"Yes, it's a top-grade foundation-building pill." The woman said, and specifically pointed out the word "top-grade".
Feng Jiu smiled after hearing this. Ordinary foundation-building pills should be readily available in the noble families of the upper reaches of the continent. However, top-grade foundation-building pills have very few impurities and are even more precious. An ordinary alchemist may only produce one top-grade foundation-building pill out of a hundred. Therefore, although this mirror is a magic weapon, it is not worthwhile to exchange it for a top-grade foundation-building pill.
"Ah? You want a top-grade foundation-building pill!" She said with some regret, touched the mirror, and had to hand it back: "I don't have a top-grade one, I only have a low-grade one."
The woman smiled and took the mirror back without saying anything, seeming not surprised.
Fengjiu turned around and was about to leave when a middle-aged man came up to her.
"This little brother, please stay."
Fengjiu looked at the man who was blocking her way. He was obviously using most of his body to block her way. This action made her a little unhappy, but she didn't show it on her face.
"What's up?"
“Haha, little brother, I’m the manager here. Can I have a word with you?” The middle-aged man made a gesture of invitation and wanted to take Fengjiu to the back.
At this moment, the old man who had come in with Fengjiu was about to leave. He caught a glimpse of this scene and his expression changed slightly. He immediately stepped forward and shouted at Fengjiu, “Didn’t I ask you to follow me? Why are you running around everywhere after entering here? You have no rules!”
As he said that, he hurriedly said to the middle-aged man: "Manager Wang, this is my grandnephew. If there is any offense, please don't be offended."
The middle-aged man saw it, his eyes flickered slightly, and he glanced at the second floor without leaving a trace, then smiled at Mr. Tan and said, "It turns out that this little brother is Mr. Tan's grandson's nephew."
“If Steward Wang has nothing else to say, we will take our leave first.” He bowed and gestured for Fengjiu to leave with him.
Seeing this, Fengjiu didn't say anything and quietly followed the old man out. When she got outside, she could still feel that the old man in gray in front of her was tense and seemed a little nervous.
She followed quietly and left halfway without saying a word, because, behind them, someone was following them.
Until, after walking through several streets and entering an alley, they turned into a small courtyard, closed the door, and the old man in gray came into the room and let out a sigh of relief, then frowned and looked at Fengjiu.
"You young man, are you from out of town?"
"I just came down from the mountain." Fengjiu said with a simple smile.
The old man looked at Fengjiu and saw that the young man was handsome and honest. His strength was only at the foundation-building stage and he was dressed simply. It was obvious that he was not from a noble family. No wonder he was targeted by Manager Wang.
"That Jubao Tower is not a good place either. Don't go there again." He then added, "If you are just passing by here, leave the city as soon as possible to avoid trouble."
"What kind of trouble will it be?"
She couldn't help but be curious. Although nothing had happened, the old man seemed to be very worried that she would be taken away by Manager Wang, which made her curious. Why was she being targeted? And what did he do to her
