Chapter 290 Friendship Across Generations



After everyone left, only Long Yi and Wang Jianli were left in the ward.

Wang Jianli's face turned serious. "Why call me Chief? If you don't mind, we can just call each other brothers. Just call me Brother Wang."

Long Yi was moved. Although Wang Jianli was the commander of the Beijing Military Region, he was humble and a casual man with good character who could be a close friend.

"Okay, Brother Wang is really a kind person. If you have any health problems in the future, please feel free to contact me."

Wang Jianli laughed out loud: "Brother Long, I have been sitting here for so long, and no one calls me a brother, let alone someone I can talk to. I will definitely cherish you as my friend regardless of age difference."

As the commander-in-chief of the Beijing Military Region, he is almost the ceiling of Beijing's official positions. He is surrounded by intrigue and deception. It has been a long time since anyone has been willing to speak to him from the heart.

He patted his chest and said, "My life was saved by Brother Long. I, Lao Wang, promise that as long as I am in the capital, I will not let you, my brother, suffer any injustice."

Long Yi's mind moved. Although he had unlocked the Jinshi Danyao chapter of Xuantian Tulu before, the profession of alchemist was extremely rare. Not to mention the top-level alchemy furnace, even the most basic one was not available on the market.

"Brother Wang, I really have something I want to ask you for help with."

Wang Jianli was just worrying about how to repay Long Yi's kindness this time, so he said straightforwardly, "Brother Long, as long as it doesn't touch upon the bottom line, just tell me."

Long Yi said, "I've been studying alchemy lately, but I haven't had a suitable alchemy furnace. I wonder if Brother Wang has any way to get one."

Wang Jianli pondered for a moment and said, "I didn't expect that Brother Long, at such a young age, would have dabbled in alchemy. However, the Alchemy Association has always strictly controlled the furnaces above the Xuan level. Even if they were to give me a favor, they would at most give me a Huang-level furnace."

Alchemy furnaces can also be considered as spiritual tools. According to the level of the alchemy furnace, they are divided into four types: heaven, earth, black and yellow. Alchemy furnaces of corresponding grades can only refine elixirs of corresponding grades. In other words, a yellow-grade alchemy furnace can only refine yellow-grade elixirs at most.

Long Yi shook his head. He could get a yellow-grade alchemy furnace by asking Ye Qingxueyun, but the lowest quality elixir recipes in the Jinshi Dan Yao chapter of the Xuantian Atlas were Xuan-grade elixirs, so a yellow-grade alchemy furnace would be of no use at all.

Wang Jianli added, "But tomorrow morning, Jinghai City's Lingxiao Pavilion will hold its annual Lingxiao Auction. It's a massive event, and it seems like they sold a single Earth-grade alchemy furnace last year."

"Jinghai City?" Long Yi's mind moved. Jinghai City is the capital of the neighboring province. Because it is close to the sea, its commercial industry is extremely developed.

If the capital is the political center of the country, then Jinghai City is the economic center of the country, and is known as the Magic City.

Long Yi said, "Brother Wang, thank you for the message. I'll try my luck tomorrow morning. If I can really buy a good alchemy furnace, I'll treat you to a meal when I come back."

Wang Jianli pulled a card from his pocket and said, "As the eldest brother, I'm treating you to a meal. Take this VIP card. Lingxiao Pavilion is a membership-based place, and you can't get in without a VIP card."

Long Yi took the card. The pure black card was inlaid with gold edges, and in the center were three large gold-plated characters written in flowing strokes: Lingxiao Pavilion.

I've heard Ye Qingxue talk to me about Lingxiao Pavilion before. It's an industry under the Jinghai Ling family. Whether it's strong financial resources or background influence, it is the top existence in Jinghai City.

Long Yi smiled and said, "Brother Wang has really helped me a lot this time. I'll go back and prepare for tomorrow's schedule. Remember to treat me when I come back."

Wang Jianli said loudly, "Okay. Tomorrow my men will lead the troops to maintain law and order at the scene. I'll say hello to him later. Feel free to tell him if you have anything to say."

After the two of them looked at each other tacitly, Long Yi walked out of the door of the medical department.

The lights were just coming on and it was almost nine o'clock in the evening. Ye Qingxue and the others should have gone home.

Long Yi thought it would be best to bring Ye Qingxue with him when he went to Lingxiao Auction House in Jinghai City tomorrow. She had been running the Treasure Pavilion for so many years, so she should be familiar with the ins and outs of Lingxiao Pavilion.

Thinking of this, Long Yi called Ye Qingxue, "Qingxue, are you guys home now? I'll stay at your place tonight."

Ye Qingxue recalled the madness of last night and said with a sweet laugh, "Does this mean you've tasted the sweetness? If I don't go to find Sister Qianqian and Sister Yining, won't they be jealous if I come to see me tonight?"

"Aren't you jealous enough today? This little bit is not a big deal. I have something important to discuss with you later." Long Yi said.

Ye Qingxue stopped joking and said, "Well, I just came back from the mall, you can just go home directly."

In the detached villa, Ye Qingxue had already prepared a sumptuous dinner when Long Yi entered.

Ye Qingxue smiled slightly, "Hubby, I made a loving dinner especially for you, waiting for you to come home."

Long Yi picked up a piece of steak with a fork and put it into his mouth. The soft, tender and fragrant taste instantly filled his taste buds.

"Qingxue, I didn't expect you to have such a skill. It seems I will be in for a treat in the future."

Ye Qingxue playfully stuck out her tongue and said with a smile, "I'm almost embarrassed by your compliments. By the way, you said on the phone that you wanted to talk to me about something."

Long Yi said seriously, "Tomorrow I'm going to the Lingxiao Auction House in Jinghai City to see if there are any earth-grade alchemy furnaces. If you're free, please come with me."

Ye Qingxue pondered for a moment and said, "An Earth-grade alchemy furnace? If you're lucky, you might be able to get one, but the starting price will definitely be over 100 million. After all, it's something you only come across once in a while.

I'll go with you tomorrow. I've been to Lingxiao Pavilion twice before with Grandpa, so I have some experience."

Long Yi nodded. Now he could only place his hopes on Lingxiao Auction House. After all, he had been able to find dragon pendant fragments at a small auction in Beijing Financial City last time. At a top venue like Lingxiao Auction House, he might be able to find a good alchemy furnace.

On the other side of the dining table, Ye Qingxue stretched lazily, and her snow-white and smooth swan neck looked even more beautiful under the light.

When Ye Qingxue came back in the evening, she was wearing loose and comfortable home clothes. The long home clothes just covered her buttocks. The apron she took off in time after cooking pinched her slender waist, which further showed off her proud figure.

Feeling Long Yi's scorching gaze, Ye Qingxue said coquettishly, "Hey, why are you staring at me? Weren't you satisfied yesterday?"

Long Yi laughed and said, "How can I possibly see enough of this? I'll treat you well tonight as a reward for you accompanying me to the auction tomorrow."

After saying that, he picked up Ye Qingxue and carried her sideways towards the bedroom.

Ye Qingxue shyly buried her face in Long Yi's chest, her white and tender feet kicking in the air, and said angrily: "I don't want this kind of reward, put me down quickly, I'm still in pain from last night."

Although Ye Qingxue said no, her body still responded honestly...
