My stockpiles found each other's presence

It was late at night when Minglai and Yi Zecheng returned home. Seeing two people get off the aircraft, the butler Esmo finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Master, Master Minglai, welcome home."

Yi Zecheng nodded and ordered: "Let's prepare dinner."

"Yes." Esmo said respectfully from the side: "I know that you and Master Minglai will come back today. The kitchen has been prepared in advance, and you can eat now."

In the dining room, Ming Lai opened the dining chair and sat down, raised his eyes to the opposite side, and asked, "How many brothers haven't come home?"

Yi Zecheng closed his eyes, his handsome face couldn't hide the tiredness between his brows, and even his voice was a little hoarse, but he said, "It hasn't been long, is there anything you don't feel comfortable with in the academy?"

"Since you moved to the dormitory of the college, this is the first time for the young master to walk out of the gate of the institute." Esmo said mercilessly: "It was the same before you came, the young master lived in the institute day and night. Work, don’t be sleepy to the extreme and won’t rest. After you moved in, the house became a little popular, and the young master condescended to go back home to sleep, and now that you’re gone, it’s natural to return to your original shape.”

Yi Zecheng rubbed the center of his brows, and reprimanded in a low voice: "Enough, Asmo."

Esmo bent down, respectfully: "Sorry, I overstepped."

"It's okay, grandpa housekeeper." Minglai smiled and said, "I will move to the research institute tomorrow, and I will supervise my brother's schedule and working hours."

He didn't willfully propose to live with his brother at home, and moved to the research institute on his own initiative, which not only respected his brother's serious attitude towards work, but also showed how much he cared about the body of the grain reserve.

Of course, Yi Zecheng could see the anger hidden in the little guy's sweet smile, he gave a "tsk" and tapped on the dining table with his fingers: "Be good, little troublemaker, don't mess around."

Minglai pursed his lips, and was so shocked by the food reserves, his expression immediately fell down. He lowered his eyes slightly, his thin eyelashes cast a shadow on his eyelids, his hands were resting on his legs, and his voice was very soft, as Being blown away by the wind: "I know my brother is tired of me, it's just me being passionate..."

"Stop, take it back." Yi Zecheng interrupted immediately, he didn't need to think about what he would see next, the veins on his forehead twitched, but there was nothing he could do about this brat, in the end he could only be irritable With a wave of his hand: "I will arrange the time reasonably, and I will pick you up as soon as the experiment is over. Don't let me hear what you say..."

"Brother, I was wrong!" Minglai interrupted him, his eyes sparkled, and there was no trace of sadness: "I will never think about it in the future."

Yi Zecheng: "...um."

Esmo looked at his young master who was pretending to be fierce but had no deterrent effect, and because of the young man's words, he immediately failed, and he didn't have the usual tyrant style.

Ming Xiaoyao, who was living in Yi Ze City, took advantage of the opportunity to change seats and went to him, and while sucking on the food reserves, he sighed happily: "Brother, we haven't had dinner together like this for a long time!"

He has stockpiled food reserves for half a month!

Yi Zecheng didn't answer the question, the man looked at his cheek with dark phoenix eyes, raised his hand under the young man's puzzled eyes and wiped the tear stains at the corner of his eyes heavily, the traces had already dried out, obviously they had stayed on it For a long time, if it wasn't for close observation, it would be impossible to detect it, let alone know what happened to the boy before.

He couldn't bear to refuse even the boy's fake cry, and he had to control the volume when he reprimanded him, but someone insulted his younger brother behind his back, a trace of cruelty flashed in Yi Zecheng's eyes, and his voice sank, cold and depressed: "He bullied you?"

This him, obviously can only be Yuan Jingzhou.

On the contrary, he underestimated the other party, thinking that the other party would not dare to take the risk of contract backlash easily to touch the bottom line, and stupidly let the other party take advantage of it, but he did not expect this man to be so insane.

Minglai was stunned for a moment, looking at Yi Zecheng who was exuding the hostility of choosing someone and devouring him, and then thinking of the other party's actions just now, he suddenly realized, and then he couldn't laugh or cry.He never expected that Yuan Jingzhou would be blamed for this matter in the end.

However, in order to prevent the two grain reserves from harming each other, he quickly grabbed each other and explained: "That's not the case, brother, you are wrong. I encountered some difficulties during the experiment today, and it's only because of anxiety... "

When he said this, his face flushed slightly, and he said in a low voice, "Brother, you won't dislike me, right?"

This time he didn't pretend, he was really embarrassed to the point of blushing, this was different from the fake crying when he started the drama mode, every time he entered the white lotus state, he felt that a new personality was ruling him, the master personality Still watching the showman's personality perform in my mind, it's all for art, there is nothing to be ashamed of.

