Good heavens! Who will explain to him if he’s too ignorant or the world too crazy?
“It’s over… all over… Now it’s all over!” Hu Yihai mumbled to himself and squatted down, holding his head.
A Superior Medicine Refiner, his uncle had actually advanced to become a Superior Medicine Refiner! This should have been a cause for celebration, but now for him, it felt like a bolt out of the blue!
“Our Liuzhou Medical Guild is doomed!” Hu Yihai wept bitterly, tears and snot flowing…
“Father, don’t lose heart just yet. I just saw Lady Changsheng asserting with utter confidence, she didn’t seem to be faking, we might still have a chance!” Upon seeing this, Hu Tiandong quickly helped his father up with the others.
“What’s the use of asserting with confidence? What’s the use of making solemn vows? Jiangnan has always been a place where talents emerge, and in sixty years, a whole sixty years, we have only seen a Hu Bingzhi. Do you think Superior Medicine Refiners are like cabbages? That they can be grown in batches? Let alone batches, even this one has stirred up huge waves in the world of medicine. It’s over, now it’s really over…”
Compared to Hu Yihai’s despair, the faces of the others didn’t look much better.
Having spotted this scene, Jiao Fangyi left the crowd that was congratulating him and strode over with a manner full of self-satisfaction, his face brimming with pride. He taunted, “What’s the matter, willing to admit defeat now? A bunch of clowns hanging from the beam, daring to bounce in front of me, what now, you lost, haven’t you? You’re satisfied with this outcome, right? The Silver Tael you’ll need to beg for medicine at ten times the price for the next five years should keep you up at night, tsk tsk…”
“Jiao Fangyi, don’t get too cocky! Our Liuzhou Medical Guild won’t admit defeat!” Hu Tiandong couldn’t take such mockery and leapt up, his face turning crimson with anger.
“Tsk tsk… Not admitting defeat? We’ve got a Superior Medicine Refiner on our side. Do you even know what that means? It means unlimited access to medicinal materials, it means pharmacists will have to follow his lead, it means securing his support will mark the rise of a pharmacy. Young man, if you don’t understand the value of a Superior Medicine Refiner, then stop stubbornly resisting.” Jiao Fangyi rolled his eyes at Hu Tiandong with a scornful laugh on his face.
“Pah! So what if he’s a Superior Medicine Refiner? Lady Changsheng hasn’t left the processing courtyard yet; the outcome is still uncertain!” Hu Tiandong retorted, not willing to concede a single point.
“Oh, unbelievable, a Superior Medicine Refiner isn’t much? You must have never seen pork or even a pig walking! I’ll tell you this, even if Gu Changsheng leaves the processing courtyard, she can’t hope to beat Imperial Doctor Hu. A Superior Medicine Refiner isn’t much, you say? If you’re so capable, bring out a Top-grade Alchemy Master then!” Jiao Fangyi laughed loudly as he spoke, drawing the attention of many. Soon, everyone was laughing along with him.
A Top-grade Alchemy Master? If it’s already a once-in-a-century event to see a Superior Medicine Refiner, with only a few beyond the major pharmacist families, then that makes a Top-grade Alchemy Master a legendary figure – throughout history, only a handful have been able to produce top-grade medicinal materials.
The Yellow Emperor counts as one, Shennong counts as one, the Medicine King Sun Family counts as one…
As a doctor, as a pharmacist, to witness top-grade medicinal materials in one’s lifetime is to die without regrets!
Unfortunately, dying without regrets isn’t so easy!
A Top-grade Alchemy Master, that’s just a legend!
Hu Tiandong obviously knew this as well, and for a moment, his face turned the color of liver, finding himself at a loss for words!
“Alright, lad, I can’t be bothered to bicker with you. Come on, gentlemen, today Imperial Doctor Hu of the Taizhou Medical Guild has successfully advanced to become a Superior Medicine Refiner, so I have booked the Lansheng Building. If you are free, please join me for a little toast to celebrate!” Jiao Fangyi said this while respectfully inviting Hu Bingzhi and ushering the others along.
No one was going to turn down such an opportunity and they all eagerly agreed, filing out one after another.
“Hu Yihai, a million taels of medicinal Silver Tael, that should keep you worried for years, I won’t disturb you gathering it.” Jiao Fangyi said this deliberately slowing his pace when passing by Hu Yihai, his eyes filled with disdainful mockery.
At that moment, what more could Hu Yihai do? He stood there devoid of spirit, like a walking corpse.
On one hand, Jiao Fangyi led the crowd through the streets, celebrating ostentatiously, while on the other, the members of the Liuzhou Medical Guild were all filled with gloom, lamenting incessantly.
“What are they so proud of! Is a Superior Medicine Refiner something to spread all over town?” Yuan Bao muttered resentfully, fixing his disheveled clothes and unable to help cursing at the backs of the people leaving.

Turning around, he saw only a group of Liuzhou Medical Guild members left in the hall, their energy completely drained.
“Hey, old man, what’s wrong with them?” Yuan Bao approached the only outsider left in the hall, Elder Yhan, and cautiously asked.
“They think they’ve already lost the competition and are currently worrying about it.” Elder Yhan stroked his gray whiskers and responded with a smile.
“What! With Lady Changsheng in the game, there’s no way they could lose, these people are really worrying needlessly!” Yuan Bao exclaimed indignantly upon hearing this!
With Lady Changsheng participating in the contest, how could someone like her lose?
Ridiculous!
“I believe the same!” Elder Yhan nodded seriously, “Every era has its talents that emerge. That Hu Bingzhi, indeed, is quite remarkable.”
“Hey! I’m telling you, old man, support Lady Changsheng if you’re going to support her, don’t play both sides to catch the wind! You can’t thoughtlessly try to gain from both!” After saying that, Yuan Bao huffed and walked toward the backyard, shouting as he went, “Lady Changsheng, our master has urgently sent fresh Wenchang Fish all the way from Southern Fujian, still lively and kicking, Lady Changsheng…”
Following the direction of his voice, people saw two Little Eunuchs carrying a large bucket behind him, and truly, the Wenchang Fish inside the bucket were lively, brimming with energy…
