Banners were actually put up in the school, such as "Welcome the school team athletes to return with honor to the new college to promote", "Congratulations to the school team for advancing to the top eight of the Psychic Food Academy", etc. This festive energy does not look like being promoted to the top eight, but rather
It's like winning a championship.
Bai Xiaowen can understand after thinking about it. Jinghai University has been waiting for so long in the uaa league, so that even a place in the top eight is like taking a huge advantage.
Walking on campus, Bai Xiaowen is really known to everyone. Even several other members of the school team, such as Li Shuyi, Xiang Hui, etc., have become famous figures on campus.
But Bai Xiaowen didn't care about this. Returning to Taoranju, his life once again returned to a busy and fulfilling rhythm.
Routine training, live streaming, making potions, collecting information about ancient Egyptian civilization...
Time flies by quickly, and it’s Friday again in a blink of an eye. There are only two days left before Sunday’s game.
Tao Ran lives inside.
"Huh..." Bai Xiaowen stretched, "The new batch of potions has been made. I'll deliver them to the pharmacy."
Li Shuyi, who was doing yoga next to her, was wearing body-shaping clothes and doing a difficult yoga movement. The body-shaping clothes perfectly outlined her bumpy figure. When she heard Bai Xiaowen speak, she stopped her movements:
"I'll go with you. I just received a call. Dad asked us to go home for a meal together..."
Suddenly, a beeping sound sounded. This time it was Bai Xiaowen's cell phone.
"Hey, it's Master Sun from the pharmacy. I guess he's calling to ask about the pharmacy..." Bai Xiaowen answered the phone.
"Hello? Master Sun... Well, the potion is ready, I'm about to send it over... What, there's one more thing? You said... ah? Oh, I see..."
Bai Xiaowen hung up the phone.
Li Shuyi, who was changing clothes, poked her head out of the back of the room curiously: "What's wrong? What's going on?"
"Nothing's wrong, someone I've seen is looking for me..."
From this angle, Bai Xiaowen could just see a section of Li Shuyi's fair neck. He felt itchy in his heart and shamelessly walked over: "Let me help you put it on..."
Li Shuyi usually wears clothes with her neck exposed, and the part below the neck is also invisible, but somehow, with half of her head exposed now, it is easier for Bai Xiaowen to have wild thoughts.
Li Shuyi repeatedly refused: "Go, go, if you help me get dressed, I will miss dinner." She closed the door with a bang.
Bai Xiaowen touched his nose and smiled. He labeled the potion and put it in a special portable lockbox. After a while, Li Shuyi changed her clothes and came out. The two of them drove all the way and soon arrived at the Super Potion in Chihuo District.
shop.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw Sun Hecheng. It seemed that he had been waiting after talking on the phone.
"Master Sun, this batch of potions are all here." Bai Xiaowen handed over the portable password box and then gave Sun Hecheng a piece of code paper.
"Okay..." Sun Hecheng nodded.
"The one who's looking for me...named Qiao Qi, where is he?"
"Well, I'm just sitting at the front desk hooking up with a little girl..." Sun Hecheng shrugged, "At least there's no trouble."
Bai Xiaowen looked over and saw Qiao Qi, the young man who killed Matt in the second grade.
To Bai Xiaowen's surprise, Qiao Qi's hair color turned normal. It used to be as colorful as a big dye shop, but now it's all black. No wonder Bai Xiaowen didn't notice him at first...
Qiao Qi also saw Bai Xiaowen and quickly raised his hand to greet: "Brother Bai, this way!"
"Well……"
Bai Xiaowen was a little uncomfortable with being called so enthusiastically.
Sun Hecheng picked up the password box and patted Bai Xiaowen on the shoulder: "Go and deal with it. This guy seems to have come to you for something serious." After that, he left the front hall.
Bai Xiaowen shook his head helplessly and sat face to face with Qiao Qi.
"You're looking for me? Something's wrong?"
"Of course, otherwise why would I come all the way here..." Qiao Qi suddenly realized something in the middle of her words and coughed, "Well... I'm used to talking casually, don't mind..."
"..." Bai Xiaowen felt it was necessary to see if the sun was coming out of the west.
"If you have anything to do, just say it directly." Bai Xiaowen decided to go straight to the point.
Qiao Qi changed his expression to a solemn expression, as if he was taking an oath to join the party: "Um... Comrade Bai Xiaowen, I now formally invite you to participate in the 18th International Pharmacist Exchange Conference..."
"International Pharmacists...Exchange Conference?" Bai Xiaowen was stunned. This is not the same as the other. Qiao Qi and the International Pharmacists Conference are incompatible with each other.
