Chapter 436


    Early the next morning, Anthony came over to pick Charlie up so that they could head to the


    Chinese Medicine Expo.


    Charlie did not expect that the Chinese Medicine Expo would also be held at the Aurous Hill


    Exhibition and Convention Center that was owned by the Grant family. 1


    Thest time that he was here, Jason had been very arrogant in front of him. However, at this point,


    Jason and his father, Justin, had already been turned into ashes, and there werepletely no


    traces of them in this world anymore.


    This corresponded with the phrase ''Her face is gone now, where to unknown, yet; peach-bloom


    beams on a spring winds flow’. 5


    As soon as Charlie stepped into the exhibition and convention center, he looked around the building


    and realized that there were missing person’s notices of Jason and Justin on the walls. 3


    The Grant family had already increased the cash reward to thirty million dors, but there was still


    no news of the father and son''s whereabouts at all.


    No matter what it was, these efforts were destined to b e futile.


    When Charlie and Anthony walked into the hall, they


    saw Graham and Aurora immediately.


    The Quinton family engaged in all kinds of business involving medicinal herbs and materials.


    Therefore, they were also one of the exhibitors at the Chinese Medicine Expo and had toe


    early in the morning t o prepare for the exhibition. 1


    As soon as Graham saw Charlie, he stepped forward excitedly before he bowed and said


    respectfully, "Mr. Wade, you''re here!" 3


    Aurora seemed to be a little worried, and she looked extremely haggard at this time.


    However, as soon as she saw Charlie, she was in a much better mood and walked up to him shyly


    before she bowed respectfully. Then, she smiled before she greeted him, "Hello, Mr. Wade."


    Charlie nodded slightly, and after staring at Aurora for a moment, he knew that she was hiding


    something. However, since she did not want to say anything, he did not want to pry into her


    personal matters.


    Therefore, he simply said, "Aurora, you do not look very well. You should rest more."


    Aurora blushed as soon as she heard Charlie''s words because she truly did not expect Charlie to


    worry or show any concern for her at all. Moreover, this was the first time he had expressed concern


    for herself. Aurora could not help but feel very happy, and she could only nod repeatedly.


    At this time, Graham also said respectfully, "Mr. Wade, are you here for the three-hundred-year-old


    purple ginseng?"


    Charlie nodded before he asked, “Do you have any inside news about it?"


    Graham smiled before he said, "This three-hundred-year-old super high-quality purple ginseng has


    been acquired by a medicinal herbpany near the mountains in the Northeast. I heard that the


    starting price for the auction this time is five million dors. I n fact, five million dors is not a very


    high price because purple ginseng is actually worth a lot of money. It is estimated that the final bid


    will definitely end up being more than thirty million dors in the end since the price-performance


    ratio would not be too high." 7


    Charlie nodded in acknowledgment.


    High-quality purple ginseng was of little use to any ordinary people or Chinese doctors.


    The purple ginseng, Ganoderma Lucidum, or also known as the Cordyceps Sinensis, were all


    precious and rare medicinal herbs that would basically have little to no use at all if they were eaten


    directly. They would have the effect of strengthening the body, but they would not have the ability to


    cure any diseases at all. 2


    Therefore, if someone wanted to exert a good medicinal herb to its maximum effect and potential, it


    would have to depend on thebination of the prescription and the person''s ability to refine and


    concoct the medicine.


    The prescription was, in fact, the most important thing. The same ten medicinal materials used to


    form a prescription could either cure a disease or kill a person. 6


    After all, the fundamental importance lies in the different proportions of the ten different medicinal


    herbs. Simply put, a difference in the proportions of the medicinal herbs could produce such a big


    gap and difference, what more if there were several different medicinal herbs in the prescription


    itself? 3


    Aside from a good prescription, the ability to refine good medicinal herbs into a good medicine was


    also very important.

    If someone did not have enough ability to refine or concoct a good medicine, even the most


    powerful medicine would be an ordinary one. 2


    If the person had a very strong ability, then even an ordinary medicine could turn out to be an


    extraordinary one.


    Moreover, if a person was excellent in all the various aspects, an extraordinary medicine with ten


    points could turn out to be a miracle pill worth a hundred points. 2


    Charlie was the kind of person who could turn an extraordinary medicine into a miracle pill.


    Coupled with his secret prescriptions, he would be able to concoct and produce really rare and


    magical


    medicines. 4


    Therefore, the purple ginseng would prove to be very useful to him, and it would not make much


    sense if it ended up in someone else''s hands.


    If Charlie could get his hands on the purple ginseng, h e would be able to refine and concoct a


    medicine that was even better than the pill he had given to each of them thest time!
