Thinking of this, he slowly spoke, "Are you sure? I require quite a few medicinal herbs."
"I have always been a man of my word," Zhou Yuan said. "You know, with the gradual decline of Chinese medicine, it's not easy to teach and spread the knowledge. I just want to do my part. If you, Senior, could let us admire your superior medical skills, it would be of immense benefit to our teaching efforts!"
Besides, Chen Xiao was remarkably young. For him to command such respect from Li Zhengming, the sage of the National Medical Court—to the point that Li Zhengming even wished to become his disciple—spoke volumes about his exceptional nature. What harm was there in using some medicinal herbs to curry favor and build a good relationship? Zhou Yuan was no fool. He could see the stakes quite clearly.
Chen Xiao nodded. "Alright then!"
