Chapter 17: Being stalked
"If you buy three or more Tranquility Fruits at one time, Fuchun Herb Hall can sell them at a 10% discount. The waiter looked at the girl and said with a smile.
"Then I'll buy three one-year-old Tranquility Fruits. The girl thought for a moment.
"If you decide to buy three one-year-old Ningshen fruits, it just meets the conditions for the nine-fold sale of Fuchun Herb Hall, a one-year Ningshen fruit is five taels of gold, three one-year Ningshen fruits are fifteen taels of gold, and after the discount, it is thirteen taels of gold and fifty taels of silver. The waiter spoke eloquently, and at the end, he said the discounted price of three one-year-old Ningshen Fruits.
The girl thought for a moment again, the waiter smiled and waited patiently, and after a moment, the girl nodded.
"Guest, please wait. After the waiter finished speaking, he retreated, obviously to prepare the three one-year-old Ning Shen Fruits that the girl had definitely purchased.
The maiden did not wait long, and the waiter soon returned. It's just that the girl looked at the waiter who returned empty-handed, and a bad feeling flashed in her heart.
"I'm really sorry, but the year-old Ningshen Fruit in our store has been purchased by a VIP customer. The waiter said apologetically.
"There's not a single Ning Shen Fruit left in a year?" The girl's face turned slightly cold when she heard this, if it weren't for the reputation of the Fuchun Herb Hall, she would even wonder if the Fuchun Herb Hall had received any news and deliberately wanted to embarrass herself.
"Yes, I'm sorry. The waiter still said apologetically: "If the guest officer is not in a hurry, you can come to Wufang again on the fifth day of the first month of next month, and then the Fuchun Herbal Medicine Hall will have three one-year-old Ningshen Fruits that the guest officer needs to buy." ”
"On the fifth day of the next month, we have to wait almost a month. The girl whispered. was about to leave, but hesitated, obviously very unwilling. Before coming to Wufang, I had already inquired, and I already had a general understanding in my heart. This time, if you can't buy three one-year-old Ningshen Fruits at a discounted price in the Fuchun Herbal Medicine Hall, you can only buy two one-year-old Ningshen Fruits in other places with your own financial resources.
"May I ask if the man is pre-ordered, or has he already purchased and left?" the girl had already taken seven or eight steps, but she refused to give up the last glimmer of hope, and turned to the waiter who was about to leave.
"This ......" The waiter's face froze, and his face was embarrassed. For all kinds of information from every customer, Fuchun Herbal Medicine Hall has its own rules, and confidentiality is the first priority. Fuchun Herbal Medicine Hall treats ordinary customers like this, let alone a VIP customer.
The girl naturally knew that her problem was difficult, but this was the last ray of hope, she refused to give up, took out a token from her sleeve, and said, "I have no malice." ”
Seeing the token in the girl's hand, the male waiter's face changed, and he said more and more respectfully: "It turns out that the guest officer is a disciple of the Lin family in Qinghe City. ”
"By now you should know that I really have no ill will. After the girl identified herself, she put away the token.
The waitress hesitated slightly, then looked left and right, and whispered to the girl, "I only know that this VIP is still shopping in our store." ”
After speaking, without waiting for the girl to make any response, she quickly turned around and left the scene.
The girl was slightly surprised, glanced at the second floor of the Fuchun Herbal Medicine Hall, her eyes flashed, and she left without staying long.
What happened in the foyer on the first floor of Fuchun Herbal Medicine Hall, Lu Chen in the VIP room on the second floor didn't know anything, I have to say that the VIP treatment was extraordinary, and before a cup of fragrant tea was drunk, all the medicinal materials had been done.
As Shuai Fu said before, the quality of the medicinal materials in Fuchun Herbal Medicine Hall is not mentioned, and the VIP treatment is even more homely. When the medicinal materials arrived, Lu Chen was in a good mood and paid for the medicinal materials happily. Bihe stood up proudly, stepped forward with a smile, and asked very intimately: "Distinguished guest, do you want to send someone to send medicinal materials to your house?"
"No, I don't. Lu Chen decisively refused, twisted the big bag with one hand and carried it on his shoulder, and then strode downstairs under the stunned eyes of Bihe and the little guys in the store. The handsome man who was black on the side poured a sip of tea and hurriedly followed. Bihe came to his senses and hurriedly chased him out, the God of Wealth was leaving, so he naturally wanted to leave a good impression on the God of Wealth, and he couldn't be worse on this last step, and sent Lu Chen out of the door of the Fuchun Herbal Medicine Hall, and Bihe stopped.
And then. Out of the white courtyard wall of Wufang, Lu Chen threw a heavy money bag into Shuai Fu's hand.
The sound of the collision in the bounty bag is extremely pleasant, and the hand is even heavier, which makes people feel relieved, and Shuai Fu is pleasantly surprised, and he can't help but want to open it to take a look, but this thought is fleeting. You know, there is an unwritten rule in this business, and you generally don't open the bounty bag in front of the master to see what is going on. Whether you are a rookie or a veteran, as long as you look at the reaction after receiving the reward bag, you will be clear.
"Open it and take a look. Lu Chen saw through Shuai Fu's mind and said.
The handsome man who was black and didn't slip in the autumn smiled, tore open a gap in the bounty bag, and looked inside, and suddenly the handsome man's eyes opened big and round, and he suddenly pulled the mouth of the bag wide, and he looked like he was rushing into the bounty bag.
"This ...... That's just too much. Shuai Fu said as he put the reward bag into it and wanted to return it to Lu Chen. For veterans of this industry, there is another unwritten rule, how much to take, the bottom of the heart. Beyond too much, absolutely do not take. Below the bottom line, it is imperative to fight, of course, if you can't get it, then you can only swallow it. Just after saying a word, Shuai Fu was directly dumbfounded, and there was still a young man in front of him. At this time, it was getting dark, Shuai Fu looked left and right, even took the bounty bag in his hand into his arms, and left in a hurry.
