Chapter 21 Cooperation
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Ya Fei's hands began to tremble, and Gu Ni's eyelids were twitching wildly. A Qi Gathering Powder and two Xuan-level fighting skills were worth about one million gold coins.

After a while, as if after a mental struggle, Ya Fei said with a wry smile:
"Okay, you win. Yafei will listen to you from now on and will not provide any more medicinal herbs to the Jialie family."

"Ms. Yafei will understand in the future that this is the smartest choice you have ever made in your life."

"I also believe that you won't let me down."

After so many years of experience in the auction house, Ya Fei still has a good eye. But this fighting skill and elixir worth one million gold coins is more of a guarantee.

The courage that Xiao Chen showed in front of her made Yafei feel that no one would be able to match this person in the future.

Yafei was very willing to make this investment.

Besides, even if she was wrong, the only loss would be the business dealings of the Gale family.

But one million gold coins were more than enough to buy out the value of the Gale family.

She won't lose money on this business.

When Xiao Chen left, Yafei and Gu Ni personally sent him to the door downstairs.

This surprised the Xiao family guards who were waiting in the hall.

When did the Xiao family become so powerful?
Even when the clan leader came, he had to go in and out on his own. Not to mention that Ya Fei came to see him off personally, even the manager didn't come out.

……

After Xiao Chen left.

"Teacher Gu Ni, who is he? Is he also an alchemist?" Ya Fei asked after watching Xiao Chen disappear.

"I don't know. I can't tell." Gu Ni shook his head, then frowned and said in confusion: "Xiao Chen is also a newcomer in the Xiao family. Who taught him?"

"Do we need to investigate his background in detail?" Ya Fei asked softly.

Gu Ni narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment, and shook his head slightly: "I'm afraid we can't find out anything. We can let our spies in the Xiao family pay more attention to him, but we must not attract his attention, otherwise, I'm afraid it will be very troublesome."

After saying that, Gu Ni looked at Ya Fei and said:

"You'd better find an opportunity to get closer to him."

Yafei blushed and said nothing.

Another force in Wutan City.

Compared to the Xiao family's joy, the Galie family was in a gloomy mood. Due to their excessive profits some time ago, they aroused the disgust of most mercenaries. Moreover, the blood coagulation powder of the Xiao family was much more effective than the rejuvenation powder, and it was also cheaper.

Therefore, the healing medicine of the Jialie family is definitely not as good as that of the Xiao family.

If I continue to be suppressed by the Xiao family like this, it won’t be long before I can’t even drink soup.

Fortunately, the Jialie family is wealthy. Although their healing medicine is not as good as that of the Xiao family, they have pharmacists. As long as they have enough medicinal materials, they can quickly refine another kind of elixir.

But this morning, as the largest resource supplier in Wutan City, Mittel Auction House has raised the price of medicinal materials by 30%.

The top leaders of the Gale family were gnashing their teeth at the price increase at this special time.

But no matter how angry they were, there was nothing they could do.

After all, making money from war is a lucrative business, and it would be strange if Mittel Auction House would miss this opportunity.

Moreover, the backer of the Mitel Auction House is also a powerful force ranked among the top in the entire Gama Empire. He is a small family in Wutan City and does not have the ability to provoke it.

At this moment, a tribesman ran in hurriedly and said in panic:

"Chief, this is bad. Miter Auction House just sent someone to inform us that they will no longer cooperate with us.

"what?"

Everyone in the hall was shocked when they heard this. They all looked at each other in horror. Jialebi was even more furious. He crushed the two walnuts in his hand. "Damn Yafei! Bitch!!!"

"Why is Yafei like this? Why is Miter Auction House like this? Haven't they always remained neutral?" Galleo said anxiously.

"Humph, with enough benefits, how can anyone remain neutral all the time? This must be the work of the Xiao family. I wonder what conditions Xiao Zhan used to impress that little bitch Ya Fei."

"Then what should we do now? Without enough medicinal materials, we won't be able to sell the rejuvenation powder next time." Galekku on the side was a little anxious.

"Don't panic yet." Raising his hand, Galbi continued grimly, "There are still many herbal medicine shops standing on our side. Send people to collect the herbs they have immediately and try to hold on for a while."

After saying that, Jialebi looked at Liu Xi who was still flirting with the maid in the hall:

"Brother Liu Xi, your Rejuvenation Powder is no longer effective against the Xiao family. Is there any other solution?"

"Don't worry, Chief Jialie. I have some pills that can be refined without the herbs from the Miter Auction House." After saying that, Liu Xi threw a scroll to Jialiebi.

"Rescuing ointment?"

"Yes, the effect of Huitian ointment is more popular, and the medicinal materials can be bought outside the city."

Jialebi rolled up the scroll in his hand, and without hesitation, he immediately said to Jialenu, who had been sitting next to him without saying a word, "Second Elder, I can only leave the matter of buying medicinal herbs outside the city to you."

Jiale Nu is the most highly-trained person in the Jiale family. If it weren't for the important matter, Jiale Bi would not send him out.

After Xiao Chen returned from Miter Auction House,
When he returned to the family and occasionally met clansmen, Xiao Chen could sense that there was an extra bit of respect in the eyes they looked at him.

Could it be that the news of my going to the Miter Auction House today has already spread to the family?

This, this is too fast, right?

Xiao Chen ignored them and went straight to Xiao Yan's yard. He had not had time to sign in today.

It is the strategy of taking advantage of others.
He also wants to get the Burning Decree.

As soon as I entered the gate, I bumped into a girl in red.

"Brother Xiao Chen, I finally found you." The girl in red raised her head. There was a hint of charm on her slightly immature face, and a hint of pride flashed in her bright eyes.

You did this on purpose, didn't you?

However, given the relationship between Xiao Mei and him, there's nothing wrong with hugging each other.

Xiao Chen's eyes stopped on Xiao Mei's pretty face, scratched her nose, and asked:

"what's up?"

Xiao Mei was a little unhappy when she heard Xiao Chen asking what happened, and said with resentment:
"Can't I look for you if I have nothing to do? It's been a long time since I last saw you."

Didn’t we just separate this morning?

Although he thought so in his heart, Xiao Chen did not say it out loud.

"The tribesmen are watching us, what's going on?"

After hearing what Xiao Chen said, Xiao Mei immediately jumped back and said:
"The clan leader just came to you, and I don't know why."

"Okay, got it." Xiao Chen nodded and said, "Then I'll go first?"

After saying that, Xiao Chen raised his leg and walked towards the front yard.

"Wait a moment." Xiao Mei grabbed Xiao Chen, bit her lip, and suddenly mustered up the courage to say gently:
"My father asked me to take you back for dinner tonight."
