Mr. Wen's face trembled, but not long after, Chu Lingyue saw him in the living room.

After looking her over and over, Mr. Wen didn't dare to take another look at her and saw that she was a handsome young man. He immediately asked about the important matter:

"Master Lin is here late at night. Do you have anything important to discuss?"

Following Chu Banshi's usual posture, Chu Lingyue only added a bit of elegance to it and had a strong enough aura.

"Lin just returned to Beijing from outside the country. He heard that Luocheng Pharmaceuticals was making huge profits, so he wanted to get a share of the pie. As one of the few capable people in Luocheng who can control medicinal materials, Boss Wen should know more about this business. I don't know.

What do you think of the monopoly on medicinal materials?"

Mr. Wen is a monkey spirit. He follows the Zhang family to supply medicine, just because the Zhang family gives more money. Once the other party becomes big, no one will be able to monopolize the entire market, and he can't find the next one.

But now that Chu Lingyue asked this question, Master Wen, who had originally guessed that she was from the same clan as the Master of Yulong Division, changed his mind within three seconds.

If you can get involved with that God of Death, you will only earn more in the future!

Said in his heart, Mr. Wen stroked his beard:

"From a businessman's point of view, monopoly is excellent, but from a buyer's point of view, it may not be a long-term solution. But now the entire Luo City's medicinal materials are in the hands of the Zhang family, and there are people behind his family in the palace.

People are willing to spend money to pay for this...so those of us who have the goods can only work behind them."

Mr. Wen felt that it was not enough to put himself on the passive side, so he made some insinuations about Zhang's Chamber of Commerce's speculation on drug prices, and in a few words he portrayed himself as an innocent person.

Little did he know that in Chu Lingyue's eyes, there was only disgust and disgust for people like him.

He took out ten silver notes from his waist and pushed them to Mr. Wen's hand along with the black jade pendant. Chu Lingyue smiled lightly:

"I am the most idle one in my family. Seeing that my father is about to return home, in order to prevent him from making fun of me again, I can only be short-sighted and take advantage of the opportunities I can seize."

The moment he saw the banknote, Mr. Wen's eyes nearly rolled out of his head.

That's a banknote worth fifty thousand taels!

This much money, plus a piece of priceless black jade, is enough to buy the medicinal materials collected by his ancestors for eight generations!

"This... Mr. Lin is so grand! You have such a far-sighted vision, I can't wait to cooperate with you!"

"Lin is new here and is not familiar with all kinds of circles in the capital. The only thing he has is a few bad money. I hope Boss Wen will mention me more in front of his allies in the future. I hope that when the sun rises tomorrow, I can hear people from all over the capital.

The news that all medicinal materials belong to me, Lin Xiao."

After saying that, Chu Lingyue cupped his hands and left. As soon as he left, he heard Mr. Wen's ecstatic exclamation coming from the living room.

Wen Liancai lives up to his name. His only partner is money. As long as the money is in place, there is absolutely no one he cannot win over.

The next day, Chu Lingyue dressed up as Jin Yue and arrived at Miaochun Hall early, but the storm last night had already spread throughout Luo City.

"Ah Yue! Zhang's Chamber of Commerce failed to succeed this time. I heard that a powerful man with huge financial resources came back to Luo City last night and bought out all the medicinal materials in the capital overnight! Zhang's Chamber of Commerce is now in the process of

They have to worry about the medicinal materials that will be supplied to the Tai Hospital in three days, let alone their own and their allies. Tsk, they really deserve it."

After hearing Liu Qinian's description, Chu Lingyue's eyes became darker.

The Zhang family is barely successful at the beginning, and what really wants them to "die first" is yet to come.

All the medicinal materials were detained under the name of the mysterious identity Lin Xiao for two days, and Chu Lingyue did not let out any news.

The Zhang family, who were anxious to pay tribute, had no choice but to go to all the houses that had supplied them with medicine in the past. As a result, they checked door to door, and only the impatient Wen Liancai could give them sporadic information.

"Since when has there been a man named Lin Xiao in Luo City? It must be that old immortal Wen Liancai who is behind this!"

Zhang Tianqi shouted angrily.

Mr. Zhang suddenly became even more angry when he looked at his useless son.

"If Wen Liancai had the financial resources to do mischief, why would he have been following your Zhang family for so many years?"

Who is it, who has the financial resources to go against his Zhang family?!

He was so angry that his chest was tight, and Mr. Zhang couldn't think of a clue even though he was squeezing his head.

"Master! The man named Lin Xiao has been found! He is auctioning medicinal materials at Guheji!"

As soon as the servant informed him, he immediately took the Zhang family and his son to Guheji.

At the tea stall opposite the auction table, Chu Lingyue, who was dressed as a tea guest, saw them coming, went out from the side door and changed her clothes, becoming a passerby who blended into the crowd without seeing anything wrong.

"It's not an auction? Where are the people?" Mr. Zhang asked angrily, grinding his teeth.

There were a lot of medicinal materials on the table, which made Zhang Tianqi almost have pink eye.

But this is Guheji, with four killers stationed there, and with the new order issued by Pavilion Master Ji Beiye, no matter how bastard he is, he doesn't dare to act wild here.

After all, if he lost his life here, Ji Beiye would have the right to explain it. It was an open secret that Yulongsi was at odds with him, so if something happened, his little life would most likely be reduced to cannon fodder.

