CHAPTER 863: CHAPTER 839: VIP ROOM

He Lina smiled politely, "Mr. Hao, since the appraisal is complete, please come with me to handle the formalities."

The implication being that you’re free to leave.

A very tactful way of showing someone out.

Hao Zhigang coughed, acknowledging that this treatment was something he couldn’t really blame them for.

He brought it upon himself.

Jiang Xiaoxiao chuckled, reached out, and took out a bottle of the Youthful Appearance Pill, placing it on the table.

"Hello, could you appraise the value of this bottle of the Youthful Appearance Pill?"

They were here to get things done.

No time to waste.

The sooner the Hao family starts making money, the sooner he can handle his own affairs.

The appraiser absentmindedly took the bottle.

There wasn’t much expectation, given what these two just presented.

Even if this bottle contained Youthful Appearance Pills, it was likely no more than grade four or five.

The two people before him looked young and shabbily dressed, suggesting a humble background; even if they were heirs of an ancient medicine family, they were likely of poor aptitude.

Not expecting anything impressive from them.

Opening the bottle, the appraiser detected a pleasant fragrance.

His attention sharpened.

The assistant, who had been idly watching earlier, also became serious.

They had professional standards.

Quickly repeating the previous process, though noticeably more careful compared to last time.

He Lina cast a deep glance at Hao Zhigang and the girl in front of her.

Who were they in the Hao family?

Bringing such surprises along?

Were they distrustful of Yixin Hall?

How intriguing.

Unable to help but pay attention to Hao Zhigang.

Hao Zhigang held his breath, his great-grandmother claimed it was a Super-grade Youthful Appearance Pill.

But he didn’t dare believe it.

The Hao family hadn’t been able to successfully produce a Super-grade Youthful Appearance Pill in generations.

It’s based on an ancient formula, creating a Top-grade Youthful Appearance Pill had already taken all their efforts.

And now a Super Grade?

Using the Ten Thousand Year Snow Lotus, he couldn’t help but feel a bit anxious.

Suspected of deception, it’s well known that creating a Super-grade Youthful Appearance Pill requires a Hundred Thousand Year Snow Lotus!

The Ten Thousand Year Snow Lotus already costs half a million.

Imagine the price of a Hundred Thousand Year Snow Lotus.

It’s practically priceless.

Even he couldn’t believe it.

The appraiser put the powder into a machine, his face flushed as he stared at it.

Jiang Xiaoxiao was puzzled, earlier just a taste test was enough for results, but this time a machine was needed.

She hadn’t seen this machine before, wasn’t it part of the Ancient Medical World?

Using modern machines?

Looks like these heirs of the ancient medical world weren’t stuck in the past; they’d melded lots of advanced culture, machine appraisals indeed being more precise.

Beep!

He Lina and the appraiser both widened their eyes.

"Super-grade... Youthful Appearance Pill?"

He Lina exclaimed, "Impossible!"

In the annals of history, through the ages, creating Super-grade elixirs in the ancient medical world wasn’t a difficult feat.

The lineage had once produced many illustrious figures; back then, Super-grade elixirs dazzled the entire world.

Countless emperors and generals yearned to buy Super-grade elixirs from them.

These elixirs were worth a fortune, nearly impossible to procure even with immense wealth.

But over time, as dynasties changed, their ancient medical lineage began to decline.

Super-grade elixirs became difficult to make due to rare ingredients.

For nearly three hundred years, no one had made one.

No one had heard of making a Super-grade elixir.

Now a Super-grade elixir appeared?

The appraiser nodded excitedly, "Yes, it’s Super-grade! Definitely is!"

This answer unmistakably woke He Lina up as well.

This wasn’t a decision for a mere receptionist to make alone.

The Hao family was due for a comeback.

He Lina immediately bowed, a full ninety-degree bow, "Mr. Hao, please follow me to the VIP room, and I will get our general manager to discuss the auction with you."

This place no longer sufficed for Hao Zhigang and company.

Hao Zhigang offered a restrained smile, "Alright!"

He could scarcely contain his excitement, if not for his great-grandmother’s teachings over the years, he might have leapt and cheered.

It’s truly a Super-grade.

Standing respectfully, "Auntie, after you!"

Jiang Xiaoxiao suddenly appeared much more elevated.

He Lina’s gaze towards Jiang Xiaoxiao transformed.

Auntie?

Such a young auntie, and yet an elder of the Hao family, no wonder she could bring out a Super-grade Youthful Appearance Pill. She thought how could the Hao family send a junior to handle everything.

Her eyes were filled with respect.

"Ms. Hao, please!"

Jiang Xiaoxiao feigned composure and followed along.

Damn it, Hao Zhigang was using her as a pawn.

Now he remembered she was an elder.

Hao Zhigang smugly flashed a toothy grin behind Jiang Xiaoxiao.

This time she couldn’t escape.

He must ensure the world knows Fan Xiao is a daughter of the Hao family.

Of course, Jiang Xiaoxiao had agreed to this, since she intended to enter the Medicine God Association under the Hao name. If she didn’t pose as a Hao family daughter, they definitely wouldn’t allow her in.

This was a win-win situation.

But the old lady privately discussed with Hao Zhigang and they both agreed, Jiang Xiaoxiao had to be tied to the Hao family.

Therefore, establishing Jiang Xiaoxiao as a Hao family daughter was necessary, anyway, the great-grandmother indeed once had a granddaughter who disappeared years ago.

He was going all out to treat Jiang Xiaoxiao as an esteemed elder to show outsiders she truly was their Hao family daughter.

Later on, even if Jiang Xiaoxiao wanted to distance from the Hao family, it would be impossible. The old lady’s foresight was keen, outright saying their family’s fortune spanning hundreds of years might be arriving.

The woman before them was the Hao family’s benefactor.

Originally, they only thought about repaying favors, believing if outsiders came to let them repay, it would be in search of medicine.

But now they realized this wasn’t repaying a debt, it was having someone bestow another favor upon them.

And this time’s favor couldn’t even be returned.

VIP room.

Jiang Xiaoxiao and Hao Zhigang went in, immediately attended by a server bringing exquisite refreshments, truly exquisite.

They were presented with fragrant Jin Junmei tea and sweet, smooth various pastries.

There was also a beautifully arranged fruit platter, even hand wipes and lemon water were fully prepared.

The server was providing courtesy service throughout.

Jiang Xiaoxiao felt slightly uneasy, the kneeling awaiting service felt rather unnatural.

A sense of superiority was subtly growing.

Jiang Xiaoxiao discreetly cautioned herself not to be corroded by the class notions of luxury the old dignitaries enjoyed.

One can’t deny, humans are mortal, easily accustomed to lavish indulgences.

Seeing there was no one around, Hao Zhigang finally relaxed, carelessly reclined on the sofa, a real leather sofa, sipped some tea, picked a pastry, and threw it into his mouth.

"These people sure know how to enjoy themselves."

When their family was wealthy, they never enjoyed such luxury.

The VIP room truly lived up to its name.

Never expected he would experience this treatment.

But the door was suddenly pushed open.

"Who are you? How could you casually enter a VIP room?"

Five security guards in uniform accompanied by a chubby man appeared.

"It’s them, I saw them sneak into the VIP room myself."

Yixin Hall had its own rules; not just anyone could freely enter the VIP room! One needed Yixin Hall’s special VIP card to do so.

Clearly, Jiang Xiaoxiao and Hao Zhigang hadn’t shown one earlier.

Fatty Zhang saw it all very clearly.
