Chapter 232: Grandfather can afford it

~8 min read 1,452 words

Refining the "Flash of Light Before Death Pill" is not difficult.

Just some relatively common medicinal materials will do.

Taking advantage of the fact that the auction hadn't immediately started auctioning the top-grade purple ginseng, Ye Chen found Qin Gang and gave him a list of more than a dozen medicinal materials.

Qin Gang immediately went to help him gather the medicinal materials.

Subsequently, Ye Chen came to the lounge rented by Qin Gang and refined four "Flash of Light Before Death Pills" by himself.

Because Chinese medicine is all composed of herbal ingredients, once boiled, no matter what the prescription is for or how different it is, the medicinal soup is black-brown.

The medicinal pills are the same.

The color of this "Flash of Light Before Death Pill" is almost the same as the previous divine medicine, and Ye Chen deliberately made the size exactly the same as the previous divine medicine. The naked eye cannot see any difference at all.

Subsequently, he came to the auction hall, took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, gave these four pills to Shi Shi Tianqi, and took back the one and a half divine pills Shi Shi Tianqi had on him to keep for him.

After doing all this, the auction also entered the segment of bidding for the top-grade purple ginseng.

Soon, the host walked onto the stage and said, "Next, we will start bidding for our final finale medicinal material, the three-hundred-year-old top-grade purple ginseng! Before starting the bidding, we invite the famous divine physician, Old Master Shi Shi Tianqi, to personally identify our top-grade purple ginseng!"

Shi Shi Tianqi had promised the organizer before coming that he would identify this top-grade purple ginseng on the spot, so he stepped to the center and took the top-grade purple ginseng from the ceremonial lady's hand.

After careful identification, he said, "Everyone, in my humble opinion, the actual lifespan of this top-grade purple ginseng should be around three hundred and fifty years or even higher. It can be called the best of the best. Please rest assured!"

The crowd at the scene let out a burst of exclamation!

They thought it was three hundred years old, but they didn't expect it to be over three hundred and fifty years old. This was truly amazing!

Ye Chen couldn't help but look at Shi Shi Tianqi with admiration. He didn't expect him to be able to see the actual age of this top-grade purple ginseng. It seemed he indeed had very strong attainments in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

At this time, the host smiled and said, "Old Master Shi is learned in both ancient and modern times and is a well-deserved medical saint. A few days ago, Old Master Shi cured a paraplegic patient and created a miracle in medical history. I think everyone has heard of this matter. Therefore, with Old Master Shi's identification opinion, everyone can put their hearts at ease regarding this top-grade purple ginseng."

When Shi Shi Tianqi returned to his seat, a weathered voice suddenly sounded from behind: "Old Man Shi, paraplegia is an incurable disease that both Chinese and Western medicine have no way to deal with. How exactly did you cure it? I don't believe you can really cure it. Tell me, was it a blind cat meeting a dead mouse?"

Shi Shi Tianqi looked toward where the sound came from, and after seeing clearly who it was, he smiled, "Fang Chunlin, why are you here instead of staying in your National Medical Hall?"

National Medical Hall! Hearing this title, the people around were shocked.

This National Medical Hall is known as the contemporary imperial physician! It is the representative of the highest level of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the country!

Fang Chunlin laughed at this time and said, "I just came to see if you really have that ability. The rumors outside are too mysterious; I don't believe it."

Shi Shi Tianqi smiled slightly and said, "They are indeed just rumors. You really don't have to believe them."

Fang Chunlin was stunned. He didn't expect Shi Shi Tianqi to be so humble? He thought he would be serious, but who would have thought he would deny it directly? This made him not know what to say for a moment.

At this time, the host said, "Next, we will start bidding for this three-hundred-year-old top-grade purple ginseng. Its starting bid is five million, and each increase must not be less than one million. Everyone can raise their placards now."

The host had a sweet smile. After speaking, she stood to the side.

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Wei Wei Changming in the back row raise his placard and shout, "Ten million."

The crowd gasped. This three-hundred-year-old top-grade purple ginseng had its price doubled directly on the first call.

Wei Wei Changming knew that if this top-grade purple ginseng kept being bid on, it might reach twenty or thirty million, so he simply doubled it directly to scare others off, hoping to steal a win.

"Eleven million." A middle-aged man in the field also raised his placard and shouted.

Wei Wei Changming glanced at the man with disdain and raised his placard again: "Fifteen million."

"Sixteen million."

Someone else said.

"Twenty-five million." Wei Wei Changming raised his placard.

This time he was participating in the bidding on behalf of Xiao Yikhen, and the bid would also be borne by Xiao Yikhen, so he didn't feel any heartache at all.

The price of twenty-five million made many people have the idea of giving up.

Although top-grade purple ginseng is good, the effect one plant can have is also limited. Twenty-five million is already a very high price.

However, just at this moment, someone suddenly shouted at the scene, "I bid thirty million!"

The crowd hurriedly looked for the sound, only to find that the one who bid was actually Ye Chen, who was sitting next to Shi Shi Tianqi.

Wei Wei Changming and Xiao Yikhen didn't expect Ye Chen to compete with them at this time, so the two exchanged a look. Xiao Yikhen took the placard from Wei Wei Changming's hand, raised it, and said, "Forty million!"

Xiao Yikhen knew very well that this guy Ye Chen was very difficult to deal with. Once he got entangled with him, he didn't know how high the price would be called!

Moreover, this guy didn't look like he could buy it. He must know that he needed this top-grade purple ginseng to regain his male prowess, so he was deliberately making trouble for him and wanted to raise the price to disgust him.

So, he prepared to call it to forty million in one step, letting Ye Chen not dare to follow!

However, Ye Chen raised his placard again at this time and said lightly, "I bid fifty million!"

In his pocket, he still had the one hundred million yuan check that Song Wanting had given him last time.

Last time, he mistakenly gave this check to his mother-in-law Ma Lan, which almost caused a disaster, making him very unhappy with this check. He had been thinking about finding an opportunity to spend it, so he had already prepared today to use this one-hundred-million-yuan check to bid for this top-grade purple ginseng!

Anyway, besides this one-hundred-million-yuan check, he had plenty of money in his card. In his eyes, this check was just a piece of waste paper that he didn't know how to deal with, and today it finally came in handy.

Hearing Ye Chen bid fifty million, Xiao Yikhen was furious.

He gritted his teeth and said to Wei Wei Changming, "This damn loser is deliberately trying to go against me! Fifty million, it would be strange if he could take out so much money!"

Wei Wei Changming also nodded and cursed, "This kid is really bad to the core. This top-grade purple ginseng is actually worth about twenty million. Buying it for fifty million is really too wasteful; it can be said to be a sucker."

Xiao Yikhen gritted his teeth and said, "Damn, I'll bid another round with him and see. My body's problem can't wait any longer!"

After speaking, he raised his placard and shouted coldly, "I bid sixty million!"

He thought, sixty million, do you still dare to bid, Ye Chen?

Unexpectedly, Ye Chen raised his placard directly: "I bid eighty million!"

Xiao Yikhen exploded instantly, stood up, and questioned loudly, "Ye, what do you mean? What the hell are you shouting? Eighty million, can you afford so much money?"

Ye Chen said with a smile on his face, "Don't worry, grandson, Grandfather can afford it!" ===== CHAPTER 233 =====
