Wow, this really excited Yunpeng. He immediately rewrote the notice, postponed it for another five days, and finally confirmed that the auction would be held at the entrance of Xiaojiazhuangzi on the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month. He listed all the medicinal herbs to be auctioned on the notice.
Some bidders, upon seeing this, immediately felt a little relieved and were no longer so nervous.
Of the twenty items, one was bound to be sold. When the new emperor learned of this, he immediately put aside his official duties and personally led a group of people to the scene.
If it weren't for this incident, he wouldn't have known that Madam Xiao had returned.
They brought generous gifts to pay their respects to Xiao Nan.
Xiao Nan found this very useful. Some people are poor and arrogant, some are well-educated and courteous, and some, even those who hold high positions, are still flexible and humble. That's good.
Xiao Nan looked at the new emperor who was greeting him and said, "Alright, sit down."
"Thank you"
The new emperor sat to the left of Xiao Nan and said apologetically, "I came here for two reasons: first, I heard you had returned and wanted to pay my respects; second, I came for the ginseng and lingzhi."
"That thing is for healing, what do you need it for?"
"My mother was left with a chronic illness after giving birth to me, and the great physicians have been trying to cure her, but to no avail."
"This ginseng won't work. Why didn't you bring her with you this time?"
"As people get older, they should avoid long journeys and strenuous travel."
Xiao Nan flicked her finger, and a red thread flew out of her hand and flew outside.
"This is?"
"Let me take your mother's pulse."
The new emperor swallowed hard. This was thousands of miles away, and Madam Xiao had actually reached such a level.
Xiao Nan closed his eyes, and after a long while, he opened them and with a wave of his hand, pen and ink appeared on the table.
She quickly wrote down a prescription, and with a wave of her hand, she took out more than a dozen medicinal herbs from her spatial storage. In a short while, twenty medicine packets appeared in front of the new emperor.
"One packet a day, one bowl in the morning and one in the evening, and you will be fully cured in twenty days."
"thanks, thanks"
The new emperor was no longer aware of his own feelings. With a wave of his hand, paper and pen appeared; with another wave, medicine appeared. It was divine intervention.
"The New Year is almost here, and you still have a lot of important things to do. Go home early, there's no need to wait for you."
"But, but I also want to keep some spirit ginseng on hand, just in case something happens."
The more he spoke, the softer his voice became, just like a child who had done something wrong.
Xiao Nan then waved his hand, and one of each of the four items appeared before the new emperor.
“Take it, consider it tax for the land you’ve been holding for all these years.”
"Then, then, I won't be polite."
"Go back now. Be careful when you're decocting the medicine, don't let anyone find an opportunity."
"Yes,"
The new emperor left with a full load of goods. These four items would be excellent for refining longevity pills in the cultivation world, let alone here. He made a huge profit.
On the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, tourists and people who came to bid crowded the entire manor. Some people wanted to climb the trees, but they couldn't climb them no matter what they did, so they stood there obediently, not daring to move an inch.
Yunpeng, with his flowing white beard, stood at the entrance of the manor, with a row of long tables set up in front of him.
On the table were twenty exquisite jade boxes, which he had commissioned to be made specifically to hold these medicinal herbs.
Xiao Nan watched the scene below from the rooftop, amused.
Judging from their excited expressions, it's clear that the auction gave them tremendous motivation.
If that's the case, when she leaves, she can leave Yunpeng some good things so he can hold an auction every now and then to pass the long years.
This auction has also helped the Xiao family accumulate substantial wealth, comparable to the national treasury. If Xiao Nan were to take that position, the current emperor would likely be unable to resist him.
Time flies and the end of the year is here. This time, Xiao Nan's children and grandchildren came on the 30th. They know that after this year, their mother could leave at any time and it is uncertain when she will return. They may not be able to see their mother again for more than ten years.
The Xiao family members swarmed into the old house, looking at Xiao Nan with a chill running down their spines; things had developed far too quickly.
One’s own children, children’s children, children’s children’s children.
