Chapter 0004 Unexpected Fortune.

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

常五眼底闪过精光, 直截了当说道: "八百两蓝银, 不还价。"

The exchange rate between Blue Gold and Blue Silver is ten to one. In other words, the 500 taels of Blue Gold mentioned by Zhang Pinshou is equivalent to 5,000 taels of Blue Silver. Even the wealth left by Poison Douluo to Ye Tong cannot reach this amount!

Iron Ring Grass ?

Ye raised an eyebrow.

Zhang Pinshou's heart skipped a beat, suddenly realizing the affection he had shown, making the obviously ignorant young man in front of him aware. Perhaps, he might take advantage of this opportunity and demand a hefty price from him.

Chang Wu smiled and looked at Zhang Pinshou, politely saying, "The total price is 3,648 liang of blue silver. As a first-time guest, I took the liberty of waiving the small change for you. You only need to pay 3,600 liang of blue silver. I hope that all of you will come to our Wen Yao Zhai more often in the future to show your support."

Yè Tóng didn't even think about it and directly accepted it.

Okay.

Eight hundred taels ?.

Chang Wu's smile froze for a moment. Suddenly, he thought of Ye Tong's search for poisonous herbs in the past year. His eyes showed a strange expression as he said, "Iron Ring Grass is not a good thing for those who don't need it, but it is very precious for those who do. Just like you, Mr. Ye?"

Oh?

Are you sure you want these medicinal materials?

The medicine slave has lived here for a lifetime and has a strong sense of belonging. Excitedly agreeing upon hearing this, he hurriedly walked outside.

Suddenly !

Chang Wu swallowed his saliva and glanced at Zhang Pinshou and the others. He found that their expressions remained unchanged, without showing any signs of annoyance or anger. It seemed that they had just realized something. Chang Wu quickly took out a few silver bills and handed them to Ye Tong. With a smile on his face, he said, "How could I not give it to you? Brother Ye, you are the god of wealth for our Wen Medicine Hall. I wouldn't dare owe you any blue silver. In the future, I hope you can bring more distinguished guests to our place."

Zhang Pinshou swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his eyes showing a look of fear. It was only then that he realized that this was the territory of the poisonous old devil. The young man in front of him, who looked sickly, was a person of the poisonous old devil. The poisonous old devil could deceive anyone, but he must not deceive him! If the poisonous old devil found out one day, his Zhang family would be in big trouble.

This is ... ....

Uh-huh!

His expression changed slightly, as he vaguely realized that the influence of the two personalities had indeed changed his own personality a lot. Previously, he would never have been excited about such things. After all, he had seen and possessed a large number of visually impactful gold bricks, and wealth meant nothing to him in the previous life.

Ye Tong looked at Zhang Pinshou's eyes as if he was looking at an idiot. He couldn't understand why the people in this parallel world had such unique preferences. Can it be true that there are people who actually like coffins?

Zhang Pinshou picked up the purple coffin, held it in his hand for a moment, with a somewhat solemn expression, nodded and said, "Like it."

Returning to the Zhenyao Pharmacy, Ye Tong looked at the dilapidated buildings that had been burned beyond recognition. She went directly to the side room, took a few glances, and then called the medicine slaves to clean up the surroundings. They found a cauldron that was still intact and kicked the dirty purple coffin aside with their feet.

Chang Wu widened his eyes. He was certain that Mu Qianlan's lips did not move at all, yet the voice echoed in his heart. This indicated that the beautiful girl in front of him was a practitioner, and her strength should be very powerful.

You ... ...

Quite a lot!

Thank you, Mr. Xie.

He understands the rules and even the incomplete commission, but the money is settled secretly by the shopkeeper to the waiter after the guests leave. How could the waiter openly ask for it in front of the guests?

Although he urgently needs Iron Ring Grass, he currently only has a total of 280 taels of Blue Silver Grass. This is still far from the required 800 taels, several times short. The difference in money is too much, there is simply no room for negotiation. Ye Tong is also too lazy to stay any longer.

Zhang Pinshou remained silent for a moment before slowly saying, "Five hundred taels of blue gold."

Chang Wuman is full of joy. The more he sees Zhang Pinshou's arrogance, the more he feels that the other party is either rich or noble, a remarkable figure. Therefore, his humble attitude becomes even more apparent.

Zhang Pinshou responded casually with a hint of arrogance.

Yè Tóng's thoughts were seen through, but she didn't feel embarrassed. She calmly asked, "What's the price of this iron ring grass?"

Zhang Pinshou hurriedly asked, "How much does it cost?"

Five hundred taels of silver?

Confused!

Ye Tong pulled the tiger skin and waved the big flag, pretending to be unhappy and said: "Do you know about the Poison Devil Huo Lanqiu? If he finds out that you bought the Purple Coffin, which he treasures, for a price of one hundred taels of blue silver, he will be so angry that he will roast lamb legs in front of your ancestral grave. You are at least a wealthy person from the county town, don't you feel ashamed to be so stingy?"

Ye Tong curled her lips and said, "Sell."

Chang Wu was dumbfounded, looking at the expression on Ye Tong's face, as if he was looking at a monster.

Zhang Pinshou said solemnly, "That's right, it's 500 taels of blue gold, just as you said earlier. If you are satisfied, we can exchange money for goods."

Zhang Pinshou and Zhang Zhongying are both astute individuals, with a pensive look in their eyes, following Ye Tong as she leaves. On the other hand, Mu Qianlan furrows his brow, ponders for a moment, and then says to Chang Wuchuan, "Iron Ring Grass, do not sell it for now. Within three days, I will definitely come back to purchase it."

Hehe...

Zhang Zhongying showed an angry expression, but thinking of the notorious poison demon Huo Lanqiu, the anger in her heart instantly dissipated.

