“Apothecary Hong quit the job? But he’s the principal specialist researching how to speed up the yellow shaft’s growing period! How can he… Did he say for what reason exactly that he’s quitting the job!”
“That son of a b*tch didn’t say anything!” Old Man Sun was hopping mad as he scolded angrily, “Just earlier, he had thrown down his tools, and he even pulled along a good few specialists to leave with him!”
“Aiyah, then hurry up and stop him!” Lin Yongyi was also so anxious that he jumped up.
How could this Apothecary Hong just leave after saying so when he hadn’t even completed the research on this yellow shaft’s harvest?
These days, it was all thanks to this Apothecary Hong’s specialized medicine that they were able to grow this specially-bred yellow shaft. There would be a harvest in another two to three months, so how could he leave just after saying so, wah!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOld Man Sun hastily cried, “I had long sent people to stop them. At this time, they should be blocked at the entrance to the compound.”
“Then let’s hurry over to take a look.” The city lord hastily turned to bow to Crown Prince Mo. “Your Highness, this humble official is lacking in manners. There are some urgent matters that need to be taken care of immediately.”
Crown Prince Mo nodded. “I’ll go along with you for a look.”
“Yes, yes.” City Lord Lin quickly nodded before hurrying after Old Man Sun to the entrance.
This field was situated right behind a peasant family compound.
Ever since this farmland could produce this yellow shaft, City Lord Lin, who was wild with joy, was worried that the undiscerning populace would run inside and spoil the field with their treading, so he had long ordered soldiers to guard the compound.
Thus, the soldiers who had received orders would definitely stop Apothecary Hong and the rest from leaving.
At this moment, Hong Yaowei was crossing his arms with his nose turned up toward the sky. He was even using an icy gaze to look disdainfully out of the corner of his eye at the soldiers blocking his path. “All of you, step aside.”
“Pardon us, Apothecary Hong. This is the city lord’s order. Please wait a moment.” The soldiers who were guarding the peasant family compound responded in a neither obsequious nor supercilious manner.
This Hong Yaowei really wasn’t of good character. Normally, because he was one of the most important specialists in charge of researching the yellow shaft’s growing period, the city lord and the rest treated him with extreme courtesy, while in fear and trepidation.
Hence, this Hong Yaowei got too full of himself and would turn up his nose at everyone he saw. This caused the soldiers and servants in the peasant family compound to look down on him very much.
They were only treating this Hong Yaowei politely and courteously because of the city lord’s order.
When the city lord and Crown Prince Mo hurried to the entrance of the peasant family compound, they saw Hong Yaowei angrily reprimanding the soldiers guarding the entrance.
Running over hastily, the city lord repeatedly consoled with an obsequious smile, “Apothecary Hong, Apothecary Hong, please quell your anger, Apothecary Hong. What have the servants done to dissatisfy Apothecary Hong? Why does Apothecary Hong suddenly want to leave?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHong Yaowei gave an emphatic harrumph. “City Lord Lin, everyone is well aware of what you all have done. Don’t play dumb with me!”
Only
City Lord Lin was at a total loss. He truly didn’t understand how he had offended this Apothecary Hong.
“Apothecary, my humble self truly has no idea what has caused Apothecary Hong to be unhappy. Since there is no harm for Apothecary Hong to speak explicitly, would that be alright?”
Hong Yaowei chortled in anger. “What you did to my junior sister at the city gate yesterday evening, how come you have completely forgotten everything in the span of a night?”
Junior sister?
Lin Yongyi’s heart sank, and in a split second, the reason for Hong Yaowei’s outburst became as clear as a mirror to him.
That’s right, this Hong Yaowei was also an apothecary that hailed from Celestial Medicine Valley. Moreover, he was Feng Manyun’s senior brother.
It must be that Feng Manyun’s incident had upset this Lord Hong.
