Chapter 1oo: Something Happened to the Nangong Family
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When the Su family was in dire straits, Su Qian had Gu Qingyou purchase the Su family’s elixirs at a low price.
However, Su Qian’s offer was extremely low, with only 200 gold coins for each elixir.
Thinking that the Su family’s cost to refine an elixir was more than this, the Su family was so angry that they were unwilling to cooperate with Gu Qingyou no matter what.
Gu Qingyou was not in a hurry. He just waited quietly. The Su family was frantically looking for someone who could buy their Soul Cleansing Elixirs at cost.
Unfortunately, the Su family had waited for two days, but no one came forward to buy their elixir.
Not to mention other factors, the market for low-grade medicinal elixirs in the imperial capital had already entered a saturated state. With all the attention being taken by Qian Yao Pavilion opened by that mysterious young master Gong Nan. At this time, ordinary forces did not dare to purchase the Su family’s medicinal elixirs at all, afraid that they would end up with useless elixirs on their hands.
Moreover, the elixirs were targeted by Feng Lin Auction House, so most people wouldn’t dare to snatch them.
There were only three days left until the payment date. The Su family was anxious like ants on a hot pan, while Su Qian was leisurely enjoying herself.
In the Su family’s beautiful courtyard, the children were playing in the garden. Su Qian was sitting in the pavilion with a smile on her face. Her body was covered with the soft and comfortable fur of a wild beast, like a spirit that had become refined. She was lazily listening to Liu Qi’s report.
“Master, the Su family has been unwilling to sell the elixirs to us. Today, Ancestor Su even went to look for Great Steward Gu and begged him to raise the price a little,” Liu Qi said.
“Don’t worry. After these five days, Hl make the Su family willingly sell the Soul Cleansing Elixir to me.” Su Qian smiled brightly as she looked at the two children chasing and playing in the courtyard. Her eyes were as soft as if they were about to melt. “How is the undercover agent of the Su family in our pharmacy doing?”
Liu Qi’s face immediately revealed a disgusted expression. “I get angry whenever I mention that person. Master, you don’t know, the Su family’s undercover is called Lu Ying. She looks like a fair and clean young lady, but she is unclean behind the scenes. She secretly stole a few of our Vitality Fortifying Elixirs. It was only until I said that we would check the accounts in two days, and she was afraid of being exposed, so she secretly put them back.”
“Su family’s people are expected to be so useless.” As Su Qian spoke, she took out a small bottle from her sleeve and placed it in front of Liu Qi. “This is an elixir that I have refined. Think of a way to get Lu Ying to steal this and send it to the Su family.”
Liu Qi took the pill and looked at it. She was so scared that her legs went soft. “Master, isn’t this a fifth-grade elixir?”
There were ripples on the elixir, which indicated that it was a fifth-grade elixir. Moreover, looking at the color and the quality of this elixir, it was a peak fifth-grade elixir. If it was auctioned, it could at least be sold for a sky-high price of 100,000 thousand taels of gold!
Seeing Su Qian nod, Liu Qi frowned in confusion. “Master, I don’t understand…”
Now that the Su family was finally about to turn things around, why would Miss deliberately give such a precious elixir to them?
Once the Su family obtained the elixir, they could turn their fortunes around and regain their former glory.
“The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Go ahead and make arrangements,” Su Qian said with a light smile.
“Yes, I will go back and make arrangements.” Liu Qi knew that her Master was not an ordinary person. She must have her reasons for doing this. As for the servants, there was no need to ask too many questions. They just had to follow the instructions.
As Liu Qi was about to leave, Qian Rong rushed into the imperial garden and shouted, “Master, something bad has happened.. Nangong family is in trouble!”
