by Jaymes 11:58,Feb 27,2024


Mason Thornton walked along the outside of the high wall to see which house it was.

At the end of the high wall, there is a lively small street, and the area surrounding it is a medicine hall.

Jenkins Pharmacy!

A dilapidated plaque, a stone lion splashing dung on it, and a deserted pavement.

Mason Thornton was thoughtful, this place looked as if someone had smashed the door into it not long ago.

The door is ajar.

Mason Thornton pushed the door open and walked in. Things in the courtyard were smashed all over the floor, and dried medicinal materials were scattered all over the floor.

Across the courtyard is the hall of the medicine hall, which is usually a place for treating patients. At this moment, there are several warriors at the acquired third- Meridian-Unblocking Realm channel guarding the door. They are obviously not from the Jenkins Pharmacy. When they saw Mason Thornton walking in with ordinary clothes and low cultivation level, but with a normal expression, they just glanced at him lightly. They probably thought that Mason Thornton was a clerk from the medicine hall, so they did not stop him.

Mason Thornton walked into the medicine hall hall unobstructed. The hall had also been smashed by others and was simply cleaned up.

Above the hall, sitting in the main seat is a beautiful woman. She has crescent-shaped eyebrows, a sad face, a pair of watery eyes, and red and swollen bags under her eyes. She has obviously not slept for many days, and she is so haggard that it is pitiable.

In the guest seat was a middle-aged man with a big belly and the appearance of a profiteer. The beautiful woman called him Mr. Lynch.

This man has a fat head and big ears. During the conversation, he squints his eyes carefully, always glancing at the woman's figure. He looks like a little beauty. I can't stand your attitude.

Mason Thornton swaggered into the hall and glanced briefly at the people present. Seeing that no one paid attention to him, he found a seat to sit down and see what these people were talking about.

Whether it was the woman in the hall or Mr. Lynch, they saw that Mason Thornton was of low cultivation but had a calm demeanor, so they all thought he belonged to the other party and ignored him.

"Mr. Lynch, this Jenkins Pharmacy occupies an area of ​​nearly an acre and is also facing the street. You are only willing to pay 10,000 taels of silver. What is the difference between this and robbery?"

Winona Jenkins and Liu Ye frowned and sounded unhappy, but the beauty frowned, but there was a sense of heartbreak.

The eyes of Mason Thornton next to her also lit up slightly. This woman's beauty was not much worse than Liana Tayson, but her extra haggardness only made the man feel more distressed.

Mr. Lynch looked straight at him, the fat on his face trembled, and he laughed and said: "Ms. Jenkins, I am willing to pay ten thousand taels, and I have done my best to be benevolent. Do you think I don't know? Your Jenkins Pharmacy has been destroyed a long time ago. Mr. Winston of the Green Wolf Sect is interested in you, but he won’t pay you a penny. Moreover, I heard that Mr. Winston is interested in not only Jenkins Pharmacy, but also Ms. Jenkins."

When Winona Jenkins heard this, her face turned pale as if she had been stabbed in a fatal spot.

Mr. Lynch took out a silver note from his arms and said with a smile: "This is a 10,000 tael silver note issued by Imperial Money House. Ms. Jenkins, if you agree, then walk in with the silver note now and take the money with you." , go find an alchemist for your father, and maybe you can save a life. If you don't agree, then I will leave immediately. But except for me, I am afraid that no one in the entire Ravenholm will dare to snatch food from the tiger's mouth and offend Green Wolf Sect.”

Winona Jenkins bit her red lips tightly with her teeth, almost drawing blood from her bite. Jianshui's eyes were filled with resentment, and her hesitation finally turned into surrender.

Half a month ago, Mr. Winston of the Green Wolf Sect took a fancy to her Jenkins Pharmacy and wanted to buy it by force.

But this was an old house that had been the Jenkins family for thousands of years. How could her father be willing to sell it?

First, the Qinglang gang came to cause trouble and smashed her shop door.

