Chapter 55

In the west suburbs of Brookspring, Gavin rushed to Bailey Pharmacy, which lan had mentioned.

When Gavin stood at the entrance of Bailey Pharmacy, he realized that the entrance of Bailey Pharmacy was actually as crowded as a marketplace.

It was a stark contrast to the pharmacy run by lan.

Gavin also spent a lot of effort to squeeze through the crowd.

Just as Gavin entered the shop, a cheerful voice came from inside.

“Everyone, please be quiet!”

“The bidding for our 20-year-old coptis herb will begin immediately!”

The person who spoke stood at the tall counter in front of Gavin, looking very excited.

There was a strange-looking medicinal herb on the tray in his hand.

Moreover, its fragrance was overwhelming!

When Gavin saw the medicinal herbs on the tray, a hint of joy appeared in his eyes.

It was the most important medicinal ingredient he needed to treat his aunt, Kris Conor’s injuries. The coptis herb! The information that lan told him was indeed accurate!

Moreover, judging from the appearance and fragrance of this medicinal herb, it was clearly more than 50 years old! So, why did this person say that it was only 20 years old?

How would Gavin know that very few people in this world knew how to value the coptis herb?

How could there be so many people like Gavin who could see the coptis herb for what it was worth at one glance?
