Chapter 96: Chapter 96 Must Be Thoroughly Investigated
So keen-minded individuals, based on Manager Fu and Yu Ji’s peculiar behaviors, had already guessed that the mysterious Pill Master who crafted those Golden Rune Protecting Body Elixirs might very well be Chu Feng, shrouded in a black robe and wearing a wide hat.
After the auction ended, Chu Feng was preparing to go to the auction’s accounting office to settle the transaction for the silver.
Han Xiaoying, pulled by Lu’er, briskly walked towards Chu Feng.
"Master... please wait!" Lu’er courageously pleaded in a brittle voice.
"Is there sothing?" Chu Feng turned around and looked at Lu’er and Han Xiaoying. Despite both girls wearing veils, their proud figures, exposed fair skin, and their eyes could still reveal that they were top-notch beauties.
Especially Han Xiaoying, who was being pulled along by Lu’er, not only had a tall stature but also an alluring and graceful posture.
Her pair of pitch-black eyes twinkled clearly and brightly, yet carried a hint of seductiveness, compelling n to be drawn to her involuntarily, wanting to get close to her.
Even just being gazed at by her twice would make one’s heart feel sweet, truly delightful.
"Master, my young mistress wishes to request your assistance in crafting an elixir!" Lu’er looked at Chu Feng with a face full of earnest, her tone gentle and respectful.
If only she knew of Chu Feng’s true identity, what kind of expression would she have?
After all, she had always looked down upon the Third Prince from the Sword King Mansion and had strongly advised her young mistress to choose another more worthy husband.
Chu Feng’s gaze turned towards Han Xiaoying, as if he could see right through her.
"Evil Qi perating through the body, sword ridians unable to condense, it seems the Gold Elent Sword ridian is damaged or the Sword Qi within the Gold Elent Sword ridian is out of control. You’ve found the wrong person, I’m just a guest here for the treasures at the auction, I don’t know alchemy at all!"
Having said that, Chu Feng gave a curt bow and then turned to leave.
He wasn’t aware of the verbal marriage engagent between him and Han Xiaoying. No one had ever told him about it.
In these years, Sword King Mansion had declined, and the once-familiar faces had drifted away from the Mansion like avoiding the Plague God.
After being deprived of his sword ridians, Chu Feng had felt quite disheartened already.
So issues that might impact Chu Feng had always been tightly concealed by Chu Jianlan. He was never told about them.
Though the ones asking for his help were two beauties, Chu Feng was not the kind of man who would stop in his tracks because of them. He appeared very rational and would absolutely not reveal his real identity easily.
Lu’er and Han Xiaoying were trembling delicately, their gazes towards Chu Feng filled with shock and admiration.
rely from two glances, he could discern the current physical condition of Han Xiaoying. The abilities of this mysterious young man were certainly not low.
"Master, please help my young mistress..." Lu’er was utterly loyal to her own mistress.
Though just a maid, as Han Family’s young mistress’s private maid, her status was not low. Both her nature and vision were extrely high, and her pride was imnse.
At this mont, for her young mistress, she was willing to humbly plead with this mysterious master.
"Sorry! I can’t help with this, you should seek soone more capable!" Chu Feng showed no softening of his heart and decisively refused, then turned to walk away.
"Master, I know you definitely have the capability..." Lu’er still refused to give up.
"Lu’er, let it be! Don’t ask too much of others!" Han Xiaoying stopped her own maid.
...
Chu Feng successfully settled the transaction for selling the nine Golden Rune Protecting Body Elixirs.
Originally, a commission of five thousand four hundred silver taels was to be deducted, but the auction house wanted to win over this big client and only deducted four thousand silver taels, effectively handing him fifty thousand silver taels.
This is indeed a huge sum of money.
Even for an ordinary Third Grade Alchemist, it would take at least a year to earn so much silver.
Chu Feng only took a couple of days to earn it, and it must be said, when it cos to making money, he’s even faster than picking it up.
According to his plan, earning hundred thousand silver taels would be enough for him to elevate his cultivation to the Sword Master Realm in a short period of ti. Of course, when it cos to money, the more the better.
No one would complain about having too much.
Chu Feng, holding the earned silver, quietly returned to the dicine Guild’s Hall, and then bought dicinal materials to refine elixirs for enhancing his cultivation, which goes without saying.
The debt owed to Niu Baotian last ti was also repaid.
A re six hundred plus silver taels were really nothing for Chu Feng who possessed fifty thousand silver taels.
...
On the second floor of the Golden Talisman Sect Store, not even the store clerks and managers are allowed to go up without permission.
In the opulently decorated, restrained spacious office, Manager Qiu of the store was fretting and restless.
"Are you sure that nine high-quality Golden Rune Protecting Body Elixirs were auctioned off in a row at the Royal Capital’s auction?" Manager Qiu asks the store’s Chief Steward in front of him.
"Absolutely certain, and they publicly announced that there will be a series of high-quality Golden Talisman Elixirs to be auctioned in the future!" The Chief Steward, Manager Qiu’s deputy, is specifically responsible for assisting Manager Qiu in managing the store’s operations.
And for gathering market intelligence.
When the Chief Steward received this alarming news, he didn’t even have ti to sip his tea and imdiately ran to consult with Manager Qiu with a grave expression on his face.
If the stores of the Golden Talisman Sect in the Jianyun Dynasty are mismanaged, all these accountable executives would face punishnt.
After listening, Manager Qiu frowned and sank into contemplation, his face very grim.
"The sudden appearance of a large batch of high-quality Golden Talisman Elixirs at the auction will definitely have a huge impact on our store’s business! If I’m not wrong, there must have erged an incredible Golden Talisman Elixir genius in the Jianyun Dynasty recently."
"It won’t do, I have to go to the auction myself to find out who this new genius is. If we could get him to join our Golden Talisman Sect, it would be a great achievent!"
Manager Qiu is truly a leader, quickly deducing the course of events.
"Old Ma, you’ve been my deputy for not just a year or two! For day-to-day matters, handing them over to you, I could be at ease."
"The ergence of such a formidable alchemy genius, and yet you had no clue, is truly unacceptable! Our Golden Talisman Sect Store controls almost all the materials necessary for making Golden Talisman Elixirs."
"This person must have bought engraving tools and materials from our store. If we could have discovered this talent earlier, we wouldn’t have let the auction house snatch such a big deal."
Manager Qiu’s tone was very cold, filled with reproach.
Such a formidable Golden Talisman Elixir genius erged and the store’s clerks, managers, and Chief Steward were all unaware. This is a dereliction of duty.
"Indeed, this oversight is my fault. I will thoroughly investigate and give a satisfactory explanation to Manager!" Manager Ma also imdiately declared his stance, looking very serious.
The two executive figures of the Golden Talisman Sect Store imdiately took action.
One to conduct a thorough internal investigation, the other to head to the auction to investigate who exactly this mysterious alchemist is.
If they knew that this mysterious Talismanic Elixir genius had once been doused with water and chased out of the store by that irresponsible Manager Sun, they would definitely have crushed Manager Sun to death.
