…
Looking at the man in front of him, Xing Tian thought for a moment and asked, "Do you have any medicinal herbs for sale here?"
The guy chuckled and said, "Look what you said, our Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce eats this bowl of rice. If you need any herbs, just tell me. As long as you can name it, I can get it for you!"
Xing Tian secretly thought that this guy's tone was quite serious, but he was relieved and said: "I want to condense the ice lotus!"
The clerk was slightly startled, but he knew that this 'Condensing Ice Lotus' was a very rare herb. It would not be an exaggeration to say it was a magical medicine. Of course, the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce also had it, but at this price, it was not something that ordinary people could afford.
Affordable.
Most of the people who can work as waiters here are well-rounded people who are good at observing people's emotions. Xing Tian's clothes are ordinary. At first glance, he looks like an ordinary person. He has no accessories around his waist. Can such a person afford the 'Condensing Ice Lotus'?
However, this guy didn’t know that Xingtian’s Guashan disciple’s clothing had been thrown away by Xingtian long ago due to serious damage, and that Guashan long sword was also lost somewhere when he was fighting with Zhang Tuhai. At this moment, Xingtian’s clothes were
I bought it from a family, so naturally it looks very ordinary.
The guy thought that this person was here to cause trouble? The Condensing Ice Lotus is worth a lot of money, and even some disciples of the big sects may not be able to afford it. With this kind of thinking, he began to look down upon it, and behaved like this
Somewhat negligent.
"Sir, of course we have the Condensing Ice Lotus, but this medicinal material is quite expensive..." As he said that, he looked Xing Tian up and down, meaning, do you have money?
Xing Tian was no longer the country boy who had never seen the world, so the performance of the guy was naturally seen in Xing Tian's eyes.
"You think I can't afford it, right?" Xing Tian smiled, but took out a porcelain bottle and handed it to the guy: "I know that your Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce has business all over the world, and you will also buy some things. Please give this to
You shopkeepers, take a look and come to me again!"
The clerk was stunned. Although he was confused, he still took the porcelain bottle and asked Xing Tian to wait on the first floor. He entered the second floor and found a slightly fat middle-aged man in brocade clothes and explained the situation.
"Shopkeeper Yu, that boy is dressed in ordinary clothes. He doesn't look like a rich man in any way. I think he is probably here to cause trouble. As long as you say a word, I will have someone drive him away!" The waiter still said without any effort.
his point of view.
He has been at the Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce in Binyang Town for four or five years, and he is considered a veteran. He heard that several managers were going to be promoted recently, so he thought about it and thought that he would help the shopkeeper solve his problems and show his vision.
, it can definitely be reused.
Shopkeeper Yu, who was dressed in brocade clothes in front of him, looked at the ordinary porcelain bottle in his hand. He frowned at first, then took off the cork, and immediately smelled a strong medicinal fragrance.
"This is the medicinal fragrance of the Body Tempering Pill!" At this moment, a woman in rich clothes walked out of the back room. She could smell the fragrance from a few meters away. This woman's sense of smell was extremely sensitive.
"I've seen you, Miss!" When shopkeeper Yu saw this woman coming out, he also hurriedly saluted. It was obvious that this woman's status was not low.
"Uncle Yu, I told you, there is no need to be so polite to me, you are my elder after all!" The woman in gorgeous clothes smiled, her gestures were full of charm, but she also showed a sense of competence, just between her eyebrows
, mixed with a hint of sadness.
"Miss is the president of the branch, and the rules cannot be broken!" Shopkeeper Yu smiled slightly, and then poured a pill from the porcelain bottle into the palm of his hand. He only glanced at it, but his face was shocked and he said: "This is...
Fourth grade body tempering pill!"
The woman in gorgeous clothes seemed to have thought of something, but her face was quite excited as she said: "The fourth-grade body tempering pill is a pill that can only be refined by senior alchemists. It has a very important effect on the body tempering realm warriors.
, so the price has always been high, Uncle Yu, these pills..."
Before the woman in gorgeous clothes finished speaking, she saw shopkeeper Yu wink at her. The latter understood, but remained silent.
Then, shopkeeper Yu turned his head and cursed at the waiter who was standing respectfully: "You made a mistake, go and take that young man to the VIP room. Don't neglect me!"
When the clerk heard that it was a fourth-grade body tempering pill, he immediately knew that he was blind. When the shopkeeper said this, he hurriedly went downstairs and secretly cursed the boy downstairs. He was obviously a person with status, why was he still wearing it?
It's so ordinary. Isn't this intentional to harm others?
Putting aside the inner activities of the clerk, after he left, only shopkeeper Yu and the woman in gorgeous clothes were left in the room. The two looked at each other, and then poured out the few remaining pills in the porcelain bottle.
, and it turned out that all of them contained fourth-grade body tempering pills, a total of five.
"This elixir has a strong fragrance and a round shape. Most of it is brown, and the gray is distributed in threads. Even among the fourth-grade elixirs, it is of the highest quality!" Shopkeeper Yu obviously has a sinister vision, and he can see the preciousness of these body tempering elixirs at a glance.
.
