319: Green with Regret

Green with Regret

In the blink of an eye, the Jing family's auction house held an auction for Chi Shuyan's pill. She didn't participate directly, but instructed Qi Zhenbai to help her raise the price.1

She was faintly aware that the Jing family was determined to get this pill, and suspected that the auction house wouldn't really let any other competitors know about it. After telling Qi Zhenbai about it, the man said that he would deal with it.

She had an estimate in her heart, but when she received the money, she realized that it was far more than she had thought.

This man was really a god of fortune!

Because of the red packets she had received from the Qi family and this sum of money, Chi Shuyan was in a good mood for a while. She didn't know if it was because she had been quite lucky recently, but just as she received the sky-high profits for the pill, she also received the supplementary card which Qi Zhenbai had arranged for her.

She was especially curious about the limit on the card. After calling the bank to check, Chi Shuyan sucked in a sharp breath when she learned what the limit was.

She finally understood what Zhu Bocheng meant when he said that her husband was a golden thigh.

Tsk!

With this card, she really didn't have to do anything in the future and could just stay at home. But Chi Shuyan didn't really plan to use the card from this man. It would be safer to use her own money. Moreover, she spent a lot. As for when they really registered their marriage later, it wouldn't be too late to spend his money then.

Because of her recent fortune, Chi Shuyan didn't plan to look into stone gambling immediately. When she was free, she would take that kid, Lu Chengfu, with her.

As for the medicinal pills, she didn't plan to refine a medicinal pill of a higher level than a level 3 Energy Recovery Pill. For one thing, medicinal pills were scarce in this world, and for another, it was already very eye-catching for her to take out an extraordinary level 3 Energy Recovery Pill. If she took out another one, wouldn't she be targeted?

As for cooperating with the Jing family to sell low-grade pills, she could still consider it. As for the level 3 Energy Recovery Pill, she would put it aside for now.

Chi Shuyan didn't know that her pill had caused a huge stir in the auction house.

That was after the Jing family head bought the pill at a high price.

In fact, the Jing family didn't use any underhanded methods to bid for the pill, but speculated that the other reclusive families wouldn't immediately believe that there was such a thing. At most, they would send their juniors out to show their faces and investigate the matter in passing, and wouldn't take the risk of really buying the pill.

The Jing family had schemed against the other reclusive families, but Qi Zhenbai came out of nowhere and raised the price.

In the end, the Jing family head did buy the pill, but at a price which pained him. One could imagine how powerful Qi Zhenbai was.

It was because of Qian Zhengde that the Jing family head gritted his teeth and bid for the pill. He had wanted to give up during the auction, but when he took the pill that night, the pain and even slight regret at buying the pill was replaced with delight and excitement.

The Jing family head's ancient martial arts had always been stuck at the seventh level, the Perfection Stage, because he usually ate too many pills on a daily basis, and the pills they refined always had too many impurities. As these impurities built up, they worsened his old injuries. Not to mention advancing, it was already good that his martial strength hadn't deteriorated.

But when he took the Energy Recovery Pill that night, the Jing family head sensed the bottleneck in his body give way, and he advanced directly because of the abundance of spiritual energy.

This was something neither the Jing family head nor the Jing family had ever expected, so one could imagine their shock and excitement over this pill.

It really wasn't a loss to buy this medicinal pill!

That night, the Jing family head immediately sent a message to Qian Zhengde, telling him to persuade the alchemist to cooperate with the Jing family, no matter the cost.

He thus could understand the benefits of this pill.

At the same time, word of the Jing family head's advancement spread among the other reclusive families, causing shock and disbelief!

They had already confirmed that it had to do with the pill. The families that had only appeared and not participated in the auction before all turned green with regret!
