Chapter 293: Young Master Yang!Purple bamboo leaves?
They are obviously fifth-grade spiritual herbs, purple frost sacred bamboo. They are actually treated and sold as third-grade spiritual herbs, purple bamboo leaves.
Looks like this Alchemy Union in Fengyang prefecture is just so-so.
A strange color flashed past Lou Qianxue"s eyes. An evil smile made its way to her face as she lazily said, “How do you know that I can"t afford to buy it?”
The medicine boy glanced at her with disdain. “I"ve seen too many people like you. You look poor, but still want to impress others by feigning your abilities. However, the stuff in our Alchemy Union is different from the stuff outside. It"s not something that you can casually afford.”
“What if I can?” Lou Qianxue was very interested to find out.
The medicine boy froze for a while. With a frown, he sized up Lou Qianxue again. “If you can, I"ll consider you as impressive. I"ll do whatever you want me to do.”
“Alright. Remember your words. Wrap these… yeah, purple bamboo leaves. I want them.” Lou Qianxue took out a stack of silver notes from Mountain River s.p.a.ce and nonchalantly placed it on the table. “Count it. Let me know if it"s not enough.”
“… ” When the medicine boy in front of the counter saw the huge stack of silver notes, his eyes almost bulged out of their sockets. “You… You…”
How"s it possible! The material of the clothes on this person"s body is only the material of a poor person.
The medicine boy stared at Lou Qianxue in disbelief. The anger of being tricked spontaneously rose within him.
“What about me? Don"t forget that from the beginning to the end, I never said that I could not afford these herbs. Moreover, you gave me your word. What was it? You"ll do whatever I ask you to, right?”
When the medicine boy heard this, he felt as though someone had poured a pot of cold water on him. His face became paper-white as he said, “Young lady… VIP, Aunt, I"ve failed to recognize a formidable person. Please forget what I said earlier. Don"t mind the words of an unimportant person like me.”
How could he, a lowly medicine boy, afford to provoke someone who could take out 1.5 million taels of silver notes?
“Fine. You only pretend to be pitiful now. Where"s the haughtiness from before? Quickly count the money. I still have other matters to tend to.”
The medicine boy did not know how Lou Qianxue would deal with him, and he felt regretful and afraid. He was so frightened that his eyes turned red, and he trembled while counting the silver notes. In the end, he discovered that the stack contained an extra ten thousand taels. His legs went wobbly, and he wished to faint and die at this moment.
“VIP, these silver notes were extra. I"ll wrap the purple bamboo leaves now.”
Lou Qianxue received the silver notes. Seeing that he looked frightened, she raised her eyebrows and silently let him wrap the purple bamboo leaves.
At this moment, a commotion broke out amongst a group of people near her.
Lou Qianxue turned sideways and saw a young man clad in embroidered clothes deep within the Alchemy Union. This man was surrounded by cl.u.s.ters of people.
“Ah, Young Master Yang. It"s Young Master Yang!”
“I heard that Young Master Yang is only 24 years old, yet he"s close to becoming a third-grade alchemist. He"s really impressive!”
“Isn"t it so! In terms of alchemy talent amongst the younger generation of Fengyang prefecture, only Mu Wushuang can match him. The rest can only accept their loss.”
“Exactly. Although the eldest Young Master and Third Young Master from the Prefectural Governor"s mansion and that Hong Qinghe from the Hong family have demonic talents, their talents only lie in the area of martial skills. They are not proficient in alchemy.”
Everyone was still talking when Young Master Yang arrogantly walked to the side of the herbs counter and commanded in an aloof voice, “I want to stabilize my realm of a third-grade alchemist. Wrap all the third-grade medicinal herbs here for me now.”
