Chapter 60

When Harris heard how Brody addressed him, he frowned. Then, he gazed at the excited Brody in front of him. With a deep voice, he spoke.

“Brody, how many times have I told you? I no longer desire to take on apprentices, so don’t waste your time anymore and please leave. I don’t want to see you again.”

On the other hand, Brody, with no sign of disappointment on his face, instead wore a smile and spoke.

“Master Myers, whether you accept me or not, I don’t really mind! Today, I’m here to tell you something.

“It’s just that I’ve found something good, and I’d like to offer it to you.”

With that, Brody slowly placed the box that the dead Wayne had given him at the pharmacy on Harris’s desk. Then, he slowly opened the box’s lid.

A peculiar fragrance wafted from the box immediately.

Actually, Harris had initially intended to decline, but the scent entered his nostrils, leaving him momentarily stunned.

He immediately bent down to examine it.

The next moment, Harris’s pupils displayed a look of shock, and he exclaimed.

“What? Is this wild coptis herb? Oh my god!”

“Master Myers, you have a sharp eye!” At this time, Brody seized the opportunity to praise Harris.

He looked at Harris with a knowing smile. It seemed that things were going to go smoothly then.

Harris donned a pair of pale gloves and glasses seemingly conjured out of thin air.

He delicately lifted the coptis herb from the box and examined it closely.

As time passed, his expression of amazement became even more pronounced, and he exclaimed.

“This is pure, natural, and wild coptis herb?

“And judging by its quality, it’s been preserved for at least fifty years?”

“What? Fifty years?”

Brody was slightly taken aback by Harris’s words.

He remembered that Wayne had told him at the Bailey Pharmacy that the coptis herb was only twenty years old.

Of course, Brody knew that Harris’s eyesight was much better than the pharmacists in the Bailey Pharmacy. Observing Harris’s current demeanor, Brody felt assured, and the smile on his face became even more pronounced.

It seemed like his chances of becoming Harris’s apprentice today had just improved a bit more.

Then, he added fuel to the fire and spoke.
