"This…"
Instantly, Wang Han choked. You really want to make Zhu Xiongying happy by any means?
He doubted his life and even wondered if Zhu Xiong had been poisoned.
Otherwise, why would he be so stupid as to use all his assets to please Zhu Xiongying?
But now, Zhu Rong clearly had no intention of explaining. He only ordered,
"Alright, let's start with the capital. I remember that all the meritorious officials have some rare treasures hidden in their homes…"
"Go door-to-door and buy it! As long as the item was good enough, he would not care about the price and buy it directly!”
"This…"
Wang Han hesitated for a moment, but when he saw Zhu Rong's determined expression, he could only sigh and leave.
The night passed quickly.
However, the next day, the people in the capital began to realize that something was wrong…
In the market, there were many mysterious people who rushed over in carriages filled with gold, silver, copper coins, and Ming Treasure Notes.
They dispersed to the various medicine shops and treasure shops.
Following that, they used a method that was close to looting to directly buy the treasures at the bottom of the stores. In an instant, the treasures of a few old and famous medicine stores and Zhen Bao Pavilion in the capital were directly swept clean.
It was noon.
The price of medicine in the entire capital had risen eight times in a row. The price of medicine had tripled from this morning!
Even so, these mysterious merchants still felt that it was not enough. They continued to move money and buy medicinal herbs in the medicinal market like they were throwing money.
As long as the herbs were good enough, they didn't seem to care about the price.
At the same time.
There were also carriages from the Zhou Estate. Their destination was the homes of various high officials and dignitaries.
One by one, the well-dressed eunuchs of the king's mansion alighted from the carriage and entered the mansion. After a while, they were sent out by the main family with a bitter smile on their faces.
However, when these eunuchs came out, they had many rare treasures in their hands. They smiled and said goodbye to the main family before walking away.
Kong left the main family behind. He looked at the carriage full of gold and silver, his face filled with confusion.
This buying storm instantly spread, affecting many medicinal shops in the capital and even outside the capital...
At the same time.
At the Grand Sun Manor.
Within Pengzu Grotto-heaven.
Zhu Xiong Ying looked at the pills in the furnace and revealed a satisfied expression."Not bad, not bad. The quality is much better this time!”
With the help of Yao Yue and Lian Xing, his progress was much faster. In the past two days, he had refined more than ten Foundation Building Pills.
It was just a pity that the quality of these foundation establishment pills was very ordinary.
Although it could also achieve the effect of Foundation Establishment, the effect was ordinary and would lower the upper limit of the user's future.
"I should be able to refine another two or three batches…"
Zhu Xiong Ying calculated his own progress. From the moment he started to now, he had only used two to three days to be able to skillfully use alchemy.
If this continued, he would only need two days to refine a perfect foundation establishment pill.
Unfortunately, the spiritual plants in the grotto-heaven were not enough…
Thinking of this, Zhu Xiongying looked at the young purple ginseng beside him with some regret.
This was the lowest grade spirit plant in the grotto-heaven, and also the main ingredient for refining the foundation establishment pill.
However, because this Sage Herb was too low-grade, he had not planted many in his Paradise. Now, he had already used up all of them.
He had to wait for the Sage Herb to mature before he could refine it again…
Fortunately, the spiritual energy in the grotto-heaven was rich. The Sage Herb would be ready to be used after half a month.
Zhu Xiong Ying wasn't in a hurry. With a thought, he left the grotto-heaven.
After returning to the quiet room, he walked out of the small courtyard and went to the medicine warehouse, preparing to take stock of the medicinal herbs that he would use next.
However, the moment he entered, he found Zhu Biao looking at the account book with a sad face.
"Hmm? Xiong Ying is here?" Zhu Biao forced a smile when he saw Zhu Xiongying.
"What's wrong with you? Did my mother beat you up again?" Zhu Xiongying asked curiously.
"What are you talking about? Your father is a man, how could he be beaten up by your mother!”Zhu Biao's face darkened.
Zhu Xiong Ying nodded in understanding and reminded him,"Please be quiet. Be careful not to let my mother hear.”
"What's wrong with letting her hear it? I'm the head of the family!”
Zhu Biao spoke very firmly, but when he spoke, his eyes glanced outside. When he saw that his wife wasn't here, he became much more firm.
"I understand, I understand. Why are you not afraid of my mother?”Zhu Xiongying nodded in agreement.
"It's all because of the medicinal herbs…"
"I don't know what's going on, but the price of medicinal herbs on the market has doubled today." Zhu Biao said with some worry.”
"I originally wanted to go and buy medicinal herbs, but now it seems that I don't have enough money…"
At this point, he felt a little ashamed.
His son was working hard to refine immortal pills for his family.
However, he couldn't even provide medicinal herbs!
As a father, he was simply unworthy of Xiong Ying's efforts.
Zhu Xiongying was curious." It can't be, right? You're already so thrifty, and you still don't have enough money?"”
One had to know that Zhu Biao spent every penny in half. He had saved a lot of money over the years.
Even he, the crown prince, felt that the herbs were too expensive and couldn't afford them?
What was going on?
Zhu Biao said with some bad luck,"I don't know what's going on either. The price of medicinal herbs on the market has risen like crazy today. I heard that some wealthy merchants are buying them with large sums of money. As long as they are rare medicinal herbs, they don't care about the price at all and buy all of them.”
"It's not just a matter of money now. All the rare medicinal herbs on the market are basically gone. You can't buy them even if you have money…"
"There's such a big dog?"
Zhu Xiong Ying couldn't understand. Even with the Eastern Palace's wealth, buying all the rare herbs on the market would cost them their entire fortune.
There was actually someone so rich in the Ming Dynasty?
Moreover, he was such a sucker. Why would he buy it at such a high price?
He seemed to be seriously ill.