Immediately afterwards, Mr. Winston of the Green Wolf Sect saw her beauty and became lustful, and wanted to take her as his concubine.

Five days ago, the Green Wolf Sect finally came and sent people to injure her father and force her to submit.

She was at the end of her rope, and her dying father could no longer be cured by ordinary pharmacists, so she had to ask an alchemist to save her.

She needs money badly!

Normally, even if her Jenkins Pharmacy sells for 100,000 taels, there will still be people rushing to get it.

But as Mr. Lynch said, no one dares to buy what the Green Wolf Sect likes.

"Okay, I'll sell it to..."

"Ahem, Ms. Jenkins, right? I'm willing to pay you 20,000 taels of silver."

"Uh, you are..."

"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that you are short of money and I can afford more than him."

After Mason Thornton spoke, he immediately became the focus of everyone.

Winona Jenkins looked at Mason Thornton in surprise, her watery eyes seemed to be able to speak.

"Boy, where did you come from here?"

Mr. Lynch face turned red. He had just said that no one was buying from Jenkins Pharmacy. This guy immediately doubled the price. Wasn't this a slap in the face? He squinted his eyes very gloomily, and saw that Mason Thornton was wearing ordinary clothes and had low cultivation, and his eyes gradually became evil.

"It doesn't matter where it comes from. I'm also interested in this house. You pay 10,000 yuan and I pay 20,000 yuan. Of course, the highest bidder will get it. Is it possible that you still want to be tough?"Mason Thornton looked indifferent. Don't take Mr. Lynch's threat seriously.

"Oh, I want to see how you come up with 20,000 silver?"

Mr. Lynch had a sneer on his face, and suddenly raised his hand to stop the guard behind him who was about to attack.

He saw that Mason Thornton outfit didn't cost more than two taels of silver, so how could he get 20,000 taels of silver?

I'm afraid, this person might be the one hired by Winona Jenkins.

"You...you really paid 20,000 taels of silver to buy the Jenkins Pharmacy?"Winona Jenkins saw that Mason Thornton was wearing ordinary clothes and had a low cultivation level, and her eyes were filled with suspicion.

Mason Thornton flipped his right hand, and as if by magic, the gold card Liana Tayson gave him had been taken out of the storage ring.

Before he could speak, Winona Jenkins cried out: "Is this a storage ring?"

In Caeloria, those who can own a storage ring are either rich or noble.

Twenty thousand taels of silver is a huge sum of money to many people, but to those who own a storage ring, it is really nothing.

Mr. Lynch glanced greedily at the storage ring on Mason Thornton 's right hand. Even the worst storage ring cost hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and it was still expensive but not marketable.

"I'm Samson Lynch, a member of the Li family in Bridge Valley. I can't see Mount Tai, but I wonder if I'm lucky enough to know my little brother's surname?"

Mr. Lynch concealed his greed and hostility and reported his family status.

A person who can afford to wear a storage ring has an extraordinary status. He first made some insinuations to find out the other person's origins.

"Of course you don't have the honor."

"you……"

Mr. Lynch was furious!

the Lynch family in Bridge Valley was one of the eight aristocratic families in Caeloria.

How could this young man not give him face?

But the more arrogant Mason Thornton became, the less Mr. Lynch dared to act rashly.

He is just a descendant of the Lynch family in Bridge Valley . This time he is working for a big shot in the Lynch family, snatching food from the tiger's mouth and robbing the Jenkins Pharmacy, just because there is a big treasure hidden in the Jenkins Pharmacy.

"Ms. Jenkins, come with me to the Imperial Money House, and I will withdraw money for you."

"This... this young master, there is something I want to tell you. This... this Jenkins Pharmacy, the people from the Green Wolf Sect are interested in it and want to rob it. If not, I would not sell it at such a low price. So. , you...if you buy it, you have to think about the consequences."

"I don't care whether it 'Green Wolf Sect or the Green Dog Gang. All you have to do is sell it to me, and I'll bear all the trouble."