The woman in gorgeous clothes also nodded, with a hint of excitement in her eyes, and said: "Uncle Yu, look at this..."
Shopkeeper Yu waved his hand, looked around, and then whispered: "Miss, I know what you mean. In the past few days, our alchemists in Binyang Town and even several surrounding areas have been controlled by that bastard Song Changming.
, so we have not received a single elixir during these days. Fortunately, we have some inventory and can barely maintain the supply of high-quality elixirs. However, if things go on for a long time and the headquarters chamber of commerce knows about it, it will definitely cause difficulties for us in our work.
sin!"
The woman in gorgeous clothes nodded with a look of approval.
Shopkeeper Yu added: "Looking at the condition of these elixirs, it definitely took no more than three days to refine them. They should be the work of a certain senior alchemist. The one who dares to come to the Chamber of Commerce to sell elixirs at this time is obviously not Song Changming."
Man, if we can get in touch with this alchemist, this may be a turning point for us!"
The woman in gorgeous clothes let out a long sigh and said, "This is all my fault..."
"Miss, please don't say that. Then Song Changming used such dirty means to force you to commit yourself to him. His intentions are sinister and despicable. And if this person's methods are like this, how can he be a good person? If Miss, commit yourself to him, how can you
If I didn’t harm the young lady’s life, even a hundred years later, I wouldn’t have the face to see the master and his wife!” Shopkeeper Yu looked indignant.
"But Song Changming is a local gangster in Binyang Town. His family collects and sells medicinal materials. All the alchemists here have dealings with his family. He used this underhanded trick to catch us off guard. Uncle Yu, I have already
After thinking about it, the worst case scenario is that we will report this matter to the General Assembly. By then, with the financial resources and power of the General Assembly, we will definitely be able to make Chief Song retreat despite the difficulties!" The woman in Chinese clothes took a deep breath and said firmly.
"In that case, I'm afraid you won't be able to take the position of branch president. You know how many people there are thinking about this position, even the people around us. Who knows if they are also peeping? Once caught
If you find the handle, that will be the result of being kicked out. Song Changming has calculated this accurately and will do this!" Shopkeeper Yu looked helpless.
"Even if I don't want to be the president of this branch, I won't compromise with him. Okay, Uncle Yu, I will go and meet with you the person who sells the elixir. If you can really get in touch with a senior alchemist,
We can also alleviate this crisis!" The woman in gorgeous clothes showed a smile, but she looked like she was used to seeing strong winds and waves.
Shopkeeper Yu naturally knew this young lady's temper, but he nodded.
The young lady's name is Chang Yuzhen. Both her parents died when she was young. She has known how to take care of herself since she was a child. Her status and achievements today are the result of her efforts far exceeding those of ordinary people. She sat down at the age of thirteen.
The second shopkeeper, when he was fifteen, became the branch's chief shopkeeper. Now, at the age of eighteen, she is already the president of the branch. A woman has accomplished many things that even men cannot do.
As for Song Changming, he was a real dandy. A few months ago, he accidentally saw Miss Yuzhen and was attracted by her beauty, and began his crazy pursuit. However, this man spent a lot of time and alcohol, and was full of all kinds of poisons. He was really a scoundrel.
Jia Xiaoren, after many fruitless pursuits, began to use some disgusting methods. Recently, he secretly controlled and threatened the alchemists around him not to sell any elixirs to the Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce. There was no source of elixirs for a long time.
Yes, the impact on the branch is huge.
"I just hope that I can really get to know the alchemist through this pill seller, otherwise..." Shopkeeper Yu could only sigh deeply when he thought of this.
…
In a well-decorated room, Xing Tian was sitting on a chair covered with soft cushions, drinking good tea and looking around.
The waiter just now hurriedly brought him here, made tea and then left. He only said that he would wait here for a while, and their shopkeeper would be here soon.
In fact, Xing Tian had thought about this outcome before, but he thought that at most it would be a court official from the Chamber of Commerce, but he did not expect that it would be the shopkeeper.
Xing Tian had full confidence in the five fourth-grade body tempering pills that he took out. These body tempering pills were refined with high-quality herbs that had been watered with purple water.
The fourth-grade pills, coupled with the enhancement of purple gourd, have all become the best among fourth-grade elixirs. It can be said that these body-tempering pills are treasures in the eyes of warriors, and can be exchanged for a condensed ice lotus.
It should be more than enough.
As for whether the other party has evil intentions and takes away the elixirs never to return, Xingtian is not worried. Firstly, for him, these elixirs can be refined at any time and are not worth much at all. Secondly,
It is also because the Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce has a good reputation and will definitely not do such dirty things.
Sure enough, after waiting for a while, I heard footsteps coming from outside the house, and then the door was pushed open, and a fat man in brocade clothes, about fifty years old, stepped in.
Seeing the other party, Xing Tian frowned slightly. He ate pills like jelly beans every day. He had a sharp ear and eyes. Just now he heard footsteps. There were clearly two people. One was walking steadily, while the other was very gentle. They should be a man and a woman. But why?
Only men entered. Could it be that the woman was hiding outside the door?
