uld have such an incompetent quack."Your son doesn't have a stomach ailment at all, he has liver poisoning."The moment these words were spoken, the three people present were all stunned into silence.J...The moment the three characters "Gan Feng Wan" appeared, the discussions downstairs instantly grew louder.

"Even the Fūfūdama appeared!"

"I heard that this thing is only sold in Kyoto Castle, a small pill costs dozens of taels of silver."

"Isn't it just a medicine for wind-cold fever How can it be so expensive"

Although these people say this, they all know deep down that Xizhou is vast with mountains and forests, and its climate is the most suitable for medicinal herbs to grow.

This is the territory where Dayi medicinal herbs are produced in the highest quantities. The severe drought here has directly led to a sharp decline in the supply of medicinal herbs on the market. With insufficient supply, all kinds of medicinal herbs have become precious.

Not to mention that winter is still a high-incidence season for wind-cold and fever, although Feeling Wind Pills are expensive, as long as you take them for three days, they can cure the disease.

If you change to another prescription, it would take at least half a month of taking the soup medicine for it to improve.

Not only is the amount of medicinal ingredients large, but the effect is also not half as good as that of the wind-dispelling pills.

It's justifiable to sell at a high price.

"Hey everyone, if you're not interested in this Wind-Chaser Pill, when it gets auctioned off later, could you please not compete with me for it"

"I urgently need this medicine at home, please help!"

A middle-aged businessman's humble request.

Others find this wind-dispelling pill expensive, but he doesn't mind! Nowadays, the wind-cold medicine on the market either has poor quality or is adulterated. Even if you buy it, it won't work well.

After going back and forth several times, not only did we spend more money, but also a lot of time and effort. More importantly, the patient suffered a lot.

Anyway, he's not short of money. If it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't find a way to buy these Wind-Moving Pills anywhere else, why would he be so humble at an auction, begging others to give them to him

All those people who just now complained about the price of the wind pills, suddenly fell silent upon hearing this.

The wealthy businessman's fawning, humble smile froze immediately. Someone saw that the atmosphere was too awkward and tried to smooth things over.

"They are all here for the auction, and naturally, the highest bidder gets what they want."

"That's right, why are you asking for help"

The honest businessman had no choice but to silently return to his seat and stop talking. The friend who had just tried to smooth things over for him also sat down next to him.

"Lin, let it go."

These people say they don't care about the Fengwan pills, but secretly, they all want them.

"Don't take their words too seriously."

The wealthy merchant sighed and nodded, "My daughter has been sickly since she was young. She's had a cold for over a month now and still hasn't gotten better."

“If I can't buy the wind-chasing pill this time, I'm really afraid of her, she...”

He was afraid his daughter wouldn't make it through the year.

Liao Jinshi upstairs heard the conversation clearly. These two people were located just below her single room.

Fang Jinxiu looked thoughtfully at the auction platform.

She handed over her last batch of wind-relieving pills to the Liu family. The recipe for the wind-relieving pills was sold to Master Wang.

Suddenly, she turned her gaze to the guests seated on the first floor. This time, it wasn't a sweeping glance, but a conscious search.

But she searched and searched, yet she never found that familiar figure.

Fang Jinshu's heart was filled with joy. She looked up at the other single rooms on the second floor. Each room here was semi-enclosed, with a large window facing the auction platform.

Her gaze swept across the windows of each room, and sure enough, she saw Wang Gongzi's figure in one of them.

Suddenly, Fang Jinshu's expression froze. Sitting across from Wang Dajun was Zhao Xingzhou

He wasn't at odds with Wang Dashuai, was he

For some reason, Fang Jinshu subconsciously didn't want Zhao Xingzhou to know she was here.

He then closed his window a little, leaving only half open so he could still see the auction stage clearly.

The auction was about to begin, and their group watched intently as the auctioneer took charge.

"Thank you all for attending this auction despite your busy schedules. This year's auction items are indeed some that we don't usually see, and I believe they will definitely not disappoint you."

"Alright, let the auction begin."

"Gentlemen, the first item is now up for auction."

An auctioneer walked onstage carrying a box shrouded in black cloth. The auctioneer began with a series of dramatic pronouncements, piquing the guests' curiosity before finally unveiling the concealed contents.

"This creature is a top-grade poisonous insect that grows in the barbaric lands. Consuming this insect has the effect of prolonging life and enhancing longevity."

"If you can find the mother of this insect, if two people swallow it together, even if they are thousands of miles apart, they can sense each other's presence and share pain."

"Amazing."

Fang Jinxiu rested her chin in one hand, lazily leaning against the window as she listened with interest to the auctioneer's enthusiastic praise of the pair of mother-and-child centipedes.

It's not that the people on stage are being deceitful. On the contrary, the pain they describe is real, and their claims about swallowing worm larvae having longevity benefits are also true.

However, the auctioneers weren't being honest either, only telling half the story.

Most of the noblemen present knew little about medical sorcery.

To achieve the effect of longevity with Zi Gu, there are prerequisites. The person must be on the verge of death. While it is said to prolong life, it is actually only a temporary reprieve, a flickering light before extinction.

To allow dying people to live for another year and a half, only to die in a way that is a hundred times more painful.

In her opinion, the effect of this kind of worm is negligible, it's better not to eat it.there were so many people, she wouldn't dare to say anythingIt's too funny."Do you want this fish" she asked with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.Fang Dazhu immediately replied, "What do you mean we...
