Chapter 107: Shennong Hall

The night in Jiangbei is like ink, with neon lights flickering in the distance, draping this bustling city in a layer of hazy attire.

On the other side, Lin Feng called Li Hongda to ask him to source two medicinal ingredients.

Jiangbei City is surrounded by mountains on all sides and has been rich in medicinal ingredients since ancient times; however, those rare and precious ingredients are all monopolized by Shennong Hall.

Shennong Hall is the largest medicinal trading center in Jiangbei, and Li Hongda has a close relationship with the boss of Shennong Hall.

Upon receiving Lin Feng's call, Li Hongda rushed over in less than ten minutes.

As soon as he got out of the car, Li Hongda saw Lin Feng standing at the entrance of Shennong Hall.

He hurriedly put on a respectful expression and went up to greet him: "Mr. Lin, if you need medicinal ingredients, just give me a call and tell me; I would have delivered them to you personally!"

"Why trouble yourself to come over in person!"

"The few medicinal ingredients I am looking for are only available at Shennong Hall, and I know you have a good relationship with the boss of Shennong Hall!"

"I asked you to come over so you could help me put in a word and have him sell the items to me!" Lin Feng smiled faintly.

Hearing this, Li Hongda was stunned for a moment: "Mr. Lin, what kind of medicinal ingredients are so precious that only Shennong Hall has them?"

If they were ordinary medicinal ingredients, Lin Feng would never have been unable to find them; hearing his words, Li Hongda also revealed a look of surprise.

"A hundred-year-old Blood Jade Qilin Ginseng, and Phoenix Eye Bodhi!" Lin Feng explained.

Once these words were spoken, the corners of Li Hongda's mouth twitched instantly!

Blood Jade Qilin Ginseng and Phoenix Eye Bodhi are both top-tier existences; he has only seen them once or twice in his half-lifetime.

Blood Jade Qilin Ginseng grows in the crevices of scorching volcanic rock, and its growth environment is exceptionally harsh.

Even ten-year or twenty-year-old ones are very rare, and they can sell for millions at any time.

Not to mention a hundred-year-old one; he had never even heard of a hundred-year-old Blood Jade Qilin Ginseng.

As for the other one, Phoenix Eye Bodhi, this item is also no ordinary object, though it is much easier to find than Blood Jade Qilin Ginseng.

"Mr. Lin, you aren't joking, are you? A hundred-year-old Blood Jade Qilin Ginseng—let alone in Jiangbei, I'm afraid there aren't even a few stalks in the entire Dragon Kingdom!"

"If a hundred-year-old one can't be found, a fifty-year-old one will do!" Lin Feng smiled slightly.

These two things are indeed only available at Shennong Hall, but they are the treasures of the hall.

How could Shennong Hall possibly take such things out to sell to Lin Feng? Li Hongda felt uncertain in his heart.

However, since Lin Feng had a request of him, he certainly could not refuse.

"Mr. Lin, I will go in and ask for you. As for whether that old thing Fu Mingyuan is willing to sell them to you, that will depend on his mood!"

Fu Mingyuan is the Hall Master of Shennong Hall and also an old friend of Li Hongda, but that old thing has a fiery temper.

In all of Jiangbei, there isn't a single doctor who has come to buy medicine from him who hasn't been scolded.

Li Hongda walked straight in, and Lin Feng followed. As soon as they entered the door, an extremely rich fragrance of herbs rushed into their nasal cavities.

In the main hall, several wooden cabinets over ten meters high were placed side by side, with all kinds of medicinal ingredients on display.

"Where is that old thing?"

"A big shot wants to buy medicine from him, hurry up and call him out!" Li Hongda said to the shop assistant.

Seeing that Li Hongda had arrived, the shop assistant hurriedly revealed a respectful look: "Divine Doctor Li, Old Fu is refining medicine; I will go and invite him out right now!"

Li Hongda nodded. Soon, the shop assistant hurried into the back hall. A moment later, an old man wearing a long robe with disheveled hair and a dirty face walked out from inside.

Following behind him was a young girl; the girl had a beautiful face and was wearing a light blue dress, though her complexion was somewhat pale.

Lin Feng saw at a glance that there was something wrong with the girl's body, but he did not point it out directly.

At this moment, Fu Mingyuan suddenly frowned and looked coldly at Li Hongda: "Cripple Li, what are you doing running here in the middle of the night?"

'Cripple Li' was a nickname Fu Mingyuan gave Li Hongda because Li Hongda had injured his right leg several years ago and walked with a limp, only recovering after several years of treatment.

