Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 1415: Chapter 1416: Making Money by Refining Medicine

Lin Chen lost several times in a row, but each time he only lost five hundred. After losing a total of two thousand Baijiao coins, he seemed to have made a big decision and said, ”I’ll go all-in on this one, betting on small.”

The female croupier was secretly delighted to see this guy finally going all-in.

But when she opened the lid again, she was dumbfounded — it was small again.

”How is this possible?” The female croupier frowned tightly.

She suddenly realized that this kid was simply amazing. Every time he went all-in, he almost always hit the mark, and every time he lost, it was with the minimum bet, as if he could foresee the dice points inside the lid.

In the following rounds, Lin Chen lost six times and won twice, with his final bet becoming over three hundred thousand.

This was because Lin Chen was deliberately losing to avoid drawing attention. If he went all-in every time, it would attract too much attention.

Despite this, Lin Chen still drew a lot of attention from the gamblers, and when he decided to go all-in, almost everyone focused on Lin Chen, ready to follow his bet.

The female croupier was feeling overwhelmed and was sweating.

”No, it looks like I need to bring in an expert,” she said, wiping her sweat.

Although Lin Chen’s winnings were not much, only over three hundred thousand, he was too uncanny. Almost every time he went all-in, it was as if he could see through the dice inside the lid. If everyone followed his bets, wouldn’t they lose terribly...?

When Lin Chen’s hand went to small, the crowd also prepared to place their chips on small.

However, Lin Chen pulled back his hand and placed it on big, and the crowd followed him to big.

Lin Chen sighed, ”Forget it, I’m done playing, I feel like my luck is about used up for today. If I play more, I’ll probably lose.”

Amid the sounds of disappointment from the crowd, Lin Chen stood up.

The female croupier had already been pressing the alarm button but relaxed when she saw Lin Chen stand up.

Lin Chen knew that in a casino, nobody cares how much you lose, but if you win too much, you’ll certainly attract attention from the casino. Over three hundred thousand, the casino can still tolerate; if you’re too greedy and win too much money, the casino might not let you leave so easily.

Over three hundred thousand was enough for their expenses for the next few days and to buy medicine.

After cashing in the chips, Lin Chen had the casino staff transfer the money directly to his gold card and then left.

”Lin Chen, you’re truly a gambling god, I’m really impressed. Can you actually see the dice points inside?” Zhang Yu asked curiously.

”Didn’t I say I’m a gambling god? Naturally, I can win every time,” Lin Chen replied confidently.

At this moment, Mike snorted coldly, ”You’re just super good at hearing, judging the final points from the sound of the dice landing.”

Lin Chen didn’t refute Mike’s words. Since Mike had found him a reasonable explanation, Lin Chen naturally wouldn’t argue.

Lin Chen found a hotel, and after settling everyone in, he himself left the hotel.

”Excuse me, where can I buy herbal medicine here?” Lin Chen asked a hotel attendant as he walked to the hotel entrance.

”Herbs, you can check out Huichuntang, it’s the largest pharmacy in Baijiao City. As long as you have money, you can buy all kinds of rare herbs there,” the attendant replied.

Lin Chen thanked the attendant and headed in the direction of Huichuntang.

Following the bustling streets, Lin Chen noticed that the public security here was significantly better, unlike in Baiyu City, where there were scenes of fighting and killing everywhere.

After about twenty minutes, Lin Chen finally arrived in front of an ancient-styled building with three large characters written powerfully above: ”Huichuntang.”

”It turns out to be run by Chinese people,” Lin Chen said as he approached the entrance of the pharmacy, immediately enveloped by the strong aroma of herbs.

Inside the pharmacy, rows of small wooden boxes were placed, each labeled with the name of the herb.

There were quite a few customers, some buying medicine, others selling, and it was very noisy.

Lin Chen glanced at the cabinets storing the herbs and couldn’t help but be slightly stunned.

The medicine here was indeed very comprehensive, even some treasures that are hard to find in Chinese herbal stores.

It seemed that Huichuntang indeed lived up to its reputation, managing to gather so many precious herbs.

However, upon seeing the prices at Huichuntang, Lin Chen was secretly astonished.

The herbs here were extremely expensive, each one costing four or five times the price outside.

After paying for accommodation and food, Lin Chen still had two hundred thousand in funds.

Thinking for a moment, he decided to buy some low-grade herbs first, make some pills, and sell them at an auction, then use the auction money to try and bid for the Tianyuan crystal.

The Tianyuan crystal had already been placed in the auction by Sun Chao, so outright robbery was impossible. The only option was to find a way to win the bid.

As for that scoundrel, as long as he dared to show up at the auction, Lin Chen was confident he could catch him.

Although Lin Chen only purchased some low-grade herbs, he still spent all of his two hundred thousand savings.

Seeing the hard-earned money vanish in an instant, Lin Chen couldn’t help but feel a pang of heartache.

Now, aside from maintaining their daily expenses for the next two days, Lin Chen had no money left.

Back at the hotel, the group was about to eat.

Alice picked up the menu and ordered ten dishes directly.

Lin Chen’s face nearly turned green after seeing that these few dishes cost over thirty thousand.

”Wait a minute, waiter, we don’t want these dishes, just give each of us a fried rice,” Lin Chen said awkwardly.

”What fried rice?” Alice was immediately unhappy.

”Lin Chen, what do you mean? I’m helping you guys with a mission, and you’re being so stingy as to make me eat fried rice?”

Lin Chen was speechless, ”Sister, if we eat like this, we’ll be sleeping on the street tomorrow. It’s a tough time, let’s stick it out for now, and when we get back, I’ll cook you a feast myself, okay?”

”Alright, but you said it, don’t go back on your word,” Alice relented when she heard Lin Chen would personally cook for her.

The meal was very frugal, while the table next to them was filled with lavish dishes, they could only eat fried rice.

Back in the room, Lin Chen took out all the herbs he had bought and then retrieved the medicine cauldron.

Although Lin Chen could use fire to refine medicine, this was, after all, a hotel. It wouldn’t be good to burn things here.

Lin Chen flicked his finger lightly, and a five-colored spark was shot into the medicine cauldron. A flame flickering with five colors began to burn inside.

Then, Lin Chen tossed all the herbs he had bought into the cauldron, and soon the herbs were melted by the flame, becoming a powder that started to blend together.

Lin Chen had given his five-colored fire a nice name, calling it the Five-Colored Glazed Flame.

He found that using the Five-Colored Glazed Flame to refine medicine was many times more effective than ordinary fire.
