The person who spoke was a man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. He was Tang Yao's henchman, named Tang Si. Lu Chen had some impression of this person. Back then, when he clashed with Tang Yao, it was because of his contribution.
"He is Lu Chen?"
"The Young Master Lu Family who was seriously injured and dying by Tang Yao?"
"This is going to be a good show."
… ….
Upon seeing this scene, many people in the surroundings turned their attention over.
Lu Chen was silent. He could tell that these people were here to cause trouble.
"Why aren't you daring to speak?"
"Did our young master beat you to a fool?"
"Haha, Young Master Lu Family has turned into a fool."
"Your injuries healed quite quickly."
Tang Yao stared at Lu Chen with disdain in his eyes. His tone was full of ridicule.
No matter how his servants mocked him, he did not stop them. Two years ago, everyone only knew of the fame of Lu Family Young Master's genius. A few days ago, he finally found a chance to lure Lu Chen into a trap and ruthlessly defeated him in front of everyone in the Blue Cloud City, stepping on the name of the former genius beneath his feet.
In Tang Yao's heart, Lu Chen was simply unworthy of his reputation. Not to mention that his martial soul had been crippled, his cultivation had regressed. He probably didn't have the capability to conduct an interview before.
"Where are the medicinal herbs?"
Lu Chen did not plan to pay any attention to the opposite party, as it was not the right time to start a conflict with him now.
"The ingredients you need are all on the second floor. Someone on the top floor is in charge."
"I want to serve Young Master Tang, you go up yourself."
The young servant didn't even turn his head around. After knowing that Lu Chen was Lu Family's good-for-nothing young master, his attitude became even more indifferent.
"Halt."
"Did our Young Master let you go?"
"Tang Si." Suddenly, Tang Yao opened his mouth and spoke. He stared at Lu Chen and said with a smile that was not a smile, "Since Young Master Lu wants to buy some medicinal herbs, then let's accompany him and take a look."
"Young Master, you intend to …" Tang Si was struck with inspiration and suddenly understood the meaning behind his young master's words. He turned around and asked the waiter in an unfriendly tone, "What medicinal ingredients did he want to buy just now?"
"Fire Phoenix Grass, Black Ganoderma, Verdant Wood Flower …" The waiter showed a respectful expression as he reported Lu Chen's purchase of the herbs.
"What does he want?" Tang Yao frowned slightly. He thought that Lu Chen wanted to purchase some nourishing materials to work hard, but instead got himself a bunch of weird things.
"Young Master Tang, I'm not too sure either. Fire Phoenix Grass and Black Ganoderma are toxic. Unless we use a special method to neutralize these medicinal herbs, ordinary people will not be able to use these things. "
"Lu Chen, do you think that you're too useless and want to kill yourself with these herbs? "Hahaha..."
When Tang Yao said this, the servants beside him all laughed out loud.
Lu Chen looked calm and ignored him. He walked to the second floor alone.
"If you don't say it, then I'm even more interested."
"Let's go, let's go and see what kind of tricks this young master, Lu Family, is trying to pull." With a faint smile, Tang Yao led the way to the second floor.
"Customer, what can I do for you?" On the second floor, an older waiter came up and asked Lu Chen.
"I want to buy some Fire Phoenix Grass and Black Ganoderma …"
"Please come with me."
Fire Phoenix Grass was placed at the first counter. Its entire body was a fiery red color. This was a type of extremely strong medicinal herb that contained a very strong fire attribute.
There weren't many either. There were only ten of them, and a few of them were of decent quality.
"Give them all to me..."
"Forget it."
"I want five stalks first!"
Suddenly, Lu Chen did not finish his words. Because just one stalk would require thirty Soul Stone, and ten stalks would require three hundred Soul Stone. Consuming one third of it in one go, the remaining Black Ganoderma and four supplementary ingredients would be of considerable value, so Xiao Yun was worried that the Soul Stone might not be enough.
"Then I'll wrap it up for you." According to Lu Chen's instructions, the old waiter prepared to wrap five of the best quality herbs.
"Wait!"
Just as the old waiter was about to make a move, he was interrupted by a rough voice.