Therefore, Fu Mingyuan always called him Cripple Li, but although the two did not get along in their speech, their relationship was actually very good.

"Divine Doctor Lin wants to purchase some rare medicinal ingredients from you. I know you have them here, so I brought Divine Doctor Lin over to take a look!"

After Li Hongda finished speaking, Lin Feng took out a list; besides the Blood Jade Qilin Ginseng and Phoenix Eye Bodhi, there were five or six other medicinal ingredients.

After Fu Mingyuan finished reading the prescription, a burst of anger instantly surged onto his face: "Get out, get out, get out!"

"Not selling, not selling!"

"Cripple Li, these few medicinal ingredients are the treasures of my Shennong Hall; they aren't things that just anyone can buy if they want to!"

Swish! Fu Mingyuan's eyes turned to look at Lin Feng, who was standing to the side.

Seeing that Lin Feng was so young yet was called a 'Divine Doctor' by Li Hongda, Fu Mingyuan instantly revealed a deep sense of doubt.

"Old sir, these few medicinal ingredients are very important to me; name your price!"

As Lin Feng spoke, he took out a bank card directly.

"Cripple Li, where did this brat pop out from?"

"He actually has designs on my Shennong Hall?"

"I'm warning you, hurry up and take this brat away. A few days ago, big-shot figures from Jinling City came to my Shennong Hall to buy these very ingredients!"

"I didn't sell them to them, and I absolutely won't sell them to you!"

Blood Jade Qilin Ginseng has the effect of strengthening tendons and bones and promoting blood circulation to remove blood stasis; a Blood Jade Qilin Ginseng over twenty years old can restore a severely injured person to health.

Besides this, this thing also has the miraculous effect of prolonging life; it is precisely because of this that the heads of those top wealthy families come to him one after another to buy medicine.

Fu Mingyuan didn't even sell to the figures who came from Jinling City, so it was even more impossible for him to sell to Lin Feng.

Moreover, he suspected that Lin Feng was buying so many medicinal ingredients to resell them at a higher price for profit.

He had seen this kind of trick many times!

"Old thing, Mr. Lin's status is far more noble than those small fries from Jinling City!"

"If you can sell the medicinal ingredients to him, your Shennong Hall will definitely not suffer a loss!"

Not everyone can climb the mountain that is Lin Feng; the reason Li Hongda called Lin Feng a Divine Doctor just now was also to give Fu Mingyuan a reminder.

As long as Fu Mingyuan wasn't a fool, he would definitely sell the medicinal ingredients to Lin Feng, thereby letting Lin Feng owe him a favor.

The favor of Master Lin cannot be measured by money.

"Heh!"

"Limping Li, you aren't colluding with this kid to swindle my items, are you?"

"What kind of bullshit Divine Doctor; I have never seen such a young Divine Doctor!"

"If you really are a Divine Doctor, then cure my granddaughter's illness. If you can cure her, I will sell the medicinal materials to you!" Fu Mingyuan said with cold sarcasm.

As soon as these words were spoken, Li Hongda's expression immediately turned unsightly.

A moment later, he suddenly glared at Fu Mingyuan with a face full of anger: "Fu Mingyuan, don't you go making things difficult for people!"

"Dozens of famous doctors have already seen your granddaughter's illness; it is an Innate genetic defect and an incurable disease!"

"You asking Divine Doctor Lin to treat your granddaughter, aren't you just looking for trouble?"

At this moment, the stunningly beautiful young girl behind Fu Mingyuan suddenly revealed a smile.

"Grandfather, stop joking around with me!"

"Divine Doctor Li has already pleaded on this gentleman's behalf; why don't you just do a good deed and sell the medicinal materials to him?"

"These medicinal materials are just sitting there anyway, so it would be better to sell them and let them fulfill their proper value!"

"Besides, there is always someone coming to the door every few days threatening you to sell the medicinal materials to them. It would be better to sell them and avoid attracting unnecessary trouble!"

The young girl's pair of watery, large eyes seemed to hide the stars; she spoke with exceptional gentleness, and her whole being exuded the temperament of a young lady from a prominent family.

At this moment, Lin Feng revealed a confident smile: "This young lady's illness is not an incurable disease!"

"I can cure her!"

As soon as these words were spoken, both Fu Mingyuan and the young girl were slightly stunned!

But the next moment, Fu Mingyuan burst into laughter: "If you can cure my granddaughter, never mind selling them to you, I will even give these few medicinal materials to you for free!"
