Chapter 122: Herbs
The shopkeeper looked embarrassed and said to the girl, "This ...... Girl, I'm really embarrassed, I just promised this guest to sell this 10,000-year-old ginseng to her, why don't you take a look at something else? ”
The girl asked contemptuously, "Then do you have another 10,000-year-old ginseng?" ”
"Girl, this is a joke, a 10,000-year-old ginseng is already rare, how can there be a second plant in the shop?" The shopkeeper said with a wry smile.
"Isn't that enough, Ben Gong...... Miss Ben wants 10,000 years of ginseng, and she doesn't want anything else! The girl said bruisedly.
"The girl is embarrassed villain, since she has promised to sell to the guest who is Fang Cai, how can she change her hexagram and resell it to others, so discredited, this is not a sign that smashes us, and will be looked down upon by our peers." What the shopkeeper said is true, doing business is about a credit, and even credit cannot be guaranteed, so how can there be customers to come to the door.
When the girl heard the shopkeeper say this, she turned to Luo Jiuxi, raised her chin, and said proudly: "Then I will buy it from you and pay you five times the price you just bought with gold coins!" ”
Luo Jiuxi ignored the girl who had no one in her eyes, and urged the shopkeeper: "Hurry up and wrap up the medicinal herbs, we still have something." ”
The shopkeeper hurriedly responded, turned around and packed the 10,000-year-old ginseng and handed it to Luo Jiuxi. Luo Jiuxi took the medicinal herbs and was about to leave, but the girl just now obviously didn't want to let go of Luo Jiuxi, so she stopped in front of her: "Don't go, Miss Ben doesn't allow you to go, you just want to leave like this?" ”
Luo Jiuxi smiled evilly and said, "Otherwise? Our feet grow on ourselves, so we naturally want to go. ”
"You leave that 10,000-year-old ginseng behind, and you can go, or don't think about leaving." The girl said unreasonably.
"Why? I paid, why can't I take things with me? Luo Jiuxi put his hands around his chest and squinted at the girl.
"Just because I am Limo, the princess of Miyue Country, and my father is the emperor of Miyue Kingdom!" Li Mo revealed her identity, wanting to force Luo Jiuxi to transfer the 10,000-year-old ginseng.
Luo Jiuxi will not be suppressed by the identity of the other party, she doesn't mind who is coming, but since the other party doesn't let her have a good time, she naturally has to be courteous.
Luo Jiuxi's heart turned, the princess of Miyue Country, right? Aren't you rich, let you behave well today, otherwise I'm sorry you deliberately stopped us and left me behind!
"Princess Mitsuki, huh? Disrespectful and disrespectful, the folk girl has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and there are a lot of princesses in our Miyue Kingdom, so naturally they won't care about me in general. Luo Jiuxi pretended to be humble and said.
"That's natural, if you don't know this princess, this princess won't care about you." Limo replied from above.
Luo Jiuxi didn't give Li Mo a chance to continue talking, and quickly answered: "Since it is Her Royal Highness the Princess, it is natural that I have never seen any rare treasures, let alone a 10,000-year-old ginseng that is not in good condition, even if it is a high-quality 10,000-year-old ginseng, it should not compete with my little maiden, so Her Royal Highness the Princess will not do such a thing to lose her identity and discredit the royal family, right?" ”
Luo Jiuxi's implication is: If you are a princess, you have never seen any good things, and you will compete with me for a medicinal material that is not in good condition? If you fight with me, you will be a loss of your identity, and you will lose the face of your royal family.
When the surrounding onlookers heard this, they felt very reasonable, a dignified princess and a folk girl grabbed medicinal materials, it was really a shame for the royal family, could it be that the royal family of Miyue Country was so poor? Don't even have a decent medicinal herb?
Suddenly, the onlookers whispered, and their eyes were full of disdain when they looked at Limo.
Li Mo didn't expect Luo Jiuxi to be so clever and sharp-tongued, and after eating this stuffy loss, she suddenly couldn't lift it up or swallow it in one breath, and then looked at the disdainful eyes of the people around her, Li Mo felt that she had never been so embarrassed when she grew so big!
