Seeing that they had gotten to know each other, Liu Yiyi also remembered their purpose for coming here. She took out her storage pouch and said to Uncle Bai, ”Uncle Bai, there are a lot of herbs. Please help us change the pills.”
Hearing Liu Yiyi's words, Uncle Bai's expression immediately collapsed. He wanted to say something, but he hesitated and said, ”Yiyi, I'm afraid this trip will be wasted. As for Uncle Bai, I'm afraid I can't buy you these herbs.”
Liu Yi Yi Yi was surprised and asked in surprise: ”Uncle Bai, why is that so?” Could it be that you find the quality of our medicine inferior? ”
”No, no, no.” Uncle Bai quickly waved his hand and said, ”The medicinal effects of the spiritual herbs produced by your spiritual field are definitely much higher than those on the market, but …”
”But what?” This was Liu Yiyi's first time on a mission down the mountain, so she was very concerned about the results. Upon hearing Uncle Bai's words, she immediately broke through to the bottom of her heart.
Sighing, a trace of bitterness surfaced on Uncle Bai's face. He raised his slightly aged hand and pointed at the empty shelf. ”Look, is there anything different about this shelf?”
”Different places?” Liu Yiyi and Chen Feng simultaneously looked at the shelves. They saw some goods scattered on the slightly old shelves.
”It's not that different.” Liu Yi Yi Yi's face was full of thoughts, but in the end, she still asked in confusion.
However, Chen Feng noticed something amiss. ”That's not right. There is indeed something different. To be exact, the items on the shelves are really too few. ”
After hearing Chen Feng's words, Liu Yiyi looked at the shelves again. Indeed, just as Chen Feng had said, there were very few goods on the shelves. There were even some shelves that were empty.
”What's going on?” Liu Yiyi asked. Even though she was a young girl, she knew that if a shop wanted to grow, there had to be enough goods. How could it be like the Return of Spring Hall where goods were so scarce?
A hint of hesitation flashed past Uncle Bai's face, but in the end, he sighed. He turned around and said to Chen Feng and Zhexiu, ”You are my daughter's schoolmates. I won't hide this from you.” The reason why the Return of Spring Hall has fallen to this stage is all because our alchemist is sick. ”
”Is he sick?” Chen Feng also felt somewhat surprised. ”Even an ordinary cultivator would not easily get sick, much less an alchemist who is constantly in contact with medicinal pills.”
”That's right, we have to start from the Eastwood Town Alchemist Exchange Assembly.” Uncle Bai smiled bitterly and didn't hide anything from them.
”Apothecary Exchange Conference?” Liu Yiyi's eyes lit up when she heard this.
Apothecary was an extremely mysterious occupation. In the Cloud Dragon Mountain Range, as long as one wore the title of an apothecary, he or she would be treated with respect by any of the major powers. Their Bi Luo Peak had once invited a pill refiner. However, the other party looked down on Bi Luo Feng and didn't agree.
Uncle Bai nodded. ”That's right. Tomorrow is the 50-year Alchemist Exchange Assembly in Eastwood Town.”
”Even though it's called the Exchange Hall, it's actually a competition between pill refiners. As long as you can get a good placing in the conference, you will have a lot of power in Eastwood Town.”
”Ever since the incident fifty years ago, my Return of Spring Hall has been squeezed by many great pill stores, and every day is getting worse and worse. It looks like I can't hold on much longer.” Therefore, my Eastwood Town's Master Tao of the Return of Spring Hall has decided to participate in this Pill Refiner's Exchange. If we can get a good rank, we might be able to pull the Hall of Spring back to make it a bit better. ”
