However, on the way back to school, Xiao Chen found another pharmacy and planned to inquire about the price.
This store also sold all kinds of medicinal materials. Xiao Chen handed the prescription to an old shopkeeper and asked, "Excuse me, do you have all these medicinal materials?"
"Let me take a look." The old man took Xiao Chen's prescription, picked up his reading glasses, and looked at it carefully. But after reading it, he shook his head and said, "Who gave you this prescription? I know most of the herbs listed, but there are a few that I've never heard of before. Is there a mistake, or is there another name for them? "
"What medicinal materials?" Xiao Chen asked quickly.
"This is it. Bitter Fruit, Red Sweet Flower, Water Glossy Ganoderma … I have sold medicine for so many years, but I have never heard of these. Could it be that it was prescribed by a wandering doctor?" The old man looked at Xiao Chen suspiciously, "Moreover, the other medicinal materials are also great tonics. They are priceless. At your age, you don't have any diseases or disasters. Why do you want to eat these things?"
Xiao Chen sighed in his heart. I actually don't have them? It seems that the pharmacy I went to isn't an ordinary pharmacy. I didn't expect that I would find the right place. If I went to other pharmacies, I really couldn't buy these things!
Looking at the old man's resolute tone, it didn't seem like he was lying. Moreover, there was no need for him to lie. So, Xiao Chen continued to ask, "How much do the other medicinal materials cost?"
"I don't have many of the other medicinal materials in stock. Moreover, with your quantity, these medicinal materials cost at least three hundred thousand yuan. Young man, did you get cheated?" The old man frowned and said, "Listen to me. You don't have to eat these. If you have a problem with your body, find a proper hospital to have a look. Most of those wandering doctors are liars!"
"Okay, thank you, old man. I was just asking. Now it seems that it's really fake! It's just that my body is a little weak. This is also a prescription given to me by someone else. "Xiao Chen took back the prescription and nodded. However, he felt ashamed in his heart!
These medicinal herbs that could be bought in the market were worth more than 300,000 yuan, and there were so many medicinal herbs that could not be bought. In this way, one million yuan for one medicinal herb was really not a high price, especially when they gave him a 50% discount. How could he still doubt them?
After leaving the pharmacy, Xiao Chen sighed. He thought that the money would last him for a long time, but now it seemed that he would run out of money in a few days!
Money, ah, money, you murderous knife!
Xiao Chen had never been so short of money. If he had known that he could cultivate when he was in the Xiao family, he believed that even if Cheng Mengying's uncle died, Old Master Cheng would not easily break off the engagement, right?
Of course, even if he broke off the engagement, the Xiao family would not drive him out of the family easily, would they?
However, had it not been for the opportunity, Xiao Chen would not have met the Elder Heaven Ancestor and embarked on the awesome path of Cultivation.
When Xiao Chen returned to school, he saw two cars next to Cheng Mengying and Jin Beibei. One of them was a Porsche 991, and the other was an Audi A6L. Xiao Chen's eyelids twitched when he saw the cars!
He had a vague memory of the car, but he did not know where he had seen it before. However, Audi A6L was a very common car. It was not strange that Xiao Chen had seen it before.
The Porsche 991 was obviously Chen Jinpeng's. He was standing next to the car and talking to Shen Jingxuan. Shen Jingxuan did not interrupt but simply listened to him with a smile. That was exactly her personality. She was always warm to everybody. Her sunny smile and her gentle tone did not betray her real thoughts.
There was no telling whether or not she had accepted Chen Jinpeng. It was impossible for Xiao Chen not to care about the fact that his former goddess had become the fiancée of his former follower. However, some things had changed, and Xiao Chen was no longer the Xiao Chen in the past. Even if he killed Chen Jinpeng, the Shen Family would still choose another family for Shen Jingxuan to marry. Would he kill every family that appeared?
Cao Yuliang, on the other hand, was talking to Cheng Mengying. Compared to Shen Jingxuan, the lady's emotions were all written on her face. She looked at Cao Yuliang indifferently.
Xiao Chen stopped the car. Jin Beibei shouted happily, "Cousin-in-law, you're here!"
Cao Yuliang couldn't help but frown when he heard the word "Cousin-in-law". However, he couldn't tell whether Jin Beibei was sincere or sarcastic. Because Jin Beibei's thoughts were too unpredictable.
Xiao Chen nodded. At this moment, Cao Yuliang turned to look at Xiao Chen and said, "Xiao Chen, we've been fighting for so many years, but there's no clear winner. However, you were unexpectedly driven out of the family and lost the chance to compete with me for Cheng Mengying. What a pity …"
When Cao Yuliang said this, although he was looking at Xiao Chen, he was also looking at Cheng Mengying out of the corner of his eyes. He wanted to know what Cheng Mengying thought about Xiao Chen.
However, it was a pity that the lady's face was still cold. This made Xiao Chen feel slightly relieved. Cao Yuliang was secretly observing Cheng Mengying. Wasn't he the same? If he gave himself away in front of his sworn enemy and the Cheng family heard about it, it wouldn't be a joke.
