This fifth elder was bent on finding fault with Lin Xiao and picking thorns, and Lin Xiao could naturally see it.

Without waiting for Lin Xiao to answer, Han Qing on the side spoke: "Those bandits were indeed killed by him. ”

"That's true, we've seen it with our own eyes. Xiaoyu also followed.

As soon as these words came out, the five elders were completely speechless.

Many people who still want to express their opinions and opinions don't know how to speak.

Looking at Lin Xiao's gaze, everything was full of horror.

"It's really a tiger father without a dog!" an elder who was close to Lin Changxuan looked at Lin Xiao and praised.

"That's right, it's only been a few days, Lin Xiao has become so powerful, he can destroy the White Horse Gang alone, he is really amazingly talented, an absolute genius!" another elder praised.

The Fifth Elder, the Sixth Elder, and some other elders who were not close to Lin Changxuan were how ugly and ugly their faces were.

The better Lin Xiao became, the more unhappy they became.

"I'm not alone. Lin Xiao shook his head at the elder who praised him, looked at Han Qing and said, "They also helped me." ”

"No wonder!" The fifth elder immediately said loudly, "I'll just say that you are alone, how can you kill the White Horse Gang, when I look at these two, they are extraordinary, so they must have contributed more and killed many bandits, and you, you must just deal with some small minions and pick up big bargains!"

Hearing this, many elders and disciples also nodded in agreement.

Because in their opinion, only in this way can it conform to their perception of Lin Xiao.

That's reasonable, it's reasonable!

"You're saying the opposite. Xiaoyu retorted, "It was he who contributed more, and the head of the bandits was killed by him." ”

"We're just helping him deal with some of the bandits who are trying to escape. Han Qing echoed.

As soon as the words came out, the five elders and those who agreed only felt a hot pain on their faces.

Slapped in the face again.

Lin Jue stood among the disciples, he was already gritting his teeth at this moment, and secretly said in his heart: "What! Why is this guy so powerful! He even killed the boss of the White Horse Gang! That is a martial artist of the Quenching Martial Realm Ninefold! Could it be that he is already the strength of the Quenching Martial Realm Ninefold?"

If Lin Xiao was this strength, then he would have a headache when he thought that he was going to challenge Lin Xiao next.

That's just looking for abuse!

"I can only rely on the Restless Qi Pill!" Lin Jue couldn't help but touch the little jade bottle in his arms, "The Great Elder said that if I take this Pill, I can be invincible in the True Qi Realm, even if it is a Ninefold Martial Artist of the Quenching Martial Realm, I can kill it! In this case, even if he is now the strength of the Quenching Martial Realm Ninefold, I can deal with it! I hope this is true, the Great Elder didn't lie to me!"

Lin Xiao didn't bother to bother with them anymore, so he looked at Lin Changxuan and asked, "Father, you should be gathered here not just for this matter, right?"

Lin Changxuan turned upset at this time, frowned, and said, "That's right, there is something else to do." ”

"Oh, what's the matter?" Lin Xiao looked at Lin Changxuan's appearance, knowing that things shouldn't be simple.

"The Lin family's recent medicinal materials and pill business have had big problems. Lin Changxuan sighed, "Not only the Lin family, but the entire Lingyu City, except for the Zhao family, the drug business of the other families is all out of trouble!"

"Oh, what's the problem?" Lin Xiao asked.

Lin Changxuan said eloquently: "The problem is..."

After listening to Lin Changxuan's speech, Lin Xiao understood everything.

It turned out that the Zhao family had made a big move recently, and they sent people to buy out several medicinal materials that made Yucheng sell well, resulting in a great shortage of medicine in Yucheng.

This is also the reason why Lin Xiao went to buy snake embryo grass, but he couldn't buy it anywhere.

Then, the Zhao family purchased medicinal materials from those medicine pickers at twice the price.

This also directly led to the fact that the herb pickers only sold the collected medicinal materials to the Zhao family, so that the rest of the families were all out of supply.

For this reason, the Lin family went to other cities to buy a bunch of medicinal materials, and then on the way, they were robbed by the White Horse Gang.

Of course, it's all irrelevant.

The most important thing is that after the Zhao family purchased these medicinal materials at a high price, they all refined them into pills and sold them.

The selling price is one-tenth lower than the usual price of pills.

