Chapter 97: Chapter 97: Spending a Fortune to buy Horse Bones_1

Lui Muyi pointed at Su Family’s sisters with a cold voice and said, "You damn girls, who can decide on the repayment of the debt?"

Su Xian’er and Su He’er one by one looked at Su Yue’er.

Seeing that Su Yue’er was still unconscious, the corner of Lui Muyi’s mouth revealed a smirk, "Come on, get a bucket of water and splash her awake for me!"

"Yes."

A group of lackeys quickly agreed and the water was brought over. A bucket of water was poured down straight to Su Yue’er.

"Achoo!"

Su Yue’er was immediately drenched, unable to stop shaking her whole body, she sneezed and slowly regained consciousness.

As soon as she opened her eyes and saw Lui Muyi, she turned pale and her body shivered, curling up in fear.

"You’re awake? Good. Pay up and get lost quickly, to save me the trouble of having to look at you."

Lui Muyi looked contemptuous, his tone devoid of any pity or tenderness.

Scared, Su Xian’er and others were at a complete loss.

Su Yue’er was trembling all over, her body shook like a sieve, "It’s not that we don’t want to pay the money, but there’s no money left..."

"No money? That’s easy, all the jewelry and money you have on you, give it all to me! Everyone be peaceful, otherwise my brothers here will have to get their hands dirty, don’t blame them if they hurt you delicate ones."

As soon as he spoke, Overlord Tiger and the other lackeys closed in, surrounding them, all with fierce looks on their faces.

"You! Wah..."

Su Yue’er could no longer bear this kind of blow. She covered her face, cried aloud, and turned to run!

However, she was surrounded by the lackeys and unable to break through. She could only lean on Su He’er and cry in heartbreak.

"Do you like crying so much? If you don’t pay up, you’ll have plenty of days left to cry."

Lui Muyi feigned innocence, "Oh! This piece of clothing isn’t bad and seems to be worth a few taels of silver. Take it off and use it to offset the debt!"

Su Yue’er was so frightened that her face turned a ghastly green and she stopped crying.

"I’ll pay! Isn’t it enough that I’ll pay?"

After a while, all the money and jewelry from their cousins were taken away. Even the two bolts of cloth given by the lady boss of the textile shop were given to Su Pan’er to make up a total of twenty-seven taels of silver.

"Is the amount enough? Can we leave now?"

Su Yue’er’s face was ashen and she was shaking all over, "Can. We. Leave. Now?"

Su Pan’er recounted the money over and over again, her brows furrowed, "Counting it all, it only totals to twenty-five taels of silver. Fine! I suppose I’m out of luck, twenty-five taels it is, you can leave!"

Without uttering another word, Su Yue’er turned around as soon as Su Pan’er finished her sentence. The other cousins quickly followed.

As they passed through the crowd, Su Yue’er suddenly turned back.

Her eyes filled with fierce, venomous hatred, she fixed her gaze firmly on Su Pan’er. She snorted coldly and without saying a word, she strode away.

Su Pan’er, all the humiliation today is caused by you!

I swear to avenge this grudge!

Even if it costs me everything, I will make you taste the bitterness of a life worse than death.

Everything you value, you like, you care about, I, Su Yue’er, will take it all! Leaving you completely destitute, to be tormented in despair and loneliness, to the point of death!

Just you wait!

Qin Yi naturally noticed the look on Su Yue’er’s face as she left, and he looked worriedly at Su Pan’er, hesitant to speak.

Su Pan’er suddenly laughed!

A dog that can bite doesn’t bark, Su Yue’er is now that kind of dog!

But then again, a dog is just a dog!

Is she really going to be afraid of a dog?

Looking back, she met Old Xue’s scrutinizing eyes and immediately laughed, "I’m sorry to keep Old Xue waiting so long. Could you please move to the teahouse nearby and check these medicinal ingredients as well? How about it?"