But this time, when he encountered a bottleneck, he was so angry that his eyes were red and covered with water vapor, and he actually squeezed out a drop, which was so girlish that it was unacceptable!

Yi Zecheng didn't know that the boy's heart had turned 180 turns in an instant. He was slightly taken aback, seeing the other person's embarrassing look, who was honest and honest, he couldn't help slowing down the doubts in his heart, and asked further questions. Said: "What kind of problem actually makes you...cough."

When this question was mentioned, Minglai suddenly raised his head, and asked with a bit of urgency and anticipation: "Brother, do you know of any plants whose medicinal effects are similar to ice water flowers, but whose medicinal properties are more gentle?"

"Bingshuihua, do you think you are making potions related to dreams?" Yi Zecheng's senses are very keen, but seeing that the young man is unwilling to speak directly, he has not persistently explored to the end. In his opinion, Ming Lai probably wants to concoct it. Some low-level potions, similar to sleepwalking potions, reported a long list without hesitation: "Green fruit, pine tree, asparagus, mountain agarwood, leafless flower, and red Buddha lotus are all acceptable."

Ming Lai tried hard to write it down, but he felt very strange when he heard the last one: "What is Red Buddha Lotus?"

Grumpy Godzilla was extra patient when facing his own little white lotus. He raised his hand to turn on the optical brain, searched for a picture of the red lotus, and projected it into the air into Minglai's sight.

The shape of the lotus looks like a lifelike bergamot, but the color is crimson all over.

"Red Buddha lotus is a variant of Bergamot lotus, but it is so rare that it can be said to be rare in a hundred years. It is usually used to make some high-level potions, and it is priceless in the market." He briefly introduced a few sentences, and then continued Glancing at the latest news about Red Buddha Lotus, he said to the housekeeper, "There just happens to be a plant at the auction of the Pharmacy Institute, Esmo, go and get it."

"No need, brother, I'll go and see for myself." Minglai's eyes lit up, and he said hastily, "I want to see it, just to see if there are any other herbs that need to be used."

Yi Zecheng indulged his younger brother without any bottom line: "Aismo, pay attention to Minglai's personal safety."

……

Encouraged by his elder brother (the aura on his body), Ming Lai regained his strength. He summed up the lessons of failure and learned from his experience. He prepared to go to the auction to collect all the plants and herbs needed according to the list listed by Yi Ze City, and continued to experiment with perseverance.

However, what Ming Lai didn't expect was that as soon as he got off the aircraft, he would meet two acquaintances as soon as he got off the auction.

"Ming Lai!" Zhou Zhi walked towards him excitedly: "Long time no see, you also came here for the legendary red Buddha lotus, right?"

Bai Shulan followed behind, listening to his exaggerated adjectives, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, they were clearly in the same classroom the day before yesterday, how could it be "long time" not seeing each other?

But thinking about it, he couldn't help but look in Minglai's direction, and saw the young man standing alone, and couldn't help frowning slightly: "Why did you come here alone, did the Yi family not arrange anyone to accompany you? There is a mix of fish and dragons here, especially this time the bergamot lotus has caused a great sensation, it is very dangerous for a student to be alone, you know?"

Like an old father who has broken his heart, Bai Shulan completely forgot the exaggeration he complained about Zhou Zhi in his heart just now, and even complained that the Yi family didn't pay much attention to the young man, and then told him in every detail: "Okay, let's go in together Right. If you need something in the future, you can ask Brother Bai to accompany you, but you must never be alone, you know?"

Hey, this little white lotus is so innocent that people can't help worrying about it.

Bai Shulan said that he had to find a reason by himself.

Zhou Zhi nodded again and again, agreeing very much.

Of course, Minglai would not say that he dismissed the butler for the sake of convenience, and did not let the other party follow him at all, so he simply acted like a fool and followed the other party in.

During this journey, Zhou Zhi completely acted as a narrator. Not only did he explain in detail the legendary story of the origin and efficacy of the red Buddha lotus, but even the bidding prices that appeared in the auctions several times before were very rare, which is simply a standard. encyclopedia.

He said he was thirsty, and after drinking a glass of drink, he looked at the young man, and saw that Minglai was looking through the upcoming auction list with great interest, and asked curiously: "Minglai, do you have any other herbs that you want to see?" ?”

"Yes." Minglai raised his head: "There are many herbs here that I have never seen before, um... not only herbs, but also some very miraculous potions."

"Actually, there are also special medicinal herbs planted in the college. We can visit them when we have time."