This attracted those martial artists, who only went to Zhaojiafang City to buy medicines, and no one cared about the pills of the Lin family, the Fang family and other families.

If the Zhao family is allowed to continue like this, it can be said that the Zhao family will monopolize the entire drug business in Ling Yucheng.

The drug business is the main source of money for many families, and if this business is lost, many small families are estimated to be directly ruined.

Even if it is the Lin family, it may be able to rely on the rest of the business to support it at the beginning, but if it continues for a long time, it will not be able to make ends meet, and it will not take a few years, and it will also decline.

"Buying medicinal materials at a high price and refining them into pills and selling them at a low price, don't the Zhao family be crazy, right?" Lin Xiao couldn't help but smack his tongue and said, "Increasing the cost and reducing the income, this is almost a loss-making business!"

"That's what we thought at first. ”

Lin Changxuan shook his head.

"But later we found out that the Zhao family has a new worship elder, who is a super powerful fourth-grade alchemist, and the reason why the pill is expensive is because it is too difficult to become an alchemist, after the Zhao family has this alchemist, the pill refined can reduce the loss of the pill by at least a quarter, so that their cost is equivalent to a reduction, even if they buy the pill at a high price and sell the pill at a low price, they can also make money, and they can also make more money than before!"

"I see. Lin Xiao suddenly realized.

The reason why the pill is expensive is because of the ten parts of the material, it is possible that when refining, nine parts will be lost, and only one part will become the pill.

But the Zhao family's new four-grade alchemist can help the Zhao family reduce the materials that originally had to be consumed by nearly nine parts by at least a quarter.

In other words, for every ten copies of the pill material, the Zhao family can reduce the loss of at least two more copies.

These two materials are enough to make up for their cost of buying drugs at a high price and selling drugs at a low price.

"The head of the family, you can't let the Zhao family go on like this. An elder said worriedly, "In this case, our family will be destroyed by the Zhao family sooner or later! We will unite with the rest of the families to seek justice from the Zhao family!"

"How do you ask for it?" another elder asked rhetorically, "This is business, the shopping mall is like a battlefield! Their Zhao family can invite a powerful alchemist, and it is also their Zhao family's ability, this is legitimate competition, in terms of reasoning, their Zhao family is not unfair!"

"Alas, our Lin family's alchemists are all first-grade and second-grade alchemists, and the most powerful ones are only third-grade, if we also have fourth-grade alchemists, we will be able to compete with the Zhao family!"

"In the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, the most powerful alchemist is only a sixth-grade alchemist, a fourth-grade alchemist, that is an existence that can be treated politely in the royal city, how can it be so easy to invite?"

"Then how did their Zhao family invite such a powerful alchemist?"

Many elders were puzzled.

"It's just a mere fourth-grade alchemist. At this time, Lin Xiao smiled disdainfully.

The fifth elder frowned and looked at Lin Xiao: "Lin Xiao, although you are powerful now, you can't look down on others, the fourth-grade alchemist, that is an extremely noble existence, even if it is a Tianyuan Realm martial artist, you have to respect it, how can you talk like that?"

"The enemy's alchemist, I also want to respect?" Lin Xiao asked rhetorically, "Then the fifth elder, you are really powerful!

The Fifth Elder didn't expect Lin Xiao to put such a big hat on him, and he was immediately shocked and said, "I didn't! I just said that! I want to teach you what it means to be humble!"

"Hmph!" Lin Xiao snorted coldly, "I know how to respect humility, but I only know that strength is respected, and the same is true for alchemists! ”

"You really have some strength, so you are arrogant!" The Sixth Elder couldn't help but speak up, "With the identity of a martial artist alone, you are not enough to look down on an alchemist, unless you are also an alchemist! Moreover, even if you are an alchemist, you must at least be at a higher level than others before you are qualified to say such things!"

"yes!

"Alchemists are also martial artists, and it is true that they are martial artists alone, so they can't be disrespectful like this!"

"Lin Xiao, did you hear it? You can't talk nonsense, otherwise, if it spreads, it will anger those alchemists, and when the time comes, they will all come to our Lin family to settle accounts, can you afford it?"

Lin Xiao snorted coldly: "I didn't talk nonsense! Moreover, I am not just a martial artist, I am also an alchemist!"