However, the lady's emotions were only on the surface. In front of outsiders, she didn't care about Xiao Chen at all. Even when Xiao Chen came, she just took a glance at him and didn't pay attention to him anymore.
As for what Jin Beibei said, that was Jin Beibei's business. Practically no one dared to casually believe her words.
"Don't talk about those useless things. Where's my appearance fee?" Cao Yuliang was about to say something to make Xiao Chen lower his guard against him. He wanted to see if there was anything fishy between Xiao Chen, Cheng Mengying, and Jin Beibei. However, he didn't expect that he would be interrupted by Xiao Chen directly. As a result, he couldn't say what he had prepared. He was very upset!
"Give it to him!" Cao Yuliang looked at Chen Jinpeng.
"Here you are. This is a card worth 150,000 yuan. The password is six zeros." Chen Jinpeng handed a bank card to Xiao Chen.
"Okay. Ask me to come out next time. Remember, the minimum appearance fee is 150,000 yuan." Xiao Chen put away the bank card in satisfaction and said.
Cao Yuliang frowned. Xiao Chen was almost the same as the rumors said. He was still arrogant, but he had become greedy. However, it was normal. It was probably the first time that the young master of the Xiao family had tasted the feeling of being poor. It would be strange if he wasn't greedy.
"Then, can we go to eat now?" asked Cao Yuliang.
"I don't have a problem with that. Why don't you ask them?" Xiao Chen pointed at Cheng Mengying and Jin Beibei. When they were outside, he had to remember his identity as a servant and did not dare to usurp the host's position, although he was in charge of Cheng Mengying's meals every day.
"Humph! Chen Jinpeng, are you looking down on me? Even my servants have appearance fees. Why don't I, the host, have them? " Cheng Mengying hated Chen Jinpeng and Cao Yuliang. If it weren't for Shen Jingxuan, she wouldn't have bothered to come out.
"Well … Well …" Chen Jinpeng felt like crying. What's wrong with these people being assimilated by Jin Beibei? Why are they so greedy for money?
Cao Yuliang nodded slightly. Chen Jinpeng hurried to take out a bank card from his pocket and gave it to Cheng Mengying. "Yes, yes. How can I not have it? Haha, this is a 200,000 yuan card … The password is six zeros … "
It was the card that Chen Jinpeng had prepared to pay for the meal later, but he had given it away just like that.
"Only 200,000 yuan? It's not even enough to fill the gap between my teeth! " Cheng Mengying took over the bank card and gave it to Xiao Chen without even looking at it. "Take it. It's a reward from me!"
"Thank you, Miss!" Xiao Chen hurried to take the card. He didn't expect that Cheng Mengying would give him money. What a surprise! However, it didn't matter even if the Cheng family learned about it. After all, it could be regarded as a way for Cheng Mengying to humiliate Xiao Chen.
The corner of Chen Jinpeng's mouth twitched. Damn it. 200,000 yuan is still not enough! If you are not Shen Jingxuan's good friend and Brother Liang's goddess, you can go if you want! Get the hell out of here! You have already spent more than 300,000 yuan before the meal. Nobody who is with Jin Beibei is a good person!
"Shall we go now?" It's almost time. "Cao Yuliang looked at his watch and said," Xiao Chen, are you going to take my car? "
Shen Jingxuan would definitely take Chen Jinpeng's car, and Jin Beibei had a car. Even if Cao Yuliang wanted Cheng Mengying to take his car, it was impossible.
"I still need a driver. Xiao Chen, you drive!" Cheng Mengying said as she pointed at Pamela.
"Oh, okay." Xiao Chen nodded. He was a bit resigned.
Cao Yuliang wished he could exchange with Xiao Chen. It was a good opportunity to get close to his goddess. He didn't expect that Xiao Chen, a servant, would waste it!
The place where they ate today was a northern restaurant. The specifications couldn't be said to be the most luxurious, but it was also very unique. There was a three-story building with an independent parking lot in front of the door. It was also a well-known restaurant in this neighborhood.
Most importantly, it was one of the properties of the Cao family and Cao Yuliang's territory!
Cao Yuliang parked the car and waited for Chen Jinpeng, Shen Jingxuan, Xiao Chen, Cheng Mengying, and Jin Beibei to get off the car. Then, he entered the hotel with them.
"Young Master Cao, Young Master Chen, Miss Cheng, Miss Shen, and Miss Jin, welcome!" The doorman directly ignored Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen had eaten here before. Therefore, it was impossible that the doorman didn't know him. However, the news that he was kicked out of the Xiao family had obviously spread out, especially in the hotel of the Cao family. Therefore, these people started to look down on him.
However, Xiao Chen didn't care about that. When he was about to go in, Jin Beibei started to lose her temper, "Hey, you, why did you put me at the back? Do you mean that I'm worse than Cao Yuliang and Chen Jinpeng? I'm going to tell my grandpa that you are discriminating against the Jin family! You despise us! "