Li Mo wanted to save face, and pretended not to mind, and said, "How could this princess grab a broken herb with you?" This palace doesn't care about this thing, what does our royal family have? This palace is generous, so I will send you. ”
Luo Jiuxi smiled and said, "Since it was sent by the princess, then I might as well obey my fate respectfully, thank Her Royal Highness the princess!" The princess sent the Buddha to the west, and the good people did it to the end, why don't you send me some more medicinal herbs? ”
Li Mo didn't expect Luo Jiuxi to be so difficult, but her previous words had already been spoken, and if she changed her words at this time, it would confirm that she was stingy, and now she can only go all the way to the dark. Limo bit the pressure and said, "Okay, what else do you want, I'll go get it, and I'll give it to you in this palace." ”
"Okay, thank you, Your Highness Princess!" After speaking, Luo Jiuxi turned his head to the shopkeeper and kindly reminded: "Don't forget to settle the bill with the princess." ”
As soon as Li Mo heard this, a mouthful of old blood almost spurted out! It's really a recipe for stealing chickens!
Luo Jiuxi was really not polite to Li Mo, and deliberately picked out some valuable medicinal materials, it was really a lion's mouth, and when Li Mo sent someone to check out, he saw the huge amount of money spent, and his face turned green.
Limo was cheated with such a large sum of money, and she was very depressed, but she could only eat Coptis chinensis dumbly and couldn't say it, swallowed this evil breath, and thought that he would take revenge for today!
Luo Jiuxi looked at Limo's face as black as the bottom of a pot, not to mention how happy it was, who let you pretend to be a big one, thinking about my 10,000-year-old ginseng, this time let you be completely wronged!
Yan Xiao didn't interfere with Luo Jiuxi throughout the whole process, and now seeing Luo Jiuxi's successful appearance, he couldn't help but smile dotingly, stepped forward to take Luo Jiuxi's hand, and said, "It's not a short time to come out, and the medicinal materials we want to buy have also been bought, we should go back." ”
Luo Jiuxi smiled sweetly at Yan Xiao: "Okay! Let's go back! ”
Because of the medicinal materials before, Limo's attention was on Luo Jiuxi, but now that Yan Xiao was speaking, she noticed Yan Xiao, and she was instantly attracted by Yan Xiao.
Such a handsome man actually accompanied the evil girl, and talked to her gently and dotingly, Li Mo felt that her heart was filled with jealousy, but her face did not show the slightest hint, just silently watched Yan Xiaoluo Jiuxi and the two leave hand in hand.
Out of the pharmacy, Yan Xiao raised his eyebrows and said to Luo Jiuxi, "In a good mood?" ”
Luo Jiuxi shook his hair, raised his chin slightly, and said: "That's natural, I cheated someone else with a lot of money, of course I'm in a good mood!" ”
Yan Xiao looked at Luo Jiuxi with gentle eyes and said, "Since it can make you feel good, you can come to pit my silver at any time!" "It's really for Bo Hongyan to smile, and he won't talk about spending a lot of money.
Luo Jiuxi touched Yan Xiao's forehead in surprise, and thought in pieces: "I don't have a fever, I still want to let me pit your silver, even if you are rich, you can't be such a loser!" Don't you know how to live at home, open the door, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea? A penny can stump a hero! Although money is not everything, it is absolutely impossible to have no money! It's just about to be used on the blade, you know? You can't lose! ”
Yan Xiao listened to Luo Jiuxi's chatter, but her heart felt like eating honey, especially her sentence of living at home, it can be seen that she treats herself as a family, and this realization makes Yan Xiao very satisfied. So, he said softly, "Okay, you're right!" It's all up to you! ”
Luo Jiuxi rolled his eyes, of course he can't spend other people's money, Yan Xiao's money is also his own!