"Should we sell it or not?" Mr. Zhang couldn't stand still.

The goods will be delivered to Tai Hospital before 00:00 tomorrow.

Any moment of delay will cause you to lose your head.

"Coming, coming..." It was Lu Chenyu who came forward.

She glanced at the crowd and saw that the handsome guy who had been looking for her three hours ago was not there. She felt a little uneasily and touched her pocket, which was stuffed with gold cakes.

A sense of solidity came to her heart, and she chuckled, "Master Lin said these are not valuable things, and he was too lazy to supervise them, so he hired me to watch the place. All the medicinal materials on the place will be bought by the one with the highest price, and there is no upper limit!"

Looking at the little guy's greedy eyes, Chu Lingyue secretly smiled and shouted at the top of her lungs: "I'll pay ten thousand taels!"

Knowing that a place like this cannot rely on authority, Mr. Zhang was afraid that he would not be able to buy anything. When someone asked for a price, he shouted without thinking: "Thirty thousand taels! I want them all!"

"One hundred thousand."

"One hundred and fifty thousand!"

"Two hundred and fifty thousand."

"...Three hundred thousand!"

As Chu Lingyue and Mr. Zhang's bids got higher and higher, the booing people on the court became quieter.

Although there are enough medicinal materials, they are not worth so much money in total. Even if someone really has money to buy them, they will lose money if they sell them.

Except Mr. Zhang who needs this batch of goods more than anyone else.

"Four hundred thousand." Chu Lingyue continued to bid casually.

"Four hundred and fifty thousand!" Mr. Zhang's face turned red, as if he was going to vomit blood in the next second.

Zhang Tianqi was dumbfounded: "Dad, if you buy these medicines for 450,000 taels, we will lose money! Don't you think about it, these medicines originally belong to our family! Didn't you really buy them and give them away 450,000 taels for no reason?"

"

It's rare that this kid has a brain.

Chu Lingyue thought to herself, raised her eyebrows and added: "Seven hundred and ninety thousand taels, no more money."

As soon as these words came out, Mr. Zhang's veins were rough and his eyes were full of ice and sharpness when he looked at her.

Chu Lingyue disagreed.

The Zhang family has made fortunes in various parts of the country over the years, with liquid assets of 800,000 taels. The profits of shops and chambers of commerce in various places add up to 200,000 taels.

This wave will cause heavy bleeding for them, but it will not lead to death.

However, their outrageous behavior offended many people, and Concubine Zhang's dominance in the harem also aroused dissatisfaction from all parties.

If the imperial medicine cannot be supplied tomorrow, someone will definitely use it as an excuse. By then, the life of the entire Zhang family may not be saved.

Chu Lingyue, who had calculated every move, gradually smiled at ease, waved her hand to Lu Chenyu, who was also dumbfounded, and said: "Since no one bids, let's finalize it."

"...eight hundred thousand taels."

Without any suspense, Mr. Zhang still spoke.

Under everyone's horrified gaze, the Zhang family left in dejection with "eight hundred thousand taels".

This magical auction soon spread throughout Los Angeles.

"Oh my god... Eight hundred thousand taels, what kind of concept is this?" Qiu Ri was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth for a long while looking at the astonishing number written down in his private account.

Except for her, all the confidants in the shop were also silent.

I have to sell my life to grandma for thousands of years to earn enough?

"Speaking of which, grandma really gave us little people a bad breath! The Zhang family has been domineering for so many years and killed countless people, and now the retribution has finally come! Let's see how they continue to fight for a while!"

"A moment and a half?" Chu Lingyue smiled.

She wants it, but the Zhang family will never turn over in this life.

Something was wrong from her expression, so Qiu Ri asked in a low voice, "Grandma, what other plans do you have?"

"Click the backyard so you can put things in."

Two more days passed.

The Zhang family, which successfully solved the drug supply crisis, negotiated with their allies in the chamber of commerce to come up with a plan to double the overall price of pharmaceuticals in order to recover as soon as possible, and implemented it non-stop.

As a result, early the next morning, a team of drug dealers claiming to be from outside the world appeared in Luo City with various high-quality medicinal materials, and openly formed an alliance with Miaochundang.

Half a day later, Miaochundang posted the price list of medicinal materials registered in the Yamen at the door.

When he learned that the price had been set by the government and any price exceeding the official price would be fined ten times the private price, Mr. Zhang became furious that day.

"Shopkeeper, don't you feel sad when such good medicine is sold at such a low price?" Liu Qinian felt a little reluctant to give up while holding the extremely difficult-to-cultivate Artemisia vulgaris.

"Medicines are meant to cure diseases and save lives. The high price makes them difficult to grow. Those who plant and cultivate them are willing to sell them at low prices, so I have nothing to feel bad about."

Trying to remember what his master had told him in advance, Shopkeeper Jia said seriously.

"It's because I'm too worldly... Ah Yue once said something in general, but I don't remember it." Liu Qinian murmured, somewhat embarrassed.

Chu Lingyue, who was grinding the medicine, only smiled slightly after hearing this:

"Some people live for the romance, and some live for a hot meal. In essence, they all live their lives with their heart. There is no need to turn to anyone, just be yourself."

As soon as he finished speaking, an official entered the door holding an edict: "The empress's decree is announced, and Miaochun Hall will receive it!"