Mason Thornton said nonchalantly.

Green Wolf Sect? The Liam Quinlan he repaired just now seems to be the Mr. Quinlan of the Green Wolf Sect .

But the expressions of Winona Jenkins and Mr. Lynch next to them changed!

Green Dog Gang?

Green Wolf Sect, one of the top ten gangs in Caeloria , how dare you call it Qingdog Gang? Do you want to die?

Winona Jenkins felt her palms getting sweaty, but this young man was so arrogant, she had already warned him and didn't want to meddle in his own business. When selling a house, of course the one with the highest price will get it. She said: "Mr. Lynch, I'm very sorry..."

"Wait a minute! Ms. Jenkins , let me be honest with you, I am here to buy the Jenkins Pharmacy on behalf of the senior management of the Bridge Valley Business Alliance . Let's do this, I will pay 20,000 taels of silver like this young man, and our Bridge Valley Business Alliance I am willing to come forward and help you contact Master Xena Lowe from Daxton Martial & Alchemy Academy to diagnose your father's condition. How about it?"

Mr. Lynch was a little anxious when he saw that Winona Jenkins was going to sell Jenkins Pharmacy to Mason Thornton.

He couldn't figure out Mason Thornton's identity, but the big shot of the Lynch family was determined to get the Jenkins Pharmacy and ordered him to take it no matter what. At least in name, the Jenkins Pharmacy belongs to their Bridge Valley Business Alliance. As for the Green Wolf Sect, we will negotiate in the future.

At first, he just wanted to force Winona Jenkins to submit at the lowest cost, but he didn't expect Mason Thornton to show up halfway.

For the Bridge Valley Business Alliance, money is a small matter, and he believes that Winona Jenkins cannot refuse the latter condition.

Sure enough, Winona Jenkins voice became excited: "Mr. Lynch, the Bridge Valley Business Alliance wants to help my father contact Master Xena Lowe. Are you serious about this?"

The alchemist is mysterious and noble, without connections or opportunities. No matter how rich you are, it is difficult to hire him.

"Of course!"Mr. Lynch agreed, but he sneered in his heart: Bridge Valley Business Alliance can help you contact Master Xena Lowe, but you must be able to pay the price. Alchemists don't care about ordinary silver. What they care about are the rare materials and treasures in the world.

"Master, I'm very sorry. My father is dying. I need to find an alchemist to treat my father."Winona Jenkins was very grateful to Mason Thornton. If it hadn't been for Mason Thornton's appearance, Mr. Lynch would not have added the following conditions.

"I happen to be an alchemist, so why do you want to stay far away? Besides, Xena Lowe's level of alchemy is only about that. Sell me the house and I'll treat your father for free."

Mason Thornton still has a good impression of the beauty in front of him. She is good-looking and has a good heart.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Mr. Lynch immediately laughed at him: "Haha! It's so funny. You said you are an alchemist? Are you really deceiving us as idiots? Boy, Master Xena Lowe's grandfather is the third and fourth grader of our Caeloria. She is one of the star alchemists, but even if she comes from a family of alchemists and is extremely talented, she still needs to be twenty-five years old to become a star alchemist. Seeing as your hair has not even grown, how dare you talk nonsense?"

Upon hearing this, Winona Jenkins felt that Mason Thornton's words were not credible.

How could there be such a young alchemist in the world?

Mason Thornton smiled and said: "Ms. Jenkins, it doesn't matter whether I am an alchemist or not. The question is whether I can cure your father's illness. Why don't you let me give it a try?"

"This...then I'm sorry for you. Mr. Lynch, please wait here for a while while I take this young man to check on my father's condition."

Winona Jenkins hesitated and agreed simply because she didn't want to offend Mason Thornton's good intentions and didn't hold any hope in her heart.

"Haha, I also want to see this young master's extraordinary medical skills!"Mr. Lynch mocked unceremoniously.