Gulu ... ...

Alright!

Ye Tong waved his hand. Despite having a lifespan of over a hundred years, he was still a young man. He said, "Mr. Zhang, I don't have much insight, so there's no need to deceive me. If you want to sell this Purple Coffin, then give me a price that you think won't anger the Poison Devil Huo Lanqiu. If I find the price satisfactory, we'll make the transaction and ensure that we won't cause any trouble for your Zhang family in the future."

You ... ...

Chang Wu stared at Ye Tong in amazement as she uttered name after name. His heart raced faster and faster, and his eyes began to shine. Especially when he heard Ye Tong say "three portions of each," he almost burst out laughing with joy.

Living two lives, he deeply understands the importance of money, especially in this more exciting yet cruel world. Money is what allows him to live longer. As for reputation...? Nowadays, life is so unpredictable, so why bother caring about the other party's pride?

Ye Tong turned his head and saw that he was staring at the purple coffin that he had kicked aside. His eyebrows raised slightly, and he asked with a half-smile, "Do you like it?"

Accompanied by Zhang Pinshou, suddenly made a surprised sound.

Upon hearing this, Ye Tong turned around and left directly.

Fourteen types of medicinal herbs, two precious spiritual fruits. Among them, six types of medicinal herbs and one type of spiritual fruit are extremely expensive, and you can't even think of buying them without a hundred taels of spirit silver for each.

Dear sir/madam!

A young man in a gray jacket, wearing a round top hat and with a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks, happily stepped across the door, ignoring the people around Chang Wu, took out a wooden box from his arms and said, "Master Wu, I have brought back the iron ring grass you asked me to buy, exactly the quantity you mentioned."

Zhang Pinshou sighed quietly and extended a finger, saying, "One hundred and twenty silver taels."

The young thief with a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks laughed a few times, satisfied with the broken silver he held, and left. Naturally, the pharmacy sells medicine and also collects medicine, and the profit comes from the difference between buying and selling.

Chang Wu looked at Ye Tong's eyes again, as if he was looking at a golden God of Wealth. After warmly welcoming everyone into the medicinal herb shop, he called for the shop assistants to fetch the herbs while calculating the total price of all the items with a calculator.

Yè Tóng doesn't have much contempt for the common saying "A person with milk is a mother" that looks down on others. Living in this world, everyone has their own principles of conduct... Common Five... It's just being materialistic.

However, there is a bottom line. For example, in order to repay the debt of saving Mu Qianlan from the fire, the cost of dispensing medicine will be waived. That is not something that can be settled with just a mere one hundred and two taels of silver.

Yè tóng mǐ qǐ shuāng yǎn, xiàng zhǐ jiǎohuá de húli, fǎnwèn dào: "Nǐ juédé tā néng zhí duōshǎo qián?"

The medicine slave had a satisfied smile on his aging face. His hunched body straightened up a bit as he took the five gold tickets handed to him by Zhang Zhongying. Then, he nodded at Ye Tong and said, "The amount is just right."

Chang Wu nodded in satisfaction, casually took out some silver from his pocket, and threw it to the young man, waving his hand and saying, "Here's your reward, go!"

Iron ring grass is a precious medicinal herb, with extremely strong cold nature and toxicity, belonging to a rare chronic poison. For ordinary people, iron ring grass is simply worthless, but for those in urgent need, it is extremely precious.

Zhang Zhongying took out a stack of silver bills, pulled out a few and handed them to Chang Wu, then took out a silver bill with a face value of one hundred liang and handed it to Ye Tong with an arrogant and domineering attitude.

A great deal worth thousands of taels of blue silver!

Ye Tong stuffed the silver ticket into his arms, then looked at Chang Wu, who was full of smiles, and said calmly, "Manager Chang, the guests have all given their rewards. Does Wen Yao Zhai not want to abide by the rules? Three thousand six hundred taels of silver, half of which is one hundred and eighty taels. I believe Manager Chang, as a prominent figure in Han Mountain City, will not break the rules for such a small amount of money and tarnish the reputation of Wen Yao Zhai, right?"

Ye Tong's lips were outlined, and she turned her head to scan the surroundings. She vaguely felt that there should be many good things hidden in these ruins. Although the old man had disappeared, with his status and taste, he wouldn't have let any trash enter his eyes! With this in mind, Ye Tong shouted loudly, "Yaonu, go and invite bricklayers and carpenters to rebuild this Zhenyao Pharmacy. Also, collect all the undamaged items in the house for me."

Of course.

He loves money.

... ...

At the door of the room.

Zhang Pinshou held the purple coffin, reluctant to part with it. With a sharp and penetrating gaze, he turned to Ye Tong and asked tentatively, "Young man, is this purple coffin for sale?"

Ye Tong showed a smile, about to agree, but suddenly her expression changed. She looked at Zhang Pinshou strangely and asked, "Are you sure it's Blue Gold? Not Blue Silver?"

Chang restrained the excitement and nodded solemnly as a response.

Ye Tong calmly asked, "Iron Ring Grass is not a good medicinal herb. Many evil individuals use it to poison others."

After a moment.

Just like Ye Tong, he needs Iron Ring Grass. If he can obtain it, then he will be able to refine the Cold Poison Pill, which will allow him to live a few more months.

Ye Tong suppressed the excitement in his heart and waved his hand, saying, "The Purple Coffin is already in your hands, Yao Nu, pay up."

常管事。

To know.

After all the medicinal materials needed to prepare the Hundred Herbs Solution were gathered and delivered to Zhang Zhongying, Chang Wu smiled so much that his face bloomed. He asked, "May I ask if you will pay with Blue Silver or with silver notes?"

Not prepared to give?

Ye Tong's eyes lit up, and her heart skipped a beat.