Qiao Qi nodded and confirmed: "Yes... this is a good thing."
"That's right." The voice of the old store manager Zhang next to him sounded. Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi immediately stood up and greeted the store manager Zhang Jing who had just arrived.
Qiao Qi was originally sitting, but after thinking about it, he also stood up, but his expression was a little awkward.
"I heard you arrived, so I came over to take a look." Zhang Jing, the old store manager, now really regards Bai Xiaowen as a rare treasure. Even if Qiao Qi doesn't come, he will come to see this living sign, not to mention Qiao Qi.
Qi has a criminal record, and store manager Zhang is afraid that Bai Xiaowen will start a fight again if he is young and energetic...
After Zhang Jingjing nodded, he continued: "The International Pharmacist Exchange Conference is a grand event in the pharmacist circle. People in the circle, including major trade unions, pay a lot of attention to it, no less than ordinary people pay to the Super Bowl.
...Xiaobai, you are only relatively famous in the Jianghai area of China. If you can make a splash at the Pharmacist Exchange Conference, your global reputation will definitely rise. However, it stands to reason that you cannot appear in such a conference...
"
Qiao Qi found Zhang Jing very pleasing to her eyes and added: "My family has a recommendation qualification that allows Brother Bai to participate in the young pharmacists' exhibition competition."
"Youth group competition?" Bai Xiaowen thought for a while, "Can I participate in the senior group... oh no, master group competition?"
Zhang Jing said with a smile: "The conference only has competitions for the youth group, which is a stage for the new generation of pharmacists to show off their achievements. The long-established pharmacy masters will not participate in the competition. They will only serve as judges. The masters will participate in the conference, mainly as judges.
For academic exchanges, such as reading pharmaceutical papers, publishing improved formulas developed by oneself, etc..."
"Oh." Bai Xiaowen realized that he had made a mistake.
"When is this game?" Bai Xiaowen asked Qiao Qi.
"There are about twenty days until the 10th of next month." Qiao Qi said.
"Really? Then I'd better not go..." Bai Xiaowen shook his head. He was too busy recently and couldn't get away. "On the 10th of next month, uaa hasn't been finished yet."
"Well... give me some face?" Qiao Qi scratched her hair, "Let me do the math for you. The uaa finals will be after the 10th of next month. In other words, if you are eliminated before then, the time will be
No more conflict... Uh, that's not what I meant..."
Seeing that Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi looked at her a little strangely, Qiao Qi quickly changed her mind, "Then, if you enter the finals, you should also compete in the capital, right? This Pharmacist Conference is held in the capital of China.
Don’t delay your game..."
"Wait a minute, there should be many young pharmacists concerned about this recommendation qualification, right? Why are you here..." This can no longer be described as a hot potato. Qiao Qi's attitude is just like that of a pregnant beauty looking for a suitor, anxious.
Unbearable.
"Ahem...Okay, I'll confess..."
Qiao Qi knew that she couldn't hide it from Bai Xiaowen, so she had no choice but to tell the truth.
Because the pharmacist industry is closely related to awakened people, it is definitely a popular subject in the era of psychic energy. The youth group exhibition competition of the International Pharmacist Exchange Conference seems to have the word "performance", but it is actually the new generation of pharmacists from various countries.
The level of attention in the arena for competing for honors is comparable to that of the Olympic Games in the AD era, and it is even more intense.
The reason is very simple. There are 302 gold medals in the Olympic Games. If you cannot compete in this event, you can win the championship in the next event.
But in the Young Pharmacist Exhibition Competition, there is only one first place, and everyone wants to get a top ranking.
There are many young pharmacists in China, and their overall level is not bad. Among them are five young pharmacists who have won many international medals at a young age. They are also the benchmark for the new generation of pharmacists in China and have been awarded the title of "Five Little Whites of the Central Plains"
title.
In the pharmacist industry, only "masters" assessed by the S Association are qualified to wear white robes, so "Xiaobai" means "little master". This title really places the public's expectations on these five young pharmacists.
"This..." Bai Xiaowen didn't have time to complain about this funny title, and asked: "Isn't this pretty good? With five...five Xiaobai here, China's ranking this time will be stable."
Qiao Qi said angrily: "You know... Hammer, one of the five novices from the Central Plains has defected."
"Defection?"
"To use a more fashionable word, it's called 'naturalization'," Qiao Qi's disdain was palpable, "Huang Xuan, one of the five little whites, was naturalized Fusang, and is now a new generation of pharmacists in the island country."
"Then we have four more here." Bai Xiaowen said.
