Last night, Cheng Mengying didn't know what Ye Xiaoye was doing, but she didn't fall asleep until 12 AM. She didn't know what Ye Xiaoye was doing.
After breakfast, Jin Beibei's car arrived and parked at the gate of the villa. Cheng Mengying threw 100 yuan to Xiao Chen and got on Jin Beibei's Beetle.
After Cheng Mengying left, Ye Xiaoye happened to come in for breakfast. Seeing that Xiao Chen took 100 yuan, Ye Xiaoye couldn't help but show a disdainful look. Perhaps, she felt that Xiao Chen was living under someone else's roof and had no dignity!
However, how could Ye Xiaoye know Xiao Chen's difficulties? Shrugging, Xiao Chen didn't take it seriously and followed her out of the villa.
Yesterday, when Xiao Chen went to the convenience store, he saw a relatively large pharmacy that also sold medicinal ingredients. It seemed that the scale was not small, so Xiao Chen decided to buy the medicinal ingredients that Elder Sky mentioned.
"Sir, what can I do for you?" As soon as Xiao Chen pushed the door and walked into the pharmacy, a melodious voice like that of an oriole in the morning rang.
Xiao Chen raised his head and saw a girl in a white coat looking at him with a smile.
The girl was about 18 or 19 years old. She didn't have any makeup on her face and had a clean smile, which made Xiao Chen feel refreshed. This girl was like a sister next door, which reminded Xiao Chen of Kerr Lin.
But in comparison, the young girl was graceful and unrestrained, while Lin Ke-er was extremely shy.
Seeing that Xiao Chen was staring at her face, the girl couldn't help but blush. However, seeing that Xiao Chen was wearing a school uniform and didn't look like a hooligan, she felt that she might have misunderstood Xiao Chen.
"Is there … something on my face?" The girl asked uncertainly.
"No." Xiao Chen shook his head and also realized that he was a bit rude, which made him feel ashamed! Even though Xiao Chen had seen too many beauties, he couldn't help but admit at this moment that the pure beauty of this young girl was very unique. It was like a clear spring, although clear, it was sweet to taste. "I'm sorry, everyone loves beauty. I thought I was looking at a goddess's photo on the computer …"
Xiao Chen's words made the girl a bit dumbfounded! He … didn't have to be so frank, right? However, because of Xiao Chen's frankness, the girl didn't hate him. Instead, she felt that Xiao Chen was quite sincere and interesting. Besides, Xiao Chen was right. Everyone loved beauty. Who didn't like being complimented by others?
"It doesn't matter … I'm not a goddess." The girl was a bit embarrassed. "It doesn't matter."
"I want to buy some medicinal herbs. Isn't there a master who specializes in dispensing medicine here?" Xiao Chen looked at the girl's appearance. She should be a salesperson here. She could sell some finished medicine, but this kind of thing was usually handled by someone in every pharmacy.
"I am!" The girl was a bit unhappy with Xiao Chen's belittling. She stretched out her hand and said, "Give me the prescription!"
Xiao Chen was stunned, but he still gave the prescription that he copied to the girl. His heart was puzzled. This girl also knows how to dispense medicine?
The girl took the prescription and looked at it. At first, she didn't think much of it. But as she read, her face suddenly became strange. Even the way she looked at Xiao Chen changed!
Xiao Chen also felt the girl's eyes. He suddenly felt a bit nervous. What kind of eyes is this? Is there a problem with this prescription? Could it be a prescription for aphrodisiac? Otherwise, why would this girl have this kind of eyes?
However, Elder Heaven Ancestor couldn't lie to himself. So, Xiao Chen still asked, "What's wrong? Is there a problem with the prescription? "
"You … Are you sure you want this prescription? And you want five? "The girl looked up and down at Xiao Chen. It made Xiao Chen have a kind of creepy feeling.
"Is there something wrong with it?" Xiao Chen asked tentatively.
"Do you know how much this medicinal herb costs? And … You actually want five? " The girl really couldn't figure out what Xiao Chen wanted to do. "Moreover, I can't understand your prescription at all. What is the use of these medicinal herbs when combined together? Are you sure you want it?"
"How much?" Xiao Chen also realized the seriousness of the problem. Looking at the girl's tone and expression, this medicinal herb is probably expensive. "But I'm sure I need it."
"According to the shop's price, this medicinal herb would cost at least twenty thousand. Five would be one hundred thousand!" The girl said, "Are you sure you didn't randomly see a prescription somewhere? Of course, I'm not doubting you. It's for your own good! "
Xiao Chen looked at the girl's serious expression. He was a little helpless. He didn't think that the medicinal herbs would be so expensive. One medicinal herb costs twenty thousand. Five medicinal herbs would cost one hundred thousand. It seems that the ten thousand in his hand is simply not enough to do anything!
What should I do? Borrow money from Miss? If he said it clearly, Miss would definitely lend it to him. But as for cultivation, Xiao Chen really didn't want to say it. Even if he had the strength, he couldn't say it for the time being!