Good heavens, as Ningxia introduced the children of each family to him, Xiao Nan nodded blankly and said in a low voice.
"Don't come all of these days, Mother can't take it."
"Mother, these are all your descendants."
"Just this once. From now on, only you two can come. The younger generation shouldn't come. It's too scary."
Seeing her mother looking like a cute little girl, Ningxia felt both amused and wanting to cry.
“Mother, no matter how old your son is, he will always be your son; no matter how old you are, you will always be your mother.”
Xiao Nan suddenly slapped him on the head: "That's an indisputable fact, do you need to tell me?"
"hey-hey!"
"If you do a good job as the head of the Xiao family, your mother will never forget you. As soon as I finish my business, I will definitely come back to see you."
Ningxia nodded emphatically.
After receiving everyone's New Year's greetings on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Xiao Nan hasn't shown up since. There were just too many people; he's so socially awkward.
After personally seeing the children off on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, she enjoyed a peaceful day. Longlong, on the other hand, was very socially awkward and would not show his face when there were many people around.
At this moment, while accompanying Xiao Nan to enjoy the view from the rooftop, he said, "Master, I don't think you really want to go to Jupiter."
"I want to explore other planets first; I'm not in a rush to make a contract."
"You want to go to the world of cultivation?"
"Yes, I don't need to cultivate immortality every day. It's uncomfortable to be idle like this all the time. I need to get a good cauldron. I have the immortal formula and the medicinal materials, but I haven't systematically refined them. I also need to learn inscription and talisman techniques. I don't have any of these. I need to prepare some, right?"
"Yes, you're right."
"With these, once we've made a contract with the planet and returned, we can use them to pass the time. Sitting here like this is really uncomfortable."
"Alright, with your cultivation level, you can manage to go to mid-level planets, but going any deeper is not an option."
"I know. Those who can come out of the planet are all immortals. I am just a human immortal."
"Yes, that's why I advised you not to wander around, it could be dangerous."
"Can't we just hide in a spatial dimension?"
"No, the powerful will find out, and you won't even have time to run away."
"Okay, I'll be careful."
“I will accompany you on your journey outside. I am a spirit, and my perception of danger is stronger than yours.”
The two hit it off immediately, and Xiao Nan left as soon as May arrived.
This time, after leaving this planet, she has been traveling to planets not far from here, checking out every planet she doesn't have a contract with.
At the same time, I made a mark, mentally calculating the time, distance, and route, trying to get home as quickly as possible.
Finally, she saw a blue planet, but this planet was hundreds of times larger than the previous one, and what blocked her view was a thick layer of spiritual energy.
"Longlong, we've found it! This must be the cultivation world."
The two immediately arrived at the planet's surface, broke through the void, and took a deep breath.
"Yes, there is nothing else here but spiritual energy, and it is very abundant. This must be the cultivation world."
"Walk."
After the two landed, Xiao Nan immediately realized that his cultivation level had dropped to Emperor.
"Is this what they call the Heavenly Dao Seal?"
"Yes, the Heavenly Dao here does not allow those who have surpassed the cultivation level of an Emperor to enter, in order to protect the cultivators here."
"Even an Emperor is enough."
"Buy something, but don't even think about the contract; the laws of Heaven forbid it."
"I know, let's go."
The two followed a road towards the large city ahead. Along the way, they encountered monster carriages, spirit beast carriages, and flying monsters with people sitting on them, flying around in a very cool way.
Xiao Nan wasn't envious of these things; she had plenty of them in her own space too.
Judging from their age and appearance, they looked more like siblings. However, their good looks attracted the attention of passersby from time to time.
Suddenly, a white rhinoceros-shaped carriage stopped beside them. A small head popped out of the carriage, looking at them with sparkling eyes.
"Big brother, you are so beautiful."
Longlong's face darkened; he didn't want to deal with this impetuous little girl. Xiao Nan chuckled and asked, "Little girl, are you going out alone?"
"No, I'll stay with my parents."