"Huang Xuan is the most powerful among the five little whites..." Qiao Qi said, "That's why I want to invite you to participate. If you can beat Huang Xuan, you will definitely become famous around the world and you will be super awesome.
The pharmacy will also benefit from it!"
I have to say that Qiao Qi's two sentences are still very good.
"Understood," Bai Xiaowen looked at Qiao Qi, "last question. Why did you mention this to me? Shouldn't the official come forward for this kind of thing? Can you represent it?"
Qiao Qi scratched her hair: "Actually, I just contacted you privately... My grandpa doesn't know that I have found you yet. However, grandpa has learned about your information. If you are willing to compete, he will definitely agree.
!”
Bai Xiaowen finally understood that Qiao Qi turned out to be acting secretly. This third-generation official, who was a bit of a middle-class official, wanted to gain some credit in front of his elders...
"I would like to ask if your...grandfather is the one from the Government Affairs Council..." Zhang Jing whispered his name.
Qiao Qi nodded: "Yes, don't you know?"
"He is actually the grandson of Duke Qiao..." Bai Xiaowen and Zhang Jing looked at each other, thinking about Duke Qiao, and then looking at Qiao Qi in front of them, both of them felt a kind of father-in-law and son-in-law at the same time... Oh no, it should be
It’s called the emotion of Lord Tiger and his grandson.
"Is this matter important to Mr. Qiao?" Bai Xiaowen asked with a frown. Even if the International Pharmacist Exchange Conference was important, the dignified senior officials of the Central Government Affairs Council would not personally question one of the participating candidates.
Qiao Qi hesitated for a moment, and then said: "The defector... has something to do with my family."
Qiao Qi was unwilling to elaborate on the specific situation. Bai Xiaowen frowned and thought about it, and he had several guesses about it.
No matter which guess is more accurate, one thing Bai Xiaowen can be sure of. Mr. Qiao attaches great importance to this pharmacist exchange conference and hopes that there are young talents in the country who can surpass Huang Xuan. If Huang Xuan gets the first prize
One...the reputation of Mr. Qiao and the Qiao family may be affected.
Bai Xiaowen glanced at Qiao Qi again.
It is undeniable that after knowing that Mr. Qiao is Qiao Qi's grandfather, Bai Xiaowen's opinion of Qiao Qi has improved a lot. This is not snobbery, but because Mr. Qiao has helped Bai Xiaowen. No matter what the reason is, Bai Xiaowen
Remember this level of affection.
In addition, Qiao Qi, apart from the first time they met, compared with Zhong Er Kill Matt, the two subsequent times they met, including this time, were considered to have made progress, and they obviously respected Bai Xiaowen a lot. Bai Xiaowen's impression score of Qiao Qi improved.
It's also normal.
After calculating the specific date in his mind, Bai Xiaowen nodded: "I agree to participate."
"Really, that's great!" Qiao Qi said excitedly.
"But what you said doesn't count," Bai Xiaowen said with a shrug, "That so-called recommendation qualification...do you think it will work?"
Qiao Qi chuckled and said, "Don't worry about it... Well, I'll let my sister do it! Among the younger generation, my sister is the most liked by the old man."
"Leave a phone number and contact me if you have any confidence." Bai Xiaowen was still skeptical about Qiao Qi's ability to do things.
After leaving his contact information, Qiao Qi happily left Chaoshen Pharmacy, not even trying to flirt with the girl at the front desk.
"It's rare that this second-generation ancestor can also do business for the family." Zhang Jing chuckled.
"Old store manager, have you noticed that Qiao Qi has changed a lot, such as his hairstyle...could it be that he has changed his gender?" Bai Xiaowen still remembered Qiao Qi's colorful and sexy look.
"Well, I noticed it," Zhang Jing nodded, "I don't know if he has changed his gender...but one thing is for sure, he is probably going to meet his elders..."
"Is that so?" Bai Xiaowen was slightly startled, then nodded: "It's really possible."
"This matter is an opportunity. As Qiao Qi said, if you can make a splash at the International Pharmacist Conference, it will be of great benefit to you. If Super Pharmacy follows suit, it will also usher in a very good development.
An opportunity. What's more, we can use this to build a relationship with the Qiao Gong family..." Zhang Jing pondered and said, "Do you want to rely on connections? The number of referrals in each country is limited, and it must be very precious."
"No, I don't want to take the initiative to get close to the Qiao family..." Bai Xiaowen shook his head and said, "In fact, I am helping them in this matter, and it is also to return a favor to Mr. Qiao. As for the reputation I have gained in the pharmacist industry,
Actually, I don’t care much. If Qiao Qi can win this spot, I will participate. If not, I will be free and can spare my energy to deal with the uaa finals."
