"Sir, you are?"

Looking at Jiang Changqiu's arrogant appearance, the medicine hall attendant was slightly taken aback.

Within the Hundred Ocean Medicine Hall, which was opened by a large clan, the highest ranking person was not the shopkeeper, but the head sent by the clan who was responsible for prosecuting the quality of the medicinal ingredients.

These masters were all famous medical officials, and their words carried a much higher weight than the shopkeeper's.

"I am Jiang Changqiu." Jiang Changqiu said proudly as he held onto his long beard.

"Sure, please wait a moment."

Even though the Hall of Medicine attendant was doubtful, upon seeing the other party's extraordinary bearing, he decided to head to the rear courtyard to look for the head master of the Medicine Hall.

Seeing this, Ye Qing and Xiao Kun found a place to sit and drank the hot tea offered by the other attendants.

Not long after, the sound of footsteps could be heard. An old medical officer with a head full of white hair and a beard, over sixty years old, walked out from the backyard.

"Aiyaya, I didn't expect you to be here personally, Grandmaster Jiang." Why didn't you tell our Patriarch that you were here? "I've really been slow with you." The old medical officer quickly stepped forward and respectfully greeted him.

Seeing the bewildered gazes of everyone in the medicine hall, Jiang Changqiu smiled complacently.

He might be unknown in Jiangnan, but in the Xiangzhou region, he could be counted on one hand. Countless officials and dignitaries rushed to respect him as a distinguished guest.

In the next moment, when he saw Ye Qing's faint smile, Jiang Changqiu, who was very proud of himself for not even a few seconds, shuddered and hurriedly asked about his business.

"Er, this Ye …" Little brother, you want to buy some precious medicinal materials that are old and precious, do you still have them? "

"This …" The old medical officer hesitated for a moment before a difficult expression appeared on his face.

Afterwards, he sighed: "To tell you the truth, master, there's an important person from outside the city who cleaned up all the medicine stores in the large medicine halls of Hengyang City. "Right now, let's not talk about precious herbs that are more than a hundred years old. There are not even many thirty years old herbs here."

"Oh? Who is this esteemed individual, to actually have such a large sum of money? " Jiang Changqiu asked doubtfully.

Hundred years old medicines, especially those precious medicines, were not like the white rice on the streets that could be weighed by a single jin. They were all extremely minute by minute, and were measured bit by bit.

A hundred year old precious medicine the size of a fingernail would cost several hundred silver taels.

And an entire 100 year old precious medicine was casually worth hundreds of thousands or even millions of silver!

In such a big city like Hengyang City, every large medicine hall had more or less a few hundred years worth of precious medicines as the treasure of the store, but now that everyone had been swept clean, just how much money would it cost?

"Grandmaster Jiang, it is said that the noble man came from Qiongzhou, the Southern Sea. He seems to be the princess of Qiongzhou. And why she bought so much, we don't know. " The old medical officer shook his head.

When Ye Qing heard this, he could not help but be stunned.

Another princess of Qiongzhou?

Master Jiang, on the other hand, couldn't help but cry out inwardly when he heard that there was no medicine for sale.

Yesterday in Yin Pond County, he personally told Master Ye that there were good medicines for sale!

Yet now he had rushed over to Hengyang County in the middle of the night and actually told him that there were no more medicinal ingredients? Do you know that there will be deaths!?

He secretly glanced at Ye Qing and saw that Ye Qing's brows were slightly wrinkled. His heart immediately broke out in cold sweat as he hurriedly asked the old Chinese medical doctor, "Could it be that in such a large city like Hengyang City, there isn't even a single portion of ancient medicinal ingredients left?!"

"What I wanted to say... Of course there are. " The old Chinese doctor hesitated for a moment before asking, "Master Jiang, have you ever heard of the Amazing Medicine Auction?"

"Are you talking about that legendary auction where all sorts of celebrities gather?" Jiang Changqiu asked doubtfully.
