Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

The three old men quickly finished off the three plates of vegetables.

They all looked like they wanted more.

Xia Wudi and Zhang Dongcan both looked at Lu Yin Zhenren with ill intent.

"Hey Lao Lu, look, all the food's gone. As the host, shouldn't you ask the kitchen to refill it?" Xia Wudi said righteously.

Zhang Dongcan nodded in deep agreement: "Exactly, hurry up, stir-frying a few plates of vegetables will be quick, there's no reason not to let us eat vegetables!"

The three young men stared at Master Lu Yin with sincere expressions, as if to say, "Would you like to order more food?"

Zhang Yi forced a smile and said, "Uncle-Master Lu, vegetables aren't suitable for long-term storage. Their energy might dissipate if left too long!"

Zhou Ruolan chimed in at the opportune moment: "That's right, the energy might dissipate completely soon, and then we'll have lost out!"

Lu Jiu opened her mouth, intending to say something, but ultimately didn't dare to upset her master.

Zhang Yi and Zhou Ruolan are outsiders after all, so their master won't make things difficult for them.

However, after everyone left, Lu Jiu felt uncomfortable being singled out by his master for making things difficult for him, so he chose to remain silent.

Zhang Yi and Zhou Ruolan hit the nail on the head; Master Lu Yin was indeed thinking about this very issue.

If the energy in vegetables is lost, then it's a waste!

Forget it, forget it, let's just cook them all today, one for each person so everyone can enjoy them to their heart's content!

Despite his reluctance, Master Lu Yin ultimately ordered the kitchen to cook all the remaining vegetables, showing his generosity.

Xia Wudi and Ma Dongcan exchanged a glance and grinned.

"Hey Lao Lu, when are you going to bring out that fruit wine elixir? Brother Ye is here, let's all have a drink!" Xia Wudi rubbed his hands and chuckled.

Master Lu Yin's face darkened, but he still waved his hand: "Little Jiu, go and get my treasured jar of fruit wine and spirit dew!"

Lu Jiu stood up and nodded: "Okay, Master. Um, if the vegetables come up, remember to save some for me!"

"Hurry up and go, you're making a fool of yourself!" Master Luyin scolded irritably.

A moment later, Lu Jiu came quickly with a wine jar in his hand. He seemed to breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that the vegetables had not yet been served.

Ye Chen could smell the faint fruity fragrance from a distance.

And let me tell you, the smell alone is quite nice; it has a refreshing and pleasant aroma.

Xia Wudi's throat bobbed, showing that he had indeed been thinking about this fruit wine spirit egret for a long time.

The ginseng from Ma Dong wasn't much better; it looked quite tempting.

These two old men who have reached the Golden Core stage have lived to a ripe old age, are knowledgeable and have incredibly high standards.

Something that can make two Golden Core cultivators crave must be quite good.

Ye Chen was also starting to look forward to it, after all, there were still many things he had never seen before.

Judging from Lao Lu's somewhat distressed expression, it's clear that this thing is quite rare.

"Brother Lu Yin, what's the story behind this wine? It smells strangely fragrant, it must be something special!" Ye Chen asked with a smile.

Master Lu Yin raised his chin slightly, a hint of vanity in his smile: "Brother Ye has excellent taste; this fruit wine and spirit dew is indeed extraordinary!"

"I only brought it out today because Brother Ye was here. Otherwise, I wouldn't even bother with those two old guys, Lao Xia and Lao Ma."

"This fruit wine spirit dew is made by me based on ancient texts, using various spirit fruits and spirit milk!"

"Although spiritual milk is something that can only be encountered by chance, at least some can be obtained at some large auctions."

"Spiritual fruits are not so easy to find; I've been searching for several of them for a full 10 years!"

"It's almost impossible to gather all these spiritual fruits now!"

Several types of spiritual fruits are now nearly extinct!

Master Lu Yin sighed as he spoke of this.

Ye Chen was slightly taken aback; this old man had real perseverance, searching for fruit for 10 years...

Ye Chen couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Brother Lu Yin is amazing. Many people can't even do that kind of perseverance. This fruit wine and spirit dew can be called a rare treasure in the world. I'm a little embarrassed to drink something so precious right away!"

Master Luyin smiled and waved his hand: "Since it's brewed, it's meant to be drunk; otherwise, even the best stuff is useless!"

Master Lu Yin took the wine jar from Lu Jiu and carefully removed the mud seal from it.

As he prepared it, he explained, "I've set up an array in this wine jar to prevent spiritual energy from leaking out. Once opened, the spiritual energy will dissipate quickly, so you must drink it all in one gulp. Of course, the aftereffects of the wine are also quite strong; if you get drunk, it can last for several days!"

Xia Wudi swallowed hard and grinned, "Hehe, Brother Ye, you have no idea, Old Lu really went all out this time. He gave us some before, but it was sold in bulk, just a small cup each. Tsk tsk, he was so stingy!"

Ma Dongcan nodded: "That's right, we've been eyeing this wine for ages, but he wouldn't bring it out. Brother Ye really has a lot of influence!"

Master Lu Yin curled his lip: "Before, we were just indulging in our appetites, drinking some of the leftover wine to savor the taste. This wine needs to be left for a long time to allow the medicinal properties of the spiritual fruit and dew to blend and achieve the best effect. Now the timing is just right, otherwise I wouldn't have brought it out!"

Ye Chen realized that this was the first time the jar of wine had been officially opened today. It turned out that they had only drunk some of the leftover scraps from the brewing process before!

Wow, these old men are taking this so seriously, then the value of this wine is beyond question!

The young men stared wide-eyed at the jar of wine.

Ye Chen couldn't help but feel excited!

Ye Chen had never seen spiritual fruits before and had no idea about their effects, but he was quite familiar with spiritual milk.

This Master Luyin actually used spiritual milk to brew wine, how incredibly amazing!

Anyway, if it were Ye Chen, he definitely wouldn't do that; he would just eat the old ginseng directly...

Master Lu Yin stopped what he was doing and looked at Ma Dongcan: "Old Ma, where's your thousand-year-old wild ginseng? You're not pretending to have forgotten, are you?"

Ma Dongcan's face twitched, and he said awkwardly, "Me? Am I that kind of person? I carry it with me everywhere!"

"Then what are you waiting for? Take it out! Fruit wine with ginseng, the effect will definitely be maximized!" Master Lu Yin urged.

Xia Wudi rubbed his hands and nodded, "That's right, that's right, if we're going to replenish our strength, we should replenish it all at once. If our strength reaches a higher level, that would be a great thing!"

"You old Xia, you didn't bring anything, all you do is yell!" Ma Dongcan rolled his eyes.

Xia Wudi shamelessly declared, "I won at Dou Dizhu!"

Both Master Luyin and Ma Dongcan were speechless.

Without further ado, Ma Dongcan produced a large gift box over a meter long as if by magic.

Unlike ordinary gift boxes, this large box is actually made from a single piece of jade.

Ye Chen's eyes were opened; this jade box alone was probably priceless.

This was the first time he had ever seen ginseng packaged in such a large jade box!

What makes this thousand-year-old wild ginseng so special compared to a hundred-year-old ginseng?

Or is it just a larger radish, as the foreigner said?