"So it's Young Master Tang."
"May I know what kind of medicinal ingredients you wish to purchase?"
"Our Young Master has taken a fancy to the items in your hands."
"If Young Master Tang needs Fire Phoenix Grass, you can buy another five."
"No."
"That's what our young master has his eyes on."
"Young Master Tang, our store emphasizes on service quality. This customer came first, so we should let him buy first. " This old waiter was neither servile nor overbearing, he was clearly someone who had seen great scenes unfold before.
"I understand the rules of Medicine House." At this time, Tang Yao laughed and said lightly: "I want all of these herbs, ten Soul Stone s for each stalk."
"But …"
"Twenty Soul Stone s each."
The old servant was in a bit of a dilemma, but business was all about profit. Each Fire Phoenix Grass was only thirty Soul Stone, and now Tang Yao was willing to sell them at fifty apiece, there was no reason why he should not sell them to him.
"I want three of each sixty Soul Stone." Lu Chen frowned and said.
"Your Lu Family is truly rich and imposing, each plant has sixty Soul Stone." Tang Yao smiled and said lightly.
"Since you like it so much, I'll grant your wish."
"Young master is smart after all. The Fire Phoenix Prairie is only worth thirty Soul Stone each. Now that it has doubled in size, it is indeed a waste of Lu Family.
"Young Master, I see that this piece of trash has been beaten silly by you."
… ….
They didn't try to cover up their ridicule, but Lu Chen's expression was calm. He just glanced at her indifferently and didn't pay much attention to it. These people were just jumping clowns. It was not because they were afraid of them today, but because their Lu Family were in a difficult situation right now and they did not want to bring more trouble to their parents.
"Wrap it up for me."
"This …"
The old waiter felt somewhat guilty and could not help but sympathize with Lu Chen. He did not know how Lu Chen offended Tang Yao and the others and thus was targeted.
Lu Chen didn't bother with them and followed the old waiter to the counter of the Black Ganoderma. Just now, he had spent one hundred and eighty pieces of Soul Stone to purchase three Fire Phoenix Grasses, and there were also more than eight hundred Soul Stone s below them. The price of Black Ganoderma may not be as high as Fire Phoenix Grass, but it requires twenty Soul Stone for each stalk.
"We want the Black Ganoderma as well."
"Our Young Master Tang is willing to offer thirty Soul Stone."
Tang Si said in a weird tone as he stared at Lu Chen with a provocative expression.
"I'll give you forty Soul Stone."
"Other than the Fire Phoenix Grass, I do not need the rest of the ingredients. Since you want them, I do not mind giving them to you. Even if there is none here, you can buy them from other shops." Seeing that they were getting closer, Lu Chen said with a smile.
"You're a waste of Lu Family, stop acting this way."
"Are you just going to trick us?"
"That's the best way to buy medicinal herbs, isn't it?" Without waiting for Tang Yao to speak, Tang Si snorted.
"These medicinal herbs are unable to raise my strength, much less heal my injuries. Do you think I need to deceive you? "
With a faint smile, Lu Chen did not explain any further. He had already put down the Smoke Bomb, at least so that these fellows wouldn't dare to be too impudent.
"Young Master, you must not trust him."
"He must have said that on purpose."
"Shut up."
Tang Yao frowned and somewhat believed Lu Chen's words. The attendant also said that these medicinal herbs weren't very useful. If he blindly raised the price too much, what if Lu Chen didn't follow up! Although Soul Stone were useless to him, buying something like chicken ribs for no reason made him lose a lot of face if word of it spread.
As an arrogant and conceited person, he naturally didn't want to lose his tongue over such a small matter.
"Lu Chen, you don't have to waste your time."
"As long as you want it, I won't let you have it easily." Tang Yao joked after a moment of silence.
"How about this, Tang Si and the others are all my dogs."
"As long as you defeat them, I will no longer make things difficult for you."
"But if you lose, how about you slip under my crotch in front of everyone?"
"Not interested." Lu Chen shook his head and rejected her directly. These people were deliberately looking for trouble, waiting for an opportunity to show off.
