The First Heir Chapter 5266
Although Philip mentioned before that he would auction some things, it never happened, so everyone gradually lost interest. Now that the door was open, Jeff did not make a commotion but ran over and looked inside expectantly. He saw Aslan busy at work and Philip instructing him. Although Jeff did not recognize Aslan, he knew Philip! “Shopkeeper, are you open for business? I’ve been waiting for ages!” Jeff said excitedly. Philip recognized this man who had bought a storage ring previously. He observed Jeff and found that his demeanor had changed. This guy looked very dejected when Philip first met him, but he was in high spirits now. More importantly, Jeff’s luck seemed different. “It’s been a while. You look a lot better,” Philip said in delight. He could tell that Jeff was a nice person. “Yeah, it’s been a while. I’m doing very well now. Are you open for business? Can I buy something?” Jeff could not put the storage ring out of his mind. The ring had helped him a lot

In summary, all the missing money was Vance’s fault, and Jeff, the real perpetrator, had nothing to do with it. “Your son is so smart that he squandered all the family’s money!” “Tell us how you spent the money! How did you spend so much money in two weeks?” “If you refuse to tell us, we’ll kick you out!” The Cod family members shouted angrily, certain that Vance was the thief. Vance was about to curse these unreasonable people when he recalled that his bodyguards were no longer around. To save money, they fired all the bodyguards. He had to think twice before doing anything now. He and his mother were two people against more than a dozen on the opposite side. The other party looked aggressive and ready to kill. After much deliberation, Vance had no choice but to contain his anger. “You guys are so annoying!” Vance grumbled under his breath, not daring to speak out loud. He knew that he would be dead if he offended them. “I spent the money to buy things from Philip!”

Vance stared at Jeff, shocked to hear this remark from him. “Jeff, you son of a bitch! How dare you speak to me like that?! You have no right to meddle in the Cod family’s affairs! You’re nothing but a slave!” The more Vance cursed, the happier Jeff felt.… While the Cod family was in chaos, Philip welcomed a mysterious guest, who was none other than Niffler. He went to Comet City, but his trip was ruined because of the beasts. Now that the incident was over, Niffler returned to Cosmo City, but Scarlet was nowhere to be found. He doubted Scarlet chose to run away and blamed everything on the mayor. He had heard some rumors in the past two days about a charming woman by the mayor’s side. Niffler thought the mayor took Scarlet because of her beauty. “Do you want to make a deal with me?” Niffler was dressed in black and stood in a dark corner staring at Philip. Philip was amused by his attempt to look mysterious. When Niffler first flipped over the wall and into the yard,

“You don't have to worry about that. Just let me know if you’re willing to work with me,” Niffler said arrogantly. “Let me think about it.” Philip did not agree immediately. This was risky business. Although Philip was not afraid, he was unwilling to take risks for others. Niffler allowed half a day for Philip to think about it before leaving the store. Philip smiled as Niffler left. He was curious about Niffler.… While Cosmo City was in chaos, Alton made an exciting announcement. He took the initiative to hold a large-scale pill-making contest, seemingly wanting to boost the morale of his citizens. The reward was very impressive. As news spread, Philip heard about it. He was surprised by the reward given by the other party. “Not bad. This guy actually has sunflower seeds.” Philip was amazed. This sunflower was quite extraordinary, not at all like the sunflowers in his original world. This flower was oriented toward the sun, grew only in extremely hot places, and had

With a bright smile on his face, the guard respectfully handed something to Philip. “Mr. Clarke, our mayor wants to invite you to be a judge for the pill-making contest. May I know if you're free?” The guard handed a fancy invitation card to Philip. Philip did not refuse. He wanted to take this opportunity to get to know the alchemists in this world. “Tell your mayor that I agree. I’ll be there on time,” Philip said casually and sent the guard away. The guard nodded solemnly and sneaked a peek inside the store. After confirming that there was nothing for sale, he left in disappointment. The guard wanted to take this opportunity to see if he could buy something, but the shelves were empty. Cosmo City was quite well known. When the pill-making contest was announced, the news spread like wildfire. Almost all the surrounding cities knew about it, and their young and promising alchemists could not wait to go to Cosmo City with their luggage. The sunflower seed was very ent

Everyone gathered in the square, and outsiders stayed comfortably in nearby inns. Alton grinned brightly at the tax records during this time. Outsiders had to spend money on food, clothing, accommodation, and transportation. This event greatly boosted the economy of Cosmo City. Besides that, it gave the Cod family some breathing room while they were on the brink of collapse. While the Cod family took a breather, Alton raked in a fortune. As a judge, Philip visited the venue on the eve of the contest. Just as he got familiar with the venue and was ready to leave, he heard someone grumbling next to him. “Why are these people so excited over this contest? They even forced me to come here so many days in advance!” Philip glanced over curiously upon hearing this childish voice. He saw a very young kid. The kid acted quite maturely, with his hands behind his back as he complained, “It’s just a small contest, nothing worth worrying about. Winning first place is a walk in the p

Philip could not deny that the kid was capable. After examining the pill in his hand, Philip thought the kid was pretty good. Although inferior to his students, he should be one of the best on this continent. Philip had never heard of this kid, but he forgot about the matter when he went home. The next day, all the contestants gathered at the square. The square was very crowded, and everyone looked forward to the start of the contest. As for the contestants, they looked at the ordinary practitioners in disdain.Practitioners were divided into different categories. Ordinary practitioners were only good at fighting, the lowest level of practitioners. Practitioners with skills, like them, were different. Alchemists and weaponsmiths had a distinguished status, enjoying preferential treatment no matter where they went. More importantly, they earned a lot of money and were quite powerful. Other than a possible slight disadvantage at combat, other aspects could be made up with pills

The practitioners seemed very curious about these stories. They listened with great interest and exclaimed in surprise from time to time. Custard and the other kid were disdainful and seemed impatient. After some time, Alton finally stopped. Philip was almost dozing off. Alton’s speech was better than a hypnotic spell, putting Philip to sleep easily. “Okay, the level-five alchemist that everyone has been waiting for has arrived. I hope everyone can do their best and see if you can catch the eye of this alchemist! Maybe you guys will have a chance to become his apprentice!” Alton's words caused a stir, and everyone whispered in excitement. Everyone wanted the chance to become an alchemist’s apprentice. They listened so seriously just now because they wanted to leave a good impression on the other party. However, Chaplin didn't pay attention to the crowd because he was focused on Philip. Chaplin had never seen such an arrogant man in his life. Philip was the first person wh