"Okay." Minglai agreed simply, without any hesitation, completely like a good student who is constantly absorbing new knowledge.

The auction started, and the topic gradually revolved around the red Buddha lotus at the finale, Zhou Zhi pointed to the box around, and sighed: "The charm of the red Buddha lotus is so great, almost all the medicine families from the sixth galaxy have come , Shulan, I saw your box!"

Bai Shulan was not surprised: "It should be my second uncle who came. After all, it is Bergamot lotus, which is extremely rare and rare in a hundred years. Its medicinal effects are very wide. Known as the top-grade medicament lubricant, it greatly increases the probability of success in the test.

The most important thing is that if one can get the red Buddha lotus, there is a certain possibility to develop a new high-level medicine formula, and then one step will surely reach the sky, no one can resist such a temptation.The big families and even the pharmacy masters present are not here to see the beauty of the Red Buddha Lotus, they are here to compete, and they are bound to win."

Ming Lai was surprised: "Is it so powerful?" In contrast, he needed Red Buddha Lotus just to make a successful dream-realizing potion, and the purpose was much simpler.

"Of course." Bai Shulan glanced at Ming Lai and said, "If you are not the only one who can prepare your petrochemical agent, once the formula is handed over, its contribution is enough to confer a title."

Of course, even if only Ming Lai can make it himself, the empire is very optimistic about him, and Yuan Jingzhou's training is enough to represent the attitude of the empire.

Therefore, some people are simply the sons of God. No matter how stupid or innocent they are, they are blessed by good luck. Ming Lai's good luck is simply unique in the entire galaxy. Even Bai Shulan, who was born in an aristocratic family, couldn't help feeling jealous.

But the more he came into contact with the other party, Bai Shulan became more and more powerless. He even found that not only was he not Xiao Bailian's opponent, but he seemed to be conquered by the other party! !

At this moment, Zhou Zhi exclaimed: "The finale is coming!"

Everyone looked up and saw that this moment was definitely the one that attracted the attention of all. The attention of the entire auction, whether it was the guests or the staff, was all on the finale, without exception.

The red Buddha lotus was placed in a special temperature box to ensure normal growth. A staff member carefully delivered it to the scene, and there were several high-level supernatural beings waiting to follow behind to ensure its safety.

Putting his hands on the black cloth, the auctioneer first explained the origin and efficacy of the red Buddha lotus. Opening the black cloth reveals the true face of the red Buddha lotus.

Minglai took a closer look, and before he had time to admire, his expression suddenly became weird, and at the same time, the audience was in an uproar.

Different from the photos of the red Buddha lotus they saw on the star network, the real thing in front of them has no legendary charm at all, not to mention the strange light and Buddha-nature shape, this is clearly... a pussy just grew, and even A small grass that cannot reach the height of a fingernail!

This is Red Buddha Lotus?

Are you kidding me? ? ? ?

"Everyone, please calm down!" The auctioneer cleared his throat and raised his hand to signal everyone to calm down. He used a special potion, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he suppressed the restlessness of the audience loudly, and explained: "This is indeed a 200-year-old auction." Red Buddha Lotus, but it was frightened during the transportation and it instantly changed back to its original shape, I believe all pharmacy masters can understand this point."

Minglai: "...is there still such an operation?"

Bai Shulan, who can be regarded as an encyclopedia in the field of medicine, explained: "As he said, although Red Buddha Lotus looks domineering in appearance, its personality is known as sunfish in the medicinal herb world. The glass heart of sunfish is easily frightened. He often scares himself to death, and Hongfolian can't stand the slightest stimulation either. As long as he feels danger, he will be beaten back to his original shape immediately to save his life, which is called playing dead for short.

But this kind of behavior will not last for too long. Once he feels safe, he will slowly return to normal. "

Minglai was shocked: "Is the red Buddha lotus alive and thinking?" If so, wouldn't it be considered a monster clan?

Bai Shulan: "All high-level medicinal herbs have intelligence, but they are not human intelligence. Compared with before, their thinking is more like kittens and puppies."

The auctioneer gave the public time to digest, and then continued: "We can guarantee the authenticity of the red Buddha lotus. We all know that it has a strange fragrance. The fragrance is long and special, and it can resonate with plants. Please take a look."

He opened the incubator, and a strange fragrance quietly permeated the audience, and all the plants on the field, whether medicinal herbs or flowers, trembled slightly, as if reflecting each other with the red Buddha lotus!

This picture perfectly confirmed the authenticity of the red Buddha lotus. Coupled with the auction's efforts to guarantee it, doubts gradually receded. Everyone in the hall was discussing with each other, and the bosses in the box were also hurrying to discuss.