After paying Shuai Fu's reward, Lu Chen quickly returned to the Lin family with a large bag of medicinal herbs, as if something was chasing after him.
Although he didn't see it with his own eyes, Lu Chen was sure that he was being followed. Walking all the way, Lu Chentou didn't dare to go back, but his face was getting more and more ugly, seeing that he was about to arrive at the Lin family, the feeling of being followed showed no signs of dissipating at all.
"The Lin family is a big family in Qinghe City, let's go back to the Lin family first. Paying attention, Lu Chen's feet suddenly exerted force, ready to step into the Lin family in one go.
At this moment, out of the corner of Lu Chen's eye, he caught a glimpse of a black shadow flashing away from his side, blocking his way, he fixed his mind, his eyes were dark, and he couldn't tell whether the other party was a man or a woman.
"Stay. The figure stood still, and the voice came.
It's actually a female bandit!Lu Chen was slightly surprised in his heart, he couldn't figure out where the other party was coming from, straightened his waist, and shouted in a low voice: "I am a disciple of the Lin family in Qinghe City, you want to rob me, but you have to think clearly about the consequences of angering the Lin family in Qinghe City!"
This set of rhetoric is what Lu Chen has long speculated in his heart, the Lin family is a big family in Qinghe City, and others generally do not easily provoke the Lin family. At this time, it was half a threat and half a warning, if it was an ordinary little thief, he would definitely be scared away by his own words.
"How did I not know that the Lin family still had a disciple like you. The girl gritted her teeth and said, with a faint anger burning in her eyes. As he spoke, he slowly approached, and his figure and face gradually became clear.
Lu Chen looked at the person in front of him, his expression was surprised, this person who blocked the way actually knew him, could it be that the second lady of the Lin family was still a little thief? Or maybe Lin Qiuxue also returned to the Lin family from Wufang, and she happened to meet her. The girl in front of her was none other than the second lady of the Lin family, Lin Qiuxue. He taught Lu Chen a lesson in the Lin family's martial arts arena before, and insulting Lin Jinxi is the eternal shame of the Lin family.
"Returning to the second miss, the little private thinks that the miscellaneous disciples of the Lin family are also disciples of the Lin family, a member of the Lin family, and share the glory and disgrace with the Lin family. Lu Chen had learned Lin Qiuxue's powerful methods and said in a low voice.
Lin Qiuxue snorted coldly, and said with her hand: "It's good to understand that you are just a miscellaneous disciple of the Lin family, and give me the package in your hand to take a look." ”
Lin Qiuxue bit out the word miscellaneous servant heavily.
As soon as these words came out, Lu Chen knew in his heart that this was not a coincidence.
"Second Miss, although the little one is just an insignificant miscellaneous disciple, the package on this shoulder is a small personal belonging. If the second lady wants to see it, it's not impossible, but please ask the second lady to take out the token of the head of the family first, and the small one will put the package in both hands, so that the second miss can see it clearly one by one. Presumably, for this Lin family law, the second lady knows better than me, an insignificant little handyman. Lu Chen didn't feel inferior to being a miscellaneous disciple, and when he heard this, there was a trace of anger in his heart, and he whispered at this moment, although his demeanor was respectful, but the words he said were soft and thorny.
"You ......" Lin Qiuxue's willow eyebrows were upside down, Yurong was angry, he didn't expect that a little handyman in a miscellaneous yard would dare to say this to himself.
Immediately, Lu Chen only felt a heavy cold snort in his ears, and a shadow shook in front of him, and his shoulders became much lighter. When he came back to his senses, the package had already arrived in Lin Qiuxue's hands. Lu Chen's heart was shocked for a while, and he realized how much danger he had taken when he said to Lin Qiuxue before. But even if he did it again, Lu Chen would still say the same thing.
"There are seventeen golden ginseng plants in one year, eight myelin flowers in one year, and Ningshen fruit in one year...... There are as many as eight of them!You are really a VIP of the Fuchun Herbal Medicine Hall in Wufang!" Lin Qiuxue opened the package, and then every time she opened a brocade box, she was shocked, and when she opened the third brocade box, she was completely shocked by the eight exquisitely clear and translucent cyan fruits embedded in the golden satin.
Eight one-year-old Ningshen Fruits, even according to the price of Fuchun Herb Hall after a nine-percent discount, are already worth thirty-six taels of gold. Coupled with other medicinal materials, Lin Qiuxue made a rough estimate in her heart, and couldn't help but envy in her heart, this inconspicuous package was worth no less than eighty or ninety taels of gold. What I love the most is the eight one-year-old Ningshen fruits.
Lin Qiuxue suddenly thought of something, and asked sharply, "Where did you, a little handyman of the Lin family, get so much money to buy medicinal herbs?"
Lu Chen only felt a burst of amusement in his heart, and said in a low voice: "Don't steal, don't rob, your own money." If the second lady thinks that she is too small, she can ask the head of the family in person. ”
"Don't you dare?" Lin Qiuxue glanced at Lu Chen with slanted eyes, and saw that in addition to the respect that should be on Lu Chen's face, there was also a calm look, he was really not afraid to trace the source of the money.
Lin Qiuxue thought for a moment, didn't ask any more, and directly took out three Ning Shen Fruits from the golden satin of the brocade box, and then put the money bag containing thirteen taels of gold and fifty taels of silver into the package and turned away.
"Second Miss, wait a minute. Lu Chen shouted.
Lin Qiuxue didn't seem to hear Lu Chen shouting behind her at all, she tapped her toes, and her figure disappeared quickly.
