Chapter 2858 - Go Shopping
Leng Hua was taken aback when he heard this and asked, “So, what do they accept?”
“Rock crystals.” Feng Jiu pursed her lips and smiled as she tossed a cosmos sack to him from space, saying, “Take it.”
“Yes.”
Leng Hua’s mind probed into the sack and discovered a bag of glittering rock crystals. When he realised they didn’t accept gold coins but only rock crystals, he couldn’t help but feel pain in his flesh. Rock crystals were worth far more than gold coins.
He returned after paying the bill with the crystal stone to see Fan Lin, Dufan and Bai Qingcheng approaching.
“Leng Hua, Master asked us to go shopping.”
“Alright.” Leng Hua responded, went to tell Feng Jiu and the others, and then departed the restaurant with a group of people.
“Leng Shuang, give me Hao’er.” Feng Jiu said. After telling the waiter to clear the bowls and chopsticks on the table, she asked Leng Shuang to bring the child to her.
“Yes.” Leng Shuang answered, brought the child to her, and informed, “Little Master just finished a bowl of rice paste.”
“When we get to the forest, we can eat anything, but Hao’er still has to eat rice paste. We’ll need to prepare more of these just in case he runs out of food.” Feng Jiu said, teasing the child.
“I just asked Qingcheng to buy extra,” Leng Shuang explained.
“That’s fine.” She nodded.
At another location, Fan Lin suggested, “Let’s go and have a look at some medicinal materials. Since we are away from home, we must therefore prepare some common medicinal items. Master just stated that because there are so many medicinal resources here, the pricing is relatively low. Let’s just get more to prepare for the unexpected.”
“Alright.” Several of them responded. After making inquiries, they arrived at the city’s largest medicinal materials trading house.
Despite being close subordinates to Feng Jiu, they each dressed in a way that expressed their individuality. They were not dressed uniformly, although they were all dressed in high-quality fabrics. Additionally, their temperaments and looks were outstanding. As they walked together, it was inevitable that people would notice them.
As soon as several of them walked into the trading house, a medicine boy came over and asked, “Young Masters, what would you like? We are the biggest medicinal materials trading house in the city and we have the widest selection of herbs.”
“We’ll just look around first. We’ll let you take it once we know what we want.” Fan Lin said. First, he would look inside to see if there were any herbs he needed.
“Yes, please tell me if you need anything.” The medicine boy, who stayed beside them, replied.
“Fan Lin, get some snake, bug, rat, and ant repellents. We don’t have much of those left.” Du Fan spoke as he fanned the fan in his hand.
“Young Master, we have well-blended repellents for snakes, insects, rats, and ants.” The medicine boy informed.
Fan Lin shook his head. “No, give me the raw herbs; I’ll blend them myself when I get back.”
Hearing this, the medicine boy was surprised for a moment before responding quickly, “Alright, just a moment. I’m going to get some fresh herbs for Young Master straight away.”
The medicine boy took out the raw herbs from inside. These materials had to be ground and refined by hand. Because the finished product would be too expensive at their destination, many people would buy them directly rather than buy them back and grind them themselves.
“Young Master, could you please look and see if these are enough?” The medicine boy went to the counter and showed Fan Lin a small amount of the herbs he had picked.
Fan Lin looked at them carefully and finally said, “Give me one more, and then bring me some more Great Ambition Grass, Three Leaf Rattan Vine, and Octagonal Radish.”
