Chapter 104: Selling Lingzhi
Chapter 104: Selling Lingzhi
Cheng Jiuhe saw her zoning out, took her hand, and once again took half of the money and placed it in her palm.
"Brother might not have much money, but it’s more than enough to take care of my sister. If you run out of money, brother will send you an allowance," he said.
Mengyu felt a bit embarrassed, "Brother, how can I feel alright taking your money..."
Cheng Jiuhe held back but eventually couldn’t help but reach out and stroke her hair, "Brother has even accepted your precious Yuan Nourishing Pill, why would you care about this little bit of money?"
This feeling, it is simply too good.
Mengyu thought about it, realized she indeed didn’t have any money on her, so she accepted the money her brother gave, looked up and sweetly smiled, "Thank you, brother!"
Cheng Jiuhe once again lamented that his sister was so sweet and lovely, it was really too much of a bargain for Gu Dongxing.
However, thinking that he had become Gu Dongxing’s uncle, he couldn’t help but feel secretly proud.
He didn’t realize that he had already set foot on the path of doting on his sister like a madman.
With Cheng Jiuhe around, the property transfer procedures weren’t time-consuming, and Mengyu, looking at her own property certificate, felt very excited—she finally owned a proper Siheyuan in City B.
Still, she was thinking about the money issue and decided to sell one of the Lingzhi.
Cheng Jiuhe noticed it was nearly twelve o’clock, so he said, "Sister, let me take you out for lunch."
After lunch, with nowhere to go for the time being, Cheng Jiuhe drove around the streets and alleys to familiarize Mengyu with the city.
Yet, he didn’t know that Mengyu, as Ah Piao in her past life, followed Jiang Huaiyu in this city for nineteen years. Where hadn’t she been?
When the car passed by a traditional medicine shop called Yutang Spring, Mengyu suddenly called out to stop the car.
Cheng Jiuhe parked the car and asked with curiosity, "What’s wrong, do you need to see a Chinese medicine doctor?" Most big traditional medicine shops have doctors available for consultations.
However, Mengyu said, "No, I want to sell some medicine."
While Cheng Jiuhe was finding a place to park, Mengyu walked into Yutang Spring, "Excuse me, is your boss here?" she asked.
The middle-aged woman selling the medicine glanced at Mengyu and seeing that she was just a young girl, couldn’t help but look down on her a bit, "You can tell me what you need."
Mengyu thought for a moment, then took out a wooden box from her backpack (actually from her storage talisman) which naturally came out of the storage talisman.
She opened the wooden box halfway, shook it in front of the middle-aged woman, then quickly closed and put it away, looking at the woman, "I’m here to sell some medicinal materials. Are you in charge of this kind of transaction?"
Mengyu walked into Yutang Spring and not elsewhere to sell the medicine because she knew that this shop was reputed to be honest with no deception, a reputation held for a century.
The middle-aged woman, upon seeing the Lingzhi, and just from the scent alone feeling refreshed and invigorated, knew that the Lingzhi was of premium quality.
She quickly put on a smile, "Please wait, I’ll call the boss to come over."
Once Cheng Jiuhe had parked the car, he came in. The middle-aged woman, upon seeing Cheng Jiuhe, was startled, and her expression became even more respectful.
Mengyu was inwardly shocked; it seemed the influence of the Cheng Family was significant.
It didn’t take long for the middle-aged woman to hang up the phone, "The boss will be here within ten minutes."
In less than ten minutes, a man over fifty hurried in, wiping sweat off his forehead, and asked the middle-aged woman, "Where’s the boss selling the medicine?"
As he asked, he looked at the people inside the shop, and his gaze eventually fell on Mengyu and Cheng Jiuhe. When he saw Cheng Jiuhe, his eyes flickered slightly.
The middle-aged woman pointed at Mengyu, "This customer here."
The boss seemed surprised; he thought Cheng Jiuhe was the one selling the medicine.
