re ambitious. If you have any difficulties, tell Eldest Uncle, or directly find your Second Brother. Don’t take everything upon yourself, understand?”
“I understand, thank you, Eldest Uncle.”

At the Shen dical Clinic, Qiao Yin was busy working.
Today was number 517’s first day working at the dical Clinic, and he was adapting quite well. Moreover, because of his mory loss and disfigurent, the people at the clinic took good care of him.
Fearful of scaring anyone, number 517 had specifically worn a large mask to cover most of his face, and his forehead was concealed with stray strands of hair. Essentially, only his eyes were visible, so patients wouldn’t have any abnormal reactions upon seeing him.
After initially introducing number 517 to everyone, explaining his work, Qiao Yin didn’t pay any more attention to him.
Even though he had lost his mory, he was still a normal person and didn’t need excessive concern, as it would only make him feel useless.
After prescribing dicine to a patient, Qiao Yin received a call from Lu Mingzhen.
After so brief cordial greetings, Lu Mingzhen brought up the Wang Family’s request, “They find your ointnt effective and would like to purchase a large amount. I know it’s your grandmother’s closely guarded secret recipe, and I’ve told the Wang Family. They said you can na your price; as long as it can heal the kid, nothing else is an issue.”
Qiao Yin was silent for a mont before responding, “The ointnt production process is complicated and involves tedious procedures. There’s also a shelf life concern. The longer the ointnt sits after being made, the less effective it becos. That’s why my grandmother and I have never made it in large quantities.”
“In addition to that, there’s a more important reason, which is the issue with the ingredients.”
“One of the main ingredients required for this ointnt is the hundred-year-old wild yam, which is expensive and hard to acquire. In the many years that my grandmother has run the dicine Clinic, we’ve only received a few small pieces, which aren’t enough to produce much ointnt. There are also other rare dicinal herbs needed, which aren’t readily available.”
However, Lu Mingzhen replied after listening, “Don’t worry about procuring the ingredients. The Wang Family can sort that out themselves. You just need to prepare and produce the dicine for them. Consider this a favor I owe you. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can ask for my help using this favor. As long as it’s within my capabilities, regardless of the matter, I will solve it for you.”
