Chapter 33

Just this morning, that Ice Crystal Grass was finally bought by the Xia Country Plant Research Institute at an astronomical price of sixty million.

After the auction ended, the headquarters of Lanzhong Auction House was flooded with phone calls, all from the deans of various national plant research institutes.

And they had only one purpose—

To inquire about the identity and background of the Medicine Farmer Star, hoping to recruit him to work at their research institute!

To figure out the identity of the Medicine Farmer Star, the CEO personally called the general manager of the Yujiang City branch.

Yet even the general manager of the Yujiang City branch did not know the identity of the Medicine Farmer Star.

But who the Medicine Farmer Star is, whether male or female, is a mystery.

Everyone guessed that the Medicine Farmer Star must be a mysterious old man or woman with incredibly rich cultivation experience.

If he could cultivate a living Ice Crystal Grass, bringing the long-extinct Ice Crystal Grass medicine material back into the world, he could certainly cultivate other precious medicinal materials.

Medicinal materials are the key to saving patients. If the Medicine Farmer Star can successfully cultivate more extinct medicinal materials, he will become a blessing for all patients tortured by illness!

Therefore, when Xu Xingguang said she was the Medicine Farmer Star, the front desk guy was deeply shocked.

Nodding, Xu Xingguang explained, "Along with the Ice Crystal Grass, a note was sent, which contained a sentence I left. I mentioned that I would deliver the membership information at five o’clock in the evening."

What Xu Xingguang said was exactly the same as the message on the note in the courier package.

The only people who knew about this were the person who signed for and checked the package’s safety in the morning, and his superior Xiahou Zuiyue, the general manager of the Lanzhong Auction House Yujiang City branch.

In fact, the guy was not a front desk receptionist, but the head secretary of Xiahou Zuiyue’s office. Knowing that the Medicine Farmer Star would deliver the information before five in the evening, he intentionally waited here for the arrival of the Medicine Farmer Star.

The front desk guy immediately extended both hands, respectfully accepting the information sheet from Xu Xingguang.

He enthusiastically extended an invitation to Xu Xingguang, "Honored guest, knowing you would come in the evening, the general manager has been anticipating your arrival for quite some time. Would you like to go upstairs with me to meet the general manager?"

This was a rare opportunity, and the front desk guy believed Xu Xingguang would seize it.

But Xu Xingguang calmly refused, "No need." She temporarily didn’t want to reveal her identity, nor did she want too much contact with the other party.

"To show my sincerity, before six o’clock tomorrow morning, I will deliver new medicinal materials to your company. In the future, I will also take care of your business from time to time, hoping we can work together happily. Additionally, please keep my identity confidential."

After saying that, Xu Xingguang left decisively, without looking back.

The success of Lanzhong Auction House in reaching such heights relied on its reputation and credibility.

Xu Xingguang trusted that the senior management of Lanzhong Auction House would not be foolish enough to offend her. After all, she is a master of medicinal materials who can easily produce the extinct top-grade material, Ice Crystal Grass.

Cooperating with her amicably, achieving mutual benefits, is the wisest choice.

Once Xu Xingguang left, the head secretary immediately took the information sheet and entered the secret elevator passage to the general manager’s office.

"Manager Xiahou, the Medicine Farmer Star has just been here. She doesn’t wish to reveal her identity and refused to meet with you. This is her membership information sheet." The head secretary placed Xu Xingguang’s information on the desk in front of Xiahou Zuiyue.

Xiahou Zuiyue was reviewing the recorded video of the Ice Crystal Grass auction, paused the video upon hearing the news, and lifted his head to reveal a feminine and handsome face.

Without saying a word, Xiahou Zuiyue took the information.

The information was sealed with a fire lacquer seal, with a star in the middle of the seal.

Xiahou Zuiyue glanced at the head secretary, prompting him to wisely exit the office.

After the head secretary left, Xiahou Zuiyue then unsealed the fire lacquer seal and took out the information sheet inside.

Upon reading through the Medicine Farmer Star’s profile information, Xiahou Zuiyue was somewhat stunned. He could hardly believe that the one who, with a single herb, stirred up a storm in the entire world of medicinal materials today, was such a young girl!

If the plant research institutes and the bigwigs in the medical world were to learn the true identity of the Medicine Farmer Star, it would surely make their eyes pop out.

He somewhat anticipated the scene when the identity of the Medicine Farmer Star was revealed in the future.

In the whole branch, only Xiahou Zuiyue had the privilege to access, browse and edit the customer database. After entering Xu Xingguang’s information into the member database, he burned the information sheet completely.

Having dealt with everything, Xiahou Zuiyue then called the head secretary back in. "Did she say anything else?"

The head secretary conveyed, without leaving out a word, what Xu Xingguang had stated before leaving.

"Are you saying she will deliver new medicinal materials tomorrow? She explicitly stated that she will frequent our auction in the future?"

"Yes." The head secretary couldn’t hide his excitement and said, "Manager Xiahou, the Medicine Farmer Star intends to establish a long-term cooperation with us!"

"Hmm." Over the years, the performance of our branch has been mediocre, while the performance of the Medicinal Material Pavilion has been overshadowed by other branches.

If the Medicine Farmer Star could truly engage in a long-term partnership with us, Yujiang City might have a chance to turn the tide.

At that point, Xiahou Zuiyue, as the branch manager, would also have the opportunity for promotion.

Xiahou Zuiyue immediately made a decision, re-entering the customer database to modify the seller privileges of the Medicine Farmer Star, changing it from a junior seller to an intermediate premium seller.

As an intermediate premium seller, the commission Xu Xingguang needed to pay to the auction each time would decrease.

This was the auction proactively extending goodwill toward her.
