"Plus, combining Sugary Bloom with Bear Gall Powder can have an aphrodisiac effect," Xiao Zongting said, casting a strange glance at Duan Rong.
Duan Rong imdiately thought of the dicine, the spring dreams that night, and a map on his buttocks. His dark face suddenly turned red, and he grinned awkwardly.
"Dinner’s ready!" At that mont, Zhu Xiaoqi shouted from outside the door.
As soon as Zhu Xiaoqi finished speaking, there was a rustle inside, the curtain moved, and Xiao Baijiao walked out.
She noticed Duan Rong’s comical and peculiar expression, couldn’t help but smile slightly and walked out of the main room, heading to the east wing.
The faint scent Xiao Baijiao left behind lingered for a long ti!
Duan Rong glanced at the silhouette of Xiao Baijiao and sniffed!
"How much can you make in a day with your drawing?" Xiao Zongting asked as he collected the herbs.
"About a hundred taels a day."
Xiao Zongting looked at Duan Rong and smiled faintly.
This lad has so skills; he might soon beco quite wealthy.
He had originally planned to apply for a separate fund for Duan Rong, but it’s not easy to handle this affair.
The chief accountant of the inner courtyard, Xu Shouxian, this old rascal has been getting closer to Luan Jingfu these years, naturally becoming increasingly unapproachable.
And trying to get silver from that tightwad Xu Shouxian is like plucking feathers from an iron rooster.
To really make this happen, it would need to be handled through the shopkeeper of the Yuan Shun Escort Agency, Ruan Fengshan.
Now that Duan Rong has solved the resource issue himself, Xiao Zongting can stop worrying.
"I’ll write you a prescription. When you cultivate the second level later, use the dicine according to this prescription," Xiao Zongting said, fetching paper and pen, laying it on the table, and writing. "This is a prescription I tried years ago. Initially, there was a dicine to stimulate the spirit, which I removed after trying twice."
While Xiao Zongting was speaking intently, Zhu Xiaoqi stord in angrily, saying, "I said it’s ti to eat, but you’re still dawdling there; the dishes will get cold..."
Xiao Zongting raised his head and surprisingly smiled, saying, "Got it, got it."
For so reason, Duan Rong felt that Xiao Zongting seed to have a particularly good attitude towards Zhu Xiaoqi.
"Xiaoqi, serve this lad a bowl of rice too!"
Zhu Xiaoqi was slightly stunned, sizing Duan Rong up before twisting his waist and walking out of the main room.
Xiao Baijiao had already set the bowls and chopsticks. Suddenly, Zhu Xiaoqi served another bowl of rice and placed it on the table.
"Are you crazy, why serve another bowl?" Xiao Baijiao glared at Zhu Xiaoqi and teased.
"The master said the lad in the main room should eat here today too."
"Really? Dad said?" Xiao Baijiao felt a bit surprised.
"Uh-huh."
Her dad had been the chief tutor for so many years and never invited anyone to a al before! Does the lad have so background?
"What’s the lad’s background?" Xiao Baijiao asked Zhu Xiaoqi.
"What background? He’s just a foolish, clumsy lad."
"Then why did Dad keep him for dinner?"
Stumped by the question, Zhu Xiaoqi jokingly replied, "Maybe he’s finding you a husband?"
"Finding you a husband? Silly girl, I’ll tear your mouth apart."
"Good miss, good miss, I’m wrong, isn’t that enough? I’m wrong!"
Seeing Zhu Xiaoqi beg for rcy, Xiao Baijiao did not pursue further, but in the next mont, her smile froze, and a sorrowful look appeared in her beautiful eyes.
Having contracted this unfortunate illness, what chance does she have to marry?
Sotis, people of bitter fate are sensitive and linger on an unintended remark for a long ti.
In the main room, Xiao Zongting handed the written prescription to Duan Rong.
"You have excellent talent, and your spiritual power is probably even stronger than mine. I’ve also removed the dicine that stimulates the spirit from this prescription."
Duan Rong’s eyes shifted; his talent was exceptional, not due to strong spiritual power, but because he gained his realm directly by devouring the Artifact Spirit.
His actual spiritual power was only Level 1, how could he compare with Xiao Zongting?
The dicine to stimulate the spirit cannot be removed!
Thinking of this, Duan Rong imdiately asked, "What was the original dicine for stimulating the spirit in this prescription?"
Xiao Zongting glanced casually at Duan Rong and said casually, "Also Sugary Bloom. Half a plant."
Receiving the complete prescription, Duan Rong carefully folded it and placed it into his shirt pocket, then carried the packaged potion in his hand.
Xiao Zongting looked at Duan Rong and said, "Have dinner before you leave."
Duan Rong chuckled and said, "Then I’ll inconvenience Elder Xiao!"
The two walked out of the main room, heading to the east wing one after the other.
After dinner, Duan Rong walked out of Xiao Zongting’s courtyard sowhat in a daze.
During dinner, Duan Rong sat next to Xiao Baijiao, her body scent was like a bug, only wanting to crawl into his nose.
"Being close to beauty is truly intoxicating!..."
Duan Rong leisurely exited the Yuan Shun Escort Agency, arriving in front of the herbal shop on West Main Street.
But at this mont, the herbal shop was closed, and under the eaves lay three or four beggars sleeping, with one picking lice from clothes in the dim light filtering through the alley.
Duan Rong initially planned to get the dicine and head to the furnace for decocting.
But now it seems he can only wait till tomorrow.
Duan Rong returned to his dormitory sowhat dejected.
Placing the potion by the bedside, he glanced at the stack of books at the headboard.
He imdiately crawled over, pulled out the book ’Ancient Rhys and Miscellaneous Records’!
Looking at the book, the suppressed evil fire suddenly flared up!
He infused inner breath into his right palm and slapped the book.
"Guan Yun! Damn your fairy board!"
The ’Ancient Rhys and Miscellaneous Records’ was instantly shredded, paper bits scattered all over the bed.
Duan Rong wrapped the bedsheet and went out to wash it... Last ti he washed it too hastily without cleaning it thoroughly; there were still faint marks...
Since he had ti today, he washed himself thoroughly, even used soapwort, and washed his hair, which hadn’t been cleaned for many days.
Duan Rong, completely clean, lay on the bed and quickly slept deeply!
The next day, Duan Rong got up early and went into the herbal shop as it just opened.
According to Xiao Zongting’s prescription, he grabbed four doses of dicine in one go.
Duan Rong tied together the packages with fine hemp rope, feeling very pleased.
A dose of dicine cost thirty-four taels of silver. Far cheaper than the eighty-two tael dicine.
"Elder Xiao was right! Who writes books anyway?"
Duan Rong returned to the Yuan Shun Escort Agency, first headed to the dormitory, placed three packages of dicine at the head of the bed, and carried the last package, preparing to go to the dicine furnace room.
However, halfway through the dormitory, Duan Rong suddenly stopped.
He turned back, opened the package containing the dicine, and then opened the package with the prescription he got from Elder Xiao last night.
He took half a Sugary Bloom and placed it into this morning’s dicine package.
Only then did Duan Rong, carrying the rewrapped dicine package, joyfully head straight to the dicine furnace room...
