Chapter 1831 - 1831 Slope
1831 Slope
But seeing the woman opposite him widen her eyes in anger and frown, her face—which was already as beautiful as a rose—turned a little red from excitement and anger. She was indeed beautiful.
She seems really angry. Yan Qing pondered. “Then… I won’t dodge next time.”
Standing directly opposite, I can also help her get back on her feet in time.
Xiao Ba was stunned for a moment before staring intently at Yan Qing to confirm that he was not teasing her. He was really saying this seriously.
She gasped in disbelief. Why is there such a man in this world?! He is straight, wooden, and unbelievably stupid! Why does he sound as if I can’t wait to pounce on him again?!!
Yan Qing was confused. Why does she seem angrier? Didn’t I just say what she wants?
He knew that this girl seemed to be quite hostile to him, so he had already tolerated her several times along the way to avoid conflict. But every time, the other party didn’t seem to appreciate it, and… the conflict became more and more intense.
“You! Just you wait!” Xiao Ba turned around and left angrily.
Her bright skirt fluttered in the wind, and she floated away like a lithe and enchanting butterfly. However… she had floated into the dazzling ‘Yue Manor.’
Shi Fang opened his mouth to remind her, but his nose hurt, so he let it go.
Wu Yao coughed. “Eighth Sister is used to being straightforward. Lord Yan Qing, don’t mind her.”
Yan Qing shook his head. Although I don’t understand why the other party is angry… If I have offended the other party, I will just give in. If it really doesn’t work, I can avoid it. What is there to argue about with a little girl?
…
When Chu Liuyue stepped into the residence, she wasn’t surprised to see festive red silk hanging everywhere.
Those who didn’t know better would think that something big was going to happen here. This time, even Rong Xiu’s footsteps paused for a moment.
Chu Liuyue suffocated for a moment before waving her hand. “San San, this decoration is too ostentatious. Have you forgotten what I told you in the past? You have to be humble when doing things. You have to—”
“Keep a low profile.” San San followed the advice. This time, he finally understood what she meant.
He immediately nodded in agreement. “Master is wise! Look, I’m so happy you’re here that I was confused!”
He patted his head and waved at the people beside him. “Men, remove these quickly! In the future, the entire Yue Manor will listen to Master and His Highness!”
Everyone responded in unison. “Yes!”
As soon as he finished speaking, they moved quickly. The efficiency was shocking.
Chu Liuyue raised an eyebrow. I thought that these servants were ordinary people, but at this moment, I realize that they seem to be quite strong? Although they aren’t top-notch, their movements are agile, and their steps are light. Even if it can’t be compared to the people at the Sky-Cloud Empire, they are already organized and have rules.
If there were more people and if their overall standards were higher, they might not be inferior to some third-rate families.
San San led them into the hall. When he heard Chu Liuyue ask about their backgrounds, he chuckled and said, “Master is right; they were indeed carefully selected by me. All of them have some talent and strength. Moreover, you can rest assured that before recruiting them, I had already investigated them in detail. They’re all clean and won’t cause trouble.”
Speaking of how he could find so many… It was naturally because people came to Peach Blossom Dock every day.
There were basically no weaklings who could enter this place. It was already not bad to be chosen by him.
Chu Liuyue looked him up and down. “I think a few of them seem to be slightly stronger than you. How did you alone… make them so obedient to you?”
San San chuckled. Knowing that she was saying that he wasn’t cultivating properly, he didn’t mind and explained, “Of course, it’s not enough with my strength alone. However, you’ve forgotten one thing: I opened a pharmacy! In Peach Blossom Dock, any better natural treasures and medicinal pills are very expensive. Not everyone can afford them. If they stay here and become members of Yue Manor, they can obtain these things at an extremely low price. This is an opportunity that many people want!”
I see. There are all kinds of people in Peach Blossom Dock. Countless people want to make a name for themselves here and become experts, but only if they are alive. If they are alive, everything is fine. If they’re dead… then there will be nothing left.
No wonder San San could accumulate a large amount of wealth in such a short time. Isn’t it profitable to do this business at Peach Blossom Dock?
“Then, what’s going on with Black Sword Sect?”
If others wanted to get some good medicinal herbs from San San, they would either have to pay with themselves or a large amount of money. However, the people from Black Sword Sect directly asked the store to send it to their door every month.
If the medicine wasn’t prepared in advance, they would draw their sword and injure someone.
It was simply unbelievable that they were so arrogant.
At the mention of this, San San’s expression turned bitter. He glanced at Cen Yi, who was standing beside him, and frowned. “Actually, I’ve mentioned this to Big Brother before. Originally, my medicine shop was running well, but ever since the appearance of Black Sword Sect, they directly asked me to send things to them. Originally, I was unwilling, but those people…”
A hint of wariness flashed in his eyes. “Those people are quite capable and are really not easy to deal with. Helpless, I could only agree.”
Chu Liuyue leaned back in her chair and fell into deep thought. San San values money very much. It’s very difficult to deduct a single cent from him, let alone take away so many expensive herbs.
This is blatant bloodletting, but in this situation, even San San has endured it. It can be seen how domineering the other party is. If he hadn’t been forced, I believe that San San wouldn’t have agreed to do this.
Rong Xiu raised his eyebrows slightly and asked casually, “Since they’re so interested in your pharmacy, why didn’t they just take it? Instead, they kept you as a middleman?”
Isn’t this too troublesome?
