Chapter 32: Just Seventeen

    

to a severe bacterial infection, causing your immune system to collapse, putting your life in danger! You know we have several patients every year who, because they refused amputation, ended up draggi..."Guest minister" Fang Chen was taken aback.

Yan Qiao-Lin cupped her hands together and said, "Young Master Fang, as long as you agree! This one is willing to give you the highest level of treatment. Besides becoming our Wanxing's top member, you can also enjoy the highest treatment and privileges in all Wanxing Auction House branches, with a 30% discount. In addition, we will also give you a yearly stipend of one hundred thousand spirit stones!"

Fang Chen was very moved by this.

Lin Xueyan beside him could no longer maintain her cool demeanor. She widened her eyes and covered her small mouth with her hands! Her eyes were full of shock!

She didn't expect that the Wanxing Auction House would offer such generous terms to invite Fang Chen!

You need to know! A month ago, Fang Chen was just a useless wastrel with no cultivation.

But now, it's only been a short time, and he has already become a distinguished guest of Wanxing Auction House!

And when Yan Qiao-lin saw that Fang Chen didn't immediately agree, she became nervous and asked, "Young Master Fang, is there something you're not satisfied with We can talk about it again."

Fang Chen shook his head and said, "No, it's just that I need to spend a lot of time cultivating, so I can't help your company every day. So..."

"This is it!"

Yan Qiao-lin smiled sweetly and said, "Master Fang, you needn't worry. What you need to do is very simple. Just intervene when I cannot distinguish between real and fake objects."

To be honest, there aren't many things that I can tell the difference between. So you can mostly arrange your time yourself, just come when I need you.

Fang Chen was surprised, there's such a good thing!

This is an easy job with no work involved, just take the money and do nothing. If you refuse, then heaven and earth will not tolerate it.

"Well then, there's no problem." He nodded in agreement.

Yàn Qiǎolín's smile became even brighter, and more enchanting.

Then welcome Master Fang, no, Guest Minister Fang to join my Wanxing Auction House.

The hall erupted in thunderous applause!

Then, Yan Qiao-lin took out a jade pendant and respectfully presented it with both hands: "Mr. Fang, this is your first-rank guest envoy token. With this token, you can enjoy the highest treatment no matter which branch you go to. You only need to drip a drop of blood into the jade pendant to claim it."

The jade pendant was engraved with the Wanxing Auction House's emblem, with a single Chinese character in the center, exquisitely crafted.

The guest appraisers of Wanshin Auction House are divided into grades, with Grade One being the highest and Grade West being the lowest.

Fang Chen arrived in a flash, showcasing his remarkable talent right away! This clearly demonstrates the high regard Wanxing Auction House holds for him.

Fang Chen took the token, while Yan Qiao Lin took out another gold-rimmed pouch, equally finely crafted.

She introduced, "This is a specially made spatial storage bag from my sect. Its internal space is ten zhang in size, and one hundred thousand spirit stones are already stored within it.

"Storage bag!"

Fang Chen's eyes lit up. This storage bag was not cheap in the Divine East Region. One thousand spirit stones could only buy a one-zhang sized space.

A storage bag ten zhang in size would cost at least 10,000 spirit stones. Since it comes from the Wanxing Auction House, you'd need to add another 2,000 at least!

"This is too valuable," Fang Chen hurriedly said.

Yan Qiao-lin said, "Master Fang, these are just common courtesy gifts given to all the elders upon our meeting. Please accept them."

Only then did Fang Chen feel a slight sense of relief upon hearing this.

Onlooker Elder Lu twitched the corner of his mouth slightly. "Is that so" he muttered, bewildered. "How come I didn't receive any"

Of course, he wouldn't dare to say that out loud.

Immediately, Fang Chen bled to recognize the master, and he also became the guest elder of Wanxing Auction House.

"Just then, Fang Chen said, "I need some herbs to refine pills. Could you please help me check if there are any

"Could Fang Keqing be an alchemist!" Yan Qiao'lin's eyes sparkled with amazement!

Fang Chen didn't deny it, nodding and saying, "Well, but I can only refine second-order pills."

Although he inherited the legacy of a sixth-rank alchemist, alchemy is linked to his cultivation and spiritual power. Currently, he can only refine second-order pills.