"It's amazing, is this the Red Buddha Lotus!" Zhou Zhi exclaimed, looking at the inconspicuous grass on the field with fascination, but he had already imagined his demeanor after growing up in his mind.

Bai Shulan is also constantly recording some data that only he can understand, his mouth is plausible, and his eyes are becoming more and more fanatical.

At this time, no one noticed that Minglai's face was weird for a moment. He grabbed the sofa chair with one hand, lowered his head and quietly felt the aftertaste of his heart beating violently.Just now, when the strange fragrance wafted out and entered the tip of the nose, not only the plants under the field resonated, Ming Xiaoyao was shocked to find that he had also resonated, if not for the conditions, he wanted to jump down to say hello to the other party .

what's the situation!

Isn't it only plants that resonate?He is a human being... Ah, not a monster, even if he is a monster, his body is still a beast, so why does he resonate with plants? !

Ming Xiaoyao was shocked by this miraculous operation.

At this moment, the auctioneer on the field sold enough and finally announced: "The auction of the Red Buddha Lotus has begun, and the starting price is 3000 million star coins!"

3000 million star coins!

This number was so exaggerated that it made people scream, but it also pushed the atmosphere of the audience to a climax.

But 3000 million is just a starting price, and the next auction will be exaggerated to the extreme with everyone raising their hands every time.

[-] million star coins!

Three hundred million star coins!

[-] million star coins!

One billion star coins!

……

30 billion star coins!

50 billion!

Crazy, really crazy!

From the starting price to now, Red Buddha Lotus has increased fifty times!

"It's too cruel..." Zhou Zhi murmured to himself, "That's just a herb, 50 billion to buy a herb, what kind of concept is that?"

The competition is very fierce, like the blades and swords, it is dizzying and the atmosphere is getting more and more intense. Bai Shulan can only feel his heart beating: "Exaggeration, but it is also reasonable. At this point, there are no masters of pharmacy and small families who have backstage. They have all withdrawn from the competition, and those who remain on the stage are those rich nobles!"

"50 million once!"

Someone raised their hand again.

"60 million once!"

Some people still raised their hands unwillingly.

"70 million once!"

"It's 70 billion, it's already reached the limit..."

"Almost, 70 billion. If this herb can really develop a precious high-level formula, then the income in return will be more than doubled! But if you lose, you will be considered a big noble, and you will lose money to the end! Use it up."

Just when everyone thought that 70 was a foregone conclusion, a hand that had never appeared before was raised up. The wrist was too slender to hold, and the skin was as white as suet jade. These hands were not too big, even a little small, but The sign he raised pushed the atmosphere of the audience to the climax.

"100 million once!"

"Ahhh, are you crazy, who can do such a thing, 100 billion??"

"Oh my god, what is the concept of 100 billion, that is the value of a mine star that can generate endless wealth!"

This is insane, no doubt about it.

Zhou Zhi and Bai Shulan were the ones who suffered the most mentally, because they saw with their own eyes that the person holding the sign was right beside them, and they still looked innocent as if they didn't know what happened.

"Minglai...? Are you holding the wrong sign?"

"No." Minglai smiled shyly, and said rather shyly, "I like that red Buddha lotus plant very much, so I took a picture of it." Buy it back and study it carefully to find out what kind of little fairy can cause him resonance.

Zhou Zhi looked at him blankly, and the words echoed in his ears: I like it... just take it... just take it... just take it!

That's 100 billion, not 100 million. Where the hell did you get so much money to move the Yi family out?

The auctioneer was shouting excitedly: "One time for 100 billion!", "Twice for 100 billion!", "Three times for 100 billion!", "Deal!"

During the whole process, he could only be heard yelling, other than that there was no movement at all, until the phrase "deal" sounded, which caused a huge commotion in the audience, which turned out to be true! !

100 billion to buy a herb!

Really!

Zhou Zhi looked at him with a dull face, and asked softly as if sleepwalking: "Minglai, where did you get so much money...?"

Minglai shook his head sadly, and replied with a downcast expression: "I have no money, I'm very poor, and I'll be bankrupt after buying Red Buddha Lotus...I can't afford the rest."

Half of Mu Jiuming's property, he put two-thirds into Yi's experiment, and the remaining third, half was used to compensate for the pharmacy that he bombed every day, and the remaining half was used Come to buy Red Buddha Lotus.

I wanted to buy asparagus and leafless flowers, but now I really have no money.

Ming Xiaoyao sighed deeply melancholy, he is so poor now!

The pressure is so great, if you don't want to work hard to make money, Lai Lai will soon have no money to blow up the pharmacy!
