Chapter 360: Chapter 75 Apart from Being Rich and Handsome, What Else Do You Have_1

Elsewhere.
Finally, the auction was over and back at the main residence of the Huangfu clan, Huangfu Jinhuan couldn’t hold back his anger any longer.
“Outrageous!! Outrageous! Well done Lei Yangyu! Well done Wang Shouzhe! If I do not avenge this humiliation, I, Huangfu Jinhuan, would rather die!!”
Furious, he kicked over a stone table in the courtyard. Still angry, he directed a punch at a stone cauldron used for training nearby.
“Bang!!”
The stone cauldron blew up into countless fragments.
The fragments scattered all around, but Huangfu Jinhuan didn’t care. He was protected by mysterious energy, and the scattered debris would be repulsed even before it could touch him.
Having shattered the stone cauldron, he was still not appeased and wanted to take it out on other objects in the courtyard.
“Oh dear~ Family Head, Family Head, please calm down, calm down.”
The startled butler hurried into the courtyard to try and restrain Huangfu Jinhuan.
However, Huangfu Jinhuan would not listen to him.
With a random flick, he pushed away the old butler and upended a decorative tree.
The butler’s face was wrinkled like a bitter gourd.
This stone cauldron, this stone table, were all custom-made, even the decorative tree was centuries-old. All together, they were worth hundreds of Qian Gold – now all wasted.
The family funds had been reallocated, and there wasn’t much money left in the account.
However, he dared not complain, nor provoke the Family Head at this time, nor let Huangfu Jinhuan vent his anger. He had to suppress his fear and advise: “Family Head, anger won’t solve the problem. You have to calm down to make those who kicked you when you were down pay, don’t you agree?”
“You’re right, they must pay.”
Hearing this, Huangfu Jinhuan, whose mind was almost filled with rage, finally cooled down a bit.
He crossed his arms behind his back and laughed coldly: “Pulling out hundreds of thousands of Qian Gold at a time just to annoy me, I want to see how he ends it. Is it that easy to run a livestock breeding business?”
“Right, right, right!” The old butler was nodding vigorously, “You’re absolutely right.”
“The breeding industry is very technologically demanding. It’s taken my Huangfu Clan hundreds of years to develop our farms to their current scale.” As Huangfu Jinhuan spoke, he grew more confident, his eyes becoming increasingly sharp, “These outsiders abruptly venturing into the breeding industry, I don’t know how much money they will lose. When the time comes, they won’t even have a place to cry.”
“Yes, yes, yes! You are absolutely right!”
…
Time flew by..
After the auction of the properties of the Ma Huangfu Clan, half a month went by in a blink of an eye, and the various uproar and discussions gradually settled.
The reputation and prestige of the Celestial Huangfu Family fell sharply in this event. They are no longer the celestial family they used to be, admired by everyone.
In contrast, the Ping’an Wang Family seized this opportunity to greatly increase their reputation. They became hot property in Changning Garrison overnight. Even the average members of the Ping’an Wang family became sought after.
There are three Danfangs in Changning Garrison.
These three Danfangs belong to three different forces, one of which is run by the Changning Xu Family.
The more a prominent family develops upward, the more people they will have, and the demand for low-tier Dan medicine will gradually increase. If all Dan medicines have to be purchased from outsiders, it can be stifled and the cost would be unbearable.
The “Little Pei Yuan Dan” alone costs ten Qian Gold each. When the amount increases, it’s still a huge expense.
Any family that intends to grow will usually train its own Alchemist.
Even if it’s just a mature Level One Pill Master, over time, they can save the family a lot of money.
The seventh elder of Ping’an Wang Family, Wang Shouye, is their first Alchemist.
He was arranged at a young age to study at the Danfang run by the Changning Xu Family under an Alchemist. Nine years have passed since then. With his hard work and family support, he has made good progress in the way of Alchemy and is now a fairly mature Level One Pill Master.
One day.
As usual, Wang Shouye went to pay his respects to his master, Xu NingChao. On this occasion, he discussed several questions that had been bothering him. Once his doubts were cleared, he went to his exclusive Dan Furnace Room in the backyard of Danfang.
This Dan Furnace Room is a standard Level One Dan Furnace Room. From its architectural design to the fuel used in the Dan Furnace, it can only be used to make Level One Dan Medicine.
The furnace in the room is burning brightly.
Seeing Wang Shouye come in, two boys who were fanning the furnace quickly stood up and saluted: “Seventh Master.”
They are the boys in charge of the furnace.
There are four of them who work in Wang Shouye’s exclusive Dan Furnace Room.
They are all 14 to 15 years old and have been carefully selected from the side branches, house servants, head of household, tenant farmers, and other systems of the Wang family. They are all smart and has a certain potential for cultivation.
They have been assisting Wang Shouye since the age of 12. After a few years of study, after learning the basic knowledge of Alchemy and the process, they can start learning Alchemy.
Wang Shouye started in the same way.
Once their skills become mature, the Ping’an Wang Family will have its own Alchemy team.
The Changning Xu Family and the Ping’an Wang Family, [who have a marriage connection], plus the considerable benefits promised by the Wang Family secretly, were able to achieve such an arrangement. Otherwise, no Danfang would train Alchemists for other clans.
