2224 Abyss Mithril (1)
Mimi Si was not ecstatic with the price. Instead, she was very calm and just turned to look at Gege Lu.
“How is it?”
“A group of blind fools.” Gege Lu snorted.
“Gege Lu, when can you change your prejudice against herbalists?” Mimi Si sighed.
“It will never change! I hate herbalists! In the same guild, herbalists are treated so much better than alchemists, but what about their achievements?” Gege Lu had always felt very bad about this. Alchemists consumed much more resources than herbalists, but the price of alchemy products could not sell better than potions. Alchemy products that were painstakingly made and cost countless gold coins were not as valuable as a few small bottles of potions. Alchemists had a hard time.
“Gege Lu, I know you have a lot of opinions about the difference in treatment between herbalists and alchemists, but have you ever thought that although alchemy products can increase our fighting strength, there hasn’t been a war in Storm Continent for a long time and everyone is now in peaceful times? On the other hand, some diseases and accidental injuries have brought us inevitable losses. A bottle of potion is likely to save a life. In this case, is the potion really as useless as you think? Have you forgotten that when you almost died of illness, it was Master…”
“Mimi Si! Enough!” Gege Lu’s mood suddenly became very agitated and he interrupted Mimi Si, “I know you love your herbalism, but this has nothing to do with my attitude. I am very grateful to your master for saving me back then, but if it weren’t for this, you would not have been called to the capital city by our king. You…”
Mimi Si pursed her lips. At that time, Mimi Si was just an ordinary herbalist. Although she was talented, she did not have the chance to come into contact with the king. However, not long after Gege Lu went to Puko’s Bazaar, he became seriously ill. Mimi Si stayed by his bed for days and nights to take care of his body, but the illness came so fiercely that Mimi Si failed to improve Gege Lu’s condition even after she used everything she had learned in her life.
It was not until Mimi Si’s master appeared and took Gege Lu back to the capital city for treatment, and Mimi Si, as Gege Lu’s lover, naturally went to the capital city with them as well.
In the capital city, the haven for herbalism, Mimi Si’s talents were released, and her level of herbalism advanced by leaps and bounds, eventually attracting the king’s attention.
From that moment on, Mimi Si could never return to Puko’s Bazaar.
After recovering from his illness, Gege Lu returned to Puko’s alone, while Mimi Si stayed in the capital city forever and became a royal herbalist.
This incident had caused great trauma to Gege Lu’s heart and made him very resistant to herbalists.
Every time Gege Lu saw Kaka Qi, he would always think of Mimi Si. He always thought that if it hadn’t been for that accident, the president of the Puko Herbalist Guild would have been Mimi Si, and they would not have been completely separated.
The difference in treatment between the guilds and the complete breakup between lovers had become the main reason why Gege Lu hated herbalists.
Mimi Si knew the knot in Gege Lu’s heart, but there was nothing she could do about it. She could only sit quietly beside Gege Lu and continue to watch the auction.
After the craze for the potions was over, the person-in-charge of the auction came to the stage with a brocade box. He placed the brocade box on the table and slowly opened it.
A piece of metal with a silver luster quietly laid in the brocade box.