"Nice, nice! You, this ugly girl, are thoughtful, unlike Little Muyi, who stood by watching and did nothing while I was standing there all that time." Old Xue laughed heartily.

Everyone walked into the teahouse and took their seats.

Lui Muyi was taken aback, "Old Xue, you’re showing favoritism. I’ve always been very respectful to you!"

"You little brat, I haven’t even mentioned what you did yet!"

Old Xue’s face fell: "The little girl may have overreacted, but she is a well-bred young lady. You, on the other hand, praised her to the skies in one breath and then damned her to hell in the next!"

He gave earnest advice, "Aren’t you afraid she’ll hate you for life if you toy with her like that? Remember, do not trouble trouble until trouble troubles you. Leave room for later. Do you understand?"

"What does it have to do with me? I didn’t do anything! Old Xue, you sure do talk a lot!"

Lui Muyi looked at Old Xue with an innocent expression, deliberately shifting the topic to Su Pan’er: "Let’s focus on the important things! Look, the medicinal ingredients are ready."

Naturally, Su Pan’er wouldn’t pass up the chance to secure such a big customer.

During the time she had been seated, she had taken out all the medicinal ingredients and placed them on the table. She smiled and said, "Old Xue, look at these medicinal ingredients. Are they to your satisfaction?"

All these ingredients were harvested by her from the Deicide Mountain. The efficacy and quality were top-notch, so Su Pan’er wasn’t afraid of Old Xue’s inspection.

Since Su Pan’er started taking out the medicinal ingredients, he had been eyeing them, particularly the Huangjing or polygonatum.

"Perfect, just perfect! This type of Huangjing is exactly what I’ve been looking for!"

"So... are you satisfied?"

Su Pan’er continued to ask.

"Satisfied, extremely satisfied!"

Old Xue’s eyes glittered with greed as he clutched onto the Huangjing, not willing to let go. Turning his head, he noticed many types of herbal medicines in the pile and gasped in surprise!

"A century-old He Shou Wu! Top-quality Gastrodia... This is... astounding."

Each one was a good item, each a top-quality piece. Their effectiveness was clearly much stronger than ordinary medicinal ingredients.

It made sense that only the best would catch Su Pan’er’s discerning eye.

It’s good that he’s satisfied!

Su Pan’er nodded with a relaxed smile on her face, "So, Old Xue..."

Old Xue looked up out of curiosity, and upon seeing Su Pan’er’s smiling face, he suddenly smacked his forehead.

"Oh my! How forgetful I am when I see these good medicinal ingredients, completely forgetting the matter at hand."

He quickly put down the herbal ingredients and gestured to Lui Muyi to hand over the money bag he was holding, "These herbs have an ample age, we’ll price the Huangjing at ten taels each as we previously discussed. The century-old He Shou Wu will be twelve taels each, and the top-quality Gastrodia fifteen taels each. How about it?"

These words were music to Su Pan’er’s ears!

Smack!

She slapped her palm on the table, suddenly feeling all relaxed!

"Old Xue, you’re straightforward! However, for these common herbs, just pay according to the market price. As the junior, I can’t undercut you."

"You don’t have to worry about me, ugly girl. I won’t be taken advantage of!"

Old Xue’s eyes sparkled as he took a deep look at Su Pan’er. He laughed heartily, "I’m only following King Yan Zhao’s principle of ’more gold for more horse power’. I hope you will be able to gather more precious herbs for me!"

This girl was neither too humble nor arrogant, and not greedy either.

Not bad, not bad!

It looked like she had quite a knack for identifying medicinal ingredients.

What a pity that she is a girl.

Otherwise, he might have taken her as a disciple and taught her carefully.

"What a great statement - more gold for more horse power! Old Xue, rest assured, as long as you still want them, I will bring more good herbs to you the next time! I will do as I say!"

Su Pan’er took the eighty taels of silver, agreed wholeheartedly, and was so thrilled that her eyes narrowed down to slits!
