Chapter 53: A Sudden Kiss

There were still a lot of people in the medicinal herb trading market, and Victor walked to the largest shop in the middle, only to see the sign at the door that said 'Tong Ren Tang Pharmacy'. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Well, this is a fantasy world, how could the name of my 'Tong Ren Tang Pharmacy' in the Tang Dynasty of Middle Earth appear.

This pharmacy is called 'Snake Tooth Pharmacy', what kind of ghost name is this, Hou Wukong thought to himself. As everyone knows, every pharmacy here is marked by a snake emblem, that is, a snake wrapped around a cane, which means that this is a symbol of medicine. The name of the pharmacy is Snake Fang, which means that the name is given after the snake logo.

The snake emblem is the symbol of medicine in the Delmar continent, but it reminds Hou Wukong of the cobra ice beast. He was somewhat disgusted by the sign.

The owner of the Snake Tooth Pharmacy is a middle-aged Humpty Dumpty, bald, and round-faced. With a big belly and a fat body, he saw Victor pulling a cart full of medicinal herbs and hurriedly greeted him.

"Victor, oh, hello my little darling, little angel. What are you delivering this time? Oh, lo and behold, bitter sprouts. It's a great treat for colds and fevers. The middle-aged fat man said as he pulled a bitter sprout from the carriage and sniffed it on his nose.

"Why does he call you little darling, little angel?" Xiao Li felt goosebumps, although his name was Victor, it still made Xiao Li feel uncomfortable.

Victor shrugged his shoulders: "I don't know, that's probably what he called me when I was a kid." It's always been like this, hell knows. If he wants to call, let him call, as long as he can give me money for my goods. ā€

It was clear that Victor was used to being called this by the middle-aged Humpty Dumpty. But Hou Wukong remembered that Sarina liked to call him that, and he had an urge to strangle her at that time. I didn't expect this Humpty Dumpty to like this too.

Humpty Dumpty was still spotting the herbs from here, sniffing them on his nose or chewing them in his mouth.

"Hey! Ste, you old fellow. Don't pull my bitter sprouts for me anymore, it's all the best! Victor shouted at him.

Humpty Dumpty, named Stu, said, "The goods are all right, but the other day Prince Allah ordered an increase in taxes, and the price is not so high."

"What?!" Victor screamed, and it was clear that this guy named Shi Du was driving down the price.

"You can't put the tax on us, I already overcharged me thirty percent of the tax when I entered the city!" Victor was arguing.

"Now it's all at this price, I can't lose money, and I can't add the price to consumers, so my goods can't be sold at all. Victor, we are old customers, I can't help it, for the sake of the old customer's face, I can only give you one percent more than others. "Shi Du probably has some truth in saying that high taxes have made Shi Du also lose money.

"Alright then," Victor looked a little dejected, "but I don't want cash this time." You give me these bitter sprouts for a medicine for bruises. ā€

"What?" Shi didn't understand.

"I mean, you get me some medicine for bruises, I want as much as I want."

"Victor, the Barral River is a major drug-producing land, and half of Thomas's herbs are produced in the Barral River. Your family bought herbs from Balar and shipped them to the ancient city of Lanling. Why, do you want to transport the herbs back to your Barral River again. Shi was laughing at him.

"Yes, I'm going to get them back to the Barral River."

Shi Du's eyes widened: "Victor, you don't have a fever, the bitter sprouts here are just right to treat your fever."

"What nonsense, old fellow. Hurry up and unload the car for me, and then load me with bone-setting herbs after unloading. ā€

"And the price?" Shi Du asked.

"You set the price, I have as much as I want. Fill my carts for me. ā€

That Humpty Dumpty named Shi Du was overjoyed, and he could make two profits in this business. I ordered my subordinates to unload the car and load it.

Hou Wukong watched quietly from the side, this Victor is really a genius in business.

"What does he mean by that?" Xiao Li asked Hou Wukong, Xiao Li was a little incomprehensible.

"You don't see that?" Hou Wukong tilted his head and looked at Xiao Li.

Xiao Li shook his head, looking dazed.

Hou Wukong smiled and whispered beside Xiao Li: "This Victor is smart, he knows that he is going to fight, what is the most lacking in war?"

Xiao Li shook his head, and after thinking for a while, his eyes lit up: "You mean these medicine for bruises?"

Hou Wukong smiled and nodded: "This guy knows that once the war starts, the price of this wound medicine will rise." So he stocked up, and this man was indeed a business genius. ā€

Xiao Li scoffed: "What a genius, it's a traitor, a profiteer, it's hard to make a fortune."

"Hey, this Victor is good. Young and talented. Do you want to think about it ... ā€

Xiao Li suddenly hugged Hou Wukong's neck and kissed him on the face: "I'm also very good, do you want to consider me?"

After speaking, Xiao Li jumped in front of Shi Du to ask which herbs were useful and cured, and Shi Du saw that although Xiao Li was young, he was extremely beautiful. Thinking that Xiao Li was a family member brought by Victor, he talked to Xiao Li about the uses of various herbs.

Hou Wukong stayed on the ground and was dumbfounded, he raised his head woodenly, just in time to see Victor's gaze.

It turned out that the scene just now was seen by Victor, and the expression on Victor's face at this moment can only be described as bitter gourd.

"Ah~!" Victor finally couldn't help but cry on the carriage. Victor slammed the carriage with his right hand and clutched his chest with his left hand and wailed.

Shi Du was talking to Xiao Li about the use of various herbs, when he suddenly heard Victor's howl looking at him inexplicably, and passers-by also looked at Victor. Victor didn't care, still howling in the carriage, but didn't see his tears.

Half-ringing, Hou Wukong stupidly wiped his cheek that had been kissed by Xiao Li just now, and a faint fragrance hit, like Lan Feilan, like a musk deer, faint and heavy, sweet and greasy.

Xiao Li listened to Shi Du's introduction to herbal medicine, and glanced at Hou Wukong from the corner of his eye, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and the two shallow dimples were very cute.

As everyone knows, Hou Wukong's heart also jumped suddenly just now. However, the person he saw in his eyes was not Xiao Li, but Siya.

"Click!" There was a sound of neat footsteps, and a group of guards from the ancient city of Lanling walked over.

These soldiers were dressed in silver armor and silver helmets, and their military appearance was neat and imposing.

Among the soldiers, an officer dressed in a baron's costume stepped out, and he drew his sword: "Listen to me, everybody, the traitor Karen occupies Dante's castle with the intention of rebelling."

The baron's eyes were cold, and he continued: "Prince Allah has an order, and the great war is imminent. All bruising medicines in the medicinal herb trading market were sent to Lanling Manor, and trading was prohibited. ā€

"Boom!" With a bang, the merchants in the medicinal herb trading market immediately blew up the pot, and the Prince of Allah actually wanted to seize these herbs.
