Chapter 1896
Ling Yu didn't blame Wan Shitong, and greeted him: "Brother, don't worry, eat first, don't worry if you can't buy the recipe for alchemy, I have a place to learn!"
While Ling Yu was eating, he told Wan Shitong about Qinglong Academy's recruitment of alchemy students.
"I'll sign up tomorrow. If I get first place, I can learn alchemy without spending any money!"
Even if she didn't get first place, Ling Yu thought she could earn 50,000 silver for tuition by selling a few prescriptions, so she didn't take it to heart.
"Brother, there are two master classes to choose from when you sign up. I don't know which master to choose. You can help me find out their character tomorrow!"
When Wan Shitong heard that the alchemist from Baibaotang and Shang Gutang was the master, he said without saying a word: "No need to ask, choose the class of Master Shang Gutang!"
"Why?" Ling Yu asked curiously.
Wan Shitong sneered: "Those people in Baibao Medicine Hall have eyes on the top of their heads, and no one can look down on them! Because behind their medicine hall is King Long Jiaming's wife!"
"Relying on this relationship, Baibaotang works hard to lower the price when purchasing medicinal materials. Even when encountering rare medicinal materials, they even do some shady things, killing people and robbing medicinal materials!"
"Just think about the fact that those rare medicinal materials are collected at the risk of their lives. What's the difference between them and bandits?"
Ling Yu was a doctor herself and knew the hard work of collecting medicines. As soon as she heard this, she rejected Baibaotang.
"What about Shang Gutang?"
Wan Shitong smiled and said: "This Shanggutang is very fair. No matter who sells the medicinal materials, they are honest. Their main family is the Ye family."
"The Ye family is the largest among the major families except the Long family. Their great-grandfather is the founder of Shang Gutang, and the family rules are the rules of Shanggutang."
"To be fair among the big families, the Ye family deserves it!"
As Wan Shitong said something, he remembered something and said happily: "Brother, if Ye Songcheng, the great alchemist of the Ye family, teaches him personally, then you will make a profit!"
"But I thought it couldn't be him, because this old man hasn't appeared for more than ten years!"
"If he is still alive, then even the great alchemist of Baibao Hall is not worthy of carrying his boots. He is the real god-level figure in the alchemy world!"
"It is said that no one can surpass him for two hundred years!"
Ling Yu heard what Wan Shitong said was so miraculous, and she became more determined to join Shang Gutang.
His enemy is so powerful, and only by studying with a powerful master can he have a chance to avenge his son who died unjustly.
Ling Yu thought for a while and then said: "Brother, I have something to tell you. I...I want to go to Qinglong College to study as a woman!"
"Brother, you have already guessed that I am not a man, but a woman, right?"
Wan Shitong blushed and awkwardly nodded before nodding.
He travels all over the country and never sees anyone. When Ling Yu lived with him on a boat and shared two rooms, Wan Shitong suspected that this slender boy might be a woman.
Later, he paid more attention and observed, and the more he looked at Ling Yu, the more she looked like a woman.
Therefore, Ling Yu didn't need to talk about the rest of the trip. He also silently treated Ling Yu the same way he treated women. He would never let Ling Yu do more things that he could do for himself.
Seeing that Ling Yu had said it himself, Wan Shitong quickly said: "Little sister, it doesn't matter to me whether you are a man or a woman. You are all my brothers and sisters. Big brother will not blame you!"
"Brother originally wanted to persuade you to go to Qinglong College as a woman. After all, the men in that place are quite capable. If you are seen through by them, you will be in a lot of trouble!"
"It's more convenient to go there as a woman. After all, it's a school run by the royal family, and men don't dare to cause trouble for you."
Ling Yu thought this way, it was unavoidable to go to the latrine in the school.
She used to show up as a man because she was worried about the reward order, but when she arrived at the school, as long as she was careful and changed her appearance, no one would suspect that she was Ling Yu's.