It wasn't that he didn't trust Miss, but he was afraid that Miss didn't have a deep social experience. If she revealed a flaw, then it wouldn't be worth it.
"Yan Yan, so early. Is there a customer?" An old voice sounded. As the voice sounded, an old man wearing reading glasses, a white beard, and a Tang suit walked out from the back of the shop.
"Grandpa, this customer wants to get medicine, but his prescription …" Hong Yan handed the prescription to the old man who had just walked out. "I don't understand it, and the medicinal herbs inside are very expensive."
"Oh, let me see." The old man took the prescription and stroked his beard. He sat on a chair and carefully looked at Xiao Chen's prescription.
Although the old man didn't show any expression on his face, a storm was brewing in his heart. However, after he finished reading it, he looked at Xiao Chen without batting an eyelid. "Young lad, where did you copy this prescription from? Do you know the use of it? "
Xiao Chen's heart skipped a beat. He was an astute person. The old man did not say that the herbs in this prescription were expensive and useless like Hong Yan. Instead, he asked about the origins and uses of the prescription. Could it be that this old man could understand it?
But that shouldn't be the case. This is a prescription that cultivators use to temper their bodies. How could this old man understand it? However, Xiao Chen didn't dare to expose it. He just said, "I can't reveal the origin of this prescription, and it's hard to say what it does …"
Xiao Chen simply didn't make up a lie. With the old man's appearance, if he could understand it, then he understood it. If he couldn't, then he understood it. Xiao Chen didn't need to lie. A lie could be seen through at a glance.
"Do you understand the value of this prescription?" asked the old man.
"Just now, Miss Hong said that it costs twenty thousand per pair, and five pairs require one hundred thousand," said Xiao Chen.
"Hehe, Yan Yan, did you add this bitter fruit into the calculation?" asked the old man with a smile.
"Grandpa, I've never heard of bitter fruit, and the shop doesn't have it, so I didn't calculate it." Hong Yan shook her head and was a little embarrassed. "Grandpa, is this medicine expensive?"
"It's a small matter if it's expensive. The bitter fruit is hard to find!" The old man said with a smile, "If it weren't for an old friend of mine asking me to help collect it, I wouldn't have it, but I happen to have some left over."
When Xiao Chen heard it, he suddenly showed a bitter face. The previous medicine was already expensive enough. Now that a bitter fruit was added, it seemed that it was even more valuable than a city. Xiao Chen could only ask weakly, "Grandpa, how much does this medicine cost?"
"If you can tell me the origin and use of this prescription, I can give you five pairs for free!" The old man looked at Xiao Chen with a smile.
"This …" Xiao Chen was shocked. Although the temptation was in front of him, Xiao Chen wasn't a person who only cared about immediate benefits. He just hesitated for a moment and shook his head decisively. "Grandpa, I appreciate your kindness, but I really can't say it."
"Hehe, then there's no other way. Yanyan has already said that this medicine costs twenty thousand without the bitter fruit. With the bitter fruit, it's at least fifty thousand!" When the old man said this, he saw Xiao Chen's bitter face. He smiled slightly, changed the topic, and continued, "However, I can give you a discount this time. Ten thousand yuan per pair."
"Really?" Xiao Chen couldn't believe his ears. "Grandpa, are you kidding? I don't need to pay anything? "
"No need, ten thousand yuan." The old man shook his head.
Xiao Chen took a deep breath and solemnly took out an envelope from his shirt pocket. Although he was reluctant to part with it, this was the only property he had on him. However, the old man's 10,000 yuan was already a great discount!
Xiao Chen wasn't afraid that the old man would lie to him. After all, Hong Yan had said before that this medicine cost twenty thousand yuan without the bitter fruit. The old man only took ten thousand yuan. Obviously, it was a huge discount.
"Thank you, grandpa. I will earn money as soon as possible to buy the remaining four pairs. This is all I have today. I can only buy one pair." Although Xiao Chen wondered why the old man would give him a discount, Xiao Chen was sure that it must be because of his own prescription. This old man was likely to see something in it, but Xiao Chen wasn't sure what he saw.
The old man wasn't polite. He accepted Xiao Chen's ten thousand yuan, and then said to Hong Yan, "Yanyan, you take care of the other medicinal materials on this prescription. I will go get the bitter fruit!"
"Okay, grandpa." At this moment, Hong Yan looked at Xiao Chen with an even stranger gaze. Although she didn't ask, her grandpa didn't say anything after seeing the prescription. He only asked about its origin. Obviously, this prescription wasn't a useless prescription in her eyes. Moreover, her grandpa actually gave Xiao Chen a big discount, which made Hong Yan feel strange!
The price of her family's pharmacy wasn't expensive. On the contrary, it was very cheap. Hong Yan's evaluation of Xiao Chen was already based on the lowest price, but her grandpa actually gave him a 20% discount, which made Hong Yan somewhat puzzled!
