The Strongest Warrior’s Revenge novel Chapter 55

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? 

On the other side, the staff member continued. 

“Then let’s start bidding. The base price is 100 thousand dollars, and each increment must not be less than 10,000 dollars! The highest bidder wins! Let’s begin!” 

“What?” 

“It’s so expensive!” 

“Are you crazy? Isn’t this too expensive?” 

After the staff member said that, what echoed within the pharmacy was not sounds of intense bidding, but a series of complaints. 

The staff standing at the counter did not panic. 

Instead, he smiled calmly and slowly said, “Everyone, you guys know the rarity of this 20-year-old coptis herb. How can we sell it at a cheap price then? So, if anyone is unwilling to spend such a large sum of money to buy this medicinal ingredient. please leave.” 

“Sigh.” 

After the staff member finished speaking, sighs could be heard. Many people left the shop despite knowing how precious the coptis herb was. 

After a moment, the pharmacy actually became spacious. There were only about seven or eight people left, including 

Gavin 

There were a few middle-aged men who really looked like medicinal herb merchants. Only two individuals stood out One of them was Gavin, who was dressed plainly. 

The other one was dressed flamboyantly with an electronic cigarette hanging around his neck From time to time, he would take a puff. He had a nonchalant look 

After watching the group of people leave, he even sneered and blurted out, “A bunch of poor bastards!” 

Gavin glanced at this person indifferently and ignored him as if he were an insensible young gentleman from a prestigious family 

On the other side, the first person had already spoken. 

“100 thousand dollars!” 

1/9 

11 17 

thousand dollars!” 

“I bid 140 thousand dollars!” 

The price was getting higher and higher. Gavin did not say anything yet because this item was something that he was determined to get. 

Gavin knew that the coptis herb was at least more than 50 years old. In his heart, it was worth at least 1 million dollars. The current price had yet to exceed 200,000 dollars, so Gavin was not in a hurry at all. 

At this moment, the nonchalant-looking gentleman from earlier on shouted, “I bid 400 thousand dollars!” 

As soon as he spoke, the entire pharmacy instantly fell silent. The medicinal herb merchants looked at him in shock. 

The price had just reached 160 thousand dollars. Why did he increase it by 240 thousand dollars? 

The few of them looked at each other. One of them gritted his teeth and slowly raised his hand. 

“I bid 400…” 

Before he could finish speaking, the gentleman turned around and said to this person, “You punk, I advise you to keep quiet. Otherwise, bear the consequences!” 

Just as this gentleman finished speaking, a loud whoosh filled the room. More than ten fierce-looking men suddenly walked in from outside the pharmacy. They stood behind the gentleman and glared at the crowd in the pharmacy, including Gavin! 

“What?” 

Other than Gavin, the group of people instantly panicked. “Why you little…” 

“This is daylight robbery!” 

Although this group of people expressed their anger, their bodies were honest. They retreated one after another and directly fled from the pharmacy. 

Watching this group of people escape, the gentleman laughed arrogantly. 

“How dare this group of shitheads with no money and no power try to snatch it from me? I will kill whoever stands in my way one by one!” 

As the gentleman spoke such arrogant words, he swept his gaze across the remaining people present. The contempt and ridicule in his eyes were cast at everyone without reservation.
