Ning Shaohong, who had been smiling, was startled.
She had not expected Wei Shiqin to be so generous. Tongbao Pavilion's VIP Tokens were exceptionally precious.
Only after she had known this woman for over a year and become fairly close to her had she received a VIP Token from her.
Yet Wei Shiqin had given one to Ning Fa the moment they met.
But she quickly understood. This woman was not doing it entirely for her sake.
She must have sensed Ning Fa's potential in alchemy from the Essence Replenishing Pills, Spring Return Pills, and Qi Replenishing Pills he had provided earlier.

Their quality far surpassed ordinary pills, and their medicinal potency was naturally far purer as well.
With this woman's shrewdness, she had naturally seen it all. Otherwise, she would not have taken the initiative to raise Ning Fa's compensation before.
Even if it had not happened this time, she likely would have asked Ning Shaohong to introduce Ning Fa to her sooner or later.
Alchemists were highly respected even within the Xudong Merchant Guild, especially pill refiners with great potential.

If Ning Fa became a high-grade alchemist in the future, it would be much easier to establish a deeper cooperative relationship.
