Chapter 442 Dumbfounded

"My lord..." Seeing that Lin Xiao was being bullied and humiliated by them, Peony burst into tears, and her face was full of guilt. She was all to blame. She should first check to see if these three people were there.

"It's okay." Lin Xiao smiled slightly at Peony. Lin Xiao didn't dislike this little maid who protected her.

Seeing that Lin Xiao was still smiling, Mudan became even more anxious.

"It's all my fault. If I knew they were here, I wouldn't have let you come here, sir."

Lin Xiao was not good at comforting people, but when he saw her crying all the time, he gave her a comforting look, then turned and walked towards the frame that Pang Tianning said was where the herbs were placed.

This is a small bamboo basket, and there are some extremely low-quality spirit herbs piled up sparsely inside, some of which are still missing a part. Lin Xiao just glanced at it lightly, and hasn't spoken yet. Lan Zhengtian next to her Just jump feet.

"Ahhhh, it's really deceiving people too much. I'm mad at the old man. I'm mad at the old man." Lan Zheng flew around in the yard, even flew to the side of Pang Tianning and the three of them, punching and kicking them.

It's a pity that he is a soul body, and he can't cause any harm to the opponent at all, and he doesn't even feel it.

"How about it, have you chosen it?" Pang Tianning's voice was still arrogant, and this time there was some ridicule in it.

Why are there only three alchemists in the City Lord's Mansion for so many years?This is of course not that the City Lord's Mansion can't afford to hire people, but that any alchemist invited will definitely not be able to stand the ostracism or embarrassment of the three of them within three months, and finally choose to leave.

To say why they did it?It is nothing more than because Twilight City has a lot of oil and water, and there are many benefits that can be obtained. Every year, Sikong Yi will keep asking people to buy spirit herbs from other places in the mainland. It was used in alchemy, but it went into their own pockets.

It's not that Sikong Yi is ignorant of these things, it's just that he couldn't find a higher level alchemist than them, and the three of them did bring a lot of profits to the auction house every year, so he just turned a blind eye up.

As for those alchemists who left, some of them defected to the royal family or aristocrats of a certain country, and some set up their own businesses and opened a shop specializing in selling pills to make money while practicing.

Anyway, the honor of pharmacists, in this continent, they can get along no matter where they are, why bother to be so useless here?

Therefore, when Peony brought Lin Xiao over, and the three of them heard that Lin Xiao was a pharmacist, their first reaction was to make her look bad. In addition, Lin Xiao looked young. In the eyes of the three, even the three of them To embarrass her, the city lord will definitely not say anything.

After all, the pills that the three of them brought to the Twilight City Auction House every year earned a lot of gold coins for the city lord.

Lin Xiao ignored the three of them, but slowly squatted down, rummaged in the bamboo basket, and called back to Lan Zhengtian while searching.

"Old man, can you see if the medicinal materials in here are still usable?"

Lan Zhengtian whirled over, stopped behind Lin Xiao, and watched her rummaging.

"Well, there are still some that can be used. This white flame fruit leaf can still be used, and this one, Xingyuecao, although a piece of this Wumin fruit is rotten, it can barely be used after cutting off the rotten part, and this one, This is barely usable.”

Lan Zhengtian said while pointing at the herbs in the frame.

Lin Xiao listened to Lan Zhengtian's words, picked up all the medicinal materials he pointed out, took a beautiful small basket from the storage ring, and put it in gently, with extremely careful movements, as if these medicinal materials were so rare The gems are average.

But Pang Tianning and the others looked at Lin Xiao's action with contempt in their eyes.

Manager Ji stood at the door and saw these things in his eyes, sighed in disappointment, then shook his head and walked in.

"How many of you are here!" Director Ji greeted everyone as he entered the door.

Pang Tianning and the others didn't expect Manager Ji to come here at this time, so they quickly put away the expressions on their faces and put on a non-human appearance again. It's a pity that their pretentiousness fell into the eyes of Manager Ji, and he despised it even more in his heart up.

"It turned out to be Director Ji. What brought you to the pill room. It seems that it's not time to pay the pills every month."

There was a smile on Pang Tianning's face, but his expression was still proud.

It's a pity, Manager Ji didn't intend to be polite to them today, he just ignored the three of them, went straight to Lin Xiao not far away, bent over, and saluted.

"Miss Lin."

Lin Xiao looked at him, just nodded lightly, then ignored it, and sorted out the medicinal materials in the basket on her own. She was sorting out the medicinal materials that could be used in the bamboo basket, just now. Halfway through, it was interrupted by Manager Ji coming in.

While Lan Zhengtian continued to scold Pang Tianning for the three trash, he helped Lin Xiao tidy them up, using his experience to help Lin Xiao distinguish what could be used.

It's very simple. From their point of view, although these medicinal materials are defective products, they are still very good to use. Sometimes, when refining a certain kind of elixir, it is possible to use half a plant of spirit grass or a piece of two At this time, these defective products can exert their value.

And Pang Tianning, these three idiots, actually thought of throwing them away.

Mudan was already frightened when Director Ji entered the door. She was in charge of the Zhenbao Pavilion, but she appeared in the Dan Room. If Manager Ji pursued it, she would be punished. Moreover, she even brought someone to the Dan Room privately. , Combining punishment for two crimes, she will lie in bed for at least two or three months.

Just as Mudan Zhanweiwei was thinking about what to do next, he saw Director Ji salute Lin Xiao with an extremely respectful attitude, and Mudan was immediately stunned.

Just as dumbfounded as Mudan were Pang Tianning and the other three. Director Ji was in the City Lord's Mansion, so no one knew better than the three of them what his identity was in the entire Twilight City.

Manager Ji had already been in the City Lord's Mansion when the old City Lord was still there, and he has always been in charge of everything in the City Lord's Mansion, as well as most of the businesses in the city.

When the old city lord went away and passed the position of the city lord to Sikong Yi, a person who could not cultivate, everyone thought that Director Ji would not accept it, and that Twilight City might change.

However, what happened next caught everyone’s expectations. Not only did Director Ji not touch every plant and tree in Twilight City, he even spared no effort to help Sikong Yi who had just become the city lord. With his and Sikong Yi’s joint efforts, Twilight City It has the scale it is today.

In other words, Manager Ji is equivalent to the existence of the deputy city lord in Twilight City.

But now, he actually saluted such a young girl, and it was a big gift. When the three of them came to the city lord's mansion to serve, they just asked Director Ji to nod slightly to show politeness!

The faces of the three of them changed drastically in an instant!

 Sorry, it seems that alchemist is written as alchemist in some places above, sorry, it is actually the same, and I will change it later
