"Master Jiang, don't worry, I will tell you this slowly." Mustache pulled Master Jiang aside, whispered in a low voice, and pointed at Su Xiao.
Su Xiao crossed her arms and sneered, even if she didn't listen, she knew what the mustache was talking about!
There is no doubt that Zi made it up out of nothing, saying that he agreed to sell the ginseng to him, so now the ownership right belongs to him!
Ming grabbed her head, and she really took the courage of a bear's heart and a leopard's courage!
He deceived himself as a little girl who had no one to rely on, so he planned to rob her, and then raised the price to Mr. Jiang, making a huge profit without any capital!
It's a pity that they have messed with the wrong person!
Today she insisted on slapping her face until it was full of peach blossoms, so that they would know why the flowers were so red!
After listening to the mustache shopkeeper's words, Mr. Jiang was a little unsure, and his suspicious eyes turned back and forth between Su Xiao and them.
"What he said is true?"
"You have agreed to sell this ginseng to them and also received a deposit?"
He wiped the sweat from his head and looked at Lidya Su.
Su Xiao didn't answer immediately, but just stared coldly at the little guy with a cunning look on his face.
The boy had a guilty conscience, but he still pretended to be confident and pushed out his skinny little chest.
"Oh? Did I charge a deposit? How much was it?" Su Xiao looked at the boy with a half-smile and asked.
"Ten, no, twenty taels of silver." The boy stuttered and replied.
"Oh, that's it. Now that I've received the deposit, have I written any documents for you or signed any contract?"
As soon as Su Xiao said these words, the boy looked at the mustache shopkeeper eagerly. The mustache shopkeeper shook his head slightly, and he quickly shook his head too like a rattle.
"If that's the case, well, not only do I have this century-old ginseng tree, but I also have a ten-thousand-year-old ginseng tree at home. I'll sell it to you too."
"The hundred-year ginseng sells for three thousand taels. I want to sell the thousand-year ginseng for thirty thousand taels. I don't need too much as a deposit. Just give me ten times that. Two hundred taels will be enough."
Su Xiao smiled and stretched out her white and tender palms in front of the two of them.
Before the mustache shopkeeper could react, the young man jumped in anger, "Bah! Thousand-year-old ginseng has turned into essence. How can you, a poor village girl, have it? I think you just want to cheat money!"
"Don't say two hundred taels. Even if it's two hundred taels, I can't give it to you!"
After he finished yelling with a red face and a thick neck, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. He looked around blankly, and the eyes of the people watching the excitement around him looked a little strange.
"Well, I didn't say this, he said it himself!"
"This guy and I are not related to each other. Yesterday was the first time we met!"
"We are neither relatives nor friends. You haven't even seen the shadow of ginseng, but you are willing to give me twenty taels of silver?"
"If the shopkeeper is doing this business, everyone should stop watching the excitement and line up to go to the drug store to get money from the shopkeeper!"
As soon as Su Xiao finished speaking, the spectators burst into laughter and began to boo.
"Yes, boss, I have ten thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum at home, so I will sell it to you. Please give me a deposit of one thousand taels."
"The shopkeeper is really a kind man. He can give people a lot of money just by saying a few words. Could it be that he has changed his profession to open a charity hall?"
After being ridiculed so mercilessly by the people around him, the boy's face had already turned the color of pig's liver, and the mustachioed shopkeeper couldn't help but turned around and wanted to run away.
There was a sneer on the corner of Su Xiao's lips, hehe, these two scoundrels want to leave when they see that they can't take advantage. How can it be so easy?
"Dear elders, those who work in medicine shops hold people's lives and lives in their hands, which is the most severe test of character and conscience."
"Everyone has seen today that the moral character of the shopkeeper and the waiter is so bad. Maybe the medicinal materials they sell are short of quality and are passed off as good ones. Everyone should be careful!"
She deliberately raised her voice and dragged out the ending so that everyone present could hear her clearly.
The people who were watching the excitement looked at each other in shock when they heard this. Some of those who had taken medicine from the drug store were a little frightened.
"This girl is right. My old lady fell ill a few years ago. She got the medicine here, but it took two months to get better. Maybe it was..."
"You'd better be careful. This life-saving thing won't let these unscrupulous people delay their lives!"
Listening to the discussions around her, Su Xiao squinted her eyes and smiled with satisfaction.
That black-hearted shopkeeper and his cunning little guy probably don’t know how terrifying the power of public opinion is!
Probably only when they find that their store's reputation is in shambles and can never be restored will they truly regret it!
"Miss Su, now that this matter has been resolved, let's leave quickly. My son is still waiting for this ginseng to kill him!"
Master Jiang breathed a sigh of relief when the storm subsided, and then shouted to Lidya Su anxiously.
"Okay, let's go now!" Su Xiao responded, followed Mr. Jiang out, and went to the restaurant to bring Zhui Feng over.
"Miss Su, I need to hire a carriage for you..." Before Mr. Jiang could finish his words, he saw that Su Xiao had already got on the horse neatly, and he immediately swallowed the second half of his words.
"Let's go, let's go, let's go!" He himself got on the horse, whipped down the horse, and rushed out of the road.
Mr. Jiang was wealthy, and his house was naturally located in the center of the county. Several people rode horses and arrived quickly.
"Miss Su, please!" Mr. Jiang got off the horse panting again and waved to Lidya Su.
Su Xiao nodded and looked sympathetically at the old father who was eager to save his son.
On this hot day, this guy is not young anymore, so he is really suffering a lot...
Originally she just came with the mentality of giving it a try, but now she is a little more determined.
Mr. Jiang took Su Xiao through several corridors and came to a very elegant courtyard.
There are no flowers in the yard, only a few clumps of green bamboo, which makes people feel particularly cool in midsummer.
Entering the bedroom, there were several maids and servants waiting beside the bed. Master Jiang lowered his voice and asked how his son was doing today.
"The young master vomited blood again today...he took two mouthfuls of bird's nest porridge and vomited it all out..." the maid murmured, lowering her head.
"Qingping..." Mr. Jiang stumbled and almost fell to the ground. He held one hand on the bedpost next to him and burst into tears.
Su Xiao frowned slightly, walked to the bed, and leaned over to observe the still sleeping Master Jiang.
Well, my face is dark and yellow, my thin cheeks are sunken, my lips are chapped, and I seem to be slightly dehydrated...
Before she could figure out what was going on, Jiang Qingping suddenly twitched a few times, coughed violently, and spat out a large mouthful of blood with a "wow" sound, almost spraying Su Xiao in the face!