"Second order!"

But Yan QiaoLin was even more excited, and Lin XueYan on the side also looked at Fang Chen in disbelief!

Yan Qiao-lin couldn't help but ask: "I wonder how old is Mr. Fang now"

Upon arriving at the seventeenth star chart, Fang Chen replied vaguely.

A collective gasp echoed through the room!

Alchemists are so sought after in mainland China because the threshold is extremely high, requiring an exceptional talent for alchemy!

Even if you have a talent, in the early stages you must understand tens of thousands of various kinds of alchemy materials, which can be said to be incredibly tedious.

Although it's considered tedious, alchemy is quite popular, so there are still many people striving to become alchemists.

And there are quite a few seventeen-year-olds like Fang Chen, and some even begin to differentiate medicinal herbs at the age of six or seven.

It is rare for someone to reach the rank of the second grade at the age of seventeen, and even the first grade is uncommon.

This is also the reason why everyone was so shocked!

"Good good good!"

Yanni's smile became even more brilliant and charming.

Even flushed with excitement, she was captivatingly alluring.

She couldn't wait to rush into Fang Chen's arms and kiss him passionately! This time, their Wanxing Auction House had finally struck gold!

"Just tell me what kind of materials Fang Keqing needs! I'll get them for her!"

She immediately had someone bring her writing supplies, and Fang Chen wrote down all the materials.

Then, Yan Qiao-lin instructed someone to quickly gather the information.

Fang Chen said: "I wonder how many spirit stones those materials would cost."

Yan Qiao-lin smiled and said, "Mr. Fang, you don't have to be polite. Consider this my treat. What do you think"

Between words, she also shot Fang Chen a flirtatious glance.

But Fang Chen remained unmoved, shaking his head firmly: "Thank you for the kindness, Yan Zhuang, but I must pay for this myself."

He is unwilling to owe too many favors.

Since she saw Fang Chen's firmness, Yan Qiao-lin didn't insist.

She understood that continuing to insist would only bring Fang Chen's displeasure.

"Alright, alright. Since Master Fang has said so, let's discount it to eighty percent for you. What do you think"

"Thank you for not refusing any of Fang Chen's requests. It's not a good idea to refuse him, as it would embarrass him."

Then, Yan Qiao-lin quickly calculated the total price.

The price isn't expensive either, after the 20% discount it's only 1521 spirit stones.

This is more than enough for someone like Fang Chen who became rich overnight.

Materials were soon gathered and delivered to Fang Chen.

"I wonder, Master Fang, where do you plan to refine your pills"

Fang Chen was taken aback. He suddenly remembered something very important! There wasn't a pill furnace!

He was suddenly a little embarrassed and didn't know how to start.

Yàn Qiǎo lín seeing this, smiled sweetly and said, “We have a dedicated alchemy room here for elders, which is also within your authority.”

"Well then, please trouble Shopkeeper Yan, Fang Chen," cupped his hands and bowed.

"Follow me"

Fang Chen nodded and stood up. Before leaving, he said to Lin Xueyan, who had just recovered from her shock: "Sister Lin, I'll take my leave now."

"Ah! Good." Lin Xueran nodded, and the stunning face lost a bit of its coldness, gaining a touch of cuteness that was very adorable.

Seeing this, Yan Qiao-lin gave Lu Changlao a wink.

Elder Lu instantly understood and nodded.

Immediately, Fang Chen left with Yan QiaoLin. Lin XueYan saw this and said, "Then I'll take my leave too.

"

Elder Lu called out to Lin Xueyan: "Miss Lin, please wait a moment."

"Does Elder Lu have anything else"

Lu Elder smiled faintly and said, "This time we broke off cooperation with the Yi family, and we are considering finding a new partner. I remember that the Lin family is also in this business. Otherwise, why don't our two families cooperate Just like the Yi family provided us before, your Lin family can provide us the same amount. Of course, the price will remain the same. What do you think"

Upon hearing these words, Lin Xueyan's delicate body trembled slightly, her expression one of disbelief.ushed while looking forward expectantly, wondering whether to agree or not.Finally, the handwriting formed by the power of heaven and earth is fully displayed.When she saw the words above, she was fir...
