Chapter 218
When Tony heard Joseph take the initiative to mention refining Energizing Pill, he was iparably
excited. He said respectfully and politely, “Then I’ll have to trouble Elder Quigley.” “No trouble, no
trouble at all.” Joseph yed with the y teapot in his hand again.
It was as if he was willing to help Tony refine elixir pills for the sake of the y teapot. Tony looked at
Elder Quigley’s expression and secretlyplimented himself for being smart. He had delivered the
right gift. He took the initiative to say, “Elder Quigley, I wonder if I can help with the process? For
example, what kind of venue and tools do you need, what kind of raw materials are required and
such?”

He couldn’t possibly ask Joseph to refine pills and have the man provide medicinal ingredients.
Moreover, now that Joseph had agreed to this matter, he had to facilitate it as soon as possible to
prevent Joseph from going back on his word. “A lot of medicinal ingredients are needed indeed,” Elder
Quigley said. Tony said enthusiastically. “Elder Quigley, please give me a list. I’ll prepare it as soon as
possible.”
Elder Quigley nodded seriously. “Alright, I’ll make the list now. In addition to medicinal ingredients, I’d
also need a wood stove.” As if afraid that Tony did not know what a wood stove was, Elder Quigley put
down the y teapot in his hand and gestured with his hands. “It’s the kind of stove that burns firewood
in the countryside. You know it, right? The kind of mud stove used for heating cauldrons and stuff. Do
you know it?” Tony immediately nodded. “Yes, I know.”
“Alright, it’s good that you know… What do I want to do again?” Joseph frowned and pondered, as if he
was really a little forgetful because he was old. Tony smiled and patiently reminded, “Elder Quigley, you
have to make a list to buy the raw materials to refine Energizing Pill.” “Oh, right!” Elder Quigley
immediately “remembered” what Tony said. He looked everywhere for a pen. Tony immediately took out
his signature pen and handed it to him.
Elder Quigley took it and sat down to write the materials. He muttered, “Clear Heart elixir pills, aimed at
clearing and calming the heart, strengthening the foundation, nourishing the blood, and returning the
five viscera to the spleen. Nourishing the blood and traveling through the liver, wild chrysanthemums,
lotus hearts, summer withered grass… The five viscera return to the spleen, zing astragalus, zing
licorice, angelica, dates, poria…” Tony was overjoyed when he heard Elder Quigley reciting medicinal
ingredients’ name seriously. As Elder Quigley wrote the name medicinal ingredients, he could not help
but y with the y teapot. He really liked it.
Seeing this, Tony said solicitously, “Elder Quigley, I know that there will be a Mr. Quimby y teapot
auction. soon. When the timees, I’ll bid for a whole set of y pots for you.” “Thank you so much,
thank you, thank you indeed!” Elder Quigley was overjoyed. Tony thought to himself, “As expected, old
people have three major weaknesses, fear of death, greed, and talking too much.” He figured that even
a master-level figure like Joseph was no exception.
Eider Quigley wrote a few more medicinal ingredients names and continued to y with the y
teapot. Suddenly, he touched an uneven spot and his face darkened. He put down the pen in his hand
and pushed his reading sses up the bridge of his nose. Then, he picked up the y teapot and
leaned closer to take a look. The more she looked at the teapot, the darker his expression became.
“What’s wrong?” Tony asked in surprise.
“Hmph!” Elder Quigley suddenly snorted and stuffed the y teapot into Tony’s hands. “Take your pot
home.” “Elder Quigley, I don’t know what I’ve done wrong. Please tell me. I’ll definitely change.” Tony
was puzzled, wondering why did Elder Quigley suddenly change his expression. He looked at the y
teapot in his hand. There was nothing wrong with this pot. He had personally bid for it. It was definitely
the real thing!
“Hmph! Leave!” Elder Quigley said. Tony was very troubled and puzzled. He lowered his posture even
more and asked humbly, “Elder Quigley, I must have done something wrong. Please tell me.” “Hmph,
stop being hypocritical here. You’re using a fake pot to fool me. Do you really think I’m senile?” Elder
Quigley looked even angrier.
“Fake pot? That’s absolutely impossible. Elder Quigley, this is definitely Mr. Quimby’s personal work. I
spent. 1.5 million dors to buy it. It’s definitely not a fake.” Tony hurriedly exined. “Hmph!” Elder
Quigley snorted again. He took out his phone and said, “I’ll expose you piece of shit today.” As he
spoke, he opened Whatsapp and called Cash. Later, Cash’s face appeared in the video call.
He seemed to have ced his phone somewhere. He was pinching the mud in his hand as he asked,
“Old man, what’s the matter? I’m busy.” He had been very diligent recently. Every day when he was
free, he would be making a pot. In the past, he only made pots to pass the time. At present, he wanted
to make money from them. He wanted to prepare a huge dowry for Anna before the wedding. He
wanted to show the bastards at Jadeborough that Anna was not a penniless country girl.
“Look at this pot. Is it yours? This is clearly a fake. Hmph, there are so many swindlers out there these
days. How dare they take a fake to deceive me? I’m so angry!” Joseph hinted at Cash in the video.
Tony looked at the video and saw that it was really Cash. He immediately said respectfully, “Mr.
Quimby, I’m Tony Parks, a member of the Parks family from Jadeborough. I bought this pot at the
auction. It’s indeed the original.” Cash ignored Tony and said to Joseph, “Show me the butt of the pot.”
When Tony heard this, he immediately pointed the butt of the y teapot at the camera and said, “Mr.
Quimby, this is your teapot, right?” Cash looked at it and his expression darkened. “Bullshit. How can
my pot be so trashy? My pot butt is very beautiful. These fakes do look like my pot in general, but
definitely not in the details.” Joseph had already hinted that this was a fake, so he naturally had to
cooperate.
“Mr. Quimby, this is really your pot.” When Tony heard Cash say that it was a fake, he panicked. Cash
cursed in the video. “Are you calling me blind? How can I not recognize my own pot? This is a fake.”
“Thank you, thank you. I’ll treat you to a mealter.” Elder Quigley hung up. When he looked at Tony
again, his expression became even worse. “Hmph! You can leave now. I’m going to take my lunch
break.”
As he spoke, he angrily crumpled the medicinal ingredients list into a ball. Seemingly not appeased, he
unfolded it again and tore it apart forcefully. Then, he threw it into the trash can. After throwing it away,
he looked at Tony impolitely. “Why aren’t you leaving?” He had spent so much time and put on such a
show just to make Tony think that he was just a step away from being able to hire him to refine
Energizing Pill.
It was most heartbreaking to have endless hope in one’s heart before returning disappointed. It was
much more ufortable than just refusing to do it at the beginning. Tony exined, “Elder Quigley, I
really didn’t know that this was a fake. Please give me another chance. There will be a Mr. Quimby set
in a few days. I will definitely bid for a whole set for you.”
