Chapter 540: 486 The wealthy lady Ying Zijin: You can try it [1 more update] Chapter 540: 486 The wealthy lady Ying Zijin: You can try it [1 more update] The Third Elder knew clearly that those ancestors of the Ancient dicine Families must have clenched in their hands plentiful prescriptions and Acupuncture Techniques.
These things are not all written in books.
Without a teacher to pass down the knowledge and guide the way, they are unattainable.
But those ancestors didn’t co out either.
The last ti, the ancestor of the Foo Family had co out when delivering a Foo Family traitor to the Ling Family.
But the Lin Family didn’t find any evidence of transactions between the Foo Family’s ancestor and the Ling Family.
Lin Qingjia’s dical skills surpassed those of the older generation of ancient dicine practitioners because she was innovative.
The Third Elder was one hundred and twenty years old this year, an age that in the Ancient Martial World would still be considered in one’s pri.
He understood so things much more than Lin Qingjia did, the ancient dical field has been on the decline.
When ancient dicine first appeared those decades ago, it was far stronger than it is now.
And because of the decline of ancient dicine, ancient martial artists have fewer external aids to rely on.
Lin Qingjia made many contributions to the ancient dical field, making it very convenient for the Lin Family to consult with ancient doctors.
That’s why the Lin Family spared no expense in nurturing Lin Qingjia.
“Third Elder, you—” Lin Qingjia hadn’t had the chance to stop him when the Third Elder already parted the curtains and walked out.
He looked towards the private room where the previous voice ca from and saw the na of the room—
Shadow of Candle Shakes Red.
The Third Elder’s expression changed slightly, “Judicial Hall?”
Aside from the Lin, Yue, and Xie major clans, the Judicial Hall also had several fixed private rooms, the difference being theirs were all nad with four characters.
So just based on the na of the private room, the Third Elder could recognize it at a glance.
No wonder they had the audacity to contend with the Lin Family.
Hearing this, Lin Qingjia frowned, “If it is the Judicial Hall, then let’s just give up.”
“Qingjia, if you want it, this old man will bid for it.” The Third Elder said indifferently, “The auction is fair; if the Judicial Hall wants it, they also need the money.”
The Judicial Hall itself was very wealthy, but that didn’t an that the people from the Judicial Hall were.
The Judicial Hall was essentially a governing body within the Ancient Martial World, just like the Yi Character Team in the Imperial Capital.
If the Lin Family’s ancestor were to co out, the Judicial Hall wouldn’t have an ancient martial artist at that level of cultivation.
However, when it ca to the ancestor’s generation, that also depended on whether they were willing to co out or not, even the Elders Council couldn’t invite them.
They would only co out in tis that concerned the life and death of the Lin Family.
“It’s not too important.” Lin Qingjia smiled, trying to persuade, “Third Elder, take a step back, there’s no need to provoke a conflict with the Judicial Hall.”
The Third Elder was sowhat unwilling to concede, but upon such persuasion, he decided to go with the flow.
He nodded, “Since you say it’s not important, I will definitely bid for the next few dicinal materials for you.”
But later on, not to ntion the Third Elder, even Lin Qingjia herself couldn’t sit still.
She needed seven types of dicinal materials in total, and now that five had appeared, all were taken by the Judicial Hall.
And the price of each dicinal material far exceeded the Lin Family’s estimates.
The Lin Family had extensive property and business, but they hadn’t brought so much money to an auction; most of their resources were ant for nurturing the younger generation.
At this mont, the next item began.
On stage, the auctioneer introduced, “This dicinal herb is called Purple Frost Ganoderma. Its effects are well known to you ancient doctors. The starting bid is eight million, please bid.”
This was the highest starting bid for a dicinal material so far.
“Purple Frost Ganoderma is rather important to ,” said Lin Qingjia to the Third Elder, showing a fist and palm salute, “I would trouble the Third Elder to make sure to bid for this for .”
The Third Elder nodded, his face also looking very displeased.
He was just about to bid when the voice that had competed with him before preempted him.
“Ten million.”
The one responsible for bidding aloud was Yun Shan.
Of course, he was following Fu Yunshen’s wishes.
Their young master had only one flaw, which was having too much money.
The Third Elder’s face darkened as he gritted his teeth, “Fifteen million!”
Fu Yunshen remained unmoved, with a faint smile in his eyes and his long fingers lightly tapping on the table’s surface.
Yun Shan imdiately raised the bid, “Twenty million.”
“Twenty-five million!”
“Thirty million.”
“…”
After several rounds of bidding, the price of the dicinal material had soared to ninety million.
Not just the other guests, but even the auctioneer himself was stunned.
He only knew that the private room belonged to the Judicial Hall and was unaware of the identity of the person inside.
The Third Elder almost ground his teeth as he spoke, “One hundred million!”
One hundred million was equivalent to ten billion outside.
Fu Yunshen tilted his chin up, his lips curved in a smile, and a faint mischievousness in his peach blossom eyes, “Bid, five billion.”