Yan Xiaoluo Jiuxi and the two of them talked and laughed all the way back to the inn, as soon as they returned to the inn, before they went upstairs, they saw the innkeeper greet them, saluted respectfully, and said: "Miss Luo is back, my master sent someone to send a gift over, and the villain has already sent the gift to Miss's room." ”
Luo Jiuxi looked surprised, he didn't know why Xuanzong Boss Shan Xi suddenly thought of giving a gift, but out of politeness, he still had to express his gratitude. So Luo Jiuxi said: "Help me thank your master, Lord Xuanzong!" Because he didn't know what Shanxi sent, Luo Jiuxi didn't say anything else, so he went upstairs with Yan Xiao.
When he entered the room, he saw the gift sent by Shan Xi, which was placed on the table in the room, Luo Jiuxi stepped forward, opened the box, and was immediately very surprised. Shanxi sent extremely precious herbs over, and even if these herbs were bought at a large price, they might not be able to be bought, which was a very rare place.
Luo Jiuxi thought, it seems that Shan Xi knows about buying 10,000 years of ginseng in the pharmacy, and sure enough, the power of the boss of Xuanzong is all over the place, and the slightest wind and grass can't escape their eyes.
Of course, Yan Xiao also saw the precious herbs sent by Shanxi, and said in a sour tone: "If Jiuxi needs precious herbs, I have also collected a lot of good things, all of which are rare treasures, and I can give them to you......"
Luo Jiuxi interrupted Yan Xiao's words, she knew that Yan Xiao must let herself return Shanxi's gift next, but now Luo Jiuxi wants to ask for help, naturally she doesn't want to offend Lord Xuanzong, she doesn't want Yan Xiao to say the next words, so she said loudly: "After the Alchemist Conference, I want to ask Xuanzong's boss Shanxi to do me a favor......"
Yan Xiao didn't think about it and denied: "No! "Thinking of that handsome young man, Yan Xiao didn't want Luo Jiuxi to have more contact with him, and Xuanzong Shanxi had been showing favor to Luo Jiuxi, and he didn't know what kind of heart An's heart was, so it was better to let Luo Jiuxi stay away from him!
Luo Jiuxi held his forehead helplessly, Yan Xiao's flying vinegar was really a headache. But Luo Jiuxi patiently explained: "Don't be in a hurry to deny it first, listen to what I said, I found that Xuanzong's forces are all over the place, and many things can be found out even if there are only clues, so I want to ask the boss of Xuanzong to help find out my father's whereabouts." ”
As soon as Yan Xiao heard it, it was about his father-in-law, so naturally he was not easy to object, it was true that Xuanzong's power was not weak, especially in the matter of finding people, one more person would make more effort, and a large number of people was always a good thing, and it was impossible to tell which party missed the details that were discovered by the other party.
Yan Xiao thought about it for a while, and also said, "That's okay, if he is willing to help, it will be more hope." In this way, I will also arrange for people to search, and whether there is a result or not, it is good to send more people. ”
Luo Jiuxi nodded gratefully and said, "Thank you Yan Xiao!" Thank you for understanding me, thank you for helping to find my father, thank you for all you did for me! ”
Yan Xiao gently rubbed Luo Jiuxi's hand and said, "I said a long time ago, you don't need to thank me!" ”
Luo Jiuxi remembered another thing to tell Yan Xiao at this time, so he solemnly said to Yan Xiao: "By the way, Yan Xiao, there is one more thing I want to tell you, for the sake of the Alchemist Conference, I decided to retreat and cultivate for a period of time, better improve my strength, and participate in the Alchemist Conference in the best state." ”
Yan Xiao nodded and agreed: "It's okay!" This Alchemist Conference cannot be taken lightly, we must make sufficient preparations, you can practice in retreat for a period of time, so that you can put aside distracting thoughts, concentrate on cultivation, and improve your strength faster! ”
Luo Jiuxi said: "I think the same way, it's always okay to be prepared." ”
Yan Xiao then said softly to Luo Jiuxi: "You don't have to worry about the outside affairs, everything is with me, you can cultivate with peace of mind." ”
"Good!" Luo Jiuxi smiled sweetly at Yan Xiao, and the two talked for a while, before going out to find other people, and went downstairs to eat together, thinking that they couldn't get tired of being together for a while, and the two of them were extra sweet when they had dinner, and they sprinkled a handful of dog food!
