A Mortal's Medicinal Elixirs
Chapter 111 An Admonition From a Wise Master
William was stunned by Theodore's question. Are there immortals in the world? I'm not entirely sure, but the Way of Heaven and Earth is divided into four major realms, Divine, Deity, Demigod, and Mortal. Among them, the Demigod realm is often referred to as human immortals, and the Deity realm as earth immortals. Would they count as immortalst
After some thought, William replied, "There are those whose cultivation has reached a level where they can move undetected and effortlessly take lives with a mere thought. So, it's possible to consider them as immortals."
Theodore looked at William. "So, would a person who can foresee my future for the next few decades at a glance be considered immortal?"
William pondered for a moment before answering, "It's possible. For example, there's a person named Shane Crawford in Howard City that can also do that."
Theodore shook his head. "No! That wise master gave me several predictions about things that would happen to me at the ages of 27, 39, and 52. Each time, he was incredibly accurate, and if I hadn't followed his advice, my family wouldn't be where it is today."
William said lightly, "Old Mr. Lloyd. If you want my assistance, it's best to be truthful with me and not conceal anything. I can sense that you are in a difficult situation."
Theodore sighed heavily. "I am now at my wits' end!"
After a pause, he explained the cause and effect of the matter to William.
Sixty years ago, Theodore was a young man in his twenties and prime. He hailed from a small village with no background or education but possessed a passionate heart and a strong will.
In the beginning, he worked in a factory with a low income and was frequently bullied by the foreman, which made him feel very aggrieved.
As he was walking in the park after work one day, he met a well-dressed middle- aged man. That middle-aged man had a refined appearance and a friendly face. He even took the initiative to greet Theodore.
After chatting for a while, Theodore was impressed by the middle-aged man's extensive knowledge and wisdom. Eventually, the middle-aged man became serious and said, "Young man, it's fate that brought us together. I want to help you become rich and powerful!"
Theodore was surprised. "Help me become rich and powerful?"
The middle-aged man said, "That's right! From now on, you will follow my instructions, and I guarantee you will achieve great success!"
Although skeptical, Theodore quif his job the next day and started a business with only 30 Igneus Talons. With the guidance of the middle-aged man, they went to the countryside to collect antiques.
During that time, the countryside was abundant with valuable items, and the prices were very cheap. With 30 Igneus Talons, Theodore purchased over 300 antiques. Throughout that period, the middle-aged mant taught him various techniqués for appraising antiques.
Theodore was a quick learner and soon developed his unique insights. With the help of the middle-aged

An item worth 15 bucks was sold for 1500 bucks. Back then, a worker's annual income was only a few hundred bucks, so 1500 was a hefty sum.
Afterward, Theodore used the 1500 bucks and the remaining antiques as capital to gradually expand his business in the antique and curio circle. During that time, he acquired a large number of amique curiosities and rapidly accumulated wealth.
The middle-aged man left six months later, leaving behind a letter that warned Theodore about three major life decisions he would face at the ages of 27, 39, and 52. If he made the wrong choices, he would risk losing everything he had gained.
Sure enough, when Theodore turned 27, he brought 45 thousand in cash to collect items in the mountains with a friend. He had already seen many valuable things before, and if the deal went well, he could make at least a few hundred thousand. So, he was very excited about this deal.
However, when the car approached the village entrance, he discovered the village was called Ancient Well Village. He suddenly remembered a sentence in the letter. "Avoid the well at all costs."
Did the letter refer to this village? He was shocked and forced the driver to turn around and flee as quickly as possible despite his friend's objections.
Later, Theodore discovered that the village was home to a group of vicious bandits who used antique curiosities to lure wealthy buyers into making deals, only to rob and kill them. Before he arrived, three wealthy buyers had been murdered by the bandits.
Later, the case was solved. Eight bandits were killed on the spot, while three others were executed by a firing squad.
After that incident, his belief in the middle-aged man's advice grew even
stronger.
When Theodore turned 39, he faced another major decision. A local tycoon, Logan Kennedy, had offended a powerful figure, lost the lawsuit, and went bankrupt overnight. His vast assets were being auctioned off.
During that tumultuous time, no one was willing to take over. However, Theodore remembered the middle-aged man's advice. "When you meet with fortune, buy
it."
Theodore was tempted but lacked the capital to make the purchase. He
borrowed from various sources and took out a mortgage loan from the bank. Eventually, he raised 150 million to buy Logan's industries, including hotels and
coal mines.
Five years later, society stabilized, and the value of these industries increased tenfold! Thanks to this one move, he became the richest man in Canan!

Several more years passed, and the Lloyd Family's total assets had surpassed 15 billion by the time Theodore turned 52. They were flourishing these days. Throughout the year, he kept the middle-aged man's last sentence in mind.
Seize the web.
He had always been puzzled by the meaning of this sentence until the first internet company emerged in the country and the world entered the internet age. It was then that he finally understood its true meaning.
So, Theodore cast a wide net,/investing heavily in dozens of internet companies
in the country and even globally with 1.5 billion venture capital.
This time, his choice proved to be correct once again. Ten years later, these
internet companies had grown

tremendously, and he was able to cash out over 30 billion. This influx of funds helped the Lloyd Family to survive two consecutive financial crises and averted
their downfall.
As he recounted his experience, he sighed deeply. "That man was truly a master strategist! Without his guidance, my family would have never made it to where
we are today."
After hearing, William suddenly sneered.
Theodore was stunned and asked, "Mr. Barrett, what are you laughing at?"
William replied calmly, "I find this kind of trickery amusing. Can't you see through
it?"
Theodore was perplexed. "What do you mean by trickery?"
William asked, "Do you know what divination is?"
Theodore responded, "Yes. It's the art of foretelling a person's future."

As Theodore was wise and experienced, he immediately grasped the implication
and asked, "Mr. Barrett, are you suggesting that my achievements were

Theodore was shocked. 'Mr. Barrett, do you also practice divination?"
